Kolkata will go into their next away game against Pune knowing that they are all but out of the this year's edition. They have just 4 wins from 12 games and only have a mathematical chance of making it to the qualifiers, given that other results pan out their way. The pitch in Pune will be on the slower side and might help their spinners. Pune on the other hand have nothing to lose. They are at the bottom of the table and this is just one of the final opportunities to prove that they probably aren't as bad as the current standings show them to be. In a nut-shell, this game is what is termed as a dead rubber in the current scheme of things.
One of the tweets doing the rounds sums Pune's performance neatly: "If this tournament featured games with 15 overs a side, Pune would have been at the top of the table". They have done quite a lot of things correctly and have even beaten the current table toppers Chennai in their den. Their only other win came against another top ranked team, Rajasthan, in Pune. Apart from that, they were in winning positions against Punjab, Hyderabad and even Bangalore. The most prominent hole that a post-mortem report might point out is the ability to finish off games at crucial junctures. The confusions regarding the leadership were sorted out with Aaron Finch leading the side ably, but individual performances have not been up to the mark. Yuvraj Singh has been the single biggest flop show which has sort of reflected on Pune's standings. Robin Uthappa has struck form, but it has come a bit too late to be of any use to his side. As in the last game, where they gave chances to a host of unknown Indian talent, this game also might see untested players coming in. It will be interesting to see if Jammu and Kashmir spinner Parvez Rasool is given a go.
Current standing: Last in points table. 4 points from 12 games
One player to watch out for: Robin Uthappa. He has been striking the ball cleanly in the last few games
Last results: 1) Lost to Rajasthan by 5 wickets.
2) Lost to Bangalore by 17 runs
3) Lost to Chennai by 37 runs
Kolkata's performance this year, after winning the 5th edition, has probably been as disappointing as Yuvraj's form for Pune. They have done well in spurts, but have largely been uninspiring. It's not like they have struggled with their foreign talents. Jacques Kallis has been decent, Senanayake has done the job he has been asked of, Narine has provided them the tight overs and breakthroughs, while Morgan has finished off a few games brilliantly (and single-handedly). It's the marquee Indian players who haven't come to the party. Gambhir himself, Yusuf Pathan, Manoj Tiwary or even L Balaji have been largely lackluster after last year's triumphal showing. The last game against Mumbai was an abject surrender with the bat after a poor effort in the field. If anything, they will aim to win the last 4 games just to prove the class and quality in their side. Probably they should think of giving foreign recruits like Ryan Ten Doeschate a go.
Current Standing: 7th in points table. 8 points from 12 games.
One player to watch out for: Sunil Narine. He has bowled well in all games, but hasn't been amongst the wickets. Expect a rich haul soon.
Last results 1) Lost to Mumbai by 65 runs
2) Won against Rajsthan by 8 wickets.
Pride at stake for defending champions

Piggly Wiggly to become Supervalu when it reopens
Ken Watts | 6/21/2013, 6:17 a.m.
DECATUR The 40-year-old Candler Road Piggly Wiggly supermarket will have a new name when it completes its renovations on July 1.
Store operator Ken Hong said the store will be called DeKalb Supervalu Foods.
He said he signed with Supervalu on June 12 and removed the Piggly Wiggly logo on June 19. He said the new chain is more community-oriented and provides a high quality customer experience.
The store is undergoing a $120,000 upgrade in the wake of a monthlong demonstration by civil rights groups after customers complained about moldy produce, outdated foods and rundown conditions at the store.
Operation Lead and the DeKalb Chapter of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference picketed the store to pressure Hong to make improvements.
The upgrades include new meat and produce display cases, new shelving, improved refrigeration, and refurbished checkout area. Protest leaders John Evans and Nathan Knight called off the demonstration on May 30 after meeting with Hong.
Hong said Supervalu is helping with renovation costs.

Regent University president, Dr. Carlos Campo (pictured R), signed a formal partnership agreement with Norfolk State University president, Dr. Tony Atwater (pictured L), at NSU's Lyman Beecher Brooks Library on Wednesday Feb. 27. The agreement marked the start of the Bachelor of Arts-Juris Doctorate program between NSU and Regent.
The program will provide qualified pre-law NSU students with a clear and concise pathway through the rigorous application process that law school entails. The signing signified Regent's commitment to guiding students through the law school admissions process. Together, the two schools are dedicated to offering NSU students counsel throughout the LSAT process, special campus tours of Regent as well as sessions with law faculty, students and admissions officers.
Campo hopes this agreement will be both encouraging and beneficial to NSU pre-law students seeking their future in law. He welcomed these prospective students into the Regent family.
"I don't want to hear that NSU doesn't have a law school," said Campo. "NSU does have a law school—and it's Regent University."
Jeffrey Brauch, dean of Regent University School of Law, welcomed the agreement with NSU, and introduced Regent's philosophy of law to the students and faculty attending the ceremony.
"Lawyers are to be servants; people come to them when things are going wrong," said Brauch. "We teach our students how to speak wisdom into their lives, homes, and families."
Atwater said he is excited to see the prospects this partnership with Regent could offer for the future of qualified NSU students participating in this program.
"I'd like to see renowned attorneys and even members of the Supreme Court of the United States come from this program," said Atwater.
Both presidents noted that this partnership will not generate preferential treatment, or relax admissions standards, but said that it will simply aid in alleviating the pressures pre-law students face when applying for law school.
Brauch said he looks forward to the potential generation of lawyers that may come from NSU, and hopes this partnership will give them the chance to pursue a degree they are truly passionate about.
"I can tell that NSU students care deeply about their community—that's in [Regent's] heart as well," said Brauch. "We're looking for servant leaders who can change the world one client at a time."

Also known as "the Guitar Wizard," the blues musician Tampa Red was a master of the slide guitar and one of the most prominent figures of the Chicago, Illinois, blues scene during the 1930s and 1940s. Though little known today, he was a popular and influential performer whose recording career extended from 1928 to 1960.
Born Hudson Woodbridge on January 8, 1904, in Smithville, Georgia, he was raised in Tampa, Florida, by his grandmother's family, the Whittakers, whose name he adopted. He was already known as Tampa Red when he arrived in Chicago in the mid-1920s, fresh from the southern theater circuit. He worked a day job but played guitar on street corners and in clubs, looking for a break.
It came when he was hired to accompany Gertrude "Ma" Rainey, through whom he met pianist Georgia Tom Dorsey. In 1928 Tampa Red and Georgia Tom recorded "It's Tight Like That." A jaunty, ragtime-influenced number with whimsically bawdy lyrics, it was a national hit on the Vocalion label. Tampa Red and Dorsey recorded several successful follow-up songs as the Hokum Boys, and the "hokum" style became a depression-era fad.
Such early recordings demonstrate Tampa Red's already sophisticated slide guitar technique. Playing a metal-bodied National Tricone guitar and sliding a bottleneck along the strings, he created a clear and pure sound, marked by deft single-string solos. His session work appears on many recordings by other artists, including Sonny Boy Williamson and Memphis Minnie. His urbane musicianship stood in sharp contrast to earlier slide-guitar blues and would help set the direction for the postwar style.
Following the repeal of prohibition in 1933, venues for blues music proliferated in Chicago, and Tampa Red became one of the city's hottest live acts, often with the backing of his band, the Chicago Five. With his close friends Big Bill Broonzy and Lester Melrose, a producer for Bluebird Records, Tampa Red was a leader of the Chicago scene. His wife, Frances, acted as his business manager, and their home became an informal boarding house, booking agency, and rehearsal space, where many newcomers to the city found encouragement and support.
By 1940 Tampa Red had made the transition to electric guitar, and he reached the top ten on the rhythm-and-blues chart several times in the postwar period. His 1949 song "When Things Go Wrong with You (It Hurts Me Too)" became a signature tune for the artist Elmore James. Robert Nighthawk, Fats Domino, and B. B. King also scored hits with cover versions of his songs.
His wife's death in 1953 was a blow from which Tampa Red never recovered. He had always been a heavy drinker, and his alcoholism became acute. Like many of his contemporaries, he was "rediscovered" by a new audience in the late 1950s. He went back into the studio in 1960, but his final recordings were undistinguished. He died destitute in Chicago on March 19, 1981, and was inducted into the Blues Foundation's Hall of Fame the same year. He is buried in Glenwood, Illinois.

I'm still paying ~$70 for last year's models on closeout.
Same here, haven't spent more than $65 for a pair of shoes yet. I might break that rule, cause I want a pair of Type A5s for my next 5k, and they're $90. Altho, the Fastwitch 5 is on liquidation for $50, maybe I'll try those. I really want Cortana 2s also, but I'm not paying $140 for 'em, so I'll wait and keep buying original Cortanas on clearance.

I try to keep it under $70 if at all possible, it's really not that difficult. I picked up 4 pairs of Peg 29's around Christmas for under $65 each, I'm good for awhile...lol
I'll see your bet and raise you our regular prices in Canada: http://ca.shop.runningroom.com/shoes.html
Quite literally cheaper buy from the states INCLUDING shipping + duty than it is to buy on clearance at the store across town.

Pah, you Americans and Canadians have it easy! You want to be ripped off? Come to Australia: http://www.asics.com.au/footwear/running-shoes/gel-kayano--19-m
Holy sh!t!
They have the same fashion sensibility as the shoes available at my local bowling alley...
And what makes it doubly-galling is that as I type this the Aus dollar is currently trading at $1.06 vs the US dollar! So using US currency values as a benchmark, Kayanos should be $130-ish here in Australia instead of $260. Someone is making a killing....
Feeling the growl again
I said something similar on here recently but I was informed by those in the industry that clown shoes are what everybody wants to buy now....
I have a habit of wearing worn out running shoes as everyday knockaround shoes once they are retired. Some functions of my company are allowed to dress below business casual. I saw one of these folks walking the hall today in jeans, a decent button-down shirt.....and a pair of these clown shoes.
It looked as stupid as I imagined it would.

In all seriousness, these shoes have one thing that very, very few other shoes have. That's a 4E width. So, if you are diabetic with swollen feet like my dad or need shoes to go over braces like my son these are a hell of a lot better (and more expensive) than the usual "medical" looking shoes, especially if someone with 4E wide feet wants to run.
It would be nice to see more 4E width options in running shoes at normal prices but I guess there isn't enough of a market to give manufactures reason to bother.
When you consider the costs of some of these shoes, it becomes a LOT easier to understand why a lot of people are starting to run barefooted.......cause they cant afford running shoes......
Champions are made when no one is watching
Well, maybe some people like colour? For example, I think Nike grey is so unbelievably b-o-r-i-n-g I wouldn't be seen dead in them. I attempted unsuccessfully to try-on some recently, but was rendered unconscious by their oppressive drabness.
A lot of shoes come in a choice of bright colours or abject boredom. Choice is good. Each to their own, OK?
Ok. Yes. We need to talk about this. I also believe someone is making a killing on this stuff. I live in Germany, and my impression is that shoes cost the same number of euros as dollars - i.e. are 30% more expensive here. Your basic wave riders, air pegasus or whatever are running at LEAST 120-130 euro in the shops. That's almost $160!! Granted the 19.5% value-added tax means the pre-tax price is more like 100 euro, but that's still $130. I don't think I've ever seen Wave Riders for $130 in a US running shop.
So, and then you have the "higher end" models e.g. Wave Nirvana retailing for 150 euro...fortunately last year's models are generally available for 80-90 euro online, which seems like a good deal in comparison.

According to the researchers, that evening was the kind of bloodbath De La Soul never warned us about:Rollerdiscos are associated with a high incidence of injury, as is binge drinking. On Valentine's evening 2008, Liverpool University combined these two venerable pastimes at a student event, without informing local health services. Subsequently, emergency services were overwhelmed with Rollerdisco casualties and a 'major incident' was declared at the Royal Liverpool Accident and Emergency Department [...] The event itself consisted of a newly laminated hall for roller skating, alcoholic drink promotions and a 1980s themed dress code. Certainly the Accident and Emergency Department became a colourful place with variously injured patients in flamboyant dress and in a generally 'exuberant' mood.In all, eight patients were admitted (one patient for every 17 min of the disco). The majority of injuries were to the upper limb (87%) and in female patients (87%), in keeping with previous studies of Rollerdisco injuries.That last sentence gives me hope that there's a university hospital out there with a wing devoted entirely to the biomechanics of rollerdisco injuries.AdvertisementVia Improbable Research.

Hooray! Another Sports Team Gets Showered With Public Money!
The city of Washington DC is investing $100 million in a new stadium for its soccer club. Why? Hard to say, really. The club's owners say they can't make a profit playing in aging RFK Stadium, but it's not really clear why that's the city's problem. In any case, what makes the whole deal palatable is that it's being done via a complicated land swap that includes some goodies for city residents. Matt Yglesias points out just how ridiculous this is:
Note that while we superficially have a story about sports subsidies here, the real devil's work is being done by accounting. Imagine we had already sold the Reeves Center to a private developer and moved the government offices across the river and had $100 million sitting around in a room somewhere. Now we're debating what to do with the $100 million. The option "use it to buy land and then give it for free to a soccer team" would probably not seem very appealing to people. But since selling the Reeves Center and moving the offices is a very good idea, including that swap as part of the bundle rather than considering it separately makes the plan look pretty good.
Actually, you never know. It might very well seem like a good idea. America's love affair with showering money on profit-making sports enterprises is a never-ending source of awe. Why on earth do we do it?1
1Don't even think of saying that it pays for itself by generating lots of additional business and tax revenues. Just don't.

Brand History
Clair Omar Musser was a gifted marimba performer, conductor, composer, and marimba designer. He was even trained as an aircraft engineer. In 1930, he became the chief engineer and designer for the JC Deagan Mallet Instrument Company and in 1948, left to start the Musser Mallet Company in the Chicago area.
Musser created the modern Vibraphone design and expanded the line into marimbas, xylophones, chimes, and orchestra bells. It would grow to become the most dominant mallet instrument company in the world.
In 1956, Musser sold his business to Lyons Band in Chicago. A few years later it was sold to Dick Richardson who grew the company further by creating a partnership with the Ludwig Drum Company to distribute products through the same sales team. During this era, jazz vibe legend Lionel Hampton became a major influence for the Musser Company.
In 1965, Ludwig acquired Musser creating a "Total Percussion" company with mallet instruments and drums. Artists like Gary Burton arrived on scene and elevated the Musser brand to new heights.
With a potential shortage of rosewood used to make bars for xylophones and marimbas in the 70's, Musser would be the first to develop a synthetic bar material made from Kelon ®, a special blend of fiberglass strands. This innovation allowed instruments to be used in outside weather elements in drum corps and marching bands.
In 1981, Ludwig Musser was sold to the Selmer Company. Production of Musser mallet instruments continued to be made in LaGrange, Illinois outside of Chicago until 2013 when production was moved to Elkhart, Indiana. Musser today is known as the choice for "sound" by professionals.

Mount Rogers National Recreation Area
The NRA consists of three distinct regions:
The West End of the Mount Rogers NRA includes the famous Virginia Creeper Trail, outstanding trout fishing in Whitetop Laurel, and picturesque Beartree Lake. The NRA?s largest campground, Beartree, is a great family campground and close to all west end activities. Damascus, the friendliest town on the Appalachian Trail, is a trail hub as four major trails go through the town: Virginia Creeper, Appalachian Trail, Iron Mountain, and Daniel Boone Heritage Trail.
Are you looking for solitude? The family campgrounds at Comers Rock and Raven Cliff are lightly used and have several nice trails nearby. The Comers Rock Overlook has outstanding views and the Raven Cliff Furnace Trail takes you to a fascinating iron ore furnace from the early 1800?s. Looking for something more developed? Two rental cabins with outstanding views are located on the East End. The East End also has several horse trails and horse camps for the equestrian. Hussy Mountain and Collins Cove Horse Camps provide camping areas close to the famous Virginia Highlands Horse Trail.
The heart of the NRA, the high country contains over 25,000 acres of the highest lands in Virginia. The Mount Rogers NRA manages approximately 20,000 acres of the high country and 5,000 acres are managed by Grayson Highlands State Park. The high country consists of the following areas:
Combined, these two federally designated wildernesses total about 10,000 acres of primitive backcountry. These two areas are forested in northern hardwoods with red spruce and Fraser Fir at the highest elevations.
The open areas on Brier Ridge, Cabin Ridge, Wilburn Ridge, Stone Mountain, and Pine Mountain are commonly called the Crest Zone and total about 2,000 acres. Views are spectacular, with rocky ridges and grassy areas. The area was once heavily forested, but over logging by private companies during the early 1900?s, and wildfire created the balds. Grazing by domestic livestock kept them open. The USDA Forest Service acquired the property during the 1960?s. Today the balds are kept open through prescribed burning and regulated cattle grazing by private farmers who lease grazing rights. Ponies- Two herds of free-roaming ponies make their home in the high country. A private association manages them. One herd is in Grayson Highlands State Park, and the other lives within the Crest Zone of the Mount Rogers National Recreation Area. Enjoy the ponies, but do not feed them or harass them. In the fall, some of the ponies are auctioned at the Grayson Highlands State Park Fall Festival to manage the population.
There are over 400 miles of designated trails on the Mount Rogers National Recreation Area. Trails range from primitive single-track to old logging roads and railroad grades. Some are for foot only, others allow horse and/or bicycle use. Plan your trip carefully if you are looking for solitude. Trails in the high country as well as the Virginia Creeper and Appalachian Trail are popular destinations, particularly on weekends. Please be sure you use only those trails open to your particular type of travel. Please note that trails within wildernesses are always primitive with few or no signs or blazes and may be difficult to follow in places. Before heading into wilderness, you should be competent with both map and compass. Any type of motorized or wheeled vehicles (including bicycles and any type of wheeled cart) is prohibited in wilderness, but horses are allowed on designated trails.

Happy camping
by Gman
We camped hear late April 2009. We stayed at the Grindstone campground. The staff was great and the site was beautiful and secluded. The bath house was clean, but the fixtures were a little old. I would recommend this campground to anyone in need of a quite place to stay. The campgroud has a wadding area fed by a creek, a play area for kids and plenty of trails. It was close to the the Creeper trail the reason we went up.

Forum List » Guru News and Commentaries Guru News, Stock picks and commentaries Chuck Royce on 3Q13: Quality Small-Caps Can Continue to Bear Fruit
Posted by: Holly LaFon
(IP Logged)
Date: October 1, 2013 02:54PM
Co-CIO, President, and Portfolio Manager Chuck Royce discusses his outlook on the current state of the small-cap market, his continued confidence in quality despite the Fed's announcement in September to prolong its ongoing stimulus efforts, and the current case for active small-cap management. With such a strong rally for the Russell 2000 Index through the end of September, what is the state of the small-cap market right now? What is your outlook? It seems to me that there are two parts to this: Small-caps have been on an extraordinary run since the trough in 2009—from the March 9 low in that year through the end of this year's third quarter, the Russell 2000 advanced 233.2%, which is an outstanding performance over a more than four-year period. As a result of this bull phase, the three-year average annual return for the small-cap index is approaching the stratosphere. Year-to-date through September 30, 2013, the Russell was up 27.7%, which was also remarkable. Since the inception of the index at the end of 1978, small-caps exceeded that nine-month return 56 out of 409 times when you measure using monthly rolling returns. So this is an extraordinary time in the literal sense of the term. It seems unlikely to me that small-caps can keep up the current pace. History certainly indicates that they won't. So while I expect returns to level off over the next couple of years, I also still see positive results for small-caps. The economy is growing, however slowly, many investors remain very under-invested in equities relative to bonds, and I expect a number of opportunities within the small-cap space can continue to bear fruit over the next few years. If the economy keeps growing slowly, isn't the market likely to see a major correction? Many market observers have been noting that stocks are ahead of fundamentals, and I see some truth in that. But I don't think this means that small-caps are on a collision course with a sustained decline or a catastrophic correction such as we saw in late 2008-early 2009. I think we're more likely to see a series of small corrections that will slow the current breakneck pace of returns. It seems to me that this is all part of a larger normalization process affecting the economy and the financial markets. Corrections are a fact of life, and we haven't seen one in a while. So there will be some pullback, but I believe it will be manageable, at least for those of us with a disciplined, long-term approach. Are you concerned that quality will continue to lag now that the Fed has announced it will not initiate tapering any time soon?Not really. I think that since May of this year, we've seen the market begin to reward quality. Several of what we see as our highest-quality names have done well during this time, while many income-at-any-price investments, such as REITs, have fallen back.High-growth, more speculative issues have also done well so far this year, even better than in 2012, but I suspect that quality stocks, which we define primarily as those with strong balance sheets and high returns on invested capital, will continue to emerge. In our view they remain one of the few reasonably, or in many cases attractively, priced areas in the small-cap market. We see more and more investors catching on to their appeal. Do you think the Fed is sending a mixed message to investors?I think it's certainly been a confusing message, which was arguably more confusing for bondholders than investors in equities. It was very interesting to me that rates fell only slightly in mid-September when the Fed announced that tapering would be delayed for a while. The rate on the 10-year Treasury did not come close to where it was in May.I think this small decline is a healthy sign. In one sense, bondholders simply did not believe the Fed. In fact, I think most investors throughout the market are acknowledging that tapering has to start soon, that rates need to keep rising incrementally, and that the economy is healthy enough to stand more firmly on its own feet. And even with the recent increase, it's important to remember that on an absolute level, interest rates are still quite low. What is the current case for active small-cap management?We've seen tough times over the last few years for active approaches. I think the Fed's Operation Twist, which began in September 2011, resulted in a bond-buying frenzy that distorted reality in the conduct of investors and corporations and saw quality stocks begin to seriously lag.Yet I think the effects of that policy are played out. So I see the potential for success for active management approaches that emphasize quality and that seek the best-run, most fundamentally sound companies, which are ultimately the best businesses in that they have the ability to compound over long-term periods. This gives them the potential to provide the returns most investors want, whether it be in the form of dividends, share buy-backs, or other prudent and sensible methods of allocating capital. Those are the companies we're looking to invest in every day.

March 25 will see the release of The Upsetter: The Life And Music Of Lee "Scratch" Perry, a documentary about the influential reggae producer and musician. Directed by Ethan Higbee and Alan Bhala Lough, The Upsetter is a look at Perry's life, which settled comfortably into "eccentric" and toed the line into "nuts." The film is narrated by Academy Award-winning actor Benicio Del Toro for that extra gravitas.
Perry was born in Jamaica, and was instrumental in crafting the sound of dub in the '70s, recording artists such as Bob Marley in his home studio, the Black Ark. The musician has remained active over the years and has produced tracks by artists as diverse as Paul McCartney and the Clash.
The Upsetter will premiere on March 25 in Los Angeles' the Downtown Independent and will travel to select American cities over the following month. Perry himself remarked coherently, "Hallo to you my Peeples out there this is my movie of the Past AND the Present….Enjoy it God Bless it Lee $cratch Perry Vi$$ions." Higbee is also directing a documentary of controversial rapper Lil B titled Basedworld.
