+== Ultimate Texans  Duane Brown talks ankle surgery, NFL ==
+<html>Just two weeks after ankle surgery to repair a bone spur,[http://ithinksearch.com/gongsunlongzi/index.php/Usuario:Taylor763#Ultimate_Rockets_Thunder_spoil_Rockets_run_in_summer Ultimate Rockets  Thunder spoil Rockets run in summer], Texans All-Pro left tackle Duane Brown is running, working out and planning to be at training camp at the end of July as expected.
+Brown on Thursday described why he decided to have the surgery and how long the bone spurs had been bothering him.
+“I felt it about two months ago,[http://www.modellbauwiki.ch/index.php?title=Benutzer:KevinLee104#Broker_Safety_and_Soundness-_Cyprus_Was_a_Forex_Wakeup_Call Broker Safety and Soundness- Cyprus Was a Forex Wakeup Call], but it really didn’t bother me that much because it was kind of an annoying, irritating thing,” Brown said. “The last couple of days of OTAs it became an issue where it kind of affected the way I played and I couldn’t perform the way I wanted to. That’s when I decided to go ahead with the procedure. I just couldn’t really explode off of my right leg like I wanted to,[http://www.labview.ru/wiki/index.php/%D0%A3%D1%87%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA:Taylor542#Travel_smart-_Don.27t_let_thieves_spoil_summer_travel Travel smart- Don't let thieves spoil summer travel], trying to redirect and things like that.”
+As far as Brown was concerned, there was really no downside to having the surgery when he did because of the short recovery time. As he sees it, the only negative is that it cut into his summer break.
+“But I would probably have been working out anyway so not really an issue,” he said.
+Brown said he was in a boot for only a few days after the surgery and was never on crutches. He can run; he can move on it. And while he says it’s still a little bit sore,[http://eird.org/comunicapraes/index.php/Usuario:KevinLee940#MANAGUA.2C_Nicaragua-_Nicaragua.2C_Venezuela_offer_asylum_to_Sno MANAGUA, Nicaragua- Nicaragua, Venezuela offer asylum to Sno], he added that it hasn’t impacted his training.
+The bone spur was something that developed over time and stemmed from other ankle problems Brown had.
+“I’ve had a couple ankle sprains in my career in the last four or five years,” he said. “I guess my ankle just had an extra growth. My bone just had an extra growth that it built to protect itself. It was just an extra ball that was right on my joint.
+“Every time I would bend where the joint usually goes smoothly, it was hitting that knot that was on my bone and it was really painful.”
+More pleasantly this summer, Brown was named the No. 48 player on NFL Network s top 100 players,[http://podroz.ru/index.php/U%C5%BCytkownik:Taylor227#Some_Perspective_on_Student_Loan_Debt_Fears_0 Some Perspective on Student Loan Debt Fears 0], a list voted on by other players.
+ It was awesome, Brown said. That was a huge honor for me to be recognized by my peers as one of the top 100 players at any position. That s a big deal for me considering where my career started and the progress that I made up to this point.</html>

Suspended LSU running back Jeremy Hill has pleaded guilty to simple battery in connection with a bar fight in April.
+Hill entered the plea Friday in state district court in Baton Rouge. He will not have to go to jail for the fight,[http://www.fwditon.com/ Juneteenth reminds us of our freedom_0], but his future remains in question. He faces the possible revocation of the probation he was granted following a January 2012 guilty plea to a misdemeanor stemming from his sexual relationship with a then-14-year-old girl at his high school.
+District Attorney Hillar Moore says it will be up to a judge to decide whether Hill should serve the suspended six-month sentence in that earlier case.

+== Anchorage- Gold medalists highlight Sadler's Alaska Chal ==
+<html>Anchorage Everything is upsidedown this year in the Sadler's Alaska Challenge. The finale is now the prologue and most of the veterans are rookies.
+Known as the world's longest and toughest handcycle race, the 267-mile marathon begins Monday in Anchorage, the place where it usually ends.
+Instead of wrapping up with a time trial from Eagle River to Anchorage, the week-long stage race will begin with a time trial from Lake Hood to Kincaid Park. After that, racers head to Fairbanks -- the traditional start -- for a series of races that will take them to the finish line at the top of Hatcher Pass.
+"It's a big difference ending at Hatcher Pass with the hillclimb," Beth Edmands of Challenge Alaska said Thursday. "That keeps it a real race to the end, because you never know how people are going to do on that."
+A field of 17 racers is entered, nearly all of them rookies. The only race veterans are Fairbanks staple Larry Coutermarsh, who will be racing for the 26th time,[http://how.ph/wiki/Tagagamit:KevinLee074#Ultimate_Rockets_Rockets.2C_Howard_speak_of_championsh Ultimate Rockets  Rockets, Howard speak of championsh], and past champions Peer Bartels of Germany and Carlos Moleda of South Carolina.
+Each and every racer comes equipped with a compelling story. Moleda, for example, is a Brazilian who moved to the United States as a teenager and went on to become a Navy Seal. He was sent to Panama, where his 10-man unit came under intense gunfire that wounded nine of them, four fatally. Since then, Moleda has claimed four Hawaii Ironman triathlon championships, two national handcycling championships and the 1999 Sadler's championship.
+Moleda, 50, is one of nine military veterans in the race and one of five who was injured while serving in the military. But he and Coutermarsh are the only veterans who have done the Sadler's race -- the rest are rookies.
+Adding heft to the field are two gold medalists from the 2012 London Paralympics. Rafal Wilk, a 38-year-old from Poland, won two golds, and Walter Ablinger, a 44-year-old from Austria, won gold and silver.
+The race lost another gold medalist earlier this week when Muffy Davis of Salt Lake City was nominated for an ESPY award. The awards ceremony is Wednesday in Los Angeles, so Davis, who won three gold medals in London, withdrew from the race,[http://wiki.study.gosbook.ru/index.php/%D0%A3%D1%87%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA:Taylor828#What_are_the_Pink_Sheets- What are the Pink Sheets-], Edmands said.

+A new athletic director is expected to be named by early fall.

"We are committed to finding the right leader for a program that has brought much pride and honor to UAA. I'm confident that working with an extremely well-respected search firm will result in the hiring of a dynamic leader who will continue to move our program positively forward."

+== Some Perspective on Student Loan Debt Fears ==
+<html>College is expensive—and getting more so in recent years, with costs advancing at a rate far exceeding overall inflation. And many students borrow (occasionally heavily) to meet the expense—including some who have no immediate hope of repayment after graduation. With government college loan rates potentially set to reset higher in July, this has ignited fears of a potential debt-drag on US economic growth. Yet, given some perspective, these fears seem very unwarranted from a market and economic impact point of view.
+The issue at hand seems to be the scheduled July 1, 2013 expiration of 2007 legislation that gradually reduced student loan rates. If nothing changes, rates would double from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent. Student loan delinquencies already exceed credit cards,[http://dcportal.dc-hosting.pl/wiki/index.php/U%C5%BCytkownik:KevinLee883#David_Drake_Discusses_the_Current_State_of_Crowdfunding David Drake Discusses the Current State of Crowdfunding], and some fear the rise would crush recent college graduates.
+Higher rates would clearly impact the students and graduates involved. Yet the student loan market is government-guarantee dominated—there's very little private sector exposure here. In fact, the government is currently originating roughly 93 percent of overall student loans,[http://szxslt.com/home.php?mod=space&uid=19138 ], up from 77 percent prior to 2008. So for inherently private sector stocks and markets, the direct effect is minimal at best.
+Another reason the effect is minimal is only  would be impacted. The affected rates are only on —issued after July 1,[http://www.hrs-salzhausen.de/mediawiki/index.php?title=Benutzer:Taylor830#Is_It_Time_for_Your_Financial_Checkup- Is It Time for Your Financial Checkup-], 2012. Preexisting loan rates are unaffected.
+But this all assumes July 1 comes and rates shoot higher. And that’s a speculative bet at best. Just last year, Congress faced the  on this exact topic—a looming automatic rate hike on July 1. Yet,[http://wiki.npl.ch/wiki/Benutzer:Taylor185#Wholesale_Inventories_Unexpectedly_Drop_in_May.2C_Sales_Up Wholesale Inventories Unexpectedly Drop in May, Sales Up], when push came to shove, a last-minute extension was passed on June 29. Hence, it seems there’s plenty of time to figure out a deal before the automatic rate increase occurs, particularly given Congress's penchant for last minute can-kicking.
+And talks are already underway. Many and varied versions of bills circulating Capitol Hill presently seek to forestall the rate doubling.  are getting little attention and stand next-to-no chance of passing. Other bills with broader support seek to extend current rates. Still others, like a , tie rates to 10-year bond yields plus a spread. That's similar to a proposal in President Obama's budget, though the spread and terms differ. There's currently ample time and political will to prevent this student-loan-fiscal rock climb. And importantly, while many may unfortunately carry student loan debt, the unemployment rate for those  is presently 3.9%, down from its recent cyclical peak of 5.1%. Hence,[http://sj.sanya.gov.cn/Review.asp?NewsID=394 Chevron Lowers Second Quarter Expectations After Production Snafus], the number of folks with a degree, too much debt and no job is seemingly a small share of total borrowers.
+Last year, when the extension passed, it was an election year—perhaps a factor in its passing. Yet in a very realistic sense, politicians are nearly always on the campaign trail. We're betting relatively few of them decide they want to look as though they're putting a big squeeze on higher education, and will vote for politically popular proposals pushing out loan rate hikes further.
