Spring break is upon us again and what better way to get ready for a week of mirth and mayhem full of parties and girls and booze than be checking out just what it is everyone loves about their week in the sun, and then shredding it apart with grim, gruesome reality. Because while your week of debauchery sounds good on paper, you probably forgot to factor in all the horrible things that will ruin your life. People always forget those.
The big thrill of any spring break getaway, aside from the week long bender and ample bosoms, is the fact you get to take off to someplace new and exciting. If you planned to do the exact same stuff in Sandusky, Ohio, it just wouldn't be quite as fun. Because if the world were a human body, a Spring Break destination would be the sexy cleavage of a hot chick and Sandusky would your sweaty neighbor's taint.
The Downside: Let's see, what could go wrong for an army of drunken American teens with excess cash and no common sense, or at least none that could survive the deluge of tequila it met once it crossed the border? If you guessed drug cartels and common criminals, you sir, are correct.
Turns out it's not just mom and dad who want to keep an eye on you in Acapulco, it's shady resort employees, local drug dealers and other random people who figure they could make $100 by stomping your ass into chorizo in a back alley rather than, you know, working.
The Texas department of Public Safety has already issue warnings to travelers to just avoid Mexico and the US Embassy has issued a similar statement, noting that 65 Americans were killed in Mexico last year. In places like Mazatlan there are nearly weekly kidnappings and shootouts between drug cartels. It's a party, but maybe not the party you're looking for. Plus, we just saw this documentary about piranhas, and it looked pretty intense.
You may be thinking you have nothing to worry because, come on now, millions of people travel to Mexico each year and only 65 were killed through unspecified means? It was probably just El Chupacabra. And the very danger of El Chupcabra turns you on so, this year, you're going to hump your way through Spring Break. An admirable goal, my friend.
The Downside: Research shows that 3 in 5 women engage in unprotected sex during Spring Break. Sounds like an upside, am I right? High five! No, but seriously, herpes.
Along with increased boning, clinics back home notice a sharp increase in STD testing the week after Spring Break, because while Chad and the guys from the Alpha Beta house are in town to party hard, they brought along two new pledges this year, Fire Crotch and Oozing Discharge. Those are code names for VD, y'all. We're using a Christian site as a source on this because it amuses us.
It wouldn't be spring break if your liver and brain didn't live to regret it and that means saving your pennies the rest of the year to be sure you'll have enough to drink yourself into oblivion and then guess after the fact that you had a good times based on whatever scars, photos and diseases you brought home.
The Downside: No one else wants you to have a good time. That seems counterintuitive since you're with all your friends, plus thousands of other drunken hooligans, and it seems like they all want to have a good time, but they don't matter. Two things matter – the police and your liver and neither one appreciates your binge drinking.
Panama City Beach sees a few dozen cases of alcohol poisoning every Spring Break, the same thing is repeated in every spring break destination everywhere to a greater or lesser degree to the point of several hundred cases occurring in the average year over a on week break.
Depending on your world view, a worse fate is the charges you'll face for underaged drinking if you're one of the 18-20 year old crowd. Florida cops handed out 1100 arrests across the state last year in an attempt to crack down on wholesome, vomitous fun. The man is always trying to keep you down, especially when you're too drunk to stand.
Before you can get VD from your new best friend whose name you don't remember and, quite possibly, didn't even ask form you need to meet that person. And that means getting out there and being seen. So maybe you're on the beach or maybe you're heading out to a club to pick up that special someone, or at least get a handjob at the bar. God, you love is magical.
The Downside: A wise editor once told me you can never make jokes about rape or torture because neither is inherently funny. I then went on to make jokes about both because context is everything, friends. You just need to treat it with kid gloves. And in light of that we'll just say that while you want to meet awesome new people who have moist parts for you to jostle around in a fun and friendly environment, a city like Daytona Beach reports that upwards of a dozen people every year take the time to report that they may not have consented to that behavior, with many more suspected to be not reported.
In Jamaica it's not uncommon for those who leave resort property to fall victim to attacks and sometimes even on resort property as law enforcement I drastically understaffed. The US State department even says rapes will commonly occur after dark in parts of Mexico where Spring Breakers have gone off the resort. If you need to use the word "commonly" to refer to sexual assault, events have taken a piss poor turn.
So maybe you're all paranoid about violence and disease and whatnot so you're going to just have some innocent fun and go swimming, maybe hang out on the beach and drink a cool glass of papaya juice because you're a bit of a square. How could this turn out badly for you?
The Downside: May as well booze it up, kid, because your straight edge lifestyle isn't doing you any favors. The American Academy of Dermatology would like you to know that millions of new cases of skin cancer happen every year and they're on the rise. Talk about a willy wilter.
If you're not worried about melanoma, there's always the danger that lurks below. Galveston Island routinely has to engage in water rescues, moving hundreds out of riptides. More than a few drownings can be expected across all the spring break destinations. Shit.
The best part of Spring Break, aside from all the other best parts, is that one guy who's an asshole. Every group of friends has an asshole and you keep him around because he'll do asshole things that the rest of you aren't stupid enough to do. God bless you, asshole friend. Without you, we'd never know what the dumb shit the rest of us are too smart to do looks like.
The Downside: Be wary of your asshole friend lest he suck you into his asshole scheme and you get arrested. In Tallahassee, aside from all the underaged drinking arrests, cops last year dinged 39 folks for giving booze to minors, 4 for drugs and 50 for false ID. Not assholey enough? Two kids in Panama City were arrested for taunting and attempting to steal an alligator. There's loads of other stupid arrests but honestly, trying to steal a gator is probably the best one.
first?? wtf people..

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court, hearing arguments on the emotionally charged issue of gay marriage for the first time, appeared willing Tuesday to restore marital rights to gays and lesbians in California but uncomfortable with legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide.
The justices sounded sharply divided as they considered Proposition 8, California's ban on gay marriage, and wary of going too far, too fast. None of them spoke up for a sweeping ruling that would require every state to change its marriage laws.
But Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, who probably holds the deciding vote, said in the day's most poignant moment that he was troubled by the effect of Proposition 8 on the nearly 40,000 children in the state being raised by same-sex couples. The court should hear "the voice of these children," he said. "They want their parents to have full recognition and full status" that goes with marriage.
FULL COVERAGE: Same-sex marriage ban
Kennedy, who has written two previous decisions in favor of gay rights, sounded anguished, admitting he was "wrestling" with whether to extend the same anti-discrimination protection to gays that the court gives to women but also expressed concern about taking the court "into unchartered waters" or over a "cliff."
The court's liberal justices more forcefully attacked the argument by Proposition 8 proponents that the purpose of marriage was for procreation, with Justice Elena Kagan asking at one point whether states could ban marriage between couples older than 55.
Charles J. Cooper, who argued for Proposition 8, said that would not be constitutional, adding that at least one member of an elderly couple would probably still be fertile, drawing laughter from the courtroom.
"Lots of people who get married can't have children," said Justice Stephen G. Breyer.
The arguments opened two days of hearings by the court on the controversial issue of same-sex marriage. On Wednesday, the justices will hear a constitutional challenge to the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, or DOMA, which bans federal benefits for 130,000 legally married gay couples, including 18,000 couples in California.
The Obama administration and gay rights advocates say the provision is discriminatory and denies the married couples the "equal protection of the laws." Appeals courts in Boston and New York have ruled it unconstitutional.
CHEAT SHEET: Your guide to Prop. 8 and DOMA
California's voters approved Proposition 8 in 2008 to limit marriage to a man and a woman. However, the referendum was challenged in federal court in San Francisco and struck down by the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals last year on the grounds it took away from gays and lesbians a right to marry that they had won in the state courts.
If the Supreme Court had turned down the appeal in the California case, it would have had the effect of restoring gay marriage in California. Such a move would not have set a legal precedent nor would it have forced a change in the states that forbid gay marriage.
Kennedy's comments, combined with those of the four liberal justices, suggest the five will combine to seek a narrow approach in the California case. They could reject the appeal from the sponsors of Proposition 8 on the grounds that they lack legal "standing" to speak for the state of California. They could dismiss the appeal and let stand the 9th Circuit's ruling. Or they could write a limited opinion that finds the California ballot measure unconstitutional. All three options would have the effect of allowing gay marriage in California.
Tuesday's arguments highlighted deep philosophical divisions between liberals and conservatives over the potential effects of extending the right to marry to same-sex couples.
On the court's right wing, Justice Antonin Scalia jumped most forcefully to defend Proposition 8. "There's considerable disagreement among sociologists as to what [are] the consequences of raising a child in a single-sex family, whether that is harmful to the child or not," he said.
Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. questioned whether a court should change "this institution that's been around since time immemorial."
"When the institution of marriage developed historically," Roberts said, it "didn't include homosexual couples."
Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr., a third conservative member of the court, suggested it was too soon to make a decision, another point made by those backing the California ban.
"You want us to step in and render a decision based on an assessment of the effects of this institution, which is newer than cellphones or the Internet," Alito told Theodore B. Olson, the attorney challenging California's ban. "I mean we … do not have the ability to see the future."
Joined by Justice Clarence Thomas, the most conservative justices appear to have four solid votes against any constitutional right for same-sex marriage.
But the court's liberal justices repeatedly pressed Cooper to explain why committed gay couples should be denied the right to marry.
"What harm (do) you see happening?" Kagan asked at one point, demanding examples of "when and how and what harm to the institution of marriage or to opposite-sex couples" could come.
Cooper demurred, explaining that the more pertinent question was what benefit a state like California could derive from allowing gays and lesbians to marry.
Cooper has argued that traditional marriage has the benefit of fostering child-bearing, a purpose he warned could be subverted by same-sex marriage. "It will refocus the purpose of marriage and the definition of marriage away from the raising of children and to the emotional needs and desires of adults, of adult couples," he said.
Despite the back and forth over the fundamental implications of gay marriage, much of the argument Tuesday focused on possible procedural flaws in the case.
Roberts and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg questioned whether the sponsors of Proposition 8 had legal standing to defend it in the Supreme Court.
"Have we ever granted standing to the proponents of a ballot measure?" Ginsburg asked.
But Kennedy, a California native, said California law on ballot measures gave a special responsibility to the sponsors of initiatives. He said they could represent the people of the state when its officials refused to defend a measure approved by the voters.
This exchange suggested Kennedy was not looking for a way for the court to duck a ruling on California's ban on gay marriage.
The justices meet behind closed doors later this week to vote on the two gay marriage cases. But what they decide is not likely to be known until late June.

How many times have you been driving down the road when you realize you forgot to pay an important bill? Or you need cash but don't want to leave your spouse short on funds? Or you need to buy new tires or pay for a large mechanical breakdown but have no way to transfer funds to pay for it? Luckily, now there are tools that make these worries a thing of the past.
Without a doubt, two of the most important electronic devices invented during modern times are the personal computer and the cell phone. I'm sure most of you remember the days when driving down a highway without a cell phone was no big deal. After all, if you needed to make a call you could just stop at a pay phone. But today, you couldn't imagine leaving home each day without a fully charged phone.
Many feel the same way about their computers. As these technologies advance, they're changing the way we go about our daily lives. Nowhere is this truer than in the arena of personal finance. Computer finance applications and online banking services are quickly making the checkbook register and the regular visit to your local branch obsolete.
I cannot imagine the difficulty today's truckers face when trying to both manage a business and stay in touch with the family's finances while traveling around the country. Many do so by having different checkbooks and parties controlling the finances. However, it doesn't have to be like that.
One of the tools I've mentioned before is personal financial software, namely Quicken or Microsoft Money. These work great on the home computer; however, they're not always practical while on the road. Fortunately, mini versions of these same programs are available online, accessible from any computer in any location. And best of all, they're totally free.
Web sites such as QuickenOnline.com and Mint.com automatically download all of your checking, debit card, credit card, automated withdrawals, transfers, and any other bank transactions and categorize them into several different groups. For example, they will recognize a purchase made at a restaurant and categorize it under "Food and Dining."
With all your purchases organized, it only takes a couple of clicks to set up a budget that automatically monitors how much you're spending in each category.
This makes it incredibly easy to see exactly where your money is going and to find new ways to save. Along with these online money-management Web sites, most major banks also allow you to access your accounts and make transfers online free of charge. Check your bank's Web site for more information.
Again, these services are all web-based, meaning there is no need to download any software. You access them just like you would any other Web site. So if you don't have a laptop in your truck, you can always access your finances from any public computer with an Internet connection. And with the advent of mobile broadband cards, and smartphones capable of accessing the Internet and running computer-like applications, it's becoming easy to stay online even in the most remote parts of the country.
These services also provide a great way for you and your spouse to stay connected in achieving your family's financial goals. No longer will it be up to just one person to pay bills or stay up on the latest budget expenditures. Both of you can use these services to stay informed, and remain goal-oriented.
Just as it's difficult to imagine leaving home without your cell phone, it should be just as difficult to leave home without full control over your finances. These tools make it possible to stay in control and keep your financial wheels turning. It's like having your own personal financial assistant available 24 hours a day from anywhere on the planet. Once your finances are placed at your fingertips, and you can solve concerns before they become crises.
Both Quicken Online and Mint are owned by the same company and offer similar services. Check them both out and see which one works best for you. After all, they're completely free. LL

If Queen Christina is not the best of Greta Garbo's films (as many Garbo fanatics insist), it is certainly the most luxuriously romantic of her talkie features. The star is cast as 17th-century Swedish queen Christina, who feels that she can best function in a male-dominated world by adopting men's clothes and attitudes (this cross-dressing element adds a subliminally gay subtext which curiously makes the subsequent events all the more poignant). Fiercely devoted to her country and the welfare of her people, Christina has long since abandoned all thoughts of pursuing any kind of a romance -- but changes her mind when she meets and falls in love with Spanish envoy Antonio (John Gilbert). After an idyllic night together, Christina and Antonio are compelled to part, but the Queen vows then and there to relinquish her throne in favor of marriage to the envoy. Alas, the complex political machinations between their two countries permanently separate the two lovers, leaving Christina more alone in the world than ever. The chemistry between Garbo and Gilbert -- who as the whole world knew in 1933 had once been real-life lovers -- is positively mesmerizing, especially in the classic scene wherein Christina, after consummating their passion, walks dreamily around their room, touching and memorizing every detail (so persuasive is her pantomime in this scene that her last-minute explanation as to what she is doing is not only unnecessary, but downright jarring). Equally unforgettable is the final shot of Garbo staring enigmatically past the camera, allowing the viewer to "fill in" her thoughts (director Rouben Mamoulian always claimed that he ordered Garbo to think about "absolutely nothing," but one wonders). While some of Garbo's earliest talkies tend to creak a bit, Queen Christina is as fascinating today as it was nearly seven decades ago, and will undoubtedly continue to remain just as fascinating for the next seven decades. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

It's pretty much known by anyone who possesses a working set of ears that Taylor Swift has the vocal range of a walrus being strangled to death by a vibrating belt machine (as opposed to say, Warbringer, who are basically the Three Tenors of our generation). Still, that fact hasn't stopped her from snatching up damn near every Billboard, CMT, MTV, BET, or Grammy award out there, because musical talent is something that is apparently determined by how many lovestruck 12 year-old girls buy your relationship-prostituting albums nowadays.
In any case, Ms. Swift and her voice have become quite the subject of parody on the Twitters and Youtubes lately, with her hit song "I Knew You Were Trouble" taking the brunt of it. While her duet with a screaming goat might be the most notorious of these parodies, Youtube user FreeFights4You has offered an alternative, MMA-themed take on the song that will surely ascend to the top of the Taylor Swift-based parodies for at least a week.
Featuring none other than UFC 160′s Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva on guest vocals, this parody might just be the greatest thing you will ever witness today. I mean, it's no "baby monkey riding on a pig," but what will ever top that slice of fried gold, honestly?
Now if only the UFC would quit being so stubborn and start accepting fan-made promos like "Nick Diaz: Crazy, Shirtless Mofo" and "Knowing About Horse Meat is Half the Battle," we guaran-damn-tee that they would see their pay-per-view sales increased tenfold. TENFOLD WE TELLS YOU.

Everything was brand new. The grounds of the hotel on arrival are spectacular, carved into the side of a mountain. The rooms were luxurious, lots of wood, cable tv, big bathroom with soaking tub; the two main pools, with two smaller ones, were lovely, not too crowded; we had 7 straight days of sun, 90 degrees, no bugs, no humidity. Everyone there, guests and staff, were very friendly. Would highly recommend this resort.
June 28, 2004— TripAdvisor.com
"Absolute Paradise! My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful resort, from the grand entry lane to the main resort area. We were fortunate enough to stay in one of the suites on top of the property with remarkable views. Service, food, hospitality were all top rate. We can't imagine ever staying anywhere else."
January 4, 2007— TripAdvisor.com
We stayed in a Canopy suite and it was perfect for us. It had a very large enclosed patio where the kids could eat breakfast and watch the tropical birds and monkeys. Even though the suites were up away from the pool, the bell service would appear in minutes to take you to and from the pools beaches restaurants. The kids for all seasons staff was outstanding. We have a child who is 4 with special needs and they were wonderful. Every night they had things like a magic show, disco night, and more. I could write a book about our experience.
February 18, 2010— TripAdvisor.com
My husband and I came to the resort right from our wedding. The service was absolutely incredible. The resort is beautiful, everywhere you go there is someone to help you, water flavored with fresh fruit, and sunscreen. Some days we just relaxed by the beaches or pools and other days we took advantage of the local adventures. The zip lining at the near by Witch's Rock was euphoric and a great way to lightly hike through the mountains.

North Korea Launches Two Short-Range Missiles
Move Seen by Seoul as Escalation of Recent Provocations
SEOUL—North Korea early Sunday launched two missiles into the sea from near its border with South Korea, a move seen by Seoul as an escalation of provocations after a series of similar launches further away from the border.
The two short-range missiles were launched around 1a.m. local time from near the city of Kaesong, about 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) north of the border, marking one of the closest launches in recent years, according to Seoul's Defense Ministry....

Yaoi certainly isn't repulsive to me, but not interesting to me either. I haven't really given it the old college try, honestly.
Mostly I'm attracted to men by their personality (women too, though I'll admit looks can trump that). And I've yet to see a yaoi production that creates a truly attractive personality.
FIRST reaction? None, really. Way back when, I believed that if I wanted to consider myself an otaku, I should see something from every genre, yaoi included. (The meanings or implications of otaku are not for this thread.) I watched Ai no Kusabi, and I thought the plot was kinda weird, but I wasn't repulsed in the slightest. I did look into a few other classics, but it wasn't until Gravitation that I became a fan. (Says someone with all the remixes...)
A Roku is great for watching shows!
i actually thought i'll be nosebleeding but i didn't
and now, i've been shounen-ai hunting.. quit yaoi and mature stuffs for a long time now(i guess?)
should be researching..
3... 2... 1.... nuke.
I'd be puking my guts out!
What....the...O.0....o.o.........O//O.................OAO *closed the tab*
The past is the past, don't let it cloud who you are now.
"Animated gay porn...Hey, yaoi fangirls do you watch gay porn?"
And they responded with, "Ew! No way! That's gross."
Sparkle nails. Can't touch this.
When I was very sweet and dumb about this kind of stuff, I thought it was a type of ice cream. Then someone showed me a video of it and I lost everything cutesy-cuddly and shit like that.
I will say that I look at it when I'm bored. But I'm not really attached to it.
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
It did, however, change how I looked at Sauske and Naruto in the anime.
Before-"FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! HE'S NOT YOUR BLOOD, SO KILL HIM!"
After-"So wait...when they kissed...it was wrong? Do they have a bad relationship because of Sauske's past? Nahhh it was an accident. THEN WHY YOU REJECT SAKURA, SAUSKE? Oh wait, Naruto liked her in the first place. Wait where's the fighting fit in?!"
Now 2 or 3 years of health class flung at your face-it all said boy and girl. No boy and boy. Be creative, dumbasses! Anything can happen! I mean-take futanari for example! What is it, yuri? or Yaoi? NO IT'S CREATIVITY TO THE MAX.
Oh would you look at the time...it's my natural crazy-o-clock time. Maybe I should stop typing...
*OFFLINE* Trying to get back in the habit of posting...
LOOOOOL i was actually pretty casual about it but i like it now ^ o ^
i wish i can could change my weaboo-ass name
First I was all "Ew!"
Now I'm all "YES!"
1% evil. 99% fangirl.
Doesn't repulse me at all...love is all...no matter what form it takes in...if you really love each other...seriously go for it.
Suki Anime
My first Yaoi...Might have been Naruto (with the whole Sasuke kissing thing.)
No, Jk!
It was definitely No.6, If it falls under the Yaoi category.
I was planning on dropping No.6, but I was already to far in to go back.
So I finished it.
Yes, I had mixed feelings about it.
Yaoi almost made me think I was Gay and attracted to males, but a good look at the female body set me straight.
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
Btw, I am strongly against Yaoi or any form of man on man action because it is a total mindf^ck on my emotional side. I might be a closet homo and I am scared to find out if I continue experimenting. The kissing dude on dude scenes make me awkwardly happy, not the erection kind of happy but an emotional kind of happy, it's weird, I know, that is why I hate watching Yaoi. It seems to unlock a -what I see as really messed up side of me. I occasionally hug bros I haven't seen in a while, and I like the feeling, but again, not in a h^rny way, but in an emotional way, I don't know why, but it seems healthy to hug another man. **Correction, it seems healthy to hug people, just does, makes me know that they are alive and real.
^ LOL. He said, "Alive and real"!
I have never seen yaoi or shonen ai, so I wouldn't know my reaction.

Gorgeous, full-color illustrations of costumes from "My Fair Lady," "Cabaret," "Cleopatra," "Bonnie and Clyde" and "Vertigo" are just a few of the goodies in Deborah Nadoolman Landis' new book, "Hollywood Sketchbook: A Century of Costume Illustration" (Harper Design, $75), which shines a light on the under-appreciated field of costume illustration.
"These are the products of talented individuals who are part of our business. It's truly the art of Hollywood," Landis says.
The book features the work of 100 Hollywood artists, including costume designers who did their own sketches and illustrators who sketched for and collaborated with designers.
Among those represented are costume designer/illustrator Theadora Van Runkle ("Bonnie and Clyde"), whose hippie-inspired drawings from "I Love You, Alice B. Toklas!" (1968) have the exuberant color and line of Impressionist paintings. Van Runkle, who is quoted in the book, says she used drawings for "working out any problems and manufacturing of the clothes. If it didn't work in the drawing, it sure as hell wouldn't work on the figure."
Costume designer Adrian was also a prolific drawer. His childhood doodles famously became reference material for his work on "The Wizard of Oz," Landis writes.
Then there is Pauline Annon, a fashion and costume illustrator who was trained at Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles and worked with numerous designers on artwork for films such as "Shampoo" and "Fight Club." Costume designer and producer Anthea Sylbert recalls that she could "give her a photo of the actor, every piece of fabric I had chosen, all the croquis [rough sketches], and tell her who the character was. I would tell her what the scene was in the screenplay so that she would get the whole attitude into the sketch." Annon's sketches are part of the permanent collection at the Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, D.C.
Gathering the images and giving them proper attribution required a lot of research, because precious few sketches were signed. And even those that were sometimes had a complicated provenance.
Take Edith Head, for example, one of the most famous costume designers in history. Head employed a team of sketch artists to turn her ideas into polished illustrations, which she nontheless signed with her own name.
So despite her best efforts, Landis says there may be some mislabeling. But the book's 500 illustrations — most of which have never before been published — are a wonderful treat.

Eels Swim in a New Direction with 'Wonderful, Glorious'
After more than a dozen studio albums in which he composed the songs before recording began, Mark Everett Oliver, leader of Eels, decided to change the strategy for "Wonderful, Glorious" (Vagrant), out this week. The quintet entered his home studio in Los Feliz, California, and let rip, developing songs as the sessions progressed.
"This is the one time I went in with absolutely no plan," said Everett by phone. "It could've been a disaster."
A disaster it is not. The melodies and arrangements support Everett's lyrics, which reflect a worldview that's part childlike purity, part barbed irony and explained by a spirit-grinding life he's experienced.
Of the sessions, he said, "I've always kept an open floor." His current band members, whose names – the Chet, Knuckles, Koool G Murder and P-Boo – read like they were co-opted from a '40s street gang – played until songs took shape. "This time I decided no matter how bad an idea, let it happen." Apparently, the bad ideas were discarded: "Wonderful, Glorious" flows with the oddball integrity of earlier Eels albums. The music varies from blue and downtempo to warm-hearted and upbeat, suggesting a sense of adventure reigned during the sessions. Everett, who is 49 years old, wrote lyrics as the songs came together, culling some from an old notebook. Strings and other touches were added later to some tracks.
Everett went looking for a new approach following the recording of an interlocking trilogy of albums released in 2009-10 on which, he said, he explored "three basic themes: desire, heartbreak and renewal." Though disappointment has been a re-occurring topic of his compositions since his debut solo album in '85, perhaps less evident in Everett's body of music, which often has a dour patina, is a lyrical view toward hope and a sense that drive and wit can produce a positive result, if only temporarily.
Raised in McLean, Virginia, Mark Oliver Everett endured a harsh childhood and adolescence. As detailed in his autobiography – "Things the Grandchildren Should Know," published in 2008 – his father Hugh was a major figure in quantum theory, his mother a soft-hearted woman given to crying jags, his beloved sister Liz a rebel with a taste for bad men and drugs. The family displayed neither warmth nor transparency, and young Everett took to self-parenting, developing a will power to move to Los Angeles to begin a career in music when he knew not a soul in the city. Before leaving, he found the body of his father, who died in bed. Later, his sister committed suicide and his mother died of lung cancer. His 1998 album "Electro-Shock Blues" addresses the loss of his sister and mother, and much like the trilogy, it reveals his desire to assimilate experiences and communicate through song. For the record, Everett has neither children nor grandchildren; the book shares its title with the closing track of Eels's '05 compilation album "Blinking Lights and Other Revelations."
Eels begins a tour on Valentine's Day. "It's looking like it's going to be a long one," he said. (For dates and locations, visit here) After many years of low pay and modest recognition, Everett feels the band has the kind of following that can make the tour a treat.
"Often times, I thought I was the only one who cared," he said. "Now it's kind of cool to look up and see an audience out there."

Edwards Takes Richmond, Chase Field Set
RICHMOND, Va. -- It was Clint Bowyer who spun with seven laps left in Saturday night's Federated Auto Parts 400 at Richmond International Raceway, but the fortunes of four other drivers turned on a dime with that turn of events.
Yes, Carl Edwards won the race, streaking away after a restart with three laps left and beating Kurt Busch to the finish line by .668 seconds. But Edwards' second victory of the season, his first at Richmond and the 21st of his career played second fiddle to the radical change of fortune that irrevocably altered the seasons of four of his competitors.
After Bowyer caused the fifth caution with his spin, Joey Logano had knocked four-time champion Jeff Gordon out of the top 10 in the standings and out of a berth in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup by one point.
The caution also played into the hands of Martin Truex Jr., Bowyer's teammate, who claimed the second of two Wild Card positions in the Chase in a tiebreaker over Ryan Newman.
Before the caution, third-place finisher Newman had grabbed the race lead from Edwards on Lap 391 and was cruising to a win that would have kept him in the Chase and knocked Truex out. At the same time, Gordon was running seventh and Logano 25th, with Gordon provisionally in the top 10 and Logano out.
A victory for Newman, which would have been his second of the year, would have knocked one-time winner Logano out of the Chase completely, but that all changed with Bowyer's spin. Newman stopped for four tires and came off pit road in fifth place and could only gain two positions in the final three-lap dash.
Under the caution, Logano took a wave-around that left him one lap down, and the three positions he gained on the subsequent restart were enough to keep Gordon out of the Chase for only the second time since NASCAR's 10-race playoff debuted in 2004.
After the race, Bowyer scoffed at the idea he helped propel Truex into the Chase by spinning on purpose.
"I think we had something going wrong," said Bowyer, who led 72 laps but lost a lap when Jimmie Johnson's blown tire caused the fourth caution on Lap 343 of 400. "The 88 (Dale Earnhardt Jr.) got up underneath me. I had so much wheel, by the time I got to the gas, he was underneath me. I spun out…
"It's unfortunate. I know it's a lot of fun for you guys to write a lot of wacky things. Go ahead, if you want to. Get creative. But don't look too much into it."
Comparatively speaking, Earnhardt (13th Saturday), Busch and Greg Biffle (12th) had little trouble clinching three of the five remaining spots in the Chase. But there was other drama that didn't involve the Chase at all.
Edwards took four new tires to Paul Menard's two on the final pit stop on Lap 394. Menard came off pit road as the race leader with Edwards second, but Edwards beat Menard to the stripe for the final decisive restart. Edwards lauded NASCAR for making what he considered the correct judgment call.
"What happened on that last restart is Paul had two tires," Edwards said. "I knew he was going to be at a big disadvantage with grip. He took off. I waited until he went to go. As we were going, his car actually touched my door. I think it surprised him a little bit or something. He turned a little bit. I heard his engine speed up. He spun the tires.
"At that point, I really have a choice to either lift off the throttle and wait for him to try to gather it up -- I've never seen a guy able to gather it up that quickly when they spin that bad -- or go and hope NASCAR understands that he spun his tires. In this case, they did."

Hello all, I found this while metal detecting a mid 1800's church in Buffalo NY. It says Gen. Benjamin Harrison, he has 2 stars on each side of him (Right and left). There is a star around him with a design in each of the stars points, a bugle, crossed swords, anchor and one I cant identify. It has the characteristics of a GAR medal but it could be a presidential button as he ran for office in 1888. Looking it up on the net, I saw many medals attached to ribbons with the same shape and star design but not the same picture of his head. The back is very minerilazed but appears to have a small elevated "dot" in the center that could have been attached to something. Any help identifying would be appreciated.

All of you, who have dreamt of losing weight and developing rock hard pecks and a six pack without success, take a moment and read this.
There is a reason for weight gain! Often the problems stem from a person's past; events or memories that are nesting in your mind and you don't know either how to deal with them or face them. The emerging result is often over-eating.
Over eating is for many people a way to fill a void, coping with unresolved issues and feelings. Hurt, guilt and emotional anguish are pushed under cover and the original cause for the problem keeps lurking inside the brain and hence controls the emotions and actions. The end result is that many people find themselves eating their way through their unresolved issues, causing rapid weight gain and general misery.
Memories of being bullied in school, being raised in an alcoholic environment or other unresolved experiences, might result in low self-esteem and negative self-worth. Living in the shadows, forsaking your own self for others, taking blame and responsibility for others are key signs of codependency. Individuals often find it difficult to put themselves first, to love themselves and take care of themselves.
To lose weight is one thing, to start life anew is another. The weight loss process starts in the mind and the lifestyle change for lasting results, starts with a clean-up of the psyche. This takes work, more work and still more work.
An experienced weight loss consultant can help an individual address the most common problems and together the over-eater and the consultant can find a solution that will work, resulting in successful life-style change and permanent weight loss.
Your body is yours, the temple of your soul. Don't house other people's problems, harmful attitudes, ideas or things you cannot change in body, in your soul, in your belly or on your shoulders.

Drew and Jake's Warm Neutral Nursery
Name: Drew & Jake (2 months)
Location: Nashville, TN
We are renting our current house, but I still wanted to make a special nursery for our twin boys. The room originally was a pinkish beige with wallpaper border and a brass "boob light" as my husband calls them.
We replaced the light fixture with a modern ceiling fan and painted the room greige with a white border. I love how the paint treatment came out. It makes up for the lack of any kind of crown molding and visually grounds the room. Nursery furniture is all so low, and even with art it can feel like you have miles of empty space from eye level up but not here.
I made the window cornice myself using a combination of a couple of different Pinterest tutorials (it's foam!). It required no sewing or staple guns - just duct tape, and it's resting on two L-brackets but not actually mounted to anything, so it comes down easily if needed. I also made the art on the sides of the crib. The art above the bookshelf was a splurge a few years ago.
The bookshelf is a Target cheapie, and thankfully you can't tell, but I put the darn backer board on the wrong side and had to hand paint the unfinished edge (why does stuff like that always happen?) The green egg-looking thing is a nightlight by J.Schatz and it throws these AWESOME squiggly stars on the wall in the dark.
The cube storage in the bottom of the closet offers the maximum amount of storage for the lowest price I could find. And we mounted the baby monitor cameras on the opposite wall from the cribs because it is recommended to keep the cords at least three feet from the crib for safety purposes- something I wasn't aware of at first!
The only air vent in the room is behind the glider, and although we left a fair amount of clearance I feel much better now that the ceiling fan is in. It provides nice airflow in any weather, and the light has a dimmer that can be controlled by remote. Not to mention that it matches the cribs too!
The mobiles are the only electronic ones that work with these Babyletto cribs (hopefully this saves someone from having to return something else like I had to).The letters are the cardboard ones from Joann's, and I made the paint color from a few leftover samples. They perfectly match the blue in the crib sheets. I used the same paint for the mats in the two white frames (they were originally brown frames with yellow mats).
The ampersand is my favorite accessory. I had a vision of what I wanted it to be from the beginning and was on the lookout for a long time. There are SO many different fonts you can have an ampersand in, but this one is my favorite. I ended up getting it custom made on Etsy. It's iron and the hangers have about a half an inch riser in them to make it stand off from the wall. It makes for very cool shadows and gives it a 3-D effect that really makes it stand out. I love it!
The crib sheets are from Serena and Lily (love!), and they are where I drew the color palette from for the whole room. The skirts are 14″ drops with box pleats from Carousel Designs. They were originally white, but after looking at them for a while I wanted some more contrast and dyed them (in the washer!) using a combination of RIT dyes I couldn't replicate if I wanted to. It was some amount of Gray, Royal Blue, and Tan.
The glider-and-a-half is a new design from Little Castle. Besides being beautiful it is super functional, especially for twins. I can fit in it with my huge My Brest Friend twin pillow and still have about six inches of room in the seat.

Maine man guilty of manslaughter in beating death
BANGOR, Maine (AP) — A jury has found a Maine man guilty of manslaughter in the beating death of a construction company owner in a property dispute.
Fifty-year-old Peter Robinson, of Bradford, was on trial for murder in the November 2011 death of 71-year-old David Trask, of Hudson. But Tuesday afternoon, a Penobscot County Superior Court jury found him guilty of the lesser charge of manslaughter.
Robinson and Trask had a history of disputes over access issues regarding land owned by Robinson.
Prosecutors and Robinson's attorney agreed that Trask came at Robinson with a crowbar and that Robinson grabbed the metal bar and beat him to death. But Robinson claimed he acted in self-defense.
Manslaughter carries a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison.

Ticket Packages
Not sure if this is thread worthy but I need help finding a solution for 8 tickets together for the Nebraska game next year. We made friends with some Nebraska fans in the Big House back in 2011 and then traveled to Lincoln this year to tailgate with them and experience Big Red Nation. It was a great time and they are great people!
I feel the need to return the favor and he is telling me that he wants to bring six friends with he and his wife. How do I go about finding 8 tickets together? Price really isn't a huge factor. Thanks in advance!
Go Blue!

3 Beautiful Desk Organizers for the Tech Generation
It used to be desktop organizers only had to accommodate for sheets of paper, pens, and maybe a few paperclips. These days, we're more prone to worry where to park our smartphone or our wireless mouse once we're done for the day. The STATION Caddy above is an example of traditional material shaped for the tech needs of today, slotted to fit an iPhone, alongside a myriad of other home office items that would otherwise be cluttering your desk area...
Made of bamboo, the STATION modern caddy by Nathan Mummert is available for pre-order for $39.99 at Bite My Apple, and would work equally well for an entryway landing strip as it would for a desk.
The Tobago Pear desk organizer and tablet stand ($93.00) is similar in shape to the STATION, but instead of caddy sections, this pear wood organizer is fitted with slotted holders for a full size tablet for both portrait and landscape mode (fits iPad 2, iPad 3, Samsung Galaxy tablets, and ASUS models) and an array of various width objects, with a parking spot for a pen or stylus.
Designer Caroline Gomez calls her work "natural and slow design", and her work does exhibit the quality of a slowly evolved form born of natural forces rather than being machine-made. Her TABLETTE PÖL desk organizer (about $46.00) is also designed to store paper and pens, with the addition of a complementary stackable catch-all section for stationery, a smartphone, or whatever else might roam your desk without a place to stay put.

Assassin's Creed Rearmed Review
Assassin's Creed offers more than just hack and slash action. To be an assassin superstar, you'll need great observational skills and patience. It's a series that puts more of a focus on stealth than button-mashing, and the newest addition to the Assassin's Creed iOS family, Rearmed, is no different. This version is solely for multiplayer challenges, but relies on the freemium formula to suck you in.
While the console version of Assassin's Creed is heavy on story, Rearmed has none to speak of. You are simply placed in a historic village with a maximum of three other players, each playing a unique assassin. Each player is given a specific target, which is to say he or she must assassinate another player.
You can't just go around stunning people.
The trick, however, is to find this target among a crowd of non-player characters. You must learn how these characters move and watch for how an assassin would move differently. Meanwhile, you must avoid being killed yourself. Luckily, your character can earn different skills to avoid assassination. For instance, you can disguise yourself as another character to throw an assassin off your scent, or you can earn the ability to instantly move to another spot on the map.
If all of this sounds familiar, that's because Rearmed is an revamped version of a previous app called Assassin's Creed II Multiplayer. That app is no longer available on the App Store, but it was a very similar game. One thing that's changed is that the graphics have been given an extra layer of polish. At times, you'll be shocked at how beautiful this game can look, even with a bird's eye view for most of the game.
It's like the Renaissance version of Google Maps.
While this game may sound intriguing and original, it's disappointing to see how many bugs it has. All too often, the app will completely crash. When it's not crashing, the loading times to start a new online game will make you think the game forgot about you. Even worse, there is no penalty for quitting a game. This means that if you've scored the first point and gained the upper hand, your opponent can and often will simply quit, thus robbing you of your points and your victory.
If these bugs get fixed in an update, Multiplayer Rearmed could be a great online multiplayer game. You can play via Bluetooth with your friends, which would sidestep many of the online frustrations, but until the crashes and bugs are worked out, this is one game that is more dead than deadly.

From staff
A crash at the intersection of State Road 207 and South Holmes Boulevard left two people with minor injuries early Wednesday morning.
According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, an underage driver in a stolen Nissan Pathfinder collided with a Volkswagon Jetta driven by Saqib Raza of St. Augustine. Raza was taken to Flagler Hospital with minor injuries. The driver also had minor injuries.
Two male juveniles, ages 12 and 14, were in the vehicle, the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office reported. They were both arrested and charged with vehicle grand theft and possession of stolen property. The suspects' names were not released because they are juveniles.
The FHP report said that charges of careless driving and driving without a license were filed. Additional charges are pending an investigation.
The wreck occurred near 1 a.m. when the Pathfinder, which was believed to be traveling at a high rate of speed, attempted to turn onto Holmes from S.R. 207. However, the driver couldn't negotiate the turn and collided with Raza's car, which was stopped on Holmes while waiting to turn left on S.R. 207.

MILFORD - A Temple Street home owned by a Vietnam War veteran was demolished Monday after officials ruled it condemned.
According to Highway Surveyor Scott Crisafulli, the two-story, four-bedroom colonial home was demolished by the highway department to save the town the cost of hiring an outside contractor. The structure, he said, had severely deterioriated.
The town took the property by eminent domain because the�homeowner owed a significant amount in back taxes, Crisafulli said.
Health Officer Paul Mazzuchelli said the home was condemned in November after neighbors complained of blight.
When Mazzuchelli and other officials visited the home, they�found it�in a "state of deterioration," including holes in the roof, overgrown vegetation and mold and mildew throughout.
The roof, he said, was so damaged that moisture was dripping down into the bottom floor, causing the wood floors to buckle.
Also, the upstairs bathroom was not functional and there was no hot water in the house, he said.
"I felt as a health officer, there were a number of conditions that could endanger the health and safety of the occupant," Mazzuchelli said, adding that the Board of Health made the ultimate decision to condemn the property.
"We felt as though it was not fit for human habitation," he said.
At the time, Mazzuchelli said he was also a commissioner on the housing authority, and coordinated with Executive Director Patricia Morrill to help get the veteran get into a housing authority residence on Birmingham Court within a week of the home being condemned.
He said Veterans Agent John Pilla was also involved in the situation. Pilla could not be reached for comment.
"We had the whole town helping him," he said.
He added that the town, neighbors and the veteran all received a helping hand.
"We were able to help the neighborhood by starting the ball rolling to get rid of blight, but we also got the occupant into a safe and sanitary home," he said.
Town officials do not yet know what will happen to the property.

The Bolsheviks in power
When the Bolsheviks seized power in Petrograd in November 1917, they faced many problems. Not least was the fact that the Bolsheviks only controlled a very small part of Russia – basically the land between Petrograd and Moscow, a rectangular band of territory 30 miles by 400 miles. Outside of this territory, there were many groups that were opposed to the Bolsheviks. Some areas broke away from Russia to become semi-autonomous regions. Even in the land between Moscow and Petrograd, the Bolsheviks were far from being free of enemies.
However, the Bolsheviks did have a number of major advantages over their opponents. They had a leader who was driven by energy and desire – Lenin. His military commander was equally as gifted – Leon Trotsky. The party was actually reasonably small in numbers. This made party discipline much easier to control and maintain. The party had a central body of authority called the National Council. This elected the party's commissars (ministers) and Lenin was the president. Such tight organisation was vital for success. No other political party in Russia had such organisation and, as a result, the Bolsheviks had a major advantage over them.
The first task for Lenin was to withdraw Russia from a highly unpopular war. Both sides benefited from this. The Germans could shift all their forces on the Eastern Front to the Western Front. Lenin could concentrate all his resources on what was happening in Russia. On December 14th, 1917, an armistice was concluded between Russia and the Central Powers.
The start of the negotiations with the Germans did not go smoothly. Trotsky did not share Lenin's belief that it should be peace at any price. As Foreign Commissary, Trotsky started the first talks. Trotsky believed that the Russian Revolution would be the catalyst for a world revolution with the workers across the world showing their support for the Bolsheviks. He therefore felt that the Germans were not in the strong position they believed themselves to be as, in Trotsky's mind, the workers in Germany would rise up in support of the Bolsheviks. He even appealed to the German workers directly. When it became clear that he was wrong and he failed to soften the German demands, he walked out of the negotiations.
The Germans went back on the armistice on February 12th, 1918 and advanced a further 100 miles into Russia in just 4 days. Lenin then took charge and ordered that there should be peace at any price. The result was the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. This treaty took away from Russia all the land gained since Peter the Great and it separated the Ukraine. Germany was to take from her new territory what she felt was needed to fight the war. When Germans complained about the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, many reminded them of the terms the Germans were willing to impose on the Russians with Brest-Litovsk.
However, the treaty gave Lenin what he needed – time to concentrate solely on Russia. Many groups had formed that wanted the Bolsheviks destroyed. In the Russian Civil War, these were to be known as the Whites. They had little in common, other than a desire to rid Russia of the Bolsheviks.
Lenin also faced an immediate problem in the rectangle of land controlled by the Bolsheviks. Kerensky had promised elections for a constituent assembly while head of the Provisional Government. In July 1917, Lenin had called for a constituent assembly, so he could hardly campaign against one now. Therefore, in December 1917, elections were held for a constituent assembly. The Social Revolutionaries gained most seats (370 out of 703) while the Bolsheviks only got 168 seats. It was obvious that the constituent assembly would be highly critical of Lenin and the Bolsheviks – especially the 100 Mensheviks elected to it. Those voted to the constituent assembly were allowed to meet in the Tauride Palace. The Palace was then surrounded by Red Guards and those in it were told to disperse. It was the first and last time it met.
Lenin could now concentrate on the impending civil war. He also needed to introduce an economic system that was commensurate with his beliefs and one that would benefit those under Bolsheviks rule. This economic policy was to be called 'War Communism'.

On examination of those behind the filmic curtain—creating the sonic palette through which to feel a world—any number of descriptors seem to apply. Magicians, wizards and puppet masters who have trained themselves in the art of emotional manipulation, sound editors are too often among those craftsmen and women taken for granted, when the reality is that no film could function, or pull the audience in toward the screen, without their dedicated, passionate work. The supervising sound editors behind Paramount Pictures' surprise horror smash A Quiet Place—deftly directed by John Krasinski—Erik Aadal and Ethan Van der Ryn are among those whose contributions are so undeniable that they happen to elevate the craft as a whole.

In 2010 a small group of geeks was wondering what to work on next. We read some blog posts and were immediately transformed with purpose. Back in 2010 email overload wasn't nearly as bad as it is today, and our purpose has only become clearer and our mission grander since.
We had a few rules for whatever the solution would be:
And this is how SaneBox came to life. It's a simple service that analyzes your past behavior (which emails you open, which you respond to, how quickly, how often, etc) and determines importance of incoming emails without ever looking at the content (only the headers). It moves unimportant emails out of the Inbox into a separate folder called SaneLater and summarizes them in a digest. It works anywhere you check your email (since it's just an email folder).
After listening to our customers, we built lots of other features:
Stuart, Jason, Peter, Garvin, Marcelo, Mario, Mark, Forrest, Frederico, Dmitri, Scott, Stephanie, Thomas, Tony and Kristena work on this full time (and we literally mean 24/7/365, it's scary). A few more wonderful folks help once in a while. Most of us have worked together before at Gamesville, Lycos, Gamelogic, Verifiable, Overture, Yahoo!, Wanto. We're really one big happy family.
We are always looking for engineers and sales people. If you are one of them and would like to work on solving one of the biggest problems in the modern workplace, send us your resume.
"SaneBox is amazing and worth every penny it costs"
"This is by far the easiest way to fix email overload"

2013 Golden Globes Red Carpet Fashion – Claire Danes Is Ravishing in Red
Claire Danes just gave birth last month and she was already in fightin' form on the red carpet at the 2013 Golden Globes, looking ravishing in a red Versace dress with a low-dipping, halter neckline and a long skirt with a slit.
The crimson hue popped against her pale skin and her blonde hair, and it's one of the best looks we've seen on the Globes carpet this year. The dress was cinched at the hip with a jeweled accent and the ruching was the extra bit that elevated the dress.
The 'Homeland' actress and new mother joked that's she's been lounging around in sweatpants for a while, so she was happy to get dressed up.
All the stars were complaining that it was unseasonably chilly in Los Angeles tonight (Jan. 13). We would've suggested they all crowd around Danes for warmth since — because she was one hot mama.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. - With the Penn State Open behind them, and the Dernell Every Open a success, the Yale women's fencing team is looking forward to opening its season with the Brandeis Open on Dec. 12. The Brandeis Open will kick off four months of competition for the Bulldogs that will, according to captain Lidia Gocheva, be helped by the strong team spirit that the fencers have developed over the course of the year.
Captain Lidia Gocheva (foil) and junior Rebecca Moss (epee), will lead the Bulldogs when they head to Waltham, Mass., for their first competition of the season. Gocheva qualified for the NCAA Championship last year and was named second team All-Ivy. Moss was named first team All-Ivy last year and qualified for the NCAA Championship during her freshman year.
This year's foil squad is looking very strong. Gocheva is looking forward to very good results from freshmen Valeria Makeeva and Katharine Pitt as they make their debuts in collegiate fencing. They both placed in the top 16 at the Penn State Open. Junior Katherine Arden echoed this sentiment by noting how impressed she was by "the dedication of this year's freshmen and the strength of the freshmen foilists in particular."
The Bulldogs' epee squad has also proven that it can perform well. Last year at the IFA Championships (where most of the squad's major rivals were in attendance), Moss, senior Abigail Fraeman, sophomore Pruittiporn Kerdchoochuen and sophomore Tasha Garcia placed second among all epee squads.
"I'm really excited about the team this year!," said Fraeman. "We only lost one senior last year, and our freshmen are very strong. It was really frustrating last year that we missed beating several Ivy League schools by only a few touches, but I'm sure this year we'll do much better. Our team chemistry is awesome, and I know this will help us pull through when we're in tight situations. We already proved we are a strong squad at the Penn State Open, and I can't wait to see what we're capable of when we face our first team competitions at Brandeis."
The sabre squad will be lead by junior Katherine Arden and junior Farrah Kimovec. The squad is also awaiting junior Jennifer Ivers' return.
"She is studying abroad for the fall semester, but will be an essential part of the team in the spring," noted captain Gocheva.
After the Brandeis Invitational on Dec. 12, the Bulldogs head to Vassar on Jan. 17 for their first one-on-one competition. The following weekend sees the team heading down to the NYU Invitational in New York City. On Jan. 31, the Bulldogs take on Sacred Heart at home. This will be their last competition before the Ivy South Competition on Feb. 8 hosted by Columbia. This competition and the Ivy North Competition in Providence, R.I., on Feb. 22 will be the most important team competitions according to captain Gocheva. Between the two Ivy competitions, the Bulldogs will send individual fencers to compete at Junior Olympics from Feb. 13 to Feb. 16.
Yale's fencers finish out their season with the IFA Championship in Waltham, Mass., on Feb. 28. Although the IFA Championships are separate from the NCAA schedule, they are a premier fencing tournament and the oldest collegiate championship in the country. They also serve as an important tune-up for the NCAA Northeast Regional Championships.
The NCAA Regional Championship will take place on Mar. 8 in Cambridge, Mass. The NCAA National Championship will occur Mar. 21-22 in University Park, Pa. Fencers who win 25% of their regular season matches qualify for Regionals. To qualify for the NCAA Championships, fencers must finish in the top 8. The team is optimistic about seeing Yale fencers in both of these events, in what it hopes will be the end of a great season.
