Sony's Gaming Gamble
Neal is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Well it's about that time again. By that time I mean the year where new video game consoles are launched. Under normal circumstances that would be cause for celebration because sales increase. However there might be a patent that could drastically reduce revenue for one company.
Sony (NYSE: SNE) is currently working on a patent to potentially mark games as played and allow them only to be used on one system. An editorial from independent video game news website Game Industry News as well as other outlets have reported. What Sony is attempting to do is stop used games from being played on their system.
In my spare time I do a significant amount of gaming. Many of which are used games that I bought for a discounted price. Since the prices have gone up and the amount of hours employers are giving employees have gone down; affording multiple new video games is near impossible. Prices are getting too high for hardcore gamers let alone the casual person who plays just to relax.
The issue stems from a long and storied war between video game developers and used game retailers. Parts of the gaming industry have claimed that used game retailers have cut into their profit. No evidence has laid a solid foundation to this claim. Normally game developers have brought up the argument and this is the first time a console maker has taken steps in this debate.
Sony's competition is taking the smart action by allowing used games to continue in circulation for their consoles. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT)) is taking the smart course by following the trail left by the Wii U game system. Sony is taking a huge risk here by trying to slow down an entire area of retail.
With a fair amount of time between now and E3, Sony has a big decision ahead of them. If they want to stay competitive then they need to not go through with the patent. Brand loyalty only goes so far in a down economy. I don't see Sony pulling the plug on the plan and this will likely cost them. If Sony thinks that the used game market cuts their profit and work towards shutting it down they won't attract the numbers needed to stay afloat. I used to work retail at Best Buy and my entire time there I never sold a Sony computer or TV because of the price difference.
No doubt that Nintendo (NasdaqOTH: NTDOY) and Microsoft will use this to their advantage in terms of advertising. In the state the gaming industry is in any large groups of new customers is enough to warrant renewed confidence. I can really see Microsoft take more advantage of the patent due to close release dates. A reduced amount of launch sales could severely hurt Sony's stock.
As we get closer to the giant gaming expo known as E3 we will find out if Sony has decided to go ahead with this patent. I firmly believe that the use of the patent will only have minimal effect on used game retailers such as GameStop (NYSE: GME). While some of the business would be lost by the hardcore Sony gamers, the increase in gamers buying for the competing systems should balance out.
Another factor is the unveiling of more game systems like the Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) "Project Shield" hand held game. In addition to this surprise announcement also comes the Kickstart funded OUYA android based game set to release in April. With more consoles hitting the market, revenue is going to be tighter than ever before. Because of this Sony needs to realize that if they shoot themselves in the foot there may be no recovery from it.
That being said I think we can expect a small jump in Nvidia's stock if the game system is affordable and meets the hype of early articles. Android has been gaining high amounts of popularity which means there could be a shift in balance. Based off of Sony's latest track record it wouldn't surprise me to see them fall to fourth or fifth in the game race. Sony isn't placing gamers first and need to realize that specs like blu-ray aren't going to carry them through multiple hacks and shutting off used games.
My advice is to keep an eye out on Sony. As always they are withholding ninety percent of their consoles details. If all rumors about the patent is a hundred percent confirmed I advise trying to get some stock in Microsoft. Microsoft has been doing all things right in the game industry and have a great chance to push Sony to third place. I really believe that Sony is making a catastrophic choice by filling for this patent, but what's done is done. I feel it's going to get worse for Sony before it get's better.

Authorities in Evansville respond to the scene of an accident involving an EVSC school bus at 4th and Koehler near Central High School.
Police say a young driver rear ended the back of the bus.
EVSC officials tell us the bus was heading to Central High School and 13 students were on the bus at the time of the wreck.
One student on the bus suffered minor injuries after she hit her head on the seat in front of her and was taken to the hospital.
The driver that rear ended the bus was not hurt, but police say he will likely be arrested because he had "something illegal in his pocket" and was uncooperative with officers.

Have you ever created a baby registry?
How about a registry for a wedding or maybe your child's birthday?
GradSave is about the same concept, you create a college savings registry by going to GradSave.com and connect a 529 Plan or prepaid college savings plan to your GradSave account. Once you have your GradSave account page created you can share this with anyone; let's say Uncle Mike lives in Texas but you live in Vermont. How can Uncle Mike give to his niece or nephew each holiday season or birthday time? Well, Uncle Mike can put a gift of money into his niece or nephews college savings plan by utilizing the GradSave College Savings Registry that you created. I know many elders who would much rather give the gift of savings to a child than the gift of a materialistic item, for that is how they can pass along a future for their younger generation relatives.
With all that in mind, why not pass along the idea of saving for college by placing $10 coupons in your trick or treat bowl this Halloween? You will be able to educate others on how they can setup their own GradSave College Savings Registry and in turn they will be passing along the idea to their children that saving money is important. I personally wasn't ever taught to budget money nor save money, but I eventually did learn through trial and error. Would you not rather a child learn through example rather than trial and error? I think it's important to teach children to save at a young age so that they learn the concept that money doesn't grow on trees.
College is an important advancement for your child, whether they go to college for some off he wall career idea or they go for what you had hoped they went for, you must start saving now to be able to afford the ever rising cost of college tuition's. The younger your child is, the more money you can save. GradSave's College Savings Registry really makes it easier to save and allow family to donate to the child's college fund from afar. This Halloween you can go to GradSave Happy Halloween Page and sign up to register for your child's registry today or you can simply print off these coupons to hand out to your trick or treaters this season. Not handing out trick or treating items this year? If you are attending any Halloween event you can print off these images and do what I did; place them on cardboard or card stock and hand them out at the event.
Remember, this is a legit College Savings Registry so by signing up you are indeed attempting to allow your child's 529 or prepaid college fund to be attached to this registry so that others (friends and family) can donate to your child's college savings from anywhere at any time. Do not simply sign up because I am sharing this information with you; I am sharing this information as a great idea for Halloween hand outs and that I feel strongly about saving for college if you are able to do so. With GradSave College Savings Registry you can essentially take your child's college fund further by opening doors for far away relatives and friends to easily donate to the fund.
Click here to visit the GradSave Halloween Page. Remember to use my referral code of HHHAPB if you are signing up.
Click here to print these coupons in white (shown in images) or Click here to print in black to hand out this Halloween. {will open a PDF document in new tab/window}

Using MySQL Sandbox with Percona Server
One of the most useful tools if you're working with multiple versions of MySQL Servers is MySQL Sandbox which allows you to maintain many different versions of MySQL, Percona Server, MariaDB.

root@smt2:~/sandboxes# make_sandbox /tmp/Percona-Server-5.5.29-rel29.4-401.Linux.x86_64.tar.gz
unpacking /tmp/Percona-Server-5.5.29-rel29.4-401.Linux.x86_64.tar.gz
Executing low_level_make_sandbox --basedir=/tmp/5.5.29 \

Martin is a master of medieval fiction. While the Seven Nations are fictional, Martin created their history and bloodlines and legends and everything that makes history... well, history. So it really takes you in. Also his characters, both heroes and villians, are all flawed. So be prepared to sometimes root for a few of the bad guys and for the so-called good guys to do some pretty bad stuff at times. And whatever you do, don't read the Wikipedia article on this book. It will spoil the rest of the book and make it that much harder to finish. That's what I did. If I hadn't, I am sure I would have finished it by now, as I couldn't put it down before.

I enjoyed this book but only because I saw the first season of the tv show first. The writing is very slow. The characters are amazingly well developed, and I was very pleased at how closely the show mirrored the language and actions in the book. Will definitely be picking up the rest of this series as soon as I can force myself to finish the Hunger Games travesty.

I had not read fantasy for more than 10-15 years but decided to try this on my son's recommendation. Very good book. It's still early in the series to make many judgements about the whole thing. I've heard some interesting things about how the characters and the story develops over the (so far) five volumes. However, this volume was very good. Unlike a lot of fantasy there's not much magic (yet) but a few things are hinted at for the future (undead, dragons). The only thing that could be better is the female characters.

A really great book. I can't wait until the HBO series starts. Perhaps Martin isn't a master of fantahistorical political intrigue, I don't know; this is the first book of the kind I have read. But what I loved is that I cared about almost all of the characters. The one major flaw is that his 'good guys' are far more nuanced than his 'bad guys'. I read an interview quote from Martin where he claimed there were no black-as-night villains in the books, but that is just not true. At least in this book people like Cercei Lannister, and Viseris Targaryen are simply not sympathetic characters at all. And all the sympathetic characters are very very flawed. He can't stomach a purely good person, but apparently thinks giving a villain strong and obvious motivations is the same as making them accessible and understandable. Perhaps in the later books, as I see more of Cercei my opinion will change

This book sat on my shelf for at least a year before I started reading it. I quickly began kicking myself, wondering how on earth I could have ignored such a gritty and engaging story for so long. This book has an enormous cast of characters that give life to a rich and fascinating world, reminiscent of medieval Europe.

FARGO, ND. (KFGO AM) -- Since last Wednesday, Fargo has had 3.68 inches of rain, and KFGO forecaster Terry Spies says we haven't seen the last of it.
Expect a brief reprieve today before more rain and then snow move in tonight.
More rain is in the forecast tomorrow.
All the rain has sent the Red River and its tributaries on a fast rise.
The National Weather Service says the Red in Fargo could top out at 28.5 feet this Saturday.
That's 10 1/2 feet over flood stage.
Depending on additional moisture Spies says that crest could be "bumped up":
The high water has already resulted in closing Elm Street between 14th and 15th avenues north in Fargo.
The North Broadway bridge is closed when the river hits 22 to 23 feet and at 28 feet, the 12th avenue north toll bridge will close.
The floating bridge at Dike East was removed yesterday by city of Moorhead staff and Minn-DOT closed Highway 75 near Kent in Wilkin County yesterday due to flooding.
Detour signs are set up.
No other serious flooding issues are expected.

Breathing for Relaxation - Emily Carlson
How simple breath work can lead you to a deep state of relaxation.
By Claudia Cummins, Yoga Journal
Beginning students often ask for instructions on the "right" way to breathe. Alas, there's no single answer to that question, since the optimal breathing pattern at any given moment depends on the type of practice. Restorative yoga focuses solely on relaxation, though, and emphasizes breathing that creates calm and serene states of being. When you settle into restorative poses, try the following techniques for cultivating breathing patterns that are hallmarks of relaxation and well-being.
MOVE THE BELLY WITH THE BREATH. When we are at ease, the diaphragm is the primary engine of the breath. As we inhale, this domelike muscle descends toward the abdomen, displacing the abdominal muscles and gently swelling the belly. As we exhale, the diaphragm releases back toward the heart, enabling the belly to release toward the spine.
KEEP THE UPPER BODY QUIET. During high-stress times, it's common to heave the upper chest and grip the muscles in the shoulders and throat. When we're at rest, the muscles of the upper chest remain soft and relaxed as we breathe, and the real work occurs in the lower rib cage. To promote this type of breathing pattern, consciously relax the jaw, throat, neck, and shoulders, and envision the breath sweeping into the deepest parts of the lungs as you breathe in and out.
BREATHE EASY. Although some breaths may be deeper or faster than others, when we're relaxed, the alternating rhythm of the inhalations and exhalations feels like a lullaby—smooth, soft, and uninterrupted by jerks and jags. Consciously relaxing into this wavelike, oceanic quality of the breath deepens our sense of peace and ease.
LENGTHEN THE EXHALATIONS. When we feel stressed, our exhalations tend to grow short and choppy. When we're relaxed, though, the exhalations extend so completely that they are often longer than the inhalations. Some teachers even instruct that if we're deeply relaxed, each exhalation will be twice as long as the inhalation. To facilitate this, try gently extending each exhalation by one or two seconds.
PAUSE AFTER EACH EXHALATION. In our most relaxed state, the end of each exhalation is punctuated by a short pause. Lingering in this sweet spot can be deeply satisfying and can evoke feelings of profound quiet and stillness.
LET THE WHOLE BODY BREATHE. When we are at ease, the whole body participates in the breathing process. Imagine a sleeping baby: When he breathes in and out, the belly swells and releases, the hips rock to and fro, the shoulders bob, and the spine gently undulates. This offers a mini-massage for the muscles and organs of the whole body, and turns each breath into a soothing melody that further calms and quiets every cell within.

Swami Vishnu-devananda was the first in the West to develop a training program for yoga teachers. He did this not only with the vision to develop yoga professionals, but also to give sincere aspirants the skills of personal discipline and to develop messengers of peace. The Course is a profound, personal experience, based on the ancient gurukula teaching system, integrating the student's daily life into the yoga training. By the end of the intensive four-week course the student will possess a firm foundation for teaching others, in addition to strengthening his or her own yoga practice with self-discipline and awareness of the nature of body, mind and spirit. Upon graduation from the course, students receive a certificate of qualification. The program has seen the graduation of more than eleven thousand students over the last thirty years. Men and women come from all around the world take part in the training, which is given in English with simultaneous translation into European languages, as well as Hebrew, Japanese, Hindi, Tamil and Malayalam.
we developed a program that teaches you everything you need to know to teach yoga AND run a successful yoga business - and you can learn it from home, at your own pace.
I call it the "Yoga Teacher Training Camp" for Home Study Yoga Teacher Certification.
And with the praise I've received for the original camp-in-a-box, I've been inspired to create a full collection of home study courses for popular and important Yoga Teacher specialities, such as Restorative Yoga Teacher, Kid's Yoga Teacher, Chair Yoga Teacher, Pre-natal & Post-natal Yoga Teacher, Yoga Teacher Trainer (level II), Vinyasa Yoga, Meditation Teacher, Yoga Anatomy and more.
Equally important, I've developed courses and tools to help Yoga Teachers run successful Yoga Teacher businesses. After all, it's one thing to devote yourself to doing what you love (Yoga), but it's quite another to be able to support yourself comfortably and securely while doing it. You won't learn these skills at a typical Yoga Teacher Camp.
Whether you're an experienced Yoga Teacher needing to re-certify or a beginner looking to become a yoga teacher - you've come to the right place. Our Free Yoga Teacher Community will help you find what you're looking for.

The Best Baseball-Inspired Art
Baseball's back! I only know this because I have a few baseball lovers in my life who keep me updated, but I am more than eager to celebrate the return of such a beautiful game. I hereby present my favorite baseball-based works of art, just in time for spring training. I'm pretty sure...
- I know I've seen Major League, but I don't remember any of it. Perhaps that's because it was, according to Rotten Tomatoes, "predictable and formulaic, but buoyed by the script's light, silly humor"? This poster by Entropy Trading Co makes it look like it was awesome.
- The Diamond Dictionary of Hitting by Reiss Design is chock full of hilarious words ("bloop", "tater") sure to impress your baseball-savvy friends...
- Adam Juresko's Field of Dreams print makes me think I would love that movie. But it's really sad, right?
- The next two prints are The Flip and The Catch, both by Just A Bit Outside. Man, I do love an infographic.
- I love the approach of this No True Lover print by Huntington BBC: you refrain from throwing bottles not because you'll get fined, or kicked out, but because you love baseball and its players. That philosophy could apply to almost anything in life.
- I searched high and low for a piece of art that did justice to one of the greatest baseball movies ever, but this Bull Durham photo by Big Tex Photos was the best I could come up with. Don't get me wrong, Big Tex, it is a very nice photo- I'm just surprised there aren't more works inspired by the movie.
- I can't say I really understand this Baseball and Tennis screenprint by Gold Teeth Brooklyn, but I always love their stuff. Maybe it's perfect if one half of a couple (or one kid) plays tennis, and the other plays baseball?
(All images as credited above.)

Thank you for this! My husband is a HUGE baseball fan (I'm a slightly less huge fan), and I missed his birthday so these will be great!
I LOVE the Bull Durham one. I saw the Durham Bulls with my dad as a kid and it was one of my best memories.
I'd like to see Just a Bit Outside do "The Steal" from the 2004 ALCS.
Couldn't find anything on Abbott & Costello's "Who's on First?" Baseball season cannot truly begin without it. It would make a great infographic.
Thanks so much for including my No True Lover print in your post! That phrase was a major focal point behind home plate at the old South Side Park in Chicago, circa 1907. Times have changed! I love the combination of gentle language and rowdy fans.
So glad to find out about Just a Bit Outside ~ thank you!!

Of course.
There are several things that I see as failures in it: 1) links are simple text links, making touching them harder than if their "hit" areas were larger and 2) some of the items are floated, just as in Curve original, but it makes it very tight in some areas. It could be done better as vertically laid out instead. And 3) what are topic icons doing there, really? Its taking up a 1/5 of the width, if not more.
That, and the fact you have the theme running with TP on the outer sides, makes it a tight squeeze on a phone..
I am sorry, but the reason tapatalk or Dragooon themes are better, are the consideration of these things. Its not a "second-hand" medium and deserves to look as great as it does on computers.
TP? What site are you on?
Let me demonstrate how it works:
Dragoon's cellular mod does that. Better to also modify the markup as depending just on css changes isn't really the best choice.

Bear Bryant used to end his Sunday night television show with these words: "Don't forget to call your Mama. I wish I could call mine." I was lucky to be with my Mama on Sunday in Madison, Ga. Hope you had a great Mother's Day as well.
The ACC Spring Meetings begin today at the lovely beach-front Ritz-Carlton Hotel at Amelia Island. Think the Big Ten's possible expansion plans will come up? Yes it will because there are some athletics directors who are going to sit in the day's first meeting with commissioner John Swofford and want to know three things: 1) What do we expect the Big Ten to do? 2) How do we expect the SEC to react? 3) What is our plan if No. 1 and No. 2 both happen?
It wasn't that long ago that the ACC was expanding and dipping into the Big East for three teams (Miami, Boston College, Virginia Tech). The ACC was the aggressor in an effort to expand to 12 teams and bulk up its status as major player in football.
It hasn't been a failure as some detractors would suggest, but neither has it been the rousing success that the football forces in the ACC had hoped. Florida State and Miami, which were placed in separate divisions to maximize their punch, are still struggling to get back on the national stage. The conference championship game has been a mixed bag, depending on the matchup. The ACC remains the only conference of the Big Six not to place two teams in BCS bowls in the same season. The landscape of college football has changed dramatically since the ACC last expanded.
The ACC did get a good initial TV contract from expansion but that contract ends after the 2010-2011 season. The ACC is in the midst of its negotiation for a new football deal and the numbers that are being offered, I've been told, are not particularly good given the marketplace, where the economy is down and the Big Ten and SEC are sucking up about 50 percent of the available dollars. Don't be surprised if the ACC brings on another TV partner, like Fox or the NFL Network, hoping to generate more revenue.
The fact is that the ACC is as vulnerable right now as the Big East was back in 2003. Here's why:
If the Big Ten expands to 16 teams the SEC may feel the need to follow suit. The SEC could look to the ACC and take some teams (like Florida State) to solidify its Southern footprint.
Here is another item that should concern you as an ACC fan. My buddy Blair Kerkoff of the Kansas City Star reports that the Pac-10 and Big 12 are having discussions about the possibility of forming an alliance and negotiating their TV deals as one unit. Together they would have more clout (and more television sets) than individually.
Here are the facts, folks, and I hope my friends in the ACC are reading this down in Amelia Island. If the Big Ten goes to 16 teams, the Big East is going to be out of the football business. The SEC and the Big Ten dominate the marketplace. They will get their money while the Pac-10, Big 12, and ACC are going to be scrambling for what's left.
If those three conferences don't already have contingency plans in place, they had better put them together—and fast. I know that Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany has said his expansion plans are still in a 12-18 month window. I don't believe that and there are some very smart people who work in this business who don't believe it either.
Because once the Big Ten makes its move, this thing is going to move very quickly. It's going to be like a high-stakes game of musical chairs and somebody may get left without a quality seat, financially speaking, at the college football's Big Boy table. And that could be our friends at the ACC.

If, for argument's sake, the SEC takes four from the ACC, then which teams are most likely to move from the Big East to the ACC? Or are we talking about a different set of schools altogether?
What's your best guess, Tony?

If all these expansion scenarios come to pass, what are the ACC's options? Hopefully, the Big Ten will not expand to 16. The chain reaction would make a mess of college football.

Just absorb the ACC. 24 teams, 4 divisions with the Gators and Tide still on top!

I don't understand why the Big 10 would want to expand to 16 teams. That would be 5 more teams to split the same pot of money. So, those 5 new teams would have to generate that much more money, and the Big 10 would have to get new TV contracts worth enough to just keep what they have now. Also, unless the BCS changes, the Big 10 would only be able to get a maximum of 2 teams in each year, and that money would be divided 16 ways instead of 11. I just don't get it. I get why they would want to have 12 teams – to have divisions and conference championship game, but 16??
May 10th, 2010

I just hate the idea of these "superconferences" with 16-18 teams. The Big East in basketball for instance where some teams don't even get to go to the conference tournament. Takes away so much of the excitement. Diluted is the word that comes to mind, like adding a glass of water to your glass of beer….

What is the ACC?
May 10th, 2010
9:19 am
Wow this sounds like 2004 when all the SEC pundits said that the ACC would never get a bigger contract after expansion. In fact many predicted ESPN would downgrade the tv deal — that didn't happen. ESPN doubled the contract and the ACC landed the most lucritive basketball contract in the country later that year. As recently as 2006/07 the ACC was paying out more to its members than the SEC. That has changed with the SEC's new deal of course…
Tony I don't think there are any teams in the ACC that will leave for the SEC. Slive's a big talker and bluffer and wants to appear to have a position of strength in the face of Big 10 talks. Football dollars be darned, the fact is athletics make up such a SMALL part of the budget for these schools. Research money dwarfs the television deals. The ACC wants to be a player in football, but not at the expense of admission standards or academic clout. Georgia Tech conducted $500 million in research last year (compare to UGA's $200 million). Compare that even to the 'massive' dollars that the SEC getting per member for athletics — what 15 – 20 million? I think the ACC presidents have their priorities right.
The ACC will get a deal. It wont be the biggest, but it will reflect the conference's basketball strengths as well as growing football presence. The conference is more stable than the big 12 and big east, who appear to be the main targets of the Big Teen.
May 10th, 2010

I see what you're saying Tony, but as a tradionalist i hate these super conferences..The old rivals will go by the wayside..Also not going to be as many champions as in the past which will lead more coaches to the graveyard.

If the ACC would proactively add Pitt, Syracuse, WVU and UConn, they would solidify BC's membership (now have a northeastern rival(s)) and add value in football (Pitt, WVU w/rivalry) and solidify basketball as the clearly the best conference (Pitt, WVU, Syracuse and UConn are all SOLID programs). The northeastern footprint would bring in allot of TV dollars for an ACC Network.

Tony, it's only logical that if there are four SuperConferences, it will be the Big XII, and not the ACC, that dissolves. If the Big Ten expands to 16 teams, Mizzou and Nebraska are almost certainly gone. If the SEC expands, they'll almost certainly make a play for Texas and A&M. With those two gone, the Big XII is no longer viable. The Kansas and Oklahoma schools would make the only play they have left: joining the Pac 10. Even if the ACC loses, say, FSU and Clemson, it will replace them with the Big East's leftovers: WVU, South Florida, etc. Maybe Notre Dame would even join if they foolishly spurn the Big Ten. The ACC would be weakened, but by no means irrelevant. It's the Big XII that should really be worried, for the simple reason that they are landlocked and in a sparsely populated region. If Texas goes, the whole pile of cards falls.

Kilroy, The Big12 is the most unstable. OU is the biggest team that could be without a chair when the music stops.
The ACC does stand to fall further behind even after their expansion, if the SEC or Big10 take 2 top teams.
May 10th, 2010
9:39 am
The ACC is on the defensive as they now have the least bargaining power of the BCS football conferences. My guess is they no choice but to be reactive to what the B10 and SEC do. After they lose FSU, Clemson and one other school (GT or Miami), they'll pick up the remains of the BE conference WVU, Louisville, USF, maybe Rutgers and add ECU
May 10th, 2010
9:43 am
No way UF allows F$U or da U into the sec. No way UGa allows GT into the $ec. No way lil carolina allows Clem's son into the $ec.
And why would any $ec school want to vote to admit 4 more schools and cause their espn pie to get sliced up into smaller pieces?
The ACC has been working behind the scenes for some time, in talks w/ the Pac 10. The Big 12 is not the only possible marriage for them. They would see an even bigger opportunity to create a sports network with an ACC hook up. The time zones would cover the nation in prime time coverages, and the basketball, baseball, and Olympic sports coverages would trump anything the Big 12 can offer..which is nothing but football. Not to mention the population of cable subscribers is vastly bigger in ACC states than in the mid-west area of the Big 12.
Slive is posturing. Delany will add some teams, but the $ec will do nothing. And the ACC will be just fine…either standing pat, or getting married to the Pac 10-12 in a cable network that will be as big or bigger than what the Big 10-16 has.

The ACC is the poor little basketball conference that's 10-11 vs. the SEC in football head-to-head over the past two seasons.

The biggest problem with the ACC is that they are inconsistent. Rarely do you have the same teams year after year competing for the conference championship, much less competing for anything on the National Stage. In a lot of ways, teams like Boise State and TCU have more recognition than most, if not all, ACC teams. VT, GT, FSU, and UM are too inconsistent. If the expansions occur, the ACC will be driven even farther to the bottom of the food chain because no powerhouses will want to be a part of the Almost Competitive Conference. It is what it is…

Well, this is one of those RARE occassions that I agreee with TB.
Its musical chairs, and the ACC & Big East are vulnerable.
No way in Hell Texas & TxAM joins the SEC.
Right now, Tx, TxAM, OK, OKSt OWN the Big 12 "cash register." Theyre not gonna relenquish that to ANYBODY for ANY REASON. Period. End of Story.
Mizzou & Nebraska going to the Big10 seems like a highly probable outcome. That would mean adding at least 1 more or 3 more.
Which: 1 or 3? Perhaps Iowa State wins the Big 10 lottery
for the last spot.
A website called "Frank the Tank" has a very good analysis of possibile Big 10 outcomes includung the idea of an alliance between Pac10 and Big12.
If Nebraska and Mizzou move to Big10, the Big12 would be down to 10 teams. The idea is that the Pac10 and the Big12/10 would be an alliance of 20 teams. Kind of a new "Great Western" conference, with Pac10 & Big12/10 "divisions" all playing a round-robin basis. Not really a bad idea at all, b/c all teams would play every other team in their "division."
The fate of the ACC& Big East relies solely on Notre Dame.
If ND DOES NOT go to the Big10, then Big10 could look to force ND's hand and push for 16 teams by raiding the Big East, forcing ND to abandon theie Big East alliance.
If ND DOES move to the Big10, then Big10 expansion likely stops at 14, with the addition of Nebraska, Mizzou, and ND.
SEC could choose to add FSU, Clemson, GT, TCU, SMU, Houston, or Louisville. Miami seems a very unlikely candidate. Dont overlook NCSt as a long shot possibility.
Big East & ACC better say a "Hail Mary" that ND goes to the Big10.

Can't ignore the facts, ACC attendance numbers, are down down down….
2005 the ACC Championship Game drew over 72,000 fans.
Fast forward to 2008, only 27,360 fans bothered to show up.
Big jump in 2009, all the way to 42,815 fans.
Most schools draw more than that for a regular season tune-up game against a 1-AA school.
TB is right, the ACC needs to do something, quickly.

Adam, You need to check out the pre-season Top 25 from S.I. and even our own esteemed Mr. Barnhart.
The almost competitive conference is smoking your $ec in preseason rankings. Yea, yea,…I know we have to play the games before making noise. But the ACC is hardly the doormat it once used to be.
Times they are a changin', and for all you $ec historians who are perpetually looking backward, you might just be in for a few surprises…like this year.

XPatHeel, UGA would let GT in, it opens up an OOC game and with expansion on the horizon and the longer conf schedules that most likely come with it, may make an extra OOC date even more of an advantage. UF and FSU would be much the same.

Obviously everything depends on what the Big 10 does, whether it's one more team or if they end up with 14 or 16. If it's 16 the ACC could be in real trouble if they lose any of VaTech, Clemson, FSU and Miami, or even all four.
I think it is very wise that the Big 12 has been proactive with the possibility of losing Texas and A&M by having discussions with the Pac 10.
It is going to be interesting when the Big 10 makes its choice(s)and then the dominos are going to fall. It appears that big changes in the makeup of the BCS conferences will become a reality.

Tony says the ACC conference championship game has been a "mixed bag". What does that mean, with attendance and the TV audience ranging from bad to horrible? Has there ever been a really meaningful or memorable ACC championship game?
May 10th, 2010
10:01 am
ACC-CG has "suffered" mainly due to poor location.
Jax was not the best choice to pull in fans from VT and BC.
Tampa was not the best choice for GT and Clemson fans.
ACC-CG in Charlotte beginning in 2010 will dramatically change the numbers and will likely result in complete sell-outs going forward.

If the Big Ten expands to 16 teams they would almost have to go to 2 divisions and add a conference championship. That opens up the question of where it's played and who goes into which division. There's also the question of what happens to conference rivalries and the academics of the conference will be an issue as well if they expand. That's a lot of change to absorb in one or two years. I see them expanding but not to 16 teams.
May 10th, 2010

The REAL outcome of ALL conference realignment/expansion really
depends on only 1 thing:
What will Notre Dame choose?

[...] the ACC starts its meetings today, so they need to figure out what their plan is. The ACC did get a good initial TV contract from expansion but that contract ends after the [...]

Bulldog59, When the ACC expanded last, Swofford had to swallow a bitter pill….giving the conference championship game to the state of Florida. Everybody expected either F$U or Miami would be in the game and the attendence would be strong as a result. They tanked, and so has attendance.
That's now behind us. This year and for several to come, the game will be played in Charlotte, central to more schools, and the game will draw big numbers. Tune in. 12/4; ESPN; Prime Time.

T3, Colorado has been very open to a move to the PAC10 and at that point the Big12 is down to 9 with the 3 historically strongest football powers in the Big12 North gone. Yes the Big12 could add Boise St, TCU etc but CFB is tradition and those teams don't bring TV ratings.
If ND moves to the Big10 expansion maybe over, more than 12 is a risk and ND is a big TV draw. The Big10 would have their money, tradition, and academic standards.
ExPat, UNC maybe back to a top 25 team but that will most likely only last as long as the coach stays, just like Mack Brown. However I do agree the ACC will be back. FSU and Miami have been in the middle of NCAA investigations, scandals, coaching changes etc. The programs have suffered as a result. I think with the current coaching staffs in place both teams will be back in BCS bowls in the near future.

But, if a college presidents take a look at the overall financial picture of the college, he will have a totally different perspective.
OK, let's assume the reshuffling give each ACC college additional $10million.
But a good college researcher can attract $5million. Just go ask how many Tech researchers attract $5million research funding on a yearly basis.
Overall, Tech's research funding is in the hundreds of millions. That additional $10million (great if possible at all) is peanut change to Tech's overall financial picture.

When the acc produces on the field results, I will give the acc the props it deserves. The sec can have a subpar year on the field and still be a better conference. The fact that you brag about preseason rankings in May just proves how pathetic of a league you are in football.

10:12 am
DP, Wake Forest's 9-6 win over Reggie Ball & Co. might be one of the greatest games of all time. It was so good that I almost rushed home from Home Depot to try and catch the end, but I decided that a new toilet plunger was more important.
Tony, the ACC has never been at college football's Big Boy table. This would be nothing new. Who in the hell would miss ACC football? Not a soul.
May 10th, 2010
10:16 am
HEY JASON, if the SEC is such a great football conference, why are they only 11/10 against the ACC over the past 2 seasons. Don't think that percentage is so great.

I don't think it will come to the the ACC losing teams to the SEC because the SEC will not expand.
The Big 10 wants to get their network into the most households nationwide. They do this by forcing the Big East's hand on Notre Dame. I expect they will offer three Big East teams to join the conference. The Big East, of which Notre Dame is a member in all sports except football, will go to Notre Dame and ask them to bail them out. Notre Dame will decline. The Big East will then tell Notre Dame to get out of the conference completely. But Notre Dame needs a conference for sports like women's field hocket, etc. The Big 10 will offer Notre Dame membership, retract the offers to the other Big East schools, and Notre Dame will become a member of the Big 10.
This gets the Big 10 into households nationwide because, even though Notre Dame carries very little cache in the south, it's really the only school they care about in the northeast. Done and done…
May 10th, 2010
10:24 am
Money on the table:
Big10 takes Nebraska, Mizzou, and Iowa State.
All 3 AAU schools, which is a REQUIREMENT by all Big10 school Presidents.
Big10 gets a championship game.
Great geographic fit. Easy travel by teams and fans, which is important.
Adds "quality" to the Big10 football product.
Dont overlook the State of Iowa "arm-twisting" some folks to add Iowa State to Big10. Same way State of Texas arm-twisted folks to pair Tx & TxAM together. Same way State of Virgina required "pairing" UVA & VT.
If Neb, Mizz, and IowaSt all go to Big 10, SEC can say goodbye to Arkansas. Jerry Jones is gonna do ANYTHING NECESSARY to see his alma mater added to the Big12. He WANTS to see HIS Hawgs play in HIS new stadium on a REGULAR basis.
So, SEC will face a choice: replace just Arkansas or add 3 teams.
Slive will likely add 3.
Most likely for 3: FSU, GT, and Clemson.
May 10th, 2010
10:26 am
Yes,if the Big 10 went to 16 teams the pie would have to be cut into more pieces.That is not the issue.The issue boils down to how big is the pie? If the Big 10 added some of the heavily populated TV markets in the northeast,the pie would be bigger when those TV contracts are negotiated.

Unlikely Colorado will move to Pac10

Georgia needs to head over to the ACC, they got a better shot at a conference title and a BCS Title berth over there then where they are now. 41-17
May 10th, 2010
10:32 am
XpatHeel, yep, I'm aware of the move to Charlotte, and the underlying reasons, one being to boost attendance. Smart move. If Miami or FSU is in the game, those fans travel well (or at least they used to.)
Still, it illustrates the issue, I drove all the way to Shreveport to see UGA in a meanless bowl in Nowhere, USA, also known as Shreveport. I'm a little baffled why fans wouldn't do the same to see their team compete for a conference championship. Could be those folks planned on going to their respective bowl games instead.
Smart move by the ACC for sure.
May 10th, 2010
10:34 am
T3 the best way for Jerry to get his Hawgs to play in his new stadium regularly would be OOC matchups with Texas or Texas A&M.
If Texas sees 3 teams leave the Big12 North for the Big10 and another for the PAC10 they maybe ready to take a big check from the SEC.
If Iowa St leaves as you say, and Texas and Tx A&M leave for the SEC, OU is left without a chair when the music stops.
The Big12 maybe talking with the PAC10 as a way to prevent the PAC10 from signing Colorado.
May 10th, 2010
10:38 am
Doesnt matter where they put the game, most in the country do not care to watch the ACC championship game. Yeah, maybe it being in charlotte will help get the NC or Wake Forest fan base to attend more, but overall most others dont care because every year the title game is between two schools that have no impact on the national scene. Last year you get one decent team and a 5 loss Clemson team. The year before, two 4 loss teams in VT and Boston College. The only way that game is getting major attention is if FSU and Miami become what they were in the 80s and 90s and face off for the title game, which isnt going to be happening any time soon. Until then, the game will continue to be on a noon and be the game that most turn on and only see by flipping through the channels catching part of the 3rd qtr only to get ready to watch the SEC title game later that day.
May 10th, 2010
10:39 am
Bulldog59, part of the issue is that you get only two weeks or so to plan to go to a conference championship game whereas for a bowl you get a month to plan. Also, most people are off from work between Christmas and New Year's so it's easier to get there. But it's tough to get time off from work in early December because everyone is trying to get their stuff done.
But your point is well taken.
May 10th, 2010
10:39 am
T3, agreed with the alliance Colorado moving is unlikely without it, it is very likely.
Alot of politics and backroom deals have yet to be played out.
May 10th, 2010
10:40 am
Makes my head spin, Tony. "Alliance" between the Pac-10 and Big 12? Now it sounds like a Monopoly-style board game. Let's not add games & not extend the season. Let's stick with strong regional conferences and make teams and conferences 'earn' their attention every Saturday between the two end-zones. 'Nuff said.

I arrived at the White House Inn quite accidentally after getting caught out in severe weather while motorcycling. It was late and I was tired. I was concerned that the room wouldn't be nice/clean/etc. I quickly found that my fears were unfounded. The room was very nice as were the owners. Another pleasant surprise was to find that there was an attached bar and restaurant. The food and beer were both very good and reasonably priced. Enjoyed visiting with Jim and his wife. The wait staff even stayed late to ensure that I had enough beer. :-) I may need to rethink my auto-pilot Holiday Inn Express stays since staying at an Inn like this allows you to meet great people and experience "true America." Highly recommended stop.

Very pleasantly surprised with comfort and cleanliness of the room. Staff is very friendly and food is very good, too. Away from the tourist crush of Cooperstown and great for HOF weekend.

Spend days slogging your way through the "Teen Screams" section on Netflix like I just did, and a film like "The Hazing" comes as nothing short of a revelation. In a world where it seems like people have forgotten how to make "fun" horror movies on small budgets, it does everything right, for a myriad of reasons.
I'm supposed to watch something else to review for the site today but I can't stop staring at this title in my Netflix Instant queue. Tiffany Shepis is an evil siren... (slight NSFW trailer after the jump)
Anthony Mackie has been added to the cast of the long awaited big screen adaptation of Max Brooks' "World War Z". The cast already includes Mr. Brad Pitt and Mireille Enos and is set to begin filming this summer. Mackie is currently filming "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" and 7 other movies, but I hope he gets some time to really drink the beauty that is Brad Pitt. God, I'd love to just get a lock of his hair or something. I've said too much.
Jane Levy looks like she could be anywhere between 11 and 30, but now she's been added to the cast of the teen Halloween comedy "Fun Size" so that means she's got to be a teen right? Is it creepy that I'm even bringing her age up? Little bit right? Are you uncomfortable? You should be! Anyway, the film focuses on a young girl who takes her little brother trick-r-treating, loses him and then spends the night trying to track him down before her mother finds out. I'm on some sort of watch list now aren't I... damn this site!
Do you love Godzilla? Well then you're sure to have lukewarm feelings about the new spoof "Notzilla: Duke of the Monsters"! Alright, honestly the movie, which already has Patrick Warburton and George Takei attached to it, looks like it could be funny for a half hour or so, but it's currently looking for distribution and the good people behind the film have put out a trailer to get some buzz going. If you have about 1.5 million it could be yours. Won't you help!? Won't somebody think of the children!?
Remember when seeing names like Tony Todd, Kane Hodder and Tiffany Shepis in a cast meant you were going to see a quality film? No, me either, but that doesn't matter because all three have been cast in the new werewolf flick "Hallow Pointe". The story takes place at a bed and breakfast where a couple must fight to stay alive when they find themselves checked in on the night of a full moon. I swear to god if I have to sit through another Kane Hodder sex scene I'm never watching another movie. You've been warned!
An empty house near Salem Massachusetts apparently called 911 on it's own after a pipe burst and caused toxic mold to form while the owner was away. Of course, "the man" is trying to say the call, which was just a hand up, was caused by the water shorting out the phone line and sending a random call out to 911 but anyone with an ounce of smarts know it's the work of demon witches from days of old. It's the only explanation.
A father in Queens NY is under arrest after his son brought the father's 8mm hand gun to school and sold it to another student for $3. Of course the father is pissed about the whole being arrested thing but I can't imagine he's too happy about his gun being sold for $3 bucks. You've got to imagine he could of gotten at least twice that.
Kate Bosworth, Diane Kruger, Eva Mendes and Paula Patton are all reading for parts in the upcoming remake of "Total Recall". It's like some sort of weird twisted version of "m/f/k" (Google it) except there's an extra. Let's make the fourth "take a nice afternoon stroll". Feel free to post your picks in the comments.
Tiffany Shepis as a stem cell researcher? Sure what the hell. The movie is called "The Frankenstein Syndrome" and will go directly to DVD, shocking, on July 5th for your viewing pleasure. To celebrate this wonderful announcement there's also a new trailer for your peepers to enjoy of the science gone terribly wrong flick. I have confidence in Shepis and her medical skills though. Everything should turn out fine.
Ian McShane could come to my house, make a number 2 on my kitchen table, pee in my ice box, and I'd still high five him. Because he was on "Deadwood" and called more people c-suckers then I'll meet in my lifetime. And now Ian has been added to the cast of "Jack the Giant Killer", a horror take on the classic kids story. I'm speaking of course about "Green Eggs and Ham".
For those of you who have been patiently awaiting the big screen version of "World War Z" I'm about to toss some sand in your underthings. Word around campus is the when and if the film actually gets made it'll carry a PG-13. Of course if you're 11 this might be great news. But now that I think of it, if you're 11 please don't Google the m/f/k thing. No one should learn the birds and the bees from a guy like me.
Old people, they so crazy. Here's a 92 year old woman in Florida who demanded a kiss form her 52 year old neighbor and wouldn't leave his house until she got one. So she left, went home and got a gun, and shot twice into his house. Adorable.
I'm not lawyer but if you asked me for a list of things not to bring to your DWI hearing, a beer would be in the top 5 for sure. But I do appreciate the balls of this New York man who did that. Of course if you're hammered you're probably going to get caught anyway so why not avoid all the questioning and just put it right out there.
Danish filmmaker Ole Bornedal is confirmed to be directing the Sam Raimi produced film "Dibbuk Box". The movie is apparently based on real life events that happened to a family who came into possession of a haunted box. I'm not sure how big the box was but one possible solution could have been to just throw it out. I'm just tossing out ideas here though.
Wait there's a remake of "The Crow" in the works? Why didn't anyone tell me about this? Time to bust out my skin tight leather pants! I hope they still fit, it's been over 15 years. Oh and Stephen Norrington, the director who was attached to it said he's left the project. But still, "The Crow" remake!
Now I'm going to address the fine people behind "The Frankenstein Syndrome" When you cast Tiffany Shepis in your movie I have some expectations of what I'm going to see. I'm not going to say what those things are but you take a look at these new stills from the film and try to guess. Here's a hint, it isn't a creepy mask covering up her face... or a creepy shirt.
Don Coscarelli, the guy who brought us "Phantasm" and "Bubba Ho-Tep", has officially been tapped to direct David Wong's "John Dies at the End". The cast right now also includes Paul Giamatti, Clancy Brown, Angus Scrimm, Chase Williamson, and Rob Mayes. I assume one of them will play someone named "John" who will most likely die at the end of the movie.
If this doesn't warm your heart I don't know what will. A 5 year old boy in Syria has become engaged to a 3 year old girl. I have no idea how or why something like that could be legal in any country, but that doesn't make it any less adorable.
1962 - President John F. Kennedy announced an air and naval blockade of Cuba, following the discovery of Soviet missile bases on the island
Did anyone other than Mark see "The Collector"? Follow up question, did anyone see it and like it? Didn't think so. Well news today that there's going to be a "Collector 3D" and it's going to be in.. well, 3D. You probably guessed that from the title though.
"She Wolf Rising" is not going to be a good movie but here's some pictures of Tiffany Shepis who stars in it rolling around. There's really not much news here but I think you'll appreciate it nonetheless. So uh, how's your week going? Some weather we're having huh?
So that whole unrated thing kind of backfired didn't it? Not to be outdone by Canada, "Hatchet II" has now been pulled from US theaters. But man those 2 days that it was showing sure were special weren't they? Did anyone get to see it? Tell me what it's like to love.
Take a look at this new picture from "Scream 4" and try to tell me you don't feel a little bad for Ghostface. It's him and a bunch of his other Ghostface friends riding a bus to school. But look, they're all sitting alone, none of them are friends. My heart is breaking.
Mark it on your calendars folks, today PETA did something I may actually agree with. A California restaurant has pulled the "Dancing Shrimp" off of their menu after complaints from the animal rights group. What's the dancing shrimp your might ask? Well it's a live prawn that has it's shell ripped off and then you get to squeeze lemon on it and watch it "dance" AKA jump in ungodly pain until it dies. Adorable.

I'm not so sure I'm prepared to say this Christmas themed horror film "12-24" looks "good", but the people behind it who emailed me the link the other day must have known that Yuletide themed horror films are one of my guilty pleasures.
When you find yourself sifting through stacks of low budget independent features, you tend to find some common similarities throughout. A spark of a good idea, a lot of ambition, and a healthy love of the genre. Typically, these movies tend to not extend very far past these tenants; and are quickly hampered by low budget, lack of experience and sub par acting. At first glance, "Dark Reel" appears to be one of those films.
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".

FRANKFURT, Germany -- Stefan Reisinger scored his third goal in three games as Fortuna Duesseldorf beat 10-man Eintracht Frankfurt 4-0 in a showdown between two promoted Bundesliga clubs on Friday.
Eintracht forward Karim Matmour was sent off in the 34th minute after a second yellow card, given for a professional foul. His team's downfall began four minutes later when Reisinger struck after a solo run through Frankfurt's makeshift, injury-hit defence. Matmour was back after serving a one-match suspension for another red card.
Oliver Fink doubled the lead in the 42nd with a fine shot from the edge of the area. Nando Rafael made it 3-0 in the 58th after a poor clearance by Eintracht's defence left him free at the far post. Axel Bellinghausen completed the win in the 85th.
Fortuna has won two of its last three, plus a 1-1 draw at defending champion Borussia Dortmund.
Eintracht's form has slumped after a strong start. The Frankfurt club lost a second straight match and has only one win in its last seven games. But it will remain in fifth place. Fortuna is 13th ahead of the weekend matches.
"I knew that it would be difficult for us because we were missing several players. Our defence never played in this line-up before," said coach Armin Veh, who has a tense relationship with the Duesseldorf club.
Veh called Matmour's dismissal unjustified. "It decided the match," Veh said.
Eintracht's defence included 17-year-old Marc-Oliver Kempf.
