FVWM-Crystal aims to create an easy to use, pretty, but also powerful desktop environment for Linux or other Unix-like operating systems. It uses the following programs: FVWM as a window manager and "main core"; different ways to provide icons on the desktop including support for many file managers and custom commands; xterm, aterm, mrxvt, or urxvt as terminal emulators; MPD or XMMS2 as music players (there's built-in support for controlling these programs), and several other tools for different functions, like setting a wallpaper or taking screenshots.
IceWM Control Panel is a full-featured, GTK-based control panel for IceWM. It features an IceWM theme designer, Ice Sound Manager (for sound events), IcePref2, and tools to manage desktop wallpaper, cursors, keys, window options, and more. IceWM Control Panel has a familiar, Windows-like Control Panel user interface.
Ice Sound Manager was designed to ease the management of sound events, sound themes, and the IceSound server in the IceWM window manager. It is also intended to be an improvement upon the noble but primitive icesndcfg. The main improvements over icesndcfg include a support for sound event "themes", more comprehensive help, easy management and configuration of the IceSound server, a cleaner GUI interface, automatic starting of the IceSound server, and a more conservative approach to disk space usage.
IcePref2 is an updated, overhauled, improved, and perfected version of the original IcePref (which was abandoned by the original author). This new version includes many new features and bugfixes, and is a sub-project of the IceWM Control Panel project. It is optimized for IceWM 1.2.2 and better.

Barcelona 3 : 1 Rayo Vallecano - Vallecano can't handle Barca
Posted Sunday, March 17, 2013 by PA
Lionel Messi and David Villa combined to devastating effect to see off Rayo Vallecano 3-1 and help Barcelona restore their 13-point lead at the top of La Liga.
Rayo could not handle the partnership which accounted for all three goals - Messi netting twice after Villa had opened the scoring.
The visitors remain in mid-table but can feel satisfied with an enterprising display which saw them create numerous chances before Raul Tamudo grabbed a late consolation.
They would have been beaten by a greater margin, however, had Barca made more of the plethora of chances which they carved out.
Confidence was clearly high in the Azulgrana ranks following their 4-0 demolition of AC Milan in the Champions League in midweek - a result which saw them overturn a 2-0 first-leg deficit and power through to a last-eight meeting with Paris St Germain.
They could have opened the scoring after five minutes only for Messi to uncharacteristically fluff his lines.
Having been presented with an open goal by Cesc Fabregas, the Argentinian dallied on the ball and allowed the Rayo defence to get back and avert the danger.
Messi did rather better three minutes later with a curling free-kick which struck the bar with visiting goalkeeper Ruben a spectator.
Rayo immediately went up the other end but their penalty claims after Alejandro Dominguez went down theatrically in the penalty area under a challenge from Javier Mascherano were waved away.
Roberto Trashorras tested Barca stand-in goalkeeper Jose Pinto - regular number one Victor Valdes is suspended - in the 22nd minute before the hosts went in front.
Messi cleverly beat his marker on the halfway line before feeding Villa and the Spain international made no mistake with a clinical right-footed shot into the top corner.
The long-standing rumours that Messi and Villa do not get on appeared even more far-fetched when they combined again five minutes before half-time.
Having pulled down Sergio Busquets' raking ball, Villa played in Messi who swept his shot past Ruben. It was the 18th league match in succession in which Messi has scored.
Villa ought to have made it 3-0 before the break but dragged his shot past the far post after being played in by Fabregas.
Dani Alves, a 23rd-minute substitute for the injured Adriano - the Brazilian was later ruled out for up to six weeks with a hamstring injury - was a constant menace for the Rayo defence and he lashed a shot against the post shortly after the restart.
Alexis Sanchez was next to try his luck, after 54 minutes, but could only pull his shot woefully wide having been set up by a combination of Messi and Alves.
A third Barca goal seemed a matter of time and it arrived after 57 minutes on the counter-attack.
Barca cleared a Rayo corner to leave Villa and Messi with a two-on-two situation. Villa's pass took out one Rayo defender and Messi outsprinted the other - Anaitz Arbilla - before a trademark clip over the advancing Ruben.
Rayo pulled one back with 20 minutes to go as former Espanyol striker Tamudo, whistled on to the field as a substitute for Andrija Delibasic, netted within a minute of his introduction, turning home a low Piti centre.
Lass Bangoura then forced Pinto to scramble across his line with a shot which ended up in the side-netting as Rayo threatened an unlikely comeback.
Barca swiftly reasserted their superiority and ought to have added further gloss to the scoreline but Messi was denied by a wonderful Ruben save before the FIFA World Player of the year scooped a dainty shot on to the roof of the net in injury time.

UPDATE: The HARD board voted to oppose construction of the power plant at its Monday night meeting. They essentially said that it's their job to act in the interest of the parks, and the plant would have a negative impact, at least visually, for people using the Hayward Regional Shoreline. "It's our job to make sure that our assets are protected," said boardmember Minane Jameson. "Tens of thousands of people use the shoreline and the interpretive center, and (the power plant) will hurt our business." Jameson made the motion to oppose and was joined by Paul Hodges and Dennis Waespi. Carol Pereira and Lou Andrade were absent. We'll have a story about the upcoming Sept. 2 meeting on the power plant later this week.
To protest the proposed Calpine Russell City Energy Center, of course.
At Thursday night's downtown Hayward street party, a small group of demonstrators gathered in front of the Calpine booth. One was dressed as a chicken and carried a sign urging people to honk, but the road was closed to vehicle traffic so few could comply.
Calpine opponents plan on attending Monday's HARD meeting, urging the park and rec district to oppose the power plant. And the next big deal is set for Sept. 2 at City Hall in Hayward, when the Bay Area Air Quality Management District will hold a public hearing regarding issuing a permit for the plant.
The BAAQMD issued a draft permit earlier this summer.
Back to the street party. Thursday was the third of four such things, and there seemed to be more people than at the last one. It went off pretty smooth, police said, although there was a skirmish in the parking lot behind Buffalo Bill's (also behind the Daily Review) after the party ended. There were reports it was a 15-on-1 fight, and at least one hysterical woman called police, but when they arrived the involved parties had scattered.
Here's a few more pics from the festival:

More Musil! (With a bit of Lance Armstrong and Oprah)
"The Committee on Public Worship and Education reported on the progress of the definitive suggestion, tentatively announced, to erect a great Emperor of Peace and Austrian Peoples Monument near the Imperial Residence; after consultation with the Imperial and Royal Office for Public Worship and Education, and after sounding out the leading art, engineering, and architectural associations, the Committee had found the differences such that it saw itself constrained—without prejudice to eventual future requirements and subject to the Central Executive Committee's consent—to announce a competition for the best plan for a competition with regard to such an eventual monument."Some may find that apt commentary on public bidding for government projects; I especially liked "the definitive suggestion, tentatively announced," a reminder that a staement's meaning depends on the whims of whoever utters it. And this:
"Ulrich. who found such displays of naked emotion distasteful, remembered at this point that most people or, bluntly speaking, the average sort, whose minds are stimulated without being able to create, long to act out their own selves. These are of course the same people who are so likely to find, going on inside them, something `unutterable'—truly a word that says it all for them and that is the clouded screen upon which whatever they say appears vaguely magnified, so that they can never tell its real value."Somehow that reminds me of the unsavory penchant for public confession in our culture, apt the day Lance Armstrong says he is "ready to speak candidly" (sic) to Oprah Winfrey.

The Golden Hour of Phishing Attacks 59
Orome1 writes "Trusteer conducted research into the attack potency and time-to-infection of email phishing attacks. One of their findings was that 50 per cent of phishing victims' credentials are harvested by cyber criminals within the first 60 minutes of phishing emails being received. Given that a typical phishing campaign takes at least one hour to be identified by IT security vendors, which doesn't include the time required to take down the phishing Web site, they've dubbed the first 60 minutes of a phishing site's existence is the critical 'golden hour.'"

Warning beacons of Gondor
This article or section needs expansion and/or modification. Please help the wiki by expanding it.
This article or section needs more/new/more-detailed sources to conform to a higher standard and to provide proof for claims made.
The warning beacons of Gondor were an alarm system for the realm of Gondor.
"See, there is the fire on Amon Dîn, and flame on Eilenach; and there they go speeding west: Nardol, Erelas, Min-Rimmon, Calenhad, and the Halifirien on the borders of Rohan" — Gandalf to Pippin[1]
"…The Lord of the City had beacons built on the tops of outlying hills along both borders of the great range, and maintained posts on these points where fresh horses were always in readiness to bear his errand-riders to Rohan in the North, or to Belfalas in the South." — Gandalf to Pippin[2]
The beacons were two series of permanently manned stations maintained by the lord of Minas Tirith for raising the alarm in northern and southern Gondor respectively. The stations were on the summits of foothills in the White Mountains (Ered Nimrais). The stations kept signal fires in readiness and stabled fresh horses for couriers.
The northern posts, listed from nearest to Minas Tirith to nearest Rohan, were Amon Dîn, Eilenach, Nardol, Erelas, Min-Rimmon, Calenhad and Halifirien (or Amon Anwar).
We can only speculate on the positions of the southern posts, but based on the description of following foothills of the White Mountains, and their spread of 20 to 30 miles, there may have been as many as ten beacons along the southern foothills, following a course west by southwest through Lebennin and passing through the hills north of Dor-en-Ernil, south of Ringlo.
In the late Second Age and early Third Age, they mainly served to warn south Gondor of a danger for the northern province of Calenardhon, or vice versa, but after the Steward of Gondor Cirion granted Calenardhon to the Éothéod they were used mainly to warn the people in Anórien (the only part of Calenardhon Gondor kept in its realm) of danger[source?].
Calls for aid between Gondor and Rohan were exchanged by a messenger carrying the Red Arrow instead[source?].
During the War of the Ring the beacons were lit when Minas Tirith came under siege, and as the Rohirrim rode to Gondor's aid they passed all seven beacons by on their way east[source?].
The tomb of Elendil was hidden on the summit of Halifirien, westernmost of the beacon mountains[source?].
Portrayal in Adaptions
2003: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King:
- One of the major changes made to the story is that when Gandalf and Pippin ride to Minas Tirith the beacons are not lit, since the despairing Denethor has decided not to ask for for help. In the movie there is a beacon just above the city, and to summon the Rohirrim Gandalf asks Pippin to evade the guards and light it. Once he has done so, the film depicts the other beacons being lit one by one until the last is sighted by Aragorn who is in Edoras, and it is this (and not the Red Arrow, which is not mentioned in the film) which finally helps him to persuade Théoden to muster the Rohirrim to Gondor's aid.
- Another change is that in the movie there are about ten beacons as opposed to the seven described in the book.[3]

- ↑ The Return of the King, page 731
- ↑ The Return of the King, page 732
- ↑ The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, "The Lighting of the Beacons"
- Also, the beacons were depicted as signal fires only (without stables), atop mountain peaks instead of foothills.

Mount Union Board of Trustees Unanimously Resolves to Name Institution University of Mount Union
May 24, 2010
After reviewing research gathered through efforts with numerous constituents and processing the pros and cons of the various options, the Mount Union College Board of Trustees unanimously resolved today that the name of the institution be University of Mount Union, effective August 1, 2010.
This decision follows October's unanimous vote of the Board to change the designation of the institution from "college" to "university."
At the direction of the Board, members of the Label Implementation Task Force have spent the past few months gathering research and perceptions about how the "university" label should be incorporated with the name. The results of their efforts were reported to the Board today during its annual winter meeting.
"Coming to a decision on the name, like the initial change to a "university" designation, was an emotionally challenging process that involved much careful consideration and discussion," said Lee Ann (Johnston '83) Thorn, chair of the Board of Trustees. "I am grateful to those members of the Mount Union community who provided their valuable insights during this process. We will be turning to them once again in the coming months to gather additional input as we work toward developing an accompanying brand marketing effort."
This effort will include institutional positioning and brand clarification that will further propel the visibility and reputation of the institution. The result will be a concise and unique marketing strategy that will communicate the essence of the Mount Union experience to all constituents.
"It is truly an exciting time at Mount Union," said Dr. Richard F. Giese, president of Mount Union. "Collectively, we have achieved much, including the addition of new academic programs, completion of innovative facilities and modest growth of the enrollment.
"We have much reason to celebrate, but we also know that it is critical that we set the course for the next step in the institution's development," he added. "The designation change and accompanying brand marketing effort will be further propelled by a strategic planning process that will provide a road map for the years to come."

Trainer John Shirreffs was asked about a horse other than Zenyatta at Hollywood Park on Thursday.
"We're going to try the Morvich with Scenic Blast," said Shirreffs from the stable kitchen porch overlooking the backside in reference to the Australian 2009 Horse of the Year being readied for the $100,000 Grade III test at six furlongs on turf Monday.
Scenic Blast seeks his first United States victory in four starts. He closed well to finish fourth and second, respectively, in the Robert Kerlan Handicap here and the Bing Crosby Stakes at Del Mar before finishing fifth in the Del Mar Mile Handicap in his last start on August 28.
"There wasn't much pace in the Del Mar Mile," said Shirreffs, hoping for a more contested lead in the Morvich, a "Win and You're In" race for the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint on Nov. 6.
Scenic Blast, winner of the Group I Newmarket Handicap at Flemington and the Group I King's Stand Stakes at Ascot in 2009, has won eight of 24 starts and earned $1,454,042 for Royal Aussie.
Scenic Blast is expected to be the starting highweight at 120 pounds. Other probable starters include Tropic Storm, David Flores, 118; Afleet Ruler, Joel Rosario, 115; Dilemma, Victor Espinoza, 114; Lt. Hopeful, Alonso Quinonez, 114; and Truest Legend, Patrick Valenzuela, 113.
Dancing in Silks came out of virtual obscurity last fall to win the Cal Cup Sprint in early October and the Breeders' Cup Sprint in early November.
Gaines hopes the 5-year-old gelding is on the same timetable after entering him in the $250,000 Ancient Title Stakes Saturday, a "Win and You're In" race for the Breeders' Cup Sprint November 6.
Gaines gave the California-bred six months off at Winner's Circle in Bradbury following a pair of dull efforts at Santa Anita last winter. He returned with a fourth-place finish in the Pirate's Bounty Stakes at Del Mar on September 8.
"He likes this track and has worked well on it," said Gaines Thursday. "I'd love to get back to the Breeders' Cup." Dancing in Silks leaves from the outside post in a field of eight under regular rider Joel Rosario in the six-furlong Grade I test on Cushion Track.
Dancing in Silks has won seven of 16 starts and earned $1,474,702 for owner Ken Kinakin.
Victor's Cry, who won the Grade I Shoemaker Mile at 22-to-1 odds on the Hollywood Park turf in May, will not be so lightly regarded Saturday in the $150,000 Grade II Oak Tree Mile.
The 5-year-old son of Street Cry finished a creditable second to The Usual Q.T. in the Eddie Read Stakes at Del Mar and checked in ninth in his last start in the Woodbine Mile on September 19.
"Eoin had great belief in his class, and he vindicated that in the Shoemaker Mile," said Alex Elliott, assistant to trainer Eoin Harty, on Thursday.
"The Eddie Read may have been a little too long for him," said Elliott of the 1 1/8-mile race. "At Woodbine, he was a lot closer to the pace than normal."
Victor's Cry drew post two in a field of seven under Corey Nakatani in the Oak Tree Mile, a " Win and You're In" race for the Breeders' Cup Mile on Nov. 6.
"It appears we're the only closer in the race; it should set up for him," said Elliott. "He loves California turf."
Victor's Cry seeks to join Silic (1999) and Aragorn (2006) as the only horses to win the Shoemaker and the Oak Tree Mile in the same year. He has won five of 19 starts and earned $411,021 for Equilete Stable.
FINISH LINES--Dan Hendricks, trainer of Oak Leaf Stakes longshot winner Rigoletta Sunday, said the 2-year-old filly will probably be supplemented to the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies. "It looks like we're going to," said Hendricks Thursday. "Her owners (Erik and Pavla Nygaard) want to make sure everything is okay, but Rigoletta looks great, and I'm going to train her like we're going. She relishes going long, and she has just enough speed to be up there without being on the lead, a style which suits the Breeders' Cup race well."… Vic Stauffer, agent for injured jockey Tyler Baze, said the rider is not expected to return until the Santa Anita winter meet. Stauffer explained that Baze has not healed as quickly as expected following surgery for facial injuries suffered in a freak accident when his mount "head-butted" him behind the starting gate early in the Del Mar meet… R.C. Ebanks, son of agent Ron Ebanks, has taken the book of apprentice Jesus Velazquez…Trainer Tom Proctor arrived this week with 15 horses and said he expects five more…Alonso Quinonez has taken a call on Haimish Hy for trainer Art Sherman in the $150,000 Oak Tree Derby on Oct. 16. Trainer Jim Cassidy said he also plans to enter Kid Edward in the Grade II turf test…Jockey Mike Smith will travel to Woodbine Oct. 16 to ride Spice Route for trainer Roger Attfield in the $2-million Canadian International Stakes.

Submission + - Indian Nurses Fired After Refusing Flu Shots on Religious Grounds 4
Hugh Pickens writes writes: "ABC News reports that Indiana University Health Goshen Hospital has fired eight employees after they refused mandatory flu shots, stirring up controversy over which should come first: employee rights or patient safety. The fired nurses include Joyce Gingerich and Sue Schrock who filed appeals on religious grounds. 'I feel like in my personal faith walk, I have felt instructed not to get a flu vaccination, but it's also the whole matter of the right to choose what I put in my body..." says Schrock adding that she has not had a flu vaccine for 30 years as a result of a choice she made because of her Christian faith. Over the last several years, hospitals have been moving toward mandatory vaccinations because many only have 60 percent vaccination rates says Dr. William Schaffner, chair of preventive medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Schaffner adds that nurses in particular tend to be the most reluctant to get vaccinated among health care workers, "There seems to be a persistent myth that you can get flu from a flu vaccine among nurses," says Schaffner. "They subject themselves to more influenza by not being immunized, and they certainly do not participate in putting patient safety first." But Jane M. Orient, M.D., executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, says the scientific case for flu vaccine mandates is very weak and that there is no evidence showing that vaccinated workers are less likely to transmit virus. "The scientific and religious concerns are in a sense backward," says Orient. "Advocates of the mandate are full of evangelical zeal and are quick to portray skeptics as wicked and selfish. It's like a secular religion, based on faith in vaccine efficacy and safety.""

Thinking that something will go all well and dandy, because realistically, some strength is needed to protect peace. Not everyone agree with the idea of peace and you need to force them so to some extent.

Exactly like what I think, thank you very much.
Oh, and sorry for the unclear explanation of the deduction (I did that sometimes) but it's quite logical if explained like
Ichika spouting personal information ->
Chifuyu asked how the hell he knew, implying that he's a stalker or a spy ->
He can't prove that it's a firsthand information that he experience himself, not something he gained by stalking ->
FemIchika think he can't prove himself as innocent and he worried being accused as stalker or something, not because FemIchika think he IS a stalker _>
Chifuyu acknowledge him as unable to prove that he's Ichika with only such information at hand ->
He gave up and basically "Screw this, I don't care anymore"
But without explanation, yeah, troll logic

Might wanna be careful with that) Anyway, my fic focus to have shifted to "Dark is not Evil" and "Light is not Good" both fantasy and mecha genre wise.
Dark of Zero (Fantasy) has main protagonist Raziel who's a walking seal for the darkness of humanity and uses corruption based powers, but he's unambiguously heroic compared to the Well intentioned extremist bishonen priest Julio who uses light based powers.
Reversal: The black haired and red-eyed (common depictions of evil), moody, and generally cold Chifuyu against the angelic featured Noblewoman Cecilia. This even carries over to their IS since Cecilia uses the elegant 'Blue Tears' while Chifuyu uses the intimidating and pointy 'Iron Maiden'.
Future Imperfect: The scarred clone Kazuma against the bright and cheerful Usagi. Kazuma comes off as the more violent and blunt among the two, along with having the traits of an enfante terrible, but Usagi's the one who often makes schemes for purely her own amusement and Kazuma's usually the one to stop them.
Guess it's a habit:/

Nah, it's author appeal and it's bad to outright deny that, and so far no problem as the result, because you didn't delve into author tract mode.
YET, just be careful and you'll be fine.
Hilarious idea:
Because music, emotion and I.S. are closely related in the Mirrorverse (Tabane was drunk, see...), song, instrumental, and dance is used in tuning and programming, solo or otherwise. This result with corny attempt at singing, hilarious concert battle, and treating folk dance or ball event as serious business.
Oh, and since it has to be done seriously, the pilot should put their honest feeling in. This of course result in disaster like Akatsubaki going haywire, LingyinxCecilia's literal (albeit platonic) masochism tango, and IchikaxIchika's waltz that made everyone embarrassed and/or aroused (the pair in question being selectively dense as usual)
And Dan doing a level grinding by playing death metal.

How crapsack is your future if the world is being invaded by aliens. Arrogant near omnipotent aliens who seek to enslave humans but are so secure and yet at the same time honorable...ish. that they give the humans a chance by deciding things with a prolonged wargame?
Once a week, each side must produce a suitable force and do combat depending one the conditions for victory. Total tally decides victor and ruler. The aliens give the humans some of their technology to make it sporting. So when humans actually fight the aliens, they are suddenly faced with the fact they are inside giant robots... But the aliens all use remote automata.

I'd find it funny if this plot were to be applied to IS. mostly because the fate of the world is in the hands of some lovestruck teenaged girls and their idiot love interest. In every other case it's because there are only 467 IS and an innumerable number of alien automata.

Then there'd be a gantz type aspect where some of the team dies and someone has to fill in for their slots after a very horrific and graphic death including but not limited to vaporization, implosion, explosion, suffocation, and practically sawed in half by fully automatic kinetic weapon. Only no resu.

You want crapsack? How about this:
On one side are the immortal and powerful parasites, who are in fact the rightful rulers of the world, who go on holy crusades for their God....who is, unknowingly to them, an eldritch abomination that feeds on souls.
On the other side we have the resistance against the parasites, who are will to go to ANY length to succeed in the war; consequences and lives for either them, the parasites, and anyone caught in between.
And finally the humans in between, who end up becoming Knight Templars who destroy and prosecute anything that isn't them and mercilessly kill any human that ends up with even a hint of being more than flesh and blood.
Finally, while this is happening, the world is literally dying around them and even death can't save them because said Eldritch Abomination snacks on their souls when they die. The worst part is that due to the way they were born all of this has been set to happen and no one can change it no matter how hard they fight to try.
Our protagonists for this cheery little world is a tyrannical vampire overlord who plans to save the world.....so he can rule it, and he goes to any extremes necessary to ensure his goals. Along with his former second in command turned soul eater who actually has free will, but keeps getting duped to follow new masters every single time. The world is effed.

It's a Love/Hate Relationship: Volume XIVPosted by jbaumgartner on March 7th, 2011
Jesse Baumgartner is an RTC contributor. In this weekly piece he'll review the five things he loved and hated about the previous seven days of college basketball. This week, Jesse digs a rout out west and credits the Thompson men in their handling of Klay's mistake, and tells the Longhorns and Hokies what he thinks of 'em.
Five Things I Loved This Week
I LOVED..…Rick Pitino saying that there were no hard feelings about the Louisville cheerleader who gave Pitt a chance to tie the game last Sunday by running onto the court and hurling the ball skyward, earning a technical. He went on to say that the overzealous student should "enjoy your moment of glory." But while Rick might have been all chummy the next day, that frankly was not the case after the game. Click this link and listen to the audio of his press conference: "I'm sure it was unintentional, but you could actually lose a game that way …. But hopefully he'll learn the rules of basketball next time." Pitino might have been in his happy-go-lucky PR mood after taking 24 hours to calm down, but his gut reaction is pretty hilarious – don't EVER touch my ball.
I LOVED……a subconscious admission of a classic Duke flop tactic (P.S., I'm neutralizing the upcoming Duke hate by giving Nolan Smith mad props for single-handedly keeping the Devils in the game against UNC this weekend). While watching the UK/Vanderbilt game this week, I saw a guard draw a three-shot foul by sticking out his legs on a jumper and acting his way into the call. The side announcer (I want to say it was Jimmy Dykes) proceeds to say, "Over the years, Duke's shooters. You go back to even guys like J.J. Redick. So good and so clever. (Jon) Scheyer. Nolan Smith right now…just enough of a foot out when you're in the air to draw contact." THREE Duke players, NO ONE ELSE! It was quite humorous, and come on – you've got to give credit first and foremost to Best Actor nominee Reggie Miller, who invented that move long ago.

Description for Sex Scandal America..(sample)
「Sex Scandal America: Politics & the Ritual of Public Shaming / David Rosen」
Sex Scandal America is a comprehensive history of sexual scandals in America from colonial times (including Pocahontas and the Puritans) to today (few know about this part of George W. Bush's dubious past). The book exposes the scandals of national political figures (presidents, congress-folk, governors) and those of celebrities (e.g., entertainers and tycoons). It ties these scandals to the deeper changes in sexual culture occurring during the various phases of the country's social evolution. Most importantly, it assesses the role of (political) scandals as a form of public shaming. The book shows how, over the last four centuries, scandals have changed as a ritualized spectacle, evolving from a morality tale to an entertainment distraction. ?www.SexScandalAmerica.com

|Wide Receivers Coach
|Dover, Del.
|High School:
|Alma Mater:
|Graduating Year:
|Ag. Business Mgmt.
|11 Years
Bryan Bossard, who starred on defense for the Blue Hens in the late-1980s before serving three stints on the University of Delaware coaching staff, rejoined his alma mater as wide receivers coach in February, 2014.
The 2016 season will mark Bossard's 11th year overall on the Delaware staff, second only to tight ends coach Brian Ginn.
"We are thrilled to welcome Bryan and his family back to the University of Delaware," said Delaware head coach Dave Brock in making the announcement. "I've known Bryan for a long time and I've always been very impressed by what he has been able to achieve professionally. What made him most attractive to us was his passion for Delaware football and the University of Delaware. I'm excited for him to be able to share the rich tradition and history of UD football that he has lived with our current players."
Bossard (pronounced "bo-sard"), a native of Dover, Del., returned to Delaware after serving four years (2010-13) as offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach at Bucknell University for head coach Joe Susan, a 1978 Delaware graduate who lettered for the Blue Hens in 1975-76.
"I have been fortunate to be able to coach with Bryan Bossard for the last four years," said Susan. "He was a friend before we began to work together. He is a strong family man, and in returning to Delaware things become much simpler for Bryan, his wife Kimber, and their two sons. He is a very good fundamental coach. His offensive knowledge is the result of a combination of his experiences at a variety of programs utilizing multiple schemes. He will be a positive role model for his players both on and off the field and will be an important component of Dave Brock's effort to bring championship football back to the special place that is the University of Delaware."
Bossard brings 26 years of experience coaching at the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) and Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) levels.
In his 15 years as a player and coach at Delaware, the Blue Hens put together a cumulative record of 119-63-1 (.653) and made seven NCAA Tournament appearances.
"I'm very excited that Coach Brock has invited me and my family back to the staff," said Bossard. "Even though I have been gone for 10 years, I've always loved Delaware. The opportunity to return to my alma mater was something I couldn't pass up. I've known Coach Brock for a long time and have always respected him as a coach, a recruiter, and as a person. I love what he is doing and I'm excited about where he is taking this program. I can't wait to get going and do whatever I can to help achieve that goal."
During his first year back in 2014, Bossard played a key a role in the development of first team All-Colonial Athletic Association wide receiver Michael Johnson, who ranked among the CAA leaders with 78 receptions for 830 yards. He ranks as one of UD's all-time great receivers.
A standout at Dover (Del.) High School, Bossard came north and quickly made a name for himself on head coach Tubby Raymond's squads, lettering for three seasons at cornerback in 1985-88 and earning the team's defensive Most Valuable Player award as a senior when he was a second team All-Yankee Conference selection and piled up 122 tackles. He earned his degree in agricultural business management from Delaware in 1989.
In addition to his two stints on the coaching staff at Bucknell, Bossard was on the staffs at Pittsburgh (2008-09) and Maryland (2005-07). At both places, he coached the wide receivers and returners while recruiting in the Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. areas.
While at Pitt, Bossard worked under former NFL coach Dave Wannstedt. Bossard had previously worked for Wannstedt in a pair of NFL summer coaching internships with the Chicago Bears in 1996-97. Pittsburgh posted a solid 19-7 record and appeared in a pair of bowl games during his tenure.
Two receivers Bossard coached were selected in the 2009 NFL Draft. Maryland's Darrius Heyward-Bey was a first-round pick of the Oakland Raiders, while Pittsburgh's Derek Kinder was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the seventh round. Heyward-Bey was a Freshman All-American under Bossard's watch in 2006. A year later he also helped Terps wideout and future NFLer LaQuan Williams earn Freshman All-America accolades.
Prior to his time at Maryland, Bossard spent three years coaching the receivers and returners and serving as passing game coordinator at Delaware in 2002-04 under K.C. Keeler. He helped lead the Blue Hens to the 2003 NCAA I-AA (FCS) national title with a 15-1 mark and led the 2004 squad to a berth in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. During Delaware's championship season, the Hens had three different receivers catch 50 passes or more.
Bossard was also a member of the Blue Hens' coaching staff from 1994-98 in the same capacity, leading Delaware to three consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances under Raymond, a College Football Hall of Fame member who won 300 career games for the Blue Hens. The 1997 squad went 12-2 and advanced to the national semifinals.
Bossard broke into the collegiate coaching ranks as a graduate assistant at Delaware in 1990. He then coached defensive backs at Morehouse College (1991) and West Chester (Pa.) University (spring 1992) before arriving at Bucknell for a two-year stint where he worked with the defensive backs and returners.
In 1999, Bossard coached the receivers at Army before moving on to a defensive back coaching position at Wyoming for two seasons in 2000-01.
Bossard and his wife, Kimber, have two sons, Xen (12) and Xyon (9).

And he walks the number nine hitter.
Pull him...he's done! Send him to the minors. Or worse, the Reds.
And he walks the number nine hitter.
Pull him...he's done! Send him to the minors. Or worse, the Reds.
Hit, up the middle single.
Classy reaction by the Twins fans, though, cheering him all the way.
And with a single by the next hitter, the no hitter also ends.
Domo Arigato, Here Comes Joey Votto
"I do what I want to do and say what I want to say."
--Bronson Arroyo
Johnny Vander Meer's record remains intact....
"I think were starting to get to the point where people are starting to get tired of this stretch of ball, Votto said. I think something needs to start changing and start going in a different direction. Im going to do my part to help make that change.
Single. Vander Meer lives on...
Small market fan... always hoping, but never expecting.
Buehrles Attempt at a Second No-No, Vander Meers Shot at a Third, and Caseys Psych Job
by Steven Goldman
Tonight, Mark Buehrle followed up his perfect game by retiring the first 17 Twins he faced, giving him a record 45 straight batters retired. This took him two outs into the sixth inning, at which point he walked Alexi Casilla. That put paid to the astronomically small chance that he would pitch consecutive perfect games, but the shot at a second straight no-hitter was still intact, though that quickly vanished as well when the next batter, Denard Span, singled. Johnny Vander Meer was safe.
On June 11 and 15, 1938, Vander Meer of the Reds became the only pitcher to throw a no-hitter in consecutive starts. He blanked the Boston Bees, managed by Casey Stengel, at Cincinnati in the former game, then headed to Ebbets Field and, no doubt aided by the fact that the game represented the first-ever night game in Brooklyn, no-hit the Dodgers.
What few remember is that, like Buhrle going for his second straight perfecto, Vander Meer made a convincing effort at a third straight no-hitter. On June 19, Vander Meers opponent was again the Bees, this time at their pitcher-friendly (pitcher-loving is more like it) home park, the Beehive. Pitching before an unusually large crowd that included Cy Young, Vander Meer kept the Bees off the bases for the first three innings. Managers often coached third base back then. As Casey walked across the field on his way to the coachs box in the bottomn of the fourth, he went past Vander Meer, already on the mound. John, were not trying to beat you, he said. Were just trying to get a base hit. Debs Garms was the next batter. He broke up the no-hitter. (The Bees lost anyway, 14-1.)
As Buehrle worked against the Twins, I kept wondering why someone didnt just say something. Sometimes you dont have to hit to break up a no-hitter; sometimes its better to be funny than good.

"Take care of Mom." Those were the words of a dying father to his son. A physician in Eastern New York who delivered nearly 10,000 babies, Dr. Leroy Seftel's final wishes were that his children stay in touch with his wife of 50 years, Patricia Louise Seftel.
"Stay connected," Josh Seftel recalls of Dad's final wishes regarding Mom. "Keep her connected."
Josh's high-tech solution has resulted in a fun, rewarding and entertaining experience for family, friends and people from around the world. In his Web series, "My Mom on Movies," he interviews his 75-year-old mother, Pat, a retired registered nurse and social worker, about the latest in entertainment.
Thousands of people have viewed and commented on the webisodes. And while Pat isn't getting recognized on the street yet, her son would like to see that change.
"I would get a big kick out of it if she became a celebrity from this, and I bet she would, too," Josh says.
Beyond offering a refreshing perspective on current events -- Pat's remarks teem with candor, wisdom and levity -- the videos show a winning, loving connection between two people in two very different worlds: Josh at his Manhattan-based production company, his mother seated at the kitchen table of her first-floor condo in Palmer Ranch.
"I believe that it is that odd but endearing connection that has caused the series to resonate with friends and fans," Josh says. "It has brought us closer together. I recommend that everyone do a Web series with their mother."
Of course, most of us can't produce episodes as deftly edited as the ones Josh creates for "My Mom on Movies."
His filmmaking accolades include an Emmy nomination for directing the premiere season of Bravo's groundbreaking series "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy." His feature-film directorial debut was the 2008 political satire "War Inc.," starring John Cusack, Ben Kingsley, Joan Cusack and Marisa Tomei.
Josh's work has also appeared on the Peabody Award-winning public radio program "This American Life," and on the Showtime cable series of the same name.
"He was supposed to be a doctor," Pat says. "My husband was a physician and Josh was always quite interested in medicine and excelled in the sciences, but when he went away to school he took college courses for pre-med. But his last year he did a film course and told us that's what he wanted to do.
"We thought he was making such a terrible mistake. Well, he was right and we were wrong. What a wonderful, marvelous career he has had."
Josh spent a weekend in Sarasota teaching his mother, a computer neophyte, how to work an iPad. Now she's an avid user of email who loves the photo messaging app Snapchat and the social word game Words with Friends.
She also loves "going out online and learning about things.
"It just opened up a whole new world to me," Pat says, talking about her iPad. "To be honest, when the kids gave me the iPad, I was afraid of it. I thought I wouldn't be able to do it or I would break it. I thought they were wasting their money, but they knew much better. Now, I don't know what I would do without it."
Once Mom befriended the tablet, Josh persuaded her to use its video chat feature, FaceTime. The filmmaker soon realized that there was something special about these interactions between mother and son. He started filming the conversations so that others could witness the humorous and poignant cross-generational experience.
"I didn't understand what it was all about," Pat says, "but I thought it could be fun and something we could do together as a family."
Josh has interviewed Pat for 10 episodes of "My Mom on Movies." The videos run two to three minutes long, and are interspersed with news and film clips related to the topics of discussion. The actual conversations typically run for five or 10 minutes. "My Mom on Movies" requires a significant amount of skilled labor and doesn't exactly turn a profit.
"No, the opposite," Josh says with a laugh. "It's just fun. We just squeeze it in when we have down time in between other projects. It's more like a hobby."
Josh uses the latest pop culture events as a springboard for straying into unexpected areas.
They have covered S&M in "50 Shades of Grey" (Mom prefers a 'nice hug'); "Girls" creator and star Lena Dunham's tattoos (Mom is concerned about her Jewish burial prospects); and Denzel Washington's fading looks (the episode prompted Mom to issue an apology to Washington in a separate video).
"Sometimes I laugh out loud at what I said," Pat says. "I get a little self-conscious -- oh jeez, I should have gone to the beauty parlor or did something with my hair -- but all in all, I just think it's fun and I enjoy doing them."
She added, "I look forward to that little sound on the iPad when he's calling to do one."
When her husband died in the summer of 2009, the Seftels had recently become residents of Sarasota. In the years that followed, she has maintained strong relationships with her friends and a social schedule that would make most people envious. Pat is a regular at Burns Court Cinemas, takes in the Sarasota Opera and dines at Darwin's on 4th.
But she enjoys nothing as much as spending time with her family.
"To have three wonderful, healthy, active, loving children is the greatest gift that anyone could have," Pat says when asked about the perfect present for Mother's Day. "And I have it."
Her children visit as often as possible, but all three live many miles away. Oldest daughter Laura Seftel works as an art therapist in Massachusetts. Suzanne Seftel Glassman, a former lawyer turned portrait photographer, lives in Maryland. There are grandchildren, too. Pat uses her iPad to keep in touch with all.
"It has made all our relationships with her that much closer," Josh says.
She gave the New York filmmaker life. Now he's giving his Sarasota mom an Internet fan base.
"Take care of Mom." Those were the words of a dying father to his son. A physician in Eastern New York who delivered nearly 10,000 babies, Dr. Leroy Seftel's final wishes were that his children stay in touch with his wife of 50 years, Patricia Louise Seftel.

Craig Anderson made 31 saves and Kyle Turris scored twice as the Ottawa Senators blanked the Florida Panthers, 4-0, at Scotiabank Place.
Jim O'Brien and Jakob Silfverberg also lit the lamp for the Senators, who improved to 2-0 on the season following a 4-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday.
"My job is just to look forward and give the team an opportunity to win," Anderson said. "I just have to worry about what I can do to make the team better and keep striving to make myself better."
Jose Theodore allowed all four goals on 37 shots as the Panthers were trying to open the season with back-to-back wins for the first time since the 2005-06 campaign.
"Obviously we have to play a better road game and get a more well-rounded effort," Panthers head coach Kevin Dineen said.
Each team failed to convert on a power play over the opening 10 minutes of action before Ottawa struck first while on the man advantage when Turris received a feed from Patrick Wiercioch in the left circle and one-timed the puck past Theodore at the 10:42 mark.
The Senators had a chance to add to their lead when Florida's Jack Skille was whistled for tripping with 3:18 left in the first period, but they could not capitalize on the opportunity and it remained a 1-0 game heading into the second period.
Ottawa, however, was able to add to its lead with the lone goal of the second, as Turris broke down the ice on a rush and set up to the right of Theodore before redirecting a Guillaume Latendresse pass from the left boards into the twine 12:07 into the middle stanza.
Anderson made 12 stops in the second period as Ottawa killed off a pair of power plays to keep the Panthers off the board, and then made 15 saves in the third to complete the shutout.
O'Brien fired a wrister past Theodore from the slot after grabbing a loose puck in the offensive zone with 2:25 to play, and Silfverberg ripped a quick shot from the right circle inside the far post for his first career goal with 1:04 remaining in the game to finalize the scoring.
Game Notes
It was the 20th shutout for Anderson in his career ... Florida went 0-for-3 on the power play ... The Senators were 1-for-4 on the man advantage ... The Panthers play at Montreal on Tuesday before hosting Ottawa on Thursday.

The full-fat Backland FR for deep storm days, inspired by the former Automatic 117.
Blends an ABS sidewall construction with a revolutionary across-the-ski (horizontal) rocker to add 10% more surface area in tip and tail. This delivers less tip deflection and better tracking through chop and crud, without adding any swing weight – making it the best design yet for powder.
An ultra-lightweight carbon insert that runs the length of the ski like a stabilizing backbone. This provides exceptional agility and edge hold with no extra weight.
Made from Poplar wood, this core optimizes the ski's weight without sacrificing any shock absorption or stability.
The Atomic Backland FR 117 is the fattest Backland FR – our new series of freeride powder chargers. Backland FR is the successor to our Automatic series created with freeride pros Sage Cattabriga-Alosa and Dana Flahr. This top model has a 117 mm waist, Carbon Backbone and Powder Rocker profile. It also now features revolutionary HRZN Tech in the tip for more surface area and even better floatation. It's stiff enough for aggressive skiing on deep storm days or shredding Big Mountain spines. It delivers on harder snow thanks to the camber underfoot. And in comparison to Automatic, we've made Backland FR even lighter without sacrificing stability, thanks to a Light Woodcore. This also makes them awesome Freeride Touring skis: great for reaching those best spots – boot packing or skinning.

Bulldogs Drop Heartbreaker to Utah State in Overtime, 48-41
Nov. 17, 2012
Final Stats | Quotes | Notes | Photo Gallery
RUSTON, La. (AP) - Utah State had lost its offense, its 24-point lead and any semblance of momentum.
Kerwynn Williams and the Aggies' defense made sure they didn't lose the game.
Williams rushed for a 4-yard touchdown in overtime and Utah State stopped Louisiana Tech's prolific offense in just four plays to lift the Aggies to a 48-41 overtime victory over the No. 19 Bulldogs on Saturday.
"We knew victory was close if we wanted it," Williams said. "We just had to go out there and take it from them. That was a great team we played tonight and they battled back. We knew we'd have to take this one."
The win gives Utah State (9-2, 5-0 Western Athletic Conference) at least a share of the conference title, with only lowly Idaho left on the schedule.
And boy, did the Aggies have to earn it.
Keeton threw for 340 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for 121 yards and two touchdowns for Utah State (9-2, 5-0), which recovered to win despite giving up what looked like an insurmountable lead.
Williams added 162 rushing yards and two touchdowns. He also caught four passes for 125 yards and a touchdown.
His 1-yard touchdown run gave Utah State a 41-17 with 1:00 minute remaining in the third quarter.
It looked like a backbreaker. But Louisiana Tech roared back, tying the game on Matt Nelson's 32-yard field goal as time expired in regulation.
"Things can go wrong at times, but that can't determine the rest of the game," Williams said. "You have to keep your head on straight and power through."
The Aggies scored on their first offensive play - an 86-yard touchdown after a screen pass from Keeton to Williams - and racked up 646 yards of total offense.
Louisiana Tech's Colby Cameron threw an interception late in the second quarter, snapping his NCAA-record streak of 445 pass attempts without an interception.
Cameron completed 35 of 60 passes for 396 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.
Utah State improved its record to 2-50 against nationally-ranked teams, including a 1-39 mark on the road.
Keeton, a 6-foot-1, 200-pound sophomore from Houston, made several big plays with his arm and his feet. The Aggies needed all of them.
"When you have an athletic quarterback who is smart and can throw the ball, it's a vicious weapon," Utah State coach Gary Anderson said. "This team believes in Chucky. The coaching staff believes in Chucky. He's doing great things and will continue to do great things."
Even with the heroics by Keeton and Williams, it looked like this one might slip away from the Aggies.
But Louisiana Tech's overtime drive fell short, with a fourth-and-3 run falling well short of the first down marker.
"Maybe we were a little emotionally done at that point," Louisiana Tech coach Sonny Dykes said. "We battled so much to get back in - I don't know if we ran out of gas down the stretch."
Utah State continues an excellent stretch of football under Anderson, who is in his fourth season. The Aggies have won five straight and 14 of 17 dating back to last season - the best run for the program since the early 1970s.
Next to Louisiana Tech's shocking offensive numbers this season, Utah State's looked pedestrian. The Bulldogs came into the game among the nation's best in nearly every offensive category, averaging 53.4 points and 576.5 yards per game.
Utah State frustrated Louisiana Tech's offense at first.
"We felt like other teams weren't getting in their face, especially when they started scoring," Utah State cornerback Will Davis said.
He was the one who picked off the pass to end Cameron's completion streak.
"We just felt that we had to get aggressive," Davis said. "The refs let everybody play and it was an aggressive game. They score a lot of points and they went off in the second half, but we were fighting the whole time."
The Aggies led 14-0 at the end of the first quarter and had a 245-40 advantage in total yards.
The two teams traded field goals in the second quarter and Utah State took a 17-3 lead into halftime. The Bulldogs had a chance to score a touchdown late in the second quarter, but Cameron's pass was intercepted by Davis in the end zone.
Utah State struck again on the first drive after halftime. A big 43-yard pass from Keeton to Chuck Jacobs set up Keeton's 13-yard touchdown run one play later, and the Aggies took a 24-3 lead, which was stretched to 27-3 minutes later after a 30-yard field goal.
Louisiana Tech's offense finally woke up midway through the third quarter with an 11-play, 78-yard drive that ended with Kenneth Dixon's 2-yard touchdown run and pulled the Bulldogs within 27-10.
Dixon finished with 113 rushing yards and two touchdowns.
From that point, the Bulldogs were moving the ball fine. They just couldn't stop the Aggies.
Louisiana Tech came into the game ranked No. 20 in the latest Bowl Championship Series standings and hoped to be the latest outsider to crash the BCS party. Now the Bulldogs probably won't even win the WAC title.
If anything, it was the Aggies who looked like they were worthy of national consideration.

Long March To The Cloud
As tech industry CEOs go, VMware's Paul Maritz is as unassuming as they come. In lieu of bombastic statements, Maritz exudes a quiet yet steely resolve, and in this way he's the perfect CEO for a company that has become more synonymous with virtualization than any other company on the planet.
VMware is now trying parlay success in virtualization into cloud computing dominance. VMware's mid-July cloud infrastructure stack update is a major inflection point that is putting it into perspective for customers and partners, and Maritz is helping to defog the parts of the strategy that still aren't clear.
The march to the cloud won't happen overnight, but Maritz is sending a strong message that the road is now paved and there are no technical barriers standing in the way. The following comments are culled from a recent sit-down interview CRN conducted with the VMware CEO, as well as from VMware's cloud launch event in San Francisco.

postgresql-plparrot - A PostgreSQL procedural language for the Parrot virtual machine… more info»
PL/Parrot 0.04 ============== PL/Parrot is a PostgreSQL procedural language for the Parrot virtual machine. LICENSE INFORMATION =================== This code is distributed under the terms of the Artistic License 2.0. For more details, see the full text of the license in the file LICENSE. Installation ============ For the impatient, to install PL/Parrot into a PostgreSQL database, just do this: make make install make installcheck If you get an error such as: Makefile:13: /usr/lib/postgresql/8.4/lib/pgxs/src/makefiles/pgxs.mk: No such file or directory make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/postgresql/8.4/lib/pgxs/src/makefiles/pgxs.mk'. Stop. then you probably installed postgres from a debian package. You need to install the postgresql-server-dev-X package, where X is your version of PostgreSQL. For example: sudo apt-get install postgresql-server-dev-8.4 To run the tests with pg_prove you should create the plpgsql language in your database. The default database name is your current username, so this should work: createlang plpgsql $USER make test If you encounter an error such as: "Makefile", line 8: Need an operator You need to use GNU make, which may well be installed on your system as 'gmake': gmake gmake install gmake installcheck If you encounter an error such as: make: pg_config: Command not found Be sure that you have `pg_config` installed and in your path. If you used a package management system such as RPM to install PostgreSQL, be sure that the `-devel` package is also installed. If necessary, add the path to `pg_config` to your `$PATH` environment variable: env PATH=$PATH:/path/to/pgsql/bin \ make && make install && make installcheck And finally, if all that fails, copy the entire distribution directory to the `contrib/` subdirectory of the PostgreSQL source tree and try it there without the `$USE_PGXS` variable: make NO_PGXS=1 make install NO_PGXS=1 make installcheck NO_PGXS=1 If you encounter an error such as: ERROR: must be owner of database regression You need to run the test suite using a super user, such as the default "postgres" super user: make installcheck PGUSER=postgres Testing PL/Parrot with PL/Parrot ------------------------ In addition to the PostgreSQL-standard `installcheck` target, the `test` target uses the `pg_prove` Perl program to do its testing, which requires TAP::Harness, included in [Test::Harness](http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-Harness/ "Test::Harness on CPAN") 3.x. You'll need to make sure that you use a database with PL/pgSQL loaded, or else the tests won't work. `pg_prove` supports a number of environment variables that you might need to use, including all the usual PostgreSQL client environment variables: * `$PGDATABASE` * `$PGHOST` * `$PGPORT` * `$PGUSER` You can use it to run the test suite as a database super user like so: make test PGUSER=postgres Of course, if you're running the tests from the `contrib/` directory, you should add the `NO_PGXS` variable. Adding PL/Parrot to a Database -------------------------- Once PL/Parrot has been built and tested, you can install it into a PL/pgSQL-enabled database: psql -d dbname -f plparrot.sql If you want PL/Parrot to be available to all new databases, install it into the "template1" database: psql -d template1 -f plparrot.sql The `plparrot.sql script will also be installed in the `contrib` directory under the directory output by `pg_config --sharedir`. So you can always do this: psql -d template1 -f `pg_config --sharedir`/contrib/plparrot.sql

Two Gaffney firefighters will make their debut on national television Feb. 17 on CBS's hit reality show, "Amazing Race."
Two Gaffney firefighters will make their debut on national television Feb. 17 on CBS's hit reality show, "Amazing Race."
Matthew Davis and Daniel Moss, both 25, are best friends. They joined the Grassy Pond Volunteer Fire Department together in 2004, and both were hired by the city as professional firefighters in 2007.
Davis became an avid fan of "Amazing Race" several years ago.
"They go all around the world, and they are in these stressful situations and it's competitive. It was an all-around fun show," he said.
Davis introduced the show to Moss when they were working the same shifts at the fire station. The reality series pits 11 teams of two against each other as they race around the globe overcoming obstacles at each location and getting clues. Those who fall behind in their challenges are eliminated.
As they watched, Davis and Moss said they found themselves telling each other, "We could do that." Their video application depicted their small-town roots, included a shot of Gaffney's famous giant peach water tower, and their firefighter toughness.
"Who we are is what you're going to see," Davis said. "I guess it was just our Southern accents that won them over."
They only found out they would be on the show a month before filming started. Standing at the starting line, Moss said he was struck by how "ordinary" everyone was.
"When we first got there, we're looking at the other teams. When you watch it on TV the people don't seem real, but we were just us and the people were friendly. It was nice to know they were just like us," he said.
When they started out, the small-town friends were a little concerned about their ability to communicate while attempting their international challenges, but it was the desire to see new places that Davis said drew them in.
"Getting to see these places people like me and Daniel thought we'd never get to see" was the motivation, according to Davis.
They were so busy preparing and participating in the race that Davis and Moss said it's just starting to sink in that within a week they are going to be watched by about 10 million people. On the big day, they said they plan to gather their family and friends so they can watch the show together. Even those closest to the pair won't have any insider information.
"They are going to be just as surprised (as all the other viewers)," Davis said. "When we left, we told our parents, even if we win a million dollars, we're not going to tell you anything. We want them to experience it the same way we did and the same way everyone else will when they watch the show."
The pair can't talk about their experiences on "Amazing Race," including any of their challenges or information about their teammates. Moss, however, said they were able to use some of the skills they honed as firefighters.
"I think being firefighters really did help us out," he said. "We're used to being up all night and weird sleep schedules and carrying heavy air packs on our backs. We're used to sleeping in weird places like airports."
