The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
So this might be overthinking it but here's what I got...
I recently purchased a used 175g DX Valkyrie and I LOVE it, it's the most comfortable, farthest and most controllable long distance driver in my bag. Because it's used (Very used) I'm afraid that if I buy another 175g Dx Valk, that I'll be disappointed with how differently they fly.
I'm wondering if I purchase a lighter weight Valkyrie, in a higher end plastic (maybe Pro so it isn't more stable than I want) it will fly more closely to a beat in Valk of a heavier weight? And stay that way longer (due to the plastic)?
I'm just now exploring the effect that weights have in terms of disc flight, I've always gone for 170-175 on all my discs thinking anything less was too light, and now I'm starting to think I might have set myself up for failure (or at least set myself up to fight the disc stability more than I would have to otherwise)
Thanks in advance!! :D

Beat drivers are the magic ones. A ligher driver will come close, but wont be the same. My bag is full of used, beat up discs. Used discs suit my game better. Other players depend on stability. This is the beauty of disc golf, to each his own.
I like to break in Star and Champ plastic. DX and Pro feel great, but will become so beat you cant use them. Your higher end plastic could stay with your for years. Of course there are a lot of variable that play into how fast your discs will break in. There is nothing wrong with buying or trading for used discs. The challenge is to break in a disc before you lose it!
Well lighter disc will do what you want, but are going to be effected by the wind more. I still throw 150g Sidewinders for wooded courses when I need something straight to slight anhyzer.
I would buy a couple dx valks and find the nearest tree. Give them a few good drives into the tree (not all out hard as you can) and then give them a toss and see how they fly. Repeat as necessary until it reaches the stability you want.
Now I would aslo suggest you work with a brand new one, as your game grows you will build into the disc.
I started playing with a DX Beast as my driver.. after a short time and A LOT of learning by hitting things my beast died the death of a DX disc.. I scoured ebay until I found an acceptable used star beast and it was like shaking hands with an old friend.
Just go out and buy yourself about three DX Valkyries and maybe one Star Valkyrie. The DX ones will break in quickly and the Star will break in eventually. I still throw DX plastic but it does need to be replaced from time to time. If you have a few of them then you will have some backup.
There is a legal way to quickly beat in good plastic (better than pro), throw discs on concrete that land softly on their bead, wearing down the bead will under stable a disc faster than tearing up the edges. I'm just sayin'.....
Perfectly said. It wont take long to break in dx plastic. The bad part is they break in nice, then before you know it (like the next day) they're flipping out of control. If you were to take the time to break in a star valkyrie I think you'd be very pleased.
I use both DX and Star TeeBirds. The DX discs are used for straight shots or anhyzer shots, especially after they break in a bit which doesn't take very long (maybe a day or two). My Star TeeBird is used more for long hyzer bombs and I hit a nice ace with mine about a year and a half ago. I haven't had to replace the Star TeeBird but I go through about three to four of the DX variety each year. They are cheaper so even though you have to keep buying DX discs it doesn't cost all that much. I won't stop throwing a DX TeeBird because it does come in very handy at times.
Your instincts are good and your fears are warranted.
No matter the mold, any disc which is perfectly broken in is very difficult to replace or replicate. But any mold which fits well in your hand and performs well for you is worth getting more of. Every run of every disc is going to be at least somewhat different and maybe significantly different when you mix in the variables of weights, colors and plastics. Some of those variations will be useful, some not so much.
Unfortunately there is no exact formula for finding a disc based on your very specific needs. All things being equal a lighter disc will be less stable than a heavier one. But all things are never equal and some lighter discs are more stable than heavier versions. Generally premium plastics will be more overstable than basic plastics but not always.
The only safety is getting backups and using them regularly so you both learn them and break them in. Buying or trading for used versions of your favorite discs may be cheaper and faster than buying new.
There is a real danger in becoming too dependent on a single disc. You cannot let your confidence be centered on an individual disc because sooner or later that disc will be gone but your game will go on.
The other important variable is you. For as long as you keep improving your form and (perhaps) power will improve. Those changes will make discs fly differently. So a disc which is too overstable to be a primary driver today may be perfect next year. As you learn new shots a disc which gathers dust today may be essential to an overhead or a sidearm or a roller tomorrow.
Good points Mark. I have quite a few discs that are similar but slightly different (Sidewinder, Medusa, King, Vulcan, Lemon Lake Katana). I enjoy being able to choose between those discs for slight variations in my throw. Also if I were to lose one of those discs I could substitute another disc quite easily without having to change much with my throw. I have to say that the Westside King is quite understable out of the box and would also be a good disc for someone who likes a Valkyrie. If you like a Valkyrie then maybe try some of the discs that I have listed.
Thanks Mark, I will keep this in mind for sure!
Jim, will do!
There is nothing like field practice to really learn the idiosyncracies of each disc in your bag. They are a little spendy ($40-$60), but consider buying a tree-proof first or second run CE Valkyrie, the stablility is quite increased (like a broke in teebird) and they will probably break in by the time I'm 60, lol. Use full weight discs, preferably overstable when throwing into the wind and lighter more understable drivers for tail wind drives. There is no failure as long as you keep thinking and experimenting with the disc flights, weight of disc can be a consideration too. Keep tossin' and keep the faith!!!

Opening Day is here...welcome back baseball.
- Muhammed Ali throws out the first pitch.
Marlins down 3-0...the hitting has been crap.
Been flipping back and forth with the Heat and Marlins but it looks like the Marlins will fall. No hitting, JJ gave up 3 runs but no run support
Sucks that we lost.
But that stadium is phenomenal. Unreal.
Theyve urbanized Little Havana. Laaaawd what did my eyes see last night. The area didn't even look like the same place.
Couldnt find one Goddamn Cuban food vendor with a Chorizo to save my life but I did park on the old lady's lawn where I used to park for games at the Orange Bowl.
Food options at the stadium absolutely **** on anything Sun Life has. They have actually chefs that you can watch cook. Pressed Cubano. Incredible. Can't wait to go back.
Watched it too, oh boy i wont be doing that again, watched the HEAT game too,............ me like basketball.
---------- Post added at 07:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------
Marlins loose 4-0 to the Reds. The hitting has been terrible. Not a good start
Even though I root for the Phillies, I have to say I like the Marlin's new stadium, the lime green colors, the fish tanks in the walls, the sliding roof. Hopefully I can get out there to watch my Phillies when they come to town.
Marlins drop 2 of 3 vs the Reds. It's been a tough couple of games. Heath Bell blew the save today.
Marlins open up series in Philadelphia with a win. Great pitching by Anibal Sanchez and good hitting. Infante had two jacks

Bunnies were running amok at DreamHaven Books last night! The volunteers from the Minnesota Companion Rabbit Society really helped to make the signing special and fun by bringing some of their bunnies and MCRS was ready with information on living with a rabbit for anyone considering that life path. It was crazy and fun! When we were leaving for the event last night, we had received a shipment of books in the mail and we decided to take it with us on the off chance DreamHaven would run out. Within a half hour, the manager came over and asked if we had any extra--and they ended up selling our whole case! Fortunately, we live only a few blocks away and Bill had to run home and get a few more books that I had stashed in a closet!
I honestly had no idea how many people to expect and was surprised, overwhelmed and grateful to look up at one point and see a line through the store extending so far that I couldn't see the end of it. Holy Cow!
I have to say, Cinnamon was at her best. I was a little worried about how she would do with all the people. When I used to work at the birds store, she loved the attention and all the petting, but it's been a few years and I wondered if she was out of the habit. Oh my, how my concerns in vain! She was back in her element and she loved all the attention.
Bill was on Cinnamon wrangling duty, as she was excited to hop around the store (she loves carpeting) but to also he had to make sure she didn't get too close to the other rabbits (like cute little Coco above)--she just does not play well with other bunnies and I'd hate to see her get into a brawl and have it end up on a gossip blog.
When it was about time for the store to close, Elizabeth the manager asked if I would mind staying a little later because some people were on their way and were running late. If someone was making an effort to come for the book, I was willing to stay. I figured that they must have been coming from perhaps a far suburb like Chaska or Woodbury and just stuck in traffic--no, they were coming from Chicago! These ladies in the above photo came all the way to the Twin Cities from Chicago to get their book singed and meet Cinnamon! I was stunned. When I asked what else they had going on in the Twin Cities, they said they weren't sure, they just came up for this. They weren't the farthest, there was also someone who came up from Indianapolis too--Cinnamon's popularity is astounding.
As the shop closed, Bill and I looked down on Cinnamon, and she had kicked out her back legs and was laying on the floor--she was exhausted. So we took her home and set her up with a fresh carrot (complete with green top) in her Cottontail Cottage and then headed out to dinner ourselves.
I want to thank everyone who came last night--really, honestly THANK YOU! And I have to thank Ian and Margery on fm107 who helped promote the event on their show this week--I did have people come up and tell me that's where they heard about it. I have to thank Elizabeth at DreamHaven for not only providing drinks and cookies for all the humans, but also for having lots of fresh organic parsley on hand for all the bunnies. And again, thank you to the Minnesota Companion Rabbit Society for bringing bunnies and spreading the good word about rabbit adoption.

That was so fun last night! Coco says thanks for the shout-out ; )

Timmy and I had so much fun last night :)
It was so nice to meet Sharon and Cinnamon and all the other bunny loving folks at Dreamhaven!
I'm so excited the book is such a success! yaaay :D
Congratulations! It sounds like a wonderful day! You've earned it after all the hard work. I'm enjoying my copy everyday and keep showing it to all my friends and neighbours. They are amazed!
We made the blog?! I think we were kind of nuts to drive 400 miles one way to see Cinnamon and get our book signed, but we had a great time! And our picture is on the blog? That's awesome! I could sincerely feel the disapproval eminating from Cinnamon. It was wonderful.
- Mary said...
It was certainly fun. Cinnamon was a star, and I particularly liked Grayson doing his "comics shopping".
I got home from work today and Son was showing me his favorite Disapprovals in his book....this was his first signing ever.
Thanks Sharon, Elizabeth and everyone involved.
- Anne said...
It was so much fun to meet Cinnamon and all the other fabulous disapproving bunnies! Thank you for signing my book (I was the girl in the girl hoodie who was bunny deprived) and being so fabulously nice!
- archi's mum said...
absolutely congrats! what a blast it must have been - congrats to you for such a successful signing and thanks for just being downhome good folks :-)
you guys are awesome!
My daughter, who lives in Minneapolis, and best friend went to meet Cinnamon and yourself, had a ball and emailed me photo they took of you two celebrities! No explanation, just the photo. If they didn't have huge dogs, they'd have a Cinnamon.

- Rebecca said...
This seems like an odd question, but how do you manage miss Cinnamon's bathroom habits when she is out and about for a while? Portable litterbox?
Congrats again on the book's success! That party looks like a hoppin' good time. (I think buns disapprove of puns, but I had to!)
- Angus said...
Congratulations, Cinnamon! It's always nice to see a bunny make good, especially when she's related to such a neat human. I can't wait for my book to arrive..I think it's in line to be personalized/autographed..woohoo!
- birdchick said...
Did I get Grayson and Coco mixed up? Sorry about that!
Rebecca--excellent question. I figured we weren't going to be there more than two hours, so I didn't bring a portable litterbox, Cinnamon is usually pretty good about her litterbox habits and can go a good two to three hours without needing one.
But Cinnamon did start dropping a few pellets that night--I think because of the other bunnies there. Fortunately, one of the MCRS peeps let her borrow a litter box.
I do have a portable one that I take with me on the road.
- Susan said...
Sharon - congratulations to you & Cinnamon on the success of your book!
- Alice said...
We got Pippin's copy of "Disapproving Rabbits" yesterday, and I proudly showed it off to some friends. They both misread the title as, "Disappearing Rabbits"!
I was tickled to see my Pips in there with a rabbit as famous as Cinnamon. Thank you for sending us a copy! It was very generous of you and I wasn't expecting it. And just so you know, the folks down here in Atlanta are going Disapproving Rabbit mad too!
- Janna Seliger said...
I wish I could've been there, but I couldn't make it! :( Still, I'm glad it was a great time for all creatures involved.
- dguzman said...
Woo hoo! Bunny domination!
- Rebecca said...
Thanks for the reply! I asked partially because I'd like to be able to take my rabbit Samuel with me places, and have thought about how I'd handle the litter issue. The biggest problem to tackle now is his skttishness about cars. He gets so nervous when he is taken out of his environment, I can't imagine how I'm going to successfully car-train him. I am hoping once I have him neutered this month he'll perhaps be more docile and easy to take out of the house.
Man, though. I bet I'll be in for the disapproval of a lifetime right after I have him altered.
You and Cinnamon are the best kinds of bunny advocates. You set such a good example of a bunny/human relationship.
BTW, did Cinnamon poop on their carpet (muahahahaha!)? I ask because my buns would race each other to poop first, esp. with other rabbits around.

Smith's career high 26 lead ETSU to win over Tech
Requires Adobe Flash
Senior Mike Smith had a career high 26 points.
Sunday, November 21, 2010
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Nov. 20, 2010)
Senior guard
Mike Smith
(Vandalia, Mo.) scored a career high 26 points to power the ETSU men's basketball team to a 73-60 Homecoming win over in-state rival Tennessee Tech Saturday afternoon inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center.
Smith was joined in double figures by senior guard
Justin Tubbs
(Trussville, Ala.) with 13, while junior forward
Isiah Brown
(Miami) and senior guard
Micah Williams
(Manchester) pitched in 10 apiece. Defensively, the Bucs held the Golden Eagles to just 37 percent shooting from the floor, forced 17 turnovers, and out-rebounded Tech 37-35.
"It's nice to be back home in the Dome," said ETSU head coach
Murry Bartow
, whose team was suffering from a two-game losing streak on the road to open the year. "I can't say enough about Mike Smith. He really did some nice things for us out there tonight, and that's what we expect to see out of him. It was good for us to get back in here and get a win."
In the first half, the Bucs trailed 8-4 with just over 15 minutes left in the half, but used a 16-0 run to build a 12-point advantage over the next five minutes. Tech answered that barraged by cutting the lead to two at 25-23, but the Bucs were ultimately able to pull away to a 32-25 advantage at the break.
After the intermission, ETSU once again grew its lead to 12 at 47-35 thanks to a 7-0 run. However, Tech clawed its way back into it and got to within four at 58-54 with six minutes remaining. At that point, the Bucs used a final 8-0 spurt to build a comfortable 66-54 edge and pull away for the win.
The Bucs committed just 12 turnovers in the game and grabbed seven steals. They also outscored the Golden Eagle 21-13 in points off turnovers, and enjoyed a 32-24 advantage with points in the paint. ETSU's defense also held Tech to just 24 percent shooting from 3-point range, but Tech did hit on 81 percent (17-of-21) from the charity stripe.
Tennessee Tech was led offensively by Alfred Jones and Kevin Murphy with 13 points apiece, while Zach Bailey pitched in 10.
Along with their solid point totals, Brown finished with a team-high nine rebounds, while Williams picked up eight boards.
The Bucs will return to action next Saturday, Nov. 27, when they take on nearby Milligan College at 4 p.m. inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center. For more on ETSU men's basketball throughout the 2010-11 season, visit ETSUBucs.com and click on the men's hoops link.

So much for shopping on a budget! When Gwyneth Paltrow shared eight different looks on her lifestyle blog, Goop.com, on Thursday, we had to pick our jaws up from the floor when we saw that the combines cost of all the looks she's wearing ended in a whopping $32,182. And, when you include all of her Spring style essentials that weren't photographed, the total is more than $450,000!
"Back by popular request, here is our third annual Spring fashion edit of Net-a-Porter," the blonde beauty wrote. "Find inspiration for outfits for all aspects of your busy life. Love, GP."
While we would love to take Gwyneth's fashion advice, with those prices, inspiration is clearly the only thing we'll be able to get! The designer duds include everything from a red R13 glossed-leather biker jacked for $1,995 to a $675 Lanvin jersey T-shirt.
Check out this video to see more of her super cute (and super expensive) ensembles!

2 pounds
extra-lean ground beef
1 cup
Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1 small
onion, chopped
eggs, beaten
1/8 teaspoon
garlic powder
1 teaspoon
1 teaspoon
4 ounces
thinly sliced cooked ham
4 ounces
provolone cheese, sliced
I had plain breadcrumbs so I had to season my own with homemade italian seasoning. I used about a tablespoon. I added 1 tablespoon worchestershire to the beaten eggs, upped the garlic powder to a teaspoon and a half, eliminated the salt and I used black forest ham. I had a heck of a time rolling this, even with the butcher paper. I did get it rolled and smushed back together, but it came apart a little in the baking process. I think if I make this again, I'll let the meat mixture sit fifteen minutes before rolling or chill it an hour or something. It's in the oven now (and smells AMAZING) so I'll update how the family liked it once they've tried it. EDITED: Even as ugly as it came out, it was really tasty. The whole family LOVED it. This one's a keeper. I just have to practice rolling it!

I thought this recipe turned out wonderfully, although I added some things! I added a bit of ketchup and mustard, along with brown sugar and a touch of balsamic vinaigrette. I covered it for half of the cook time with foil-it turned out great!
I love meatloaf and infact i would eat it more, but my husband doesnt care for it. Well when i saw cheese in this recipe, i figured hey thats what he likes! Put cheese in anything and he will eat it... He did. Now seriously, i personally thought this was a great recipe. Was not hard at all to make. The taste was excellent. Very differnt and very satisfing. What I might do next time is change the way it is cooked. I did cook it for 2 hours and my center was still way to pink. Maybe if you layer it in a square 9x9 or 8x8. I am not sure, but there has to be a better way. 2 hours is way too much. I really enjoyed eating it though. The next night I heated it up and made sandwiches. We put pickles and mayo on whole wheat bread and it was almost like a burger! This is a keeper, except for the way it is cook, i will come up with a plan for next time..
I gave this 5 stars (this is in comparison to other meatloafs, not recipes in general). It was excellent (and I don't even like meatloaf!), and sooo fast & easy to put together. I baked it for an hour- the top and ends were perfectly done, but inside was a little pink. Next time I'll do as someone suggested and cover with tin foil about 45 minutes in, then bake another 25 minutes. A definate keeper- my husband loved it too! Looking forward to the left overs!
My husband LOVED this recipe - said "This one's a keeper!" I took "PotatoFreak's" suggestion & used multiple cheeses & pepperoni on the inside. Afterplacing the meatloaf in the pan, I wrapped it in bacon, baked for 1hr & 10 minutes covered, then 20 minutes uncovered. Moist & perfect! Thank you so much for a great dish!
I did this a little differently but with excellent results! I stuffed it with american, mozzerella and pepperoni. Topped it with strips of bacon and a ketchup, brown sugar, mustard sauce. I cooked it covered for an hour and 10 minutes and uncovered for 20. It was moist and wonderful! I will make this one again and again.
This was great! My family loved it! I also added mozzerella cheese to mine.
I baked it for 45 minutes covered in foil, and another 45min. w/out. Turned out GREAT!!

News and Announcements
SANTA CLARA, Calif. – June 17, 2014 – The pursuit and creative utilization of wind power resources has earned Silicon Valley Power (SVP), the City of Santa Clara's municipal electric utility, the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) 2014 Public Power Wind Award. The DOE cited SVP innovation and customer benefits in announcing the national award, presented today at the American Public Power Association's National Conference in Denver, Colorado.
"Wind and water are two of our cleanest and cheapest sources of electricity," said John Roukema, Director of SVP. "Wind power helps Santa Clara keep electric rates among the lowest in the state and helps make up for the scarcity of hydroelectric power in a drought year."
Instead of regularly utilizing hydro-generated power to serve day-to-day needs, SVP has access to as much as 200 megawatts of wind energy. Tapping that power when it is available allows SVP to preserve water levels at its hydroelectric reservoirs for use when electricity demand spikes during heat waves.
In 1982, SVP became a pioneer in harnessing wind to generate power when it invested in a 20-megawatt wind farm on Altamount Pass in the East Bay. Subsequent long-term investments with Iberdrola Renewables, the latest in 2012, also bring in power from the Big Horn Wind Energy Project in Washington and the Manzana Wind Power Project in Southern California.
Over 30 percent of SVP's power comes from carbon-free wind, hydroelectric, solar, geothermal and landfill gas generation resources – well ahead of California's Renewable Portfolio Standard requirements. In addition, SVP customers have an option to use 100 percent renewables by signing up for Santa Clara Green Power.
"SVP has remained mindful of environmental impacts and demonstrated project creativity in wind development for over 30 years," said Roukema. "We recognize our responsibility to provide efficient, clean and reliable energy to our community at rates up to 45 percent lower than those in neighboring cities."
A panel of wind, public power, utility, government, and national laboratory experts selected SVP for the Public Power Wind Award (single utility category) from among seven nominated public power utilities in the United States.

About Silicon Valley Power
Silicon Valley Power is the trademark adopted for use by the not-for-profit electric municipal utility of Santa Clara, CA serving residents and businesses for over 100 years. SVP provides power to more than 50,000 customers, including Applied Materials, Intel, Owens Corning, Yahoo! and NVIDIA, at rates 15 to 45 percent below neighboring communities.

The North American media has descended on Sochi, and...how do we put this gently? Sochi's not ready.
The athlete accommodations are fine, if a bit cozy and, um, social. But the media hotels, along with much of the hastily-built city infrastructure, are decidedly lacking. Three of the nine hotels in the mountain complex simply aren't done, and the ones that are open are dirty, unfinished, broken, or infested with something or other.
Bruce Arthur is on the scene, and gives a good rundown:
Almost every room is missing something: lightbulbs, TVs, lamps, chairs, curtains, wifi, heat, hot water. Shower curtains are a valuable piece of the future black market here. (One American photographer was simply told, "You will not get a shower curtain.")
In the Ekaterininsky Kvartal hotel, the elevator is broken and the stairway is unlit, with stairs of varying and unpredictable heights.
Outside the Chistya Prudy, there is a bag of concrete in a palm tree, leaking grey down the trunk. Inside, some of the electrical outlets are just plates screwed into drywall.
Sports Illustrated's Brian Cazeneuve had to clamber through a window to get out of his hotel on Tuesday morning, since the doors were all unexpectedly locked. Chris Stevenson of the Ottawa Sun was without electricity for the first day.
But it's so much worse than that.
People have asked me what surprised me the most here in Sochi. It's this. Without question ... it's ... THIS. pic.twitter.com/1jj05FNdCP

Ok, so my hotel doesn't have a lobby yet.

Congrats to @Dave_Schwartz only media personality who's arrived in Sochi with a hotel room that's ready, with doorknob that doesn't fall off

My hotel has no water. If restored, the front desk says, "do not use on your face because it contains something very dangerous." #Sochi2014
— Stacy St. Clair (@StacyStClair) February 4, 2014
Water restored, sorta. On the bright side, I now know what very dangerous face water looks like. #Sochi #unfiltered pic.twitter.com/sQWM0vYtyz

Went to buy water, realised at last minute was big plastic bottle of gin. Then got accosted by 3-legged dog. #Sochi pic.twitter.com/RbP2GqnXUK
— Shaun Walker (@shaunwalker7) February 4, 2014
Gross? You don't know gross. Arthur again:
Oh, and one journalist in the Omega hotel complex had to refuse a colleague's request to stay a night in the second twin bed because … well, there's no easy way to say this, but when the first journalist arrived, someone had left an indeterminate amount of semen on the sheets of the second bed, and those sheets had been taken away for cleaning, and hadn't come back.
German photographer Joerg Reuter has been in Sochi for two weeks, and spent much of that time trying to find a hotel room fit for humans.
"The outdoor area and floors/staircase/elevator inside were still under construction and completely dirty," Reuter wrote, adding that the room he was shown "had no light in the main room, the water out of the tap was yellow/brown, the air conditioning, TV, kitchenware were all not working ... Beside this the room was totally dirty and everywhere covered with dust."
The next room was worse.
"In some rooms you actually saw that there are still the construction workers sleeping and living," he wrote.
Seeing the dog walk out of the third room he was shown was a step too far.
"When I came out of the elevator, there was the dog. I said, 'Right, that's it,'" Reuter told The Associated Press.
So, those dogs. Sochi's privately contracted dog murder squads are apparently falling behind on their work. Every journalist says the area is rife with strays, just generally puttering around and minding their own business. Some are even quite friendly! But don't get too attached to them, as the Detroit Free Press's Jo-Ann Barnas did.

— Jo-Ann Barnas (@JoAnnBarnas) February 4, 2014
Yeah, maybe skip the media breakfast for a couple days.
So the rooms are a mess. Exiting hotels can be hazardous. Even when you've made it outside, you're still not safe:
Watch your step @Sochi2014 — I've noticed on walkway and on sidewalks that not all man holes are always covered. pic.twitter.com/a5Nv4wu5iA

At a reported $51 billion, these are by far the most expensive Olympics in history. But transforming a sleepy beach town with little infrastructure and inappropriate geography into the world's hub requires a massive undertaking, one that Russia hasn't quite completed.

Get To Know About Electric Cars
One of the important scientific inventions that made a mark in the automobile industry is the invention of electric cars. Especially, in places where there is a scarcity of fossil fuel using electric cars will be a very good alternative. In fact, many people have started to love this hybrid car that has increased its sales in the world market. It is considered the latest trend too. A reason that would stop a customer from buying this vehicle will be the less number of charging stations and high cost. When there is an increase in the sales of the vehicle, then automatically there will be a possibility for a reduction of cost.
In fact, the cost has already started to fall when compared to the previous costs. An electric car will be able to travel about 100 miles on one charge and after that it will require recharging. The downside is that the recharging stations cannot frequently be found at the gasoline stations. This acts as a very big disadvantage of this vehicle. In fact, the charging will take some considerable time even the rapid charging station will require 30 minutes to charge 80 percent of the car.

Genesis Today's Organic Açaí 100TM unlocks açai's superfruit powers in a 100% pure and potent liquid dietary supplement made entirely from USDA certified organic, wild-harvested açaí berries (Euterpe oleracea) sustainably sourced from the lush Amazon Rainforest.

Ana and Heinz Gunthardt have ceased their coaching relationship. The pair began working together in February, with Gunthardt serving as Ana's coach through to this month's China Open. Although the Swiss was an almost ever-present figure at Ana's tournaments during this time, he combined the role with his position as lead commentator for Swiss television.
"I'm very grateful to Heinz for all his hard work, and for sharing his knowledge with me," said Ana. "We had nice success together and we definitely made improvements to my game.
"Looking ahead, I really need a full-time coach who is with me at all tournaments and during training periods. Heinz has family and other obligations, which I fully respect, so he is unable to give me the kind of commitment I am looking for."
Gunthardt said: "It's been a real pleasure working with Ana. She's got lots of talent and I feel in the last few months the hard work that we have put in started to pay off. If Ana feels she needs a coach at her side full-time to be able to further improve, it cannot be me."
"I wish her all the best and I will be supporting her."

text: News from the Heights If you need more information, call Le Moyne's Office of Communications at 315-445-4555 or contact via email Joe Della Posta or Molly McCarthy. Read past issues of the magazine "Does Evolution Have a Purpose?" Continues Science & Religion in Modern America Series On Thursday, Oct. 24 at 7 p.m., Michael Ruse, Ph.D., will discuss "Does Evolution Have a Purpose?" Ruse is a professor and director of the History and Philosophy of Science Program in the Department of Philosophy at Florida State University. The talk is part of the "Science and Religion in Modern America" lecture series. The Scientific Revolution of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries introduced a change of metaphors, from the world seen organically to the world seen mechanically. No longer was there place for ends or final causes in science. Instead, everything was supposed to be understood simply in terms of matter in motion. Biology, however, proved to be remarkably recalcitrant. As Immanuel Kant concluded, it seems impossible to think of individual organisms without appeal to purposes and, as life scientists sought non-biblical solutions to origins, they replaced the Judeao-Christian, human-centered history with a history based on progress culminating in humans -- from Providence to Progress. This lecture examines evolutionary biology today and asks whether teleology or end-directed thinking has finally been left behind or continues to lurk even in the minds of the most stridently naturalistic thinkers. Ruse is a worldwide expert on the relationship between religion and science. His work has focused especially on the convoluted relationship between the American public and Darwinian evolution; he famously testified in McLean vs. Arkansas in 1981 that creation science -- a form of Christian creationism that claims to be scientifically valid -- should not be allowed in public science classes, because it features virtually none of the characteristics of true science. "Science and Religion in Modern America" is an initiative led by the McDevitt Chair in Religious Philosophy, George Coyne. S.J., and the McDevitt Center for Creativity and Innovation at Le Moyne. Its principal aim is to engage members of the campus community, as well as the broader Central New York community, in a candid, respectful conversation about the complex and seemingly disparate subjects of science and religion. The central pillars of this two-year endeavor are nine public lectures by eminent scholars, which will be held over the course of three academic semesters, and a concluding conference, which will take place in the spring of 2014. All of these events will be digitally recorded and made available on the McDevitt Center website. For more information, contact the McDevitt Center for Creativity and Innovation at firstname.lastname@example.com on: 10/6/2013

Throughout his career, Cryer has turned in outstanding, eclectic performances in film, television and on stage. Cryer won an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his work as Alan Harper. Recently, he was nominated for his first Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Comedy Series for this role. The show also won The People's Choice Award for Best New Comedy Series in its debut year as well as Favorite TV Comedy. After making his directorial debut on an episode of "Two and a Half Men" during its fourth season, Cryer continues to direct episodes of the show.
Cryer's first foray into television was playing the title role in "The Famous Teddy Z," on the Network. He has since starred in "Getting Personal," "Partners" and "The Trouble with Normal." In addition, he's had notable guest starring roles on "The Practice," "Andy Richter Controls the Universe" and "Mr. Show."
Initially, Cryer gained attention on the big screen opposite Demi Moore in "No Small Affair," followed by his iconic performance as an endearing misfit in John Hughes' "Pretty in Pink." Other film credits include "Hot Shots," "Hiding Out," "Shorts" and the indie feature "Weather Girl."
Cryer's talent is not limited to acting – he's a gifted filmmaker, as well. He co-wrote, produced and starred in two well-received independent films with director Richard Schenkman. The first, "The Pompatus of Love," explores the romantic floundering of four friends in their 30s. Cryer based his second film, "Went to Coney Island on a Mission from God… Be Back by Five" on the true story of a childhood friend who was homeless and living in Central Park. The film garnered awards in film festivals both in the U.S. and abroad.
On stage, Cryer has hit the boards on both sides of the Atlantic. Most recently, he appeared in the New York Philharmonic Broadway revival of "Company," which marked his first foray into musicals. He played David in Harvey Fierstein's "Torch Song Trilogy," bringing the role from Broadway to Los Angeles; starred as Eugene Jerome on Broadway in Neil Simon's "Brighton Beach Memoirs," and played Jack in the Los Angeles premiere of "Boys' Life." His performance in the London production of "900 Oneonta" inspired the Daily Mail to proclaim Cryer's work "…undoubtedly one of the funniest performances on the West End stage."
A native New Yorker, Cryer is the son of actor David Cryer and writer and actress Gretchen Cryer. Alongside his mother, he did his first commercial at the age of 4 and was so excited that he broke out in hives, halting production. He studied acting at Stage-door Manor, a summer acting camp featured in Todd Graff's Sundance favorite, "Camp," before being accepted to the London's prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. In the fall of 2011, coinciding with the ninth season premier of "Two and a Half Men," Cryer was honored with a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Currently, Cryer resides in Los Angeles. His birth date is April 16.

Huff played great last night
Griffin was also great
How about the tackles for Texas? Barely heard anything about Rucker or anyone else on the USC DL. Scott is a beast and Blaylock played great.
Bing played very well, hit everything, I wonder how many tackles he and Huff had last night?
Winston Justice had a solid game, no real pressure on Leinart unless there was a blitz
Taitusi Lutui played awesome. If we could get him in the 2nd or 3rd, not sure were he's ranked,he would be a beast of a player at G and move Hadnot to C.
I really liked what I saw in Steve Smith, he was blocking and running some good patterns. He very fast. Would be a great late round pick if he's there.
There was lots more talent in this game but I concentrated on players who we may have a shot on and positions of need for the Phins.
Who impressed who other than the obvious guys? (QBs)

Hey guys,
Here's another installment of "How To" for those newbies/youngsters who are entering the fabrication arena & need to produce multiple parts with "repetitive consistency". I find jig building is a necessity for anyone who needs/wants to produce more than 3-4 items the same or who wants to produce many items for sale. Easy projects like this can be quite lucrative once you can establish your cost for material & the time-per-piece so as to set a price to maintain a decent profit.
I had a customer call last week & wanted these beverage holders made to his specs, not the size available on the market(& not made in China). He wanted more height & a good strong all-steel welded unit. He sent me some pics of what is available on the market & pricing & the sizes made. I looked at the design, cost, & if I could produce these & make a profit. After getting pricing from my metal supplier, I started to cut material in bulk amounts keeping track of time & quantities I could produce. The 3/8" HR rods I could cut (6) at a time on my dry cut saw, the 1" X 1/8" flat stock I could cut & drill (10) pieces at a time. I had to cut the 3/8"W rings from a piece of 4"D X 5'L pipe & I had it leftover from a job so no cost there. I used some leftover 1 1/2"sq tubing that was lying under the workbench to construct the jig.
The bev. holder pieces were:
1) 52"L of 3/8"HR rod.....bent to configure the handle & ground to a semi-point
2) 6"L " " " "...... bent at 3" to 90* w/semi-point
3) 8"L X 1" X 1/8" flat stock center drilled W/3/8" hole.
4) 4"dia. tube rings cut 3/8"W & 1/2" removed to get finish diameter of 3.5"
5) 1.5"W X 3"L X 1/8" flat stock for a clip-on/magnetic score card
The jig was assembled by laying the long rod on the base piece to determine height configuration supports to have components centered for welding. It worked out quite nicely & I only had to cut a ring slot in the horizontal base support to hold the rings C/L to weld to the rod at the cut on the ring. Once I had everything in place, it only took 2 min to weld all the components.....quite easy.
When I finished, I determined I could produce these, primed & painted for $60/pr. & maintain a decent profit. The only change requested by the customer after coming to the shop was to add a 4"W X 12"L X 16ga plate to replace the small plate to be used as the score plate only on one of the pair. He would add the numbering/lettering that was needed for score. I told him the cost would be an additional $5.....$65/pr. He pre-paid for (8) sets for his family members & indicated the club he belongs to would probably want 20-30 sets. So, looks like I get to keep busy for a while.
Anyway, here's some pics. There are (10), so I will need (2) posts to get them all on. Give me a few minutes xtra to get them all on. I just want to help the youngsters/newbies to get a basic understanding of production applications that will help reduce costs & produce a healthier profit margin. Feel free to ask any ???...... Thanks.....

Thats great Yorkie, I love the jig. I would have probably tried to fight with it and end up with things going every which direction and then had to cut it apart. These would be pretty handy to have a half dozen or so incase someone decided to sit a spell and take a load off.
As usual, very nice job.

Nice job. I have found jigs to be invaluable. Here are a few jigs I had the fab shop I use for various things laser cut and form. Even if it is one-off stuff, the ability to make a hole dead center in tubing with minimal effort is wonderful. I'd be interested in seeing what others have built as far as fixtures, you never know what you may need someday

Hi Denny,
Top notch as usual.
Those jigs make sure the last one looks like the first with the least time spent measuring and holding.
Thanks for sharing

Glad to hear you've got some work coming in. Those are some good looking drink holders and you said it first, ( They are not made in CHINA! ). I learned to use jigs for production runs in cabinetmaking and carpentry before I ever tried them on metal. Some helpful things cross over no matter what medium you work with.Sometimes there's no second chances.

Ana was interviewed for the official programme of the Qatar Tournament of Champions, which takes place this week in Sofia. It is an event she won in 2010 and 2011, when it was staged in Bali.
The following is a reproduction of the interview with reporters Lubomir Todorov and Yavor Guerontiev:
How do you rate the Tournament of the Champions in your career?
It's definitely one of my favourite events, and of course the tournament I've had the most success at – I've never lost in it!
What is different compared with the other events on the Tour?
There is a special feeling because there are only eight players. It feels more intimate. There are less people around the player lounge, so it's a bit more relaxed. And there is only one match taking place at a time, so the atmosphere is always exciting.
What do you remember from 2010 and your 1st title in Bali?
I remember that I had had a difficult year but had been playing quite well at the end. I won the Linz tournament and I was able to continue that form in Bali. I remember when I arrived there thinking how fast the courts were, and that I might struggle to adapt. But I played a great match in the first round against Pavlyuchenkova and it was just a great week overall.
We hoped to see you defending the cup in Sofia. Would you have come if you had not to play the Fed Cup final?
For sure. I am very proud and excited to be playing in the Fed Cup final, but it's also frustrating that I can't defend my title in Sofia. It's a great shame for me that these two events are on at the same time.
You have many fans in Bulgaria, they remember you. Do you want to tell them something?
That is very nice to hear. I am sorry that I won't be there to see them, I'm grateful for their support and I hope to visit there one day.
What do you expect for the tournament in Sofia- the chances of the players to win?
I'm expecting an exciting event – always when a country organizes a new tournament it is very thrilling. It's a special occasion for everyone: the organizing staff, the fans and the players.
Do you think it will be tougher for Pironkova to play at home?
For sure there will be more pressure for her but also she can try to use the home support to her advantage. I am sure she will have a lot of fans cheering for her and that can help you get through tough matches.
