Comments for:Native Instruments Releases TRAKTOR PRO 2.528-May-12 1 Comments... Comments are closed while we transition to Disqus codec Said...
This is NI's first foray away from an open midi controller system. Only the top row of sample slots can be designated to 3rd party MIDI controllers. The rest can only be controlled by the F1,(With a loose promise of future support). It's the old "release now, fix it later" story.
It seems like NI is finally making good money with the DJ market, and are moving forward with the closed controller system to increase sales of hardware. I am suspicious of this direction especially after NI abandoned the unfinished Kore platform.
My other complaint is against the tech-support for Traktor at NI. It seems that every NI tech-support call I've had addressing Traktor issues has ended with "sorry we couldn't help you, it's a known issue". I'm a bit burned at this point, and won't be buying the rainbow-brite controller until they resolve Traktor's other blatant software issues. they also need to give some love to the synth line, and not just release Reaktor patches for sale.
What happened to the NI we knew and loved? 28-May-12 08:21 PM Comments are closed while we transition to Disqus |

Pinched Nerve and Numbness09/19/2007 |
My boyfriend does have lung cancer and a small tumor on his lower spine and brain. A few months ago he also had an epidural for a herniated disc pressing a nerve against his spine. He has numbness in his lower back and rectum and is having some bladder problems. I believe this may be still caused from the nerve problem. He also has tens unit from a neck problem. Do you think this would help the nerve? His oncologist is hesitant to send him back to an orthopedic even though he has a report saying there is a disc/nerve problem. I would appreciate any help you can give.
I am sorry to here that your friend has lung cancer. One thing you have to make sure that he does not have compression fracture or collapsed vertebra. Then if that is okay, he will need to see a pain specialist to be able to determine the actual need of a repeat epidural or more interventions like selective nerve block or percutaneous diskectomy. Thank you.

Gleaner Super Series Combines With Natural Flow
Introduced in North America in 2010, and soon to be launched in Australia, the Gleaner continues to be a big success. One of the main things that makes a Gleaner Super Series combine unique is Natural Flow™ feeding and threshing. With the rotor setting the width of the combine, the crop does not compress or change directions when moving from the feeder house to the rotor.
The process begins as grain enters the machine through the 69-inch (1,752 mm) long by 39.5-inch (1,003 mm) wide feeder house that is powered by an 8 5/8-inch (219 mm) diameter front feed drum. The feeder house can be reversed with the touch of a button from the operator's seat in the event of a plug.
The feeder house pivots vertically at the first chain, anchoring the rear chain on a fixed angle regardless of header height. The second chain outpaces the first by 6 percent to prevent bunching. Four-strand undershot feed chains offer 33 percent more chain support than competitive three-strand feed chains to help prevent bent feeder slats.
In addition to keeping the crop moving in a smooth ribbon from feeding to threshing, the Natural Flow system has an additional feature that distinguishes it from competitors' designs. Because the rotor is moving in line with the way the crop is fed into the machine, material is pulled into the rotor rather than being pushed in from the feeding system. This is a significant advantage in ensuring smooth feeding and reducing plugs. Bottlenecks are reduced because a Gleaner does not narrow the crop mat when moving from the feeder house to the rotor. The width of crop mat remains the same from the time it enters the feeder house to the time it enters the rotor, also reducing plugs and increasing threshing efficiency.
Stay tuned for an announcement of some live AGCO Chats with Kevin Bien, AGCO's Product Marketing Manager for Combines in North America. What questions do you want Kevin to answer about the Super Series combines?
One Response to "Gleaner Super Series Combines With Natural Flow"
My name is John Strode. My farm is in Southern Kentucky in Barren County.
I was just hoping you might have a minute to give some advice. I'm needing to purchase a combine for our family farm. The only combines we have ever used are 66 & 72 all crop harvesters – until now these vintage machines have taken care of our needs but I'm changing our farming model in hopes of being able to produce enough grain to pay the bills and keep the farm in our family for another generation.
Instead of 40 or 50 acres we are now harvesting 70 to 140. Now I realize this is very small in comparison to most folks you engage in conversation but I truly desire an honest opinion and I'm hoping and praying you are just the guy to give me some direction.
Unfortunately farming isn't my only occupation but it has always been my passion and as soon as I can retire it is my desire to spend the rest of my life taking care of the place I grew up. Because I'm limited on the amount of time I can take off at work, I'm looking for a combine that will harvest my grain quickly and since I've been used to a 72″ cut I guess that would be just about anything with a 16′ or greater head. I want a Gleaner but there are so many models to choose from I don't know which is the best. Financially I'm limited to $15,000 or less but there are plenty of late 70's and early 80's to choose from in that price range.
I'm guessing the less hours the better but I'm also speculating that the later the model the better it might hold up.
We grow wheat (and bale the straw) and beans. I've never raised much corn but if it becomes profitable I'm not ruling it out.
I'm looking for a combine that will last for years to come, with aftermarket parts, and something I can use for hire to help pay for.So with the information I've provided (and I do apologize for being so long winded), which Gleaner would you recommend.
Again thanks so much for taking the time to read and respond to this email.

I have a DS1200 which used to work fine, but today I can get no sound from my iPod Classic. The clock on the DS1200 works fine, the iPod charges, and I can change the volume on the iPod using the DS1200 + and - buttons. But there is no sound.
The dock connector on my iPod should be OK, as I use it every day to connect to my car stereo that way.
Any ideas anyone?

Center Hill News
We, here at Center Hill, had a wonderful Easter Sunday. We had Sunrise Services with Bro. Bobby Caples bringing our early message. Afterwards, we all went up to the Fellowship Building for breakfast. The men out did themselves on our breakfast. Everything was ready to eat when we walked in the door and everything was delicious. Thank you, Jimmy Lessel, Steve Tutor, Keith and Cliff. We met back again at 9:30 for our regular services. Bro. Lee had him an "Amen Pew" on the front row Sunday morning ranging from ages 12 down to 4. (They were sooo- cute.)
Saturday was a beautiful day for an Easter Egg Hunt. We had a crowd of children, big and little. I had four of our grandchildren at the Hunt and we all enjoyed looking!!! Afterwards, we went visiting. We went to see Mr. Virgil and Ms. Frances for a little while. Mr. Virgil rode all four kids, at the same time, on his golf cart and they really enjoyed that. When it was time to go, Alex told me he was staying and for me just to tell his Dad to come by and pick him up. He really meant it, too. We left there and went by Papaw Ham's (Mr. Buddy Hamblin) and visited with him, Aunt Re Re and Aunt Nesie. They went with Papaw to the barn to feed the donkeys. It's so good for our little ones to get out like that and see donkeys, goats, chickens and what it's like on a farm. Thank all of you for welcoming us and taking time with the children. We loved our visit.
I'm going back for a few weeks since I've missed several weeks writing our column. We were gone on vacation for almost two weeks on a cruise, visiting the Panama Canal, Aruba, Costa Rica and Jamaica. Once we got home, I've worked every Monday so couldn't get my news in time before print time. I'm sorry.
Papaw Grant (Junior Grant) took his last breath on this earth on Friday morning, March 27th. He had a malignant tumor on his brain. Hospice had brought a bed out and he was at home with Mamaw and his children around him. His birthday was Sunday, March 8th. Mamaw cooked a big birthday dinner for him. All the children were here and most of the grandchildren and great-grand's, not to mention the extended families that went by to see him for just a minute to wish him a Happy Birthday. Visitation was held on Saturday evening, March 28th with funeral services on Sunday, March 29th at 2:00 PM at Center Hill Baptist Church. Mr. Sonny McAlister sang The Great Speckled Bird, which was one of Papaw's favorite songs. Matt sang Beulah Land and Rita Reeder ended the service with her song which was beautiful, too. I just don't know the name of the song, for I had never heard it before.
Our community was saddened a few weeks back when Jimmy Steele passed away after a hard struggle with cancer. Jimmy was the father of Jason Steele, who has our Endville General Store here in the community. Jimmy had been a long-time resident. He was married to Barbara Day Willard and they lived on Old Hwy 6 at the time of his death. Our sympathy extends to Barbara, his children, Jima, Karen, Jason and his sister, Gayle and brothers, Brooks and Robert.
Ms. Ethel had her family with her on Easter Sunday to help her celebrate her 86th birthday next Wednesday. Mamaw, we all love you a whole lot and hope you have many more.
Happy belated Birthday wishes to Inita Pannell who celebrated on Friday, March 13th. Danica McCord also celebrated her birthday on March 13th. Lee Bramlitt turned another year older on March 18th. Hope Culpepper had a birthday on March 22nd. Our granddaughter, Lacey Grant turned 5 on March 25th. Last, but certainly not least, Flora Ann Goudy celebrated her birthday on Friday, March 27th.
Lisa Lewis had her birthday on April 3rd and she and Greg celebrated their Anniversary the same day. Happy 64th Anniversary to Mr. Virgil and Ms. Frances Herring on April 7. Luanne Clayton and Debbie McCraw celebrated their birthdays this past Sunday, April 12. Mamaw Grant and Aunt Effie will be celebrating their 86th birthdays today, April 15th. Cliff & I will celebrate another anniversary together on April 18th. The years sure pass by so quicklyeeIt doesn't seem like we've been married 22 years, but we're sure looking forward to 22 more!!!
We began our Cottage Prayer Meeting on Monday, April 13th at 6:30 nightly… Monday night was at Aunt Effie Smith's. Tuesday night was at Flora Ann's house. Wednesday night will be at Bro. Lee's and Ms. Bonnie's at the parsonage. Thursday night will be at Cliff's & June's and Friday night will be at Lanita Malone's. Those wanting to ride the van should meet at the Church at 6:00pm.
The Layman's Renewal will begin Sunday morning, April 26th. Tim Sanders will be our speaker at 10am. Steve Tutor will speak to us at 11 am.
The evening service on Sunday will begin at 6:30 pm with the Master's Quartet singing and Josh Sparks (the late Bro. Danny Sparks' son) from Endville Baptist Church will speak at 7:00 PM.
Monday evening ee" Stacy Horton from Shady Grove will speak at 7:00 PM with
Bro. Steve Parrish as our special guest singer.

Studying the scope and inherent purpose of Ezekiel, William Greenhill offers extensive interpretation and elucidation of the original Hebrew. Greenhill diligently expounds the prophecies and judgment held in Ezekiel.
His style is . . . clear, singularity arresting, and impressive.
—The Homilist
William Greenhill (1591–1671) was educated at the University of Oxford before becoming Scholar of Magdalen College, Oxford. Greenhill went on to become Minister at Stepney—of which he later went on to preach before the British House of Commons.
Providing exegetical analysis on the book of Ezekiel, Henry A. Redpath offers concise studies on the character of Ezekiel, the historical chronology, and stylistic characteristics found in the text. Redpath also takes the time to thoroughly examine semantic meaning from the Greek translation.
His notes will be found useful in embodying information and references for readers for whom the series is designed. A word of commendation must be added for Mr. Nash's drawings made to illustrate Ezekiel's Temple.
—The Journal of Education
Henry A. Redpath (1848–1908) studied at Queen's College, Oxford before becoming Vicar of Wolvercote. Redpath later became a lecturer at the University of Oxford.
In Ezekiel, Richard G. Moulton discusses the literary characteristics of Ezekiel, the allegorical meaning of its prophecy, and Israel's spiritual position under the law. Examining both biblical history and prophetic history in context, Moulton employs comparison to other Old Testament prophets in order to clarify Ezekiel's stance towards Israel.
Richard G. Moulton (1849–1924) was Professor of English Literature at the University of Chicago. Moulton was born in England and educated as a lawyer before immigrating to America.
William Kelly furnishes annotation and interpretation of critical prophecy and history found in the Book of Ezekiel. Kelly breaks down the text in order to independently study each respective section.
William Kelly (1823–1906), born in Ireland, moved to London after attending Trinity College in Dublin. Becoming highly involved with the Plymouth Brethren, he also became a prolific writer, earning the respect of theologians such as Henry Alford. He is quoted as having said "There are three things real—the Cross, the enmity of the world, the love of God."
Expounding on the theopneustic character of Ezekiel, Patrick Fairburn provides comprehensive exegesis of the composition, style, content, and prophecies found in the text. Fairburn explores the symbolic and implicit details of the text and provides insightful clarification and elucidation.
A work which was greatly wanted, and which will give the author no mean place among the Biblical Expositors of his country and language, for it has cat considerable light on one of the obscurest portions of God's Word.
—Journal of Sacred Literature
Patrick Fairbairn (1805–1874) was educated at the University of Edinburgh before becoming Professor of Theology at Free Church Theological College. Fairburn later became Professor of Church History and Exegesis at the Free Church College in Glasgow.
Moving systematically through the book of Ezekiel, Thomas Guthrie examines the common themes throughout the book. Expounding on the character of the prophet, the extent of redemptive justice, and the sanctification of Israel, Thomas Guthrie extends ample commentary on a critical portion of Old Testament prophecy.
The theology of this admirable volume resemble the language in which it is embodied; it is the theology of the old school—direct, simple, forcible, not sheathead in clouds of ingenious speculation, but bearing in every page the clear impress of the New Testament.
—Hugh Miller
Thomas Guthrie (1813–1873) was educated at University of Edinburgh before becoming Minister of the church in Arbirlot, Scotland. Guthrie was a founder of the Ragged Schools—providing education, food, clothing, and housing for destitute children.
Providing comprehensive exegesis and annotation based on the Septuagint, Targumic, and Vulgate translations, C. H. Toy introduces critical interpretation of Ezekiel. Toy extends historical and political context for clarification, and examines the figurative language employed throughout the text.
C. H. Toy (1869–1879) was educated at the University of Virginia before becoming was Professor of Hebrew and Oriental Languages at Harvard University.
Moving chapter-by-chapter, E. W. Hengstenberg provides exposition of the prophet Ezekiel within historical and semantic context. Expressing the importance of prophecy, Hengstenberg defines and elucidates the connection between Ezekiel and other Old Testament prophecy, as well as the outplay of Israel's actions.
This is a superior little volume of its class. The sketches are original and highly suggestive; too strongly marked with the writer's individuality to be used by others, and all the more valuable on that account.
—The London Quarterly Review
E. W. Hengstenberg (1802–1869) was educated at the University of Bonn before becoming Professor of Theological Philosophy at the University of Berlin. In 1827 Hengstenberg became the editor of Evangelische Kirckenzeitung, a German Journal intent on defending the Christian faith.
Focusing solely on the temple as divinely revealed to Ezekiel, William Hewson expounds on the symbolic meaning, the physical description of the envisioned structure, and the historic circumstances of Ezekiel's prophecies. Hewson inquires into the social and moral response of Israel to Ezekiel's role as prophet.
William Hewson (1806–1870) was educated at St. John's College, Cambridge before becoming Curate of Bishop Burton and Spofforth, Yorkshire. In his later years, Newson became Head-master of St. Peter's School in York.
Concentrating on the Temple of Ezekiel, Henry Sulley clarifies the vision given to Ezekiel, as well as the implications beholding the course of events for Israel. Sulley details the manifestation of Israel's response to Ezekiel, and the intended submission to prophetic authority.
Henry Sulley (1845–1940) was a prolific English architect who authored extensive works on the temples of Jerusalem. Sulley's background in architecture allowed him to develop practical commentary on biblical structures.
Focusing on Ezekiel 37 and the vision of the Valley of Dry Bones, G. T. Bedell explores the spiritual significance of the contextual imagery and symbolism. Endeavoring to analyze the extent of the vision and prophecy, Bedell renders succinct commentary outlining the redemption of Israel.
G. T. Bedell (1817–1892) was educated at Bristol College, Virgina Theological Seminary, and Norwich University. Bedell later became the Bishop of Ohio and Bishop of Ecusa.
Providing interpretation and illumination of Ezekiel's prophecies, Park uses an exegetical framework to extend symbolic and instinctive analysis to the audience. Providing interpretation and illumination of Ezekiel's prophecies, Park scrutinizes the prophetic characteristics, divine inspiration, and metaphysical intentions of the Book of Ezekiel.
J. R. Park (1778–1847) was educated at Jesus College, Cambridge before becoming Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons.
Providing extensive notes and annotation on the original text of Ezekiel, W. J. Shrewsbury explores the consistent themes of redemption and spiritual renewal, as well as divine inspiration and historical context.
W. J. Shrewsbury (1802–1866) was Minister of the Wesleyan Church. Shrewsbury was author of many titles including Christ Glorified in the Life, Experience, and Character of Joseph B. Shrewsbury, The Family Memorial, and Pastoral Remembrancer, and British Methodism and Slavery.
Expounding on the significance of the Book of Ezekiel, Lofthouse provides critical interpretation of the figurative and literal prose. Explaining similes and allegories alike, the author provides in-depth studies on Ezekiel that encompass its historical and semantic context.
W. F. Lofthouse (1871–1965) was educated at the City of London School and Trinity College at Oxford. Lofthouse was ordained in 1896 and later became was tutor of Old Testament and Philosophy at Handsworth Theological College. He later became President of the Wesleyan Conference in 1929.
Exploring the differences between the Hebrew, Greek, and Latin translations of Ezekiel, E. Henderson provides astute interpretation and synopsis of the prophetical work. Using a combination of syntaxical analysis, denotative and connotative interpretation, and historical context, the author also examines the divine inspiration behind the work.
. . . we consider it a great and valuable addition to the Biblical literature of our times.
—The Christian Witness and Church Member's Magazine
E. Henderson (1784–1858) was educated to the University of Copenhagen. Henderson was notable for organizing the Bible Society in Denmark.

Thread: Sub in driver footwell
Damn, you guys... I would love to have my sub enclosed better than just the stock location, but there's NO WAY I could give up that much foot/knee space. I'm 6'4" and need all the room I can get. Maybe someday I'll rip out or modify the existing bulkhead, but for now I guess my wimpy bass will just have to do.
We are eternal, all this pain is an illusion.
A few observations for everyone.
In my experience the question becomes one of more practical application versus any clear hands down winner of a forward/ rear/up/down firing sealed enclosure. The real question people should be asking is, "can I get a bass reflex box in my boat helm location and not give up to much space."
Sealed enclosures should typically take up a lot less space.
Bass Reflex / Ported / slot vented will take up more space depending on the target volume and tuning.
With all this in mind, why then would anyone want to knowingly give up more space? Good question right? Answer is: A bass reflex enclosure uses the sound from the rear side of the diaphragm to increase the efficiency of the system at low frequencies as compared to a typical closed box loudspeaker or an infinite baffle mounting. This is what creates SPL. It's the Sound Pressure Level that we enjoy as bass. From a musical point of view, adding a sub to your setup will provide almost 2 octaves of sound where your cabin speakers stop. It also allows you to target your cabin speakers with more specific frequencies by running their amplifier in HP mode.
Remember, the goal is to maximize sound pressure level. If we keep our eyes on that goal, the rest is easy.
Jeff - If your going sealed. I'd try to dial down the enclosure to the smallest possible size for the given woofer. The bandpass comment is people telling you things they don't fully understand.
NCSU - Putting subs in the rear of a trunk and bouncing the sound off the rear hatchback glass gives you "cabin effect". I've seen some of this done in the helm area by firing or porting up into the helm cavity.
Kane - Your comments are spot on. He should try things for himself and see the what happens. I put Mandley through a similar process and you all saw his comments. I'd be surprised if Jeff heard any difference....
Morgan - do you have a 15" woofer in that enclosure? thats huge man!
Cheers guys,

I just have a 12" Memphis Mojo but it requires a 3.5 cubic foot box. Thats why its so big.
Morgan - that my friend is one giant box. I'm sure it hits nice and low but in terms of being practical, its pretty ginormous (is that a word?) for a helm. Hell you got no space! But you do have tunes! lol
Check out the enclosure we did for Mandleys ride. It's half that size and a fairly similar woofer to your mojo. He only lost 5 inches of foot space.

I was told by Kicker my sub would perform best firing down. Problem was if I did a down firing box id loose cubic feet and I thought that was more important so I built a standard box, sub facing out.

I totally agree, but.... I have never put my legs under there even when there was room. I have my seat all the way back and the cushon up. I use the box as leverage to sit up higher. I still feel like I cant see over the bow and Im 6 feet tall. Maybe Im just not used to not seeing over the bow.
I tried to find a sub that could take 1000 watts rms at 2 ohms and that was the only one I could find at the time. Then when I went to install it I found out what size box it required....so I just delt with what I had. It sounds amazing but I totally agree, just a "little" big.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) -- Two Detroit men charged in the fatal shooting of Eastern Michigan University football player Demarius Reed are set to go to trial starting July 21.
The 20-year-old wide receiver from Chicago was killed Oct. 18 at his off-campus apartment building in Ypsilanti. Police say Reed's wallet and cellphone were taken.
A pretrial hearing was scheduled Tuesday afternoon for 20-year-old Kristopher Pratt and 21-year-old Ed Thomas in Washtenaw County Trial Court. The Associated Press left messages with the office of Judge Donald E. Shelton and with the prosecutor's office seeking information about the hearing.
Both men face open murder and armed robbery charges. Defense lawyers say there isn't enough evidence that that their clients committed the crimes.

The Pentagon Detours to Terminator PlanetPosted on May 31, 2012
By Nick Turse, TomDispatch (Page 2) In other ways, however, a sci-fi-style future is far off indeed. In fact, after a decade of Defense Department cheerleading, as well as endless TV and newspaper puff pieces on the unlimited potential of drone technology, a grimmer and dimmer future for them is coming into view. As a start, most of the drones in the Pentagon's inventory aren't sophisticated hunter-killer robots, but smaller, unarmed tactical models used only for battlefield surveillance. According to figures provided to TomDispatch by the Army, that service has approximately 5,000 drones, about 1,400 of them currently supporting operations in Afghanistan (where one of their key models, the Shadow, collided with a cargo plane last year). While it has plans to arm increasing numbers of its larger models with munitions, they're hardly the stuff of Hollywood sci-fi flicks. Even the Predator and the Reaper are little more than expensive, error-prone, overgrown model airplanes remotely "flown" by all-too-human pilots. They tend to crash at an alarming rate due to weather, mechanical failures, and computer glitches, leaving shattered silver-screen techno-dreams of cheap, error-free, futuristic warfare in the dust. Today's armed drones are actually the weak sisters of the weapons world. Even the Reaper is slow, clumsy, unarmored, generally unable to perceive threats around it, and—writes defense expert Winslow Wheeler—"fundamentally incapable of defending itself." While Reapers have been outfitted with missiles for theoretical air-to-air combat capabilities, those armaments would be functionally useless in a real-world dogfight. Similarly, in a 2011 report, the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board admitted that modern air defense systems "would quickly decimate the current Predator/Reaper fleet and be a serious threat against the high-flying Global Hawk." Unlike that MQ-1000 of 2030, today's top drone would be a sitting duck if any reasonably armed enemy wanted to take it on. In this sense, as in many others, it compares unfavorably to current manned combat aircraft. The Navy's even newer MQ-8B Fire Scout, a much-hyped drone helicopter that has been tested as a weapons platform, has also gone bust. Not only was one shot down in Libya last year, but repeated crashes have caused the Navy to ground the robo-copter "for the indefinite future." Even the highly classified RQ-170 Sentinel couldn't stay airborne over Iran during a secret mission that suddenly became very public last year. Whether or not an Iranian attack brought down the drone, the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board report makes it clear that there are numerous methods by which remotely piloted aircraft can potentially be thwarted or downed, from the use of lasers and dazzlers to blind or damage sensors to simple jammers to disrupt global positioning systems, not to mention a wide range of cyber-attacks, the jamming of commercial satellite communications, and the spoofing or hijacking of drone data links. Smaller tactical unmanned aircraft may be even more susceptible to low-tech attacks, not to mention constrained in their abilities and cumbersome to use. Sergeant Christopher Harris, an Army drone pilot and infantryman, described the limitations of the larger of the two hand-launched drones he's operated in Afghanistan this way: the 13-pound Puma was best used from an observation post with some elevation; it only had a 12-mile range and, though theoretically possible to take on patrol, was "a beast to carry around" once the weight of extra batteries and equipment was factored in. Terminators of Tomorrow? As for the future, the Air Force's 2011-2036 Roadmap has already hit a major detour. In 2010, Air Force magazine breathlessly announced, "Early in the next decade, the Air Force will deploy a new, stealthy RPA—currently called the MQ-X—capable of surviving in heavily defended airspace and performing a wide variety of ISR [intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance] and strike missions." Indeed, the 2011 Roadmap lists the MQ-X as the future of Air Force drones. In February 2012 however, Lieutenant General Larry James told an Aviation Week-sponsored conference: "At this point… we don't plan, in the near term, to invest in any sort of MQ-X like program." Instead, James said, the Air Force will be content simply to upgrade the Reaper fleet and watch the Navy's development of its Unmanned Carrier-Launched Airborne Surveillance and Strike or UCLASS drone to see if it soars or, like so many RPAs, crashes and burns.

AMS is helping JayDee get HUGE with the Anabolic Kit RD!!!!
AMS is helping JayDee get HUGE with the Anabolic Kit RD!!!!
194.5lbs starting weight this AM
10%-ish BF
2 months after my first NPC National Qualifier competition
Gain as much muscle and strength as possible while maintaining a relatively low body fat.
Staple Supplements:
AMS Body Mortar Carb Free - 2 scoops intra-workout
AMS HypertropX - 4 tabs 30min pre-wo
AMS Pump Fixx - 3 scoops when i need that "boost."
Isopure Zero Carb Protein
Anabolic Kit RD Dosing:
1-Andro - 5 tabs/day in divided doses
4-AD - 5 tabs/day in divided doses
Decavol - 5 tabs/day in divided doses
My diet I cannot give away, but it's basically zero carbs on non-training days and carbs on training days. NO, i'm not dieting, i'm trying to gain weight. By doing this, your body processes carbs and uses them much more efficiently and you stay lean while still growing. I don't believe in bulking and cutting, I HATE feeling or looking fat lol.
I train heavy and intense. 8-12 reps for upper body and 12-15 for lower body. I drop set EVERYTHING and rest about 10-15sec between sets. I generally do 3 sets of everything and throw in a 4th drop set randomly. I also do static holds and DC extreme stretching. This (for me) is the best method for achieving strength, growth, and shape faster than anything else. I keep intensity as high as possible.
The cycle will last as long as the tabs last. I have 3 boxes and would GREATLY like to thank Dave, Royd, and AMS for this awesome opportunity! They are an awesome sponsor, company, and their continuous support is astounding! If anyone has any questions about ANYTHING at all, PLEASE don't hesitate to ask. Whether it be training, diet, food prep, recipes, competing, etc. This forum along with MANY other people, have taught me everything I know. I want to give back to everyone in all ways possible. I will be posting before and after pics as wellAdvanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete - 01-19-2011, 11:39 PM

This was an AWESOME workout! Intensity/aggression was insane. I haven't trained this intense and aggressively in quite some time. I felt very strong and powerful, much more so than usual. Strength is going up nicely, I just hope my weight follows along with it. I thought it was odd at first, but I noticed that roughly 20min after dosing, I got a hard-on. That goes to show that blood levels really do peak 15-20min after dosing. I dissolve 1 tab of 1-andro, 1-ad, and decavol under my tongue at each dose. I just do all 3 at the same time for convenience. I work in a pharmacy all day, so it'd be hard to talk due to dissolving multiple tabs under my tongue haha. It's quicker to just do all 3 at once. I hope this cycle continues to be this much funAdvanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete - 01-21-2011, 01:29 AM
Subbed. Check out my log on AMS kit! You are much bigger than me so I am doing the recommended dose of 2/day, considering jumping to 3/day.
I am up 8lbs over 17 days so I hope to get a solid 12lbs or so.
Strength jumped quickly, the wt started at the beginning of week 2. You might experience similar results.
Share any tips/insight please! What is your PCT? - 01-21-2011, 01:48 AM
Ab shot just to show where my body fat is...holding some water for sure due to adding in yams, oats, and rice. It used to be almost strictly fruit as my carb source. Also added in more red meat for extra calories and fat.
Advanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete -
I will sub to it now Yea, i chose the 5/day to in hopes of superb results. Everyone's been telling me how huge i'm looking lately, but i'm having a bad case of bigorexia lol. I feel small and want to put on as much quality size as possible, as well as strength. Wow! 8lbs in about 3 weeks is great for a legal OTC supp huh!? That's why I love AMS and am proud to be sponsored by them. PCT is a secret
A great tip that I wish I had when first starting out is: don't just eat as much food as you possibly can just to get bigger. Yes you will get bigger, but you will also get a lot fatter over time. Have patience and eat healthy and smart. In all seriousness though, anything you would like to know, just ask. I'm a personal trainer as well. I don't mean I have a certificate and no true knowledge like most, I mean i love to help others to meet their bodybuilding or fitness goals via proper training, lifestyle, and nutrition. Most trainers these days don't even have their own way of doing things, they just do whatever the current "big thing" is. I just do what works best from my own experiences and experiences i've had with other peopleAdvanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete - 01-21-2011, 12:08 PM
Day 3 - weight is 190 this AM. Down 4.5lbs that's kind of odd...

Advanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete - 01-22-2011, 09:53 AM
I'm in to follow along. I have a pretty similar approach to my dietbas well right now.
Cool Lean gains are the way to go man. I'm done with the whole bulking/cutting idea. It's just not efficient...Get fat and gain some muscle, then cut down and get shredded...OOOORRRRRR stay lean and gain that same amount(or more) of muscle, then come show time, you don't have to change your diet so drastically and it's much easier. Traditional bulking just spills you over, makes your insulin sensitivity go wayyyy down, and just screws up the way your body processes things. The human body is a machine, you gotta make it run as efficiently as possible all the time. Not just only when you want to get shredded. Sorry for the rant lol.

For chest I like to do the most difficult press first: incline, then I do flat of decline. That way the weight does not change too much because the exercise is easier than the previous.
For triceps I have never done reverse grip bench, might have to give it a go. Saw some guys doing them today. - 01-26-2011, 01:20 AM

Sorry I haven't had time to take pics, life is crazy right now. We're in the middle of getting ready to move across the country, so we have a LOT to do. I WILL get them posted though VERY soon! Forgot to weigh myself this AM, sorry about that as well lol. I remembered at about 11am, but I already had 2 meals by then, so that wouldn't have been my real weight.
This session went very well. I felt pretty tired all day long, but I also ate wayyy more carbs than usual. I ate a 16" sausage pizza and 1/2 dozen garlic knots But it was ssssoooo good. I haven't cheated in a while, so I thought I would today. I felt real strong and powerful tonight and had great motivation/intensity.Advanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete - 01-26-2011, 01:27 AM
I have always done flat presses first because the actual upper pectoral muscle is so small, that it really doesn't make all that much difference anyway. The entire pec area is stimulated with flat presses, both upper and lower pecs. Sure, incline movements do target the upper area more, but it is negligible. My whole damn chest needs improvement anyway, lol. I like the reverse grip bench because it hits the inner chest a lot, as well as the tris...plus it's very hard to do perform haha. I'd never try it without the smythe machine.

WEEK 1 REVIEW: I am horny ALL the time, my pumps are very pronounced in the gym as well as overall vascularity, strength is going up nicely, my mood is good, appetite is about the same, and my skin is a tad more oily than usual. One can only expect that when any hormone fluctuation occurs though. So far, I give this stack a thumbs up!
Advanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete - 01-26-2011, 01:43 AM
More pics bro. Looking pretty cut up in that one still.
Oh, not to worry. I will get them ASAP. I'm having some tough times right now, but i'm trying the best I can to keep my head up. My parents dog(and my dog) of 11yrs(had her since i was about 16) has cancer and they are putting her to sleep next weekend. My dad doesn't want to take her to have it done and I don't blame him, but that means my mom must d it on her own. The dog is a part of our family, a sibling to me, and child to my parents. Well on top of that terrible thing, my wife, son, and I are moving to NY that same weekend. So my parents are also losing that so very close relationship with their new grandson, daughter-in-law, and son that they so desperately wanted to come live in the same city as they do. We have lived here for about 6yrs and now we're moving. Such terrible timing for everything and horrible events. I'm excited to go back home because the rest of my family and friends live in NY, and my wife has never been anywhere but NM, AZ, and CO. At the same time, I am just about traumatized from losing our beloved dog, and knowing what my mom has to go through. She is THE strongest person I have ever known, and I know she can get through this as well as my dad, but it's just such a sad sad thing to happen. What makes it even worse is my wife is pregnant and they are unaware of that. I am afraid to tell them due to all that's going on. Not only would they be losing their son, grandson, daughter-in-law, and beloved dog, but also their unborn grandchild This sucks beyond belief...

Had a good session. Felt strong, but I was very tired and exhausted at the same time. Vascularity and striations looked sick, but I didn't have anyone there that I knew to take pics. I wasn't about to ask a total stranger to take pics of me either lol. I will get them soon though, I promise.Advanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete - 01-29-2011, 10:39 AM
Damn man my dog died of cancer when I was 9 and I still remember the day my dad and I buried him. It was rough. So I feel for you and your family.
Strong lat pulldowns man. - 01-30-2011, 12:57 AM
ya it will be rough, but its for the best. She doesn't need to suffer anymore. Thanks man I dunno what's been going on with lat pulldowns...each week I go up five to ten pounds. It has been happening every week since I did my show. I'm definitely not complaining lol, but its definitely the strongest I've ever been on that exercise. My goal is to squat and deadlift 405x10 and most of all to bench 225x10. My bench is so weak cuz I've always used DB never BB. So I'm kind of starting from scratch with regular BB bench press.
Advanced Muscle Science/Forerunner Labs Sponsored Athlete - 01-30-2011, 02:12 AM
I am experiencing the same thing, my lat pd have never been this heavy.
I am the opposite, chest is my strong area; once put up 305. But my high in DL and squat is around the same at 315. Most people have a good difference between bench and squat #s, I gotta get my bottom half up in strength. Then again it is not a huge priority since I play soccer and do triathlons, need my endurance and reflexes not raw power.-OMEGA RecoverBro-
When an omega male is born it's game over
I'd never even attempt 305 lol. Too afraid of an injury, plus I train alone. Right now im at 345 for about 12-15 on squat, and DL is 385x12, so i'm getting closer, but it just REALLY pisses me off that so many people at my gym do 225 for reps pretty easily and my physique is so much better than theirs. I'm one of only 3 bodybuilders in my gym, everyone else drinks and parties on the weekend and just lifts for looks i'm assuming. I train my ass off and eat my ass off, and they SLACK off, and manage to bench more than me lol. My chest is my most lagging body part too, so I know the strength and size will come, but like everyone else, I want it NOW lol.

WEEK 2 REVIEW: The strength increases keep coming, i'm still horny 24/7, not sure about weight cuz I forgot to weigh myself this morning, pumps in and out of the gym are great, overall mood is good considering everything that's on my plate right now, and my veins pop everywhere during training. I REALLY would like to record at least a set from one of my workouts, but my wife's schedule is totally different than mine so it's difficult. My wife's parents are living with us until saturday when we move to NY, since they are the one's buying our house, so pictures haven't happened yet either. I'm really sorry, all of this definitely wasn't planned. I WILL deliver though I promise! If all else fails, I will just tell her parents "listen, i need pics for my log, so i'm going to take them in the living room, but i must warn you i'll be in my armani boxer briefs, so I suggest you go into another room if you don't want to see it lol." They're ALWAYS here, so I dunno what else to do. It's very annoying, but it's only for a few more days. Then its off to NY baby!!!! WOOOOTT!!!

A pair of victories over major-conference opponents aren't cause for celebration in the eyes of Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald, whose lofty expectations for his squad still have him focused on improvement.
The 17th-ranked Wildcats are buying into his message.
Northwestern seeks its 15th straight non-conference home victory as it faces winless Western Michigan on Saturday night.
"There's nobody walking around here feeling we've arrived, I can promise you that," Fitzgerald said. "We are far from the team we're capable of being in all three phases."
That tone is familiar coming from Fitzgerald, who expects Northwestern (2-0) to contend for its first Big Ten title since being part of a three-way tie in 2000. The Wildcats beat California on the road 44-30 on Aug. 31 despite starting quarterback Kain Colter suffering a concussion on the second play, then defeated Syracuse 48-27 last week without injured running back Venric Mark.
"This is a very hungry, very focused ball club that has a determined approach to the way we're working right now," Fitzgerald said. "I'm looking forward to watching the way they work this week."
The Wildcats have done pretty well so far. They racked up 581 yards of total offense against Syracuse without committing a turnover, and the defense had four interceptions.
Linebacker Chi Chi Ariguzo had a pick in the final minute of the first half for Northwestern, which has seven on the season to tie with Tennessee for the most in the country.
"Everyone's just focused on getting better and getting ready to play the next game," Ariguzo said. "We've got to keep our mindset that we can get better each week. We don't want to take any week for granted."
Northwestern doesn't want to get caught looking ahead to its showdown with No. 4 Ohio State on Oct. 5 with games against Western Michigan (0-2) and Maine, an FCS opponent, the next two weeks.
"You've always got to expect you're going to get the opponent's A game. So the focus is always on us," Fitzgerald said. "It's the way we prepare."
Colter seemed more than ready for last week's contest, finishing 15 for 18 for 116 yards and a touchdown while running for 87 and a score. He split time with pocket passer Trevor Siemian, who went 15 for 19 for 259 yards with three touchdowns and ranks 12th in the country at 16.2 yards per completion.
"He was really hungry to play," Fitzgerald said of Colter.
Fitzgerald used a similar description when discussing Marks, whose lower-body injury could keep him off the field again Saturday and possibly until the Ohio State contest. Backup Treyvon Green ran for 129 yards and two TDs on 16 carries after Marks went down against Cal, then finished with 66 yards and a touchdown last week.
Tony Jones, who caught nine passes for 185 yards and a score against Syracuse, is tied atop the Big Ten with 14 receptions for a Wildcats offense averaging 544.5 yards.
"We thought he'd be an impact player in what we do," Fitzgerald said. "He's really lived up to that everyday."
Things haven't gone as well for Western Michigan. After posting only 11 rushing yards in a 26-13 loss to Michigan State on Aug. 30, it suffered a 27-23 home loss last week to FCS opponent Nicholls State.
Quarterback Tyler Van Tubbergen went 24 for 43 for 254 yards, but his two interceptions gave him four with zero touchdowns this season.
"We knew this was going to be a tough year," 32-year-old first-year coach P.J. Fleck said. "You've heard me say that this is going to be a building year. We have to dig a little deeper in to the foundation now."
Northwestern hasn't lost a non-conference game at home since falling 20-14 to Duke on Sept. 15, 2007.

Shropshire farmers come to terms with Schmallenberg virus
The humble midge is usually seen as an irritant rather than a threat. But just try telling that to farmers affected by the Schmallenberg virus.
Spread by the insects, the disease leads to malformed newborns in pregnant ewes and cattle, reduced milk production from cows, and increasing headaches for producers already coming to terms with the effect of a difficult 2012.
Now the disease is spreading across Shropshire – and the rest of the UK – at a rate of knots.
Figures released by Defra in January showed that Shropshire had seen more cases than any county outside the South West of England, where the disease is at its most prevalent, including two recorded reports of lamb deformations.
But updated figures released to the Shropshire Star show that the number of cases has accelerated since – and the number of cases of malformed lambs has increased as the lambing season has developed.
At the most recent count, 66 cases had been recorded in the county, including 12 in sheep, and four cases of lambing abnormalities.
As the lambing season continues, that number will almost certainly grow. There have so far been no recorded incidents of deformed calves.
It may not sound like an awful lot, but looking at the way the disease has spread causes more consternation.
As of February 24 last year, 76 cases had been discovered in the whole country, and none in Shropshire. It wasn't until late October that the first reports of Schmallenberg were registered in the county.
It has now been detected in every county in England, and has spread quickly across county farms.
Even those figures, some farmers say, don't come close to reflecting the severity of the situation.
Richard Yates has lambed 400 ewes so far this year on his farm near Bridgnorth, with another 400 still to come in March and April, and says the suggestion that only four farms have suffered lambing abnormalities is wide of the mark.
"It's absolute bunkum," he said. "Everybody has Schmallenberg.
"I went to do a blood sample on my dairy herd, and the vet said, 'There's no point, as every herd in Shropshire has tested positive for Schmallenberg'.
"About 10 per cent of my lambs were born dead or with Schmallenberg virus. They have rigid, fused limbs, and some have some quite grotesque deformities. Their legs are fragile, and break as you lamb them, or they can't come out of the ewes."
He added: "When you're dealing with sheep and multiple litter sizes, one becomes used to deformities in lambs. This is something quite different, as the limbs are rigid.
"I have 100 cows, and we haven't seen the deformities in them, but we have had reduced milk yields."
Of course, disease in livestock is nothing new to farmers, and the latest outbreak does not rank on the scale of BSE or foot and mouth in its severity.
It also follows blue tongue disease, which was tackled with a vaccine, and a similar preventative measure is currently being developed for Schmallenberg – but is not yet ready to roll out onto farms.
Philippa and John Owen run a farm at Shobdon, near Ludlow, and suffered from a lengthy bout of Schmallenberg which has left them grasping for information on how to combat the disease.
Over the course of a devastating fortnight, the disease took hold of the farm's 550-strong sheep flock. Around 100 lambs died in birth.
Mrs Owen said: "We started lambing just after Christmas, and the first 23 or 24 born were fine.
"We were aware of Schmallenberg being about, and had heard one or two people had it, and after that first few days we had a lot of Schmallenberg lambs – 19 in three days, and it lasted a fortnight."
The disease went away and came back, and struck even after tests had shown the flock was clear of the disease.
"We had a few ewes that looked a little bare once they were in the shed, and with hindsight they were generally the ewes with these lambs," Mrs Owen added.
"It came in all sorts of forms. We had fused joints, some with their heads back with their necks totally fused, some with knees bending outwards, some bent out at the shoulder with the toes pointing inwards, some ewes that had one affected lamb and one unaffected.
"It's devastating, and it changed our approach into a salvage job, from a profitable lambing job."
Those lambs that do survive may often be unable to be transported to market because of the problems with their limbs, while the birthing ewes can suffer internal damage if the signs of
Schmallenberg are not picked up early in the birthing process. When they are, vets are called in.
The disease is named after the town in central Germany where it was first located in 2011, and from where it spread across Europe.
Midges that bite infected livestock themselves carry the disease then give it to other animals, causing its increasing spread.
Carole Brizuela is a senior lecturer in the Animal Production, Welfare and Veterinary Sciences Department at Harper Adams University, near Newport.
She said: "There are other diseases in the same viral group in Asia and Africa, but it appeared in Europe, the Netherlands and Germany, in 2011, and it hadn't been recognised before, it's an emerging disease.
"Viruses change, and there's always new diseases arriving."
In recent weeks, the rapidity of the disease's spread has eased slightly, as the number of midges in the air has declined, but that doesn't mean the problem is going away.
The Government has so far treated Schmallenberg as a disease with relatively low impact, but is monitoring its spread.
In a statement, Defra said: "Schmallenberg is spread quickly by midges and our surveillance over the summer has shown that the disease is now present across England.
"Evidence from Europe and our own research suggests that some infected cows show symptoms such as diarrhoea, fever and reduced milk yield, with a full recovery over several days.
"Like in sheep, the main impact on cattle occurs if animals are infected during pregnancy, which can lead to malformed newborns.
"Once animals have been infected by Schmallenberg they develop a good level of immunity to protect them from infection the following year.
"Farmers concerned about other symptoms affecting their flocks or herds should contact their vet for advice."
The statement added: "More research is ongoing both in Europe and in the UK to better understand the disease and assist the pharmaceutical industry in the development of vaccines.
"We understand that applications have been made to the Veterinary Medicines Directorate, who are checking both the vaccines' effectiveness and safety before approving them for use. We hope a vaccine will be ready for use in the breeding season later this year."

Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP) is the only international network of students dedicated to ending the war on drugs. At its heart, SSDP is a grassroots organization, led by a student-run Board of Directors. We create change by bringing young people together and creating safe spaces for students of all political and ideological stripes to have honest conversations about drugs and drug policy. Founded in 1998, SSDP comprises thousands of members at hundreds of campuses in countries around the globe.
Mission Statement
Students for Sensible Drug Policy is an international grassroots network of students who are concerned about the impact drug abuse has on our communities, but who also know that the War on Drugs is failing our generation and our society.
SSDP mobilizes and empowers young people to participate in the political process, pushing for sensible policies to achieve a safer and more just future, while fighting back against counterproductive Drug War policies, particularly those that directly harm students and youth.
Key Values
- Shared power and authority
- Youth-controlled agenda
- Collaboration and partnership
- Constituent-specific strategies
- Learning
- Diversity and inclusion
Values Statement
SSDP neither condones nor condemns drug use, rather we respect the right of individuals to make decisions about their own health and well-being. We encourage honest conversation about the realities of the drug war. We promote youth civic engagement as a critical tool in reforming drug policy. SSDP respects the diverse experiences and identities of our constituents. We develop leaders who advocate for policy changes based on justice, liberty, compassion and reason.
SSDP's Structure as a Grassroots Organization
SSDP is comprised of student chapters all across the world. Any student anywhere can start a chapter. While SSDP has a variety of national campaigns and actions that everyone can participate in, chapters are also encouraged to work on those issues that have the most traction in their own communities. Annually SSDPers convene for a national conference. There, students acquire essential activist knowledge and skills. Also, chapters elect students to serve on SSDP's Board of Directors. The Board in turn selects and oversees SSDP's executive director, who is responsible for tending to both the day-to-day operations of the organization, as well as its long-term direction. An important duty of the executive director is to hire and manage staff. Currently, besides an executive director, SSDP has a deputy director, and two outreach directors. Ultimately, the SSDP staff exists to serve and represent SSDP's chapters and activists. Click here to meet the SSDP staff and Board.
Legally, SSDP consists of two separate, distinct entities – Students for Sensible Drug Policy Foundation and Students for Sensible Drug Policy Inc. The former, as a 501(c)3 organization, engages in education and outreach. Donations to SSDP Foundation are tax-deductible. SSDP Inc, as a 501(c)4 organization, engages in advocacy, or attempts to effect change to law and policy. Accordingly, donations to SSDP Inc are not tax-deductible.

In the fall of 1996, members of the Student Drug Reform Movement (SDRM) begin to chat over the internet using a Drug Reform Coordination Network (DRCNet) discussion page. In 1997, the Rochester Cannabis Coalition (RCC) at the Rochester Institute of Technology applied to become the first official student organization dedicated to fighting the War on Drugs; RIT denied RCC's application and ultimately expelled the lead organizer, Shea Gunther '98, who would go on to become an SSDP founder. In winter 1998, SDRM members at University of Massachusetts-Amherst hosted a conference for about 50 students, many of whom would go on to join Shea in founding SSDP.
- That conference led to the First National Gathering in Washington, DC the following year, where attendees decided to collectively to form SSDP into a national organization and elect a board of directors comprised of one representative from each of the five schools that had chapters operating under the SSDP name (Hampshire College, University of Wisconsin-Madison, George Washington University, American University, and Rochester Institute of Technology). SSDP undertook a series of actions and events which contributed to partial repeal of the Higher Education Act Aid Elimination Penalty (HEAAEP), our first political victory:
- January 2000 – First National Action. At and around the College Convention 2000 in New Hampshire, SSDP students protested the HEAAEP.
- Spring 2000 – First Loan Replacement Program. Hampshire College instituted the first HEAAEP loan replacement program and its president was the first to come out against the HEAAEP.
- March 3, 2001 – Legislation to Repeal. A coalition of U.S. House Democrats introduced legislation that would repeal a moratorium on federal financial aid to college students with drug convictions, citing denial of aid for 8,162 students that school year.
- March 15, 2001 – "Students VS. the Drug War." An article featuring SSDP appeared in Rolling Stone. HEAAEP victim Marisa Garcia '00 was profiled and the article marked SSDP's big break into public awareness.
- Spring 2001 – Colleges Urge Change. Five Oregon colleges passed resolutions urging changes to the HEAAEP. Thirteen leading education associations representing admissions officers, community and state colleges, financial aid administrators and student groups sent a strongly worded letter outlining flaws in the HEAAEP to the head of the DEA.
- February 2002 – Souder Confronted About HEAAEP. Members of SSDP attended an event to get long-awaited answers from Rep. Mark Souder (R-IN) about the HEAAEP legislation he authored.
- April 9, 2002 – Yale Begins Reimbursement. Yale became the fourth college to reimburse students who have lost aid due to the HEAAEP.
- 2006 – Partial Repeal of the HEA. Congress, responding to pressure from SSDP and other advocates, scaled back the HEA Aid Elimination Penalty, taking away its "reachback effect" so that it would only affect students convicted for offenses that occur while they are enrolled in college and receiving aid.
SSDP's efforts to repeal the HEAAEP provided a model that has led to development of the student network for the past sixteen years. The actions, educational events, and collaborations undertaken to modify the HEA have led to, among other things, the four or more annual Regional SSDP Conferences which began in 2001 and continue to provide students with their best opportunities to become informed advocates. The 2001 Amherst Coffee Ban was among the first student-led and campus-based actions to confront the role of drug prohibition campus-wide; inventive and thought-provoking campus actions continue to grab students' attention to illustrate the harms of prohibition. Students publicly pose questions to candidates and elected officials to get them "On the Record" about drug policy reform, much like the public conversation with Souder in 2002. The DRCNet listserv lives today as SSDPTalk, a listerv for students, alumni, staff, members, and other stakeholders. And to this day, SSDP seeks to build bridges with organizations not primarily focused on the War on Drugs to end its collateral consequences such as overincarceration, racism, and educational and economic injustice.
Since its inception, SSDP has expanded from a single chapter in upstate New York created by a handful of students with a powerful vision to a network of about 200 chapters nationwide working to implement that vision on their campuses, in their communities and states, and at the federal level.
Marijuana Today — a podcast hosted by SSDP founders — recorded a special episode at SSDP2014, the Students for Sensible Drug Policy International Conference, with Stacia Cosner '05, Shaleen Title '02, Shea Gunther '98, Shawn Heller '98, Dan Goldman '99, and Kris Krane '98 joining host Kris Lotlikar '98. The panel discusses how they each became involved in SSDP as they relay the history of the student organization that has been successfully working to end the drug war for over 16 years.

Releasing God's Love
We have been talking about pursuing love in the last couple of devotionals. Today I want to go to a passage where Scripture gives us a snapshot of what God's love looks like. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8,
Love suffers long and is kind (a lot of people suffer long, but they are not very kind while they do it); love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own; is not provoked (it is not touchy or fretful or resentful); thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
What you just read about the love of God is already inside of you if you are a Christian. It is not something outside of you that you need to seek. It is something that is in you that needs to be released.
Romans 5:5 tells us,
Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
God's love has already been poured into your heart! The ability to do everything in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 is already in you. You have the ability to not be touchy, or fretful, or resentful, or seek your own or insist on your own rights; to suffer long and to be kind; to believe the best of every person.
The Bible is not talking about pursuing love as though it is something that is vacant from your life. Rather, you are to pursue the expression of that love purposely and let it work its way into your words and actions.
