Luka Magnotta, who is suspected of cannibalism, flew from Canada to France a day after placing gruesome footage of the murder on the internet.Flew? Vampire or zombie? You decide. Anyway, there's that one. There's the naked-in-broad-daylight face-eater. That's Rudy Eugene, not on the lam. Shot dead by the police. And then there's the other one:
Authorities say Alex Kinyua, 21, admitted using a knife to kill and carve up Kujoe Bonsafo Agyei-Kodie, 37, before eating his heart and parts of his brain....I wonder if the sane people who engage in racial politics bear some responsibility for the paranoia that arises in weak minds? In fact, I wonder if the people who delight in japing about a zombie uprising bear some responsibility for the crazy people who actually do try to eat brains?
In February, Kinyua posted a question on Facebook, asking fellow students at historically black colleges and universities if they were "strong enough to endure ritual HBCU mass human sacrifices around the country and still be able to function as human beings?"
He referred to the tragic shootings at Virginia Tech and "other past university killings around the country" and warned "ethnic cleansing is the policy, strategy and tactics that will affect you, directly or indirectly in the coming months"....
I'm thinking back to the clumsy efforts to assign blame for the Tucson massacre. Some people are insane. But why do they act out their insanity in the particular way that they do? What signals do they pick up and distort? You can't really blame the sane people who talk and distort and lie about things as they operate more or less competently in this place called reality that most of us inhabit. And yet... why are we hearing so much about cannibals these days?
ADDED: I crossed out "Chinese" in the first paragraph of this post. The headline had a few too many words in it for me to absorb. The victim was Chinese, not the cannibal.

February 2011
In the U.S. more than 5,000 people are diagnosed with anal cancer each year. More women than men are diagnosed with it, and people living with HIV experience higher rates of the cancer, especially gay and bisexual men who have had anal sex. Treatment is challenging and can include surgery, radiation or chemotherapy.
The Gardisil vaccine is currently used to prevent certain diseases caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) in women, such as genital warts, abnormal skin cells of the cervix and cervical cancer. With this recent change, the vaccine has now been approved by the FDA to prevent abnormal skin cells of the anus and anal cancer in men and women. This applies to people 9-26 years of age before sexual activity has started.
Gardisil was studied in a large international study of gay men, who have high rates of anal cancer. Results showed a 78% reduction in cases of HPV-related abnormal skin cells of the anus. Although only men were studied, women are included in the change since the disease is the same in both sexes. Both men and women who are at higher risk for anal cancer, including gay men and HIV-positive men and women, should continue routine screening even after getting the vaccine.
However, despite this change by the FDA, the CDC still states the vaccine as being optional for boys and young men, which means that the vaccine cost will likely not be covered by public or private health insurance. More advocacy is taking place to encourage theCDC to change its position.

On Memorial Day, the Veterans of Foreign Wars gave Sen. Jim Honeyford two awards, both for his support of veterans' issues.
"It's always an honor to receive awards," said Honeyford (R-Sunnyside). "But to receive them from veterans who embody the best things about America - sacrifice, selflessness, hard work and dedication - is an unforgettable experience.
"If anyone deserves recognition, it is our veterans for their commitment to keeping us free. Anytime I can stand up as a legislator and support our state's veterans, I am eager to do it," Honeyford said.
The first award was presented to Honeyford for "...meritorious and distinguished service in furthering the aims and ideals of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States."
The second reads, "Veterans of Foreign Award of the United States, Americanism Award, presented to Sen. Jim Honeyford for your dedication and support of the veterans of VFW Post 3482, Sunnyside, Washington. For more than a decade you have been there, whether in the forefront or in the background supporting our Post in all that we do to bring honor to our local veterans. We thank you not only for your support of our veterans, but also for the hard work that you do for all of our citizens."
Honeyford has long been supportive of veterans' causes and issues. In the 2006 session, he supported a House bill that would have forced protesters at military funerals to stay back from the proceedings. Although the bill did not pass, Honeyford has committed to working toward its passage in 2007.
Last month, Honeyford took on the Department of Corrections over its "diversity calendar" that gave equal weight to Veterans' Day and the birthdays of Ho Chi Minh, Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin and Imperial Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto (the mastermind of the Pearl Harbor attacks). Veterans expressed outrage over the calendar, and Honeyford wrote the agency director on their behalf.
Honeyford was elected to the House of Representatives in 1994 and transitioned to the Senate in 1998. He spent 28 years in education before joining the Legislature and currently owns and operates a farm near Sunnyside.

Politicizing Pain: The War on Marijuana
by Rep Ron Paul
K.K. Forss does not claim medical marijuana solves all his problems. His pain from a ruptured disc in his neck is debilitating. He is unable to go to work or to the First Baptist Church he used to attend because of the pain and muscle spasms. Taxpayers through Medicare spend over $18,000 a year on his various medications.
Half of those drugs are strong narcotics. The other half address the various side-effects brought on by the first half, such as nausea, heartburn, heart palpitations, difficulty sleeping, and muscle spasms.Details

Another yummy recipe from those old newspapers I'm fond of perusing. Submitted by a Mrs. Harold Woods, it was published on February 2, 1967 in The Emporia Gazette in Nell Hill Amburn's Cooking Corner, a column she wrote for several years.
Those familiar with the history of American newspapers know the Gazette as the small-town paper edited for many years by William Allen White, for whom the University of Kansas School of Journalism is named. Or learned it from watching the movie "Mary White", about the tragic death of his beloved teenage daughter.
Mrs. Woods called this recipe a "pudding", but I can attest it's more cake than pudding. The rum-flavored sauce is also a wonderful topping for cinnamon ice cream.
Apple "Pudding" with Rum Sauce
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter (one stick + half of another)
2 eggs
4 cups apples, peeled and diced
1 cup walnuts or pecans OR 1 cup raisins
2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
Cream butter and sugar, Add all other ingredients. Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan on bottom only. Bake at 350 degrees around 45 minutes. [Note: the toothpick test will not be an accurate gauge of doneness.] Serve with the following:
Rum Sauce
3/4 cup sugar
2 Tbsp flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 cup boiling water
4 Tbsp (one stick) butter
1 Tbsp rum flavoring
Combine all ingredients except flavoring in saucepan. Cook, stirring occasionally, on medium heat until thick. Remove from heat; add flavoring. Serve either hot or cold.

Emacs mode for Gerris files
Well, not really but something approaching. Add the following to your
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.gfs\\'" . shell-script-mode) auto-mode-alist))
Generating several movies on-the-fly
While it is fairly simple to use the scripting mode of gfsview and unix pipes to generate a movie on the fly from a running simulation, how does one generate several movies simultaneously?
Using named unix fifos and the
tee utility it is fairly easy too. For example if one has three gfsview files called
closeup.gfv and
overview.gfv and want to generate the three corresponding movies
closeup.mpg and
overview.mpg in one go, one could use the following script:
#!/bin/sh movies="wide closeup overview" rm -f $movies mkfifo $movies gerris3D mysimulation.gfs | tee $movies > /dev/null & for movie in $movies; do gfsview-batch3D $movie.gfv < $movie | ppm2mpeg > $movie.mpg & done
of course the simulation file
mysimulation.gfs should contain lines looking like:
OutputSimulation { istep = 10 } stdout EventScript { istep = 10 } { echo "Save stdout { width = 1024 height = 768 }" }

Roc Oil (China) Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of ROC and the operator of the exploration wells within the WZ6-12 and WZ12-8 West Oil Field Development areas, advises that the WZ6-12-A7 deviated step-out exploration well, designed to test the Sliver fault segment and the Liushagang footwall exploration prospects, reached a total depth (TD) of 2,658 metres (2,211 metres TVD) in the Liushagang formation on 11 November. The well was drilled by the HYSY 931 drilling rig located over the WZ6-12 Wellhead Platform.
The WZ6-12-A7 is the third successful well in a three well exploration programme. This well intersected a total of 10.4 metres (TVD) of net oil pay in the Weizhou formation associated with the Sliver prospect and 7" production liner is being run to enable future completion and tie-in for production. Oil samples and pressure data have been gathered to assist with determination of the extent of the oil column.
The well also encountered 79 metres (TVD) of net water wet sands with oil shows in the underlying Liushagang formation with up-dip potential remaining.
The exploration discoveries will be integrated into the current Beibu Development Project and the well results will be utilized to further optimize the development wells. In view of the positive exploration results, the WZ 6-12 area is now being re-examined for additional exploration potential. At least two additional development wells will be required for the WZ6-12 North field development. Targeted first oil production of the Beibu programme remains early 2013.
The HYSY 931 Rig (operated by CNOOC) will commence drilling the development wells over the WZ6-12 Wellhead Platform shortly, following suspension of the WZ6-12-A7 well. Provision has been made in the Beibu production facilities design to provide the flexibility to produce the new oil zones discovered during the exploration drilling programme.
Commenting on the well results, ROC's CEO Mr Alan Linn said:
"ROC is very pleased with the successful completion of the Beibu Gulf exploration drilling programme and with the discovery of oil pay in one of the target objectives in the A-7 well. The successful and safe drilling of these wells ahead of schedule and under budget, typifies the strong and successful working relationship between the JV partners – CNOOC, COSL1 and ROC. This will also ensure the efficient integration of the discoveries into the overall development plan, delivering incremental reserves and additional production to the project."
Participating interests* in the Beibu Gulf exploration programme are:
Roc Oil (China) Company 40%
Horizon Oil (Beibu) Ltd 30%
Horizon Oil (Nanhai) LLC 25%
Oil Australia Pty Ltd (Majuko Corp) 5%
*For exploration drilling, the above interests are subject to CNOOC election of participation of up to 51% in any discoveries made

BEIJING (AP) — The number of dead pigs retrieved from waters in and near China's financial hub of Shanghai has reached nearly 12,000.
The upstream city of Jiaxing — where small hog farms are prevalent — reported Friday night that it had recovered 3,601 dead pigs from its streams, according to state media.
In Shanghai, authorities have retrieved 8,354 swollen and rotting carcasses from Huangpu river, which provides the metropolis with drinking water. The dead pigs are largely believed to be from Jiaxing, but Zhao Shumei, a deputy vice mayor, said it was inconclusive to say all the pigs were from her city.
Both Shanghai, a city of 23 million people, and Jiaxing say there's been no swine epidemic and that tap water remains safe, but local residents remain worried about water contamination.

LOS ANGELES — Sheriff's deputies evicted people from an urban community garden to make room for a warehouse Tuesday, touching off a furious protest in which actress Daryl Hannah and others climbed into a walnut tree or chained themselves to concrete-filled barrels. More than 40 people were arrested.
Authorities cut away branches and used a fire truck to bring down the "Splash" actress and another tree-sitter, who raised their fists as they were removed. Hannah was arrested.
"I'm very confident this is the morally right thing to do, to take a principled stand in solidarity with the farmers," she said by cell phone before the fire truck raised officers into the tree.
About 350 people grow produce and flowers on the 14 acres of privately owned land, in an inner-city area surrounded by warehouses and railroad tracks. The garden has been there for more than a decade, but the landowner, Ralph Horowitz, now wants to replace it with a warehouse.
At daybreak Tuesday, 120 deputies, some with batons and riot helmets, showed up to serve an eviction order that a judge signed last month. Deputies used saws to cut down the chain-link fence around the site.
Dozens of protesters chanted, "We're here and we're not going to leave!" in Spanish, blew whistles and blocked traffic in the surrounding streets. Protesters linked arms and sat on the tracks. Officers dragged some protesters away.
Inside the garden, firefighters had to cut free protesters who had chained themselves to the walnut tree, barrels filled with concrete and a picnic table. Deputies slowly pulled people out from among the avocados, sunflowers and other produce.
Seventeen arrests were made inside the garden, sheriff's spokeswoman Kerri Webb said. An additional 25 to 30 people demonstrating outside were arrested by city police.
The garden was finally cleared just after noon.
Horowitz noted that the farmers were squatting on land zoned for warehouses and factories. The landowner said in a telephone interview that he was paying $25,000 to $30,000 a month in mortgage and other land costs.
"We've made, in the last three years, enough of a donation to those farmers," he said. "I just want my land back." Video: Actress arrested in LA protest

Horowitz accused the farmers of ingratitude, saying they had sued him and their supporters had picketed his home and office.
"I feel that the gardeners have been on the land for 14 years, almost 15 years for free. After 15 years, you say thank you," he said.
Horowitz also said the city had provided other locations for the gardeners, and most had left. In a statement, City Councilwoman Jan Perry also said many gardeners had moved to new garden sites.
The effort to save the farm attracted the support of numerous activists and celebrities, including Hannah, environmental activist John Quigley, country singer Willie Nelson, actor Danny Glover, folk singer Joan Baez and tree sitter Julia Butterfly Hill.
Supporters moved onto the property full-time in mid-May and occupied the walnut tree after the judge issued the eviction order.

Nice new Grantland article on Michigan's pick-and-roll offense--and other article links.
a well written article.
I'm hesitant to agree with them that GRIII isn't as big of an outside threat as THJ. I know, percentages and all that, but THJ is so streaky.
is always there. You need to guard him or he'll carry the team just like he did against OSU. Can't leave him wide open because he'll hit it even on a slump.
And he is a pretty clutch shooter IMO. His freshman year he nailed huge ones for us the whole second half. Stepped up big against OSU this year and hit some big shots against Kansas too
Tim also hit the should-have-been-game-winner at Wisconsin.
for prepration in the NBA. They love to spread out and do a lot of pick and roll. Trey Burke is one of the best, if not the best at it which is why he's highly coveted for this reason. Damion Lillard got drafted high because of his ability to run pick and roll at Weber State.
Trey generally makes great decisions on pick and roll and doesn't turn the ball over a ton. He is a threat at 3 pt that they can't go under. Once he gets by them, he likes to slow down then explode to the hoops. Or he slows down, boxing out his defender then make a midrange jumper. Or he finds the roll man or open shooter for an easy points.
This is a PG's dream offense in terms of running the offense and do a lot of pick and rolls.
Could it be that Michigan is going to become known as "PG U?"
to be known as a PG U. Darius Morris, Trey Burke and maybe Derrick Walton? If the success continues, the top PG prospects are going to notice Michigan for producing quality PG. It is a good thing because great PG play is extremely important for a team success for obvious reasons.
...is master the pickle roll, and there's no stopping us.
Is that some kind of inside joke?
It's from those AT&T commercials, which I admittedly enjoy.
I find those ATT commercials kind of funny. The guy is excellent at dead pan.
It definitely works
It's when you kick a pickle and it splatters all over the other person.
from West Virginia? Brilliant!
If we were basebal players, batting .500 would be awesome
The clip in which McGary sets the pick, receives the ball, and rolls to the hoop is one of the clearest examples of a "pick and roll" that I've seen. Thanks for posting this.
I like that clip in which he sets 3 screens in like a 7-second span. he's just digging space out of the defense. almost like a giant puppy.
Anyone notice that McGary doesn't actually "roll" in the traditional sense after he sets the pick?
For example, if he sets a left pick on Trey's guy, a traditional roll would entail his planting his right foot, effectively pinning that guy to his back, before heading toward the basket. Instead, hHe tends to just run in an arc toward the basket without pivoting.
Perhaps this is more effective since bigs started hedging and there's not a lot of need to keep the guy defending the point behind you.

Within the MODYAS project (LuFo III) we provided models, methods and tools for joint synthesis of structural & load control function parameters to achieve lower loads, lower weight, higher comfort, higher crew & passenger safety and lower costs. This implies an interdisciplinary cooperation between structure, aeroelastics, loads, flight mechanics, handling quality and mass properties.
Within the DLR-Project Wetter und Fliegen and the LuFo Project InnoLA (part of the FTEG project) we will develop and flight test control functions for flight in disturbed atmosphere (gust, turbulence, wake vortices).
Integration of New Sensors and Control Surfaces in Active Loads Control Systems
Within the European 5th framework project AWIATOR we were involved in the development and flight testing of new control strategies for Gust Load Alleviation with the focus on the usage of new direct-lift control devices (mini-TEDs) and a forward-looking LIDAR sensor for determination of wind turbulences ahead of the aircraft.
Furthermore, we developed algorithms enabling the identification of flexibility effects on the outer wing within a manoeuvre loads context based on the Maximum Likelihood method.
Active Loads Control for Innovative Aircraft Configurations
Following the ACARE vision 2020, aircraft must become significantly cleaner and quieter so that the aeronautics sector's contribution to a sustainable environment is widely recognised. Significant improvements in aircraft efficiency and noise can be only achieved with major changes in aircraft configuration.
Within the European projects ACFA 2020, JTI-SFWA and the DLR Project iGreen, innovative configurations like a Blended Wing Body Aircraft, adaptive wings and Ultra Green Transport Aircrafts are investigated and robust, fault tolerant loads control functions are designed for structural weight reduction, comfort improvement and vibration reduction.

Kolo Toure has had a couple of weeks to forget. First, his suicidal cross-field pass gifted West Bromwich Albion a late equaliser against Liverpool at The Hawthorns, then the defender turned into his own net in hilarious fashion against Fulham in midweek.
The Ivorian's reputation for an unforced error has preceded him wherever he's played, but that hasn't prevented Toure from turning out for some of the Premier League's biggest and best clubs.
Starting at Arsenal in 2002, the 32-year-old moved to Manchester City seven years later, before completing a free transfer switch to Anfield last summer.
However, his latest entry into a growing catalogue of high-profile mistakes, means he maintains his place on the list of most notorious blunder boys in England's top-flight.
Toure's blushes were saved thanks to a 90th minute penalty by Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard on Wednesday night, to earn Brendan Rodgers's side a valuable 3-2 victory at Craven Cottage.
But, GiveMeSport is unwilling to let the veteran centre-back off the hook quite so easily, so in tribute to the calamitous star, here's five of the most error-prone players to have played in the Premier League.

Will We Pass 10 Billion?
Posted by Sharon Astyk on May 6, 2011
The fact that the mid-range projections for world population rose by nearly a billion people this week should have garnered a lot more attention than it did. The UN offers biennial updates of its world population estimates, and for the last few years, the mid-range (ie, the most likely scenario) has suggested that the world…

1. NO acoustics. They are boring. They hurt. Why torture the kid?
2. Spend 275 on a guitar and 25 on an amp. why? simple. The fact is that there are guitars out there in the mid to high 200's that are actually REALLY GOOD guitars. good enough that even a great, serious player like myself would not complain finishing up my life owning just that one if i was forced to. this is where you need to put the bulk of your $$$ into. doesnt it make sense to wind up with a guitar that is great to start out on PLUS, if he becomes serious, it is still good enough to keep around as a second/backup guitar? as for an amp, at this price range you cant have any amp that will be loud enough to play in a band/gig with so you just need to have one to get room volume to practice and play along with records to. if he becomes serious, then buy a real amp in a year or two. if you spend 300 on a guitar and amp evenly you will have a crappy amp and guitar down the line.
3. ok, guitars. Timmy was right on the money with :
1. new fender classic vibe series - plays like butter, pretty, feels great, sounds good too under 300
2. used fender mexican strat - 300 ....maybe under. excellent guitars even if you are a pro. worth looking for
3. new fender squire telecasters at $179. i own one. it holds tune perfect, plays like butter, sounds and feels real nice. UNREAL value. Ive played gigs with it with my collection of ($1500-$2200) les paul(s) as backups behind me on stands just because it feels good and its fun.
4. Used ESP LTD MH-250, 275, 300 and up. OK, no joke. These LTDs were made in indonesia and REEK of quality. I own 2. one i paid 159 bucks for at a pawn shop and it included a case and the previous owner upgraded to emg 81/85 active pickups. My other 250 i paid $200 used but it was stock. These guitars play and feel like they should be $1500 guitars. I LOVE them. SUPER fast neck-through-body design. If you can find one and he like it, but it. as a matter of fact i was in guitar center in tampa and there are 2 used ones for like 300ish. gorgeous....i cant say enough.
Ibanez and Jackson make a slew of really nice 250-300 guitars that play, feel,sound good that can be kept forever
Heres whats NOT TO BUY:
Epiphones - just the worst. they look good. thats about it. nothing says "im a sucker...and im broke" more than an epiphone. AVOID. Just because they look good doesnt mean they are good. UGH. Maybe the WORST playing guitars ever build. I just dont understand why they are popular.
schecter- ugh.
brownsville - seriously?
anything else - why bother? i already gave you tons of options above
I have a little practice amp thats doing nothing. you can have it. i work in dade city. the best thing u can do is spend it all on a USED guitar. Guitar center in tampa has a ton of good stuff. dont mail order anything....thats nutty. good luck

No matter how severe the weather event, you have always been able to count on the older generation being quick to pooh pooh it:

Champagne and other sparklers are an essential over the festive season. We look for the best available.
"What is your host's purpose in having a party?" asked political satirist P.J. O'Rourke. "Surely not for you to enjoy yourself; if that were their sole purpose, they'd have simply sent champagne and women over to your place by taxi."
Despite his cynical take on social gatherings, his observations do acknowledge that a drop of decent bubbly can play its part in helping one have a good time. I've tasted through dozens that are currently available and have selected the ones that should provide maximum enjoyment for the season's festivities.
Champagne Gardet Brut Tradition NV $49.99/$39.99
When it comes to Champagne, the approach of Christmas heralds some very smart deals indeed. However, this beauty - with its rich yeasty savoury notes juxtaposed with crisp grapefruit - is keenly priced all year round and just under $40 over the festive season. It's spent a longer time in bottle, boasts an older base wine and has a higher proportion of higher quality grapes than many a cheaper Champagne and in my blind tasting gained similar marks to far more expensive specimens. (From Fine Wine Delivery Company.)
Nicolas Feuillatte Reserve Particuliere Brut NV $64.99
This is one of the youngest Champagne labels, which since its establishment in the 70s - following a partnership between French businessman Monsieur Feuillatte and one of the region's co-operatives - is now the best-selling Champagne in France and number three globally. Quality has helped drive its success, illustrated by its signature Reserve Particuliere with its wonderfully fresh white fruits and citrus notes overlaid with notes of hazelnut and toast. (From Liquor Kings and all fine wine stores.)
Champagne Jacquinot Private Cuvee Brut NV $89.99
Though many folk play it safe by sticking to the best-known brands when they splash out on a Champagne, not venturing into lesser known territory means missing out on a gem like this. Made by the boutique family-run house of Jacquinot, it's an enthralling example with rich notes of apple and honey cake, supported by a lively line of citrus. (From unitedcellars.co.nz)
Champagne Larmandier-Bernier Premier Cru Blanc de Blancs NV $110
Grower Champagnes are another fruitful avenue to explore if you're search of something different and exciting: these are made by small producers from grapes grown on their own estate rather than by employing the widespread practice of purchasing fruit from numerous vineyards across the region. This dry, focused and extremely fine Blanc de Blancs is made by the biodynamic producer and one of my personal favourites, Larmandier-Bernier, and combines pure notes of crisp apple, bright citrus, mineral and hint of bread in its chalky textured palate. (From unitedcellars.co.nz)
Champagne Perrier Jouet Belle Epoque 200 $250.99
For a real treat, Perrier Jouet's top cuvee delivers a svelte palate of fresh green apples, citrus and mineral underpinned by toasty savoury undertones, all wrapped in a fine mousse and finishing on a fabulously long note of nut and bread crust. Its bottle - created in in 1902 by Emile Galle, a leading light in the Art Nouveau movement - is also one of the most beautiful of any Champagne. (From selected fine wine retailers.)
Champagne Maxim's Brut Rose NV $59.95
Recent years have seen a rise in the popularity of Rose Champagne, which tends to be taken more seriously than its still pink counterparts. This is a fine and well-priced example, with notes of fruits of the forest, crisp citrus, hints of florals and some nice depth to its yeasty undercurrent. (From wineimporter.co.nz)
Quartz Reef Central Otago Methode Traditionnelle Rose NV $35
A seriously good rose from one of our local producers, with an elegant creamy textured palate exhibiting delicate raspberry notes, silky citrus and a subtle toasty undercurrent. Quartz Reef makes some of the country's most impressive bubbles, with this recent foray into pink resulting in one of the finest examples. (From Glengarry, Point Wines, Caro's, Aorangi Bay Fine Wines, the Wine Vault, Primo Vino , Hamilton Wine Co, Cambridge Wine Co, Bay Wine Distributors, and Scenic Cellars.)
Daniel Le Brun Platinum Vintage 2001 $39.99
New Zealand is one of the few country's cool enough to produce high quality sparkling wines, with our best starting to edge up to the level of some Champagnes. This vintage wine has had over a decade to develop a rich and toasty mature character that combines with savoury marmitey notes and is counterpoised by crisp apple and mineral. A classy sparkler close to Champagne both in style and quality. (From Liquor Kings and all fine wine stores.)
Mansfield & Marsh Methode Traditionnelle Sparkling Wine NV $18.95
You get a big bang for your buck with this bubbly. It's got an intense bready character and weight that's a rare find at this price point, backed by bright fresh apple and lemon fruit. (From most supermarkets and liquor chains, First Glass, Herne Bay Cellars, La Barrique, La Vino, Scenic Cellars, Grantley's, Hamilton Wine Co, Hillsdene Wine Cellars, Oxford Fine Wines, Bethlem Wines & Spirits, Mount Liquor Mart, Uncorked Fine Wines.)
Augusti Torelli Reserva Cava 2008 $30
Spain's main sparkling wine is made by employing the same "Methode Traditionnelle" as Champagne and many of the world's other top fizz, but using different grape varieties - in this case a blend of the style's classic Macabeu, Xarello and Parellada. Cavas range from the simple to the stunning, with this good value Reserva a characterful example, exhibiting baked apple, spice, zesty citrus and toasty characters and finishing on a lingering note of nut. (From Wine Circle, Alberton Fine Foods, Wine Barrel, Blanc)
Morton Premium Brut Methode Traditionnelle NV $20.95
Morton has made much of its reputation through the quality of its bubbles, with its white label Brut a consistently reliable pick at the more affordable end of the sparkling scale. There's a beguiling freshness to this blend from Marlborough and Hawke's Bay, with its fruity palate of white peach with lemon meringue. (From most supermarkets and liquor chains, First Glass, Herne Bay Cellars, La Barrique, La Vino, Scenic Cellars, Grantley's, Hamilton Wine Co, Hillsdene Wine Cellars, Oxford Fine Wines, Bethlem Wines & Spirits, Mount Liquor Mart, Uncorked Fine Wines.)
Torre Oria Brut Cava $10-12
This has to be one of the best budget bubbly buys of the season: it's dry, light and fresh with a creamy mousse and notes of apple, hay and nut. As good sparkling wines tend to cost more to make than still - due to their lengthier and more labour intensive methods of production - to find something that's both so drinkable and affordable is quite astounding. (From Wine Direct, blackmarket.co.nz)
How much? You don't want your party to run out of fizz, so do the sums to ascertain how much you'll need. Each bottle of bubbly will fill around six small flutes and then you'll need to calculate how thirsty your guests are likely to be.
How cold? Most Champagnes and sparkling wines are best served well chilled - between 7°C to 10°C - so allow at least 20 minutes in an ice bucket or at least an hour in the fridge before they're poured. However, mature and vintage examples should be served slightly warmer to allow their full character to be expressed.
Several Champagne houses have now demonstrated that the temperature at which sparkling wine is served quite radically effects its character: it appears to taste lighter and zestier at lower temperatures and richer and nuttier when served warmer.
How to serve? The retro saucer-shaped "coupe" was allegedly modelled from the breast of Marie-Antoinette, which was possibly a better template for a bra than a bubbly glass.
The best vessel from which to imbibe bubbly is the narrow flute, which concentrates the wine's aromas and whose etched bottom enhances the flow of bubbles through the wine.

The district attorney in Baton Rouge said suspended LSU running back Jeremy Hill has been charged as a result of a fight that happened earlier this year.
District Attorney Hillar Moore said Hill and another man will face misdemeanor simple battery charges after a fight in the parking lot of Reggie's Bar in April. Moore said Hill and the other man, Robert Bayardo, were charged Monday and will be arraigned Friday.
Hill's 2013 season was already in question because of his probation stemming from an incident that happened when he was still in high school. According to Judge Bonnie Jackson's office, Hill is still scheduled for a hearing on his probation on August 16.
LSU head coach Les Miles suspended Hill until this case is settled.

To the legendary Billy "The Kid" Harris, every court with a basket was similar. Madison Square Garden. Chicago Stadium. Chick Evans Field House. The west-side playgrounds in Chicago.Ā Those venues were all his personal OK Corral stage. Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday never would have had a chance. Not against "The Kid."
The date is January, 2001, and the event was the inaugural Northern Illinois University Men's Basketball Alumni Game in Chick Evans Field House. It's 10 a.m. and the old-young Huskies are going full court – Hall of Famers such as Matt Hicks and Willie Hanson, plus Don Russell, Art Rohlman, Chuck Schramm, Andre Williams, Ephraim Eaddy, Ron Lindfors, Shawn Thrower, etc., plus two player-coach "ringers" named Bill Finucane and Mike Korcek.
From the first possession, I heard that familiar voice: "You can't guard me. You can't defend me. You can't stop me." I glanced over to my buddy Finucane and we both smiled. Bill was one of head coach Tom Jorgensen's team managers in the day. The clock moved back 30 years that morning to the halcyon early 1970s. The classic Billy "The Kid" we all knew and loved was back in his true, original Reader's Digest unforgettable character form.
With speckles of gray in his trimmed 'Fro and at age 50, "The Kid" smoked everybody for a game-high 24 points – including 18 in the first half – and then the final two, clutch, in-your-face jump shots that tied the score at 65 (because of a scoring error earlier in the game, we decided to be safe and leave the first alumni game a draw).
Nobody wanted to win more than Billy. At halftime, the younger guys like Eaddy and Williams asked me: "Mike, who is this old guy talking trash?" Before I could fully explain the legacy, Billy grabbed the PA microphone and told everyone in the building: "I'm back!"
Turn the clock to February, 2002, and "The Last Hurrah" at the field house when 6,000-plus spectators, fans, men and women who wore the NIU uniform or served valuable roles in the program said goodbye to "The Chick" before the move to the new Convocation Center. For most, to say the least, it was an emotional farewell. During the past player recognition, Billy proudly showed up in a striking purple suit and a tear in his eye. Even "The Kid" had feelings.
Billy and I first met in 1969-70. He was Jorgy's blue-chip recruit and I was a senior working for the original NIU Hall of Fame sports information director, the late Bud Nangle. Harris played in a celebrity-filled Huskie Pup team with the soon-to-be Wimbledon tennis twins Tim and Tom Gullikson, plus Gordon "Doc" Nuber (now the team orthopod with the Chicago Bears). Harris lived up to his Chicago Public League props as a frosh with a team-leading 24.6 point-per-game average and a high-game of 44. We were playing the Notre Dame's freshmen team in South Bend, Ind., that winter, when I witnessed the future sans Doc Brown and Marty McFly. Off the dribble from the elbow, somehow Billy beat three defenders for a vintage "Kid" layup – one-on-three – all while going between his legs with the ball and behind the back.Ā The refs called traveling. To be honest, the two men in the stripes probably never had seen such a move at that time. Neither had I.
When I talked to former NIU teammate and assistant coach Art Rohlman about Billy, I asked him to describe Harris with only one word. "Entertainer," Rohlman replied. Interesting and astute answer in context, Art. Years ago, I was reading a story about Jerry Lucas, the Ohio State All-America, 1960 Olympic basketball champion and Top 50 all-time NBA performer.Ā One of the game's greatest power forwards who starred on the New York Knicks with Willis Reed, Dave DeBusschure, Bill Bradley and Walt Frazier, Lucas rarely dunked or did anything flashy. In NBA terms, Lucas was workman-like, hit the boards hard, distributed the ball well for a big man and shot layups or high-percentage jumpers.
"The Kid?" The exact opposite. Billy demonstrated the basic fundamentals, but always added the French pastry. He was unique, an original, an artiste with the ball. With apologies to the NBA's Pat Riley, Billy invented one-on-one "Showtime." In the summer of 1979, I saw Billy in his prime at the Chicago State Summer League and "The Kid" nuked the area Prep Player of the Year before a packed gym. One of the early ball-handling lessons in basketball, of course, is protect your dribble and keep the ball low. Not Billy. He had that waist-high, cross-over dribble and dared – dared – anyone to take a stab at the ball in the playground, at Dunbar Vocational, at NIU, in the pros, etc.
"Billy had serious game from A to Z," recalled Rohlman, one of Jorgensen's best on-ball defenders. "You know, he was deceptive on the court. Some guys didn't realize how explosive off the dribble Billy was. You thought you were right on him and he'd jump right over you. He could handle it, rebound, play defense, and still was a ultimate showman."
Of the three NIU individual Hall of Famers and four pro draft selections on that historic 21-4 Huskie quintet that upset No. 5 Indiana and cracked the Top 20 in 1971-72, Harris probably made the biggest adjustments to his game. At Dunbar, Billy averaged 30-plus
points a game and once scored 57 points in a game. Fellow Public Leaguer, former Iowa star, and ex-NIU assistant Kenny Arnold remembered how he was backpedaling on defense with another defender and once Harris crossed halfcourt, he canned a 40-footer.
Imagine – as his Dunbar coach Jim Foreman or Jorgy have said for years – "The Kid" playing with the three-point basket. In his ABA days with the San Diego Conquistadors, Billy made The Sporting News' quasi-facetious All-Pump Team ("...for those players who shoot far beyond the call of duty"). "There was never a 25-footer that Billy didn't like," Rohlman joked.
"Many people don't realize how hard and long Billy had to work on his game and fit into our system," Jorgensen said. "First of all, he's playing with a 6-10 All-America in Jim Bradley upfront. Then, he's told to get the ball to our best perimeter shooter in Jerry Zielinski. His other guard is Larry Jackson, who was just as quick and as athletic as Billy. His first year on the varsity, he didn't play as much as he wanted, but he learned. We wanted to push the ball and nobody did it better than Billy."
Yet, in 1972-73, both Bradley and Harris made major All-America teams from a so-called mid-major program. Think about that. The Boston Celtics' Red Auerbach scouted both personally twice. Think about that.
The highlight of Billy's sophomore year at NIU came at Bloomington, Ind., when "The Kid" got into his first major college shootout with then a career-best 32 points against Indiana's George McGinnis (45 points) in a 113-112 setback. With Bradley becoming eligible the next winter, Huskie Nation looked at 1971-72 with great expectations.
"Billy was electric," said NIU grad Rick Cerrone, the former public relations director of the New York Yankees. "We saw him play that great game in The Garden (Madison Square Garden) with 35 points against Long Beach State. You couldn't take your eyes off him." Cerrone also recalled the 50-footer Harris made in pregame before the 1972-73 home opener. "Only Billy Harris could do that. The crowd went bonkers." Nangle once remarked: "Things were never, never dull with Billy."
Did Harris challenge Michael Jordan to one-on-one? Yes. Did Billy say some outrageous things? Yes. Did "The Kid" respect The Game? Yes. Did the game burn in his soul all of his life? Yes.
"I think the thing that really bothered Billy was the lack of recognition for his great, great skills," Rohlman said. "Skill-wise, he was like [LSU's] Pete Marvich and [our] Jim Bradley – way, way ahead of his time."
Do the modern-day NBA players appreciate "The Kid?" Especially a fellow Public League product as current star Derrick Rose? I don't know. But in those turbulent late 1960s, early 1970s and the rage, change, riots, assassinations, Vietnam, Billy Harris helped bring the inner-city style, the Black Game into the mainstream culture.
"The Kid" will not be forgotten.
• Mike Korcek is a former Northern Illinois University sports information director. His historical perspective on NIU athletics appears periodically in the Daily Chronicle.

2008 Volleyball
Mt. St. Joseph 3, Bluffton 0
Beavers come up just short at No. 20 Mt. St. Joseph
October 7, 2008
Click here for box score
CINCINNATI, Ohio - The Bluffton University volleyball team held leads in all three sets, but nationally ranked Mt. St. Joseph put together late runs to stay perfect at 4-0 in the Heartland Conference with a 3-0 victory over the Beavers. Bluffton fell to 11-7 overall and 1-2 in the HCAC following its second consecutive conference setback.
Freshman Jenna Eshleman (Landisville, Penn./Hempfield) paced the visitors with 12 digs and nine kills, narrowly missing her seventh double-double. Outside hitter Michele Rosen (Harrison/Harrison) added seven kills for the Beavers. Although she finished with just seven attacks on the night, freshman Christiana Sindelar (Napoleon/Napoleon) pounded four kills on no errors for a .571 hitting percentage.
Sophomore setter Shauna Rowland (Bucyrus/Wynford) dished out 21 assists, while junior libero Brittany Roth (Findlay/Findlay) chipped in 11 digs for Bluffton. Freshman Morgan Hicks (Convoy/Crestview) rifled three aces against the 20th ranked Lions.
The Beavers ended the night with 30 kills, 15 errors and 103 total attempts for a .146 hitting percentage. MSJ used outstanding serving, especially late in each set, to keep their conference mark unblemished at 4-0 while improving to 19-5 overall.
Coach Yarnell commented, "We showed improvement following the loss at Anderson a week ago. A few errors late in each set allowed the Lions to pull away, but we showed tonight that we can play with one of the elite teams in the country. Now it is a matter of sealing the deal when the opportunity is there."
Bluffton travels to Hanover College for another Heartland Conference tussle on Saturday, Oct. 11, 2008. The match is slated to start at 11 a.m.

Manchester City are gearing up to launch a £30 million bid for unhappy Roma midfielder Daniele de Rossi, according to the Sun.
Reports of De Rossi's unhappiness in Roma began circulating last week, with the Italy international said to be angered by his treatment at the hands of boss Zeman Zdenek.
The Roma manager reportedly questioned De Rossi professionalism before dropping him for the game against Atalanta before the international break – prompting the Manchester City target to demand showdown talks over his future when he returns from international duty with Italy this week.
The Citizens were heavily linked with a move for De Rossi over the summer, with manager Roberto Mancini expressing his admiration for the roving midfielder.
The 29-year-old held a press conference before the start of the season ruling out a move away from the Stadio Olimpico amidst continued reports of a Manchester City bid .
However now De Rossi is believed to be questioning his future in Italy, and the Sun reports that the Citizens are ready to make their third bid of around £30 million in attempt to finally get their man.
The fact De Rossi signed a new five-year deal worth would not be a problem for City, nor would his £180,000per-week wage demands according to the paper.
City did bolster their midfield options over the summer by bringing in Javi Garcia and Jack Rodwell, although that is unlikely to deter them in their efforts to take De Rossi to the Etihad Stadium.
Yaya Toure's agent revealed yesterday he may seek to leave Manchester City in the summer, something which could be behind their renewed interest in De Rossi.

PANAMA CITY BEACH - Knowing a life jacket is safely tucked away under a seat is cold comfort to someone who has gone overboard.
This week, law enforcement agencies are marking National Safe Boating Week and the Wear It Florida campaign by encouraging people, children especially, to wear life jackets while on the water.
Thursday afternoon, lights flashing, law enforcement pulled up next to a rented pontoon boat in St. Andrew Bay to check for safety equipment. Those on the boat were fully prepared with the required one life jacket per person on board, and Abigale Price, 4, and Lauren Price, 5, were protected with life jackets on.
For those younger than 6, wearing a life jacket is required by law. But the two youngsters were rewarded with more than recognition from Capt. Ken Parramore of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) for following the law. They also received coupons for free children's meals at The Red Elephant Pizza and Grill in Panama City.
This summer, the Bay County Marine Law Enforcement Alliance will look for other children out on the water wearing life jackets. Those who are will receive coupons to the restaurant.
The alliance of local law enforcement agencies - FWC, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, Bay County Sheriff's Office, Florida Park Police and police departments in Lynn Haven, Panama City and Panama City Beach - works throughout the year to share information and joins forces on holiday weekends, Parramore said.
"It's all of us getting together, working together," he said.
This is the fourth year of the Wear It Florida campaign, Parramore said.
Not all children out on the water were as protected as the Prices.Read more at http://www.newsherald.com/articles/boaters-93935-staying-catch.html

The vote in favor was 3,101, vs. 726 opposed, with 96 percent of the vote tallied.
The Board of Education election will take place next April.
It was just last April that a report from the state Department of Education alleged that Mayor Felix Roque injected himself into hiring in the school district, and that employees felt obligated to make campaign contributions. It alleged that supporters and relatives of Roque were treated favorably in promotions and employment, while perceived enemies were punished.
Roque was recently tried on charges of hacking into an opponent's website, but was found innocent of those charges, while his son was found guilty.
Resident Frank Ferreiro led the charge to get the measure on the ballot, along with his group, Residents for a Better West New York.
The vote in April will be for five seats. The current board has seven seats, and three of those are expiring. The board will be expanded to nine seats, so voters will get to choose five, which could tip the majority against Roque, depending on who wins.

Submission + - RMS urges W3C to reject DRM in HTML5 on principle (fsf.org)
[...] the W3C cannot prevent companies from grafting DRM onto HTML. They do this through nonfree plug-ins such as Flash, and with nonfree Javascript code, thus showing that we need control over the Javascript code we run and over the C code we run. However, where the W3C stands is tremendously important for the battle to eliminate DRM. On a practical level, standardizing DRM would make it more convenient, in a very shallow sense. This could influence people who think only of short-term convenience to think of DRM as acceptable, which could in turn encourage more sites to use DRM. On the political level, making room for DRM in the specifications of the World Wide Web would constitute an endorsement in principle of DRM by the W3C. Standardization by the W3C could facilitate DRM that is harder for users to break than DRM implemented in Javascript code. If the DRM is implemented in the operating system, this could result in distribution of works that can't be played at all on a free operating system such as GNU/Linux.

When the blackbird flew out of sight
It marked the edge
Of one of many circles
(Wallace Stevens, Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird)
There are many ways of looking at anything. In Wallace Stevens' poem the verse above is the ninth way he had found of looking at a blackbird.
Great poetry often shocks us to a new level of wakefulness by drawing our attention to something so obvious we can't understand why we hadn't seen it for ourselves before. But when we try to put this new perception into our own words we come up with very flat sounding clichés.
True insights are delivered and interpreted in the package they come in. Truth is always embodied, however hard we try to make it abstract and pin it down like a dead butterfly in an exhibition case of 'timeless truths'. Truth is as embodied and temporal as we are – but also lives in the transcendence that makes us fully alive, fully awake.
What is Stevens describing here? Perhaps the sense of a residue or a remnant of experience that remains after the main event has passed. The blackbird has gone out of sight but the person watching it is left with a vivid sense of the circle it had made in its flight. A presence in absence, in the empty air there is an invisible edge. But also there is the awareness of it being one of many circles in the air which were there and are still there.
This sensitivity of perception is not esoteric. It's just not always awakened. Meditation awakens perception and insights into ordinary life. It delivers the sense that not everything that is present is always visible and also that there is the vision of things unseen that we call faith.
Another subtle consequence of this awakened perception is an experience of beauty. If we're lucky, the refining and humbling process of Lent, given the reflective time it needs, should have produced a few of these by now.

TRUTH, justice and redress: bold promises for a royal commission, but ones Australians have been longing to hear when it comes to child abuse.
At first sight, victims and their supporters are greatly heartened by Friday's announcements: both the commissioners and the terms of reference seem excellent. The reasons why the inquiry was necessary - the suicides and premature deaths, the plight of survivors, the concealment and protection of predators, the barriers to justice, the need for law reform and more - are all recognised.
The government has promised the necessary resources, including for advocacy groups, given a long and extendable time frame (but balanced that with a request for an interim report after 18 months), and set up a mechanism by which police can investigate and prosecute as the commission keeps working.
In some ways the most vital work the six commissioners will do over their three-year mandate will take place in the first two months, as they decide how to operate and who they will hear. There are two mutually exclusive imperatives: to be thorough yet also timely.
There were 800 submissions just on the terms of reference. Far more will want to tell their stories, and the institutions need to reply. Although the commission can investigate any institution, there is little doubt that allegations about the Roman Catholic Church will dominate, as they have the Victorian parliamentary inquiry into how the churches handled child abuse.
But it is not alone.
The Salvation Army has an appalling record in Victoria, and state governments will face some awkward questions.
The Victorian inquiry is going to continue its work, resuming on January 23, and this is a good decision. As its chairwoman Georgie Crozier said on Friday, it has already made significant progress. And the shocking headlines produced helped make the commission inevitable. It couldn't replace the commission, but it can help it.
But amid all the optimism, there are several grounds for caution. The sheer scale of the task is daunting. The recent royal commission into the Victorian bushfires, which took just over a year, had in the hearing room at any one time three commissioners, four or five barristers, up to 20 solicitors, plus witnesses and an army of IT and administrative staff. This is going to be considerably bigger, especially if it works in several venues.
Dividing the commissioners, and dividing evidence into formal and informal, will involve their own legal niceties that experienced lawyers say will need to be carefully considered.
Perhaps the most difficult task will be managing expectations. This Royal Commission can achieve a vast amount, but it cannot right all wrongs and it cannot offer categorical certainties. The commissioners will not be like Moses ascending to the top of Mt Sinai to receive the 10 Commandments. Some careful listening and serious thinking awaits them.
Their biggest challenge is to change the culture in the institutions, especially the Catholic Church. The church is saying the right things about full co-operation, and its new lay-led advisory council seems promising, but the church around the world always says the right things then fails to match the rhetoric. The evidence from the Vatican is that on this journey of 1000 miles it has only taken the first faltering step.

Mark Lyons scored 18 points and Solomon Hill added 17, as No. 9 Arizona rolled past instate foe Northern Arizona, 93-50.
Nick Johnson chipped in 10 points, seven assists and four steals for the Wildcats (4-0), who shot 12-of-21 from 3-point range and 58 percent overall to win its 29th straight meeting with the Lumberjacks.
"Our second half was really good," Arizona head coach Sean Miller said. "Our effort level was good across the board. We helped, recovered and did the things we need to do defensively."
Dewayne Russell netted 13 points to pace Northern Arizona (2-4), which finally hosts its first home game on Saturday against Sam Houston St.
Arizona was ahead, 9-0, less than two minutes in following a Hill 3-pointer, and an 11-2 run at the midway point pushed the margin to 29-11.
Russell beat the halftime buzzer with a 3-pointer, but the Wildcats' strong shooting in the opening 20 minutes helped yield a 39-26 cushion.
A 14-2 flurry to open the second half essentially put the game out of reach. Lyons scored eight points and Hill netted six during the four-plus minutes of action, with Hill's 3-pointer making it a 53-28 game.
The closest the Lumberjacks got from there was 19.
Game Notes
The Lumberjacks' last win over the Wildcats came during the 1968-69 season ... Arizona scored 25 points off 15 turnovers ... Arizona plays its first road game Saturday at Texas Tech ... Northern Arizona shot 36 percent from the field.

Michigan Morons
First of all, we've always been curious to know what kind of "individual" wears a t-shirt with the F-bomb displayed on it. But to have it on there twice - and the finger to boot?!
However, that's not the worst thing about this shirt. When we first saw it, we were a bit confused if it was indeed a "pro" Michigan shirt. Sure, they're saying "fuck" Tosu but doesn't it also seem like they're flipping off the state of Michigan as well?
For those reasons, even though we're a Wolverine site, this "pro" U-M shirt gets the dubious distinction of our top Moron Monday post of the day.
P.S. Can't wait to see the Tosu sites ripping on some of their fans for wearing Fuck Michigan garb.

Buck the Fuckeyes sounds better in my opinion.
- May 15, 2006 2:17 AM
I agree with brickeye. Fuck the Fuckeyes is mixed up and stupid. But I will defend the finger. I think it's quite obvious that the finger is pointed away from Michigan.
That said, it's still a dumb shirt. UM should be leaving the 3rd grade antics to the rest of the Big Ten. Was it this blog that noted the fan who walked around Columbus wearing a Clemson jersey with the name and number of the player who Woody Hayes punched out? That's a Michigan fan.
- May 15, 2006 9:24 AM
Of course only the other 10 Big 10 schools do such things. It is incomprehensible that the auto workers (many still with jobs) and their Einstein IQ's that make up the biggest part of Michigan's fan base, would ever use the F Bomb on a shirt.
Everyone knows that nicotine is a mental stimulant, thus, their brains should understand that such a tacky slogan on their favorite clothing choice, the T shirt, only tells the world that they may be, God forbid, equal in status to the rest of the conference.
What in the HELL is wrong with these people.
This is shocking I say, SHOCKING!
- May 15, 2006 10:23 AM
And, the shape of the "state of michigan" is also incomplete! Whoever made this shirt likely went to TOSU (or maybe its someone from Toledo that goes to EMU).
- May 15, 2006 1:37 PM
I once bought a FUCLA shirt and my wife freaked. So like any good husband I got rid of it. She also wasnt too happy when I tought the kids to sing TUSC.... you know the part where USC fans yell "U-C-L-A SUCKS!" Yeah, my wife still gets shocked at all that foul language, but I still love her..... (and UCLA still sucks!)
- May 15, 2006 5:49 PM
If the hand is supposed to be facing out towards the viewer, then the thumb is on the wrong side.
The only possible conclusions are that either Michiganers are anatomically different than the rest of us, or you guys are flipping off your own state.
The former wouldn't be a surprise to anybody. If the latter is the case, I don't blame you for becoming bandwagon Buckeyes.

I've always been a big fan of my "Trojans SUC" t-shirt. I bought it from some UCLA guys, who were quick to remind me that you can't spell "suck" without U, S, and C.
That being said, no way in hell I'd ever wear a shirt with an F-bomb on it. Having an anti-Domer shirt with "Rudy Sucks" on it, that's fine. but "Fuck the Fuckeyes..." No thanks.

Not if its your left hand. If its your left hand then the image is correct and is not flipping off the image of the state of Michigan.
- May 15, 2006 9:41 PM
Looks to me like a joint project done by UM's Pi Phi's and Tri-Delts. They must be planning on a road trip to Columbus and they don't want to waste anybody's time. Gotta hand it to UM's women; they know how to advertise.

ZURICH (Reuters) - Swiss drugmaker Novartis AG said on Friday it had signed a licensing and research deal that could boost its ability to develop innovative cell-based therapies for conditions where little treatment is currently available.
The maker of blockbuster blood pressure drug Diovan said it would use a stem-cell based platform developed by U.S.-based biopharmaceutical company Regenerex to help broaden its cell therapy portfolio.
Timothy Wright, head of development at Novartis Pharmaceuticals, said the agreement would support Novartis' leadership position in cell therapy.
