Q: Have we considered providing more tanking leather and to prevent extra loot clutter possibly finding ways for Balance and Restoration druids to use solely cloth item since they often use them already?This comment doesn't address the Cloth vs Leather debate directly, but expect a lot of clothies and raid leaders to use this comment to exclude druids from rolling/bidding on cloth.
Ghostcrawler: No. Druids are a leather-using class. We are just going to have to make three types of leather (melee, ranged and healing). You have to understand that even though we have pushed bears and cats farther apart, we still consider them to be part of the same spec. We can't get into the business of itemizing for niches within a particular spec or we're just going to have too many items per tier. I can see the argument for having tanking and dps leather and making the casters use cloth. That's just a different design and we currently like for certain classes to be associated with certain types of armor. We like that druids look different from say priests or mages (even ignoring the forms thing). We like that we can kit druid tier piece armor to look a certain way.
Also note that if we buffed bear mitigation through more tanking-oriented leather that we'd just have to nerf them in other ways. In my experience, most bears end up with "tanking leather" anyway because they want to gem and enchant their bear gear differently. Having one set of gear that you wear as cat or bear isn't really feasible in Ulduar.
However, lets focus on what Ghostcrawler actually said. He said "Druids are a leather-using class." He did not say that druids should only use leather, or that druids should not wear cloth. He is saying druids are designed to use leather and I think we all know that. If there was quality Leather gear similar to the cloth equivalents then I would freely pass. However, a majority of Cloth gear is better itemized for Caster DPS then the Leather equivalents. On top of that the quantity of cloth gear is significantly higher especially at the high item levels.
In the end GC's comment probably won't change much in how guilds are ran. I am fairly sure that if GC came out and said moonkin are designed to wear cloth, then clothies would still say they should have first dibs. This is one of those debates where the sides are fairly well entrenched and I don't think anything could move them.
Other Comments:
There are the other Moonkin relevant comments from the Q&A:
Community Team: Let's take a look at the Balance talent tree. Eclipse is a crucial talent for players who are looking to perform a damage dealing role and invest in the Balance tree. There has been a lot of discussion though regarding the gameplay it provides as there is a lot of randomness involved. The buffs to a solar rotation were very well received, but the lunar rotation still has to wait for a critical strike to happen as well as an additional random proc to occur which can lead to some long gaps of nothing happening. Then when these finally fall into place players have complained about threat issues which force them to slow down or having to move to avoid something which ruins the procs they have and significantly hurts their overall damage.
Q: What are our thoughts on how Eclipse is functioning and do we have any plans to change how this talent works?
Ghostcrawler: The goal of the Eclipse talent in the first place was to give moonkin a more dynamic rotation that involved the player paying attention and responding to the environment rather than falling into a monotonous rotation. The Eclipse in 3.2 should less strongly favor one half of the Eclipse over the other since the cooldowns are independent. Ultimately however the problem we are trying to solve is that Wrath and Starfire are just too similar. In PvP you get a little bit of interest out of the fact that they are in different schools, but in PvE by the time talents are factored in, the two spells just become fairly quick (but not instant) nukes and it's easy to math out which one to use and which one to ignore. Long-term to fix this problem we need to add another spell, separate out Starfire and Wrath from each other a little more, or make one of the other spells, like Moonfire or Insect Swarm, more dynamic. I'll give a couple of example of caster rotations that "work" in our opinion: Destruction warlocks want to Immolate before they Conflagrate, Frost mages can proc a Brain Freeze and throw out a fast Fireball.
Community Team: Another aspect of Balance talent tree that has seen a number of discussions lately is the survivability of Moonkins while in a Player vs. Player setting. Many players agree that they have a very low survivability rate and that a spell like Typhoon doesn't provide enough help to prevent classes like Death Knights and Rogues from doing some serious damage to them.
Q: How do we feel Moonkins are doing in PvP and do we have plans to improve their survivability?
Ghostcrawler: We don't think Moonkins are quite there yet, though
we'll see how they look after 3.2 ships. Some of their problems are not
limitations with the spec so much as they are ramifications in other parts of the PvP environment, such as some classes being able to burst them down too quickly. Of the casters, and as of this writing, only Frost mages really seem to be a potent PvP force, but it requires multiple forms of CC and escape mechanisms to get there. We really don't want to go down the road of every caster needing that many unique tools – it homogenizes the classes and makes the mage tools less compelling. We understand some players are desperate to play Balance in PvP, but our priority is on getting underperforming classes viable before we worry about the second or third spec of classes that already have a strong PvP presence. We'll get there.
Community Team: Players have also been discussing how they feel the overall playstyle of a Moonkin is just not very exciting. The best damage dealing rotation for them requires very few spells and a deep Balance spell like Starfall doesn't help them very much.
Q: Are there plans to make any changes to the general spell rotation for deep Balance/Moonkin Druids?
Ghostcrawler: As I mentioned above, we do want to improve the spell rotation of Balance. We think the spells are interesting when considered alone (expect for perhaps Starfire and Wrath) but they don't necessarily play together in interesting ways. You don't try to save up a Starfall for example for great synergy with another spell. We have no problems with Starfall itself -- it is an AE with smart targeting that doesn't require channeling. It is basically just bonus damage. Often players with a gripe about Starfall are wishing that it still proc'ed stuns with Celestial Focus or was a stealth remover. But those uses meant players saved Starfall for only those specific situations instead of using it when they needed extra damage, which was the original intent.
There is nothing huge here. Most of these comments have already been made before, and anyone that follows moonkin closely has already heard them. That said, there are some interesting comments made regarding the moonkin rotation.
He reiterated that the problem with Moonkin rotation is that it involves too few spells and that those spells are too similar. What is interesting about his comment are the possible solutions he suggested.
Long-term to fix this problem we need to add another spell, separate out Starfire and Wrath from each other a little more, or make one of the other spells, like Moonfire or Insect Swarm, more dynamic.
First off, please note this is a list of possibilities, not a definite plan of action. If the next expansion comes without a new DPS spell don't go and say "GC lied to us."
That said, I like the idea of a new spell. I had always thought about it as giving us a direct damage spell that doesn't interfere with Eclipse, but adding something to be a more significant part of our rotation would be interesting also. The big question is can they create a spell that is desirable but doesn't trump any of our existing spells?
I also thought it was very interesting that he suggested that they might "separate out Starfire and Wrath from each other a little more." I would love to know what options they are considering, since these spells are critical for Eclipse to work. Since Eclipse is such a big part of Moonkin DPS changing either of these spells significantly would have a huge impact on Moonkin DPS. I'm not saying it would be a bad impact, but it could fundamentally change the way the spec is played.
The comment about making the DoTs more dynamic seems to have been in practice for a little while already. It started with the addition of Improved Insect Swarm. Now they seem to be expanding the concept with the new set bonuses. In fact 4T8 and 2T9 could be a trial runs for a new talents that might come later.
While all of these comments provoke some thought don't expect any changes anytime soon. They are definitely not coming in 3.2 and I would be extremely surprised if we saw any hit of them in 3.3. My guess is that these comments are an outline of what Blizzard is thinking about for the next expansion that is likely to be named at Blizzcon.

1967 Topps WHO AM I ?NM/MINT to MINT COMPLETE 1976 Crane Potato Chip Football Discs Set.
It's easy to see why the 1967 Topps "Who Am I? set is a favorite of both sports and non- sport collectors. The set's 44 cards feature mostly important figures from world history but what makes this set even more popular was the inclusion of 4 of baseball's most popular players: Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Sandy Koufax !!!
The players picture on the front is covered with a scratch-off disguise with silly, exaggerated features like hair, moustaches, hats, noses... and clues to help kids identify the famous person pictured. The backs contained additional clues and instructions to "Scratch off disguise on front to discover Who I Am. Use a coin or fingernail."
Cards with their scratch-off coating intact are worth many, many times cards with the coatings removed. For example, NM/MINT Babe Ruth with the coating is in the $200-$400 range while a NM/MINT Ruth with the coating removed is closer to $25.

1969 Topps StampsThis was Topps 3rd stamp issue in the last eight years and it was a good one !!! The stamps were not inserts but a totally separate issue . For a nickel you got a strip of twelve stamps plus a mini album. The 1969 Topps Stamps complete set contains 240 stamps. The 1 x 1-7/16 inch stamps were unnumbered and featured a color photo with the player's name, team and position inside a colored banner at the bottom of the stamp. The stamps were released in both vertical and horizontal strips of 12 stamps. The 1969 Topps Stamps are often confused with Topps' 1974 issue. The 1974 Topps Stamps have ovals rather than banners at the bottom and were released only in 12-stamp horizontal panels.
Along with the stamps, Topps also issued a set of 24 albums, one per team, to store them in. The 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" orange albums were the same size as a baseball card and held a complete 10-stamp team set. To add even more collecting fun, the album's back cover had facsimile autographs of the ten players shown in the album.

I am currently trying to correct an oversupply and overactive letdown. I also have cracked nipples that are more like craters than cracks. I am sure it is from a poor latch due to my little guy gagging and fighting my letdowns during nursing.
Have any other mothers experiences this issue? I am thinking my nipples might heal after I return to work in January, but wanted to see if there was anything I could do now to help them heal.
Thanks in advance for any advice or past experiences.
Note: I don't remember having an oversupply with my first son, but I think I had a heavy let down since we thought my son had colic for 6 months, but it might have been from my letdown making him so gassy.

Life in Christian County, Kentucky...
I am going to say this is a 1957 Chevy, and if I'm wrong, I am sure someone will correct me.
Technorati tags:
This car is as old as me! If I lavished as much time and attention on my bodywork as the owner has on this car I'd probably look as good :)
I was born in '51, and really, the '51 Chevy sedan wasn't much to look at. I like the truck though.
Yep, you got it right. That's a '57 Chevy alright!
CONTENTMENT: Keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry, live simply, expect little, give much, sing often, pray always, forget self, think of others and their feelings, fill your heart with love, scatter sunshine. These are the tried links in the golden chain of contentment.

President to Ring In Big Class of 2015by Howard Hewitt • August 18, 2011 Share:
Wabash College will welcome one of its biggest freshman classes in recent years Saturday. Freshman Saturday is a Wabash tradition culminating in the "ringing in" ceremony conducted by President Patrick White.
The Class of 2015 could exceed 290 students, according to admissions officials. Enrollment has been right at 250 the past two years and a big class this year would bring Wabash up to its usual student numbers. Those big numbers have required extra planning.
The ringing in ceremony will be available on the College website through steaming video. The video will also be streaming live in Baxter Hall, Room 101, for any over-flow crowd.
"As the economy and the College's financial position showed signs of improvement, the President assigned a higher priority to address the strategic plan goal of stabilizing enrollment between 900-925," Dean of Admissions Steve Klein said. "To make progress toward that goal, he asked admissions in January to adjust our operation to enroll up to 270 new students. To do so, we admitted 45 additional students, assuming 15 more students (give or take) would deposit and enroll. This also assumed that 29 percent of all admitted students (same as last year) would deposit and enroll. Right now that yield is 32.5 percent and is likely to come in at 32 percent."
In other words, Admissions admitted more students and more of them seem to be planning on showing up.
It's likely to be a day they will never forget. Students arrive early Saturday morning for registration and move into their new living quarters. A parents and guest reception runs most of the morning at the Malcolm X Institute.
The Lilly Library and Bookstore will be open 10 a.m.- 3 p.m. Following lunch in the Allen Center, the official welcome and ceremony begins at 1 p.m. in the Pioneer Chapel. Later that afternoon parents will leave campus and the men of the Class of 2015 begin their orientation schedule which runs through Wednesday.
The class promises to be a big one regardless of the exact number but it's also difficult to put a finger on exactly why this class had fewer decide to go elsewhere.
Dean Klein points to a number of factors that could have played a role. He listed: adjustments in merit scholarship structure; improved athletic facilities; an exceptional year for sports teams; his great recruiting staff; better communication regarding value of a Wabash education; the service of the financial aid staff; and all the assistance of students, faculty, and staff along with Wabash alumni from around the world.
Not all of those freshmen are showing up Saturday because some are already here. Many freshmen fall athletes arrived last Sunday or Monday to begin fall sports practices. And, 12 members of the new class spent the week in Montana and jump starting their Wabash careers in a special class pairing the liberal arts with fly fishing.
The first day of class for all students is Thursday.

Chicago 10 (US - DVD R1)
Just in time for the 2008 RNC Gabe takes a look back at the 1968 DNC...
I came to Chicago 10 almost entirely ignorant to the subject matter, but I was excited to see it because of one line in the description – 'From Brett Morgan, director of The Kid Stays in the Picture'. The Kid Stays in the Picture is easily on of the most entertaining and innovatively constructed documentary features I've ever seen. I had to see what else this guy could do with the often static format.
This time Morgan takes us back to the days when the Democrats were the ones sending Americans to unwinable wars in far off lands – 1968 – and sticks us in an animated courtroom for the famous case of the Chicago Seven (or Eight, depending on what you read), who were tried for inciting a riot during the Democratic National Convention (beating Paul Greengrass and Steven Spielberg to the story). Morgan (and co-director Nanette Burstein) told the tale of movie mogul Robert Evens using a sort of advanced, 3D slideshow, this time he mixes stock and news footage, and a both traditional and vector based, cell shades animation. Robert Evens told his own story, but these animated representations of real men are voiced by a cornucopia of A-List actors, including Nick Nolte, Mark Ruffalo, Jeffery Wright, Hank Azaria, Dylan Baker, Live Schreiber, and Roy Scheider in one of his last roles.
Chicago 10 is a documentary like none other. The pacing is wicked, the narrative jumps to and fro in time with wild abandoned, and there is no narrator to keep us centered in the drama. Morgan's intensely stylized film over steps its bounds at times, becoming exhaustively overdone, and losing the point of the exercise. The ninety five minute film blows by in no time, which is a usually compliment for a documentary, but at certain points the attention deficit style caused me personally to zone out a bit, which I'm pretty sure wasn't the desired effect.
However, in the end, Morgan's sense of drama and pathos manages to shimmer through his wacky modus operandi, and all the silliness begins to make sense. The tonal shift is a healthy reminder of the history we should be careful to never relive, and that responsibility can be found on both sides of the confrontation. By placing the riot itself at the end of the film rather then the beginning or middle the film puts the farce of the trail in the proper perspective.
Mixed media and forty year old stock footage are not the ideal materials for a spotless transfer. The news footage looks old and dirty, but the colours are quite bright and well represented. It appears that a lot of this stuff has been purposefully saturated to blend a little more naturally with the animation. The animation is smooth, and the colours are solid. There's very little noise in these sequences, though the sharp edges are doubled up with white edge enhancement. The black levels across the board (animation and stock footage) are deep and rich as can be expected from the DVD format.
The disc's 5.1 Dolby Digital kicks into gear right off the bat with the intensely stylized opening credits, which start with a surround sound representation of a radio broadcast of the riot itself, and punch into Rage Against the Machine's 'Wake Up', minus the vocals. Taking what is an inherently flat original soundtrack and turning it into something this ferocious is a pretty impressive feat. Sometimes the additional surround effects are a little jarringly artificial sounding, but they work to intensify the over-the-top, multi-media production. The licensed music selections are spot on (War Pigs, Kick Out The Jams, Sabotage), and never sounded better. The track seems to have been compressed a bit further then most of the stuff that's graced my player recently, so the volume had to be cranked a little further then usual.
The only extra, besides some trailers, is a 'remix contest winner', by Gina Telaroli. This is basically a home made trailer. I'm given no context, so I can only assume footage from the film was offered up on the website or something. Frankly, this winner is pretty sloppily cut.
Chicago 10 wasn't quite the film I wanted it to be, and director Brett Morgan seems to have found a limit for his flashy style of documentary filmmaking. The movie's an entertaining and breezy romp through a series of events that often goes overlooked these days. One only wonders if this kind of message hasn't come four years too late. I could've used some extras covering the historical events, the casting, or even the animation process, but the disc looks and sounds good enough.
Note: I couldn't get the film to play on my VLC player, so I had to get screen caps from the lo-res trailer on the disc. These are not an accurate representation of the film's video quality

It will be very painful for me to watch this as it was Roy Scheider's last released film.
I wanted to see this, but it had a very limited run here and didn't get a chance. Paul Greengrass will be directing a live action movie of the events. It's still in pre-production.
In regaurds to my title, I actually finished this review during the RNC, but it took a while for it to be released. I understand it is no longer relevent.

I was interested to note that Silvaco has recently listed SEMulator3D as a competitor for their VICTORY Process Cell software on their website. It's great to be mentioned as a contender in the TCAD process simulation space. But I'd like to take the opportunity to examine the following question – are SEMulator3D and VICTORY Process Cell really direct competitors?
On the surface, both SEMulator3D and VICTORY Process Cell can do some similar things. Both tools are fast, layout driven process modeling engines that are designed to build 3D models of MEMS and semiconductor devices. Both tools can model individual process steps or entire process sequences, and can model a variety of process and device types. And both tools can create meshes suitable for further physics simulation.

The colors in this quinoa salad will add a festive note to a holiday meal—and it can be prepared in advance so the cooks can devote last-minute preparations to the main course. Quinoa, native to the Andes Mountains, is related to the weed lambs quarters and has been part of the diet of the people who live on the mountain plateaus of Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Chile for five thousand years. Quinoa is a highly nutritious food with protein that's superior to other more common cereal grains. Best of all, quinoa has a nutty, earthy taste. A vinaigrette made with a medium extra-virgin olive oil and sherry vinegar complements the nutty quinoa and pistachios.–Fran Gage
LC Beige But Not Bland Note
Don't let the benign beige appearance of quinoa mislead you into thinking it's bland. Oh no. Quinoa possesses an irresistible nuttiness that's an able backdrop for just about anything. Use it anywhere you'd use rice, couscous, even, in the case of dressings, cubes of day-old bread. (You may, however, need to tweak the amount of liquid. Hey, we said it wasn't boring. Not that it was a no-brainer.)
Quinoa Salad with Pistachios and Cranberries
- Quick Glance
- Serves 4
- For the sherry vinaigrette
- 2 teaspoons minced shallots
- 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons (2 ounces) not overly robust extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons cold water
- For the quinoa salad
- 1/3 cup (1 1/2 ounce) shelled pistachios
- 1 cup (6 1/4 ounces) quinoa
- 1 1/2 cups (12 ounces) cold water
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
- 3 scallions, white and pale green parts thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup (1 1/4 ounces) dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
- Make the sherry vinaigrette
- 1. Place the shallots, vinegar, salt, and a few grindings of pepper into a small deep bowl, a coffee mug, or a 1-cup measure. Slowly pour 2 tablespoons of the extra-virgin olive oil into the bowl, beating constantly with a fork. Beat in the water, then the remaining 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil. Taste for seasoning and adjust accordingly.
- Make the quinoa salad
- 2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange the pistachios in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet or in a roasting pan and toast until you can just detect their aroma and they are lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let them cool to room temperature. Coarsely chop the pistachios.
- 3. Toast the quinoa in a skillet over medium-high heat, shaking the pan occasionally, until it just begins to brown, starts to crackle, and smells a bit toasted, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a pot, add the water and the salt, cover, and bring to a simmer. Cook until the quinoa is soft but still has a little texture left in its center, about 15 minutes. The water should be completely absorbed.
- 4. Transfer the quinoa to a bowl and let cool. Add the pistachios, celery, scallions, and cranberries and toss. Dress the salad with the sherry vinaigrette. (If not serving immediately, refrigerate the salad but allow a little time to bring it to room temperature before serving.)

Quiz: U.S. Presidents We'd Love to Work For
By Dennis McCafferty | Posted 02-24-2011 Print
Throughout U.S. history, we've had presidents who were a former surveyor (Washington), a teacher (John Adams), an inventor/architect (Jefferson), a postmaster (Lincoln), a rancher (Theodore Roosevelt), a haberdasher (Truman), a sports team owner (George W. Bush) and even a sheriff (Grover Cleveland). The unifying factor among (hopefully) all presidents is that their skills are directly translatable to the business world. Which is why a consulting firm called Revenue Beast decided to have some fun with a survey that asks U.S. workers which presidents they think would excel in today's business environment. One interesting finding: Thomas Jefferson ranked high (but not the highest) among those presidents considered tech-savvy. "It was encouraging that Jefferson was chosen," says Jeff Christian, CEO of Revenue Beast, which helps client companies discover and expand new revenue streams. "He was known as a 'technology buff' of his time, buying every new scientific instrument he could get his hands on." Take the quiz and see how your answers stack up against the 100 respondents who participated in the Revenue Beast survey.

Is it a kayak or is it a boat? Whatever it is, the Pro Angler means business.
I recently had an opportunity to test paddle a Hobie Pro Angler on a weekend fishing adventure and I have to say, I am impressed! My first reaction was, "man, this thing is huge!" but once I hit the water, it was smooth sailing or rather pedaling. It all started when a customer, turned friend of mine, invited me join him on his annual Choke Canyon Lake trip. No arm-twisting here — ready, set, let's go! As an ACK employee, I must admit, its pretty nice having access to almost any kayak we sell so I decided to try one that I've never used for an extended period of time, the Hobie Pro Angler. There is another reason for it. I was told that this lake was home to alligators and I have to admit, I was a little concerned. I do understand that alligators can be pretty laid back but still held strong to using something BIG for peace of mind.
I have a small truck with a short bed so was a little worried that it may not fit but when paired with a Darby Extend-A-Truck Bed Extender, it fit like a glove. Three hours later, I drove up to our cabin and without hesitation pulled the boat off the bed of my truck and into the water. Admittedly, it was a bit of a haul having to drag the boat into the water, it would have been nice if I had remembered to load a Hobie Heavy Duty Plug-In Kayak Cart. Not a huge deal though since it was downhill and mostly sand and grass.
Before I launched, I did spend sometime thinking about how I was going to outfit the Pro Angler. Since this boat already has multiple areas to secure my rods, there was no need for me to purchase any rod holders. I especially liked carrying my backup and night fishing rods in a horizontal position and out of the way on both sides of the cockpit. I did bring a crate to load a few items that I usually carry such as my anchor kit and other fishing gear. As you can see in the picture at the top of this article, there was plenty of room for more. I used the front hatch for my camera equipment but if I had done any fishing for keepers it would have been a perfect place to store my catch on ice.
It's not the first time I've used this boat but I was again impressed with the speed and control I had. There was a stand of sunken trees that I wanted to fish about 300 yards from the shoreline and it only took a few minutes to get across using the Mirage Drive with Turbo Fins attached. I was a bit nervous at first with all the crisscrossing powerboat traffic but was able to get through quickly without hitch. Speaking of powerboats, I never had any problems dealing with heavy chop even while standing. This boat was bone dry all the way through — talk about stable.
Once on water and in place, it was a bit windy so I was prepared to release my anchor but with within a few minutes I realized that by simply adjusting the position of my retractable rudder combined with the fact that this boats weighs just under 138 lbs. I wasn't being pushed all over the place. Instead, I had a controlled and steady drift.
The cockpit area is probably my favorite feature of this boat. I can't sit still for more than 15 minutes so plenty of wiggle room and being able to stand up makes this a winner for me. The Pro Angler's extraordinary stability had me standing more than sitting even while drifting and experiencing powerboat chop. I can't say enough good things about the seat — comfortable, wide, rigid and dry. I also like the utility trays reserving one for used worms, another for trash and another for my water bottle. I have to be honest, I didn't know what the flat area just between my legs was for and come to find out, it's a center hatch cover with a cutting board — nifty.
Choke Canyon Lake is southeast of San Antonio, Texas. For years I have seen a sign off the highway identifying it's location but never thought much of it. We stayed in a couple of cabins that are part of the state park system. I didn't have time to explore the entire 26,000 acre lake but enjoyed a sense of isolation from any urban environments. The lake is mostly tree lined with oaks and mesquite amongst open areas of brush land. I didn't see any alligators but did encounter a variety of birds I had never seen before, turkeys, deer, raccoons and wild hogs. One bird in particular that kept catching my eye was the Crested Caracara (AKA Mexican Eagle). A large beautiful bird that seemed to own the lake.
I also learned something this weekend. Choke Canyon Lake is FULL of fish or at least it seemed so. Over the course of the weekend, our group must have caught at least 40 fish, more specifically large mouth bass. The fishing was on! Okay, maybe not the first day but day 2 rendered a day full of "fish on" moments. With so much space in the cockpit landing and releasing fish safely was a breeze. I used a combination of Texas rigged worms by Get Five Lures, Rattlesnake and Senko. Darker shades of green, black and black with red sparkles were the ticket. Some of the guys were also doing well fishing top water with soft plastic frogs. Most of the fish I caught were just at the edge of grass and hydrilla beds. The fish seemed to be hanging out at the edge ready to strike at anything that came their way. Areas with sunken trees were also hot spots and the nice thing about using a kayak or small boat for fishing is that I was able to get right on top and into those trees. Overall, it was a successful weekend of fishing.
I did run into one situation where I dropped my Shimano Calcutta Rod and Reel Combo into the water. I've owned this setup for years and wasn't about to let it go, so with nightfall fast approaching, I quickly began to try and recover it by dragging my anchor across the bottom of the lake. After 30 minutes of failed attempts, it was pitch black and realized I hadn't loaded my Scotty Sea Light when I left home. My persistence led me to using my Kelty LumaCamp LED Lantern, which emitted more light than I could ask for. I quickly got back to work rigging up a treble hook with heavy weights and within a few minutes I caught the best thing ever, my rod and reel combo. I've always been a big believer in rod leashes and I wonder why a boat that is so feature rich does not come with them. On a different note, I wasn't too crazy about the placement of the paddle holder although I couldn't think of a better place to put it.
Back at camp, we enjoyed a festive night of grilled fajitas, sautéed veggies, cold drinks and fish tales celebrating an eventful day of fishing. The Hobie Pro Angler met my expectations and I was thankful for the opportunity to go on this fishing trip and look forward to the next one.
Here's a short clip showing some of my catches.

When can I try one out?
Good write up. If you ever make it down to South FL look me up. I'll take you to some spots where there are no gators. . . . just American Crocodiles 🙂 But the fishing is killer!
Jared, thanks…be careful though, I might just take you up on that!
Paul, demo days in fall (Houston, San Marcos and Austin)
We also rent the pro angler out of our Austin store. Just call to make a reservation 512-719-4386. Thanks

The latest earnings season had its fair share of short revenues, dimmed outlooks, and layoff announcements. But for a few companies and industry segments, there is a silver lining: energy costs are staying in line, thanks to the natural gas glut.
"One of the reasons we did better than most people thought in the quarter was despite a slowing economy, I have a feedstock advantage here in the United States for the first time if a long time," said Andrew Liveris, CEO of Dow Chemical, in discussing his company's results on CNBC's "Squawk Box" Wednesday.
The natural gas advantage helps on two levels. Chemical companies, plastic makers, and fertilizer outfits use natural gas to make key ingredients for their products. Other companies, like metal workers and utilities, can use natural gas to produce energy for their operations or power customers.
In both cases, the lower natural gas prices brought about by greater use of fracking technology has been a benefit. That same technology has also benefited oil users, since fracking technology has also upped oil production.
(Read More: What Is Fracking?)
"Our natural gas consumption has gone up 150 percent for this year versus last year so that's the kind of renaissance that's occurring in the energy industry that we haven't seen before," American Electric Power CEO Nick Akins said on CNBC's "Mad Money".
Indeed the drop in natural prices—roughly $12 per million BTUs in 2008 versus roughly $4 now—has some executives believing the situation will benefit not just particular companies and industries, but the economy as a whole.
"It's going to be transformative for our economy, absolutely," said Loew's CEO James Tisch during a CNBC appearance earlier in the month. "…We produce 65 billion cubic feet of natural gas a day… at the same price, we could produce 85 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day. For every additional billion cubic feet we produce, my calculation is that creates an additional 7,000 to 10,000 jobs."
Of course low gas prices aren't helping everyone. Natural gas suppliers like Noble Energy, ConocoPhillips, and Occidental all reported hits to their balance sheets because of low prices. And those prices also have some manufacturers moving from coal to natural gas for their energy supply. Railroads, which rely on coal for a major part of their business, are also feeling negative effects.
Discussing his company's earnings on CNBC Mike Ward, CEO of CSX, said his company expected to see coal traffic drop as older electricity plants closed down, but "I think that's been accelerated by the low natural gas prices we're seeing."
And some think the low prices won't last. In fact, natural gas has experienced a slight uptick. And others think more competitive advantage can be found elsewhere.
"Somebody told me natural gas is a game changer," said noted economist Marc Faber, also appearing on "Squawk Box." "That's why the U.S. market has outperformed any other market... The view is this: You invest in America. America is less bad than Europe and Asia…. Now, one of the reasons is they say the U.S. will become energy self-sufficient in five or seven years and natural gas will lead to a competitive advantage for the U.S. [But] yesterday I arrived at Kennedy (Airport)… I waited two and a half hours in front of immigration to get through. You think that (cheap) gas will change any of that? This is ridiculous. The problem is we have not only in the U.S. but also in Europe bureaucracies that are far too big. My medicine is reduce government a minimum of 50 percent."
