I have a wire haired griffon mix that i have taken on multiday hikes and constantly take on runs when i know there is plenty of water around. She carries a pack and I have taken her on mountain trips, trips during the snow and trips during high heat times and have never had problems no matter wha...

[quote]also would trail running help reduce shin splints? i get them pretty bad but have never tried trail running[/quote] My legs always feel better when running on trails as opposed to the road. You may be really sore at first from using new muscles, but running on grass or dirt is much better ...

I have brooks Cascadias and absolutely love them. I also wear mine when backpacking and hiking. They dry quickly, offer good stability without being too clunky and are comfortable to wear all day. They have the brooks DNA midsole in them which reacts differently to each surface and foot-strike so tr...

re: Anyone play EVE?

Posted by bamfchris on 3/20/12 at 2:41 pm
On a related note Dust 514 looks pretty interesting. It's going to be an MMOFPS somehow linked to the EVE universe but on PS3. http://www.dust514.org/ I played eve for a month or so but not my cup of tea. I used to play earth and beyond, which was what i was expecting in EVE. If they can ...

Barneys is like 20 a day but only goes up to 50 yards. I always go out to a range near cecilia(i think),i know its next to the levee, that my friend belongs to. Up to 300 yards on the rifle, with a pistol range and skeet thrower. Can't remember the name, but ill try and find out. Besides that i k...

Any idea on the beta release or official release date? I signed up for the beta but havent heard anything. Im hoping its after the summer because with new battlefield DLC, Arma 3, and CS:Go coming out this summer ill be FPS my arse off. But if it is summer ill just play that instead of Battlefield...
I sense a lot of current cougars in this thread. If only the recruiting boards approval would get him an offer. Kid looks good but as of now he's lower tier SEC at best. Got a season left to prove otherwise, but with the horrible playcalling at STM recently i don't see much hope for him to light...

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/top/ Seems like a lot of good stuff is out already. I had to reinstall, so i havent got to try any but "Wars in Skyrim" and Hardcore mode sound really cool. Theres also a Dovahkiin hideout and a bunch of visual enhancements that seem to improve the game g...
i agree that all those listed are great but to be fair its safe to say that those are not the best they have to offer. A few that ive seen are Fawlty towers, Im Alan Partidge, Spaced, Blackadder, Extras(i consider it British because of Gervais and Merchant),Little Britain, Monty Python,Whose line...

[quote]Peep Show[/quote] Just started watching this on netflix and i love it so far. I feel with british television they put more emphasis on talent as opposed to good looks. Hbo and AMC follow this formula with great success. Most british actors have some formal training where most america...

I loved netflix for about a year but im getting pretty low on good titles. I enjoy many different genres so its not like i am only in it for one type of show. I just wish they would update their selection more often. There are some good classic movies and lesser known gems in there, but those ca...
Yea, if its something like buffalo river or big bend i will rent canoes and try to hike a little bit to see things off the river. Id rather do a true backpacking trip because i like the challenge of a long hike and deciding on what to pack. I also want a reason to use my new Marmot Nusku tent. ...
Looking for a good 3-6 day trip within a days drive of lafayette. I am considering buffalo river, big bend national park but am open to go a little further if it is worth it. I am open to any type of terrain or challenge so suggest away. Doesn't have to be a boat trip like the two listed but i he...

[quote]I'm talking about a WR that couldn't EASILY be replaced. Welker/amendola/woodhead are all sort of the same guy.[/quote] Love when i hear stuff like that. Danny Wood-head is nothing like the first two. Its clear you don't understand football if you think they are the same type of player. Y...
Obviously our class could have been better if we would have won the game but if you follow recruiting you would understand that one year does not define a program. If we continue to be at the top of our conference we will continue to recruit well. We have plenty of players in this class to be ex...

Not worth even going there.. but to place it next to wars, tsunamis and famine? You sir, need to consider a new source for your news.. I could list about 50 things our country faces that would be more of a problem... some radical conservative movement is not one of them. ...
