If you don't send your project now, you sure can't blame the shoes.
- Lined synthetic uppers keep stretch to a minimum
- Aggressive down-turned toes add performance for the steepest climbs
- Stealth HF rubber sticks the the smallest holds and the worst smears

If you look closely you can see the heel colapsing when i heel hook. This just cause the heel doesnt fit my foot well so there is a huge bubble at the bottom of my heel.
Great shoe not the best fit for me

- Fit: True to size
This shoe is great. It toe hooks better then i expected and i love the shoe itself and still may by another pair later. My only complaint on this shoe is the heel. I boulder a lot and i seem to heel hook more then most people but i cannot get this heel to fit me. I think i got it a bit to big cause i new they wouldnt stretch but i cant get this heel to sink in on me. I think la sportiva fits a bit better for me but this is a great shoe. If 5.10 fits your foot then this is probably the best shoe on the market. It is light and edges surprising well for as soft as it is. Also the lining on the inside makes it pretty comfortable. My only complaint is the straps on the heel of the shoe. It is the same for every 5.1o shoe, they are all flemsy and i have seen many break.
Amazing but not for me

These shoes are everything I could have asked for for a down-turned shoe, but not for my feet. I returned them to backcountry (thank you BC for your awesome return policy) after 2 months. They don't stretch at all, they might conform a little but little to no stretch.
The shoe acts exactly as advertised, amazing toeing and edging accompanied by the perfect heel cup and rubber to protect while toe-hooking as well. made for overhung bouldering etc. But of course they don't tell you backstepping in these in poor and smearing is impossible (not a big deal).
Do not downsize on these shoes, like I said they do not stretch. And do not get these for your first downturned aggressive shoe IMPORTANT this is an advanced shoe, treat it as such.
in conclusion the shoe is amazing, well done five.Ten, works for some people but not others.
an addition i just saw a dude wearing these several sizes too big while top roping the other day... hey what ever works for you.

Member since
just got these, first pair of aggressive down-turned shoe. Anyways they slip on and off nicely but if I try to walk, I walk with a bowed foot and I have trouble standing on my toes on the wall because it doesn't flex much. got any suggestions for breaking them in? P.S. size to regular street shoe
Great though! everything I wanted out of a shoe!
Emerson Takahashi
Member since
I have a pair of the Dragons too, and they are definitely not the most comfortable shoes out of the box. The aggressive camber of the shoe will prevent your foot from flexing a lot, so you shouldn't really expect a "comfortable" fit. But while they won't flex much for walking or hanging out, you'll get a ton of power in your toe which is great for steep routes.
I typically slip these on for a few burns on my project, then take them back off while I'm not climbing.
The best way to break them in is to climb in them! I though the rubber was a little thick at first, so I just wore them in the gym for a little bit while the sole softened up.
Awesome shoes.
Member since
love these shoes, you just have to make sure they fit your shape of foot. works for some and not for others

I hate this shoe. Not only do they size differently than almost every other shoe company on the market, but this shoe fell apart after a VERY short amount of time.
I don't buy into the hype of 5.10 anymore and can assure you I'll never buy another pair after dealing with their customer service department. Absolute waste of time and money.
5.10=cheap hype.
five ten kills it
Member since
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've been climbing (mostly bouldering) in these shoes for about 3 months now. Before getting them I was in an evolv shaman. The difference was huge. the shamans felt like putting my feet in a box compared to the dragons. The rubber is sensitive and flexible making the shoe perform decently even on short vertical climbs rather than just over hangs. The rubber is the stickiest on the market and the toe is downturned just enough. You can pull with your toes amazingly on over hangs and generate tremendous power from them. comfort is what you'd expect from a downturned shoe. They are very painful at first, but conform to your feet after a few sessions. They're also great outside. If I had to pick a few cons, it would have to be the heel. It might just be the shape of my heel but there's a dead spot for me. Although not a con for me, some people may find the lace system as a burden.
For size, I went exact to street shoe size. You could probably go a half size smaller if you have a narrower foot but if it's wider go with street shoe size.
Durability is surprisingly good for a shoe with such sticky rubber. I feel like the loops to pull on the shoe will tear before the rubber does.
Overall, amazingly powerful shoe with sticky rubber. Fight through the pain, and you won't regret it.

- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Haven't tried them too much out yet, and I'll of course update once I test them out a little more.
To start out, I have a pretty wide foot, and my toes don't come to much of a point(like in La Sportiva shoes)
I've owned a pair of Sportiva Cobras in a 38.5, and their toe box is just not for me. 5.10 saved my feet with the Hornet, and now it's time to get something for more steep climbing!
I wear an 8.5-9 size shoe, and went with the 8.5 in the Dragons.
I honestly expected it to be worse feeling on my feet, but to my surprise, they fit like a glove(albeit a very tight fitting one)
There's little to no dead space in the shoe, and my toes are against the end, but not curled up.
To break it down-
Street shoe: 8.5 - 9
5.10 Hornet: 9
5.10 Dragon: 8.5
La Sportiva Cobra: 38.5
I highly suggest trying them on at a store before buying them online. They fit different on different people, so it's always hard to tell which size to get.
THANKFULLY, backcountry has an awesome return policy and will totally help you throughout the exchange process

Thanks a lot for size chart!
Power and Precision
Daniel Hupp
Member since
I haven't had these shoes for long (1 month, maybe), but I can already tell that these are the most powerful shoes I've worn. The asymmetry and gnarly downturn throws all of that power into your toe, allowing you to be spot on with foot placement. The heel is absolutely bomber (hooks and sticks on everything). Performance shoe till the very end.
There aren't very many downsides to this shoe, in my opinion, but it is definitely a painful experience. It takes a decent amount of climbing to break them in, and it hurts all the way through that process. If you can push through the pain, the shoe softens up and doesn't feel quite as painful.
The lace system is also somewhat annoying. After wearing the Miura laceups for two years, the Dragon lace system is a pain to fumble with. The laces themselves are tough to handle, and they don't snug up the shoe around the contours of your foot as well as the Miura does.
Looking past these minor gripes, I can say that the dragons are a super high-performance shoe, and that I am extremely pleased with my purchase.

Sizing is consistent with street shoe size, in my experience. 10.5 street shoe, 10.5 dragon.

Member since
My street shoe size is 10. I own a pair of size 9 dragons and they are rediculously painful. But, when I tried on a pair of size 8 solutions they felt only snug... Anyone else have wierd sizing issues? At first I heard the solutions were the worst as far as breaking in goes. Maybe my feet just fit them super well...?
Thomas Ogasawara

Solutions just size super weirdly/small. I wear a size 8-8.5 (US men's) street shoe, and a 6.5 (men's) Solution.

T.J. Rutter
Member since
How durable is the Stealth HF rubber? I own a pair of the Anasazi Arrowheads and even with Five Ten's ONYX rubber, which is supposed to be very tough and durable, they are loosing their edge very quickly. I dont know if I can resole my arrowheads, and I dont want to have blown 165 dollars for a climbing shoe that will only last me two or three months. My next shoe, maybe the dragon, I hope will hold up better. I usually boulder about three or four times a week and need to know how long these things will last. Compared to my first La Sportiva's with Vibram Ex-s Edge rubber, my five tens are breaking down extremely fast. How long will the HF rubber last in comparisson to Vibram Ex-s grip two, and other rubbers like Stealth C4, Mystique, Science friction from mad rock, and Trax from Evolv. Sorry for all the the questions but only having climbed on two pair of shoes doesn't give me much first hand expiriance.
Arthur Debowski

It really depends on a lot of factors. The first being the simple characteristics of sticky rubber; the stickier the less durable. It also depends on footwork (probably more than anything else), the texture of the holds and walls you are climbing on and how often you are climbing. When I first started climbing I climbed 4-6 days a week and would go through most of my 5.10s in about 4-5 months. Now many years later I usually go through a pair a year and I still climb 3-4 days a week. My softer slipper and really sticky shoes are usually on the 6 month plan but I use them sparingly for problems that I need them for. So the answer is... it depends. I'd say you'll get roughly the same duration as your Arrowheads and maybe a bit more (not much more).

Member since
I previously had a pair of the 5.10 teams in 11.5 US I wore them for a little longer than 3 months and they still were to painful. I am a big fan of the 5.10 rubber and heel. I wear a 9.5 US testarosa and have an 11.5 US Evolv Shaman for my comfy shoe. I was hoping to find a shoe like the testarosa or the Shaman with the big knuckle box and love bump in the foot. However the heel in the La Sportiva is just way to sloppy for my foot. I am thinking that these shoes have a bigger toe box for the knuckle than the 5.10 teams, Any sizing advice with getting these shoes or any advice on another aggressive pair?

Member since
how does the dragon compare to the scarpa vapor v? i know its a broad question but i want a lot of different answers
Angus Bohanon
Member since
The most obvious difference is lace-up vs. velcro. Lace-up gives you a more precise fit, which I love (I use La Sportiva Testarossas), but velcro is easier to get on and off faster. As far as fit, I've generally found 5.10 to be wider than Scarpa or Sportiva, which I don't like because it allows my foot to squish out and that hurts. There's also the issue of the heel. 5.10 used to be famous for awful heel cups, but they've fixed that and now it's just a matter of your foot. Some swear by Scarpa's heel and hate 5.10's, and some are just the opposite. The next major difference is that the Scarpas are a lot stiffer, so your feet won't get as tired, but the thin rubber on the 5.10s gives you a more sensitive feel for the holds. That thin rubber wears out faster, of course, and Stealth is generally softer so you gain stickiness and sacrifice durability. If you'll be mostly on sharp edges and not slopey feet, you'd probably be better served by a stiffer, more durable rubber.
The bottom line is that I always recommend trying them on beforehand. Find any store that has them, if you can, and slip them on. See if you can feel pressure points, feel for dead space in the heel, and so on, then come back and order them here. Or order both in a couple of sizes (which is a lot of money up front) then return the ones you don't want. If you only order one pair in one size, it's a crap shoot.

Excellent shoe with one exception
Member since
As usual the 5.10 rubber is excellent, the toe on these is also awesome, really precise and sensitive I am a 9.5/10 street shoe and I bought a 9 in these. The heel feels slightly shallower than the jet's and is excellent. My only complaint is that they do not toe hook well at all compared to the jet7 team, or solution.
Shoe sizes: I size my shoes as small as I can get my foot into
7.5 Moc
8 Verde
9 Dragon
8 Jet7
39 Solution

Unfortunately this is true, the rubber coverage on the toe is not as ideal as some other bouldering oriented shoes. I will add though that these shoes make up for it with its exceptional over all preformance.
Sick shoes..
Member since
These are amazing bouldering shoes! I wear a 10.5 in street size and 10.5 is the perfect size for me. Hard to wear at first but they break in nice. Never are they comfortable but they climb great. Laces lock your feet in perfectly. I have tried 11's and they feel loose. Sizing these right makes a huge difference. The rubber is great and last well in the gym or outside.
precise and powerful
Alex Budiman
Member since
Really nice shoe with comfortable fabrics and lining. Overall, a moderately narrow shoe with powerful toe and good sensitivity - probably not idea for stuff like slab or cracks but works wonders on steep faces and roofs. Heel fits me very well with no extra space and feels very secure, even with laces untied. Doesn't stretch too much but I still recommend sizing as small as possible. Rubber is super sticky and haven't had any issues with durability. Planning on buying another pair when the time comes.
Wearing five ten dragons in US 8.0 (for reference, i wear 39.0 in sportiva speedsters and cobras; 8.5 in v10(2nd gen)) - 9.0 street shoe

Hi KK! I've finally finished her room and she LOVES it! The loft bed makes such a difference, there's so much more space. I love space!
I hope you find some more room for your little one soon. I actually think small houses are nice because it bonds the family together. We all know where everyone is at any moment and we've got no choice but to get along.
So enjoy your small spaces and I'll try and enjoy mine!
Emma, ours is certainly very pokey too. We still have our 7 months old boarding in our room because we are not sure what to do with him. The poor thing, his actual bedroom is my study (I work from home as much as possible) and is full up with bits and pieces. I hope your little one loves her new bed and play room... KK
Oh I wish, KuddlyK! I'm not that funky really. Just loved the pic. My daughter's room is very small, so we're getting a loft bed from a friend this weekend to make a bit of play room for her. What's your house like?
EmmaW, Is that your daughters bedroom? I love it!

A group of construction workers in Wuhan launched an unusual type of protest against unpaid wages by performing a Gangnam Style dance outside the nightclub that they had built.
Doing the viral dance was "...the only way to draw attention to their problems," they were quoted as saying in The Guardian.
Younger workers are more media-savvy and know that they are more likely to succeed if they turned to such forms of publicity, said Geoff Crothall of the Hong-Kong-based China Labour Bulletin, in the report.
Workers who protest normally turn to Chinese microblogging site Weibo and "make sure people are aware of the fact they are going to do this performance and get the local media on board," Crothwall was quoted as saying in the report.
Unpaid labour is a common and growing occurrence in the construction industry, Crothall elaborated in the article. A single lump sum payment of a year's wages is given only at the end of the year. The wages have to pass through layers of subcontractors before it even reaches them, if any at all.
In some cases, bosses run away due to financial problems and leave workers with zero pay, the article said.

I hope you crushed his heart into a million little pieces and every one of those pieces was kinetically charged and exploded inside him and he then realized the error of his ways.

Welcome to the Sales, Authenticity & Success Mastermind, specifically designed to propel you and your business to a whole new level. From priceless gems of insider business knowledge to exclusive networking opportunities, from structured masterminds to personal one-on-one coaching, it's about living your blessing, thinking big and making the unique difference you were put here to make while being generously compensated for it.
The Sassy Mastermind is for the heart-centered entrepreneur looking for the perfect combination of business strategy, accountability and peer support all on a foundation of attention to spiritual development and continued personal growth.
Levels of Mentorship
The Sales, Authenticity & Success Mastermind features two prestigious tiers of participation:
The PLATINUM tier was created for entrepreneurs who are still in early growth stages – whether they have an existing business or are still in start up. Platinum offers proven business strategies designed to transform a business from the traditional hours-for-dollars model to one that generates a leveraged stream of income based on the proven sales strategies developed by me, the founder, Lisa Sasevich. You have monthly training and Q&A calls with me, plus Small Group Mastermind Coaching calls lead by Your Sassy Call Facilitator.
DIAMOND is for fast-moving high achievers – those who have already reached a six-figure income and are ready to leap to a seven-figure business with accelerated speed. This ultra exclusive group receives the ultimate in personalized attention, strategic business planning and one-on-one mentorship directly from Lisa Sasevich.
"Made my whole income from last year in
first 4 months of this year."
"It's one of the best decisions I've ever made and one that I'd recommend every time to anyone else who wants to add rocket fuel to their progress and shake themselves up like never before.
Lisa's work, her energy and her commitment to you and your business success is astonishing. I've taken what Lisa teaches, implemented it and transformed my life AND my business from the word 'go'. Since finding Lisa's work, apart from creating a fully leveraged plan for my business, I've written and published a book on my specialty, introduced University Masterclasses into my business and made my whole income from last year in the first 4 months of this year - Oh, and I've had an absolute blast at the same time!"

"I am thrilled with the Sassy mastermind program—it has given me the ability to learn and grow"
"I found Lisa through an email recommending her 6figureteleseminar series. After taking that class and listening to her call about the Sassy Mastermind, I knew she was the mentor for me.
Because I live in Europe, I have not been to any live events yet the value, direction, and support from Lisa and the mastermind group has been incredible! I've been able to start a brand new business, using a completely new business model, and am implementing all the systems to build a sustainable, leveraged and profitable company.
I am thrilled with the Sassy mastermind program—it has given me the ability to learn and grow so much and start getting my message into the world to make a huge impact."
Karin Volo
Tough Transition Specialist and Dream Life Mentor
"There is no way to place a value on all the progress I have made in my business."
"At six months into my first year of the Sassy Mastermind, I realize there is no way to place a value on all the progress I have made in my business. To an extent, I thought I knew what I was getting into when I took a deep breath, wrote what felt like a huge check and signed up. What I didn't realize was the intangible value of the program. Phrases like "Planet Sassy" and the "Sassy Campus" that I thought were just cute, actually convey the two most incredible features of the program.
The "Planet" is one populated by the most amazing group of people I have ever seen collected - highly motivated, focused, intelligent, credentialed, talented, creative, hungry, curious, and above all generous. How in the world did we all find each other? Lisa gathered us up and inspired us to collaborate. Passionately. Planet Sassy is a rich body of highly charged human capital, bouncing ideas off of each other, challenging each other while encouraging and warmly celebrating each other.
While the "Sassy Campus" is virtual between events and retreats, it certainly feels collegiate. The education is not only in the training we receive in the program, it is from each other. Best practices, best resources, you name it, you ask for it, you have an answer fast and from all corners of the world. Every new resource that has made a difference in the trajectory of my business is the result of a connection I made through Sassy. It is the norm on the Sassy Campus to see people building businesses, earning incomes, and giving back in ways that nothing else, not even an MBA will prepare you for.
Being in this group is like being able to train with elite athletes. Sassies are making big courageous moves all the time - I am constantly wowed, inspired, energized, and amazed. Lord willing, 2014 is going to be off the hook! I am so grateful to be a part of this group!"

Lubbock County officials have increased security both in and around the courthouse after the Kaufman County district attorney, Mike McLelland and his wife Cynthia were shot to death in their home.
"When something like Kaufman County happens, when a wife is killed, that probably scares me more than anything. It kind of sends shock waves when you have a family member killed like that," said Lubbock County Criminal District Attorney Matt Powell.
The killings occurred nearly two months after Kaufman County assistant prosecutor, Mark Hasse was gunned down outside the Kaufman County Courthouse. And while authorities suspect the killings are a retaliation effort by a white supremacist gang, Powell vows not to let the murderers get to him.
"We're not going to overreact, we're not going to live in fear and we're not going to let these guys dictate to us what we can and can't do."
Powell has seen it all in his over 20 years as a prosecutor. He has had contracts for his death out on him and receives threats on a regular basis. According to Powell, it's all a part of the job, but he didn't realize just what he was in for when he chose this career.
"When I was a baby prosecutor, I don't think there was ever a point that I thought, 'Gosh, this is going to be a dangerous profession,'" he said.
Powell says he worries most for his family members who he says were forced into this life and adds that regardless of the distance from Lubbock to Kaufman County, the deaths do have an impact.
"I don't know if it's business as usual because anytime something like that happens, I think there is a little bit more heightened degree of concern."
Lt. Bryan Taylor with the Lubbock County Sheriff's Office says it's a number one priority for the Sheriff's Department to protect those who fight for justice and he says they are working with county employees to make sure they stay safe.
"Our main emphasis is trying to encourage the staff members inside the courthouse to be a little more aware of their surroundings," he said. "Just to gain entry into the courthouse you have to go through an extensive screening process and we feel that is very effective."
Lt. Taylor added that as technology evolves, improvements are constantly made to courthouse security. Taylor says, if necessary, sheriff's deputies may even escort members of the DA's office to and from work.

Slight issue with Blog 0.1 with SS 2.3. Certain posts do not take pagebreaks. Fixable when in the Admin panel.
Seems the posting part of the Blog 0.1 module will "forget" the paragraphs when placing on the site, but the pagebreaks themselves are still in the post, so when you go to edit it in the standard page, you see where the pagebreaks are. If you post within the Admin panel, everything is fine.
I hope this type of fix gets included in Blog 0.2, as quite frankly, that's just weird.

To do the cool things, you have to be logged in first.
Good work. You have talent.
That mean a lot. Thank you.
I don't think Chris Johnson is fighting for the 15th spot. I think he is the #10 or 11 spot and others must worry about their spot.
When it comes to the rotation I agree. But he's fighting for the last spot on the roster with Earl Barron because they both have partially guaranteed contracts and you cant keep both unless you open up anpther roster spot. the big men do rotate more on this team because of age and injury so he will be 10 or 11 but either CJ or EB is getting that 10 or 11 spot and the other is sent packing. Thays why I said 15
Great stuff here. To add to your point about conditioning, I think MOST teams don't hit their conditioning stride until December during a normal season. If I had to guess, I'd think Nate's change on the practice courts to running ALL the time and shortening the shot clock will pay off sooner rather than later. Choosing to have a running offense is a HUGE commitment. It'll be interesting to see how the decision plays out.Thanks for the blog!
Absolutely. But if you look around the NBA at guys right now there is a group that seem primed to start off the season well. For example, Kevin Love who hired a personal chef and lost 20 Pounds while working out in the offseason. He is probably better prepared for the season and schedule than most. I do agree though.

Weekend Meditation: The Romantic Notion of a Pocketknife
"I was raised, you see, in a tradition to which it was considered improper for a man to be without a knife on his person … My grandfather had a number of dicta, all of them which were aimed at delineating how a gentleman should comport himself. One of them was: No gentleman should ever be without a pocketknife. You would have to have known him to appreciate the full paradoxically of the statement. He had the most elegant manners of any man I have ever met, but he was ready for anything — fish or cut bait, figuratively or literally — at a moment's notice. I give you one more of his dicta to help you take full measure of the man: A gentleman should be able to prepare a light supper without removing his jacket. Obviously, you would have loved him."
— Robert Farrar Capon
I suppose in this day and age, a man who always has a pocketknife on his person would be a prime target for Homeland Security. Still, I can't help but be inspired by the simplicity and readiness of this image of a well-mannered man and his pocketknife cooking up a simple supper. There's a tugging sense of reassurance, a nostalgia almost, for a time when such skills and comportment could be used to measure a life and find it good.
Modern times allow me to not have to rely on a man to produce the knife or the skills, so I lose a few hours to the interwebs, browsing pictures of lovely pocketknives. From the beautiful, handmade vintage models to the crisp, modern stainless steel army types, they call to me. I imagine myself wandering the fields, knife in hand, cutting stalks of wild fennel and laying them across the beach fire to create an impromptu grill on which to cook a freshly caught and pocketknife-gutted fish. I wipe the blade on my jeans, leaving behind a trail of fish guts, and slice up some foraged wild plums for dessert. When I'm finished, I plunge it into the cork and open another bottle of hard cider.
In my real life, I keep cans of tunafish and a hidden stash of cash in my cupboard, and jugs of water and Lara Bars in my earthquake kit. There are locks on my doors and passwords on my computer, all in the service of adverting disaster. But this notion of carrying a pocketknife and the skills to catch and gut a fish, or chop up some roadside herbs, is far more compelling. Somehow it seems more tangible, more connected to what it means to be alive and the imperative to feed the belly. I know that if (when!) The Big One hits the Bay Area, the tangibleness of my Lara Bars will be foremost. But I suspect that the pocketknife might come in handy, too.
And while I might be all rugged and independent with my fennel fronds and fish guts, the truth is this pocketknife in the hands of a suitor is a pretty sexy notion. After all, who in their right mind would turn away an elegant, well-dressed soul, especially when they're willing to prepare a light supper using only a pocketknife and their bare hands? Not me. No sir.

I had an unusual childhood and its morphed into an interesting adult life so far. One of my things is I always have at least one knife on me. Our society today looks at that as threatening and almost criminal action and it's very sad and irritating.
Love this. My father always had one as well, and when I was about 7 or 8 she bought me a Barlow knife, which I still have somewhere. I think he thought it was a good idea for a lady as well ;-))
I carry a tiny Swiss Army penknife with me everywhere but through TSA. I think it's small enough to qualify for flights, but I don't want to risk losing it.
Lots of dumb mistakes in my post above, but I'm sleepy.
My dad always has a knife on him. It is more of a utility knife, to cut string, strip electrical wire or help opening an overly-taped present. My grandpa did too. I think my brother has carried on that tradition as well.
I always know if I need something cut when I am around my family I only have to say "can I have your knife" and one will be presented to me. :)
"I suppose in this day and age, a man who always has a pocketknife on his person would be a prime target for Homeland Security."
This reminds me of an incident in Japan in the recent past. A man in his 70's was visiting his son in Japan and he went to a police kiosk to ask for directions. They asked him if he had a knife and he said yes and willingly showed them his pocket knife. They arrested him and detained him for 10 days because the Japanese have been paranoid about knives since there has been a rash of mass stabbings over the past year or so.
Though all of the stabbings were carried out by Japanese people, they inspect foreigners more so than natives because the police think it's okay to harass anyone who doesn't look Japanese. They've harassed me as well - accused me of stealing the bicycle I was riding because I didn't happen to have the receipt for it on me at the time - who carries a receipt for their bike around with them every time they leave the house?!
Anyway, homeland security has nothing on the Japanese, who arrest 70-something-year-old tourists for making the mistake of having a 4" pocket knife and not knowing that the Japanese have no laws to protect people from unlawful search and seizure, no writ of habeas corpus, and no right to an attorney if you are arrested (and that they can hold you for 21 days without charges of any kind).
Next time people want to rag on the U.S. for what appear to be draconian regulations, you might want to learn that it can be very much worse in other places.
Charlotte, no knife is small enough to pass TSA regulations. I had that lesson reinforced the hard way when I tried to go through airport security after completely forgetting that I had a little mini-Swiss Army knife in my bag. Needless to say, I no longer own that knife.
I feel the same way about the romanticism of a pocketknife. Unfortunately, I live in an extremely restrictive state when it comes to that sort of thing (you need a concealed carry permit in order to carry pepper spray!), so the Swiss Army knife my uncle gave me for Hanukkah several years ago remains in the house.
Like so many others, memories of my dad always include a pocket knife. Although as a beekeeper his use of the device was less gentlemanly and more practical, he also used it for tasks like pencil sharpening and splinter removal. He had a small whetting stone, which I loved for its smoothness, that he would take out once a week to ensure a sharp blade.
Thanks for the unexpected memories!
I always carry a knife. In my childhood it was a Boy Scout practice, and in my undergrad time it was something upheld by most of my peers (engineering school).
Later, I was surprised to see people surprised (scared?) when I pulled my knife out. It is purely a utility item to me, but I never stop hearing things like "wow!" or "that's a scary knife" or even "what neighborhood did you grow up in?"
Of course, sometimes I have people ask me if I have a knife, and still look surprised... I really don't get it. I do consider it a very important item to have on my person. I use it rather often, and try to keep it sharp and clean so it can be used for anything from food to electrical work (with cleaning in between, of course).
My husband carries a knife at all times except when he's flying...I've never thought of it as particularly dashing or romantic, but now that you mention it it does seem like a holdover from an earlier time! He also carried handkerchiefs and wears work boots every day...so maybe he was just born in the wrong decade!
My dad always carried, and still carries, a pen knife in his pocket. It belonged to his father before him. He carries it as a gentleman would.
My uncle, on the other hand, could gut a fish with his. I remember visiting him and my aunt when I was a teenager, watching in awe/horror as he castrated lambs with his pocket knife, wiped it off on his jeans, and put it back in his pocket. Later that evening, he produced it again to cut into his elk burger, and once again to clean under his fingernails.
I find that I emulate these men in my life, and I carry a pocket knife with me at all times, even though I am neither elegant like my father, nor rugged like my uncle. But there's security it knowing that if I needed to, I could.
I have my late father's knife in my pocket at this moment. It is carbon steel and rather worn and I love it. Reminds me of a Seamus Heaney poem:
Dangerous pavements.
But I face the ice this year
With my father's stick.
from 'Seeing Things' c. 1991
Mt stepfather is a WV hillbilly who was, I kid you not, named after Daniel Boone. He, I, and my two brothers always have a knife. While I was teaching I kept it in the glove compartment in my car, since I couldn't bring it into the building, but now it lives in my bag. It's more of a multitool than just a knife, but I've found that I use the knife way more often than any other feature. It makes me sad that some people are afraid of a utility knife. What has the world come to?
I forgot to mention that the quote is from the book The Supper of the Lamb, an amazing meditation on food and life by a Episcopalian priest, first published in 1969.
I'm a woman, but I usually carry a Swiss army knife, except when I'm traveling by plane. It has knives, scissors, screwdrivers, a corkscrew, and even a tiny flashlight. I love it, it makes me SO happy every time I get to use it!
A man who carries a Swiss army knife? Oh yes.
i suppose the grandfather would never sit down to supper with his baseball cap on his head (in fact, i am certain he did not own such a hideous item) and treated everyone with respect. what a lovely notion; how sad, by contrast, is our world today.
thank you for a charming post.
I remember sitting down to lunch on the college campus, and a woman sitting next to me was complaining no one should bring knives because the school has a no weapon policy, something about how she was a pacifist and she would rather not carry a knife or pepper spray and just Believe she would never get raped than carry things to defend herself. I believe five of us were sitting there, and the rest of us whipped out knives, and started comparing/discussing them. She looked put out, and argued we shouldn't have weapons on campus. I think the rest of us agreed at the table, having a knife on your person just comes in handy. I don't carry a knife on me with the intent to do malicious deeds with it, and I'm sure the rest of the people sitting at the table didn't either. Most of the time I use my knife to cut brownies or apples in half to share with my son.
My favorite quote from Jules Verne's Clipper in the Clouds- "An American who has not a bowie-knife is no longer an American." Something about that sentiment is just so charming to me.
Knives- especially small utility knives - are just so darn useful. I have one with a knife, scissors, and a screwdriver on it, and it gets used more often than you would believe.
Humans are tool users. It's worth carrying a bit of that history around in your pocket.
I once bought a 18th-century-style penknife at a reenactment and used to use it quite a bit - for cutting sticks and apples and just to have, just in case. But now I can't seem to find it and this article reminded me of this! I'll have to go search for it now. Or maybe just buy a newer, sleeker, vintage-styled one. :)
Having a pocket knife always on you is like always having pieces of string or a flashlight or tape somewhere nearby. You never know when you're going to have to cut, tie, illuminate, or fix something!
I loved this post. My father still carries a small knife similar to the one in the picture with him at all times (except the airport). It's a beautiful antique that used to belong to his father and has a mother of pearl handle. He uses it for cutting things in the woods or for cutting an apple up on a car trip, like a gentleman as many described. It's funny that this post should appear because my husband and I have been talking about this subject on and off for the past several months and he recently bought a sleek stainless steal knife and carries it with him (today he used it to cut a pumpkin off the vine). I'm now on the lookout for my own, only I want an antique one like my dad's.
what a lovely post, and so true. My Dad and grandpa, as do almost all my uncles, cousins and brothers carry pocket knives. Some with polished wooden handles, other steel/graphite. It's just plain handy. and I'll admit, as a girl I've carried the mini-swiss army knife in my purse for years. Super handy that knife, sissors, nail file, tweezer device. (though the tooth pick is long gone)
I've carried the same well-worn and well-loved pocket knife for almost 20 years (I'm female). I get twitchy when it's not with me (such as when I travel by plane--I don't check any luggage)! In the last 24 hours I've used it to dig a carrot out of the ground, open a box, cut packaging tape, split a keyring to add a key, remove a sliver, and cut an apple in half (after "cleaning" it with spit). If I ever get married, the guy will absolutely HAVE to be a pocket knife believer...
Love Robert Farrar Capon, and this particular book--one of my favorites! Thanks for pulling out this particular gem of a quote. Reminds me I've been meaning to get a nice knife for myself.
I was in college before I encountered a man without a knife. I was completely baffled. In my family, a man without a knife is like a man without a...uh, other basic equipment. Anachronistic, yes. Class & regional, too. But handy!
My dad grew up in a similar era and gave me a very small (rather benign) Swiss Army knife when I was about 7. I was kind of shocked that he'd trust me with such a thing, but he taught me to use it and I felt really strong and capable carrying it around. I felt so grown up tromping around the woods with him, helping to cut branches fallen in the walking path or strip wood into small twigs for a fire. Much later, probably for Christmas around age 20, he gave me a more serious and multi-faceted Leatherman knife. I still use it, all the time. I think it's important to have a reverence for the pocketknife, which is always useful, and a respect for the traditions tied to it.
dude, that apple has seen better DAYS!
I carry a small knife with me in my bag wherever I take it, and it has been handy on a number of occasions. It's only a 3" blade, which is the maximum permitted under UK law, but that's all you need.
I don't understand why people think they're dangerous. When it comes down to it, anything can be used as a weapon. I have on me now a set of keys, a belt, a decent pen, a tie, and a pair of good leather shoes. I could quite conceivably kill a person with any of these things, or my bare hands even! I choose not to use these to cause harm, and by carrying a knife, I am no more likely to assault someone!
Can anyone tell me what the brand of the pictured pocketknife is? When my father passed away last year, the one thing of his I wanted to keep was his pocketknife, which he had carried for as long as I remember. It has the same crown logo as the knife in the picture, but with a metal handle.
What he used it for - sharpening pencils, cleaning his nails, taking cuttings of interesting plants, shredding wood for tinder, removing splinters, cutting ties on strawbales, slicing cheese...
helianthemum- looks like a robeson crown knife to me?
Oh nevermind.
Really it is rather beautiful.
Thank you! I checked the blade and it's definitely an Imperial. It looks a lot like this one:
Meanwhile, I have my 20-year-old Victorinox "Scientist" model in my pocket. The magnifying glass isn't much use but it amuses me.

One person has been arrested and others are being sought in connection with the fatal shooting of a man during an altercation between two groups in late July.
Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said 29-year-old Kevin Lewis has been
charged with murder. Investigators are still looking for several others who
were involved in the melee. According to investigators, Lewis is being
Lewis is accused of killing 25-year-old Howard J. Nemley in
the parking lot of Deer Park Apartments on July 24. A spokesperson for the
sheriff's department told WIS Nemley was holding his 3-year-old child at the
time of the shooting. That information was given to us in error, said the
sheriff's department Thursday. The victim's daughter was nearby at the time of
the shooting. She was not injured.
Lott said Nemley and a friend, Eric Salley, were outside
that night when two groups of juveniles began arguing. Salley began provoking
the juveniles to fight each other, the sheriff said.
A mother of one of the juveniles then got involved in the argument and
called her boyfriend's brother, later identified as Kevin Lewis.
When Lewis and several others showed up at the apartment complex parking
lot, the situation eroded, according to Lott.
"Mr. Lewis gathered up multiple people, they arrived at the
scene," said Lott. "Mr. Salley was severely beaten."
Howard Nemley was then shot, and once on the ground shot again. Lott says his three year old was by his side. Originally it was reported the man was a bystander and had nothing to do with the gang violence, the sheriff wanted to clear that up.
"That's not true," said Lott. "He wasn't involved in the initial confrontation, but he was interjected into it. He was shot and it wasn't an accidental shooting."
The group beat Salley and shot Nemley and then fired again as he was running away, Lott said. Nemley was pronounced dead when he got to the hospital.
"Mr. Lewis is not cooperating with us, so we are asking for the
public's help in helping to identify the additional people there," said Lott
"There is a war now that's going on, and it's the Richland County Sheriff's Department, and the community, against the gangs. We're not going to let the gangs win. We're not going to let the gangs take over our community."
The sheriff's department is looking for the other people who were with Lewis
when they got to the apartment complex. Lott said Lewis arrived in a gold GMC
Denali and others rode in a green SUV. Surveillance images show Lewis and
another man at the AM PM Food Mart just before the altercation.
"This is a tragic example of gangs and people getting involved in
situations that should be resolved differently or with law enforcement
interdiction," said Lott. "This could have resulted in innocent
bystanders or people in apartments also being killed and there is absolutely no
excuse for what happened, how this happened or why."
If you know anything about this incident or can identify any of the people
involved in the incident, you are urged to call Crimestoppers at
1-888-CRIME-SC. Your anonymous tip could earn you up to $1000.

A Strange Place0 Reviews
u will have to read also tell me what yall think
I had just turned to walk out the door when i hear a noise on the top deck.
I ran up the stairs and slowly walked out onto the deck and began to look around noticing nothing was there I turn to go back down the stairs whan i hear it again. So I began to to turn around and was suprised when it was right behind me it then grabs me and slamed me on the deck and slid me all the way to the other side of the boat slamming me into the wall knocking me out cold.
When I awake I have no idea where i was at and I relized I had been captured but for what purpose I don't know.
Mean while back at the boat Sooki, Mirika, Chirka are just now getting on the boat and right away they noticed a struggle. So they take off looking on the boat for anything and anybody. As they come up on Kileo who is still asleep they shake her and wake her up. They then ask her what is her name and how did she get there. She then says her name is Kileo and Nico brought her there and said that she could sleep there in that bed.
Then all of a sudden Sooki burst into the room screamin where is Nico. Then Sooki noticing the look on everyone's face then hits the floor crying. Mirika, Chirka then rush to her side to comfort her. After Sooki calmed down they relize the only place to look is in the temple.
In the mean time back at the temple I was confused wondering who had brought me here. But then the door flew open and no one was there so I get up and walk to the door and peek around to see if anybody was there. Just by my luck there it was waiting for me to come out. I turn to go back in but it grabed meand dragged me out and then drug me all the way to this big open area. Thats when i relized where i was at. It was because of the statues of the summonors who had defeated the old sin. I was in the temple...

Apple has begun soliciting developers, inviting them to be among the first participate in the beta release of the next update to OS X Mountain Lion, identified as OS X 10.8.3. Selected number of Mac OS X developers got an email invite on Wednesday to participate in the next Mountain Lion Software Update seed project, "Join us for 10.8.3″. Those who accepted the invitation began gaining access to the pre-release beta builds of OS X 10.8.3 on Thursday.
Releasing it to dev for testing confirms that OS X 10.8.3 is almost ready to ship, but as usual, the company want developers to test their applications and find potential bugs before the software update is released to the public. The company normally seeds pre-release beta builds to developer community to patch things before they get out of control.
In mid-September, Apple publicly released OS X 10.8.2 for Mountain Lion bringing the much anticipated feature – system-wide Facebook integration. It also provided support for several features integrating with iOS 6, such as Passbook passes and iMessage/FaceTime access via phone number, et cetera.
As of right now, no release date for OS X 10.8.3 has been announced and new features for OS X 10.8.3 beta have not been identified. Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.

She's my guilty pleasure. You always think, 'I don't want to play the mean girl, I want to be the nice girl'. But playing the mean girl is so much fun. Obviously, I'm not that way in real life. She's just really cruel and especially if you know people like her, it's fun to put yourself in those shoes. It's really funny. - Sasha Pieterse on playing Alison DiLaurentis
I love Alison and Sasha!!

|A Phase I First-in-Human Trial of Bardoxolone Methyl in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors and Lymphomas.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22634319 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|PURPOSE: Bardoxolone methyl, a novel synthetic triterpenoid and antioxidant inflammation modulator, potently induces Nrf2 and inhibits NF-κB and Janus-activated kinase/STAT signaling. This first-in-human phase I clinical trial aimed to determine the dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and appropriate dose for phase II studies; characterize pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters; and assess antitumor activity.EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Bardoxolone methyl was administered orally once daily for 21 days of a 28-day cycle. An accelerated titration design was employed until a grade 2-related adverse event occurred. A standard 3 + 3 dose escalation was then employed until the MTD was reached. Single dose and steady-state plasma pharmacokinetics of the drug were characterized. Assessment of Nrf2 activation was examined in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by measuring NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1) mRNA levels. Immunohistochemical assessment of markers of inflammation, cell cycle, and apoptosis was carried out on tumor biopsies.RESULTS: The DLTs were grade 3 reversible liver transaminase elevations. The MTD was established as 900 mg/d. A complete tumor response occurred in a mantle cell lymphoma patient, and a partial response was observed in an anaplastic thyroid carcinoma patient. NQO1 mRNA levels increased in PBMCs, and NF-κB and cyclin D1 levels decreased in tumor biopsies. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was also increased.CONCLUSIONS: Bardoxolone methyl was well tolerated with an MTD of 900 mg/d. The increase in eGFR suggests that bardoxolone methyl might be beneficial in chronic kidney disease. Objective tumor responses and pharmacodynamic effects were observed, supporting continued development of other synthetic triterpenoids in cancer. Clin Cancer Res; 18(12); 1-11. ©2012 AACR.

Not too soon to ban fracking
The oil and gas industry promotes the myth of shale gas providing energy security and economic growth, but those claims are based more on hype than fact ("Anti-fracking legislation is premature," March 7). A Food & Water Watch study in 2011 showed that one job claim was exaggerated by 900 percent. Betting our future on the supposed abundance of natural gas — likely about a six-year supply — would simply perpetuate America's destructive dependence on the oil and gas industry.

New York Hang Gliding Lesson
Ellenville, NY
May - early November. Start time is early morning. Typically 8:00am or 9:00am.

Then, it's over to the landing field for ground school. In ground school, you learn to lift the glider, how to hold it and how to move with the glider. After ground school, the only thing left is to do is fly!
The balance of the day is spent getting short, actual solo flights off the training hill.
By the end of the day you will know how to launch, fly & land a Hang Glider at the training hill!

Experience ID:
Is hang gliding safe?
As with any sports, carelessness and irresponsibility can result in serious consequences. However, when approached conservatively, utilizing good judgment, hang gliding is a fun and safe form of weekend recreation.
How do you steer a hang glider?
Hang gliders are controlled by shifting the pilot's weight with respect to the glider. Pilots are suspended from a hang strap connected to the glider's frame. By moving forward and backward and side to side at the end of this hang strap, the pilot alters the center of gravity of the glider. This then causes the glider to pitch or roll in the direction of the pilot's motion and thus allows both speed control and turning.
What is the difference between a hang glider and a paraglider?
A hang glider has a rigid frame maintaining the shape of the wing, with the pilot usually flying in a prone position. The paraglider canopy shape is maintained by its internal air pressure and the pilot is suspended in a sitting or supine position.

"My girlfriend bought this for us for my 22nd birthday and we thought we would experience actual hang gliding but all we experienced was the tutorial and annoying bugs. We were supposed to do tandem hang gliding at a disclosed location but the day before they changed the address to a hang gliding school. When my girlfriend bought this package, it clearly stated that we were supposed to do tandem hang gliding with an instructor and not just learn the basics. We are dissatisfied with the experience and we would like to be compensated. Thank you very much, Etan"

HULK HOGAN Confirms Identity Of Sex Tape Partner, Admits It Was Filmed During Marriage To Ex-Wife LINDA
HULK HOGAN has just confirmed the identity of his mystery sex tape partner… and he admitted that the tape was filmed while he was still married to his ex-wife, LINDA!
Hulk Hogan's sex tape is the hot topic among celebrity gossip websites right now, especially now that it's made its Internet debut. So despite the fact that he's currently threatening to sue all media outlets that publish his sex tape (even if they just publish naked screenshots or short clips), the former wrestler had no problem talking about it during his recent interview with Howard Stern.
During the tell-all, Hulk revealed that the mystery brunette in the video is indeed Heather Clem—the estranged wife of his best friend, DJ Bubba the Love Sponge.
But it wasn't a case of the best friend stealing the wife, because during the interview, the muscle man also revealed that Bubba gave him permission to bed Heather.
Hogan also admitted that at the time the sex tape was made (about six years ago), he was still married to his first wife, Linda.
And finally, since he was apparently in a spill-the-beans kind of mood, Hulk also told Howard that his sexual performance during the taped tryst wasn't exactly his best.
