I’ve been wearing New Balance Minimus Trail 10‘s for the last year. Those and my Reef Smoothy’s see about 90% of my actual time in footwear. Even walking in these “barefoot” shoes has helped quite a bit. No knee pain, no foot pain, much stronger calves. And, while I’m not much of a runner, I have found short jogs in them have changed my stride and I’m becoming more efficient. Lastly, lifting in them is a great experience: no more pitching forward on Olympic lifts!

B.E.A.R.™ Elite | Adcor Defense.
As the U.S. Army announces it’s down-select for the Carbine program, interesting to see that rookie-company Adcor still has it’s hat in the ring. Long a supplier of components to other companies in the firearms arena, Adcor has leveraged their knowledge and expertise of machining and production to create what is arguably one of the most innovative, yet still plausible/feasible solutions for the needs outlined by the Army: create a carbine that leverages existing platforms, components, accessories, but improves upon it in almost every way. My lone complaint is the continuation of the buffer tube and subsequent lack of a folding stock. Something tells me we may be able to tackle that, soon, though. Here’s to hope and change!

REALLY missing my panini press. Can’t wait to get it out of storage next month!
Red Velvet Milkshake | Pass The Sushi!
Love me some Red Velvet cake. In a milkshake? Off the chain!
An easier option than the linked recipe, while it sounds awesome, would be to simply make a shake out of Ben & Jerry’s Red Velvet Cake.

My five-year-old is in love with cars. Proud to see him playing with my original ‘General Lee’ from the early 80’s!

Very interested in seeing more documentation on the armor, testing, and longevity of the materials, as well as how this will affect NIJ’s efforts for certification.
