Stephen Hough's blog for the Telegraph the other day quoted Grant Hiroshima as being "so disturbed" at people laughing at Phèdre and Helen Mirren's tragically doomed character that he almost walked out. Hiroshima "wonder[s] if this represents the inabililty of these audiences to register tragedy. Have we come to that point at which tragedy has lost the battle with irony and cynicism?" Well, I for one certainly have the ability to register tragedy – when something is tragic. "Has modern entertainment so dulled the consciousness that an entire audience can just miss the point altogether?" asks Hiroshima, which seems rather snobbish to me. It seems to imply that his reaction to the play is more 'right', more 'worthy', than those who laughed. I am on the side of the audience here. I saw the play two weeks ago, and I laughed. I didn't laugh because I missed the point – I knew the play was a tragedy and that there was going to be a high body count at the end. Not a good start for those expecting laughs. But the play is so far removed from anything realistic or naturalistic that the overblown language and distraught gestures did become laughable. Hiroshima seems to be missing the point that people will laugh if they find something funny – and the fact that he didn't find it funny is no fault of anyone else's.
I admit that the giggles can stem from the fact that it too uncomfortable to watch someone else in pain (a tribute to Mirren as an actress) and the natural way to relieve the tension is to giggle. But there are moments when the sheer ridiculousness of the play is funny. The melodramatic, sweeping scale of the drama and tragedy piling up to totally screw up everyone and everything has its funny moments. We, as audiences, are not used to Greek tragedy, and as a genre it often seems false and removed from real human reaction, which lessons the impact of the tragedy.
To suggest that we are desensitised and no longer able to feel tragedy is absurd – I have cried like a baby at Romeo & Juliet and countless other plays. In most plays where someone dies/something tragic happens, the audience is saddened – but it has to be done well and believably. The fault likes with this production rather than with the audience or with society as a whole. It didn't have enough conviction in its own tragedy to carry it off. The last scene (where the body of Hippolytus is dragged across the stage leaving a bloody trail) was genuinely sombre, but the rest was just too hysterical for it to be possible to empathise with any of the characters, and this remove makes it much easier to see the funny side of the dramatic irony.
I also object to the point about "these audiences", which seems to differentiate theatre audiences from cinema audiences, and as such is elitist and foolish.

The Blade® 350 QX2 is the latest iteration of Blades popular camera platform. This version of the 350 QX has been optimized with an array of upgrades and improved features that give you even more freedom for capturing aerial photography.
Remote control hobbies have come a long way since their early beginnings. RC aircraft and RC helicopters have evolved so much as of late thanks to so many technological innovations from so many passionate visionaries, that they are unrecognizable to the hobbyists of a generation ago. Aside from aerodynamic designs and smooth handling, RC aircrafts are now equipped with state of the art video cameras and even accurate GPS systems. With so many exciting changes in the field of radio control, and many more sure to come, it is certainly a great time to get involved. It can be a little overwhelming at first, trying to get an understanding of the different manufacturers, designs, and various add-ons, but that is what we are here for.
Our staff at Red Rocket Hobby Shop consists of enthusiastic modelers, who enjoy keeping up to speed with the radio control industry. We have found that today high-tech RC helicopters and airplanes have an amazing way of rekindling the fascination that we had for flying when we were children. They are also fun to work on in pairs, coming together to plan, build, and eventually watch as your product sails through the sky, capturing images from its superb vantage point. That is something that both experts and beginners can appreciate.
Radio control cars and boats too have adapted as more technology has become available. Gone are the days when remote control trucks were connected to the control by a 15-foot cord. Now we have trucks that can go off-roading or zoom down a race track, and radio control boats that can go up to 50mph out of the box.

December 2007: Senegal Trip Summary
From December 6th – 17th, Dr. Tadesse and Amrote travelled to Senegal to monitor the progress of programs being implemented by THP-Senegal.
During our stay in Senegal, Dr. Tadesse, with the company of the country director, Madame Madelaine Cisse, travelled to various epicenters including Dinguiraye, Sanar, Richard Toll and Coki. At the epicenters, Dr. Tadesse met with the epicenter committee members as well as partners to conduct VCAs, reemphasizing the concept of the Epicenter Strategy and highlighting the importance of mobilization and partnership.
Separately, Amrote accompanied by the AWFFI team travelled to Sam Contour, Dahra, Diokoul, Dinguiraye and Coki to meet with the credit and epicenter committee to discuss the evolution of the revolving fund at the epicenters. During the meeting, committee members expressed the continued commitment of partners to maintain the good repayment rates and increase their individual savings. Currently, there are seventeen (17) epicenters of which three (3) are government recognized banks in Senegal. With a total loan capital of US $ 281,309 (126,589,077 CFA), the AWFFI program has benefited a cumulative number of 12,873 partners to date.
The highlight of the trip was the official inauguration of Coki Epicenter which took place on December 14th. The event, which was covered by the local media, was attended by the Governor, Traditional Chiefs, THP-Senegal National Council members but most importantly, community members of Coki who turned-out in the hundreds to take part in this special event. From the articulated speeches delivered by the epicenter and board president, it was clear that our partners at Coki understood the importance of creating a vision to ending their own hunger.
Overall, after visiting the various epicenters, the mission was very satisfied to see the visible progress that is taking place in Senegal under the new leadership of Madame Cisse. Since joining the staff of The Hunger Project, Madame Cisse has taken serious steps to restructure the working methodology of THP-Senegal which has added great value on the day to day work of the staff. Attached, we've included a few pictures from the trip for you to see.

PRINCETON (WVVA) - Two lanes of Interstate 77 southbound were briefly closed just outside Princeton Monday as crews worked to contain an automobile fire.
The fire occurred just around 1:20 p.m. near the 11 mile marker.
No injuries were reported. The SUV -- which was fully engulfed in flames -- was from North Carolina.
According to an account from a WVVA viewer on Facebook, traffic was backed up to the area of the Athens exit -- Exit 14 -- at 2:15 p.m.
The highway has since been reopened.
Princeton Rescue and East River Volunteer Fire Department responded to the scene.

The Moment Of Separation
Never did love know its place of belonging more than at the moment of separation. Life can seem mundane, relationships can seem poor, yet they are only as good as you make them. You only get out of something what you put in.
If you make a house with crumbing house bricks, and poor mortar, that same house will fall before long. Your relationships are just the same. If you they are not built with sound foundations, and the mortar, the bonding glue of love, they shall also fall.
Love is too precious, to let it slip between your hands, without taking time out, to rethink your actions. Focus on the good and work from there.
Never leave something until the last minute to fix, if you have problems, work on sorting them out now. Work on building things again from a sound foundation. You can always begin again with a relationship just like anything else. Do not leave it until the moment of separation to realise you could of done so much more!

Obese riders weigh on horses' health care costs
One-third of riders are too heavy, leading to health problems for their steeds. Now plus-size saddles are hitting the market.
The human health costs of the obesity epidemic have been well documented, but a new study is shedding light on another set of victims: horses mounted by overweight riders.
One-third of recreational riders are too obese for their steeds, putting the animals at risk for health problems including lameness and back pain, reports the U.K.'s Daily Mail, which cited a study from the Journal of Veterinary Behavior.
That may lead to higher health care costs for horses, which can already be considerable. While amounts vary, horse owners typically spend about $300 a year on routine health care for their animals, although that can increase to thousands if a horse is injured or ill, according to Equine.com.
Overweight riders can also cause the animals to develop behavioral problems, such as bucking and rearing, the Mail notes. (Whether the horses are trying to get the overweight riders off their backs or are just annoyed, the article doesn't say.)
"People tend to think horses are such big animals they must be okay, and not to take notice of the weight issue of riders. But the health impact on the horse can be quite extreme, quite quickly," Hayley Randle, one of the study authors, told the newspaper.
Recreational riding adds $11.8 billion in spending to the U.S. economy, with 2 million horse owners in America alone, according to the Equestrian Channel. To be sure, the academic study looked at the U.K., but weighty riders are likely an issue for American horses as well, given that the U.S. is the third-fattest country on earth, while the U.K. comes in at No. 10.
Adding to the problems of overburdened horses, plus-size saddles are hitting the market. The WOW "Bounty" saddle has a seat that's "designed to offer supreme support and comfort to the larger rider," according to Horse and Hound. Another company is also working on a saddle for heftier behinds.
A rider shouldn't weigh more than 10% of her horse's weight, the Mail notes, citing vet guidelines. But weight ratios aren't commonly known in the equine community, Randle said. She added, "People do seem generally to be a bit heavy for horses. That is just a consequence, I suppose, of our average weights going up."
Heavy riders sometimes pepper message boards with questions about which horses are best to carry weight (draft horses are frequently mentioned as potential steeds). When one woman asked what horse her 350-pound husband should ride, one forum respondent wrote, "Develop an interest in driving."
|Health careSports
This is so silly! I mean an average arabian is 800lbs so that horse should only ever carry 80lbs!
Come on, I have over 1000 competitive miles in endurance, she is 850lbs and 14.3 hands, she is one of my smaller horses and she has carried me a heavy weight rider THOUSANDS of miles, training, camping and NEVER lame. She is now 17 and still running strong, I have kids competing on her now as I have moved on to younger horses, however I just rescued a little arab mare that is 14.1 really short backed and was worried about her carrying me and she carries me just fine, and her recoveries are SUPER fast much faster then some of my bigger horses. I mean I don't ride super fast but these are miles and miles of serious riding.
The biggest problem I've seen, is horses being started too young. Horses bones are not fully hardened and mature till they are 4 or 5 years old, yet too many people start riding them at age 2 and 3 which causes problems for them in the long run.
Otherwise, I was taught that the average horse can carry 250 lbs. give or take. That's rider plus tack.
Some horses can handle more weight than others, and drafts such as Clydesdales, Shires, Percherons, Belgians, Gypsy Drums and others can handle even more weight and were used in the past to carry knights in armor and were also known as "Heavy horses".
But if you're too fat to get up in the saddle from the ground, then maybe you should take up harness and ride in a horse pulled cart.

The best advice that I could give anyone wishing to play the greatest game of all is this:
I would suggest you go to a range and just begin to hit some golf balls, mimicking what you think you saw on TV or what you believe you witnessed your friends doing. Let your own athleticism take you as far as it can.
If you still have the need for more punishment, find a facility that offers clinics and supplies clubs. Inquire and make sure the class sizes are small.
Between two and five people is plenty for your first formal introduction to the game. It also insures that you will get some individual attention. You may want to take a series of these clinics. They can be very informative and inexpensive.
At this point, you may want to get a rulebook and see what kind of rules govern this insane game. It will also give you some insight as to what you are getting yourself into.
If the bug has bitten you, and the game gets into your blood, the next step should be to find someone that you consider a really loyal friend who already plays the game. Plead your case as to your probable addiction, and talk him into taking you to a local club for a round of certain bliss.
I would suggest a par 3 or a course that is not too busy and one that is golfer-friendly. (This is where you have to have complete trust in your so-called friend.)
While playing, ask your friend questions about certain things like: why you probably have to take a cart, why they parked the cart where they did, fixing ball marks, the proper way of marking your ball.
These are all things that pertain to helping understand how to get yourself around the golf course.
If you are still convinced that this is a wonderful game, then I would begin to get serious about it. Find out what golf professional in your area has the reputation for being an excellent instructor and has the patience of Job. See if you hit it off and understand their concepts of the game.
If so, sign up for a series of lessons and make a commitment to set aside some time to begin practicing. It's not enough just to take lessons; you must apply what you are learning. Remember to be patient with yourself, as well as with the golf professional. You must practice to get better, but it's very important that you are practicing using the right information.
For this reason, I make my final suggestion. Make sure to see a P.G.A. professional, because their goal is to make this game as enjoyable for as many people as possible.

Comments about Gear One Ukulele Accessory Pro Pack (Tenor):
Love the case package and price. It is unfortunate that the stand doesn't fit in the accessory pouch. Aquila strings are better.
Best Uses
Comments about Gear One Ukulele Accessory Pro Pack (Tenor):
This is an incredible value. I resisted taking my tenor uke to shows because all I had for it was a flimsy gig bag. This case is better than a lot of my guitar cases, sturdy, well-designed, and a perfect fit. Great outside pocket, and the reinforced under-neck pocket for tuners and candy bars.
The Hercules stand is fantastic. I have five of the larger version of this for guitars, and I love them. They are simple, super-portable, and super-sturdy. I stick with Hercules because I play Martins, and they use a rubber that is safe for the Martin finish. I really think Hercules stands are the best on the market. This one is perfect for the uke.
I haven't tried the strings yet. I generally use Aquila on the ukes, so I can't really comment. I'll throw them on when I get a chance and see how they sound.
Bottom line, if you have a decent tenor ukulele, this is the best investment you can make.
Best Uses
Comments about Gear One Ukulele Accessory Pro Pack (Tenor):
After 60 days, I find the stand to be well built and functional. No complaints on the strings as they have yet to be used. The case, on the other hand, leaves something to be desired.
The screws are falling out of it. First a handle screw came off and now I see a couple of the others are working their way loose. This is particularly annoying as, to date, the case hasn't left my livingroom. It gets picked up daily to open when I am playing. Disappointing construction quality. I have an identical concert size case with a Lucky Penny logo on it that has no issues.
Best Uses
Comments about Gear One Ukulele Accessory Pro Pack (Tenor):
I couldn't believe what a great uke case this was when I opened it...looks like an expensive guitar case, but it is so affordable, and the stand and strings that came in the "package" are great, too..I am just really, really pleased with my purchase and strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to safely carry their tenor uke around!
Best Uses
Comments about Gear One Ukulele Accessory Pro Pack (Tenor):
Very nice stable, yet portable stand for my baritone and tenor ukeleles. The Aquila strings are generally my first choice for these instruments, but I have also enjoyed the D'Addarios as they are a bit brighter. The Lanikai tenor case is very sturdy, and gives great protection. This is a perfect package and I highly recommend it.
Best Uses
Comments about Gear One Ukulele Accessory Pro Pack (Tenor):
The case is very sturdy while still being lightweiht. Look & feel of a soft case, but with the protection of a hard case.
The hurcules stand is just awsome. Lightweight, easy to carry & holds the instrument securely on stage.

Comments about Gear One Ukulele Accessory Pro Pack (Tenor):

text: Posted Online: Jan. 08, 2013, 3:10 pm Letter: Washington put an end to responsibility taking holiday Comment on this story One year ago I had a letter published in this newspaper wondering when the government would stop robbing the Senior Citizens' Piggy Bank. In other words, how long would the payroll tax holiday last? We now know that it lasted two years, when job holders paid 2 percent less than previously toward the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA), which provides funding for the Social Security Trust Fund. Now that you who are currently employed are again required to pay 6.4 percent instead of 4.4 percent FICA taxes, commonly known as "payroll" taxes, many of you are grumbling about having to pay the customary contribution to your future Social Security pension. Why don't those of you who got the payroll tax break quit complaining and just be thankful that you were essentially given a bonus of 2 percent during 2011 and 2012? During the two year payroll tax holiday, the Social Security Trust Fund lost billions and billions of dollars, meaning that it will run out of money to pay current and future Social Security recipients their pensions even sooner than expected unless reforms are made. Please let your senators and representatives know that you want them to start looking for a solution to this looming financial fiasco sooner rather than later! Elaine Vinzant, Moline

Ocean County Prosecutor Joseph Coronato said Monday in a statement that investigators narrowed down the origin of the fire to a stuffed chair located along the east wall of the smoking area.
A team of investigators from federal, state, county and local agencies arrived at their findings thanks to the expert forensic assistance of the Ocean County High Tech Crime Unit in recovering critical video from the severely damaged motel surveillance system, Coronato said. As the investigation moves forward, the team will continue to analyze the recovered video, pre and post scene photos, along with interviews of motel guests and management.
"This is only the beginning of an intensive investigation aimed at answering the many questions surrounding all the circumstances that contributed to the tragic deaths, injuries and loss of property," said Coronato.
The statement Monday did not address whether or not there were sprinklers or other fire suppression systems in the motel.
A final fire report will be issued after interviews are conducted with local code officials, representatives of the Medical Examiner's Office, and surviving motel guests, Coronato said.
The prosecutor's office also identified the four deceased victims of the fire, all of whom died of smoke inhalation.
They are: John Alberti, 45, of Keansburg; Paulo Martins, 20, of South River; Harold Ford, 52, of Twin Lake Heights, Neptune; and Albert Sutton, 66, of Mount Laurel.
The Medical Examiner is continuing the forensic investigation to definitively achieve positive identifications, Coronato said, though the next-of-kin for all four victims have been notified. Alberti was the only victim thus far to be positively identified.Read More...

Crenshaw County will have to find a new superintendent. Randy Wilkes is leaving to be the new superintendent in Phenix City starting July 1st.
Folks in Crenshaw County are sad to see him go. "I immediately got tears in my eyes," says teacher Crystal Alsbrooks. And former teacher Patsy Owens says, "I feel like we're just losing two good people from our community and we're losing a good superintendent.
"All of our schools are academically clear, we are fiscally sound, we have strong facilities, he just this past season started efforts to get the vocational school back in, partnering with SMART to get our students job ready."
And in the process of leading students, Alsbrooks says he led the entire community. "He came in as a strong Christian leader for our schools, someone who had beliefs and didn't hold back with those beliefs and united us as a community."
Wilkes says Phenix City just contacted him about the job last week. He was not one of the two candidates publicly known to be interviewed.
Wilkes was elected to the superintendent's position. That's been changed to an appointed position. "The Board will take appropriate action to name an interim superintendent as well as proceed with the search for a new superintendent," said Board chair Ronald Rhodes in a written statement.

YU+ME: dream is a surreal love story. It is part high school romance, part journey/adventure story, and part total-mind-fuck. It is a complete story, so you don't have to wait for updates!
The comic began in 2004, when I was just out of high school, so the art is a bit shaky at first. Then I took some art classes and things got better.
Around page 450, I started experimenting with different art styles. As you can see in the image above, there's watercolors, vector, ink, and even clay! Don't like a style? Wait a few pages and it'll change.
This comic wrapped up on October 25th, 2010 at 847 pages.

Planet of Twilight by Barbara Hambly (1997, Bantam)
If you're expecting jokes about the title of this book, you're in for a disappointment. Every Twilight joke possible has already been made, I think, and such jokes are past their expiration date. Although, I did read part of Planet of Twilight in a room full of people who were watching Breaking Dawn.
The majority of this novel's action takes place on Nam Chorios, a planet where an anti-technology religious sect known as the Therans are fighting with a small minority of settlers for the right to dictate policy and decide whether the planet will join the New Republic.
The situation, it turns out, is nowhere close to being as simple as that, and Barbara Hambly treats us to a number of twists as the plot is unfolds and reveals itself to be a tangled web of petty rivalries, grand schemes for galactic domination, and corporate espionage. A deadly plague with the potential to spread throughout the galaxy is the primary threat here. This is a welcome change from "yet another planet-destroying laser/spaceship/missile."
Antagonists involved include an Imperial Moff, two former Jedi who have grown petty and self-absorbed, and a truly disturbing mastermind. He turns out to be an evolved bug, but despite my distaste for bug people, I thought that Dzym, a parasitic creature feeding on his minions' life force, was effective in his creepy-crawliness, owing to some graphic and disturbing passages from Hambly describing his many mouths and the pleasure he took from draining his victims.
As in her previous Star Wars book, Children of the Jedi, Hambly writes Leia very well, giving her way more to do than most authors tend to. Early in the novel, she is captured and held prisoner by Dzym and his underlings, but she escapes on her own and plays a crucial role in the book's climax. Hambly explores Leia's daddy issues and her fears about becoming another Vader if she learns the ways of the Force. It's very rewarding to see her finally confront these issues after so many other books that have dealt with them only fleetingly.
The highlight of the book, though, is its ending. Luke has also come to the planet of Nam Chorios, looking for Callista, the Jedi-out-of-time he fell in love with in Children of the Jedi. Callista had left on a journey of self-discovery after realizing that she wasn't getting anywhere with trying to reawaken her ability with the Force. When Luke finds her in this book, it's only to realize that the two of them are now on separate paths and can't be together. The last chapter of this book is very emotionally effective, leaving the reader with a wonderfully bittersweet feeling on the last page.
From what I can gather by flitting around the internet and reading discussion boards and comment threads, most fans really don't like Hambly's Star Wars work. They mostly cite a lack of coherence in the plots and some ill-defined distaste for her writing style. I'll agree that Children of the Jedi and Planet of Twilight aren't the greatest Star Wars books ever written, and her plotting can be a little difficult to follow in places (and sure, a Hutt with a lightsaber is a little silly). Still, I think that she gets the emotional center of each of the main Star Wars characters (including even C-3PO and R2-D2) just right, and for me, that's what's most important.

Audi was sitting pretty at the 2007 Los Angeles Auto Show with its new Cross Cabriolet Quattro Concept . Being a convertible crossover, the Cross Cabriolet received high marks amongst automotive enthusiasts. Of course, those same enthusiasts were not exactly optimistic that they were going to see this concept ever make it to the production line. Naysayers, move aside. Nissan has recently unveiled the Murano Convertible , so why couldn't we expect a Q5 Cabrio?
At the concept's launch, Design Chief of Audi USA, Brit Steve Lewis said: "Such a vehicle has been talked about within the company for some time as no one has ever done a cabriolet SUV before. If there is sufficient demand for around 5,000 units a year it could go into limited production." Back then he claimed we would see the Cabriolet in 2010, but the economic downturn made sure that wasn't possible. Now, new rumors suggest that the production Q5 Cabrio could arrive in 2013.
A production version will be a two door vehicle, with natural Quattro drive and a range of TDI and TFSI engines. It will also feature a canvas roof.

Greensboro — Good morning from Lake Oconee, where the UGA Athletics Association board of directors convenes today for its spring meeting.
Among the expected items of business: the 2009-10 athletics budget and the long-discussed major expansion of the football facilities at the Butts-Mehre building.
The Butts-Mehre project has been been on the drawing board for more than a year, with plans calling for expansion of the training facilities and weight room and construction of new offices and a large multi-purpose area.
"That is something that will be contemplated at the board meeting," athletics director Damon Evans said.
The spring meeting also is the point at which the next fiscal year's budget is submitted for board approval. While many college athletics programs are making significant cuts amid the recession, Evans said Georgia has held up relatively well.
"I would say this: If people want to use that term 'profit,' we're not going to have as much 'profit' as we have had in the past," he said. "But we'll still be in a pretty good position."
In the black?
"No doubt," Evans said. "We're not even close — nowhere close — to operating in the red. I think we have been fiscally prudent all the way along."
Evans acknowledged some revenue streams have suffered. As previously reported, contributions tied to football season tickets are down about $2.5 million-$3 million from last year's record level of about $26.5 million. Another revenue stream that has taken a hit, Evans noted: investment returns on endowment funds.
"We have had to make some adjustments, but not in a way where it has had any impact on how we overall operate and how we do business," Evans said. "I know a lot of institutions around this country are losing funding, cutting sports, cutting back travel. We're monitoring expenses even more closely than in the past because of where we are in the economy, but we're not in a bad position at all."
The athletics association has had no layoffs, he said.
At a board meeting in February, it was projected that the association would finish this fiscal year, which runs through June 30, with a profit of about $4 million, half as much as the year before.
"I'm always mindful of what's going on with the campus," Evans said. "Even in times in which things are OK with us, I think perception-wise we need to be aware and be sensitive of what's happening with the campus. So I don't want to be out here flying willy-nilly, just doing whatever because we may have some resources. Because I understand the campus is in somewhat of a struggle right now.
"That is one of the reasons we made the contribution we did –- because we want this institution to know we'll help," he said, referring to the athletics association's pledge in February to give $2 million per year for the next three years to the university.
More after today's meeting. . . .

It is a point of pride that the UGA Athletic Dept. is in such good shape fiscally.
Thank You Vince Dooley.
Let no one forget that the rise of the UGA Athletic Dept,, on the field and at the bank, happened when Vince Dooley was AD. Evans is doing a great job (except in the football scheduling area), but he inherited a great situation when Napolean Adams forced Dooley out.

I thought the expansion was due to all the Gymnastics titles.

Whew, it only took 5 years and a deep recession, but those withheld contributions are finally starting to send a message.

Keep up the good work Damon.
May 21st, 2009
9:04 am
damon evans walked into a near perfect situation left by vince dooley.
the scheduling of football games especially this year is total nonsense.
i wish damon would allow mark richt run the football program as most football coaches do,but we find ourselves with a schedule that places georgia at a decided disadvantage this year.
evans excuse is that uga needs more national exposure is simply very dumb.
dooley placed georgia on such a plateau that uga is not lacking in that department.
florida has the luxury of playing a far different non-sec schedule that uga and it will work to their benefit.
thanks damon,you have placed the dawgs in a very poor position because of your own poor judgement in having two major non sec games on this year's schedule.
May 21st, 2009
9:26 am
Damon says that the campus is in a struggle and they are having a meeting at Lake Oconee. Are they staying at the Ritz-Carlton or a Motel 6.
May 21st, 2009
9:29 am
3 major non-SEC games on this year's schedule I would say. Although AZ ST. may be iffy.
May 21st, 2009
9:29 am
So you would prefer a game against Charleston Southern and Florida International over Okie State and Arizona State? Give me a break. I don't want to see these joke games any more than we absolutely have to.
May 21st, 2009

I don;t think he ever said they were in a struggle. He said they were doing well and working in a comfortable situation financially Cuz.
May 21st, 2009

Stop the Crying!!!!! UGA will be fine. ASU and OSU are not the problem.
May 21st, 2009
9:48 am
Why the knock on Damon? He's a home grown georgia product that has done a terrific job. Sure he got a great start with the program Dooley left him, but remember the one thing Dooley and Adams agreed on when Dooley left was that Damon Evans was the best man for the job. Looks like they were right to me.
May 21st, 2009
9:49 am
Does this include an indoor practice field? It mentions an all purpose field but does not mention an indoor practice facility. Our recruiting competitiors like Bama, Auburn, UT all have indoor practice facilities while we got to ask the falcons for permission to use theirs. It sucks. Even Ole Miss has an indoor facility for Pete's sake.
Also, when are we gonna build a new basketball arena? We have the smallest, dinkiest b-ball arena in the sec. Its a joke and is like 90 years old. We are way behind with this creaky old building.
May 21st, 2009
10:07 am
Evans fails to understand that football exists because of the university. The university does not exist for football. Revenues were up because of championship expectations last year and Adams limiting student tickets in favor of season tickets for $25,000 donations. The university has cut everything from non-tenured professors to xerox copies while Adams' puppet, Evans, talks like the CEO of General Motors. I will continue to send a check for .34 a year until Adams retires to his villa in Costa Rica.
May 21st, 2009
10:08 am
Improvements, I completely agree. I can't figure out the resistance to these two items.
Honestly, UGA should have worked with the city of Athens and Clarke County 15-20 years ago to build an off campus arena to host UGA sporting events, as well as concerts and other entertainment. However, they've probably missed their chance now that the Gwinnett arena is 50 minutes away and would likely squash the non-UGA reasoning for building an Athens arena. I give Dooley credit for some things and blame for others. This is one where he deserves some blame and criticism. He was asleep on the job.
May 21st, 2009
10:37 am
It's kind of ironic when the rest of the University System is having to endure budget cut-backs and unpaid furloughs that the Glories Dawgs continue to spend money – what ever happened to priorities? what ever happened to education? I bet less than 10% of the football team could even get into college (much less UGA) if they weren't football players.
May 21st, 2009
10:42 am
They need to expand buttsmear to have a place to hold their state of georgia runner-up trophies, now that the new sheriff in town, Paul Johnson, is planning to kick their arses each and every year.
Thank God and Greyhound that chan gomer gailey is gone forever…you dawgies are really gonna miss him.
May 21st, 2009

All I want to know is if they have built the indoor practice facility yet? I don't think so…
May 21st, 2009
10:43 am
Let us not forget that all of our good fortune regarding fiscal responsibility started with Joel Eaves. He was the architect, Vince continued and added his expertise, and then groomed Damon Evans. We are indeed fortunate to be so solvent, however, some way to build an indoor practice facility should be found. GO DAWGS!
May 21st, 2009
10:46 am
If the AJC announced that the plugged toiled at a UGa sports facility had been "unstopped", bloggers would fill pages in response, pointing out how this makes UGa sports even more superior.
May 21st, 2009
11:01 am
Evans is doing a good job managing the $$$$ but Dooley was the best. Dooley didn't sell every spare second and space to advertisers either but our football tickets aren't yet in the $50-$100 range either. There is no need to build a new arena until men's basketball can fill this one up consistently. Recruits don't come to a school because of wide concourses, fancy concessions and nice seats that they will never use. Fans come to see a winner and will suffer poor amenities if the team wins. We don't really want to share anything with A-CC do we? I don't understand the dragging of feet toward an indoor football practice facility. Space near Butts-Mehre could be a problem there.

Since there is no reward in being a long time contributor, I just went back to the minimum donation. Basically, I can buy out of town tickets and pay a little more than donating to sit in the top of the stadium. So, if this trend continues, problems could exist in the future. This meeting could just as easily met at the Ga Ctr. which tries to show everyone how great they are with their prices….and a minimum stay…jdawg

Sweet! As if our facilities were not already top of the line! This should help us lock down new recruits. Now, save up uga and do something with our baseball stadium!
May 21st, 2009
12:45 pm
If they had the revenue back from the people who stopped attending UGA football games when the grass parking became restricted, they wouldn't need to borrow the rest of that expansion money.
May 21st, 2009
1:19 pm
Hop stop being a punk we need to play tough teams.
May 21st, 2009
1:27 pm
Hey Red Elephant…I wouldn't knock Georgia's facilities …they are already far superior to Bama's…it took you guys forever to enlarge your stadium….but when your program not very competitive for over ten years its hard to draw interest to do so,Huh? Your practice facilities are in the lower tier of the SEC…you guys need to step it up. Ole Miss ..by a long way has the best facilities in the SEC…Tne best indoor practice facility in the country…..college or pro.
Keep dreaming Bama…one season does not make you guys the team to beat..Utah showed that to everyone.
May 21st, 2009
2:00 pm
Stadiums are the best while teachers are the lowest paid, and students have the lowest scores. Are these things related in the south?
If the state of Georgia fires more professors, and cut teachers' salary by 20%, UGA can spend 20mil more on other dirt moving projects.
Just a thought.
May 21st, 2009
2:25 pm
Those aren't the same bank accounts. So no, not related.
May 21st, 2009
2:49 pm
1. The tough schedule in 2009 is where it needs to be. Teams (like Florida) who play two I-AA teams make me sick. There's no reason UGA shouldn't play at least two out of conference BCS schools (if not three).
2. The AA account and the academic side are totally seperate. The AA is a private entity associated with UGA. The money does not intermingle.
3. Richt has lost ONE regular season game to a non-conference team. I don't think the schedule of out of conference opponents has been the problem.
4. I love Dooley, but Evans has done a better job fiscally than Vince did.
May 21st, 2009

Without a successful football team, these monies don't exist…add that to your thoughts. Also, these projects will bring JOBS to Athens, etc…sometimes it really is good to spend monies on things. Wealth Envy is showing in some of these posts.

To those asking about an indoor facility, I saw some images of the architectural sketches about 60 days ago, and if they don't change, the "all purpose" field looks plenty large enough for indoor practices. They were small so it was hard to tell for sure, but it may have even been a full size field. These are much needed improvements if we are to keep up in the world of D – 1 athletics and recruiting. The current weight room is ok, but nothing like some other schools, and the new one looks incredible.
I agree with PTC Dawg on the wealth envy being didplayed in some posts. Remember, 19.5M of this is paid for by donations that were specifically made to fund this improvement. Those donations would not have been made for any other purpose. Also, the rest will come out of the athletic budget, nothing from the educational side. The athletic department will continue to donate $2M per year to the education fund. Finally, if you're unhappy with your current financial situation, don't whine on a blog; have some personal responsibility for creating your own situation. Remember – jealousy (wishing you had what another does) is fine and can motivate you to achieve more, but envy (wanting another person or entity harmed or destroyed for having what you don't) is an evil that will destroy you, not the one you envy.
Go Dawgs! Can't wait to see the new inprovements……
May 21st, 2009
4:10 pm
I, too, would like some clarification on the "multipurpose" area. Is that our "indoor practice facility" or not? That's a big glaring weakness, and it doesn't seem this expansion addresses that.
IMPROVEMENTS, the Athletics Dept. master plan calls for an EYE-OPENING renovation of Stegeman Coliseum, and trust me – it addresses the needs of that facility; but let's be honest, Stegeman's no worse than what they have at Vandy, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Florida (and they've won a couple of national titles there…), and only a slight notch below LSU's Maravich Assembly Center (and only then because they just spend beaucoup bucks renovating it). I just reeled off 5 of the 12 SEC schools that UGA's basketball facilities are comparable to. USC hasn't yet won anything with their new shared facility, Rupp hasn't apparently done much for Kentucky w/Billy G., and Tennessee renovated their mammoth building and took a step back, in it, so the facility, to me, isn't the problem. Besides, with all that's been spent updating it, and its expansion, it's a fine enough facility – especially given the lack of payoff on the court.
May 21st, 2009
4:13 pm
does the multi-purpose facility mean an indoor practice facility? or is that something different?
May 21st, 2009
4:18 pm
Ok, went back and found the PDF from onlineathens last year. Not sure if this is still the plan – The indoor field is by no means full size, but would work for just some bad weather days much better than the alternatives they have now.
May 21st, 2009
4:23 pm
Multi purpose means the band gets to practice in it.
May 21st, 2009
5:00 pm
How so? A 40 million dollar reception hall without indoor practice facilities?
May 21st, 2009
5:22 pm
So it would have been perfect for what they did to get ready for the tech game?
May 21st, 2009
5:28 pm
LOL! C'mon Tim. You're telling me for 40 million dollars this doesn't include an indoor practice facility? There would be no point otherwise. Not to mention the front page article in the AJC specifically mentions an indoor practice facility, and the artist's rendering at UGASports does indeed show an indoor practice facility.
Adams? Clueless as*clown. That's all I'll say.

Why don't they give money to the school so ACADEMICS can be upgraded? When you're behind the real flagship school in the most important categories, you ought to do something other than buying more pool tables and high def tv's for the criminals housed there.

I have yet to see from Damon an explanation for UGA receiving only 5,000 Oklahoma State tickets at $100 each. Who gets credit for this deal.

Hey! I know that dress is really beautiful. I am not very good at finding dresses but, there is a blog called seeitwantit and it is a blog where you inbox her a photo that you want to know where the item is from and then she tries to find it.
hope this helps :)
I think she took the apology well, and she is definitely glad you sent it. but the way she is speaking sounds like she is not very interested. I'm sorry

your welcome. hmm.. i think it depends on your intentions with her. if you genuinely want to apologize then i think you should do it. an apology is never a bad thing. If the only reason you want to apologize is to get with her then it's not really worth it. Think about it. Is she worth the apology? if she is an amazing woman then definitely apologize.

UNDATED (WSAU) The Big 10 Conference is dropping Suzie Favor-Hamilton's name from its female athlete-of-the-year award. The Stevens Point olympian admitted last year that she was working as a high-priced Las Vegas escort.
The Big 10 made the decision during conference meetings in Illinois yesterday. The University of Wisconsin was consulted and did not object to the change.
Hamilton was a stand-out track star at SPASH, and competed in the Olympics in 1996, 2000, and 2004. She was outed by The Smoking Gun web site, and later said she worked as an escort to deal with depression.

Black Friday is right around the corner and here's something to be aware of when you do your shopping. Your every move inside the mall or store is possibly being watched and recorded by Google. The online giant is testing a new program designed to monitor your shopping habits.
"Google is now using technology in your phone to track where you are going what you are shopping and what you are doing."
FOX 10's Social Media Manager Jeff Moriarty is talking about a program that Google is reportedly testing -- a way to track your smart phone so Google can connect online sales with your purchases at the mall -- and don't think your iPhone is immune.
"They are using their applications on the different smart phones so it works on both the Apple iPhone a your Android devices," said Moriarty.
Here's how it works:
"Let's say you want to buy an XBOX and you search for that in your phone and you head to the mall and you go into the store to purchase one. They can look at your location and say ha ha you searched for it, then went here.. no he's buying it and they are putting all of this together into one big picture of what you are doing," said Moriarty.
It's a program Nordstrom first tried on customers inside their stores.
"What they were doing is they would look at someone's phone, they would just see a phone come in.. now this phone is over in electronics.. now it's in clothes and it's moving around the store."
Google is taking it one step further: tracking you while shopping anywhere -- not just online, but while you are walking or driving from store to store.
"They say they are selling it to advertisers. Somebody says 'Oh, I want to be the number one,' add that shows up when someone searches for an XBOX, then that's something Google can charge them," said Moriarty.
As for reaction from our Facebook fans, most seemed resigned to the fact that surveillance is just part of life.
Diane wrote, "Who cares. If you think you have a private life, think again."
Melody has an idea, "Yep. I think I'm going to start paying with cash for everything."
And this from Tim, "Like it or not, this is just how it is nowadays. Everything you do is tracked and analyzed for the sake of gaining a competitive advantage. It is an uncomfortable reality, especially knowing that it'll only get worse, but a reality nonetheless."
Meanwhile, on Mill Avenue in Tempe, a mixed response to Google monitoring.
"It just depends on where that information goes," said Veronica. "I understand when they use it for personal advertisement and things like that."
Carlo said, "I don't feel right.. people tracking me down.. I feel like a hunted animal."
Igor adds, "I don't' really like it. It's Google I guess. They are a powerful company. They can do whatever they want pretty much."
But if there was a way to disable your phone? To keep Google or anyone else from tracking you. Would you do it?
"I think everybody would do that honestly. Anybody who didn't would be stupid not to," said Igor.
In fact, there is a way. First, turn off your wi-fi.
"If you are going out shopping, moving around town and you don't need your wi-fi to connect to your network, turn off your radio.. that's going to make it more difficult for any of these services to track where you are going," said Moriarty.
And turn off your GPS.
"On the iPhone, it's called location services.. see this little arrow going on up in the corner? That means something on your phone is reporting your location back," said Moriarty. "Turn off location services and turn off your wi-fi and these companies can't track you."
t would start tracking store visits in a blog it posted last month.
