Post subject: WinstonWolf's regular routine (Jan 08)
Figured I'd contribute...
I'll start with what I usually do in addition to SG:
I. I need to start always doing a warmup of 5-10 minutes of stuff, a few pushups, squats, jumping jacks, etc to get the body moving. I haven't been doing that much but it really helps when I do it. After that...
II. Usually, I take 5-10 minutes to do 100 pushups, of various types regular, incline, decline, wide, close-grip, diamond, "spiderman", shoulder, off-set, one-leg...), generally in sets of 20 and 10.
III. Then, ~15 minutes of pilates matwork moves for some core work/active stretching. It's not the full sequence (I wish!) but about half of it. I definitely feel more limber after SG if I include the pilates that day.
IV. Then SG.
Hammers: I have an 8, 10, 12, and now a 16... the 16 is for days I'm really feeling up to it, the 12 is probably my current "main" hammer in terms of ability and comfort while doing the moves. The 8, which was hard back in August of last year... is now dead easy and good for speed work.
I usually pick a rep count for the day: 7x, 14x, or 21x (per side for some,
or total for 2 handed exercises), entirely depending on how I feel that
If it's a 7 or 14 rep day, I add whatever other moves (ab killers, rows,
cleans, one-leg deadlift, whatever) feel good within the time limit. 21
rep days usually take the whole time, particularly with the 16 lber.
1) Drive fence post (variant) - feet parallel (R, L)
2) Churn butter (2 handed with heaviest current hammer; 1 handed and
two-handed with lighter ones)
3) Hoist Sack (same as churn butter)
4) "windshield wipers" (off a video posted recently in the SG forum) (R,L)
5) (sometimes, depending on how my legs feel) lunge or walking lunge holding hammer
6) (sometimes) squat with "shovel to the side" / stoke the engine, I guess
7) squat to tuck bales (R,L)
(sometimes) flip switch (usually no more than 7 per arm - don't want to push it too hard, and have some tendinitis-like stuff going on) (R,L)
9) shovel (R,L)
10) side chop / chop tree (R,L)
11) More like 'classic' drive fence post, I guess. Feet offset, I really
emphasize the weight change from back to front to back, and bring the
hammer back to the side, then over the shoulder, then down. Feels a bit
more complicated than the video Reinhard has, but maybe it's about the same thing.
Another fun thing, though, is about once per week, I'll do what one might
call "ladders". I might only get through 3-6 moves, but I'll do 7 (per arm
or with both arms, depending on the move) per hammer.
So, 7x fence post (r,l) on the 8, then on the 10, then the 12, and now the
16. Shakes things up.
Could be done similarly by running through a truncated workout with one
hammer, then the next, then the next, etc.
V. Then, I do about 5-10 minutes of static stretching once I'm done.
On a good week, I'll be on Sun-Tues, rest Weds, on Thurs/Fri, rest Sat. I
like doing a workout on Sunday, and feel like Wednesday makes a good rest day.
Like Reinhard has said, it's maintenance. I do some other things to
actually build muscle/lose fat, but these help get me going and work out on a daily basis. Plus, I enjoy these which is why I do them fairly
My weight, on the other hand, still sucks - currently ~210, about 27% body fat according to the tanita scale... went from 195 to 165 ... six years ago, for a year or so ... then 165 --> 195 --> 205 --> 220 over a few years ... hopefully, this is more sustainable. Goal weight?
Well, I'm 5'7", but (really) I'm "big boned" and have very large legs, so while BMI says I should be 150 (and I was, in college) ... I figure 170 is probably sustainable as long as body fat % is below, say, 20 or 15%.
I do feel vastly stronger than when I started in August, though.
If I'm being efficient, all told takes about an hour. I'm not always that
efficient, though.
I also do the occasional yoga workout (not enough), some of Scott Sonnen's stuff, and Craig Ballantyne's Turbulence Training, as well as kettlebell workouts here and there, and I'm getting set up to do more barbell lifting (bought a squat rack, had gotten a hand-me-down weight set and bench from wife's parents) and other odds and ends.
I strive to workout a couple times a day, but just getting in the "regular"
stuff 5 days a week is sometimes challenging enough...

Thank you for posting your routine and keeping me company here!
It's interesting to see how people incorporate shovelglove into larger routines... yours sounds VERY hard core.
I guess even I do some non-shovelglove moves like pushups and squats, but it's just a little sprinkling and I essentially just treat them as sledgehammerless shovelglove moves in terms of the routine.
I'm sort of amazed that I've never felt the need to do stretches. I keep waiting to feel stiff or something but it never comes, so I just skip it. I hope this isn't the sort of thing where I suddenly wake up a cripple 5 years from now
Regarding the weight, are you still doing no-s? (or something). Shovelglove+no-s tends to be a very effective combination (not to mention all that other exercise you're doing).

Eh shrug. I don't know about the routine being hardcore, really, it just seems to work for me. This and that I've picked up over the years.
Well, regarding stretching... a few years ago, I got into very good shape over the course of a year or so. "Boot Camp" by The Sarge (Patrick Avon) helped with that, got me into jogging and stretching and light bodyweight exercises. I worked up to (over a few months!) jogging a mile or so five days a week, warming up by climbing up and down the stairs in my building (12 flights)... my wife (a lifelong distance runner) tells me that was pretty impressive as a warmup. Shrug. It took a while to get there but it worked at the time.
I also did freeweights (dumbbells) three times a week, and pilates/yoga a few times a week, and some swing dancing. I was in very good shape, but when I was exercising the most, I was also post-ex-gf and pre-current-wife. Funny how much free time you have as a single guy...
Then I got tired of running in cold, and stopped. 195 --> 165 --> 195. Funny that, you gain weight when you don't exercise (or I do) .... anyway.
So, why stretching?
Well, my hamstrings and calves and so forth get VERY tight. So tight that even attempting to jog on a treadmill was a no-go a few months ago. Usually do ellipticals for cardio, and I don't walk as much as I'd like.
Plus, the Boot Camp book always recommended static stretching (which I now finish up with, rather than do ahead of time)... so do a lot of exercise websites/experts.
I will admit to being hardcore about getting up early... 5:45 am when I'm being really consistent, let's me workout til about 7:30 am. Gets easier though when I actually feel GOOD all day after working out! (When I'm consistent... this month I've been sick and dealing with minor ouches so it's been two weeks mostly off. Bleah. I really felt the pushups this morning! I usually don't feel them that much if I've been doing them consistently.)
Plus, evenings are still only occasionally doable for workouts.
My Sep, Oct, and Nov were really good. Of course, our new daughter came November 1... so consistency's been a bit more challenging for some reason
As far as excercise is concerned, I find that WHAT is done isn't necessarily as important as doing it every day - or most days, anyway.,.. it definitely doesn't hurt to have rest days!
As to no-S, yeah, mostly.
Sunday night through Friday (day) ... I try not to eat any processed foods with sugar (I do eat fruit and drink the occasional glass of OJ/pomegranite juice), although as I've mentioned on the no-S board, I make an exception for a (small!) bit of chocolate or 4 chocolate almonds per day. Major chocaholic. Friday night through Sunday day, S-days, but I'll either have dessert, or a couple donuts, or a soda and that's about the extent of it.
I'm trying to make my diet generally healthier... steel-cut oats a lot of mornings, for instance, and getting more veggies.
I pretty much keep to no snacks and no seconds all week. They're not really my big vices, unless we're at a buffet restaurant or something, which we do maybe once a year. OTOH - I have been known to have waffles with maple syrup on N-days. I consider that about like the (small amount) of sugar in my coffee, though... sweetener for the meal, not a 'violation'... but then, I'm not using a tracker, either.
Although I do typically have 3 solid meals and a "1/2 meal" most days (an apple + a few almonds + maybe a fiber one bar mid-afternoon).
I do want to add back more cardio, though, and a lot of other things to boot.
Exercise is a better hobby than the 4-5 hours of computer games I was doing a couple years ago... AND since there's really only so much exercise (at most 1-2 hours a day) I want to do... I still have time for family / games / etc (at least when my MBA's done in May!).
I went from 220 to 208 from August of last year through December, and managed to only gain 2 lbs Dec/Jan. I'm satisfied with it so far, I just have a ways I'd like to go.
SG's been a big hit for me, though. It's a fun and satisfying component of the big picture.

CRESTVIEW � New Crestview High School head football coach Tim Hatten leads the Bulldogs onto the field for the first time today with the opening of spring football practice 2013. The new coach expects to have between 100 and 120 players who will be 10th- through 12th-graders in the fall.
CRESTVIEW � New Crestview High School head football coach Tim Hatten leads the Bulldogs onto the field for the first time today with the opening of spring football practice 2013.
The new coach expects to have between 100 and 120 players who will be 10th- through 12th-graders in the fall.
Getting to know the coach
Hatten, who has been on the job since March 11, is pleased with what he's seen from the team during the off season.
"I like the enthusiasm of the kids," he said. �I like their work ethic... We are just going to have to take it one day at a time and see how everybody develops."
Hatten said a large part of spring will be spent finding a comfort level between him and the players.
"More than anything else, they have got to get to know me and what to expect," he said. "It's not going to be a big adjustment for me. I've been coaching for 25 years.
"I feel comfortable with this group of kids. They need to get to know me, and what I expect from them as football players, because we (coaches) are all different."
Hatten said he believes his offense strategy will be fun and easy for players to pick up.
"It's going to be the easiest offense for them to learn," he said. "What I try to do in my off season is try to make it a little bit easier for the kids.
"Sometimes it's a little bit harder for coaches because we fit it for kids."
Hatten has spent his first six weeks at Crestview teaching the players his offense during their football class.
Now, the competition for starting positions really begins.
Finding a starting quarterback
Perhaps the most pressing need is to find a starting quarterback to replace Dakota Davis.
Rising senior Khalil Foster, a backup quarterback in 2011, probably enters spring drills as the front runner for the job, but the competition will be wide open.
Corey Armstrong, a rising sophomore, could be in the mix as well, but he won't join the football team until the Crestview baseball team's season ends. Hatten said he would be wouldn't mind if Armstrong missed all of spring practice, as that would mean the baseball team was making a deep run into the playoffs.
Finding continuity
The Bulldogs will spend the first three days of practice in the mandatory helmets and shorts. Monday, they will put on the full gear for the first time and start hitting.
Hatten said he tries to limit his practices to two hours, but occasionally, when working with many players, practices might go an extra 15 or 30 minutes.
Hatten understands it takes a team time to learn a new offense, and he's not expecting the Bulldogs to be anywhere near the finished product by spring�s end.
"I think what we do on offense is really, really player-friendly, and I've seen that for 25 years," he said. "I've certainly seen that for the last month-and-a-half with the installation process. It's certainly going to take us to probably the spring game to have any continuity in how well we execute.
"And we aren't going to be a really good executing team by the time the spring game comes here, but the time next year comes here, I think we will be OK."

Mihalik, Wishart Returned to Norfolk
Tampa Bay Lightning Executive Vice President & General Manager Brian Lawton announced today that the Bolts have returned prospect defensemen Vladimir Mihalik and Ty Wishart to the Norfolk Admirals.
Mihalik, 6-foot-7, 222 pounds, appeared in three games with Tampa Bay after being recalled on January 1. He registered his first NHL point with an assist yesterday in the Lightning's 4-1 win at Atlanta. During the recall, Mihalik registered one assist and two penalty minutes. Mihalik has appeared in his first five career NHL games with Tampa Bay this season, registering one assist and two penalty minutes. He was drafted by the Lightning in the first round, 30th overall, in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft.
Wishart, a 6-foot-4, 205-pound rookie defenseman, made his NHL debut Saturday, January 3 versus Carolina. He logged 7:53 of ice time and blocked two shots.
Concurrent with the return of Mihalik and Wishart, the Admirals have released defenseman Mitch Ganzak from his Professional Tryout Contract (PTO).

Treasurer's office now open
Jasper County Judge John D. Potter issued a continuance on the request to have Starke County Commissioners, Starke County Treasurer Linda Belork and their counsel in Jasper Court Monday, Oct. 29 to explain to the judge why they believe they should not be held in contempt of court for closing the Starke County Treasurer's office last Monday until the matter of Belork's lack of bond is rectified.
Belork was reinstated as Starke County Treasurer last Monday morning following Judge John Potter's ruling, issued Thursday, Oct. 18, that said Belork was entitled to serve in the office she was elected to in November 2008. Belork took office Jan. 1, 2009; however, on Aug. 11, 2011, she was removed from her position following the results of the Indiana State Board of Accounts 2010 audit of the county.
Starke County Commissioners held an open door emergency meeting on the morning of Monday, Oct. 22 to address the issue of Belork's bonding. Indiana Statute IC 5-4-1-18 states that a county treasurer shall file an individual surety bond, and IC 5-4-1-9 says, "An officer required to give an official bond shall give the bond before the commencement of his term of office." Belork's official bond was revoked following her removal from office in August 2011.
The bond is required to "cover the faithful performance of duties of an officer" and to "account properly for all monies and property received by virtue of the officer's position."
While the commissioners recognized Belork as Treasurer, Indiana law states that she cannot assume the duties of the office she was elected to unless she is bonded.
Commissioner Dan Bridegroom said, "Linda Belork is the County Treasurer, but State law says she has to be bonded. We cannot take on that liability. That is the purpose of this meeting today."
Wednesday, Oct. 24, Judge Potter held a telephone conference with Belork's attorney Ethan Lowe and legal representation for the county Martin Lucas regarding Potter's order to reinstate Belork as treasurer not being upheld.
While the commissioner's decision to close the office was what they believed to be in keeping with Indiana law, apparently, the judge viewed the action as nullification of his ruling.
Counsel for both Linda Belork and the county as well as Belork and all three commissioners were initially required to be in Jasper Circuit Court at 3 p.m. Monday to explain to the judge why they believed they should not be held in contempt of court. Presently, neither a date nor time has been set for the parties to appear in Jasper Court.
The Starke County Treasurer's office is once again open. Belork is currently in her position as Treasurer and she has been afforded all rights, responsibilities and duties that she was elected to.
Tax payments can be made at the Treasurer's office; and the deadline is still Nov. 10. Persons who do not wish to pay in person may still do so by mail.
Starke County Commission Vice-President Dan Bridegroom released the following statement Thursday, "In deference to the Jasper Circuit Court's ruling denying the Starke County Board of Commissioners' Motion to Clarify Order, the Starke County Treasurer's Office is now open."

Stevivor -- "Thanks to Reddit, we've been made aware of allegations that an Australian EB Games store was handing out free "cocaine" alongside Grand Theft Auto V pre-orders last night.
The full image, below, was posted to Reddit by user mattwestcott last night."
Yeah, I know that the title's wonky. Changed it from rumour to news and it went a bit silly. :S
Even if it is fake, I'm sure you can still get into serious trouble for it, this is just stupid.
I doubt anyone Is that stupid. This is probably just some employee's horribly thought out idea of a joke.

Post subject: 7!!!! years of NoS and *still* loving it!
Yes, it's that time of year again--passed 7 years of NoS-ing this summer.
I still think it is THE most sustainable, sane, and satisfying way of enjoying good meals through all seasons of life.
For those who want the whole story,
here are the links to past testimonials--all those insights still hold true today (including never once making it into the 21-day club. Perfection not required for long-term success!), so I won't repeat.
Year 1:
Year 2:
Year 3:
Year 4:
Year 5:
Year 6:
So where am I now?
In my current season, with unexpected (but Lord willing) temporary health issues, I gained 10lbs since the spring of this year. I suspect it was a combo of
1. Going from a 10000 step a day habit to just 3000 on average,
2. Continuing to eat what I "always" ate even though my activity level decreased so much, and
3. Rationalizing a few too many "this extra bite/sweet won't hurt/count" moments.
TBH, because I don't weigh myself that often, I didn't notice until my clothes got uncomfortably tight.
After casting around for something to add TO NoS, I realized that I really didn't need to
--I just needed to double down on No Excuses and take the time to really enjoy the meals I do eat, particularly paying attention to what satisfies rather than "what I've always eaten." I've also been able to start building up my walking endurance which can only help (currently working on 5000/day average).
Thus, in the past two months (including vacation!), I've lost 3 of those 10 pounds....
And I must say that I appreciate a thousand times over the hopeful, proactive mindset that NoS engenders.
On another forum (not weightloss related, but the topic comes up often enough) the whole tone is one of all the reasons why one *can't* lose weight: "Not my fault", "Carbs to blame", "Hypothroidism keeps me fat", "Too short", "Too old", "Pre-Menopause", "Post-Menopause". Really, it is SOOO depressing to read and sadly few want to hear that habit changes make for real (albeit slow) progress...
However, YOU guys do, so celebrate with me! NoS *does* work for this post-menopausal, short (5'2"), Hashimoto (thyroid)-stricken, recovering from illness woman.
Thanks again, Reinhard!

Awesome! Yep, I was one of those ppl who really thought I couldn't lose weight anymore. I started NoS mostly for some sanity. It gave me that but I started to lose weight too. I was like I can't believe I've been so convinced of this all these years.
NoS is such a blessing & you're a huge inspiration so thanks for keeping us up to date. I have no doubt the other 7 lbs will come off in time but either way you're doing fantastic!!

Congratulations again on your continued success, and thank you so much for continuing to keep us posted here! There is no more important kind of testimonial than these long term successes.
Thanks also for not whitewashing away your difficulties -- they're just as important for aspiring long term No-essers to know about.
Best wishes in year 8,

Always good to hear from you, Vicki, and congratulations! It's very encouraging, esp. for this post-menopausal 5'2" woman.
I'm making a fresh start, yet again, so it's not only beneficial to hear from the "old-timers" but also those who are new to NoS and the methods they employ.

So glad that you are encouraged! I always suggest that newcomers read the sticky labeled NoS Catch Phrase Glossary near the top of the General Discussion Forum page which really is full of pithy insights that keep us grounded to the sanity of NoS.... *I* like to reread it on occasion....
And best wishes on your NoS journey. You travel it one day, one meal at a time.

Thank you Vikki,
The pointer to the phrases is truly helpful. I particularly like 'If hunger isn't the problem, food is not the solution.' (or something to that effect) I began pretty well mid-March, but the last couple of weeks, I've had to travel to assist with aging parent issues. I have not been been No S-ing. Today is a fresh start, a fresh month. I'm still away from home today, but this phrase will help remind me that NO S-ing is about bodily nourishment, all other eating is not going to relieve any of the stress I'm feeling in the present situation.

YES! Success with NoS is only a meal away..... Glad the Sticky Phrases helped... It is SO important to get the right words into our heads, to combat what I call "diet chatter"...

What If You Were GOD ?
If you were to become god or Jesus, What would you do and Why?
I would first Destroy everyone that i originally hated, because they seemed annoying.. and I would make cures for Cancer.
I would kill myself (GOD) and tells all the human that after I'm dead, they all have to start believing in themselves and stop depending on me Sooner or later they will realize that there is no more GOD exist on this earth, and only human can help themselves
wow u guys would do terrible things.. except cure cancer tat's cool.
I would feel very sad because then i would have a huge responsibility. Then i would lie on a huge pile of cash with 7 beautiful ladies.. ohh yeh.
I am God, God of Destruction...So I guess I'd do exactly what I do now....*twidles thumbs*...Ok this isn't working.
So i may not actually inherit my powers till I die, but when i do get them I'll do one of many things:
1) Destroy all the scum; Pedo's rapists, murderers...Don't want to know you, so they'll no longer exist.
2) Eliminate all naturally obtained diseases/viruses; Anything which you get randomly for no reason, like certain cancers. Though I believe in reap what you sow, so people who get lung cancer from smoking or any STI's in the room..been nice knowing you (Not that you can die from STI's)
3) Destroy the Driving Standards association;....Mainly because they're money grabbing bastards who won't pass anyone whose not 100% perfect at driving.
4) Enforce better laws; Our country sucks so bad I could set better laws and I'm only 18...Like I said, bringing back the death penalty for some, and harsher sentences for others. I'm looking at 25 years for drink drivers, they're not likely to do it again.
5) Solve world hunger and thirst;...Not going to say HOW I'll do it, but I will be god so I just can OK?
6) Reveal myself as the one and only god to stop all these bullshit religions from tearing each other to pieces. If they all believed in just me, then life would be easier.
i will tell people to stop thanking me....i havent done anything.

LOL yea. 7 sexy ladies.....
dont u ppl have any GOOD reasons to be god..
I would kill half the population to show I ment business and then rule as the god of Doom and Chaos. I then would Kill my self in the form of a god of justice and mercy to win over the masses. Next for the good of all I would rule as a tyrant so something similar dosen't happen or at least that is what I will tell the masses. Then I will have people make manga and anime for me forever.
"The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made."
-Groucho Marx
Entertain me with your madness and confusion.
i'll make sure once the person dies that they wont be able to come to heaven or all those happy religous people want to go when they die...
Its Morphin Time!
I'd sit back, relax, have a cool drink and watch the world blow itself up =)
Dead to the world
i find this kinda dumb but id do wut god does
<--- my fav actress...y is she so darn adorable +.+

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE I'm in love
I would kill all of the stupid presidents. And all of the people that think that this thread is pointless
I wouldn't do anything. I'm God!

In this case…poo!
No, honestly. A poo cookbook. Actually, "Poo" is the nickname of Bangkok chef Saiyuud Diwong, and in Thai, it means "crab", not "crap".
"Cooking with Poo" is either pure marketing genius, since the book has been talked about (even becoming a trending topic on Twitter) or a dead flop, because all the marketing in the world won't get me to buy a cookbook that makes me feel queasy.
So what do you think? Marketing genius? Or gross-out flop?
What do you think about "Cooking with Poo"?
For a different take on the issue, perhaps this might be of interest…
…and I sure hope those are chocolate chips, and not what I think they are.

Tank Bib fits my 04 FXDWG perfectly, looks great and quality is excellent, delivery time was unbelievable, ordered on a Friday afternoon and arrived at my place in OZ on the following Tuesday. Great work JP Cycles
The notches did not fit as said they would. I have a 2006 Deluxe. I just tightened it down tight on the consul..works great. I bought it for my iPod
Great. Lots of storage space. I put my phone and a charger in there and still have room for other stuff.
I have 2016 deluxe and fits perfect.. less then 5 min to install.. bigger then I expected.. Thank you again J&P...
Very nice and excellent quality of materials. Looks great on my 2000 Flstc
Love it. This is probably my favorite appearance item ever. It goes great with the Mustang vintage seat.
For tanks with the center chrome, bib will not fit unless you remove the chrome strip. My 1200C sportster tank looked great naked, but pouch is better for function - it lies flat and will swallow items up to 3 inches high.
I have been wanting a tank bib for my 883 Harley and finally broke down and ordered this one from J&P Cycles. With the discount the price couldn't be beat and the quality is excellent! The pocket on the bib is just the right size. I absolutely love this tank bib! Makes my bike look sharp too ! You can't go wrong with J&P Cycles for sure! I will order from them again. Shipping was fast too. Great job J&P !!
cool just what I wanted
Looks good, easy install, handy storage.
This was the perfect solution for storing registration, Insurance and other small do dads. Well made and easy to install, typical Mustang quality stuff, worth the bucks .
Easy to install. Gives a unique look. Price is a little high, but overall very happy with the purchase.
Fits perfectly on my 2015 Iron 883 with stock tank. Good material and finish. Slightly cumbersome to install as instructions leaflet did not have precise steps mentioned for Iron 883.
Does anyone know if this tank bib scratches paint?
One of the best things I have bought for the Sportster, handy and looks great.
Looks real nice on my tank.
Great service and the wife loves this product on her Sportster.
I have not installed my tank bra yet.To cold in the garage. I see the bag space is roomy. Going to armorall and install and go ride.
Supple, high quality leather that bent nicely around the custom gas tank on my Fatboy. The pouch lays flat. Nice, classy look.
well made typical for mustang
Very nice product at a good price. Matches my day tripper seat very well and contours to the tank great. Would buy again
You claimed it would fit a 1996 Softail Nostalgia. It does not mount to the bottom of the dash in any way, the velcro strap at the bottom does very little to keep it in place. I texted a service representative and he told me to GLUE it down. And finally, poor craftsmanship. The pocket is off center by 1/4 inch. I believe you are hoping that people keep the item regardless of fit. I'm sending it back.
Great part looks better then picture. Very happy.
Looks good, fit OK. I would have liked a better fit under the instrument cluster cover around the wiring and cables, but with the cover in place it looks first rate.
Perfect fit!

Weekly Game Balls: Week 11
For the most part it was one ugly game. But there were some worthy contributions that stood out among the disgust that most of us felt until the last drive of the game. With that said I present you the game balls of week 11.
All week we heard about Jerry Jones wanting to give Felix Jones more carries. However, it was Marion Barber who delivered. It was almost as if he had something to prove.
Barber rushed 20 times for 99 yards in addition had one reception for 8 yards.
We enjoyed seeing the beast come out in you MB3, keep up the good work!
This week's defensive/special teams game ball goes to Keith Brooking.
Keith Brooking has been simply amazing. Week in and week out he is out there on the field giving 110%. You can even spot him on the sidelines giving pep talks and cheering on his teammates. Oh where have you been all our football lives Keith?
Brooking finished the day with four tackles, four assists and a sack.
Keep leading the way Keith!
Way to go to Marion and Keith!
Honorable Mention: Patrick Crayton's winning touchdown.

December 30 – Top Ten Yankees of the Decade
December 30 is one of the very few days of the year on which no Yankee,
past or present, was born. So instead, as the first decade of the 21st
century is about to end, I'll share my thoughts on who were the top ten
performing New York Yankees during the past ten years.
Number 1 – Derek Jeter. He had all the numbers but what makes Jeter so
very special are the intangibles. Has their ever been an athlete more
suited to survive and prosper in the pressure cooker of Big Apple
professional sports? I think not.
Number 2 – Mariano Rivera. The best closer in the history of the game and the best there ever will be.
Number 3 – Alex Rodriguez. I have lots of problems rooting for A-Rod
but no doubts at all regarding his abilities on a baseball field.
Without him the Yankees would not be 2009 World Champs.
Number 4 – Jorge Posada. He plays the toughest position in baseball and
there are very few if any who played it any better than this guy has
during the past decade. He may go brain dead on the base paths from
time-to-time and his arm is not what it used to be but this guy is a
true Yankee.
Number 5 – Andy Pettitte. Like Jeter, its the intangibles that make
Pettitte the top Yankee pitcher during the past ten years. Case and
point was his performance in the 2009 postseason.
Number 6 – Hideki Matsui. If he did not break his wrist on that diving
catch attempt in 2006, Matsui's Yankee career would have been magical
instead of just brilliant and probably still going strong. Instead,
Yankee fans now must bear the pain of seeing this elegant athlete play
the game in an opposing team's uniform.
Number 7 – Robinson Cano. Made this list by bouncing back both at the
plate and in the field during the 2009 regular season and in spite of
his performance in the 2009 postseason.
Number 8 – Mike Mussina. So much was expected of this guy when the
Yankees signed him as a free agent in 2001, that his 123-72 record in
pinstripes is almost overlooked. I guess that's because the Yankees won
World Series the year before he signed and the year after he left with
none in between.
Number 9 – Bernie Williams. I loved the guy. Started the century with three great seasons but became ordinary in the last four.
Number 10 – I can't decide between Giambi, Damon or Soriano. I think Wang also deserves consideration. What do you think?

Last night was the final Korakuen Hall show of the year for Dragon Gate and it featured a debut no one saw coming.
Following the opening eight-man tag in which Ricochet won for the WARRIORS unit over Team Doi, Team Doi came out in full force to mock CIMA over how Team Doi out numbered the seemingly weakened WARRIORS.
Then out came Brodie Lee, the other American member of WARRIORS International.
Kzy foolishly challenged Lee to a match right then and there. A little over thirty seconds later, Lee hit the Truck Stop for his Dragon Gate debut win and a show of force that WARRIORS just got stronger with him on their side.
Ricochet and Brodie Lee showing up in Dragon Gate to close out the year illustrates how serious the DGUSA project is to Dragon Gate. In fact, there's word than many of the DGUSA talent will indeed be making a number of trips across the Pacific to bolster their presence as members of the Dragon Gate family. Chuck Taylor in Dragon Gate would be awesome, if you ask me.

In the wake of a murder-suicide, should there be a standard protocol on how to deal with their deaths? On one hand, the fact that someone has now died needs to be acknowledged but is it always proper to mourn or grieve that loss, especially when they are responsible for the death of another human being?
The recent murder-suicide of Kansas City Chief Jovan Belcher and Kasandra Perkins reminded me of the death of Chris Benoit and his family. As I watched the Belcher incident take form, I was amazed at the parallels between the Belcher and Benoit murder-suicide situations.
This article is not meant to give any answers, but rather to ask the question if either the NFL or the WWE did the right thing regarding either of these horrific incidents. Is there a difference between the deaths of a professional athlete and a professional wrestler that should make us react in a different way than the other? Should the number of victims have any factor? Does the way the killings occurred matter?
Simply, is there a right way to handle this situation or does each situation need to be addressed individually?
So I don't go back and forth, here are a few undeniable facts regarding both Benoit and Belcher.
1. Both men worked tirelessly to reach the upper echelons of their respected professions.
2. Both men made a living using their physicality.
3. Both incidents ended with both parents of their child dead.
4. With both men killing the mother of their children, by definition it makes both men murderers.
On November 30, 2012, both Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher and his girlfriend, Kasandra Perkins, were alive. Their child, three-month-old Zoey Belcher had a family. Cut to less than 24 hours later and Zoey is now an orphan.
In the aftermath of his death, one of the bigger questions surrounding the incident was not about the lives his death destroyed, but simply if the Chiefs next game against the Carolina Panthers would be delayed since the killings took place less than 48 hours before the Carolina game.
The fact that people only seemed concerned about delaying a meaningless game (both Kansas City and Carolina were already out of contention for this season's playoffs) and not how this tragedy affected the Belcher and Perkins families shocked me. I thought the right thing to do was to play the game as intended.
The question of if the Chiefs would postpone their game against the Panthers was short lived. Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel briefly spoke with his team captains. "I thought that was the best thing for us to do because that's what we do," Crennel said. "If for no other reason it takes our minds off our misery for a few hours. And that's what it did. It helped us do that."
The day Benoit and his family's death was announced, in June 2007, I was the web editor of the Santa Fe New Mexican newspaper, that night in charge of promoting the top stories. I first heard of Benoit's death on WWE's website simply stating that Chris, his wife Nancy and son Daniel were all found dead at their home in Georgia. Rather than carry on with the planned episode of Monday Night Raw, the WWE held a tribute to Benoit showcasing some of his most memorable matches.
However, as the hours went by, it became clearer that this was not a triple-murder, but rather that Benoit took the lives of his wife and son before taking his own. Vince McMahon appeared before the taping of ECW the next night, simply stating that "Tonight's show will be dedicated to everyone who has been affected by this terrible incident." McMahon further stated that this show would be the first step in the healing process. �
Since McMahon's video clip that night, the WWE's "healing process" includes doing everything in its power to distance itself from Chris Benoit. Benoit merchandise was taken off the WWE website, links to his profile were deleted and even the mention of his iron man-esque Royal Rumble win have been stricken from the WWE record books.
Like the WWE, the Kansas City Chiefs held a moment of silence, not for the Belcher and Perkins families, but for victims of domestic abuse. But unlike the WWE, the Chiefs, and more specifically the NFL, are not trying to erase Belcher from the record books. Belcher's jersey was prominently displayed in the area which was his locker before and after the game.
While Javon did have friends on the team, was it right to honor a killer? Is the only reason he is not referred to as a murderer because he was a professional athlete? Is that a good or bad thing?
Is there a reason that Belcher, for the time being, is not being ostracized for his actions? One of the questions I posed earlier in this article was about the number of victims immediately affected by this. Benoit's murder-suicide left three people dead while Belcher spared his daughter, leaving just him and his girlfriend dead.
Is it easier for the WWE to sweep Benoit under the rug because people still believe professional wrestling is fake? Does the NFL have to acknowledge Belcher because of the popularity of the sport? What about Kasandra? Will she only be remembered as a footnote in this tragedy? Will her death spark some research or charity devoted to making sure this never happens again? Is this the first incident in a long line of other ugly ones? Of course, what will happen to Zoey? Will she be able to one day deal with the truth of her parent's deaths?
I don't know if there is a right answer, but what I do know is both incidents need to be taken seriously to prevent similar ones from occurring in the future.
Matthew Asher is a freelance journalist living in Atlanta, GA and is hoping for some good discussion about this article. You can follow him on Twitter and like him on Facebook.

Daniel Radcliffe Mistakes Justin Bieber For A Woman
Daniel Radcliffe is very much ingrained in pop culture with his Harry Potter franchise but that doesn't mean he keeps up with everybody else in the entertainment industry.
"I'm so out of the loop when it comes to pop culture that I kind of don't even try anymore," the 21-year-old British actor tells MTV.
Daniel adds, "I only heard Justin Bieber for the first time two weeks ago. I genuinely thought it was a woman singing. I'd never heard it before. Is it big in England yet?"
"I [do] know who Lady Gaga is," he adds. "I think she's kind of amazing. She's really got a voice. My god. Not my kind of music, particularly, but she can really sing."

If you've just taken this course....
What were your expectations before you showed up?
I did not have many, if any expectations before arriving to the class. I only had target shooting experience and never thought twice about how my shot would be effected in defense mode. I am so glad my husband and I jumped at this opportunity.
Did I meet or exceed those expectations?
Our instructor James was great. His teaching methods are very effective and hands on. He believes in what works best for the individual. I will say I was a little nervous at first after browsing eagledef.com and James's info. I thought I was going to be yelled at by a military drill instructor, but glad to say it was the complete opposite.
What did you like about the course?
The environment was the best part for me. I felt no intimidation from James or my classmates.
How was the flow/format of the course?
The flow/format of the course was helpful. Starting further away from your target to warm up then working closer helped with confidence.
Were the topics explained well enough?
For what the class is based upon, James did a great job at instructing and demonstrating each topic covered. I would not recommend coming into the class with little to no experience with a firearm. That's when you would attend the first steps/ basic pistol class James offers.
How did you like the drills?
The drills are useful in a real life scenario and helpful in seeing strength/ improvement areas.
Did you find the topics/drills relevant to the course objective?
Yes and no less.
Was this worth the time and money?
Every penny and every second.
Would this be worth $120?
For the drills and enjoyment taken from this course, the $120 is well worth spent.
Anything else you'd like to add.
Waiting for Def Pistol Lv 2. dates.
Feedback for defensive 1 course: Exactly in the level and course that I expect for someone that has some range experience only, but wants to get into areas of learning that he can't from a regular range.
Was also hoping for a slightly longer lunch break so I can eat my sandwich.
Also waiting for a potential def pistol lvl 2 course.
This was a great class. learned many good things that will make me a better shooter and with practice working on the tips from James and this class will even get better. James was knowledgeable and experienced instructor he analyzes every time we shoot and recommend waht to do to improve. The class time and content was very satisfying as we started around 830 and was learning/shooting/what to do scenario all the time till 330. Loved the fact that this class was go go go all the time no BS time at all with quick breaks Will definitely try and take more training with James and definitely recommend this class to any one that is thinking about it.

Sorry about the late post, things have been crazy at work. These are my thoughts on the March 30th Defensive Pistol I course.
What were your expectations before you showed up?
I expected to learn techniques that would improve my chances of survival in a pistol shootout.
Did I meet or exceed those expectations?
Expectations definitely met.
What did you like about the course?
I liked that we had plenty of reps for each point of learning. You're not going to be proficient at anything without practice and we got plenty of that.
How was the flow/format of the course?
Flow was fine.
Were the topics explained well enough?
How did you like the drills?
They were fun, though I would have been a bit better at a few if I was in better physical condition!
Did you find the topics/drills relevant to the course objective?
Was this worth the time and money?
Well worth it.
Would this be worth $120?
The course I took would be a steal at $120.
Anything else you'd like to add.
As someone who only recently started carrying a gun for a living, the lessons I learned on that course may save my life someday. The techniques, the repetitions and the focus on fundamentals really brings home the realities of firefights and what you need to survive. I spent an entire morning and afternoon shooting, learning and enjoying myself and would gladly pay $120 or more for future training. Thanks to James for his time and effort!
I took the Def Pistol Lvl 1 offered by James at Eagle Def. I was in the March 28th class (sorry for the late review James). This was a great class; I look forward to doing more. I was expecting to fire off quite a few rounds kill a few sheets of paper. I did just that, the paper didnt stand a chance. The drills James had us run through were great. Initially James went through some quick safe handling practices, holstering, and drawing from holster. I dont recall the exact distances we started firing from but, we started off slow at a distance focusing on trigger control and grouping. We progressed closer and closer noticing grouping getting tighter and tighter. We performed the whole process again focusing on firing the shots off as quickly as possible while maintaining sufficient grouping on paper. We covered jams, emergency reloading, and tactical reloading, among many other skills. James recommended another way to place my support hand; it made a noticeable improvement on my shot placement. Being able to holster draw and rapid fire while maintaining your gun control really helps bolster your confidence. I go to the range as often as I can, but it does not compare to the application of how you would discharge your firearm in a real life stressful situation. A few of Jamess drills attempted to replicate some stresses you may encounter and pump up your adrenaline as well. You really notice the effects of breathing control on your shot placement, one drill in particular emphasized this. I really enjoyed the lesson, thanks again James. I look forward to taking more classes with Eagle Defense.

With the win, the Lady Bucs improve to 6-3 on the season, while the Redhawks drop below .500, at 5-6. The victory was also the sixth-straight home win for the Lady Bucs, who have won all four games in the Mini Dome this season.
Banjo's scoring performance is one of the best in school history, as the senior is currently tied for eighth in the Lady Bucs' single-game scoring archives. Her career output is also near the top of the entire NCAA, as her 39-point performance is the fourth-highest in the country this season, according to statistics through Dec. 19.
A full-court press by the Redhawks stifled the Lady Bucs' offense early on, as ETSU was held scoreless for nearly the first five minutes of play, until Banjo broke the ice with 15:38 remaining in the opening frame. The game was back-and-forth for the entire half, with seven lead changes and 10 ties. Down 29-26 with just over a minute remaining in the opener, the Lady Bucs would take the 31-29 lead with five-straight points by Banjo. However, a last-second layup by Rachel Blunt evened the score at 31 heading into the half.
The Lady Bucs' defense was also strong in the first period, as ETSU forced 11 Redhawk turnovers, and held SEMO's leading scorer, Tatiana Conceicao, to just three first-half points. Conceicao would erupt in the second half, however, ending the game with a team-best 21.
ETSU would wake up after the half, going on a 17-2 run to start the frame, extending the lead to 15 at 48-33, with just under 15 minutes remaining. The 15-point advantage would be the game's largest.
SEMO managed to tie the game once during the second half, and got within three, at 75-72, with just 1:53 left to play. The Lady Bucs answered the challenge, however, pulling away by nine in the next minute and a half, thanks to five free throws from Banjo, and one from Michele DeVault (
Banjo was the team leader in rebounds with seven, followed by Gibson and Akers with six apiece. Defensively, DeVault and Brooke Wilhoit (
The Redhawks were paced by Conceicao with 21, followed by Rachel Blunt with 16. Natalie Purcell pulled down seven rebounds, while Conceicao and Tiffanne Ryan managed five boards apiece.
The Lady Bucs are now off until the new year, when they head into their Atlantic Sun schedule with

Beyond enhancing campus social and cultural life, the new 56,000-sq.-ft. student center at Clarkson University showcases practical rewards of research conducted at the school's Center for Advanced Materials Processing (CAMP). There, a project to develop the structure's uniquely ÎgreenÌ building blocks was spearheaded by Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering Professor Narayanan Neithalath, an expert on cement-based materials and sustainable concrete. Substituting 20 percent of the most expensive and energy-intensive concrete ingredient Û portland cement Û with recycled industrial glass powder produced a mix for concrete block more economical, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly than traditional units. Plus, CAMP researchers assert, the block is stronger and more durable than CMU molded from conventional mixes.
Sparking development of the ÎgreenÌ blocks was a surplus of fine glass powder generated by Potters Industries, an international manufacturer of engineered beads made entirely from recycled glass. Its Potsdam, N.Y., plant was producing 8,000 tons of excess fine powder annually in the course of fabricating tiny pieces for high-tech applications ranging from reflective highway lane paint to hypodermic needles. Potters sought an efficient use for the byproduct, which resembles grayish-white baby powder in texture and appearance.
An innovative solution was developed through research at CAMP funded by the New York State Department of Economic Development Environmental Investment Program and the New York State Foundation for Science, Technology and Innovation. Initiated by Neithalath in June 2006 and concluded in December 2008, the project entailed extensive field tests at Potsdam-based Woodruff Block. After investigators confirmed test units' performance, the producer fabricated 7,500 blocks for the student center using Neithalath's mix design.
Working with two undergraduate and two graduate students, Neithalath conducted his research on use of the byproduct powder as a mix ingredient just a short walk from the site of the student center now pioneering his ÎgreenÌ concrete in walls and an elevator shaft constructed with block that looks and feels like its traditional counterparts. Highly anticipated were the environmental benefits of replacing a portion of the portland cement in concrete with glass powder, since the limestone-based binder is an essential constituent in the world's most widely used man-made material. Some 12 billion metric tons of concrete are produced annually Û equivalent to a cubic meter for every person worldwide, CAMP reports Û for construction of roads, bridges, buildings, and infrastructure. Replacing portland cement with powdered glass promotes sustainability by limiting carbon dioxide emissions, reducing energy consumption, and preserving mineral resources. Moreover, recycling an industrial byproduct offers additional ÎgreenÌ benefits.
Less predictable than the environmental merits of sourcing the Potters byproduct were the performance advantages of replacing some of the cement. Neithalath determined that the substitution improves concrete's mechanical properties. While researchers previously have blended other types of crushed or powdered glass with cement in concrete mixes, analysis or testing had never specifically targeted the introduction of industrial-bead manufacturing byproduct.
Glass powder is effective in concrete primarily because it is rich in silica, which can react with other cement components, e.g., calcium hydroxide, to increase the material's strength through hydration that leads to hardening. Such secondary binding compounds also reduce porosity and improve long-term durability. Therefore, you can eliminate some of the expensive and energy-intensive portland cement without losing any of its important properties, affirms Neithalath. In fact, you make the concrete better.
However, he observes, proportioning is critical. Excessive amounts of glass can make concrete weaker, because it lacks sufficient calcium compounds to generate strength. Also, glass has lots of alkalis, which in excess might lead to chemical reactions that can compromise long-term performance.

wow, that's a lot of gooey cheese!what kind did you use and how much?
Excellent looking pizza skunker! Any leftovers?
I actually have the whole pizza (minus a slice) left over because I made it for my brother to take back to his apartment. Tomorow, I make one for my dad to take back to my mom. Depending on amount of left over ingredients, I will try to squeeze out one more final pizza for myself and that is all for a while! I enjoyed the pizza making experience have hooked several of my co-workers on the pizza making experience. I work in a military office and have several young junior airmen showing me their iPhone photos of the various pizzas they made over the weekend. It brings the office together. Thanks all,
I got to make one more pizza...sister is here in town.I plan to use uncooked bratwurst sausage this time (Johnsonville). I don't have a pizza stone. I plan to cook the pizza at about 430-450degrees for about 30mins or so. Should I pre-cook the sausage or just place it on raw on the cheese in as thin a manhole cover as possible? Concerned about a soggy pizza.....thanks.And BTB, I used polly-o for the cheese anad 6n1 for the sauce (with diced from Glen Muir).
I am going to try you recipe. Your pizza looks great. How do you get the pie out of the pan in one piece?
This is just to further illustrate what I mean about the pizza being "full" of ingredients above. The picture below is from Malnati's website. Note especially how tall the edge or rim is over the contents of the ingredients in the middle of the pizza. I think Skunker's example was overly "full" of whatever contents there were, . . . or the edge of the crust wasn't pushed up high enough . . . or the pan was not a very high one. Suggest a traditional 2" deep pan. Just a thought as we're all looking for getting the best out of our pizzamaking, right? --BTB Add -- the pizza crusts served at Malnati's great restaurants are usually always darker or browner than those illustrated on their websites and marketing literature. I guess the lighter crust color is presumed to be better for marketing purposes, but I assure you that a little browner coloring is most highly desired.
I have to respectfully disagree with you on this BTB. I have gone through stretches where I've eaten Malnati's every week for months and the crust is never that dark. It's almost always light in color like the pictures on their site. It's usually on the light side.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - For the first time since the outdoor season started at the end of March, the MIT men's track and field team are nationally ranked, as announced by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) on Wednesday afternoon. The Engineers, who were ranked 26th in last week's poll, slid into the final position in the top 25 after their performances this past weekend.
At the New England Outdoor Championships at Stonehill College last weekend, MIT finished in eighth place out of 36 teams with 36.50 points. Of the two MIT school records that fell over the course of the two day meet, freshman Michael Kaba (Jackson, N.J.) was part of both of them. First, he qualified for the finals of the 400m Hurdles with his third-place finishing 53.50, coming in second place that night with a 52.20, breaking both the freshman and varsity record.
The second record to fall was in the 4x400 relay that placed second with a time of 3:12.42. The relay that was composed of freshmen States Lee (Charlotte, N.C.) and Derek Barnes (Coto De Caza, Calif.), Kaba and junior Tyler Singer-Clark (Falmouth, Mass.) broke the MIT varsity record of 3:12.70.
The 4x100 relay also fared well, finishing in second place with a 41.93, just two one-hundredths of a second off what they ran at the New England Division III Championships last week. This relay was composed of junior Michael DuPlessis (Wantagh, N.Y.), Kaba, senior Josh Duncavage (Austin, Texas) and Singer-Clark.
A handful of Engineers will travel to Springfield College for the ECAC Division III Championships on Thursday and Friday, May 16-17. Those going will be trying to improve their times in hopes of making it to the 2013 NCAA Division III Championships that will be held at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse from May 23-25.
