Eastpak Padded Pakr Backpack - Black
Product Details
- External Dimensions 39 x 30 x 18 cm
- Weight 0.40 kg
- Warranty 30 Year Warranty
This Bag to Scale
Eastpak Padded Pakr Backpack - Black
The Eastpak Padded Pak'r backpack was first constructed way back in 1976 when Eastpak's founder's son came up with an idea to produce simple backpacks for university students. Before this, Eastpak was known as 'Eastern Canvas Products' and was manufacturing high quality duffles and backpacks for the U.S. Army.
The Padded Pakr is a simple classic backpack with one large compartment and a front zippered pocket. It has thick padded shoulder straps and a padded back panel to maximise comfort. That's it - simple.
When developing the company from an army supplier to brand it is today, Eastpak stayed true to their heritage by constructing it from 1 square piece of military strength fabric. Doing this reduces the number of seams required in the bag and the remaining seams were double stitched for extra strength. They also added reinforced zips. This bag won't let you down, and Eastpak guarantee it for 30 years.
We like the Padded Pak'r Daypack because of it's simplicity, quality and heritage. It's a pack that you can take anywhere and it'll never get in the way. Pack your jumper, water bottle, iPad and interchangeable lens camera, then hit the city. You'll have everything you need and nothing you don't. Your pack will remain subtle and look great.
Features & Benefits
- Large main compartment
- Zippered front pocket to stash small stuff
- Comfortable padded back
- Thick padded shoulder straps
- Top carry handle makes it easy to pick up

Extremely fast delivery :)
samuel p. from ELEEBANA, NSW Australia -
The delivery time was excellent but unfortunately the product was rubbish. I would have returned it but I had already put the screen protector on my mobile. The case had 3 scratches on the back and it did not fit the phone snugly. There were noticeable gaps on the side that would catch lots of dust, fluff etc. and it didn\'t feel as if the case would stay on if the phone was dropped. I am very disappointed in the product.

DENVER - Colorado Yellow Ribbon Colorado Yellow Ribbon Colorado Yellow Ribbon Event is an opportunity for us to Welcome Home Our Troops and Support Those Still Serving! We hope to see you at the parade. Saturday, August 11 website: www.coloradoyellowribbon.org David Fennell ('96) is a major in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves with combat tours in Iraq as a Tactical Air Operations Detachment Commander and Afghanistan as a Civil Affairs Team Leader.

This event will be a fun, positive, and meaningful way to come together and recognize the service and sacrifices from our very own Colorado residents (many of them also being CSU students and alumni).

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, My God. Brian, I love you. This is roll your eyes back in your head delicious.
Tasted awesome - did not look so great. I halfed the recipe, and prepared them the night before. I used 8oz ramekins, but they seemed not to be filled high enough, as it was difficult to completely bury the ganache. The first one I inverted lost the top and melted center onto the plate, but left the rest of the cake in the ramekin. So, after a few more minutes in the oven with the remaining 3, I ran a knife around the cakes and they came out easily. I definitely had that butter-sugar coating on the cakes, and they appeared smaller (shorter and wider than I had pictured. They still tasted awesome, even though the few extra minutes in the oven made the ganache soak into the cake, I think - the center was kind of gooey but definitely not dripping when cut into. I'll try these again, all in one night, and I may try the hint of using fine sugar in the ramekins(which you can get by running sugar through your food processor or even cocoa powder.

somewhere fanta...
on March 20, 2011
I made these little cakes in a texas cup cake pan. It worked well. So, after I put them in the oven i saw the review that said the recipe had a typo with the flour amount. I made them with the 2Tbsp and they were still fantastic!!!! Yummy with some vanilla ice cream. We had these as a celebration dessert after my husband lost 20lbs and lowered his cholesterol 60pts! this cake probably edged both up just a tad :-
These came out great! I followed the directions completely...but somethings that previous people didn't do that you must is.....
1 It does call for 1/2 a cup of flour (the written recipe has a typo of 2 tbsp
2 MUST use fine sugar... makes a difference.
3 Make sure the oven is fully pre-heated before putting them in or they will flop -

This was SOOOO good! My boyfriend made this for another couple and I last weekend and I was so impressed! He never makes dessert haha. I was a bit nervous for him, but it was so good I decided I am going to make it again this weekend :.
***I have to add that....
He did not use ramekins. I think this was better actually, filling, but good. I have no idea what they were, but they were much bigger. He also only made four cakes and used all of the batter. The recipe says it should only make four servings anyway. He went out and purchased ramekins this week so we could make more things with them. I didn't know they only made tiny ones, so I had him find bigger ramekin-like baking dishes. I think these will work much better for this dessert.
Also the bake time was about double as long as the recipe says, if not longer.
Other than that, a great dessert! -
I tried to scale this recipe up - but it didn't work for 12 cakes. plus in 4 ounce ramekins it didn't work either. The texture was completely off. The ganache wasn't scoopable and the cakes hardened in the refrigerator so I couldn't put the ganache in. Couldn't scoop it anyway. Very disappointing. I made this for a party I catered. I have done a similar recipe several times and did one from emerrill which worked out much better. plus I put a whole pound of butter in and they still stuck to the ramekin. I buttered the bottom and sides.

It's disheartening to hear that that things have to be "tweaked" to get either the same results or similar results as those that appeared on the show. I'm glad o hear though that at least some of the hosts do tell the viewers what kind of salt they use as it does make a difference in the dish because of the way it disperses its flavor throughout. This is why I like reading the reviews first, so thanks everyone, you all Rock!

Don't get me wrong, I AM a big fan of FoodTV network, but I have found so many recipes that don't match the episode that I now record the episodes and do NOT delete until I compare the the recipe listed on the website.
Maybe FoodTV will solicit "home cooks/bakers" to try their recipes before posting the recipes online?
Brian, I love your recipes!!! I am having a dinner with my women's golf team and have gone with an Italian theme using at least 3 of your recipes!!!!

(I really hope that this post is informative as I spent A LOT of time working hard on it. Please do reblog and spread the word here on this, I'm trying to help people out since Eridan is so poorly characterised within the fandom)
It should be best for me to make the first 'proper' post of this Tumblr about getting Eridan's typing quirk right, seeing as this is definitely an important factor in roleplaying Eridan. It's pretty simple to get the hang of but I see people getting it wrong all of the time so I'm making a simple guide. Look below the 'read more' for the rest because this gets very long, screenshots and all.

BUSHLAND, Texas — Clovis High had a battle on its hands Saturday against Class 2A Bushland, but the Wildcats made enough plays down the stretch to get by.
Clovis took the lead during an 18-10 run in the third quarter and fought off the pesky Falcons down the stretch for a 59-56 victory, improving to 7-4 for the season.
Senior post Logan Turnbow scored seven of his team-high 17 points in the fourth quarter, while senior guard Landyn Snipes added a season-best 13 points for the Cats. Junior guard Deven Crockett, not expected to play due to a turf toe injury, filled in with guard Alex Flores in foul trouble at halftime and scored 10 second-half points.
"We tried to hold Deven out, but Alex got four fouls in the first half," CHS coach J.D. Isler said. "I felt like if we were going to have a chance to win, we were going to have to play Deven some."
Michael Matthews, a 6-foot-2 senior guard, poured in 26 points for the Falcons (1-3), who lost in the state Class 2A Division II football championship on Dec. 19. The Cats, though, held Matthews scoreless during the third quarter when they were gaining control.
"Landyn Snipes did a great job on him," Isler said. "We held him scoreless in the third quarter, and that was a big deal."
The teams went back-and-fourth in the first half, but with Matthews scoring 16 points the Falcons emerged with a 31-28 halftime lead.
Clovis entered the final period with 46-41 advantage and built the margin to eight at one point. Trailing 58-52 with under two minutes left, consecutive baskets allowed the Falcons to pull within two.
Turnbow then hit 1-of-2 frree throws with 25 seconds to go. Matthews had two 3-point tries in the remaining time, but both were off the mark.
"They were hard to defend, and they were big," Isler said. "Other than Logan (6-foot-8), they were bigger than us."
Mason Harris also reached double figures for the Falcons, finishing with 13 points.

1. | reality show | ||
A TV show that actually has very little to do with reality, so named just because corporate dumbfucks needed a buzzword to attract attention and they couldn't think of a term that actually fit. Reality shows suck.
2. | reality show | ||
highly-overrated show which lately grows into many different variaties, yet such shows lack the "REALITY" itself. One show that I can relate closer to reality is the news; if it even does tell the 'reality'.

A small backyard should have both large shade trees and flowering ornamental trees for optimal effect.
Flowering trees should be chosen carefully using the same process I have recommended in choosing a tree.
It's important that flowering trees not be randomly planted throughout the yard. They should be grouped according to size and canopy form. The color and abundance of the flowers should also be considered in tree landscaping.
Flowering trees can be used in small and large backyards. Grouping of similar trees in a large yard is just as important as in a small yard.
Most people choose a flowering ornamental tree based on the beauty of the flower. The color of the flower, the seasonality of the bloom, and the duration of the bloom are generally the most important considerations.
This could be a huge mistake. The flower may last only a short time.
You must consider other qualities of the flowering ornamental tree. Some have uniquely colored foliage or attractive bark. Others have beautiful fall foliage. Still others have fruit that that adds beauty plus attracts birds and wildlife.
On the other hand, fruit can cause some messy problems. You may have no interest in attracting birds and wildlife.
Consider other negative qualities before choosing a tree.
Some trees have major problems with disease and insects. Any tree that is known to have problems with mildew, fireblight, or scab should be avoided.
You may choose a beautiful flowering ornamental tree with other desirable qualities. But if the tree doesn't get the proper light, is not grown in the desired soil conditions, and is not provided the required water and nutrients, you may be greatly disappointed in the quality of your tree because it doesn't live up to expectations.
There are many flowering ornamental trees that I really like.
Some of my favorite include the Cleveland Pear, the Eastern Redbud, the Flowering Dogwood, the Kousa Dogwood, the Sourwood, the Prunus Snow Fountain (white cherry bloom), the Punus Autumnus (pink cherry bloom), the Carolina Silverbell, the American Snowball, and the Japanese Stewartia.
Obviously, I like a lot of them as I work on tree landscaping my backyard. If you have any questions on how to choose flowering ornamental trees, please contact me.

Jessie J 'considering quitting The Voice UK'
Published May 20 2012, 12:20 BST | By Colin Daniels
Jessie J is said to be thinking about quitting The Voice UK.The 'Price Tag' singer apparently wants to focus solely on her music after tiring of claims that she acts like a diva on set.
> The Voice UK: Jessie J angers producers with 'lame' remark?
> The Voice UK revamp ordered after viewing figures fall?
"Maybe it's time for album number two and a lot less bull. I can't seem to win. I'm not sure I want to come back to this," the Sunday Mirror claims Jessie J told a friend.
BBC One controller Danny Cohen has reportedly offered to double her £200,000 salary next season amid growing concerns over the show's ratings.
"The show is in turmoil and needs to keep somebody like Jessie who attracts kids who will vote. Danny's told Jessie he wants her back and he can offer her more. He is aware she is not happy with the show and the backlash against her," a source said.
"She just thinks maybe it's best that she concentrates on her second album and doesn't get too wrapped up in The Voice, especially if it's damaging her reputation.
"Jessie doesn't need to make a decision yet but she's considering her options. She doesn't want people to forget she's a singer."
Fellow coach Sir Tom Jones admitted that it would be "a lot easier" for him to return for a second series if Jessie J does, as the pair get on well.
Host Holly Willoughby dismissed claims that The Voice UK is in crisis and said people shouldn't think Jessie J is a "nightmare" just because she is a "strong woman".
"I'd love to come back. I would be gutted if [Jessie J] left - she's my favourite judge," Willoughby told the Daily Star Sunday. "I hold her responsible for being the gel that holds the panel together so well. She's just dedicated and passionate."

I don't want you f***ing app

- Snippets
I get it. We don't like the "door slams", urging us to download an app before we can actually use the website. Unfortunately, they seem to be effective or they wouldn't be doing it. Sometimes, "business" decisions come first, no matter how much they affect immediate usability.
It would be great if they just used Apple's "Smart App Banner" (or a similar display on other mobile devices), which displays details of a specified app on the App Store at the top of the page and doesn't block access to the website.

Sunday brought another foggy day, at least on our side of the hill. As we crested the hilltop on our way to church, the skies cleared and it was beautiful in the valley. We returned a couple hours later to the gray skies once again. A perfect afternoon for popping one of my old favorite movies - Benny & Joon - into the DVD player and for starting a new little embroidery project. This one is a sweet little quilt called Betsy's Closet - In Stitches by Acorn Quilt & Gift Company.
This little charmer finishes at 24 x 28 1/2 inches if I strictly follow the pattern, but I'm thinking that if September brings us a new granddaughter I may enlarge it a bit to make it big enough for use as a baby quilt.
The mail was very late arriving Saturday, and when we stopped at the mailbox on our way to church, we found a package containing these goodies!
I was the lucky winner of Pam's giveaway last week on her blog Learning to Be Me. I've already spotted at least two patterns in the book that will be on my list and those luscious fabrics will no doubt find their way into a couple of small projects on the drawing board right now. Thanks so much Pam!
And that brings me to the real topic of this post. With Valentine's Day rapidly approaching, all across blogland little quilted hearts are showing up on mug rugs, table toppers, and other quilty goodness, many created as gifts to show the special folks in our life how much we appreciate their love and friendship. Well, Pam at Learning to Be Me has put her heart into creating a magnificent quilt of love and life over the past several years. Her quilt was begun, intended as a gift for her Dad, who had asked her to make him a king-size quilt. Pam decided to make his heart's desire, using a lot of his favorite color-orange. She even hand quilted this gorgeous quilt! Long story short, during the interim, her Dad has suffered some serious medical issues and is now residing in a nursing home where he will be unable to use the quilt. After much thought Pam decided the best way her quilt could honor her father would be if she used it to raise funds for a mission that has been on her heart for some time. And so, Pam's Living Water Quilt is being raffled in an effort to raise funds for Blood:Water Mission, a group dedicated to providing clean potable water to rural African villages. The raffle will run through March 31, with a goal of raising $7,000 which is the approximate cost to drill one new well for an African village, where residents often must walk for long distances daily to fetch water from streams that are frequently contaminated sources of drinking water, leading to illness and high child mortality rates.
You can read more of Pam's story, see her gorgeous Living Water Quilt (and her second project currently underway called Project 40) by clicking here and here; and more information on Blood:Water Mission is available here.
I am touched by Pam's generosity of spirit and hope that other bloggers who read her story will be similarly inspired to spread the word to help her reach her goal of turning her wonderful quilt into a gift of pure, clean, living water to people who have never known this luxury.
Later this morning I'm meeting up with Barbara of the very popular Cat Patches blog to have lunch and then I'll have the opportunity to introduce her to our local quilt guild at our monthly meeting. Barbara and I are meeting up right behind the LQS, so guess where else we might be headed! Looking forward to meeting Barbara in person - I think we first "met" while posting our monthly challenges for the Free Motion Quilt Challenge last year. If you haven't yet met Barbara, head on over to Cat Patches and prepare to be regaled with the Adventures of Smitty, her delightful cat! Oh, and she's also a quilter, a baker, and a master story teller!
Happy Monday!

As part of your blogger outreach, you might find yourself in a position to source content from writers all over the world. This presents an opportunity to showcase points of view, tactics, tips, and the like that are different from your own. It's a unique learning opportunity not just for you, but for your readers, as well.
And for as wonderful as this opportunity is, it does, of course, present its own set of problems.
Make no mistake. This is not a post about why you should or shouldn't outsource your content writing. This is merely to say that, as you take a dip in the writer pool, as it were, you will undoubtedly come across fantastic bloggers who don't live in the same country as you. The fact that you don't share the same native language shouldn't be a permanent barrier.
In fact, I like to think of it more as a language hurdle. It's something that can be overcome.
When I was in college, I worked as a tutor for my university's writing center. Some of my favorite "tutees" were students for whom English was not their first language. In some cases, English was not even their second language.
For some people, this is a red flag warning of low quality. A barrier. For me, I thought it impressive that they were working so hard to master English, as well. And because of their commitment and their willingness to continually practice, edit, and repeat, they were some of the hardest working students that I encountered.
Do you run the risk of receiving low quality work if your blogger outreach extends to other countries? To answer that, let me ask you this question:
Do you run the risk of receiving low quality work from someone whose first language is English?
I've seen some pret-ty terrible English-as-a-first-language writers in my day.
Yes, it's true that some of the non-native speakers that you encounter won't necessarily be at the point you'd like them to be just yet. But can we give them some credit for trying? I can kind of speak French, but that doesn't make me brave enough to try to publish anything I'd write in France.
If you're using freelance writers and reaching out for the assistance of bloggers, it's a given that you're going to have to do one of two things: coach or edit.
Coaching a writer will take a significant amount of resources, not the least of them being time. It's a good option if you're looking for a longterm investment. This job could be one for leadership, or it could fall to your editor or assistant editors. There are a number of ways to go about it.
Though it will require time and patience, you'll help that writer not only to improve upon his or her English, but also you have the benefit of being able to coach them to write the way you want them to be writing for you. I don't really want to compare it to a blank canvas, but it's kind of along those lines.
If you're working in the short term, you're probably looking to edit. Again, just because you might be working in the short term doesn't mean that editing is a short term task. Keep in mind that many writers will craft a piece in their native language and then translate it to English. Direct translations don't always come through, and so while the idea behind the piece may be brilliant, the English might seem broken or inconsistent. It could very well end up meaning that you'll still have to work alongside the writer to make sure his or her intention remains in tact as you edit the piece.
It also means that you need to ask yourself how much you're willing to edit, as well as at what point in the editing process does a piece stop belonging to the writer and start belonging to you. If editing turns into completely re-writing, that writer isn't ready yet. Offer coaching, if possible.
Both options are going to require you to put in some effort, but then, no one ever said content development would or should be effortless. There is something to be said here for commitment and faith in your writers.
So if, in your outreach, you come across a writer who seems promising, don't shy away simply because of a perceived language barrier (and this includes those native speakers whose English is perhaps not as eloquent, shall we say, as we might like).
Instead, when possible, think of it as a language hurdle: something to be overcome.

Ticks are an indisputably dreaded enemy – none of us wants to find a tick on our dogs, other pets or ourselves. Besides the obvious "ick" factor, ticks are bad news because they may transmit diseases and even cause anemia or paralysis. As a dog owner, there are some basics you should know about the risks, prevention and removal of ticks. With proper knowledge, you can help protect your dog from the threat of ticks.
About Ticks
Ticks are parasitic arthropods that feed on the blood of their hosts. They are attracted to warmth and motion, often seeking out mammals – including dogs. Ticks tend to hide out in tall grass or plants in wooded areas waiting for prospective hosts. Once a host is found, the tick climbs on and attaches its mouthparts into the skin, beginning the blood meal. Once locked in place, the tick will not detach until its meal is complete. It may continue to feed for several hours to days, depending on the type of tick. On dogs, ticks often attach themselves in crevices and/or areas with little to no hair – typically in and around the ears, the areas where the insides of the legs meet the body, between the toes, and within skin folds. Most species of ticks go through four life stages - eggs, larvae, nymphs, and adults. All stages beyond eggs will attach to a host for a blood meal (and must do so on order to mature). Depending on species, the life span of a tick can be several months to years, and female adults can lay hundreds to thousands of eggs at a time. The following types of ticks are among the most common seen in North America:- Deer tick
- Brown dog tick
- Lone star tick
- American dog tick
The Dangers of Ticks
Though they are known vectors of disease, not all ticks transmit disease – in fact, many ticks do not even carry diseases. However, the threat of disease is always present where ticks are concerned, and these risks should always be taken seriously. Most tick-borne diseases will take several hours to transmit to a host, so the sooner a tick is located and removed, the lower the risk of disease. The symptoms of most tick-borne diseases include fever and lethargy, though some can also cause weakness, lameness, joint swelling and/or anemia. Signs may take days, weeks or months to appear. Some ticks can cause a temporary condition called "tick paralysis," which is manifested by a gradual onset of difficulty walking that may develop into paralysis. These signs typically begin to resolve after tick is removed. If you notice these or any other signs of illness in your dog, contact your veterinarian as soon as possible so that proper testing and necessary treatments can begin. The following are some of the most common tick-borne diseases:- Lyme disease
- Ehrlichiosis
- Rocky Mountain spotted fever
- Anaplasmosis
- Babesiosis

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
This Act may be cited as the 'Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia Diagnosis and Treatment Act of 2011'.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
The Congress finds as follows:CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
(1) Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia ('HHT') is a largely undiagnosed or misdiagnosed vascular genetic bleeding disorder that causes abnormalities of the blood vessels. A person with HHT has the tendency to form blood vessels that lack the capillaries between an artery and vein. HHT can cause spontaneous hemorrhage or stroke when brain or lung arteriovenous malformations, which are tangled blood vessels, rupture unexpectedly, in all age groups. In addition to hemorrhagic stroke, embolic stroke and brain abscess occur in approximately 30% of persons with HHT caused by artery-vein malformations in the lung (due to lack of capillaries between the arterial and venous systems which normally filter out clots and bacteria), causing disability and sudden premature death.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
(2) One in 5,000 American children and adults suffer from HHT.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
(3) Studies have found an increase in morbidity and mortality rates for individuals who suffer from HHT.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
(4) Due to the widespread lack of knowledge, accurate diagnosis, and appropriate intervention, 90 percent of HHT-affected families are at risk for preventable life-threatening and disabling medical incidents such as stroke.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
(5) Early detection, screening, and treatment can prevent premature deaths, spontaneous hemorrhage, hemorrhagic stroke, embolic stroke, brain abscess, and other long-term health care complications resulting from HHT.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
(6) HHT is an important health condition with serious health consequences which are amenable to early identification and diagnosis with suitable tests, and acceptable and available treatments in established treatment centers.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
(7) Timely identification and management of HHT cases is an important public health objective because it will save lives, prevent disability, and reduce direct and indirect health care costs expenditures.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
(8) Without a new program for early detection, screening, and treatment, 14,000 children and adults who suffer from HHT in the population today will suffer premature death and disability.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
The purpose of this Act is to create a federally led and financed initiative for early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia that will result in the reduction of the suffering of families, prevent premature death and disability, and lower health care costs through proven treatment interventions.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink

CLARENDON HILLS — Catholic elementary schools will celebrate the beliefs and standards they share.
Both St. Isaac Jogues in Hinsdale and Notre Dame School in Clarendon Hills have a variety of activities planned for the Jan. 27-Feb. 2 National Catholic School Week, which has Catholic Schools Raise the Standards as its theme for 2013.
The theme supports the recent launch of the National Standards and Benchmarks for Effective Catholic Elementary and Secondary Schools, which ensure the effective operation and responsible governance of Catholic schools across the country, reports the National Catholic Education Association. These standards and benchmarks help to promote high academic standards and the Catholic identity.
St. Isaac Jogues School in Hinsdale has about 480 students in kindergarten through eighth grade.
"We are pretty large by Catholic school standards," said Principal Richard Cronquist.
Still enrollment is down from about 720 students six to eight years ago. Then, "parents knew from when their child was born, that they were going to Catholic schools for their entire education," Cronquist said.
But more recently, perhaps due to financial considerations, some children are starting St. Isaac in second and third grade, when they receive the sacraments, Cronquist said.
Parents also may want their children in a Catholic elementary school to help them get accepted at a Catholic high school, Cronquist said. St. Isaac students go on to Nazareth Academy in LaGrange Park, Benet Academy in Lisle, Fenwick High School in Oak Park, Montini Catholic High School in Lombard, and St. Ignatius College Prep in Chicago.
But, fundamentally, Catholic elementary schools offer "moral theology," not only in daily religion classes, but in all subjects, Cronquist said.
"Catholic education is the greatest gift that God enables the Catholic Church to provide," Notre Dame Principal Mary Ann Feeney said. "Our families commit themselves to the mission of Catholic education. Our parents provide a great act of love by sending their children to Notre Dame, and we take time out each year to celebrate our faith, family, friendships, morals and service."

I have three right now which I keep coming back to:
Benedikt Magnusson for making the ridiculous look easy, for his psyche up and for being a modern day viking warrior The other two are a couple of guys who lift in my fed': Dean Mikosz (check him on YouTube: crazy strong 75kg's masters champion). I trained with Dean over Christmas and, schedules permitting, will be training with him again soon. Crazy strong, awesome stories, very helpful and a really good bloke. Paul McCafferty - World BDFPA Champion in the 82.5kg's class, destroyed me at regionals this year and I've been following his lifting since then. Very inspirational because he competes on my level, is English, is a little older than me and gives me a real target to go for. His British record squat is around 260kg's. That's where I want to be in 2 years time. I'll post some of their vid's in here later when I'm not at work. LtL

I am inspired by Tom Platz. Tom always worked hard despite less than perfect genetics, and maximized what he had.
I want to look like a mini Mike Mentzer. Mike, in my opinion, had a near perfect physique.

This may sound self serving, But honestly 5 people and persons inspire me.
My grandfather who fought in ww2 and kick a shitload of ass in the south Pacific and myself..I come from good stock and thats what inspires I surprise my self being 37 and being able to work the way I work..Also all the soldiers I worked along side with in the sand box and other vets inspire me to do what I do. Then come the fighters that I train or have trained me.. And my mom, Who is 63 years old, Fighting lupis and is a head nurse at City of hope cancer hospital..She gets up every morning to head out to take care of the dying, while she is sick herself..If she can do that every morning at 3 to 3:00pm, then I can train my ass off. And to honest, I like the way I look, Naked I look ****en bad ass...And thats the god honest truth.

The persons whom inspire me are those who are physically handicapped in some fashion, but seem to have something moving inside them to achieve extraordinary heights that far exeeds those with much more. Much to examine and open the mind with. When I read about a person whom has no legs, but is performing a 1/2 marathon and has trained for months previously (and writing about the trials and tribulations in the training), makes my personal problems seem pathetic and baby-ish--at best. I want to peak into their world and see what they have inside them, and just maybe I can learn something, and take something away from it to improve myself.
Peace brothers.

You know, I had the pleasure to see some SERIOUSLY strong mofos compete last weekend here in Dallas, including Benedikt Magnusson (who DESTROYED the deadlift WR) and Brian Siders, who posted a 605 bench and a 775 deadlift (both RAW) to win the biggest total of the day. I was just thinking to myself that I'm so puny (lift-wise) compared to those guys.. and then I also realized that my deadlift has gone from nil to almost 500lbs in less than a year. Sooo, who knows, I may compete next year at this one just so I can say I got beat by Benni.
And if I had to say whose physique would I most like to emulate? That's easy.. Bill Kazmaier Last edited by Aurik; 04-06-2011 at 12:17 PM. |

I lift because I like it and it makes me feel good, but more importantly, I got serious about lifting in some ways because I want my 5 year old son to always think of me as someone that is strong, and that maybe he might want to be strong too, and I could help him achieve that.
He inspires me, and he may never lift a weight ever. On the other hand, my two year old younger daughter is butt strong right now. I bet she is the first President of any sex with a 300 pound clean! I wouldn't put it past her! She is tough. There you go. |

Some nice replies guys...
As we got on to the subject of non-loifting inspiration, id like to add my inspiration (outside of the lifting world), anyone that overcome serious adversity to not only lead a normal life, but to do things that 'normal' folk dont even do inspires me. Plus my wife and kids, I dont just want them to look at me and not be embarrassed i want them to look at me and be proud, and if my healthy living and training inspires them (or any one else) to try to lead a better life then thats fine by me Carl.

Nice post Carl. I think being a good example for our children drives a lot of us. I want my daughter to be able to boast about how strong her Dad is and how he is a champion powerlifter. I've been a champion Ultimate Frisbee player but I don't think that will carry the same weight on the playground
