Want for alternatives and narratives
Thank you Mr. Stonestreet for this concise eye-opener and poignant commentary.
Thank you other commenters, also, for rallying with support. However, as a 21 years-young man in the very throes of this world's attacks, I find the comments and suggestions dismally lacking. Yes, I agree there should be affirmation to young men that it is good and even *attractive* to stay pure, even to measure their sexual prowess (yes this must be addressed - young men want to be powerful in pretty well every way) in terms of restraint rather than use, and yes we should be told it is good to hold doors and sacrifice for sisters. But, there is an enraging gap there: what are we to do with our creative energies? Our sexual desires? Our desire for action? Our free time? Should we submissively dawdle around in circles trying to stay pure, and running from public place to public place trying to be more efficient servants than revolving doors? No. Young men, I think, need to have visions cast for them about good things to do. People on the forefront need to explain the beauty and adventure in books ranging from Sci-fi to History. We young men need visions cast repeatedly of SPECIFICS of how the ordinary life can be an adventure. Honestly we need a G.K. Chesterton perpetually speaking to the our hearts, and a companion like J.R.R. Tolkien wouldn't hurt. Instead we have the fairly whinny John Eldridge who shows that (pardon my crude paraphrasing - but realizing, most of us only get/take away the crude paraphrasing) men are only men if they go kill a bear instead of masturbating. We have texts such as Everyman's Battle which gives more creative examples of how the authors sought lustful pleasure than how they overcame their bad habits. Yes, I see that I am not providing these resources, but I am finding more and more how much they could help me. If I at all can represent the heart-cry of young men (though I am a Summit staffer and Hillsdale student, I am still a young man in this culture), then please work to provide better visions, ideas for playtime with others, invested companionship/mentoring, and stories of adventures in the ordinary. It is true, we should turn off the TV and pick up the Bible, but just saying that is pretty worthless. We young men need you to give us narratives, visions, and quality time with both excitement and exhortation; not so much flat reasons, pitiful self-help books, and distant rebukes.
Thank you dearly for taking the time to read through this rant.
In Christ,
Alex Graham.
War against the flesh
Thank you Mr.Stonestreet for shedding modern light on this problem that has existed since time's begin. One thing that hit me was you saying, "while all right in moderation, video games are not the true outlet for the male desire to be heroic and fight for a worthy cause." You're right men have been sucked into the gaming world leaving behind a world that desperately needs leaders and contributors to fight for causes such as proclaiming the gospel, providing relief for the poor, increasing education in low achieving neighborhoods, and so on. But temptation is overpowering men and as men in the church we should be on our knees pleading with God to help us instruct this generation to love God and to do His will. 1st John 3:15-16 tells us of the sins common to man and verse 17 tells us of the result of those who obey sin verses those who heed Gods commands by doing His will. Please let us continue to instruct the younger men with grace and gentleness but also firm rebuke as a loving father, brother, or friend.
This is so true, and very frightening. I am not sure that there is an answer for this epidemic. Not only are boys and young men filling their minds with this stuff, and causing damage, but, more and more are being created and advertised in mainstream media. Unfortunately, even though the church must be the leader in this fight, there is so much less interest in church these days that it is hard to imagine people listening to what church people have to say.
Well Said...
My ears perked up when I heard this on the radio and what he said is absolutely true and well stated. I think it is easy for people to get riled up about this topic when it is brought up but recognizing the problem is one thing and knowing how to work with men who are struggling in this area is another. I say this from personal experience. I was addicted to Pornography for over 6 years as a young man and I was a believer. Even when I sought help most of what people did was not helpful. People in the church take too simple an approach to this problem often giving trite answers rather than committing to long term dialog or pointing them to someone who can. Ultimately God led me to an organization that knew what they were doing. It is called Pure Heart Ministries based out of Portland, OR. The men who run this organization were sex addicts themselves and God led them out of their problem and they are teaching young men what to do based on God's word as it related to their personal experience. They are also they are professional counselors. It took me two years of consistently addressing this in accountability and weekly lessons to be free and my life was turned 180 degrees around. I have found as I have been counseling guys that once I teach them the principles I have learned that it bleeds over into the issue of all the other fake ways they are satisfying their God given desires. P.S. Masturbation is the power source for much of this problem. Once this is taken care of, which is not easy, then it becomes far easier to solve the porn issue. What is hard is that fathers are either absent from their sons or they see so many problems in their son's and then try to solve all of them at once. The young man is left with so much knowledge he doesn't know what to do. The father should take one truth a week and go over it with his son. He should teach it with authority but keep the time short and leave lots of space for the son to speak. The son may have very important things to say.
Thanks, Erik
Making Men
This is a terrific article. Thank you for highlighting the need to rescue the current generation of young men from counterfeit pleasures.
A book I found helpful to that end is "Man Made: Reclaiming the Passage from Boy to Man" (De Man, Pearson, Arendt). It's a quick read written by guys in the thick of raising their sons. Each chapter unpacks a stage of manhood (the authors present five) through stories from their lives. Then they present practical ideas for crafting experiences that foster authentic manhood in boys from age five to adulthood.
Appreciate your on-going effort to assist us with bringing a Biblical Worldview to our culture.
Boys schools
The Christian world might do good to rethink high school. Our public schools have become fountains for an anti-biblical world view. We also need to think whether coed schools are best for our children. An amazingly disproportionate number of leaders come out of single-sex schools. Chuck Colson himself went to a Boys school and I believe Brown was still a men's college at the time he graduated. There is much about single-sex schools that develop leaders and we need more leaders in the Church!
I believe that everything that we watch on television we are influenced by... I say turn off the tv, put down the video game and lets pick up the word of God... the believers need to come together...
Someone at work was having a baby. They asked me what advice I would give them. I thought for a moment, then said "You know that I want you to raise your child in a Biblical fashion, so that goes without saying. My advice-Keep your kids away from all forms of electronic media for as long as you can"
I hope you stand strong also. That's what we've been calling Breaking the Spiral of Silence around here. It won't be done by any formula, but by courage.
Rooting for you,
Heroic Thoughts
A very brief mentioning was made on your show today, in which the speaker stated that young men today aren't feeling the drive to be heroic, or to do things that have meaning. I feel like you need to realize something, fellow Christians and concerned citizens; This is a result of a lot of things. A lot of things you have been warned about. Somebody today also says "I don't know how we didn't see this coming"; I wonder how you didn't see it, also.
So many of my friends are literally addicted to evil. The music, the games, the TV, the drugs, the porn, the strip clubs, its crazy. And there's nothing i can do but sit back, and calmly state to my friends that its "Their choice" and I really can't interfere past that without them turning violent. Thanks to the Music, the TV, The drugs, etc.
Most of the youth today thinks its cool to be a "thug" because the media completely misrepresents thugs, showing them as being rich and luxurious. "Pimp.". After the kids are hooked on the idea that /that/ is the only way to acquire those things; they show them that the only way to be a thug is by being a loner, stealing, lying, cheating, and killing. "And when I go to hell, Lord knows I'm gonna fry."
Those are ACTUAL lyrics from a song. Messed up, right?
I wanted to let you know who I am, and what I'm doing, friends. My name is Daniel Hinkofer, M, 19. I have undergone a severe and miraculous recovery from the aforementioned afflictions, and I now feel like I stand alone against a tidal wave; as I alienated all of my christian friends a long time ago; to enter the "Thug Life". Getting hit by a semi really put things in perspective.
That right there should say something in and of itself; to snap me out of the trance most kids are in today; it didn't just take a slap in the face from God. No. It took a semi. It's time to literally stand up for whats right now. Todays radio broadcast was incredible. It tackled something most people out there would hate to hear; which means you were doing something right. Keep it up. Here soon, you should stand up and let EVERYBODY know/remember what a "thug" and a "gangster" actually are, and actually do.
Remind people its possible to live a comfortable life in God. Though it isn't /about/ the money, money could still be a blessing God provides. COULD. Not WILL. It is also important people understand that.
I want to stand before this tidal wave. I want it to hit me full force, pass me by, and still be standing in the same place I was when it hit. God is all that makes this even metaphorically possible; but I have the utmost faith that it will work out in the seen world, as well.
Saving Boys
Great commentary John, and good insight to a very important need. I can recommend the book Wild At Heart by John Eldridge as a fine resource in this area. And not for the feint at heart, I Am Charlotte Simmons by Tom Wolfe. It is pretty hard hitting, but an honest look at college life and the very damaging effects of an undiciplined, unrestrained lifestyle on both boys and girls. I had the "pleasure" of having my next door neighbor rent his house to a major university in Los Angeles as an off campus frat house for one semester. I was stunned at the base hedonism and absolute disregard for common decency and public law displayed by these boys and girls. The only thing they really seemed to care about was getting drunk or high and being reckless. And there was no one there to control them. Even LAPD got tired of coming to the same address every weekend, knowing there was very little they could do (without a warrant) other than to tell them (again) to quiet down. And the university police were equally as ineffective at control. It was quite an eye opening experience, one I don't recommend to anyone. (I think it was the $1700.00 light bill for the first month that finally got the landlord's attention....the property damage to the inside of his house was a second heart stopper....it was BAD.) The church needs to lead the way back to dicipline and delayed gratification as the only truely satisfying lifestyle.
Carry on, John, and all of you at Colson Center. You are all doing a wonderful job.

Saving Boys
Thanks for the courageous commentary, John! As a Centurion graduate and a Pasotr of a 200+ family integrated Church of mostly homeschoolers, this topic comes up often. As a parent, we must talk to and know our sons. We must bring up this topic in private or as a part of family worship for the whole family. As a Pastor, this topic cannot escape our preaching. I recently spoke at a conservative Christian homeschool graduation and used the Birkenhead diaster (women and children first) as an example of godly manhood to challenge the graduates. This is a quote from that speech: "You see, the culture needs the firm moral foundation that you have been given. That foundation that tells boys that it is good to be a boy, it is good to be a man, it is good to be courageous, it is good to be a hero, it is good to sacrifice for his sister, it is good to hold the door for his mother, it is good to stay pure until marriage. Young men, you have been given this firm foundation. So, don't follow the culture, lead the culture and reform it in the name of Jesus Christ!
And on this note of marriage, let me just say that I recognize that you may not get married, but until God puts that unique call upon your heart, I'd plan on it as it appears that God calls most people to marriage. Despite that fact, relationships between young men and young women are among the most vile aspects of our culture. So, I want to encourage you that as you go out as kingdom builders with your Christian worldview and moral foundation, keep your eyes open for godly women and encourage them in their godliness, treat them with respect and honor. If you find a particular young lady with whom God is knitting your hearts together, then get her father's permission to take her out, setup boundaries for alone time to demonstrate that you respect her enough to stay pure until your wedding, work hard at your vocation to support her and your home – even if it is to keep you in your double-wide…and then as a key strategy to grow the kingdom of God on this earth, have a ton of kids as the Lord leads and blesses :~)'.
Keep up the good work, John! Laboring with you in the Lord...

Brian Klugman and Lee Sternthal's "The Words" is one-third of a good movie. Although it does not completely add up, it's not without its merits.
The picture is a multiple character story split into three parts that tells the tale of struggling author Rory Jansen (Bradley Cooper), who discovers an anonymous literary masterpiece tucked into a tote bag in a thrift shop and decides to publish the work under his name. Accolades follow.
But we find out that this story is a section of a novel by acclaimed author Clay Hammond (Dennis Quaid), who is taking part in a reading in front of an audience.
In the story within the story, Jansen is confronted by a feeble elderly man (Jeremy Irons), who claims the long-lost manuscript as his own. He tells Jansen of how he came to write the novel after serving in France during World War II, where he met a young woman and a tragic love affair ensued.
The best sequences in the film belong to scene stealer Irons as he narrates his story to Cooper and the accompanying flashbacks, which carry enough weight to move the picture along.
It's when we're faced with Jansen's conundrum and Hammond's story that the film wobbles. There are some twists and turns in the story that I'm not sure completely hold up under close scrutiny.
In fact, Hammond's story could have been dropped altogether and the film might have been the better for it. As it stands, "The Words" is only intermittently compelling.
"Bachelorette" is even less focused. The film stars Kirsten Dunst, Lizzy Caplan and Isla Fisher as three bitter friends who reunite 13 years after their high school graduation to act as bridesmaids for Becky (Rebel Wilson, of "Bridesmaids"), who is getting married.
Becky, who was known as "Pig Face" in high school, is slightly overweight and her husband is wealthy, good looking Dale (Hayes MacArthur), whom Regan (Dunst), Gena (Caplan) and Katie (Fisher) believe is too good for their pal.
"Bachelorette" is another in a recent series of comedies that appear to set out to prove that women can be just as crude as the men in "The Hangover" and its ilk.
But "Bridesmaids" this is not. While that film's outrageous antics were coupled with genuine sweetness and some flawed, but ultimately lovable, characters, "Bachelorette" is acidic and its trio petty and shallow.
The couplings between the three bridesmaids and the groomsmen (Adam Scott, James Marsden and Kyle Bornheimer) come off as obligatory and most of the film's attempts at humor leave a bitter taste in the mouth.
And while "Bridesmaids" explored female friendship and Kristen Wiig's character's romantic travails, "Bachelorette" fails to provide a raison d'être. None of its leads have become better people - or even interesting characters - during the course of its acerbic 90 minutes. The cast is made up of talented people who deserve better.
"The Words" is playing at Midway Theater on Queens Boulevard in Forest Hills. "Bachelorette" is screening at AMC Loews Roosevelt Field 8 in Garden City.

- Dinnner With A ViewWhenDoWeEatDined on 9/19/2014The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Since we got a bit lost in finding the place, we were late for our 8 o'clock seating, but there was no problem at all. We were seated at a table right next to the window with a view of the harbor. I think it would be close to impossible to choose anything less than stellar from the menu, since everyone at our table was incredibly pleased with their choice. Can't recommend Cafe Del Rey highly enough. A true gem.Special Features:
- Marina Del Rey FavoriteSteveDined on 9/19/2014This was my first visit to Cafe Del Rey and I enjoyed it very much.

- Thinking of eating here? Don't.OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/30/2014Our waiter recommended two mains - the scallops and wagyu beef which we ordered with excitement. When the plates came, they were quite beautiful to look at, but that was about it. Remember folks, looks can be deceiving. The scallops and sausage with fig were cooked nicely, but somewhat bland. The best part of that plate was the handmade sausage which was a main component, but the piece they provided was the size of a thumb. Whatever the beef was that they served, it was NOT wagyu beef. It was a large end cut of something very tough. We are from cattle country and I'll tell you, what we paid for was neither delicate in texture nor melting in the mouth. Last effort - dessert was taken off our bill because it was inedible.
- Great place to celebrate!KRC1Dined on 8/30/2014Excellent service and very good food! Love this place!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BigGVIPDined on 8/30/2014As they say, the food is inversely proportional to the view, and this place proves it. Great view, mediocre food, high price points. Service was very good, however. Avoid the octopus (the chef's pick) - rubbery, tasteless.Special Features:

- It's been better....FineDiner101Dined on 8/16/2014Having been here before, it was disappointing. While we were waiting for our table, we went to the bar for a drink. My dates drink had so much ice in it that it was watery and completely sub-standard. I mentioned it to the server and no offer to replace it or anything. We moved into the dining room as our table was ready. Our server seemed disinterested, the food seemed bland that night. They were having an off night. I will give them one more try, but only one.

The portions were somewhat small but filling none-the-less. I had the restaurants version of Paella with cous-cous instead of rice (I like rice better) and it was delicious.

This is the first part of the lecture given by Astronomer Royal Martin Rees at Stephen Hawking's birthday symposium.
Some of the things I overheard at Stephen Hawking's 70th birthday conference did make me wonder whether I hadn't got the wrong building and stumbled in on a sci-fi convention. "The state of the multiverse". "The Universe is simple but strange". "The future for intelligent life is potentially infinite". And — excuse me — "the Big Bang was just the decay of our parent vacuum"?!
This is the second part of the lecture given by Astronomer Royal Martin Rees at Stephen Hawking's birthday symposium.
Most of us think that we have the capacity to act freely. Our sense of morality, our legal system, our whole culture is based on the idea that there is such a thing as free will. It's embarrassing then that classical physics seems to tell a different story. And what does quantum theory have to say about free will?
A traditional view of science holds that every system — including ourselves — is no more than the sum of its parts. To understand it, all you have to do is take it apart and see what's happening to the smallest constituents. But the mathematician and cosmologist George Ellis disagrees. He believes that complexity can arise from simple components and physical effects can have non-physical causes, opening a door for our free will to make a difference in a physical world.
Many risks we take don't kill us straight away: think of all the lifestyle frailties we get warned about, such as smoking, drinking, eating badly, not exercising and so on. The microlife aims to make all these chronic risks comparable by showing how much life we lose on average when we're exposed to them.

Epitaph at the Foot of the Stone
Like you, I was born underwater.
(I lied: there was never a stone.)
Like you, I was born but that's not the half of it:
I lived. Lord, I lived. Like a cancer, I crept
sideways. Like a scorpion, I lied. I lived
the way a problem lives, openly, so much
earth wanted me closed. Don't you know the dead
are not easy? Don't you know they crave?
I stepped out of the water (I was made doing this) slick-
skinned, fluent, a character: my eyes twice
haunted, my humor, my voice—and can't you hear
shackles running the length of my voice? I was born
in a minute, in a panic, on a whim. A mistake,
I mean. A choice between this world and a body,
pretty fault where a heart should be.
for Camille Rankine

The Glenlivet Hunters' Club opens in Moscow
The new Glenlivet Hunters' Club was officially unveiled during a presentation that took place on 26 June at the "Russian Seasons" restaurant in Moscow. This new hunter's club format will cater to men's two greatest passions – hunting and delightful Scottish single malt whisky. Alexander Gafin - a well-known philanthropist, collector, a man of letters and head of the Executive Committee of the A.S. Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts Board of Directors became the club's President. The launch of The Glenlivet Hunters' Club will enable The Glenlivet brand to convey to the Russian public its history and values as well as explain the unique place that this whisky holds in Scotland – over two centuries ago the King of England George IV once and for all brought The Glenlivet and the world of hunting together having declared both the exclusive privilege of the king. The Glenlivet Hunters' Club – is not just a place for true lovers of hunting and whisky connoisseurs – club membership offers a number of unique privileges such as the right to take part in private dinners at the club or presentations of weapons from the world's best makers of fine arms. Members will also be able to take part in club shooting competitions, which will be launched around next spring and summer. Glenlivet Hunters' Club's partner – the Aresenal store offers personal privileged discounts for club members who wish to purchase their own hunting gear.
BRICS Business Magazine at the BRICS Summit
BRICS Business Magazine will be represented at the summit of the BRICS heads of state, which will be held in the Brazilian city of Fortaleza on July 15-16. A "Latin American edition" of the magazine is being prepared especially for the event. It will feature a discussion with President of Mexico Enrique Peña Nieto, an interview with famous Peruvian writer and Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa, and other materials that focus on the region.
The new issue of the magazine will be distributed at major international economic forums in the summer and early fall of 2014.
BRICS Business Magazine caters to world opinion leaders, heads of corporations, investors, economists, and political scientists. The magazine is published in two language versions – English and Russian. Its content corresponds to the motto "Bridging Communities. Guiding Investors. Leading Nations."
BOLSHOI Sport Surpasses One Million Readers
According to a study by TNS Russia, the semiannual readership of BOLSHOI Sport magazine has exceeded one million people, reaching 1,062,100 readers. This is a 10% growth over the previous reporting period. The same indicator also showed a positive trend in Moscow, demonstrating an increase of 8.6 percent (to 281,800 people).
The number of readers of one issue of BOLSHOI Sport for the period from December 2013 to April 2014 across the country increased by 8.7 percent, reaching 588,300 people.
The BOLSHOI Sport magazine has been published in Russia since late 2005. In the spring of 2013, Alexei Nemov was appointed the Editor-in-Chief of the publication.
Alexander Gafin to Head Executive Committee of The Pushkin Museum Board of Trustees
Alexander Gafin, Editor-in-Chief of WATCH Russia became the Chairman of the Executive Committee of The Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts Board of Trustees. "The Pushkin Museum in Moscow with its magnificent collections and unique science expert team is rightfully part of the world museum elite. Its authority is a product of decades under the leadership of outstanding fine art historian Irina Antonova. Throughout its history the museum had numerous legendary exhibitions and unique projects that contributed to the convergence of countries, peoples, and cultures, while paving the way for politicians and diplomats. Working on the Board of Trustees of the museum is a great honor and responsibility. My main long-term objective in this new role is to make sure that the best opportunities are available for further development of the museum, strengthening its position in the museum community and the cultural heritage of the world," said Alexander Gafin upon his appointment. The Board is a collegial body of The Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts formed to support and develop the museum. It includes such well-known figures of Russian culture and business as Minister of Culture Vladimir Medinsky, long-time head of The Pushkin Museum Irina Antonova, the current Director of the Museum Marina Loshak, General Manager of Channel One Konstantin Ernst, co-founder of the Mikhail Prokhorov Foundation Irina Prokhorova, heads of Novatek, Rostelecom, Gazprombank, and Vnesheconombank.
Sochi-Moscow-Rio Gala Reception
Alexei Nemov, Editor-in-Chief of BOLSHOI Sport, four-time Olympic champion, and member of the Laureus World Sports Academy, once again invited his friends – famous Russian and international athletes, as well as members of the athletic, political, and business establishment – to a gala reception "Sochi-Moscow-Rio" held on May 20 at the Vetoshny Art Center. The event was a logical extension of the Friends of Big Sports reception, which Alexei Nemov and the BOLSHOI Sport magazine hosted last October, on the eve of the Sochi Olympic Games. The main idea behind "Sochi-Moscow-Rio" was to convey the mood of the Winter Olympic Games winners to those athletes going to the Summer Olympic Games, who have already begun preparing for the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games to be held in 2016. Six months ago in October 2013, during the first event in the Friends of Big Sports series held on the eve of the Sochi Olympics, the hosts Alexei Nemov and Elena Hanga were wishing the Russian Olympians victory in Sochi. And Russia's triumph at the Olympics surpassed all expectations: the 22nd Winter Olympic Games and Paralympic Games were the most successful in Russia's history. But now, it's time to prepare for new challenges: the Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro will be held in 2016, and preparations for them have already entered a climactic stage. The "Sochi-Moscow-Rio" event format became a symbolic metaphor for this new stage, when the BOLSHOI Sports honorary awards were handed to the winners of the Sochi Olympics by those athletes who will represent their country in Rio.

- Lactobacillus' which may eliminate harmful bacteria that can cause digestive discomfort.
- Bifiodobacterium' which ensures that your immune system is strengthened' regulates gut pH' and promotes effective digestion.
- Amylase' which converts starch into sugar.
- Bromelain' which is responsible for the elimination of fats and faster absorption of antibiotics in the body.
- Lactase' which breaks down milk sugar (those who are lactose-intolerant tend to have naturally low levels of lactase).
- Protease' which breaks down proteins.
- Cellulase' which breaks down cellulose (plant fibers).
Your growth and development is enhanced by the proper digestion and absorption of nutrients. When you have indigestion' it can have a negative impact on your health beyond immediate discomfort. This is because there's no detoxification or elimination of toxic waste' nor are important nutrients in the foods you eat extracted for your body to absorb. To prevent this' you need to have sufficient levels of relevant enzymes' as well as intestinal flora. Enzymes will catalyze the breakdown of food' products while intestinal flora will promote good digestion by decreasing the presence of disease-causing bacteria while controlling growth in the intestines and fermentation of unused energy compounds.
When your body is deficient in both enzymes and flora' you tend to be more susceptible to infections and constipation. Most of the time' you can eat certain foods that are good sources for the deficient enzymes. However' taking a nutritional supplement is another convenient option.
DaVinci Labs' Mega Probiotic ND with Digestive Enzymes is a chewable vegetarian supplement that enhances the functioning of the digestive tract and the absorption of nutrients in your body. Each tablet has a pleasant orange taste' and doesn't have to be swallowed. Mega Probiotic ND is rich in enzymes that support food digestion' along with probiotics that help promote balance in the gut. Mega Probiotic ND with Digestive Enzymes contains several strains of healthy probiotic bacteria' such as:
This is in addition to the following essential enzymes:
One bottle of Mega Probiotic ND with Digestive Enzymes by DaVinci Labs contains 90 chewable tablets' which should last you up for to three months if taken at the recommended dosage of three capsules daily.
DaVinci Laboratories has been a leader in nutritional research and product development for decades. They are dedicated to providing products with superior manufacturing quality and natural ingredients.

Here We Come
But the Wii was a fad, in retrospect.
But the Wii was a fad, in retrospect.
The Wii pushed Microsoft and Sony into wedging new interaction models into their gaming systems. The Wii still appeals to millions of non-gamers. Just check out your local Craigslist for the Wii. Considering its low-powered hardware, low resistance to wear and poor title choice, the resale value for Wiis (Wii?) and peripherals is rather high.
What's more is that this story should be familiar. That description one paragraph up describes Apple's first iPhone — just change the competitors and replace 'title' with 'app'. The problem isn't the Wii's viability, its the Wii U's (apparently, anyway — I've not played one). If Nintendo can survive to the next system and innovate the way we can interact with machines, AGAIN — enormous, colossal, massive 'if's — they'll more than survive. (Whether or not they invent motion gaming is as relevant as whether Apple invented touchscreens.)
Which is all to say I think Marco Arment is absolutely wrong about the historical Wii. Non-joystick based platform gaming is not only viable, people clamor for it. Maybe just not us nerds. I'm not saying that platform won't be iOS in the future. I'm not saying iOS doesn't have inherent advantages. But many people want to move around, get healthy, blast things, etc. without mastering a controller with 8 buttons and two joysticks. And the Wii was killer at performing that task. (And they might see advantages in buying a separate device to perform that task.)
This one sentence really detracts from an otherwise solid position that Mr. Arment takes on Nintendo's plight.

Cogliano Signs. Wow
According to Real Kyper, the Ducks have signed Andrew Cogliano. Three year deal according to the tweet, $2.1M. $2.35M and $2.67M. I don't know anyone who felt it would be a $2.39M cap hit, but good for Cogs and best of luck in the future.
The Oilers and their fans suffered through the growing pains. The Ducks stand to reap the benefits of all that learning on the job, and are paying Cogliano well to fill a role in their top 9.
It's a pretty nice landing for the former first rounder.
As an aside, if Steve Tambellini had signed this contract, I suspect Oiler Nation would be rushing to the internet to express their displeasure at the signing. Agreed?

When Everson Griffen was an innocent student at USC, Pete Carroll decided to play an innocent April Fool's joke on his big defensive end. Carroll had a prank set up that involved police officers interrupting a team meeting and claiming they had video of Griffen "physically assaulting a freshman." The officers fake arrested him, but the video turned out to be footage of Griffen pancaking a freshman offensive lineman. Check it out:
Years later, Griffen would go on to be arrested twice in one week and Tasered for grabbing an officer's nuts. Pete Carroll: psychic who could see the future, or voodoo specialist who put a hex on his player? I'll let you be the judge of that one.Google+

JEFFERSONVILLE, IN (WAVE) - A southern Indiana man convicted of murdering his estranged wife has been sentenced to the maximum amount of time possible behind bars.
A Clark Circuit judge gave Edward "Dale" Bagshaw, 47, 65 years in prison for stabbing Kelly Bagshaw to death.
On November 13, 2011, Kelly Bagshaw, 30, was stabbed 57 times in the parking lot of Dale Bagshaw's apartment in the 1500 block of E. 10th Street in Jeffersonville. She had gone to the apartment to pick up the couple's two children, who were inside the apartment at the time.
During the trial, Dale Bagshaw's defense team had pushed for a manslaughter conviction, but in January 2013, a Clark County jury returned the guilty verdict on the murder charge after just 90 minutes of deliberation.
Before being sentenced Bagshaw made a statement in which he said, "I would just like to say I'm sorry."
Bagshaw said he was sorry for how it has affected everybody including his family and his children. After the sentencing, Bagshaw put out a simple message to his children saying, "I love you."
"It's never going to be over for those kids," said Margaret Gaines, Kelly Bagshaw's aunt.
At the sentencing hearing, Kelly's sister said she forgives Bagshaw because she cannot hate him while caring for his children.
Five years of the sentence was suspended. If Bagshaw has to serve out his full sentence, he will be 107 years old upon release.
"There are no winners here," said Perry McCall, Bagshaw's defense attorney, "it's a lose, lose, lose all the way around."
McCall said he will file an appeal.

Atlanta police located a child and his caretaker who had been missing for more than a week.Authorities say that Laquanda Burley left her 23-month-old son, Malachi, with a woman she knew only as "Sylvia" at the Edgewood/Candler Park MARTA station on Nov. 26. According to the police report, Burley told investigators that she was overwhelmed and thought the time apart would be beneficial. The family started worrying when they couldn't get in touch with Sylvia. Malachi, family members say, has seizures and needs medication.Police eventually identified the woman as 26-year-old Sylvia Franklin and asked for the public's help in locating the pair.Finally, authorities reported that the boy was located around 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Authorities did not provide any details as to where the toddler was located.
The boy's mother was questioned by police and released. She then went to check on her son at the hospital, where he was being checked as a precaution. "I'm going to hug him tight until I can't hug him no more and kiss him," Burley told FOX 5's Kaitlyn Pratt.The incident remains under investigation. It is not known if any charges will be filed.

Benitez is new Chelsea manager
®Copyright MediaCorp
In football,
Chelsea have appointed former Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez as interim manager until the end of the season.
The Blues were hammered 3-nil by Juventus in the Champions League yesterday morning and that led to the sacking of manager, Roberto Di Matteo.
The Italian who'd signed a 2-year deal in June, was responsible in leading Chelsea to the FA Cup trophy and Champions League title last season.
Meanwhile, 52 year old Benitez who was overlooked in March as a potential candidate to replace Andre Villas Boas is now with the Blues on a short-term appointment.
Benitez is Chelsea's 9th manager since Roman Abramovic took over in 2003.
But the Russian billionaire's ideal choice for the role of manager at Chelsea is Pep Guardiola.
The former Barcelona manager thou is presently on a year-long sabbatical in New York and will only make up his mind regarding his future, in about 3 months time.
In regional football news,
Our Singapore Lions depart today for Kuala Lumpur ahead of this Sunday's Suzuki Cup opening clash against Malaysia.
An estimated 80,000 home fans along with 500 Singapore supporters are expected to be on hand at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium for the battle between the causeway rivals.
And following that match, the Republic will meet Indonesia and Laos in the remaining Group B matches.
Our Singapore Lions are 3-time winners of this tournament.
And with this possibly being national coach Raddy Avramovic's final assignment, the players are hoping to end the tournament on a high.
Prime Minister Najib Razak paid a visit to the Malaysian national team while they were training yesterday.
And the 59 year old wished the Tigers the best of luck in defending the Suzuki Cup.
With the government having offered $26,000 Sing dollars to each player and coaching staff 2 years ago, the team has again been promised more incentives, should they retain the Cup.

Academy to Sing the Praises of Johnny Mercer
Beverly Hills, CA (October 27, 2009) — The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will celebrate the musical legacy of songwriter Johnny Mercer with a gala centennial tribute featuring film clips of many of his timeless classics, and personal performances and appearances by friends and colleagues, on Thursday, November 5, at 8 p.m. at the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills. Performances by program host Michael Feinstein and Monica Mancini (daughter of Mercer's longtime friend, Henry Mancini) will bring some of Mercer's most beloved songs to life on the Academy's stage. This event is sold-out, but standby tickets may become available.
Oscar®-winning songwriter-composer Alan Bergman, Oscar-nominated songwriter Arthur Hamilton, actresses Rose Marie and Jane Russell, and Mancini's widow, Ginny, also will participate in the event.
Born in Savannah, Georgia, on November 18, 1909, Johnny Mercer began writing songs at the age of 15, and was ultimately credited with writing more than 1,700. His Oscar-winning songs include On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe ("The Harvey Girls," 1946), In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening ("Here Comes the Groom," 1951), Moon River ("Breakfast at Tiffany's," 1961) and Days of Wine and Roses, from the 1962 film of the same name.
With 18 Academy Award® nominations for Best Song (and one more nomination for the song score of "Darling Lili," written in collaboration with Mancini), Mercer remains one of the cinema's most honored songwriters. Such standards as Blues in the Night, I'm Old Fashioned, That Old Black Magic and Something's Gotta Give added immeasurably to the impact of the movies in which they were performed, not to mention the good will generated by Mercer's anthem to the movie business – Hooray for Hollywood.
Though tickets to "A Centennial Tribute to Johnny Mercer" are sold out, additional tickets typically become available at the last minute due to no-shows and cancellations. There will be a standby line at the west doors of the Academy on November 5. Standby numbers will be given out at 5:30 p.m. The number of standby tickets that can be sold will be determined shortly before the event's start time.
Tickets are $5 for the general public and $3 for Academy members and students with a valid ID.
The Samuel Goldwyn Theater is located at the 8949 Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills. For more information call (310) 247-3600 or visit www.oscars.org.

In addition to the WhiteWave spinoff, which is already in process, Dean Foods also announced on Sept. 26 that it's seeking a buyer for its Morningstar division, which makes, among other things, coffee creamers for restaurants.
Adding up the value for both WhiteWave and Morningstar as well as the remaining Dean Foods business, Cramer said the company is worth at least $20 a share, a full 40% more than where it closed Thursday.
While some analysts have been bearish on Dean, given the rising price of milk, Cramer said the more important question is how much value this company can unlock by spinning off its highly valuable assets. He said it's clear that in its current form these gems are lost within the larger company.
Momentum Stocks
For the next installment of his "annointed stocks," Cramer featured two more names he said will be hot on money managers' minds through the rest of the year: Sherwin-Williams (SHW), a stock that's up 67% for the year; and liquor giant Diageo (DEO), which is up 30% so far this year.When you're selling a home you buy paint, and when you're buying a home you buy more paint. That's why as the housing market recovers, Sherwin keeps selling more and more paint. The company last reported a 9% uptick in sales and a 13.9% increase at its stores. It continues taking market share and cutting costs, which is why Cramer said it deserves more than 19.2 times given its 16% growth rate. Of the analysts currently covering Sherwin-Williams, only three rate it a buy, with 12 holds and another three sells. Then there's Diageo, a company with a fantastic stable of brands, including seven of the top 20 liquors out there. Diageo also sports a 3% dividend and has less exposure to Europe, but more exposure to the red-hot emerging markets. Cramer said at 15.5 times earnings and a 10% growth rate, Diageo still trades for well less than its rivals Brown-Forman (BFB) and Beam (BEAM).
