text: Mountaineer Great, Owen Schmitt Opens Music Venue, Restaurant, and Bar Mountaineer Great, Owen Schmitt Opens Music Venue, Restaurant, and Bar Business Pros SHARE Caleb Wygal , January 12, 2013 / 322 0 For Immediate Release January 14, 2013 MORGANTOWN, WV – Renovations are underway at 245 Cheat Road in Morgantown, WV in preparation for Schmitt's Saloon opening next month. Grand Opening is scheduled for the beginning of February. Owen Schmitt and his partner, Todd King, share a common vision- to create a place for anyone and everyone to hang out, party, and play or listen to great music. Schmitt is a legend in the state of West Virginia, and his love for the state would rival anyone's. This vision is a bar, restaurant, and music venue with a West Virginian country flair. While playing in the NFL, he was approached by Todd King, a successful restaurateur, who painted a vision on how to bring Morgantown and North Central West Virginia a new concept around Schmitt's love for the state and his love for music. "I still don't believe this is really happening. I couldn't be more stoked. I get to combine all my loves into one place that I will call home. Music, food, sports and the state of West Virginia," Schmitt stated. The location has been completely gutted and will resemble and old fashion saloon with all the modern technologies. Throughout the new restaurant and bar, you will see barn wood. All the barn wood used is from old barns dismantled in Monongalia and Preston Counties. The floors were replaced with cabin grade oak boards and the bar is made out of antique oak from the 1830s. You even have to walk through real saloon doors to go to the outhouse (well, the restroom). "Providing the barn wood for Schmitt's Saloon has been like a dream of mine. I love recycling salvaged wood, I love music and I think Owen is a great guy," stated Scott Frederick who tackled the task of designing the dining room, and providing the barn wood and tin. Frederick is also a percussionist and plays washboard with Schmitt and the Davisson Brothers on occasion. Schmitt's Saloon will be open daily for lunch and serve food late into the evening. The menu is like no other in Morgantown. It's cooking with a flair. You can expect the traditional classics such as sweet potato fries and burgers, however, the fries come with bacon, banana chips and a peanut sauce while the burger is stuffed full of cheese that oozes out. Unique items will also be featured such as bourbon glazed deviled eggs, secretly cooked wings and funnel cakes. The entertainment scene will revolve around music and sports. There will be music played up to four times a week. The sound system is all brand new and will rival any system in the entire state. A "jumbotron" is being built in the dining area that is sure to make people think of the Dallas Cowboys and Jerryland, except this jumbotron is made of tin and barn wood. Throughout a normal week, you could find yourself involved in one of our many leagues or contests including corn hole, pool, beer pong, hot dog eating contests and much more. "If you love West Virginia, love Good Food, and love Good Music, you have now found your second home at Schmitt's Saloon," Schmitt continued. The hours of operation are Monday through Saturday from 11:00am to last call nightly and Sunday 12 to 12. A new website and Facebook page will be launched soon.

When someone is forced to do sexual things with people when they don't want to it's kinda like rape...if your friend knows someone who is being sexualy abused she should tell some one preferabley an adult or the police...need anything ask*
On Sunday I'm going to the beach wwith my family and another family who has a 14 year old son. He's a year older than me and he's cute!!! I have these one pieces that i look good in, but i also have some bikinis. The problem with my bikinis is my nipples show through the fabric!!! Yuck!! Should i wear the bikini anyway or go with a one piece?
Like if you mean you can see your actual nipple then go with the one piece but if you can just see when they get hard then wear the bikini theres nothing wrong with having hard nipples!=]
need anything ask*
Okay, I know this might sound stupid, but in October, there's a Halloween Dance, and they encourage you to wear costumes. What are some good halloween costumes? I was thinking of being a pink lady, or dorothy, from the wizard of oz. Nothing to drastic, because I go to a catholic school. Thanks

oh my god, im the one asking all of those period questions. any way, it looks like the blood is coming from my butt. nd its been for 3 days. but i like have all of the period symptoms. so on the pad, where does the blood end up?? towards the back, front, middle, anyting else you want to tell me. ..
It depends...if your sitting prolly the middle same with standing but if your laying on your back its gunna go to the back and if your laying on your stomach then it'll prolly go to the front...maybe to make sure you should try using tampons i TOTALLY perfer them because with pads its like your sitting in your own YICK! you know so0o0o just try tampons they don't hurt just read the directions and do it right (trust me reading the directions makes it so much easier) then if its still funked up then i would talk to your mom if i were you and see if you could go to the doctor to figure out whats wrong! hope i helped need anything ask*
what can you say to someone like someone asked me to talk dirty to them and i didnt know what to say please help how do you talk dirty to a guy?
ill rate
Well it's really when your describing doing things with that person saying like i'm there with you and i'm puttin your_____in my mouth and yea...i shall stop there! need anything ask*
Ok, Well today i went to the bathroom and i look at my underwear and there was clearish white jelly stuff on my underwear. . what does that mean.
It's discharge it means your prolly gunna get your period soon so be prepaired! need anything ask*
this isnt really sex but i didnt know what to put it under. anyways i trimed down there and shaved near where the blood comes out (i forget what its called) and now where i shaved has little red bumps. is this bad and how do i get rid of them?
it's just razor burn it will go away on its own just don't itch because it will make it worse...you could try using lotion to make them go away and take breaks inbetween the times you shave only do it if you really have to or want to. hope i helped need anything ask*
I completely accept that no one else can tell someone whether they are in love or not but does anyone else find it a little silly when people say they are completely in love with someone they have never dated or kissed, or dated for a week or so?
I almost find it offensive. I don't like that word being taken so lightly and thrown around. Does this annoy anyone else here, or am I being too judgmental?
No your deffinately not being to judgmental i know people who through that word around like nothing and they just say it just because they're going out with the person and they don't mean it and who is to say that if someone for example: me and my boyfriend of almost 2 years say i love you to eachother-that we don't mean it...when your inlove and love someone you just know. people use "love" the wrong way because they really don't know wat true love is until after they've had their heart broken a couple times. when you find someone you trully love and you say it and mean it then people say that your not inlove or you don't know wat love is then that person can go screw off because they don't know how you feel for someone and just because your young or w/e doesnt mean you can't trully love someone or be inlove! it really gets on my nerves! people through it around when its not true then wonder why people get hurt
My life really sucks. The guy i like has this really popular and pretty girlfriend. All the people at school make fun of me. I do not have alot of friends. My family doesn't seem like they care for me too much. I even sometimes think of suicide.
At school all of the people make fun of me. I am no dork but people make fun of me the way i dress and just plain make fun of me. On my school lacrosse team people always make fun of me. Not to brag but i am probably the best person on the team and yet there are still people making fun of me of the things i do. On my soccer team some of the girls make fun of me too. I do not have alot of friends either. My dad always bothers me to have someone come over and he asks me the number of people i called and its only about 3 because i really don't have alot of friends to call. My family is always yelling at me to. I try to be nice but then my sister makes some smart remark and then my parents expect me to be nice to her. And they think she is like the perfect angel child that does everything right. My sister even sometimes makes fun of me by saying i have no friends. Suicide is also something i think about and life is something i want to take away because it really sucks. Please add some advice to this column. It would really help. Even if it is just about one thing. Please help.
you shouldn't let wat other people say get to you your, your own independent person and you have your own look and style your oviously and individual that duznt wanna be another teenage whore, or preppy person or w/e and if people have a problem with you just be like fuck off! if all they do is have time to make fun of you then they oviously dont have much of a life and hun suicide is deff. not the answer to your problems trust me theres people in this world who have been through way more than you prolly have and they've managed to make it through so i'm sure you can. and just because a girl is pretty and popular duznt mean jack shit its personality that counts and dont worry atleast you have some true friends and why would you want to be friends with people who act like assholes all the time and make fun of people to put them down for fun because they have nothing better to do. don't worry you can make more friends maybe they wont be popular or w/e they could be geeky but who cares atleast they'd be true unlike other people dont worry about it just be strong and dont take shit from no one trust me when i was younger i used to get made fun of all the time and i still do sumtimes but i dont let it get to me because i dont care wat people think and if they have a problem with me or have to say something about wat i look like or my clothes or w/e i just ignore them and say fuck off because if you dont need me then i dont need you plain n simple! well sry my answers so long but i hope i helped hun and like i sed stay strong and dont give in to peoples stupid bull shit! need anything ask*
okay this isnt really a sex question.. but here it is. im 14/f and i dont have that big of a chest. At my camp, the guys are always making fun of me for it. My doctor recently said within the next two years i would be done growing.I dont want a small chest, but im afraid thats what im going to get. When i reach my peak with height, is the rest of my body gunna continue to develop? or am i stuck this way forever?
i'll rate high if i get good answers.
Well i would tell those guys to go screw off! its not about the size of your chest its about personality and all that stuff i mean i'm only a 34B and i'm gunna be turning 15 in a month but my boyfriend has NO problem with them he LOVES my boobs the way they are! your chest size will most likely grow if your relatives have big boobs. but dont worry about it if they never grow which im not saying they wont you might meet a guy who doesnt care and likes/loves you for you not the size of your tits! now let me let you in on a lil something i used to wear padded bras all the time but then i stopped because wats the use its like tryna be something your not and ppl would kno if you looked like a B or something in clothes and flat in a bathing suit so i wouldnt recommend wearing padded bra's plus they're not that comfortable and its like your just fake you know and it also shows that your not comfortable with who you are and what you've got and pluss guys don't always like girls with big breasts actually a lotta guys prefer girls with smaller ones! well i hope i helped if you need anything ask*
alright well heres my deal, i'm 14/f and my best friend well i LOVE her brother i went out with him secretley but then she found outt and she was pissed..so then we had to break up bcus his parents were always yellin @ him and she wuld always cry about it i dnt see wat the big deal was but anyways we got back together and we got sexually active, agen she found outt and we had to break it off except this time it was BIGG. I still love him and he still lvoes me we arent reallyy dating but together my mom says i can do better but i def. think hes it. wat shuld i do? end the relationship or just go for it and forget about his sister.
If you REALLY love him then forget about his sister and go for it i mean be like if you don't like it then to bad i love him and there's nothing you can do about it! that's what i would do! well hope i helped need anything ask*
okay, i use tampons during my period, but im nervous to go swimming with them in. Im afraid the water will soak the string, making the blood travel out trhough the tampon string. Does this happen or am i worrying for nothing?
Your worrying for nothing thats one of the uses of tampons so when you go swimming and stuff like that dont worry you'll be fine! need anything ask*
when do u start to put in a tampon? how long after your first period, etc. . .
It doesn't matter if you wanna use them then do it, they're way better than wearing pads! need anything ask*
What age do you think a girl should be to go to a gyno? Not for birth control, just for health check ups? Thanks!
I'm pretty sure when you turn 18 unless you go on birth control or something is wrong with you! need anything ask*
ok.. i am 13 and a female. i already got my period like in march. i usually run like 27 days. and i was supposed to get it last week. like. i know if you miss your period that is a symptom of pregnacy. but i have not had sex or anything or like takin pills. like is it normal for my period to be late. like i just got it but that was in march. so i am so confused. and on thursday i am going to hurricane harbour in six flags. i am scared like will i get my period there? or before. i am so nervous. i mean. hurricane harbour is my birhday party. so i do not want to miss it or get it there. i am going to bring like pads and stuff there. but i know i should wear a tampon just in case but my mom says i am to young to use them. but i could. but i am to scared. so. im so confused.
like im not only asking if i could be pregnant but like... im scared.
Wow you seem pretty clueless no effence but yea... just use them anyways its not like your moms gunna check your vagina ok! so if you get it just use them i didn't like using them when i was younger because i used them incorrectly but make sure you read all directions it helps a lot trust me! well good luck! need anything ask*

Clint Dempsey's 10th goal of the campaign rescued a point for Fulham after they had twice trailed to Aston Villa in a topsy-turvy 2-2 draw at Villa Park.
Villa twice looked set for victory after a John Pantsil own goal and Kyle Walker's first league goal put them in the ascendancy.
But Andy Johnson and then Dempsey struck back for Mark Hughes' side.

By 2015, we aim to have eliminated waste to landfill from our operations. We're finding new and better ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle.
As with most products, making alcoholic beverages generates waste at almost every stage of the product lifecycle. Where possible, we aim to reduce the volume of materials used, and reuse or recycle the waste from our operations in ways that bring benefits to our business, the environment, and local communities.
Minimising the waste from our production sites and offices is not only directly linked to cost savings, it has a cumulative effect on our efforts to reduce carbon emissions, water use, and other environmental impacts of our business.
The vast majority of our waste is non hazardous, including organic matter like yeast remaining from the brewing processes; kieselguhr, which is a soft rock used for filtration; and the pulped labels from the bottles which we recycle. Other waste streams include damaged packaging, sludge from wastewater treatment, boiler ash, and office waste.
Less than 0.5% of our total waste is hazardous; it includes oils, acids, bases, and construction waste. These are used subject to government regulations and environmental consents, and are disposed of through specialist contractors.
We aim to eliminate waste to landfill from our operations by 2015, and our strategy is based on five platforms.
We can reduce the amount of waste going to landfill by eliminating certain materials from our operations. For example, new beer membrane filtration systems at a number of our breweries have eliminated the need to use kieselguhr.
Making our operations more efficient can reduce the overall amount of materials we use.
Where opportunities exist, by-products from distilling and brewing that were once sent to landfill are now being used by farmers in animal feed.
Measures such as improved segregation methods can significantly reduce waste to landfill.
Where materials cannot be recycled, as a last resort we explore their potential for energy recovery through thermal combustion, working with partners using advanced technology to minimise the impact of converting waste to energy.
Our GREENiQ employee engagement programme has accelerated our progress by raising awareness of the need to reduce waste, as well as other environmental impacts, not only at our supply sites but also in our offices.
For specific information about the progress we are making against our waste target, please see our Annual Report.
In anticipation of our current targets coming to an end in 2015, we have created new Sustainability and Responsibility targets to 2020. To find out more click here.

Yves Smith of Naked Capitalism submits:
A Bloomberg story today tells us that CreditSights found that AAA ratings for a new type of credit derivative may be as likely to default as junk.
``If you assume defaults and downgrades come in bunches rather than being evenly spaced out, CPDOs' default rates are more what you would expect for low junk ratings than for triple- A,'' David Watts, a CreditSights analyst in London, said in a telephone interview yesterday.
Prices of CPDOs dropped to as little as 70 percent of face value last month.
The (relatively) good news for rating agencies is that the amount of CPDOs outstanding is small. Bloomberg estimates the market as being in excess of $4 billion. But with rating agency credibility in tatters, more evidence of their shortcomings is the last thing they need.

Fitness Fest This Weekend
The Fourth Annual Festival Foods La Crosse Fitness Festival is this weekend and event planner, Pam Pfister, explains what it's all about.
New this year is the La Crosse Omnium Championship. Stage one racing begins on Saturday near Nodine Minnesota at the Ridgeway Community School. Stage two launches Saturday evening from the foot of the world famous Grandad Bluff. This closed course, race of truth against the clock, goes virtually straight up Grandad, climbing 686 feet in 2.37 miles. Stage three is a classic Criterium race--flat, fast, and furious with final runs going through downtown La Crosse.
Storms Come And Go...May Come Back Again
(AP) Storms packing high winds and windshield-shattering hail have rumbled across central Minnesota, but no serious damage or injuries are reported. National Weather Service meteorologist Byron Paulson says a brief tornado touchdown was reported Tuesday near Brooten in west-central Minnesota, but there was no significant damage. Paulson say hail measuring 1.75 inches shattered windshields in Albany in central Minnesota. Winds whipped up to 60 mph or better in Benton County. Another round of storms is possible Wednesday afternoon and evening across southern Minnesota and western Wisconsin.
Chemical Suicide
(AP) Authorities in eastern Minnesota say first responders are dealing with a new and dangerous phenomenon chemical suicide. Washington County Sheriff's Cmdr. Brian Mueller says his department dealt with its first case over the weekend. A person had committed suicide by mixing household chemicals in a bucket, creating a deadly gas. The body of a man from Prescott, Wis., was found in a car in Point Douglas Park. Mueller says when first responders arrived they detected a faint smell of chemicals and called St. Paul hazardous materials squad. He says more training is needed for first responders because they ``may not know what they're walking into when they open the car door.'' Mueller says the haz-mat squad has dealt with similar incidents in the Twin Cities metro area.
No Bat Disease Found
(AP) Wisconsin wildlife officials say another survey has turned up no sign of a deadly bat disease. White-nose syndrome causes bats to wake up during hibernation and quickly deplete their energy stores. Federal wildlife officials estimated in January the disease has killed as many as 6.7 million bats in the eastern United States and Canada.
The state Department of Natural Resources conducted a survey of more than 100 potential hibernacula in the winter of 2010-11 and found to traces of the disease. DNR officials say a survey of 114 sites this past winter found no sign of the disease, either. But they remained convinced the disease is bound to appear sometime.
Minnesota Lawmakers At It Again
(AP) Minnesota legislators have no floor sessions scheduled Wednesday, leaving the field clear for high-level talks between Gov. Mark Dayton and leaders on the key issues standing in the way of a session finish. The GOP-controlled House approved a tax bill Tuesday that would give property tax relief to businesses. It's one of their top priorities, but Dayton's opposed to the bill because it would tap budget reserves to pay for the relief. Meanwhile, the struggle over a Vikings stadium plan took a detour when Republican leaders came forward Tuesday with a stadium plan that would drop the roof and fund it with general-fund dollars instead of expanded gambling. Dayton, the Vikings and other supporters of the main bill say it's a non-starter.

Andy Reid is Loving Football Again
Ten Things I Think I Think
1. I think this was the thing that piqued my interest from a couple of weekend conversations with Gil Brandt at the Rams and Chiefs: I asked him what teams surprised him the most, in a good way, on his camp tour across America for Sirius XM NFL Radio. "Arizona," he said. I'm hearing that out here on the trail. It's got extra currency when Brandt says it.
2. I think, having visited Carolina Friday night, there's no question the organization feels its two leaders, and the two best players on the team for the long-term future, are Cam Newton and Luke Kuechly. Who, by the way, are the last two top picks of former general manager Marty Hurney. Hurney was dumped by owner Jerry Richardson mid-season last year, and nowhere was his name mentioned that I heard on my visit. Newton was a gamble for some entering the draft, with his wayward college career. All he's done in his first two seasons is throw for 7,920 yards—though he has not won enough. All Kuechly did as a rookie is average 10.2 tackles a game, most in the league. Just thought everyone should remember a guy widely panned when he got the gate left the franchise with its two most important players. And Newton's 24, Kuechly 22.
3. I think the significant thing to remember about Havard Rugland in his battle with David Akers for the Lions' kicking job is this: Rugland can kick off. Akers wouldn't. Rugland's three kickoffs Friday night against the Jets fell at the 1-yard line, two yards deep and five yards deep. It's still probably Akers' job. What makes the most sense to me, barring Rugland making three more 50-plus-yard field goals in the next three games, is Akers winning the job and Rugland landing on the practice squad.
4. I think for those of you in the preseason-mining mode, I've got a few bits from a fellow accompanying me on the tour this summer, Neil Hornsby of ProFootballFocus.com. You may know the site for its exhaustive work breaking down every player on every play of every game. Now, PFF is breaking down the preseason games. (Go here for a season or monthly subscription.) I asked Neil to cull a few items from the games over the weekend.
a. Although the Arizona first-unit offensive line—horrendous last year—played three short series in Green Bay, the news was positive. Carson Palmer was pressured once and not sacked in the three series.
b. There's a camp battle in Atlanta worth watching: Who will start at corner opposite Asante Samuel? Our fourth-highest-rated corner this week was the Falcons' second-round choice, Robert Alford (+2.8). Our third-lowest-rated? The Falcons' first-rounder, Desmond Trufant (-2.7).
c. In 53 snaps in his pro debut at Carolina, Chicago rookie guard Kyle Long gave up zero sacks and one hurry with no penalties.
d. Green Bay needs to get injured corners Tramon Williams and Casey Hayward back quickly. Devon House started and in just 10 snaps in coverage allowed three of four passes targeted at him to be completed for 92 yards and a touchdown. That's a QB rating of 156.3.
e. Jedd Fisch Alert: No team had their quarterbacks get rid of the ball as quickly as Jacksonville. The average time to throw for Blaine Gabbert was 2.1 seconds, while Chad Henne's was 2.2. These were the lowest two of any quarterbacks to take at least 10 dropbacks.
f. We might have gotten a clue of what to expect from Chip Kelly's Philadelphia offense. Of the Eagles' 30 designed runs (all runs excluding quarterback scrambles), 27 were from shotgun.
g. With Michael Crabtree out, San Francisco's first-round pick from 2012, A.J. Jenkins, needs to step up. Jenkins did not do much to help his cause, despite playing 56% of snaps for the 49ers. He ran 26 routes, caught only one ball on three targets and, after picking up a first down on that pass, fumbled.
h. Keep an eye on Baltimore's new pick-up, Daryl Smith. In just 20 snaps he managed a hit, a hurry, three tackles and an assist.
i. With Tim Tebow in the game at Philadelphia, New England ran the option seven times and averaged 5.4 yards on these runs.
j. No offensive line struggled more over the weekend than the New York Jets, and no lineman epitomized that more than rookie left tackle Oday Aboushi. He gave up a sack, a hurry, three penalties and struggled with his run blocking.
k. San Diego quarterback Charlie Whitehurst was 0 for 10 when pressured by Seattle.
5. I think it won't show up high on anyone's radar for big injury losses, but Kelvin Hayden being lost for the year with a torn hamstring is significant because teams play so much nickel now, and slot corners like Hayden are hard to find. "Especially at this point, when every team has 90 guys in camp," said Bears GM Phil Emery. Hurts that the Bears didn't re-sign D.J. Moore, who took his game to Carolina. The Bears need second-year corner Isaiah Frey to emerge from a green field of slot candidates.
6. I think the Ravens are grasping, obviously, in signing Dallas Clark, 34, and Brandon Stokley, 37, over the weekend. But this is a time of desperation, with the trade of Anquan Boldin, the injury to Dennis Pitta and with Ed Dickson out for a while also. Both are short-term scotch-tape moves. The most encouraging thing, I'd say, is how Stokley was able to stay healthy all year at 36 in Denver after a string of seasons marred by injury. "I think all of our younger receivers have ability," Joe Flacco told me the other day, "but we're going to have to get them in game-time situations, and they're going to have to build that confidence and say, 'I do belong here.' Now we're going to have to rely on our three-wides package a little more in those situations." It would really help Flacco if Clark could give the Ravens at least half a season of hold-the-fort football at a suddenly needy position.
The post-Pitta problem | Ravens should double down on the ground
7. I think, by the way, Pitta is not assuredly out for the season. Asked a Ravens coach the other day what percentage there was that Pitta—thought to be out for the year after surgery two weeks ago to repair a dislocated hip—would play this year. "Don't know the percentage," the coach said, "but it is not zero."
8. I think if I were Rex Ryan, and my job might depend on competent quarterback play, I'd sure as heck be watching Mark Sanchez and Geno Smith live. Every snap.
9. I think I can't quite figure it out, but I am hugely sad for Plaxico Burress, whose season and probably his career ended with a torn rotator cuff suffered in practice last week.
10. I think these are my non-football thoughts of the week:
a. Amazon's honcho buys the Washington Post. Talked to a wealthy Washingtonian the other day, after the sale, who predicted there wouldn't be a print edition of the Post within two years. I find that shocking, but nothing about the media should shock anyone today.
b. The Angels bought Albert Pujols for $254 million. Jeffrey Bezos bought the Washington Post for $250 million.
c. That says something dire about our society; I'm just not sure how dire.
d. Bernie Kosar, doing color on the Browns preseason game against St. Louis Thursday, had some harsh things to say about the Rams. He called the Rams receivers, including the eighth pick in the 2013 draft, Tavon Austin, "horrible," said their parents "would be embarrassed" if they were watching the game, and, about backup quarterback Kellen Clemens, said, "Bless me Father for I have sinned. I have to watch him the whole fourth quarter."
Kosar's a good guy, and I have always liked him. But I found the comments pretty far over the top and asked rhetorically, on Twitter, whether Kosar had been drinking. Which brought on a raft of criticism from the Twitterverse, saying I'd gone over the top. I don't think I was over the top, but many of you felt I'd gone too far given the sea of trouble Kosar has had in his personal life. (None of which, from what I can tell, involve treatment for alcohol, or any admission of alcoholism.) My point was, I think there's a way to be critical of players and teams, and analysts should definitely do that. But Kosar went too far, in my opinion. And not just mine. Kosar called Rams coach Jeff Fisher Sunday to apologize, and Browns CEO Joe Banner said Sunday the Browns "don't condone the personal and unprofessional approach" Kosar used.
e. Just when you think Miguel Cabrera can't get any better, he homers in the ninth inning off Mariano Rivera twice in one road series. We're seeing the prime of one of the great hitters any of us will ever see.
f. John Madden used to say it all the time, and I am merely copycatting him by saying what a beautiful country this is, and I'm lucky over the past two weeks to be driving through it instead of flying over it. Particularly beautiful: the hills and small mountains around Asheville, N.C., with trees so green and countryside so lush.
g. Coffeenerdness: The other day, the Starbucks on Kingston Pike in Knoxville got a gold star from me. I went in there to work with my tour pal Neil Hornsby, struck up a conversation with the two baristas about the area, and went to work. The fellow later brought us over small cups of coffee to try from their Clover brewing process and, when I left, the other barista called us both by name. Not sure, but I don't think that'd happen at the Starbucks on the corner of 55th and Lex.
h. Beernerdness: One of the great nights on this tour was made possible, in part, by Porter Hardy IV, the president of Smartmouth Brewing Company in Norfolk. On Tuesday in Richmond, after viewing a Redskins practice, Hardy was waiting for me with a growler of beer from his brewery. It was his Alter Ego Saison. Porter, good news: The growler didn't last until Atlanta. (And no, our drivers/reporters, Andy DeGory and Dan Greene, didn't dabble on our night drive to the Falcons.) But the Saison was delicious. Thanks, Porter. And sorry about RGIII not signing for little Sarah.
i. Congratulations, Michael Gehlken of UT-San Diego, for writing this memorable piece about the incredible journey to the NFL of Chargers rookie tackle D.J. Fluker.
j. So Larry David told Rich Eisen on Eisen's podcast that he could be an NFL play-caller. "If they gave me a chance, I could turn the fortunes of an NFL team around," David said. Only if Jeff Garlin could play right guard.
k. So I'm on the road Wednesday, and my daughter Laura, who lives in San Francisco, texted to say she was going to San Jose with a couple of San Francisco cops. Seems they'd got a lead on her stolen bike. "Nervous," she texted. "It's a sting." A WHAT! Seems she got wind that some guy on Craigslist was trying to sell her bike and lots of other ones.
It's a cool story, and so I asked her to tell it.
I wasn't scared until I found myself holding a bike I never thought I'd see again, standing along side a still-running maroon Ford Escort while two undercover cops chased the guy who tried to sell it back to me. It was probably only two or three minutes, but it felt like a good half an hour before Officer Brett Bodisco and Officer Matt Friedman emerged from around the corner of the Chase Bank parking lot in East San Jose. "Is it your bike?" Officer Bodisco called out. We flipped it over and checked the serial number to be sure. It was. Four thousand bicycles were stolen in San Francisco last year, and only 142 were returned to their owners. Aside from cell phone theft, it's the most common crime in the city. But, like any major metropolis, San Francisco faces many more serious issues. So when I woke up to find my bike missing from my locked entry way, I certainly wasn't optimistic about recovering it. I dutifully filed a police report, and scoured Craigslist in case it turned up. I also listed my stolen bike on our city's registry, and followed two Twitter handles—the first, @stolenbikesfo, belonging to Bryan Hance, and the second @SFPDbiketheft, owned by Park Precinct Officer Matt Friedman. When a gray and aqua Specialized Dolce turned up on Craigslist in East San Jose after a week, I was ecstatic. Officer Friedman volunteered to help. Within 4 hours of arranging a meeting, I was riding in the back of an undercover cop car down to East San Jose to meet "Dennis," whose number, at the time, was linked to 12 different bike listings on Craigslist. Officer Friedman and his partner, Officer Brett Bodisco, told me most bike thieves in San Francisco are looking to score some quick cash.
They'll sell an $800 bike for, say $50. The person who pays $50 will then take the bike to a flea market (common locations in the Bay Area are the Oakland Coliseum and Capitol Expressway in San Jose) and sell it for about half its value. Then, someone like "Dennis" tries to make the full value back by listing it on Craigslist. Amazing what you learn in the back of a cop car for three hours … and even more amazing to meet two policemen who care so much about their community. Thank you, officers Friedman and Bodisco. I am so grateful.
Once on the freeway, Officer Bodisco turned back to me. "Sure beats an episode of Cops, doesn't it?" That it does.
The Adieu Haiku
Randy Moss? TV?
I'm in the Doubters Club, but …
I can't wait to watch.
Are you kidding me Peter? The Bills put up 44 with two rookie QBs (the first QB selected in the draft and a free agent rookie) who combine for 35-44 for 306, 3 TDs and no picks and you don't say a peep about either of them??
Any other year you would spend weeks blowing the first QB drafted and on the field, but thank god we got six pages of coverage about the rookie guards. Awesome.
The Bills are in the league, deal with it.
Not a fan of the new format or font. Too much flash and clutter going on. (I'm sure we are a minority though) Takes away from why we enjoyed the weekly MMQB -- feels like you bought into the corporate machine. Doesn't mesh with the personal stories and never would have expected it from you. Good Luck with it.
I don't think I've ever pulled for a player to make my team. Naturally, I have my favorites on the roster but basically, I pull for whoever is out there for my squad and I trust the men who make those decisions. That's changed this year with my Falcons signing Brian Banks. Who among us can't appreciate his attitude? He really is, from all of the accounts I can find, a tremendous young man and, i must admit, probably a better man than I. I doubt I'd be able to move forward without any bitterness the way he has done. C'mon, Dirty Birds, this man deserves at least a practice squad spot!:)
I think Kosar is more pretentious than arrogant. Arrogant implies you have a reason to feel superior.
Peter must have forgotten the league has 32 teams. He seemed to focus on the Lions, Jets, Ravens, KC and a couple of others, ad nauseum. Hopefully next week he will remember some of the other teams and have some information in there about them.
Can you imagine how good Cabrera's lifetime #'s would be and how full his trophy case would be if he was remotely sober before 2 years ago?
Let me get this straight:
1.) Kosar says the Rams receivers stink, the receivers coach stinks, and Clemens stinks... True statements but so hurtful that he must apologize.
2.) Peter King says Bernie was drunk... false statements and hurtful (considering his slurred speech is a disability caused by 10 or more concussions he received from, you know, playing the game) and no apology is warranted.
Why should Bernie apologize for being a truthful jerk yet King doesn't need to apologize for being a misleading jerk?
For the record, Clemens was 6/13 (thats a whopping 46.2% completion percentage), for 116 yards, with 1 td and 2 picks. Kosar says that stinks and Fisher says he played well... hmmm.
Peter, maybe you should have tried watching the actual Browns/Rams broadcast instead of just basing your response off of Jeff Fisher's rant. You would have found that Bernie Kosar was at least as critical of Browns players as he was of those on the Rams. He also praised Clemens, citing his great arm strength and ability to pick up and evade the blitz, right after he criticised him.
PK - three things I think.
One, like the expanded format a LOT. Content all seems worthwhile, no filler. Be interesting to see if your team can keep it up.
Two, spent a year in Chattanooga for school. The Lookouts' games were always a highlight. If I recall correctly, student nights (way back in the 80s), we $1 admission, and 25-cent hot dogs. Tough to beat that.
Three, Cabrera is a monster. Had the good fortune to be on the field for BP in Cleveland last week, and Cabrera was pretty much hitting them out by section: left, left-center, deep center, right field. With power. Although V-Mart hit the longest one, Miggy was by far the most consistent stroke.
PK, the new format threw me off. But really really happy to see you preserve the regular Monday column with all of its traditions intact, even if the fonts are different. Do I dare invoke Bernie Kosar, and suggest that the parts of your column are are as Holy as parts of the Mass? All kidding aside, thanks for continuing to humanize the NFL.
What's up with all the holier-than-thou consternation regarding King's "questioning" whether Kosar had been drinking. I think it was pretty funny, myself.
How many times, literally or figuratively, have we said in reference to something a little crazy..."What the eff, bro...are you drunk?"
So many touchy d-bags who are looking for ANY reason to get their little panties in a wad. Get over it fellas...this is professional football...it's OK to be masculine.
Oh by the way, Jeff Fisher once gave Chris Mortensen's son, a guy who wasn't even good enough to start at Samford a tryout with the Titans (he appeared in a preseason game). Hmmmmm....and now Peter King is defending Fisher whom he also shares the same agent. I gotta hand it to Fisher, he knows how to use his media puppets.
Now that Steve Sabol has passed away, I guess Peter King has taken the mantra of writing fluff pieces about NFL teams.
Peter, I appreciate the work that you have done over the years. Your columns have been entertaining and informative.
However, your comments about Kosar and drinking were very unprofessional, and you're better than that. If you sat down and watched the entire broadcast of that game, I think your opinion regarding Bernie's commentary would be entirely different. Bernie's not a saint, by any means. However, if you want a breakdown of the X's and O's of offense, you can't get a color commentator any better than Bernie. His commentary Thursday night was detailed, coherent, entertaining and spot-on. If a color commentator can't criticize a receiving corps for dropping 6 passes in one game, that's a sad statement for our society in general and a sign of political correctness gone awry.
I'm glad to see your apology this evening on Twitter, and look forward to reading your column tomorrow morning that further expounds your apology. I don't know if Kosar is an alcoholic or not, and I am in no place to judge him one way or another. However, I do know that, worse case scenario, if Bernie is alcoholic, I have seen many individuals fight that fight, turn their lives around, become sober, and do great things with their lives. Let's not disparage individuals who fight the difficult fight of sobriety.
Hey Peter -
1. When will you rename your '10 Things I Think I Think' to (as in this week's column) '32 Things I Think'? Less is more. Think harder.
2. You did not take my advice yet to change your column pic to a less simian version of your visage. Pin your ears back, smile and stop hunching your shoulders.....sit up straight and be proud of your ugliness.
3. I was on the fence on the Kosar thing - I saw a little of the broadcast and thought Bernie was acting the homer a bit. I then read that you and Jeff Fisher share the same agent (True?) and consider him a friend. So, Peter, it may be a bit of homerism on your part too, eh? So I have to ask, rhetorically, were you drinking while writing this column?
4. Took a side trip to read '10 Things I Think I Think' by the Bears' TE Martellus Bennett. What a load of immature, narcissistic drivel. The guy is 26 going on 14. Pay your editors a little more please.
So the man who has had an alcohol related comment in pretty much every one of his MMQB columns for YEARS now has the audacity to ask if some teams local color-commentator was drunk when he said/did nothing wrong and/or out of line? You admit that you had the owner of a brewery have a half-gallon of alcohol ready for you when you arrived. Seriously?
I suppose that makes you an expect on drinking/drunk. Get to an AA meeting to discuss your Alcoholism issue. You need some serious help Peter.
"I had to leave Des Moines early this morning to get on the road, and I'm told I'll miss the Sheep Show at the Iowa State Fair. Not to mention the deep fried stick of butter everyone told me i just had to try. I'll be back someday."
*shudders* Are they serious with this stuff? Now wonder healthcare costs for the country just keep going up and up.
I've read MMQB for the last time...your comments and tweets regarding Kosar are outrageous. You, sir, are the one that needs to apologize. Bernie Kosar has forgotten more than you'll ever know about football ( and please spare me the concussion / alcoholic remarks about memory ) this guy is working hard to turn his life around, and I for one really enjoy his color commentary, he's not the usual, dull PC talking head... and just happens to have a pretty good sense of humor. As for Jeff Fischer , sorry you had your feelings hurt bro...but your receivers actually DO suck ( being a Browns fan for nearly fifty years, I know a thing or two about that ), and your " well documented issues " remark was a cheap shot too, far more out of line than anything Bernie said about the Rams. I happen to live near San Francisco, and even though I've never been a 49ers fan I'm gonna make it a point now to root for them to crush the Rams twice a year until you're done in STL. And btw Peter, when you visit Cleveland from now on, you might want to make sure there's not a little something extra floating in latte or Great Lakes draft, if you know what I mean.
KC fans will soon find out that Andy Reid is just a glorified assistant coach, just as Ray Rhoads was before him. Reid says that he's glad to be back just coaching the team, which is odd, since Reid gets out-coached just about every week by the oppositions head coach. The scary thing for Eagles fans is that it took 14 years for their owner and lame front office to realize it. Reid will be out at KC before Chip Kelly is in Philly but it could be close.
@6marK6 maybe so but I'll take his pretentiousness over people like Gruden who just brown nose for 2-3 hours a broadcast.
@Richard Long If this was sarcasm, it was awesome.
@Richard Long He's cruising around the country visiting all the teams' camps. Those were the ones he visited this week. Last week you would have seen different teams mentioned. Next week's will be different as well. He published the schedule in one of his previous columns.
@Richard Long Richard, it's a long training camp season. PK has admitted he has a problem - the first step is admitting you have a problem. Let's give him a couple of months to provide a more balanced coverage of the league. Having 4 writers will help, even though most are East Coast-based. However, let's just give him a chance....
@MrSerious You noticed too! "Mr. Hypocrisy" does this sort of thing all the time.
@MrSerious Good points. I will say that I watched that game and found Kosar to be a terrible color man (which has nothing to do with him calling out Clemens and the receivers). He seemed very arrogant, not so much personally but from a Browns point of view, as if the Browns are some dynasty franchise. He must not recall the Browns have never been to a Super Bowl, much less won one.
@couch68 Fisher is the one being a cry baby. The receivers did stink, clemens played lousy (although apparently fisher things a 46% completion rate and 2 to 1 interception to td ratio is a good performance) and Kosar called it like it was. I also dont recall Kosar talking about Fisher's adultery or the fact he has had a record above .500 7 times in the last 18 years. Fisher is the one who made it personal.
@couch68 It's completely different situation when a respected national writer spouts off on a global scale about it without even having heard exactly what or how it was said in the first place - don't you think? Do you believe anyone would compare you sitting on your couch at home or a bar stool at a sports bar saying the same thing to PK tweeting it = ESPECIALLY with his conflict of interest with the Rams organization?
@couch68 but apparently it's not okay to criticize people in the eyes of the Browns and Jeff Fisher, talk about getting your panties in a wad.
@mystafugee Wow, you're just coming to that realization? You're decades behind.
@mystafugee mystafugee, why would you disparage the man that along with his father, made the NFL into the product it is today? Is it possible that you are that dense? Judging by your comments it appears you are...
@Shane Mac
You are spending way too much time analyzing a thumbnail photo of a grown man.
I'd say I looked at it for, like, .002 seconds.
There are other sites on the internet with larger, higher quality photos of men (or women...my preference) for your viewing pleasure. Maybe you should peruse Google Images?
@Shane Mac Get a life, nerd.
@luvfoozball Have you seen P.K lately
@luvfoozball Um, it's a DELICACY you fool!
@Troutstamp Wow, the unnatural hatred of such an accomplished coach is SOOOOO Philly fan.......
@Richard Long @MrSerious Kosar is arrogant. He has always been that way. He says what he thinks, to coaches, fans, etc. He always has. Believe me if you have watched Kosar call preseason Browns games in the past, you would know its not coming from a Browns point of view. He has been more critical of Browns players and coaches then he was of the Rams. Kosar calls it as he sees it. Let me ask you, what did you think of his analysis? IMO, he was spot on. Its hard to blame someone for being right. Could he have said it in a more PC way, sure, but that wouldnt be as funny or entertaining.
@mystafugee @couch68 Exactly, Kosar's comments were accurate for the game. They were just twisted by Peter King, who then whined about someone not saying good things about his 'pet team'. Seriously Peter, you respond to a commentators comments about their play during a game by going to a practice and saying they look good? How many balls does a receiving corp have to drop badly in a game before the opposing team commentator can call them 'horrible'? Apparently many more than a half dozen.
Kosar's commentary was accurate. Jeff Fisher not only threw Kosar under the bus trying to protect his players, but needlessly attacked Kosar's character. You are supposed to be a professional football coach Fisher, how many drops do you think Rams fans are going to say is acceptable each game. Heck, Fisher should be thanking Kosar because he was saved the ire of Rams fans this week as they nerd rage on Kosar's comments instead. Or delude themselves by thinking they can explain away badly dropped passes by saying it's just a 'vanilla offense' for the 1st preseason game.
@Mike26 @mystafugee it wasn't more than 10 years ago, just pointing it out since most people don't know that
@couch68 @Shane Mac Two thousandths of a second? What are you .... a hummingbird? And a Cowboys fan?
OK, can I have yours?
@Mike26 @luvfoozball Every heart attack inducing, lard filled food item is considered a "delicacy" by someone. The fact is it still remains unhealthy.
@Mike26 @Troutstamp Thanks for that Mike. I'll keep it coming !
@Richard Long @MrSerious Right, he played defense "on the drive" and was responsible for "the fumble." Your reference to his daughter was a cheap shot, but nothing unexpected from a self-proclaimed long Richard.
@MrSerious @Richard Long I've watched a lot of pre-season games and never have I heard anyone be so critical in them, that's what shocked me. I've lived in Dallas, Baltimore, Denver, Seattle, Chicago and watched dozens of their pre-season games and their color men were always gracious for both teams. I would hate to listen to him for four games every season, so glad I don't root for Cleveland (that and the fact that they've never been to a SB ). And as far as Kosar goes, three shots and he went 0-3 in the biggest games of his life. Sorry, that doesn't cut it. I would think he would have more humility given that he was a good, but not great QB. And the fact that his daughter has done porn only adds to the fact that I would think he would have more humility.
@MrSerious @Richard Long Mr. Serious, the porn star bit is used as part of the foundation of any good argument - are you new to internet discussions? LOL
@Richard Long @MrSerious You saw the first half. The Rams played horribly, and Cleveland didn't. Who should he have criticized? No doubt he is arrogant and a bit defiant (his ousting from the browns had much do with with changing a play bill belichick called, scoring a TD on that play, and telling the media he drew the play up in the dirt) but he understands QB and Receiver play like no one I have heard call a game.
I must say, you are wrong about Kosar in big games. Sure the browns lost in the most heart wrenching fashion imaginable under Kosar. That said, in 85, he threw for a NFL playoff record 489 yards in a come from behind OT win over the Jets. In 87, he threw for 356 yards and 3 tds in the loss to Elway in the AFC championship. If Byner didnt fumble on the 2 yard line, Kosar would have avenged Elways Drive the year before with one of his own. in 88 he set an NFL record for the most consecutive playoff games with 3 or more TDs.
What does his daughter being a porn star have to do with him?
@MrSerious @Richard Long I only watched the first half and he was not very critical of the Browns then. He was highly critical of the Rams, their play calling, their alignments, ....I'm not a Rams fan so it really doesn't bother me. I just found him to be so arrogant. Especially for a guy who couldn't get it done in the big games. And you have to think he would be a bit more humble considering his daughter has done porn.
@Mot Cevaro @Chastaen @mystafugee @couch68 Fisher has ALWAYS looked out for Fisher and Fisher alone; how else could a mediocre to average coach (.500 coach in 17 years) last so long without very little accomplishment?
@Chastaen @mystafugee @couch68 It was the premeditated decision by King and Fisher attack Bernie's personal character over critical comments he made about a football game. What's makes it worse, is that Fisher asked reporters to ask the question so he could go on public record and personally blast Kosar. As if FIsher has any room to talk regarding someones's personal life considering his "well documented" adultery. King made it worse by adding his premeditated personal attack on Kosar to get some brownie points with his agent's son (Rams VP of football operations, Kevin Demoff) so he will continue to get his exclusive access with the Rams (like being allowed in the draft day war room).
@luvfoozball @Mike26 You need to leave this board and go back to Dr. Oz's website - you'd probably be much happier.

LeBron James apparently loves his critics.James is arguably the most criticized and otherwise scrutinized athlete in the professional sporting world. Some of it was brought upon by his self amid The Decision fiasco, while others just continue to bash the basketball prodigy because he's so damn good.Well, the Miami Heat star has a message for all his naysayers. He showed up to the team's Family Fest event Sunday wearing a hat that basically says he loves his haters. So, there you go. He turns hate into motivation, and he's pretty good at it, too.Via Twitter

Norman Lewis Corwin (born May 3, 1910) is an American writer, screenwriter, producer, essayist and teacher of journalism and writing. His earliest and biggest success was in the writing and directing of radio drama during the 1930s and 1940s.
Corwin was among the first producers to regularly use entertainment -- even light entertainment -- to tackle serious social issues. In this area he was a peer to Orson Welles and William N. Robson, and an inspiration to other later radio/TV writers such as Rod Serling, Gene Roddenberry, Norman Lear and J. Michael Straczynski.
He is the son of Samuel and Rose Corwin and was born in Boston, Massachusetts. Corwin was a major figure in during the Golden Age of Radio. During the 1930s and 1940s he was a writer, producer of many radio programs in many genres: history, biography, fantasy, fiction, poetry and drama. He was the writer and creator of series such as The Columbia Workshop, 13 By Corwin, 26 By Corwin and others. He is currently a lecturer at the University of Southern California.
Corwin has won the One World Award, two Peabody Medals, an Emmy, a Golden Globe, a duPont-Columbia Award; he was nominated for an Academy Award for Writing Adapted Screenplay for Lust for Life (1956). On May 12, 1990 Corwin received an Honorary Doctorate from Lincoln College. Corwin was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1993. A documentary film on Corwin's life, A Note of Triumph: The Golden Age of Norman Corwin won an Academy Award for Best Documentary (Short Feature) in 2006.
In 1941 Corwin was given the timeslot and resources of the Columbia Workshop program for a full six months, under the title 26 By Corwin, which required him to conceive, write, cast, direct and produce a completely new play every seven days.
We Hold These Truths was first broadcast in December 15, 1941, in honor of the 150th anniversary of the United States Bill of Rights. Many radio and movie stars of the day featured, along with an epilogue by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. National Public Radio sponsored a new version of this program in 1991, for the Bill of Rights bicentennial.
His most famous work is On a Note of Triumph, a celebration of the Allied victory in Europe, first broadcast on VE Day, May 8, 1945.
Corwin reports being on a train "somewhere near Albuquerque" when news of the end of the European war came to him. He had been planning to produce On a Note of Triumph as a morale booster for the men overseas. But the war with Germany had ended, and he doubted the network still wished to air it. (Just in case, broadcast historian Erik Barnouw wrote, Corwin had performers ready in both New York City and Los Angeles). Corwin called his network and expressed concern. CBS radio head William Paley sent a message to Corwin on the train .... "the President says, 'now more than ever.' "
With Harry Truman's insistence that it continue, the program went on (from the Los Angeles studios of CBS Radio Station KNX), with Martin Gabel as host/narrator and with William L. Shirer (via cable from New York) re-creating his role as reporter in the Compeigne forest covering the French surrender to Germany. With an audience of 60 million listeners became one of the most famous ever produced on radio.
Corwin wrote and directed two plays produced on Broadway, The Rivalry (1959) and The World of Carl Sandburg (1960). According to Ray Bradbury, Corwin was responsible for the eventual publication of Bradbury's The Martian Chronicles.
In the early 1970s Corwin produced and hosted the television show Norman Corwin Presents. In 1979 he hosted Academy Leaders, a weekly showcase for short animated films, such as those produced by the National Film Board of Canada.
Corwin wrote several books, which include Trivializing America; plus many essays, letters, articles and plays.
Corwin is currently a lecturer at the University of Southern California.
Addendum: The Plot to Overthrow Christmas, Opera, Music by Walter Scharf, Libretto by Norman Corwin - written 1960, only performance 2000 Brigham Young University. The opera exists in manuscript form only. Composer and Librettest unable to agree on terms for further use. Scharf died in 2003.

The MPAA's member companies will begin suing people who have swapped digital movie files starting November 16, the MPAA announced Thursday. The MPAA will find people who distribute movies on peer-to-peer networks by identifying them through their Internet Protocol addresses on those P-to-P services, according to the trade group.
Although it's still uncertain the number of people that are getting sued this month, the MPAA seeks to stop illegal file distribution and will also ask for monetary damage which can go as high as "$30,000 for each movie distributed, or up to $150,000 if the copyright infringement is proven to be willful".

Essay - Dante's 'The Divine Comedy' Alighieri Dante is Considered One of...
Dante's "The Divine Comedy"
Alighieri Dante is considered one of the most celebrated poets ***** the medieval Europe. *****'s work include; Vita nuova (new life), a collection of poems and prose, Convivio (Banquet, prose), De Vulgari eloquentia (on eloquence in ***** vernacular), De monarchia (On Monarchy), Prose antiche de Dante (Letters), but the work that ensured ***** a pl*****ce ***** the history ***** literature is his ***** Comedia.
Originally Dante called ***** famous collection of poems, *****, the adjective divine was added in 16th century by Boccaccio ***** ***** work became La Divina Comedia (The Divine *****). ***** called the poem ***** because it is not tragedy. In one of his letters he explains the difference between the tragedy and comedy as practiced during that period. Dante described tragedy as a high style poetry and the comedy ***** a low style. ***** the theories of that time comedy began as a sad story and developed with a happy ending. The beginning of the ***** Comedy is horrible ***** the depiction ***** the 'Inferno' ***** ***** end is heaven with its pleasant descriptions. ***** style is humble because it is written in the 'vulgar' language (*****), ***** used by common people.
The Divine Comedy is acknowledged as one of ***** greatest ***** in the world. The poem is divided *****to three sections 'Canticas'; Inferno (Hell), Purgatario (Purgatory) and Paradiso (Paradise). Cantica, Inferno is the ***** popular for ***** descriptive account as everyone wants to know about what hell ***** like.
***** ***** has a special significance in Dante's *****. Three represents ***** 'tr*****ity', part ***** his Christian beliefs. The poem is organized in tecrets or group of three lines, is in three c***** or canticas. Each cantica contains 33 cantos (plus one canto for introduction). *****re is also multiple of three in each *****. Inferno ***** nine circles, Purgatario has nine terraces and Parad*****o has nine heavens. Dante uses this dem*****ing and innovative Italian verse form called terza rima. The divine comedy presents an overview of the moral codes, attitudes, philosophies of ***** *****.
The poem is now regarded as a m*****sterpiece ***** it ***** not always been like this. Dante was famous in his own lifetime and the Comedia was ***** a masterpiece ***** the 15th century. During the Enlightenment period it ***** basically ignored. Henry Cash's first English translation introduced the ***** Comedy to the English speaking world. The true recogn*****ion of the poet came with Henry Longfellow's translation of Dante's epic. William Blake, T. S. Elliott, Samuel Beckett, James Joyce extensive use of ***** work. New translations and new editions of Dante's work are published almost every year now. In ***** word of ***** writer Jorge Borges, the Divine Comedy "is a book th*****t everyone ought to read. Not to do so is to deprive oneself of ***** ***** gift that literature can give us; to submit ***** a strange asceticism."
Through the Divine Comedy, Dante emerges as a geographer of the cosmos, he draws maps of heaven

PRESIDENT Jakaya Kikwete has directed the Police Force to make sure it brings to book all the perpetrators responsible for the gruesome murder of Mwanza Regional Police Commander (RPC), Liberatus Barlow, who was shot and killed by unknown people at the weekend.
"The murder of the RPC is a cowardly act which should not discourage the police from executing their duties," Mr Kikwete said in the condolence message he sent on Tuesday to the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr Said Mwema.
A press statement issued by the Directorate of Presidential Communications , said the president was shocked by the death of the RPC, whom he described as a brave senior officer with a history in the public service that is worth emulating. "It is without doubt that the Police Force and Tanzania as a whole have lost a brave law enforcement officer," he said.
Mr Kikwete, who is also Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, also sent condolences to the family of the deceased.
The president left Dar es Salaam for a four-day state visit to the Sultanate of Oman, the first such visit by a Tanzanian head of state.
While in the Arab country, Mr Kikwete will hold talks with his host, King Qaboos bin Said, grace a meeting between Tanzanian and Omani businessmen and witness the signing of an agreement for the formation of the two countries' business council.
Meanwhile, Stephen Dassu reports from Mwanza that hundreds of residents paid their last respects to the late Barlow at the Nyamagana Stadium.The event, that was also attended by high ranking government officials, including ministers, started at around 10.50 am. There was also a one-hour mass led by the Catholic Church Clerics.
The atmosphere was filled with grief as many people, including primary school pupils, paid attention to the proceedings. The late Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) was killed on Friday night by unknown assailants at Kitangili in Ilemela District. The RPC was said to have stopped in the area to drop a female passenger.
Monday's occasion was also attended by the Mwanza Regional Commissioner (RC), Eng Evarist Ndikilo; the Director for Criminal Invesigation (DCI) Robert Manumba; deputy ministers Binilith Mahenge (Water), Stephen Masele (Energy), Dr Charles Tizeba (Transport) and Minister William Lukuvi (Co-ordination and Parliamentary Affairs).
The RC told mourners at the Nyamagana Stadium that the late ACP Barlow was a highly committed, trustworthy, diligent person who sought to eliminate all forms of crime in Mwanza.IGP, Mr Said Mwema, has pledged a thorough investigation to circumstances that led to the astonishing killing of the RPC.
Eng. Ndikilo also echoed similar sentiments saying that state organs have already launched investigations into the killing. "Those who perpetrated such a heinous, barbaric act will have no place to hide," he said.The late RPC Barlow, who had previously assumed various posts within the Police Force, such as OCD and RCO since the 1980s, was born in December 1959. He has left a widow and three children.
His body was to be flown to Dar es Salaam and later to Moshi Rural District where he will be laid to rest, according to officials.

Early Access: Trends in Paid Search Q2 2013 Data and Analysis
Posted on Wednesday, July 17th, 2013 by Taylor deDiego Print This Post
Categories - Featured, News, SEM
Every quarter, The Search Agency compiles data and analysis about trends in paid search to help advertisers determine how they can effectively take advantage of paid search advertising. The full report will be published later this week, but we are offering some sneak peeks atour data right here, right now:
This quarter Google CPCs were on the rise, with a 22% increase QoQ. In fact, Google's CPC was up across all 3 devices types (desktop, tablet, and smartphone) with the largest jump taking place on tablets (26% QoQ). Historically, tablet CPCs on Google have been at a discount to desktop, but Q2 was the first quarter in which we have seen tablet CPCs at a premium to desktops.
Why would CPCs be increasing across the board? Keith Wilson, VP of Agency Products, offers this insight:
"Obviously, something is changing on Google to create the market shift. One possible scenario is an increase in competitive bidding resulting from the Enhanced Campaigns roll out. With volume remaining consistent and advertisers beginning the shift over to the new paradigm and bidding format, some advertisers might be creating a competitive push on mobile CPCs, driving up overall CPCs. While this might account for some of the influence, it is likely not the only contributing factor changing the Google CPC metric."
For more industry analysis and complete data about the state of paid search, be sure to download our Trends in Paid Search Report Q2 2013 this Thursday from http://www.thesearchagency.com/classroom/research/

If you're not making money off it, a 3000 series epson is a better buy (and much smaller foot print). 4900 will last longer and be cheaper to operate in the long term, but you're looking at $3000-4000 in start up costs (at retail). You'd have to make a lot of prints, way more than 100's, to justify it. 3000 series can be had for $1500-2000 in start up costs.

Once Upon a Time Spoiler: Who's Bonding With Henry? (PHOTO)
Read spoilers at your own risk! For more on Wetpaint Entertainment's philosophy on spoilers, click here.
Neal/Bae (Michael Raymond-James) might be hesitant about returning to Storybrooke in Once Upon a Time Season 2, Episode 15: "The Queen Is Dead," but spoilers confirm that he will be coming to town — and sticking around, at least for a while.
And what will he be doing in town? Well, based on some spoiler-y set photos from YVRShoots, at least some of his time will be spent on daddy duty.
In those photos, Michael Raymond-James and Jared Gilmore (Henry Mills) are seen play sword fighting with wooden swords. It's totally adorable.
Though we have to wonder: Will David/Charming (Josh Dallas) be jealous? After all, not too long ago he was the one teaching Henry how to protect himself. Now that his dad is back in his life, will Henry have as much time for his grandad, too?
And, of course, we have to wonder how Mr. Gold/Rumplestiltskin (Robert Carlyle) and Emma (Jennifer Morrison) fit in. Will Nealfire forgive his dad? Will Emma forgive him for abandoning her? We can't wait to see it all play out.
Read more OUAT spoilers here.

Karla Lopez
AIU South Florida campus
Alyson Moses Edelman
WESTON, Fla., March 13, 2009– American InterContinental University (AIU) South Florida hosted the Fifth Annual "Tributo a sus Logros" Awards to honor powerful Hispanic women. The awards were presented at AIU's Weston campus on Tuesday, March 10, following a musical performance by the Avila Children and Youth Orchestra.
Carinés Moncada from NBC/Telemundo hosted the event, introducing women of the community to present the awards to each individual recipient, and calling on the recipients to briefly share their personal stories. Hispanic Broward commissioner, Diana Wasserman‐Rubin, served as a speaker and presenter at the event.
Colombian Scarlett Martinez, an AIU student, was among the 16 women recognized at the ceremony. Martinez joined the military in 2003 and eventually deployed to Iraq. She attended AIU Online while in Iraq, was wounded in battle and returned to the U.S. in 2007 to receive the "Purple Heart" award. Today, Martinez is a third‐year full‐time Fashion Marketing and Design student at AIU South Florida; all while being the mom of a 9‐month‐old daughter and working full‐time at a law firm as a legal assistant.
"I am thrilled to receive an award from Mujeres Latinas and be named among such incredible women," Martinez said. "It was my mother's dream to become a fashion designer as well, but she wasn't able to do it as she was a single mother of two and had limited opportunities. I owe my success to her and to my AIU professors who support me in achieving my education goals and professional dreams. Without their assistance, I would not be where I am today."
AIU's Director of Marketing, Karla Lopez, presented Martinez with the award, for which she was nominated by Juanita Alcena, Fashion Marketing and Design Chair.
"We're proud of Scarlett's achievements and those of all the other recipients. The 'Tributo as sus Logros" Awards give us the opportunity to recognize local Hispanic women and their accomplishments in our own backyard," Lopez said. "Hispanics comprise 30 percent of our student body, so they are an important demographic for us, and it's truly an honor to host this event."
Local award winners are Virginia Román (Uruguay), Malexys Morales (Venezuela), Bibiana Salmon (Ecuador), Adriana Gómez Lenis (Colombia), Beatriz Olavarría (Venezuela), Iliana Mendoza De Plata (Nicaragua), Erika G. Ruiz (Venezuela), Laura Prado (Argentina), Gabriela Laguna (Venezuela), María Del Rocío Flores (Colombia), Sonia Maquilon (Ecuador), Elizabeth Bermudez‐Hernandez (Colombia), Claudia Hernandez (Colombia); Gloria Castellanos (Venezuela), Scarlett Martínez (Colombia), and Lideck Matamoros (Nicaragua).
All women awarded at the "Tributo a sus Logros" ceremony will be featured online at www.WomenAchieve.org, a Web site that allows women to collaborate while advancing their education, exploring their career options and mapping out their futures.
