San Franciscan moving to Lower Mission Hills!
Hi SD CHers!
I am moving to America's Finest City at the end of the month. I've lucked out on a fab place in lower Mission Hills. I was down there this weekend and checked out Brooklyn Girl, which I really enjoyed. Can y'all please share your favorites in my new neighborhood? I'm walking distance to India Street so if you have favorite dishes at places in the area, please let me know!
You will be a regular at Starlite Lounge. http://www.starlitesandiego.com/
Remember, you heard it here first.
re: notjustastomach
+1, and Wine Vault and Bistro.
re: Fake Name
Wherever our beloved Nom de Fake hangs his hat, prices are known to go up exponentially!
Welcome to America's Finest City..
My fave's..
Princess of Wales
Pete's Meats
Mona Lisa Deli
Wine Vault
Under Belly
Brooklyn Girl
*snif* I miss my old neighborhood. Anyway, congrats on the move. +1 on Starlite, Blue Water (some of the best seafood in town), and Wine Vault and Bistro. For beer, check out the Regal Beagle (the food is okay-ish), and the Aero Club. Lefty's Pizza isn't a bad substitute for Chicago-style pizza (though my significant other prefers Berkley Pizza), and Gelato Vero is pretty decent coffeehouse (though perhaps not "chow-worthy"). Saffron is a nice place to eat, though, it is a very Americanized version of Thai. And the chicken is addicting.
For Mexican food, skip Lucha Libre, which stopped being the fun and clever neighborhood taco shop due to a visit by one Adam Richman (damn you Man v. Food!), and go around the corner to Dos Brasas Taco Shop over on San Diego Avenue. DO NOT, however, visit Dos Brasas every day for three months to order the special breakfast burrito, or else you will gain 30 lbs. You may be tempted, as my friend Eric was, but moderation is important. Oh, and while the food at El Indio is okay, it is a tortilla factory and their tortillas are second to none in this town.
Shakespeare's Pub, drinking wise, is a bit more expensive than I'd like, but the food is pretty good. Go with English pub specialties, and you will be fine. Up the hill, Bronx Pizza is a pretty good version of a New York style pizzeria, complete with guys behind the counter who will make fun of you. Lastly, I have no idea what Rubicon Deli is like, but if its doing any business whatsoever, its doing a lot better than the last couple of restaurants in that location, so that's a plus.
do not miss Venissimo Cheese Shop on Washington. Best cheeses in the city and all the free samples you want. I've vetoed Whole Foods' cheese since I've had Venissimo and could taste the differences between the same kind of cheese between the 2 stores.
I also recommend Starlite; even though I've had some misses there, it's generally quite good. Just south of your new digs is San Diego's Little Italy, and while much of the Italian food there is mediocre to insipid, I find Bencotto very tasty - they do braised lamb shanks especially well. For classic Italian-American, red sauce and cheese drenched dishes, I like Mona Lisa; it's not a "foodie" type place, but what they do, they do very well. They also have a small grocery. Underbelly is a quirky ramen shop with good craft beer, although the beer is priced higher than average. Craft and Commerce, an affiliate of Underbelly, has good American food with some interesting twists. On Saturday mornings, the Little Italy farmers' market is among the best anywhere.
Mona Lisa at the corner of Hawthorne and India has excellent sandwiches to take away and totally authentic Italian grocery items. Outstanding pancetta and a good selection of prosciutto. Take a pass on their restaurant. Apparently the good ingredients from the grocery side can't make the trip through their kitchen to become good cooked food.
I'll try to be upbeat about SD food and dining. At least you've chosen a decent location for some basics. You'll eat well enough in the general vicinity, and beyond walking, SD traffic and parking are a breeze compared to SF's. ( We also have a car-sharing fleet of electric Car2Go's.)
Farmer's Market = Little Italy, Saturday mornings w, Hillcrest, Sunday mornings w or d
Bread = Bread & Cie, Hillcrest w
Cheese = Venissimo w
Mona Lisa = Italian grocery, good sandwiches for takeout w?
Underbelly = noodles, craft beer and wine on tap w?
Starlite = w
Craft & Commerce - brunch, cocktails, open aire w?
the better Whole Foods, with rooftop parking w or d
Tender Greens - salads, hot plate specials (near a Trader Joe's) d
Farmhouse - neighborhood bistro d
Thanks so much, everyone! I love all the recommendations! Leaving SF (and its plethora of food options) is tough, but I can't wait to start exploring! Thanks again!

Once, trip-hop's golden boy, Tricky is hit-or-miss these days. Thankfully, this year's Mixed Race is worlds better than what's preceded it and is a worthy successor to 2002's career-high Blowback. Even in his weakest moments, however, he still has killer vocal delivery, an ominous mutter identifiable a mile away that sometimes brings to mind Emperor Palpatine learning to freestyle.

What do your favourite TED talks tell you about yourself?
Having recently reviewed my list of favourite TED talks I began wondering WHY they were my favourites - and whether that said anything about ME. For sure, they are all talks from outstanding individuals, but there was more to it than that. It led me to thinking whether there was any correlation between how I see myself, and the talks that I found most enjoyable - and whether there was anything to learn from this.
My first observation was that each of my favourite speakers were principally communicating from their heart and not their head – indicated by the level of conviction with which they shared their story.
My second observation was that I perceived each talk to be profound in some way. They dealt with things that I felt I had failed at, or failed to sufficiently appreciate / act upon.
Those observations, however, are simply data points. They are an indication for action and which are of little value unless acted upon.
So, for me, what they have taught me about myself is that I value conviction and that I have no excuse in failing to move to action. It's time to make a difference…..

Apr 27 2011: Most TED Talk video that I have seen has been about innovations and architecture.
I am finding hidden admiration's for measurements and detail.
"My green school dream." has been my absolute favorite TED Talk. This gentlemen who created and changed the view of school to the children of Bali, has changed my life. Although I do not have the luxury of leaving home, yet, I try my best to impact my surroundings with my "green" thoughts.
"Adam Savage's Obsessions" is an incredible TED Talk to watch it you're a perfectionist. I am a perfectionist! I really wasn't unaware until I watched his video. After watching both TED Talks, I am committed and obsessed to contributing something life changing in the years to come.

As a 72-year-old hot rodder who grew up in Los Angeles during the adolescence of our industry, one might expect Gale Banks to be a man of old war stories and faded time slips; a guy with a garage piled high with '32 Ford parts and carbureted small-blocks. Yet when you meet the man you learn his passion is cutting-edge technologies he looks to bring to market in the near future.
The daily bread of Gale Banks Engineering has been big-block motorhomes and diesel pickups for the last two decades. But that's not Gale Banks's whole story. He's built everything from Bonneville cars to semitrucks, and road racers to Humvees. The man has a twin-turbo solution for nearly every problem.
We sat down with Gale over a series of 7:00 a.m. "Breakfast with Banks" meetings to bench race and discovered that while he's a health-conscious guy, the man knows great places to find grub. Between cups of coffee we learned about his unified theory of performance, the V8-shaped house he's been building in Yosemite, California, and how his friend Jay Leno taught him you can figure out what products young guys are going to be into by knowing what young girls are into--and helping said guys to impress said girls.
HRM] If you Google search the name "Gale Banks" you come up with more results than you get searching for "Vic Edelbrock," "Ed Iskenderian," or "Wally Parks." How come so many people know your name?
GB] I've had the opportunity to have a 55-year career with very broad reach--military since 1975--can't talk much about that. I'm a boat racer for 250- and 500-mile endurance races and we did well--won national championships; I've participated in circle-track racing, endurance tunnel-boat racing, hydroplanes with the first 426 Hemi, every type of fuel from hydrogen to hydrazine. I guess what I'm saying is that through some great friendships and business contacts. I've been very lucky, which has given me a wide focus. I got to do marine, road race, drag race, off-road race--all forms of competition in a formal matter, and I always managed to prevail. Guys like Edelbrock and Isky, who is one of my dear friends, have a more narrow focus, so maybe that's why.
HRM] What was the first car you hot rodded?
GB] A '31 Model A Ford cabriolet--with the soft top. My dad bought it for my mom for 35 bucks. It was soft green with 16-inch yellow wheels. He and I got it up to snuff for her. When she blew the head gasket, he told me to replace it. That took a year and a half. I went to Ford Obsolete in L.A. and bought a four-port Riley overhead conversion. I fit the B block with a C crank and bought an Isky cam, Jahns pistons, Wico magneto, and built my first header, which I got chromium plated. I backed it with a '39 trans, an Auburn three-finger clutch, and chopped the flywheel. Fit with two Winfield carbs, the engine went from 40 hp to 102 hp on a WWI dyno. It was quick enough to run with the inline Chevy sixes--not beat, but run with. Then I broke the Ruckstell two-speed rearend from a Model T, and it sat in the garage for a year. One day I came home and my dad had sold it to a friend. When I asked how much, he said, "What I paid for it—35 bucks." I had $125 in the head alone. So for the rest of our lives we never talked about that car again.
HRM] Where did you race as a kid?
GB] Where didn't I race? I raced on the street, and in the early '60s it was a moneymaker for me. I raced a new Ford with a 406--brand new. Raced since I was a kid with a lifelong friend Bruce Geisler. His dad owned Geisler Construction, and they built Fontana Drag City; then Bruce ran it for a while. So I raced there, and Colton, and San Fernando. I used to run a cheap 283ci '60 Biscayne at Colton airstrip. Friendship Dragstrip it was called. When we started cheating and beat somebody, they would move us up a class the next week. I also raced at Lions. Mostly we raced a lot on the street. We would go to Westchester on the westside or Gardena. And we would cruise Harvey's Broiler in Downey and the Clock Drive-In in Long Beach--which is where you found your races. I made a fair living for three years doing that--more than building engines, that's for sure.
HRM] What was the first issue of HOT ROD magazine you ever read? Do you still have it?
GB] I don't remember exactly, but I remember those Rex Burnett cut-away drawings. They were incredible. Those came to the magazine about the time I started picking it up--so whenever that was [1949 -- Ed.]. They drew me to the magazine.
HRM] What was the first engine you ever turbocharged?
GB] It was a marine engine; a big-block Chevy for some offshore racers trying superchargers, and not too successfully. Back in the day we didn't have the sophistication we do today, and we were using GMC superchargers. Some used multiple V-belts, somebody else would use a piece of chain. But going offshore and having engines change rpm suddenly when the boat went in and out of the water, the rotating mass of the supercharger loading and unloading the engine, well, the superchargers don't like that show. Ultimately, the belts would end up in the bilge. There were lots of engine durability and system durability problems. So I got approached to do a turbocharged engine. I used a lot of fabricated pieces and did a lot of it in stainless. My dyno was down so I went over to Ryan Falconer's on the westside to use his. I only wanted to pull 4,000 rpm because there were no wastegates. We did a floating match with the turbochargers. Ryan made a pull at 800 lb-ft and runs it off the scale. So we put some weights on it and do another pull and it goes off the indicator. We were all blown away. I had done a crude intercooler and my marine manifolds, and it was the beginning of the kind of deal that I really couldn't dream about making that kind of power. I would say this was 1968. Bennett Gardner took me under his wing because he was so intrigued by what I was doing--he was at GM--he had that GM look. I started doing consulting for Chevy on valve gear for jet-boat engines.

4th Gen Tex......Beware, when you start to meddle in
the affairs of the Friday night temple, you are treading
on dangerous ground. This cult is by far the largest
religious denomination in the the state of Texas.
My greatest pleasure is the viewing of the pained
expression on the fan's faces of the losing team.
The look on the faces of the Alabama fans at the
TAMU games......Priceless......
Hey, it's only a game. I wonder why so many adult
egos are tied up in a simple high school game ?

When my little one was still a newborn, we took a 2 week long trip down to Mississippi to meet her family down there. She was so tiny and squishy still, and new baby smelled and all. :)
In these pictures, I believe it's the first time she met her paternal grandmother and she's being held. :) Isn't it so special to meet a new born family member? :) Her Nana is sweet as can be and she is one of the best cooks, she even makes me nut free goodies sometimes (I'm allergic) if she knows I'm coming over. Mmm Mmm. :)
The papers I used were a mix of Cloud9 and I think My Minds Eye. The little tags embellies are from SEI. :)
I did have sketch inspiration, but I was so bad about keeping track of the sketch sites last year I lost the sketch author. :( If you recognize the sketch, let me know.
Have a sweet day! :)

W8 not recognising HDMI tv connection

Before we upgraded to Windows 8 had no problems running our HP Pavilion dv6 laptop (on Windows 7) through our Sony TV (HDMI connection) using a HDMI cable. It is not working now we have upgraded to W8? Thought it maybe that I need to download a new driver? Any suggestions...

Invites and Costumes
Let your guests know ahead of time "who" they will be at the party and request that they stay in character for at least the first hour of the party.
Choose a few brave souls to be "outlaws". Buy them water guns and request that they stage a wild and crazy "shoot out" soon after the party begins.
Games and Activities
Younger cowboys and cowgirls could spend some time making their own vests from grocery sacks. Before the party, cut a hole in each side of the sack for the armholes.
At the party, allow each child to "fringe" the bottom of their vest (using scissors cut 2"-4" vertical strips). Provide lots of markers and crayons so each child can individualize their vest.
More Costume Ideas
Have sheriff badges available for them to proudly pin on and, of course, each guest needs their own cowboy hat and bandana.
More Games and Activities
Because everyone is so "hairy" from spending weeks herdin' cattle allow everyone the opportunity to shave in the shaving relay.
Divide into 2 teams and have each team member choose a partner. Set up one chair with a bottle of shaving cream, a towel, and a plastic knife placed next to it for each team.
The teams line up about 20 feet from the chair. At the shout of go, two people from each team run down to the chair where one person is "shaved" by the "barber".
The "barber" spreads shaving cream on the other persons "beard". The "barber" then uses the plastic knife to shave his or her friend, using the towel to wipe the knife between strokes.
When they are done, the next two run to the chair and repeat the process. Whichever team is clean-shaven first wins!
Party Eats
Barbeque good old-fashioned hamburgers. Serve with chips and baked beans. Try my sisters delicious recipe. Yum!
Nancy's Baked Beans
- 48 oz. canned pork and beans
- 1/2 cup catsup
- 3 Tbsp. mustard
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 lb. lean ground beef
- 1/2 chopped onion
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. pepper
- 1/2 tsp. celery salt
- 1 1/2 tsp. chili powder
- 1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
Remove pork from can of pork and beans. Heat together beans, catsup, mustard and brown sugar. Fry together remaining ingredients.
Drain excess fat. Mix beans and hamburger together. Bake, covered, at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Remove cover and bake at 300 degrees for 30 additional minutes.
I have also cooked this in a crock pot on low for 2 hours and it is just as delicious. Using the crock pot allows you to leave the home if you need to for any last minute party errands.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - An official representing charter schools in Texas says that a state ban on funding buildings and other facilities means that those schools must divert money away from students.
Denise Pierce, the general counsel for the Texas Charter Schools Association, testified Monday in a lawsuit that more than 600 school districts brought against the state. School officials say lawmakers did not provide sufficient funding for public schools.
Charter schools joined the lawsuit and complain that they only receive per-student funding. That means the schools must spend money out of their education program for facilities. Public school districts can raise money through bond propositions and some state support.
Attorneys for the state pointed out that charter schools have more flexibility than public schools and lawmakers expect them to be more efficient.

A very disappointing production-- I expected more from the team that created URINETOWN on Broadway..
The 1st scene looks promising - the story opens with a good song..
but the on going joke with the story soon falls flat -- and the 90 minutes
seems long and drawn out.. even with a one act - people were walking out after 30 minutes into the production,,
- Great set and some good songs - but not enuf to recommend this

Quotes & Highlights
"A bitingly funny satire by one of our theater's most inventive playwrights."_ -The New York Times_
"As pure comedy, Rich and Famous is like a funhouse maze." _-Newsweek_
Playwright Bing Ringling yearns to savor the sweet taste of celebrity, and he's hoping play number 844 will be his lucky break. But on opening night, Bing slips into a nightmarish phantasmagoria that shows him just how wrong things can go. From the ingenious mind of John Guare, who brought Six Degrees of Separation and The House of Blue Leaves to the American stage, Rich and Famous springs to life with twisted humor, rapid-fire dialogue, and outrageous songs scribed by Guare himself.
John Rando (A.C.T.'s Urinetown, The Musical and Broadway's The Wedding Singer) directs this newly revised, delicious dark comedy in its first major revival since its 1976 New York debut. Brooks Ashmanskas, who was nominated for a 2007 Tony Award for Martin Short: Fame Becomes Me and has appeared in The Producers and Gypsy_, takes on the role of Bing, starring alongside Mary Birdsong (_Reno 911! on Comedy Central, Hairspray on Broadway), Stephen DeRosa (Hairspray and Into the Woods on Broadway), and A.C.T. core acting company member Gregory Wallace ('Tis Pity She's a Whore and The Government Inspector).

Flat Menu XML
Flat menu is a drop down flash menu with sub menus, the menu can be configured by editing a configuration file (menu.xml) with a text editor. You can change buttons colors, button text, links, target frame, etc.
Most users only need the menu to open the site links but for advanced users this menu can also trigger other actions in addition to opening html pages, the menu can also call functions inside flash file, do loadMovie, go to another frame, trigger FScommands and more.
Menu preview 1, with bevel activated, menu_width = "511"
This drop down flash menu has something different than what we did before; this menu resizes it's own div in html code so that it doesn't overlap other html items like html links, normally if the menu is only made transparent and you can see the content behind it you cannot click html links in some browsers like Mozilla, but this menu resizes its own div when menus are collapsed so that it only uses around 22px of vertical space without affecting the html content under it (like this text).
Menu preview 2, without bevel, menu_width = "590" showing blank bar on right side
As you can see the second menu has a more "flat" look and it doesn't have 1px bevel on main buttons like the first menu, you can change this by show_bevel = "true" or "false".
This menu can also be used without flash program, it is a standalone file that can be configured with a text editor, you will get the exact html code to place the swf file in your html page, then edit the configuration file to change colors, links, menu speed, etc. These options look like this: menu_width="760" main_button_height="22" main_text_color="FF9900".
Source file is included in case you want to do advanced modifications, source file is compatible with Flash MX 2004 and later.
Sample xml file form menu configuration:
<menu text="Services" what="http://www.adriantnt.com" where="_parent" type="geturl">
Some more advanced options for this drop down menu:
You might not understand all these commands but if you do not know what they do just leave them as they are by default.
By default the menu is set to open html links.
|action type when a button is clicked. Default is set to "getURL", meaning the button will open a link, other values can be loadMovie, function, gotoAndStop, gotoAndPlay, FScommand.
|this parameter shows what URL to open, what frame to go to, what movie to load or what FS command to trigger, depending on the action type set above
|this parameter is the target frame of the url to open or the clip where to load a movie or where to play frames, depending on the action type.
|width of the menu bar
|text color of main button
|text color of main button when mouse is on button
|text color for sub menus
|text color of sub button when mouse is on button
|this is drop down menu speed, how many pixels to move at once
|how many milliseconds to wait before closing the sub menu after mouse is no longer on button
|left-right space of main button text
|left-right space of sub button text
|height of main button, in pixels
|height of sub buttons, in pixels
|color of main button, enter it without #, for example: "FFCC00" is yellow
|color of main button border, when bevel is enabled this border is no longer visible and the bevel colors will be visible
|color of sub button
|borders around sub buttons
|a gradient is made of two colors, a and b are the start and the end colors of button when mouse is over the button. If you want a flat rollover color then make a and b the same.
|if set to "true" then a 1px bevel will be visible on main buttons, like on the first menu above.
|the color of the top and left area of the bevel, light area.
|the bevel color on right and bottom side of the menu
|this can be "true" or "false", when set to true flash will send a command by javascript in order to resize the menu div in HTML code so that menu si no longer overlapped with the html items under it.
|the html id of the div to be resized, in the code you receive this is set to "flat_menu", the name of the div in html code.

Beer Review: Stone Imperial Russian Stout
Beer Sessions
I served this imperial Russian stout from Stone Brewing Co. at our Memorial Day cookout, and to be honest, it was gone so quickly that I barely got in a decent tasting! This is one smooth talking beer, all right. Silky and rich from the first sip to the last, I really can't blame my guests for jealously guarding their glasses.
Beer Details: Stone Imperial Russian Stout from Stone Brewing Co., Escondido, CA (10.5% ABV, 52 IBUs)
Appearance: Pitch black with a tight cap of mocha-colored foam
Aroma: Roasted coffee beans with a waft of smoke laid on top. Breathe deep and you'll get some spicy hops along with touch of anise.
Taste: One sip and I found myself reduced to mono-syllables: smoky, silky, coffee, sweet, and just plain ol' good. So good that I just kept taking sip after sip, emptying my glass before I realized it was gone. (My advice: buy two bottles.)
The malts are as rich and roasted as freshly-ground coffee, and the woodsy hop flavors add just the right balance of bitterness without actually...well, making it bitter. As it warms, more burnt sugar and herbal notes emerge, especially that sweet licorice flavor. The beer is silky and smooth, but with just enough carbonation to tickle the tongue.
By the by, Stone Brewing Co has also released a version of this beer that they steeped in oak chips and whole star anise pods, and then finished with a bit of Belgian yeast. Look for it labeled Stone BELGO Anise Imperial Russian Stout. I have a bottle on my shelf, and I'm not sure I'm going to be able to share it.
Food Pairings: I'd recommend trying this one on its own first, but the smoky notes in this beer make it a perfect choice for barbecue.
Have you tried this Imperial Russian Stout yet?

If you ever get out to San Diego it's worth a trip to the Stone Brewery. They give free tours of their facility and generous samples after the tour. They also have a restaurant there which looks delicious, but we weren't able to stick around to try it that day. Their outdoor space is lovely, too. I'm not a beer drinker, but it was a lovely place to sit and relax while enjoying their craft beers or one of the others they have on tap. They support other craft beer suppliers as well in their restaurant. One thing I did pick up in their gift shop was a bar of beer soap. It's quite nice and manly! :)
One of the best deals for an imperial stout. Surprisingly smooth and balanced on release, with little to no alcohol presence despite the 10.5% abv. As far as I'm aware, the Belgo anise version of the Stone IRS was not barrel aged.
Imperial Russian stout is one of my favorite beer styles, and Stone's is one of my favorite of the style. Yum!
Stone has started their summer Late Night Movies series--I'll definitely be having the Russian Imperial stout while enjoying RiffTrax tomorrow night!
nataku - you're right about the barrel-aging! I just got clarification from the brewery and will update the info in the post asap.
@SewTrashy Next time, plan ahead to go to the restaurant! Seriously amazing dishes and one of my favorite places to eat in all of Southern California!

This is a difficult time for the NHL, for its commissioner, Gary Bettman, and for hockey. It's no less difficult for the NFL, for its commissioner, Roger Goodell, for the NCAA, and for football. Head injuries have become an overwhelming fact of life in sports. The immensity of the number, the prominence of the names, the life-altering impact on their lives, and, more disturbing, if that's possible, the now sheer routineness of their occurrence. The Crosby hit didn't seem like much. If it hadn't been Crosby, the clip of the incident would never have made the highlight reel. And if so much can happen out of so little, where is all this going? Who else? How many more? How bad might this get? Careers and lives of players, we know now, have been shortened, diminished, snuffed out by head injuries. What once had seemed debatable, deniable, spin-able, now is not. What once had been ignored now is obvious. Not just contact or collision sports, hockey and football are dangerous sports.posted by auto-correct at 2:12 PM on October 15, 2011 [4 favorites]
The future doesn't have to be one of pointed fingers and shouted denials. None of us knows the answer. All of us know the problem. We are all in this together. We love our sports. We love to play them and watch them. We love to argue over them. We love the inspiration and the excitement they bring. We want sports to be part of our lives forever. We know that sports will not go away, but we also know that the role they play in our lives is at risk. This is a fearful time, but it can be an exciting time.
I have a much harder time buying vegetables and electronics than I do watching contact sports, because the people who are hurt in fields and sweatshops are on another playing field, so to speak.Yeah, and I'm not a big fan of paying taxes given a sizable chunk go to support a middle east expedition where some good people I know from high school and college are in direct risk of being literally blown up. But I enjoy driving on interstates and not going to jail so as opposed to withdrawal and obstinate dissension (via not paying taxes) I still argue conscious participation is better.

22 Responses to USA 3, Antigua & Barbuda 1: Match Highlights
I came away from that game very unimpressed with Maurice Edu, but after watching the highlights, he had two very nice balls, one at about the 3:40 mark and the other at about 5:20. Also, Herculez Gomez is quickly becoming one of my favorite players on this team.
Edu caused several issues with errant passing, but most of that came from the ball bogging down on the wet surface. That affected our ball movement more than anything. Our biggest concern is what on earth is going on with the back line. That is now 3 left backs we have lost. I certainly hope Johnson is ready soon. Having to slide Boca out wide and bringing in Gooch cost us a clean sheet. Gooch has simply not returned to being the Gooch we all loved. I am scared to death every time he steps on the field. That leaves only Cameron as cover in the center.
For all the whinging, this was very close to a blowout.
Gooch's last stab notwithstanding, AB did not threaten much: 2 shots on goal, one of which was the Byers "breakaway". If not for several excellent saves by the keeper, US scores 3 or 4 more= blowout.
I don't see why we don't give Parkhurst a chance, in the middle alongside Goodson with Boca on the left, or Parkhurst himself at LB. Surely we're not going to hold a nice DDR move against him for the rest of his USMNT career, if any, despite seven years of pretty much impeccable defending at a reasonably high level?
Totally agree. I think he's seen as being "too small" to be an international center back, so he has to be twice as good to overcome the bias, a bit like Nick Rimando.
Gomez rocks.
I'm totally gay for that dude! :/
I just had to go back and watch Parkhurst's 60 yard goal, good stuff.
I have never been super impressed by Gomez. But I do appreciate his hustle and work ethic. I seem to remember a guy who partnered with Jozy not long ago who hustled like that and played the whole field and that was a pretty great combo….Charlie something.
Maybe Herc and Jozy together is worth a look. We don't need to have three defensive midfielders to get through qualifying
Two words – Jonathan Bornstein!
I completely agree. I think they would compliment each other very well. I think Klinsmann's reason of Jozy not being fit enough to play is garbage. He was probably more fresh than everyone else out there. The entire team looked completely exhausted the past two games and it makes me question the tactics of all the training and games.
I remember always being impressed w/Parkhurst at cb back in his Revs days. Whatever he lacks in stature, he makes up for in intelligence. I'm ok with a Goodson/Parkhurst pairing for the time being.
Feel better about the game after watching this. It was very frustrating to see the boys (especially LD and Deuce) not let it rip and keep going for the extra pass, but it wasn't horrible. The monsoon-like weather definitely leveled the playing field
He stole that goal from Bradley – not once, but twice. Check out Bradley's face after Gomez scores.
That being said, I like his hustle out there.
Is Hercules Gomez the 2nd coming of Joe-Max Moore?
ha-ha. True. Bradley wanted that goal bad and looks miffed when Gomez scores. But I don't think Gomez stole the ball. Bradley tried a shot and was simply not quick enough to try a second one. Gomez did what good forwards do: took the ball, dribbled and scored. I am totally impressed with Gomez, definitely the man of the match last night.
I get the feeling that some of the Old Guard might be feeling threatened by Gomez's great form. In the video at 2:40, Donovan appears angry at Gomez on a fast break for shooting instead of passing to him, holding his arms out frustration and glaring at Gomez. But if you look at the play closely, the passing lane was not open for Gomez and the shot was the right thing. And a few minutes later, in a scene not in the highlights, Gomez passed to Donovan, when he should have fired a shot instead. Weird stuff going on around the field last night.
Don't insult the guy.
Yeah I noticed that from Dempsey too, both are major dbags.
I think a better question is why Parkhurst didn't start at LB in the first place.
I was hoping either Gomez or Wondolowski would get a chance for significant playing time, as both are playing very well right now. Keep Gomez in the lineup, he has been effective.
yeah is so bad because all those goals scored in Mexico were a total fluke.
A very positive note from this game is that Boyd is officially cap tied with the USMNT, and he´s a very promising player
any word on torres?

The 411 Music Top Five 08.20.13: The Top 5 Worst Songs of the Summer
Posted by
Jeremy Thomas
on 08.20.2013
From T.I. & Lil Wayne's "Wit Me" and Miley Cyrus' "We Can't Stop" to Flo Rida and Pitbull's "Can't Believe It," Ke$ha's "Crazy Kids" and more, the 411 staff count down their top 5 worst songs of summer 2013!
Summertime is almost done, and there has been a lot of music released during it. Some definite highs but some pretty soul-shattering lows as well. We're going with the lows this week, and thus we present to you the worst songs that came to infect the airwaves during the summer time of 2013!
Honorable Mention:
Robin Thicke - "Blurred Lines": After listening to this song again, I don't hate the song as much as I hate it getting in my head.
5. T.I. (ft. Lil Wayne) - "Wit Me"
Not quite sure if this came out too early to count as a summer song, it might, but the awfulness of this song can't be missed, I absolutely despise it. Here's my buy or sell blurb, I don't think I can say it better than I said it.
"I wont lie, almost everything I have heard from this man makes me plead for a barbed wire colonoscopy, this was no difrferent, really. T.I.'s verses were better, I liked them a bit more than Waynes' versus, but I though his were pretty awful and a bad way to start the song. This was another of those songs that I wasn't going to like, I already knew that, but it was worse than I thought, with the whole WIT ME thing in the chorus really just annoying me to death."
4. Selena Gomez - "Come and Get It"
I wonder how many times the phrase, "When you ready come and get it", can be uttered? Seriously, that feels like half of the song, then again, it's the chorus, so maybe that's why it's said so many damn times, but I'm convinced that it's just there so many times because there isn't much to this song in terms of concept, nor is it taken very far out of the concept of the song, which is, I have love, come get it. Though I will admit that the NAH NA NAH NAH is catchy, if not insufferable after a while.
3. Flo Rida (ft.Pitbull) - "Can't Believe It"
This song got worse the second time I listened to it, didn't think that was possible.
"Damnit, why does nobody recognize that Sir Mix-A-Lot is the only man that can pull of a great ass song, I really wish Mr.Rida here would figure it out. I mean, the guy isn't exactly David Bowie in terms of creativity, or Bob Dylan in terms of lyrics, but I really hope that he can pull something out of his ass that is better than this. It's a generic club banger, with Flo Rida psuedo singing badly, then Pitbull shows up to give me more of a reason to turn this song off. It's just a really mediocre song, and I'll die happy if I never heard it again."
2. Miley Cyrus - "We Can't Stop"
If I wouldn't have went through the Buy or Sell column's I've participated in this summer, this would have been the undisputed numero uno, I despise this song, absolutely despise it. The basic premise of this song is everything that I find wrong in a lot of my fellow youth nowadays, people thinking that just because it's fun, there shouldn't be any consequences", the whole #YOLO sort of thing, and it pisses me off to no end. The song is so lifeless and lacks anything that would make anyone think that it's anything more than Miley Cyrus trying to prove that she's grown up by making drug references and shaking her lack of an ass like there is no tomorrow. The concept, I have addressed as bad, but I think I also should highlight just how bad the execution of this concept is. The lyrics are just shit, total shit, the personification of shit, and I wont accept anything to the contrary. Miley sounds pretty soulless in this, fits the tone of the song, I guess, but that's little excuse. This is one of those songs that I REALLY hope gets buried in the vault of shit music over the next couple of years, this is just awful, soulless, and highlighting everything that I hated about the bros in high school who showed up hungover at grduation. Before I close, I also want to say that I hate the video, but it wont stick with me like this song did, it scarred my soul. But it's still not the worst of the year, because that one hits close to my home genre.
1. The Issues - "Hooligans"
I have a giant blurb from Buy or Sell to give you, but before I do, I do want to apologize for how angry I come across, because this song really tripped wires in my brain that make me see red. This song is worse than Miley, though, no joke, you have been warned.
"I got to this song, and it started kind of odd, I expected some generic scream and riff (because I had wikipedia'd this band as the song started), and I did not get that. No, I got something that sounded like it came off of the local hip-hop station, so you can understand my confusion, because I was expecting metalcore. Then came my expectations, and they were met faster than I expected. This is the shit that I hate, and when I say hate, I mean that five seconds of music like gets my blood boiling, it really does. I know that it shouldn't, because this isn't metal, even if it has elements of metal, but I see this as an inferior piece of shit attempt at trying to meld the genre of metalcore (which I don't like that much) with pop (like metalcore needed to be poppier), and it just makes me so angry. The starting riff is pretty mediocre, just like the rest of the song, just listen to the individual instruments for a second. Notice that the riff is the most technical thing there, after that, it is just your generic "core" beats that start and stop, and rinse, wash, and repeat, and that is unacceptable. I especially am annoyed at the turntable being used, but at least they decided to go all out with the pop influences. Speaking of pop influences, let me talk about the vocalists. The unclean vocalist, Douchey McBrootalstein (I looked up his name, it's Michael Bohn, not that it matters), and he is pretty much your typical metalcore screamer, he has zero range, just does his thing, and lets the clean vocalist, named Tyler Carter, sing. His voice is not that bad, but it pisses me off that he is there, because his chorus really doesn't fit with the breakdown verses that are manned by Bohn. I'll be done in a second, because I know I'm overreacting to this song, but it just really makes me angry. Bands and music like this is the reason that I have to explain to people that death metal bands are "screamo", because this is what people think of when they say "screamo", I hate that term by the way, it is my number one pet peeve. In summation, this band is something that my 15 year old sister would eat up, a bunch of pretty assholes in polos, flannels, and sleeve tattoos and hipster glasses. Bands like this are the lowest common denominator in terms of music, and are the reason metal is looked down upon in a lot of societies. Bands like this are immature, lacking in anything resembling a technical skill, and living off of the fact that they have 17 year olds that will eat this up because they don't have the fucking sense that God gave a fucking lemming, and I remember being 17 and thinking that stuff that was not nearly as bad as this was the be all,end all of music, and I would punch 17 year old me in the fact right now, because 17 year old me is the reason that this band exists."
Honorable Mention:
Robin Thicke (T.I. + Pharrell) - "Blurred Lines," Florida Georgia Line (ft. Nelly) - "Cruise," Rocko (ft. Future and Rick Ross) - "U.O.E.N.O."
5. Ke$ha (ft. will.i.am) - "Crazy Kids"
Oh, Ke$ha. Ke$ha, Ke$ha, Ke$ha. The pop star preceded the summer by drinking her own urine on her MTV documentary (which, for the record, has been renewed for a second season) and then released this, her latest travesty of a pop single. Listen, I won't say that I like Ke$ha but she's enjoyable when she does her kitschy tongue-in-cheek stuff. But this song is just abysmal and will.i.am, fresh off his own depressingly bad solo album release, doesn't add anything even remotely worth listening to. The entire thing is completely forgettable and for Ke$ha, who gets off on bad attention as much as good, that's the worst possible result.
4. Miley Cyrus - "We Can't Stop"
Miley Cyrus needs to stop trying to be a pop star and stick to acting. I'm not saying she's good at that, but she's been an embarassment as a pop star in a while. Remember "Can't Be Tamed" where Miley Bird longs to be free and wild? Yeah, that's Adele compared to this wierd-ass over-produced mess. The lyrics are incredibly banal and generic, right down to the shoehorned-in controversy over "dancing with molly/Miley." I'm not even going to begin to get into the music video. Yes Miley...is your mouth and you can say what you want to. But I sure as hell don't have to listen.
3. Icona Pop (ft. Charli XCX) - "I Love It"
If this list was built purely on personal dislike, this would probably be #1. I loathe this song, but if I'm being objective it isn't the worst thing. But it sure as hell isn't anything even remotely approaching 'good' and I can't see why anyone would have any love for it. It's basically half-assed word salad set to a generic beat that sounds like it was composed using Super Generic EDM BeatMaker 1.5. The thing was very clearly made not out of any artistic value but because they felt they could ape a thousand other songs, throw in a little peppy girl power and call it a hit. Sadly, they were right and our ears have all paid the price.
2. One Direction - "Best Song Ever"
You know why I hate this one? Besides the fact that it's One Direction, the only boy band more soulless than The Wanted, delivering bland and generic pop shit with all the heart and emotion of a midi keyboard. And don't get me wrong; all of that is bad. But let's not kid ourselves; I don't care if Pete Townshend is okay with it, I am not okay with the fact that they ripped off "Baba O'Riley" for this. There are certain musical crimes that are absolutely, 100% unforgivable. Ladies and gentlemen, with that I present the song with a name so ironic, it's hilarious: "Best Song Ever."
1. Major Lazer (ft. 2 Chainz, Bruno Mars, Tyga & Mystic) - "Bubble Butt"
No. There is no debate here. This is the worst song of the summer. End of story. The song is only three and a half minutes and the first twenty seconds is just repeating the phrase "Bubble Butt." And once the lyrics start, you wish they would just loop that twenty seconds on repeat. It's brutally bad. 2 Chainz, Bruno Mars, Tyga, Mystic...not one of them add even a single moment of music-worthiness here. It's the aural equivalent of having an ice pick jammed underneath your fingernails. If I never, ever, EVER hear this again it will be too soon.
