Cuban Boxing Legend Félix Savón and Little Jorge's Beginning
Félix Savón might not be the first name that comes to mind when one thinks of Cuba, but the 6'5" amateur heavyweight boxer dominated the boxing scene during the 80s and 90s. His rise to stardom began in 1985 when he won the Junior World Championship in Bucharest, Romania, and culminated in his third Olympic Gold Medal at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia.
During the height of his career Félix Savón won three consecutive Olympic Gold Medals in heavyweight boxing in 1992, 1996, and 2000, six consecutive Gold titles at the World Amateur Boxing Championships, and also carried the prominent title of Cuban National Champion from 1985 until 1998.
And yet, while many people have admired Félix Savón for his boxing skills, few individuals actually realise what a gentle soul he is. During my time in Cuba, I had a chance encounter with Félix while following Jorge, a 4-year-old little boy who was fighting at training with the other kids in an outdoor ring in central Havana. But more on Jorge later on.
Félix walked in with a smile, joking with all those present at the ring. This smart and elegant man gives off many impressions, but certainly not that he is an amateur heavyweight boxing champion. I had the privilege to be invited to Félix's family home the following day, which he shared with his wife and five children.
Upon entering his welcoming home, it feels a bit like a boxing museum. The walls and furniture is decorated with an assortment of competitive gold medals, boxing gear, and images from the past. Félix has also taken to painting after his retirement, and many of his artworks can be observed on the walls of his home.
Spending time with Félix was a wonderful experience, as his reflective and calm demeanour perfectly reflects his character and morals. Apart from being popular for his performance on the ring, Félix Savón is also well-known for rejecting several multi-million dollar offers to leave Cuba and fight against Mike Tyson as a professional boxer.
Instead, he stayed loyal to the Cuban revolution, which outlawed professional sports, mimicking the steps of another Cuban boxing great Teofilo Stevenson, who said "I prefer the affection of eight million Cubans".
And this brings us to Jorge, the timid but strong willed 4-year-old boy who dreams of one day also competing in boxing. It is very hard to miss his creative and playful boxing style when observing him fighting against the other children.
There is really no telling what the future has in store for Jorge, but his warm and stable family life is surely a positive sign of things to come.

Guitar icon's first post-bankruptcy line signals a simpler, back-to-basics approach.
Gibson has unveiled its long-anticipated 2019 model line, the company's first since it filed for bankruptcy back in May.
Featuring a number of new models and variations, the iconic guitar maker's 2019 line reflects a leaner, back-to-basics approach to the company's catalog of instruments.
Though there's quite a bit to unpack here, we've included the highlights of Gibson's 2019 line of guitars below.
For 2019, Gibson will be producing two new thinline models, the ES-235 and ES-275T (pictured above.) Built at the company's Memphis plant, the two new models will both include a maple centerblock and spruce bracing. Starting at $1,399 for the base model, the ES-235 will be the least expensive ES-series guitar in the Gibson catalog, and is inspired by classic Fifties models like the ES-125. The ES-275T, on the other hand, features a rounder cutaway, similar to that of a Fifties Byrdland or an ES-5.
Gibson is also reintroducing the ES studio series, which includes the ES-235 Studio, ES-339 Studio and the ES-335 Studio models. The company also announced that the price of the standard production ES-335 will be reduced.
For 2019, Gibson will be adding B-2 options to its Explorer and Flying V models. These B-2 guitars feature satin finishes and Dirty Fingers+ pickups, with slightly lower prices than their regular counterparts. The company is also adding a few new options, including some new finishes, to its Firebird model.
Gibson has also streamlined its Les Paul and SG series, cutting down on available finishes and options. The Les Paul Studio Tribute, Studio, Classic, Standard, Traditional and High Performance models will all still be available, while the SG line will include the Tribute, Standard, '61 Reissue and High Performance models.
Notably, Gibson did introduce one new Les Paul model—the Les Paul Junior Doublecut—that's been generating a decent amount of buzz on the ol' interwebs. The pretty new guitar (pictured above) will be available for $799.
On the acoustic side, Gibson is launching a new Studio Series, which will offer classic Gibson acoustic designs at more affordable prices. The Studio models will feature walnut back and sides with spruce tops and will come in L-00, J-45, Hummingbird and SJ-200 variations. Notably, the J-45 Studio model will be available for $1,499, the lowest price for a J-45 in decades. Each Studio model features an L.R. Baggs VTC pickup system and a slightly thinner body depth than their higher-end equivalents in the Standard, Vintage and Deluxe series. Like all Montana-made Gibsons, the Studio line will be built with hide glue construction, a dovetail neck joint and a nitrocellulose finish.
The company also launched its new Sustainable Series, which uses a unique and environmentally friendly beeswax-based finish, and will also include L-00, J-45 and Hummingbird models. Like the Studio line, these guitars will be built using walnut as the primary tonewood.
These selections are merely highlights of the 2019 Gibson line. You can learn more about the full lineup of guitars over at gibson.com.

Samurai Flamenco Episode 22 [END]
March 28, 2014 Reviews, Samurai Flamencobeatslars
After the wild genre shifts since the anime began last October, this series comes to a close this week, and what an ending! Or was it? This episode continues where we left off last week! Goto chained in Masayoshi's apartment at the hands of psychotic middle-schooler Sawada Haiji.
The focus for the first half of the episode was fantastic as we learned how Goto dealt with the disappearance of his girlfriend. This series has always done a great job with brushing out their characters and it was nice to see that development with his family. The previous episodes have so much more of an impact on Goto's character through the viewer knowing that he's been pretending to be his honest self through another text message. Looking at, it is pretty sad that Goto has gone on this long pretending to be courageous and justified. Different to see that character mold broken down. I really thought Goto was a strong guide for Hazama, yet his admiration to make his girlfriend live on was really depressing. Really something you do not see in anime very often! His breakdown when his Mom lit the phone up was breathtaking, which in turn made Goto's situation much much worse. The background through out this past sequence was crafted perfectly! I couldn't have asked for more of a better backstory for this character.
There is only one question I do have for this episode. What happened? This first half was as brilliant as the first half of the series, yet when Hazama entered the picture and decided not to become Samurai Flamenco against Haiji, left me perplexed. We had been building up to the grand finale, and Masayoshi had begun questioning his own existence, his level of craziness so to speak. That was shot out of the water here! It was like the writers did not really have a concrete plan to bringing Sawada's character to a close. It DID however fully come full circle with its deconstruction of a superhero genre, which was great!
The MMM girls went back to being idols and Flamenco girls by night. [It would be great to see a series just on these girls, they were wonderful every scene they were in!] I loved this episode for its moments with Goto, and its delivery on character development, but I cannot agree with where the writers went with the story on Sawada. His family chose NOT to disclose that he really was alive?! How does that make any sense at all. It doesn't and that is one thing this series did well in. Being nonsensical, with plenty of questions left over for the viewer. Speaking of the characters, I was pleased with Goto's development and Mineral Miracle Muse, and that was about it. Everything went back the way it was, Goto a cop, Hazama a model and the original Samurai Flamenco. I am even wondering why the series focused on Masayoshi so much when it should have left Goto in charge of lead character. It is a shame there won't be a 23rd episode to answer all these questions, why monsters, why aliens, why did Masayoshi's grandfather give him that power, was it all just one beautiful lie? I guess it wasn't….

Q: how to show div overlay in place clicked, not at top of the screen in html I have the following css and js:

I have the following HTML:

         Click button
        Click here to show the overlay

The problem is that when I click this, the page scrolls back to the top and shows the the dialog.
I would like the overlay to show right in place.  How can I achieve this?

A: Use position fixed and use percentage to show it:
#overlay {
     visibility: hidden;
     position: fixed;
     left: 0px;
     top: 0px;
     width:100%;
     height:100%;
     text-align:center;
     z-index: 1000;
}

And as per the scrolling, you can return false in your function:
function overlay() {
    el = document.getElementById("overlay");
    el.style.visibility = (el.style.visibility == "visible") ? "hidden" : "visible";
    return false;
}

U.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is proud to introduce the Ruger Precision Rimfire rifle. Bringing the big-gun experience to the rimfire world, the Ruger Precision Rimfire is a scaled-down version of the Ruger Precision Rifle and maintains the same ergonomics, trigger and manual of arms as the larger centerfire rifle. The Ruger Precision Rimfire is the ideal long-range shooting trainer and go-to rifle for your next rimfire match.
The Ruger Precision Rimfire features a molded, one-piece chassis and adjustable buttstock assembly manufactured from glass-filled nylon for strength, stiffness and stability, offering a solid foundation for accuracy each and every shot. The innovative Quick-Fit adjustable Precision Rimfire stock allows the rifle's length of pull and comb height to be quickly and easily adjusted for proper fit over a wide range of shooter sizes, outerwear and shooting positions. Indicating marks molded into the chassis help you quickly return to a previous position.
To make the .22 LR chambering feel more like 6.5 Creedmoor, Ruger engineers designed the Big-Gun adjustable bolt throw technology. By simply removing a spring clip, shooters can change from a rimfire 1-1/2" bolt throw to a short-action centerfire 3" bolt throw, reducing the chance of short-stroking the bolt in competition. Identical to the Ruger Precision Rifle, the oversized bolt handle makes for positive bolt manipulation.
By simply removing a spring clip, shooters can change from a rimfire 1-1/2" bolt throw to a short-action centerfire 3" bolt throw, reducing the chance of short-stroking the bolt in competition.
The rifle's 18" target barrel is cold hammer-forged from 4140 alloy steel to create ultra-precise rifling for excellent accuracy. The ½"-28 thread pattern allows for easy pairing with the Silent-SR suppressor or other muzzle devices. The 15" hard black anodized aluminum, free-float handguard features Magpul M-LOK slots on all four sides for improved scope clearance and easy mounting of M-LOK-compatible rails and accessories.
The popular Ruger Marksman Adjustable trigger has a pull weight range of 2.25 to 5.0 pounds; the adjusting wrench is conveniently stored in a buttstock compartment on the rifle. Ruger's own AR-pattern pistol grip and safety selector allow for maximum control and access to the 45 degree, reversible safety selector.
The Precision Rimfire ships with one, 15-round BX-15 magazine or two, 10-round BX-1 magazines. For increased long-range elevation capabilities, the rifle is topped with a 30 MOA Picatinny scope base.

Угонщик — второй пилот, 33-летний Шамиль Гаджи-Оглы Алимурадов (род. 15 декабря 1952 года), был позже приговорён китайским судом  тюремного заключения, но в 1989 году экстрадирован в СССР, где в 1990 году был осуждён  тюрьмы.

Самолёт
Ан-24Б с заводским номером 17307407 и серийным 074-07 был выпущен Киевским авиационным заводом 24 декабря 1971 года и передан Министерству гражданской авиации. Авиалайнер получил регистрационный номер CCCP-47845 (в некоторых источниках ошибочно указан номер 42845) и направлен в Якутское управление гражданской авиации, где с 25 января 1972 года начал эксплуатироваться.

Командиром экипажа был 36-летний пилот 2-го класса Вячеслав Сергеевич Абрамян. Выпускник Сасовского лётного училища, он был квалифицирован на командира Ан-2 и Ан-24, а также имел опыт работы в сельхозавиации. Вторым пилотом был 33-летний Шамиль Гаджи-Оглы Алимурадов. Вместе пилоты работали уже два месяца. Кроме них в состав экипажа входили штурман, бортмеханик и стюардесса.

Угон
19 декабря 1985 года самолёт выполнял пассажирский рейс 101/435 по маршруту Якутск — Нерюнгри — Чита — Иркутск. На его борту находились 5 членов экипажа и 46 пассажиров (в некоторых источниках число пассажиров 38 или 44). На подходе к Чите штурман отлучился из кабины в туалет. Следом в салон вышел второй пилот Алимурадов, который вскоре вернулся в кабину и сообщил, что стюардессе требуется помощь бортмеханика. Когда бортмеханик вышел в салон, оставив пилотов в кабине одних, Алимурадов запер дверь кабины на внутренний замок, после чего достал пронесённый на борт самодельный нож и приставил его к горлу командира Абрамяна, потребовав лететь на юг в сторону Китая. С помощью специальной кнопки командир оповестил диспетчера о захвате воздушного судна, после чего попытался приземлиться на военном аэродроме. Однако опытный второй пилот быстро распознал манёвр и заставил командира корабля придерживаться нужного курса, а также через дверь предупредил бортмеханика со штурманом, чтобы те прекратили попытки проникнуть в кабину.

При подходе к советско-китайской границе командир связался с диспетчером и сообщил о ситуации, на что получил данные по настройке радиокомпаса на ближайший доступный китайский аэропорт — Цицикар. Вскоре советский авиалайнер оказался над китайской территорией. Китайские пограничные войска не стали поднимать истребители для его перехвата, но вскоре стрелка радиокомпаса несколько раз изменяла направление. По версии Абрамяна, китайские власти намеренно начали сбивать самолёт с курса и водить его по кругу в горном районе, дабы он выработал топливо и потерпел крушение. Поняв, что достичь аэропорта невозможно, пилот выбрал для аварийной посадки одно из рисовых полей. Примерно в 14:30 (по местному времени) Ан-24 приземлился в районе Ганьнаня в провинции Хэйлунцзян на северо-востоке Китая. Никто из людей на борту не пострадал, а самолёт получил лишь небольшие повреждения.

Последствия
К 20:00 к месту посадки самолёта прибыли сотрудники местных правоохранительных органов, которые выставили вокруг самолёта охрану. После переговоров угонщика Алимурадова забрали в Харбин для допроса, а остававшимся в самолёте пассажирам и экипажу была выдана тёплая одежда (температура воздуха опускалась до −25 °C). После прибытия уполномоченного представителя СССР и спустя 29 часов после посадки пассажиры и экипаж были доставлены на автомобилях в Цицикар, а 21 декабря в Харбин, откуда спецрейсом на Ту-134 в Читу.

По результатам допроса Алимурадова были установлены мотивы, побудившие его пойти на преступление. Шамиль был обижен на своё руководство за отсутствие продвижения по службе — его не повышали до звания командира экипажа. Он писал на этот счёт многочисленные жалобы в вышестоящие инстанции, но в итоге его 5 раз направляли на обследование к невропатологу и даже кратковременно отстраняли от полётов. 4 марта 1986 года в Харбине состоялся суд, который в соответствии с местным законодательством приговорил Шамиля Алимурадова  тюремного заключения. 19 марта 1988 года Алимурадов был условно-досрочно освобожден. Ему удалось устроиться преподавателем русского языка в Харбинский мединститут, затем он преподавал в педагогическом училище и институте иностранных языков в городе Цзямусы на границе с Хабаровским краем. В 1989 году он был экстрадирован в Советский Союз, а 21 июня 1990 года в Якутске уже советский суд осудил угонщика на 5 лет. Сразу после того, как Алимурадов вышел из российской тюрьмы, он женился (его первая жена погибла в автокатастрофе, когда он был в Китае), по состоянию на 2004 год проживал в Москве.

Командир экипажа Вячеслав Абрамян был уволен из авиаотряда. Спустя два года он смог вернуться в профессию. Карьеру лётчика завершил в 1998 году в звании пилота 1-го класса. По данным на 2010 год работал в авиакомпании «Якутия» заместителем генпредставителя в Москве.

Угнанный Ан-24 в январе 1986 года был перегнан в Читу. По другим данным, самолёт был доставлен железнодорожным транспортом в Борзю. После ремонта авиалайнер продолжил эксплуатироваться в Якутском  УГА, а с 1993 года в образованной на базе данного УГА авиакомпании «ЯкутАвиаТранс», бортовой номер при этом сменился на RA-47845. В 2000 году лайнер был поставлен на хранение в Якутском аэропорту. По имеющимся данным, к тому времени самолёт совершил в общей сложности  полётов суммарной продолжительностью  часов. В 2009 году борт 47845 был разрезан на металлолом.

Faculty members on regular appointments who are principal or co-principal investigators and whose base salaries are supported by E&G funds may qualify and may be approved for an annual one-time research incentive payment. Faculty members with primary appointments in a research institute are not expected to participate.
The faculty member qualifies for a salary payment when (a) more than 10% of the faculty member's E&G-funded salary has been charged to a competitively awarded sponsored grant or contract during the prior fiscal year, and (b) when the faculty member's assignments have not changed. Salary recovered due to a teaching buy-out or relief from service or other assignments is not included in the FRIP.
Departments with existing salary recovery plans will work with the Office of the Vice President for Research and Innovation to integrate the existing plan with the FRIP.
Research incentive payments must be approved by the department head or chair, the dean, and the provost (or the appropriate administrators based on reporting structure); all disapprovals must also be reviewed by each management level.
The research incentive payment is a one-time annual supplement to the recipient's regular annual compensation. It is not included in the retirement base salary. The incentive payment is subject to the applicable federal and state taxes and FICA withholdings. The incentive payment does not affect a recipient's eligibility for merit or other salary increases. Sponsored research funds cannot be used for research incentive payments; only university funds may be used for this payment.
The FRIP will be evaluated annually to determine whether to renew, modify, or discontinue the plan.
Questions? See contact information at the bottom of this page.
A faculty member must indicate his/her participation in the FRIP during the first two months of the fiscal year by completing the Intention to Participate in the Faculty Research Incentive Plan form and submitting it to the appropriate department head/chair or director by the deadline established on the Intention to Participate in the Faculty Research Incentive Plan form.
Departmental administrators will prepare documentation of the recovered salary savings and initiation of the salary recovery payment within 90 days of the end of the fiscal year using a standard form.
PIs and Co-PIs are responsible for timely salary charges to their eligible grants and contracts. Charges posted later than 90 days after the end of the fiscal year will not be considered. Likewise, all salary charges considered in the calculation of the incentive payment must have been previously certified through the PARS process.
Only externally funded, competitively awarded grants and contracts qualify for this compensation program. Noncompetitive grants and contracts (e.g., earmarks) do not qualify for the program. The Vice President for Research and Innovation has the final authority to determine which grants or contracts are eligible for inclusion in the program.
The amount of salary support recovered from the grant or contract should match faculty effort. Salary recovery charges to an external grant or contract may not exceed actual effort expended.
Under no circumstances are salary recovery payments charged directly to an extramural grant or included in the faculty member's academic base salary that is represented in the proposal. The research incentive payments are paid from released E&G salary savings when faculty effort has been charged to the grant.
The faculty member must fund 10% of the AY salary on competitively awarded grants and/or contracts to be eligible for the FRIP.
The faculty member may fund additional AY research time/effort on grants and/or contracts, thus releasing E&G salary that had been supporting unfunded research time/effort.
The research incentive payment equals 50% of the E&G salary recovered based on the percentage of salary funded on grants/contracts above the 10%. Recovered E&G salary that is associated with a reduction in responsibilities (e.g., teaching, administrative service) is excluded from the research incentive calculation.
The department/college retains the 10% salary recovered, along with 50% of the additional salary recovered.
AY faculty members may fund additional research time/effort on grants and contracts during the summer, following current university rules and regulations.
A faculty member on a CY appointment who has all or part of the CY salary funded by E&G funds may also participate in the FRIP.
The faculty member must fund 10% of the CY salary on competitively awarded grants and/or contracts to be eligible for the FRIP.
The faculty member may fund additional CY research time/effort on grants and/or contracts, thus releasing E&G salary that had been supporting unfunded research time/effort.
A faculty member on an RCY appointment, whether it is a 10-, 11-, or 12-month research extended appointment, must be in compliance with Policy 6200 to participate in the FRIP.
The faculty member must fund the required percentages associated with the conversion (i.e., 10-month = 11%, 11-month = 22%, 12-month = 33%) and distribute the funding to remain in contract compliance.
The faculty member must fund an additional 10% beyond the conversion percentage to be eligible for the FRIP.
The faculty member on an RCY appointment can participate only to the extent that E&G funds are recovered.

Federal Court Upholds Florida's Gay Adoption Ban
A federal judge ruled yesterday that Florida's law banning homosexuals from adopting children is valid, saying the state has a legitimate interest in allowing only married couples to adopt.
The law is considered the nation's toughest ban on gay adoptions, prohibiting adoptions by any gay or lesbian individual or couple. Mississippi and Utah also ban adoptions by same-sex couples.
U.S. Judge James Lawrence King accepted the state's argument that the law was in children's best interests because married heterosexuals provide children with a more stable home. "Plaintiffs have not asserted that they can demonstrate that homosexual families are equivalently stable, are able to provide proper gender identification or are no more socially stigmatizing than married heterosexual families," said King, senior judge for the Miami-based U.S. Southern District of Florida.
Steven Lofton and Douglas Houghton filed the lawsuit after being told they could not legally adopt children already in their care. Lofton, a foster parent, wanted to adopt a 10-year-old boy he has raised since infancy. Houghton is the guardian of a 9-year-old boy.
The men challenged Florida's adoption laws, arguing that they discriminate against gays. King, however, said in his ruling that "given there is no fundamental right to adopt or be adopted, there can be no fundamental right to apply for adoption."
The judge did discount Florida's argument that the law is legitimate because it reflects the state's disapproval of homosexuality. "The court cannot accept that moral disapproval of homosexuals or homosexuality serves a legitimate state interest," he wrote.

I have a put up an initial hit parade of irritating software based on the first 100 repsonses (a more in-depth analysis of all results to be published shortly).
In first place, perhaps unsurprisingly, are antivirus programs. I've used practically every major antivirus program on the market, and have found every single one to be completely infuriating. Whether it's popping up irritating paranoic messages every few milliseconds, making it difficult to access certain web sites properly or slowing down your eight-core CPU to the speed of a ZX Spectrum on tranquilizers, every single antivirus product appears to be designed to make you want to throw your PC off a very high balcony.
I was somewhat reassured to find iTunes in second place. Especially under Windows, I have also personally found it to be one of the most buggy and infuriating pieces of software ever written. But whether it's freezing every five seconds, launching into a lengthy "sync" process just because I accidentally wanted to upload an extra song or thinking at random intervals that my iPhone has mysteriously transformed into a new one never seen before in the history of humanity, I now feel less alone in the universe knowing that other users share my view.


Man, it hit 81 degree here yesterday. So I guess winter really is over. Time to get out there! But first, a collection of links for the Weekly Stoke!
Got a spring marathon or half coming up? Here is a good list of common mistakes to avoid, as well as solutions.
Speaking of things to be careful about, this post has links from bloggers who describe some of their more notable errors they made in the outdoors, and what they learned from it.
There has been a spate of BASE jumping deaths in the desert towers of Utah.
The Adventure Journal posted this op-ed about plans to build a theme park at the Grand Canyon, and I have to agree.
And finally, there is this piece about a conversation with big mountain skier Chris Davenport.
A Vancouver couple ditched their downtown condo in favor of a pickup with a campertop and put their life on the road. Here are some of their thoughts on why they did it and what they've experienced.
Ultramarathoner and blogger Ashley Walsh takes on the issue of health benefits that come with ultra-length races and training. You might be surprised by her take.
Speaking of ultra training and health, these runners give you some of their tips for recovery.
Alta ski resort in Utah is getting sued by snowboarders who are contesting its skiers-only policy.
Brendan Leonard creates a chart on how to appeal to girls at the climbing gym.
And finally, some information about how being outside in a natural setting trumps being outside in more man-made places.
Hopefully everyone is out of the deep freeze and is avoiding the bug that's been going around. I'm one-for-two on that count, but on the mend. Anyway, Here's a good collection of links I think you'll find interesting from the world of the outdoors. Let's get on with the Weekly Stoke!
North Korea's construction of a ski resort is more than just an attempt to boost tourism, though I have to wonder how much demand there is for North Korean powder. It may be a middle finger directed toward European and other ski lift manufacturers who refused to help build the site, this post posits.
What's the coldest marathon you've ever run? Probably not as cold as this guy's. Hint: It was run in Russia.
The survivor of a plane crash in Hawaii managed to record the entire event, and part of that includes what is probably going to be the selfie of the year.
And finally, we go back to the slopes where a rich Texas ski tourist says he'll take his business elsewhere is he sees or hears too much "pot" stuff at Colorado ski resorts. Note to rich Texan ski guy: I don't think you'll be missed.
Are you having Achilles pain? Could be a case of your glutes not doing their job.
What's the best running surface? The answer in this link might surprise you.
I love this idea. Via the Adventure Journal, a couple is exploring the most remote places in each of the nation's 50 states.
Brendan Leonard takes a look back at one of the great films of the '90s, "Fight Club," and what it means to him 14 years after its release.
This is a couple of weeks old, but it's awesome: a photo gallery of finish line moments from the Twin Cities Marathon in Minneapolis. Pure web gold here, folks.
Finally, check out this video. It takes a awhile to get going, but when it's done you'll be glad you're not this guy.
A whole lot of ground to cover this week, so let's not waste time. Enter the Weekly Stoke!
Some sobering news again this week from the high country as an Ohio man goes missing somewhere near Colorado's Mount Harvard. This, plus another search (sorry, don't have a link on that one) further south in the Sangre de Cristo range. Both involved solo hikers. Having just done a solo, the weight of these stories is not lost on me.
Climate change deniers are making some noise about a report showing growth in polar ice, but a recent study shows that the reasons behind Antarctic ice shelf growth is not the result in a leveling off of warming temperatures. That, and the arctic ice pack is still shrinking.
This report reveals how Americans prefer their exercise: Solo and brief.
Here are some tips to get you ready for the upcoming ski season.
And just for fun, who doesn't like a video of Alex Honnold doing what he does best? Have a look.
Here's a really interesting photo gallery of 20 terrifying hikes.
There is a lawsuit over an ice climbing accident that could have major ramifications on businesses specializing in guiding climbs and other outdoor adventures. Via Outside magazine.
This blogger has a really cool post featuring behind-the-scenes photo from this summer's Leadville 100 trail race. Excellent, candid photos.
The treadmill is a go-to tool for a lot of runners, or a standby backup when the weather does not cooperate. But this article explains how the physics of treadmill running differs greatly from outdoor running, and the side effects aren't the best.
And finally, a really cool movie trailer to get you stoked for ski season. Enjoy it, and have an awesome weekend!


I was really excited to read this after reading Trouble is a Friend of Mine last week and really liking it. Nancy Drew with drug circles and razor blades. It was intense and the relationship between Digby and our main girl, Zoe, was what really drew me to the story. The sequel, I'm sad to say, didn't live up to the hype I was creating for myself (silly, silly me) but the strengths of the first book, like the quick witted dialogue, continued throughout, making it still an enjoyable read, but not the jam packed sequel I was hoping for.
For the first book, Digby had gone to Texas, and Zoe had found a new boyfriend Miles. At the start of the sequel, Digby's back in town and it super complicated the relationship Zoe's had for a few months. I'd definitely say that, for me, the emphasis of this book was more about character relationships than the mystery. While that still played a role, it wasn't grabbing my attention as much as the band of misfits, who have got to know each other a lot better in between books.
It's Love Triangle Time! Come on, roll your eyes, who she picks is no surprise.
Seriously, when it comes to picking between the most interesting guy in town and the average football star, who are you going to choose? There's so much history between Digby and Zoe, so I was obviously bias on one side of the relationship. I saw someone using gifs on Goodreads of Amy, Rory and the 11th Doctor, and I think that dynamic is so apt. Digby definitely has something of Matt Smith about his mannerisms.
Yeah, how can you not love him, really? The tension between the two is so great, I started to feel sorry for Miles for getting in the middle of something he didn't realise was so magnetic!
I'm pleased that a rational decision was made, but I don't think the relationship between Sloane and Henry is a little toxic, so…hopefully that'll get sorted through in the next book.
The same level of fun and outlandish shenanigans happened that I've grown to expect from this gang, but for some reason, I wasn't into as much…too high school, not enough high stakes! I'm still looking forward to the sequel, and fingers crossed this is only a trilogy so we can get the mystery solved once and for all!

Volkswagen embraces TCR Australia
News TCR by Michael Stratus
TCR Australia has welcomed the arrival of its third vehicle brand ahead of its inaugural season in 2019, with the Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR recently landing down under.
The German manufactured car has now joined a Audi R3 at the official agent for all Volkswagen Group Motorsport TCR cars, the Melbourne Performance Centre.
In the Melbourne Performance Centre's newest arrival comes a hugely successful car within the category's market, with the Golf winning the 'Model Car of the Year' award during the 2017 TCR International Series.
Melbourne Performance Centre's Managing Director, Lee Burley was excited with the car's arrival, allowing them to continue preparation for 2019.
"Seeing the car in the flesh is really exciting," Burley said.
"We know what the cars are about, having had the Audi RS 3 TCR here for a while, and we know that car well and this is a sister car from the Volkswagen Group.
"It's the same platform, it's really just body panels and the badge on the front.
"There has been great interest since its announcement, but nothing beats having a car in the workshop that people and come and look at.
"We're looking forward to the first customer coming along, put their hand up and take this one onto the track."
Both Melbourne Performance Centre's cars make up part of the first set of the series' confirmed cars, with a Honda Civic Type R also making its way from Italy to join the TCR ranks earlier this month.
With more cars arriving in Australia to join the series' growing cavalry of competing cars, Matt Braid, Director of the series' promoter, Australian Racing Group, was thrilled with the Golf GTI's confirmation in the series.
"It's great to see another car arrive in Australia. You can feel the momentum starting to build and it's very exciting," Braid said.
"Volkswagen Group Motorsport is very committed to TCR global, and VW brand is going to be really good for the series.
"VW doesn't have a huge racing pedigree in Australia, however, it is such a famous brand with so much history, both on the road and race track. The Golf will certainly attract its own set of followers, so we're really looking forward to seeing it on track."
TCR Australia has yet to announce next year's calendar, but has confirmed their rounds will be part of the Shannons Nationals and Supercars events in 2019.

Here are some interesting Detroit Stories for the fans of rock and roll trivia and for those who believe that nothing happens by chance (especially in Detroit).
In 1971, the Alice Cooper Group was working in Detroit, with producer Bob Ezrin.
Around the same time, also in Detroit, a band called… Detroit, which featured Mitch Ryder, Johnny Bee and Steve Hunter, recorded a heavy new arrangement of Lou Reed's "Rock & Roll" also produced by… Bob Ezrin.
It was when he heard that version that Lou Reed decided to work with Ezrin on the follow-up to his monster hit album "Transformer." Their collaboration produced the seminal and fascinating classic album "Berlin."
But wait, there is more!
Steve Hunter, the amazing guitar player who created the iconic main riff that drives Detroit´s cover of the song in 1971, ended up working with Ezrin on many of his productions. He toured and recorded with Alice and with Lou Reed as well…and that same riff is the backbone of this new recording of the song which was done in…Detroit, of course.
Alice Cooper and Lou Reed shared a relationship of mutual respect and friendship over the years. Bob and Lou collaborated several other times and were dear friends for 40 years.
Alice and Bob can't remember how many albums this is and have been creative partners for 50 years. Alice's powerful new version of Lou Reed's "Rock & Roll" features Johnny "Bee" Badanjek (Detroit Wheels), Steve Hunter (Detroit), Paul Randolph (legendary Detroit jazz and R&B bassist) and special guests Joe Bonamassa and Tommy Henriksen (for this occasion, crowned "Honorary Detroiters")
"Detroit Stories," Alice's upcoming new album, is a celebration of the sound and spirit of the Golden Era of Detroit rock.
"Detroit was Heavy Rock central then," explains Alice, "You'd play the Eastown and it would be Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent, the Stooges and the Who, for $4! The next weekend at the Grande it was MC5, Brownsville Station and Fleetwood Mac, or Savoy Brown or the Small Faces. You couldn't be a soft-rock band or you'd get your ass kicked."
"Los Angeles had its sound with The Doors, Love and Buffalo Springfield," he says, "San Francisco had the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane. New York had The Rascals and The Velvet Underground. But Detroit was the birthplace of angry hard rock. After not fitting in anywhere in the US (musically or image wise) Detroit was the only place that recognized the Alice Cooper guitar driven, hard rock sound and our crazy stage show. Detroit was a haven for the outcasts. And when they found out I was born in East Detroit… we were home."
50 years later, Alice and Ezrin have united in Detroit with their Detroit friends to record "Detroit Stories," Cooper's new album.
If 2019's "Breadcrumbs" EP laid down the trail to the city, "Detroit Stories" drives like a muscle car right down Woodward Ave.
Discover Detroit Stories as they were meant to be told.
"Detroit Stories" will be available on CD, CD+DVD Digipak, CD Box Set (including CD, Blu-ray, T-shirt, face mask, torch light and 3 stickers), and 2LP Gatefold on February 26, 2021 on earMUSIC.
And since Alice hasn't been able to tour for awhile, Alice asked us to include a DVD and Blu-ray of the incredible last show of the 2019 "Paranormal" tour – "A Paranormal Evening At The Olympia Paris" – available for the first time on video. With all concerts being cancelled or postponed, and the world still facing the Covid 19 pandemic at home, Alice Cooper asked us to bring the show to you… until we can celebrate the joy of Rock and Roll together again.
