I'm not much of a fighter type myself, though I have spent a fair amount of time in the boxing ring, so I have a little bit of perspective from that angle.
Anyway, if you'd enjoy getting together with a couple other friendly and straightforward guys, to watch the fights, have a beer, eat some sports-bar food - send me an email, tell me a bit about yourself.
I have two brief anonymous surveys that I'm conducting regarding this topic (thru surveymonkey.com)-- one geared toward general sport professionals/volunteers/adult soccer enthusiasts; and one for parents of greater Austin children, even if there's no family involvement in soccer.
Hoping you wouldn't mind participating to help further my education. Below are the survey links:
The survey deadline is this Friday, November 13th and I'm hopeful of your assistance... If any questions, feel free to reply to aluper@stedwards.edu
Thank you, in advance, for your time and consideration!
Come get a taste of what all the excitement is about- play in our weekly pickup games- every Tuesday from 6:30 to 8:30. First time is free! It’s really low key and a great way to learn the sport. We provide the equipment, all you need to bring are sneakers and some water.

We will meet 3 times a week in the South Austin Area.
The winning team will take home new shiny medals, and everyone will walk away with some great new friends and hopefully some new leads on the job front. Come out and join us for a few hours of fun because once you get a job there probably won’t be a lot of time to play kickball on a random Thursday afternoon!
We will also be collecting canned goods and non-perishable items to donate to the Capital Area Food Bank of Texas to help those families who need a little extra help to get through these upcoming holiday months.
Burning Calories - can burn as many as 400 calories in 45 minutes which is similar to a good 3 hour gym session.
Is Boot Camp too early in the morning? Pole Classes are offered during the day and evening to fit into most schedules. Dancers why not take a class on your way to work?
Builds Muscle and Tones - supporting your entire weight with one arm can be challenging and will build your upper body. It also helps strengthen your stomach muscles and you can, if you go regularly expect to see increased muscle definition in your bottom, arms and thighs.
Beats The Winter Blues “ the physical exertion makes your body release the happy hormones “ endorphins making you feel better and more energetic.
Also, if anyone is interested in being my workout buddy then that would be awesome, too. I currently have a membership to Gold's Gym. I usually go to the Tech Ridge branch of off Canyon Ridge Blvd. but I would be willing to go to a different one if it is still a reasonable distance from me.
About me:
I am a 22 year-old male, I'm pretty athletic already and I love playing sports (mostly football, or soccer, or other team sports of that nature, but I also like tennis and racketball, too). My fitness goal right now is to GAIN muscular weight. I'm trying to put on about 15 pounds of muscle over the next several months.
I'm a fun, very positive, out-going guy and I would like to meet some new people who are like me. Just shoot me an e-mail to tell me a little about yourself or about your sports team/league/whatever and I'll get back to you quickly!
I specialize in half day and single day Rock Climbing Trips, but I do all types of custom expeditions such as canyoneering, rockclimbing, rappelling, and horse back rides through the Sierra Madres Mts in Nuevo Leon, Mexico
Date Special - $80 for a half day private climbing session for two people @ the green belt near Downtown Austin.

Here’s what our clients are saying about Austin Adventure Boot Camp:
I admit it. I'm a boot camp junkie. I've gone from a size 22 to a size 12, and even though I still have a long journey ahead of me to get to where I want to be, I know that I will be able to do it. I've never felt more empowered.
I am thrilled with the Boot Camp program!! I love getting my workout done early in the morning and I'm already noticing results -- for one thing, my jeans are fitting better after only 4 days!
I really enjoy this program. The best thing about the program is the variety it provides. No more boring exercise routines! We never know what is in store for us, but we know it will be a good, hard workout.
I have been trying for so many years to get back in shape. I think Boot Camp has finally got me on the right path. And I am having so much fun. I never thought I could have SO MUCH FUN getting fit.
I absolutely loved the camp - the benefits have carried over into so many areas of my life. I have recruited several friends to join me next time and plan to do your boot camp many more times before year end.
Just looking to reconnect with some new video game enthusiasts. So come on over for some MW2 or Borderlands this Saturday (11/14) and hang out for some all day gaming.
About me: I'm married, mid-30's, kids. Live in middleclass suburban RR neighborhood. To give you an idea of my gaming tastes, some of my favorite games of all time are: Street Fighter (especially SF2:Hyper Fighting, SSF2 HD Remix , and Steet Fighter IV), Quake 3 Arena/Quake Live, Final Fantasy VI (SNES), Herzog Zwei (Genesis), and Samurai Shodown 2/3 (Neo Geo). My preferred current gen console is the Xbox 360, but I also own a PS3 and *cough* Wii.

For the 21st year in a row, the Lone Star Vegetarian Network (LSVN) is messin' with a serious Texas tradition. On Sunday, November 15, from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., teams from across the Lone Star state will gather at the Historic Farmers Market in Austin to compete in one of the fiercest competitions in the field of chili cookin'. Yes, it's a high-spirited event, but it's also fun, healthy and animal friendly. It's the best tastin' and heart healthiest Chili Cook Off Ever!!!!
Chili teams create an amazing array of delicious meatless chili to taste. With unexpected ingredients, consistencies and flavors on a wide range on the heat index, these magical concoctions will both delight and dazzle the vegetarian and the non-vegetarian. The chilies range from mild and spicy with a good balance of flavors to fiery, toenail curling chili with an aggressive use of peppers. Contestants go wild with their creative use of ingredients…….which is only limited by their imaginations. And boy, are they imaginative!
Chili teams also compete for the best booth. They tend to be extravagant in their creative themes, costumes and decorations.
ACTIVITIES:
A day filled with tasty vegan competition, compassionate camaraderie, mingling, "celebrity judges," significant cash awards and enviable trophies for winners, knee slapping and toe tapping live music, animal rescue groups, animal adoptions, children's table, face painting, fabulous door prizes, exceptional vendors and interesting, educational exhibits. It's a "must attend Texas event of the year."

2pm - 2:30pm : Explanation and tutorial for new players / Veteran Demo Game.
2:30pm - 4pm : Commence Mojo!
Krieg Softball Complex (Lefty) Field #7
Put simply, Mojo Kickball is multi-ball kickball with elements of dodgeball, tag, and even a little touch football mixed in. But it's so much more than that. It fills a void in recreational sports that has existed for a long long time, for adults and children alike.
Mojo Kickball is free to play and learn. We welcome new people and are happy to have you. Our only desire is to spread Mojo Kickball throughout the world. We have been featured in several local publications and have even been on the front page of the Wall Street Journal.
If you're new to Mojo Kickball, or if you just want to hear the rules again, come at the tutorial time (above) and we'll explain the game. Players who have played before will put up a quick demo game that you can watch and take in. If you're new, this is definitely something you'll want to hear/see - trust us.
Depending on how many new people we have we may have a demo game, or just go right into Mojo. Either way, show up on time and we'll be guaranteed to make the most of the field.
Since the field is reserved and paid for, there will be a suggested $2 donation. Or you may just donate online at Mojokickball.com
For the field map, of Krieg, go here:

The winning team will take home new shiny medals, but everyone will walk away with some great new friends and hopefully some new leads on the job front. Come out and join us for a few hours of fun because once you get a job there probably won’t be a lot of time to play kickball on a random Thursday afternoon!

Here’s what our clients are saying about Austin Adventure Boot Camp:
Since I started the boot camps, I have lost 14 pounds, lost 8" off my waist, 4" off my hips, 2" off each thigh, calf and arm.
Boot camp has really helped me to get back in shape after having a baby. My body has come back to its pre-baby state in just a few months and I think I am in even better shape than before and have more energy to play with my 10 month old all day.
It has been the best motivator for me. I have never been a very athletic person, so this got me excited to work out. I looked forward to it every day. I would love to do this every month!
I love Austin Adventure Boot Camp!!!! I have exceeded my expectations for physical improvement. I definitely feel stronger and have better endurance.
I have attended 4 boot camp sessions and will be attending until my legs fall off. It's hard to state which exercise is my favorite, but I would have to say that the most noticeable difference is in my upper body. My arms get more and more toned every time we work on them.
Pole Goddess is designed for women of all ages, shapes and sizes to feel great about themselves by releasing their sensual side through the art of exotic and pole dance.
Previous dance experience is not necessary.
We bring the pole, music, special lighting and props plus a special gift for the hostess and/or guest of honor.
Have a recipe for the world's best vegetarian chili? Perhaps a secret family recipe that's been handed down generations? Or one you're working on? Maybe you have one for a delicious Green mango chili? And what about a Fifteen-bean chili? Does your chili have an amusing kick, a nice smooth flavor, a good balance of spices and peppers? Or spicy and tasty with an impressive and aggressive tang?
This creative contest is for you! You're only limited by your imagination. So start concocting that masterpiece now.
A down-loadable entry form is available at the www.LSVN.org or you can email Liz at Liz@LSVN.org or call (512) 921-1125 to request a form be sent to you.

I'm 35 and she's 29 with a baby on the way so we wanted to find a way to keep poker in our lives without having to go out when baby finally arrives. We don't have an overly huge apartment so we're looking for a total of 5-8 players and hopefully make it fun, laid back and social. I'm a social drinker and not a huge stickler for poker rules....just more about keeping it light.
If you're interested, shoot me an email and we'll set something up.
