THC Lyrics - Oi Polloi
Oi! Oi!
Dug my fuckin' shit-pit
I had to spend a penny
I had to blag some diesel
For the fuckin' genny
Now we're skinning up
This gear is fuckin' beezer
Have you got a quid for some diesel, geezer?
Scored some good grass
And it was fuckin' great
Toking on a bong in our Mercedes 508
Someone said the vigies
Vigies were on site
But we just went on tokin'
Tokin' thru the nite
sponsored linksT.H.C.
Dahn at 'anging Langford
Sitting in our bender
Stones out of our heads
Discussing the politics of gender
Things were getting heavy
The pigs wanted revenge
We told them to smoke the herb

Report: Celtics still pursuing Kevin Love
|07.06.14 at 12:14 am ET
According to a tweet from Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, the Celtics and Danny Ainge haven't given up their pursuit of Timberwovlves forward Kevin Love.
Saturday afternoon, Wojnarowski tweeted the following:
Here's something that remains unchanged: Danny Ainge's relentless pursuit of creative ways to engage Minnesota on a Kevin Love deal.
— Adrian Wojnarowski (@WojYahooNBA) July 5, 2014
There are, of course, other teams also vying for the services of Love, including (as SI.com points out) the Chicago Bulls.
Stay tuned …

I thought they buried her body but maybe I am wrong.
I do not like Andrea, and I think Michonne is a pure badass.

What are you watching (TV)
I just discovered/started watching:
It's fantastic and has Kumail Nanjiani (who rules).
I'm keeping up with this show and just watched all of Broad City (which was solid) in one sitting and am up for suggestions of other shows to watch. I've heard good things about True Detective and will probably give that a whirl soon.
What else are y'all watching and would suggest others to check out if they aren't already watching?

COPS: not the show
Arguing with my cop friend about this opinion piece from a recent NY Post declaring "open season on cops" she shared today. She goes all over the fucking place when I mention that policework is not the only occupation that requires accountability, but this was the last comment:
lol it's almost sad how people work themselves up into police conspiracy theories like we have all these big secrets. It laughable. Everything we do and say is a public record. I can't WAIT till the body camera thing shows the truth and backfires on everyone who thinks WE are the enemy. Lol it's actually laughable... People should be careful what they wish for Cuz they're gonna get it and video doesn't lie. And then since we are "civil servants" all our footage is also public record and free for the world to see... Bye bye privacy for everyone and then everyone can know how it feels to be filmed day in and day out. U want accountability? Me too! So say hello to big brother in the form of body worn cameras!
Do we really think this is bye-bye privacy? Aren't we all being filmed most of the time anyway? Is it weird that she tells me she's constantly paranoid about being killed by someone who thinks cops are horrible but then says people who think there's a police conspiracy are "laughable"?
Anyway, this will be my cop friend on Facebook repository since no one on her page ever jumps in to agree with me.

Dear MOC, What Ails You?
Post your weird illnesses, birth defects, and health issues here!
It is always interesting to hear what others are afflicted with in hopes that your own health issues pale in comparison to those around you.
Two to start:
Luckily I don't have severe scoliosis and I didn't need a back brace growing up but my youth and adult life has been spattered by expensive trips to physiotherapy, massage therapists, acupuncture clinics, and chiropractors (I hate chiropractors and stopped seeing them 13 years ago).
My scoliosis also impacts the way I walk (I tend to weave on sidewalks) and in turn it messes with my knees and legs. As a result of this, I sometimes get flare ups of mild bursitis. My knees suck and I now have a legit excuse not to join most sport teams.

The CB500X is the last of Honda's new-for-2013, novice and A2-licence friendly 500-twin triumvirate – the others being the CB500F roadster and CBR500R sports bike – and for our money it's the best of the bunch. The X's subtly larger proportions make it more versatile, more man-sized machine, while losing virtually nothing in terms of manageability and agility. Its adventure ...
921cc, 130bhp, 158mph, Insurance group 17
The 920 is the new entry-level MV Agusta Brutale which, despite lashings of Italian flair and 130bhp performance, costs the same as a Yamaha FZ1 at £9999. It has a number of changes aimed at keeping the cost down over the bigger capacity 990R and 1090R bigger brother.
999cc, 178bhp, 180mph, Insurance group 17
The big news for the 2009 Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade isn't its new, oval-shaped indicators, but its revolutionary electronically-controlled Combined ABS system. This makes the Honda Fireblade the world's first ever ABS-equipped superbike. This system takes none of the enjoyment out of riding this incredible superbike and it feels just the same to ride as a normal Blade, even on the ...

Suzuki's new budget and novice-friendly GSXF650F all-rounder proves that sometimes, brilliance is found in the most unlikely places. Although on face value merely a 'Bandit with a fairing' the GSX650F's blend of real world performance, practicality, fun factor and value is pretty much unmatched anywhere. Watch the Suzuki GSX650F take on the Honda CBF600S and the Kawasaki ER-6F Watch ...

In the Kawasaki ZX-6R, Kawasaki has built a race ready 600 which is road legal, just. Everything about the ZX-6R is track focused, you could enter a standard Kawasaki ZX-6R into a club race and you wouldn't be far behind the top runners. The more you thrash it the more fun you'll have. The Kawasaki ZX-6R is easily the most fun ...
535cc, 38bhp, 100mph, Insurance group 8
The XV535 Virago is where Yamaha started giving Harley-Davidson a run for their money: it was the first of their cruiser motorcycles and it certainly lasted well. The Yamaha XV535 is basic, trusted, easy to ride and with unchallenging but enjoyable performance. What's more this Virago is a great value for money motorcycle and perfect for newbies or laid back commuters.
996cc, 118bhp, 155mph, Insurance group 15
The Suzuki SV1000 is a purpose built big capacity, sensibly priced, road going sporty V-twin. Ok, the engine's nicked from Suzuki's old TL1000S but the rest of the SV1000 is all-new yet the price tag is very reasonable new or used. The faired Suzuki SV1000 'S' version has lower bars but is the better all-rounder. The unfaired SV1000 with higher bars is a ...
988cc, 164bhp, 186mph, Insurance group 16
Ultra fast, capable track missile that works far better on the road then you'd imagine. The MK II Suzuki GSX-R1000 (K3-K4) thou is smaller and more compact than the Suzuki GSX-R1000 K1-K2 models. It's easier to flick around race tracks but, bizarrely, the Suzuki GSX-R1000 makes an acceptable one-man sports tourer too.
749cc, 100bhp, 152mph, Insurance group 14
For many, bike journalists included, the best road bike ever built. In 1994 Honda revised an already exceptional motorcycle, giving it super-model looks while still retaining those quintessential VFR qualities of legendary reliability, consistent performance and supreme comfort. The bodywork become less angular and gained Ferrari-esque louvres on its side panels.

Tests have shown that nine out of 10 road testers prefer the Kawasaki ER-6 to virtually any other middleweight machine. Bandits, Fazers, Monsters, SV650s… The Kawasaki ER-6 has trounced the lot of 'em. A cunningly-disguised riot of fun, the Kawasaki ER-6 is cute, it's capable and it's competent just about anywhere.

Bar Harbor House Rental Photos and Description
House, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath, (Sleeps 4-6)
One reason guests like to come back to our home is the neighborhood, and the neighbors. Need a break from noise and commotion? Our Snow Street Cottage is one long block away from Main Street and about five blocks from the heart of Bar Harbor. You wouldn't know it, though. The neighbors are local doctors, realtors, restaurant owners who are very friendly. The street is quiet and filled with nicely kept homes.
When we stay in Bar Harbor we enjoy waking up early and walking from our home to the shore path, around the corner, which winds around the perimeter of Bar Harbor, past the mansions and the fragrant primrose, to the wharf. The views of the Porcupine Islands are calming and peaceful. On the way back home a number of shops offer fresh pastries and a morning cup of coffee or juice to start our day.
Being so close to town, Acadia, the shore path means that you are in the heart of what makes Bar Harbor so much fun. We used to rent homes ourselves so we've taken care to make sure the beds are very comfortable, the kitchen and bath are modern, and the warm, soft glow of the original wood molding and fixtures are preserved to give you the feel of a comfortable home.
Outside, the grounds are green and colorful with summer flowers and lilies, iris and a different planting in our bathtub planter each season. We're only two blocks from the hospital and the local doctors so care is never far away if you need it. Dogs are welcome too, upon approval. Hope you'll be our guest this year!
- Suitability:
- Minimum Age Limit for Renters
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets considered
- wheelchair inaccessible
About Herb Hess
Toni and I and the kids enjoy hiking, kayaking, Family Fun Day at Seur Des Monts in Acadia (in July). We've been vacationing in Bar Harbor every summer since about 1998. We all enjoy the friendships we have formed here, which have lead to visits back to the Island every Thanksgiving as well. When we're not here we enjoy gardening, rollerskating and rollerblading, the beach, and hangin' with the kids.
Herb Hess purchased this house in 2003
Why Herb Hess chose Bar Harbor
Toni and I had been vacationing in Bar Harbor for about 7 years before we decided to be part of this wonderful community. Every few years we would extend our own vacation from one week to two to ... You get the idea.
Now that we have the opportunity to share Bar Harbor with our parents and kids for a good part of the summer, we reluctantly depart but are very happy in knowing that we can share the beauty of this town, island, and National treasure with many others.
What makes this house unique
Our neighbors are also the proprietors of two local restaurants - Poor Boys and McKays.
Poor Boys has the freshest lobster and stone crab claws you'll find (other than cooking them at home). I also enjoy their blueberry Daquiris (virgin, so my kids can try it too). Be sure to tell Kathleen that Herb and Toni sent you and look for the $1 off coupons in our kitchen drawer.
McKays menu continually changes and is perfect for an American or European taste in a beautifully restored home setting, often with live entertainment and outdoor seating available, too. Say Hi to Brian when you get there.
Life would not be complete without the Farmers Market on Sunday at the YMCA parking lot from 9 to noon. We're particularly taken with the Camembert cheese rounds that we pair up with baguette bread from Hannaford's and Palacio chorizo we bring from our winter home.
We'll take these treats to Compass Harbor (see our map on this listing) for a secluded picnic, dog walk, and restful afternoon.

Confessions of a BadAssMama - The Relapse Edition
Yeah, about that...
Apparently I am smack-dab-in-the-middle of a vicious, full on relapse. It's not the perfectionism that bothers me, per se. It's all the pesky symptoms that accompany it (kind of like those HORRIFYING prescription medication commercials that say a drug will help quiet your overactive bladder, but may make your face fall off...). Symptoms like:
- Tension headaches
- Shoulder and neck pain
- Self doubt, accompanied by extreme self-criticism
- Short temper
- Insomnia
- Loss of appetite, followed shortly by
- Binge eating
- Fits of Martha Stewart-like cleaning and organizing mania
- Recurring nightmare that I did not graduate from college because I failed to turn in a final paper
- Anxiety
- Depression
- General PMS-like symptoms

Request Week is becoming two months. Anyway, I did this for Erica, who has a certain fondness for manatees and animated GIF's.
How the sausage is made: a look into my Photoshop process for anyone who is curious.
A collaboration with the awesome kentonblogs! :3
If any of you aren't following Erica on Tumblr already, you should get on it. I made this tortoise and hare for a poster project back in school and had been thinking about animating them. Erica is a master of crackly scratch-on-film effects, so we combined forces.
Happy Birthday to an all around excellent babe, Vickie Verhagen! See you in New York!
Today is a Motion Monday!
The Xerox Miracle, GIF'ed.
Making Hallowe'en bearable.

Happy Tumblrversary
Do you know what today is? That's right! Today is the one year anniversary of the day I made my first Tumblr post! If you don't remember, it was an image of a very large woman playing a glockenspiel, which I posted to make sure I knew how Tumblr works. And I guess I did.
I've been working on some paintings recently, but I can't post them here yet because of reasons. So you get this instead.

Following a consistent theme throughout, with nothing on the car manufactured after WWII, he wanted to create a roadster as if somebody like Edsel Ford had an around-town car created in the late '30s. Streamline Moderne design elements could be found throughout the build.

Coneflower - Meringue.
- Starting at: $0.00 - Out of stock
Questions? (888) 864-7663
White Fluff
Coneflower Meringue, Echinacea purpurea 'Meringue' PPAF, produces creamy yellow pom-poms with apple green centers, set atop white ray petals, creating this delicious "meringue" coneflower.
As the flower ages, Echinacea 'Meringue' PPAF, opens as flat as a daisy, and as it matures the center cone grows upward and develops short, puffy petals that give it that gumdrop look.
A delight for songbirds, this distinctive knee high variety was introduced by AB Cultivars and blooms from mid to late summer. 'Meringue' has a huge number of blooms which is marvelous, but it's the compact, easily controlled habit that is so impressive!
The sturdy stems carry the blossoms from midsummer to fall. For best results, plant in full sun in a well drained area.
Echinacea is known for its large flower heads that turn to seed in the fall. It is a great choice for cut flowers, and it adds a wilderness look to your garden.
'Meringue' usually reblooms without deadheading, but if spent flowers are removed, this procedure will encourage continued beautiful blooms and improves general appearance.
If you leave some spent blooms on the plants in fall their seeds provide winter food for birds. You can enjoy the dried seed heads as well, because they will provide architectural interest in the winter.
Meringue' will give you weeks of delicious color and makes a dependable and lovely plant for any sunny garden spot!

In addition to over 1500 race participants, numerous casual observers were exposed to the timeline. This project works well in the classroom at a scale of 1 mm = 1 million years, and as a manageable one-day outdoor sidewalk chalk activity at a scale of 1" = 1 million years. Timelines drawn to scale lead the observer to the inescapable conclusions that "simple" life appeared early in Earth history; that it took the bulk of Earth history to achieve the next, multi-cellular stage of development; and that once the metazoan threshold was crossed, subsequent biological diversification-and the resulting fossil record-followed in rapid succession.

Today, the Islanders unveiled their jersey for their January 29th Stadium Series tilt against the Rangers at Yankee Stadium. John Tavares modeled the Isles new threads, and he liked them a lot. "I think they are really sharp", Tavares said.
Matt Martin also was excited about his new duds. He "can't wait to get his hands on it.", and called the jersey futuristic.
Although we see the classic NY with a hockey stick as part of the logo, the Long Island part of the logo has been removed.The logo has that shiny, chrome look to it, as do all logos for all teams participating in the stadium series. The players, as well as GM Garth Snow had some input on the jersey design. At this point, we are unsure of what the Rangers jersey will look like. But, ironically this particular jersey looks a lot like the Rangers white jersey with the Statue of Liberty on it.
Throughout all the tinkering the team has done to the jerseys in the past 15 plus years, this may be the best incarnation yet. We have had the Fisherman, the old logo with the new colors, the orange third jersey, the Reebok jerseys and then the black third jersey. That is without mentioning the many incarnations of the original Islanders blue and orange. From a fan's standpoint no one was really ever in love with any of them. By those standards this is a home run.
The team is very excited about being a part of the Stadium Series, and playing the Rangers in one of baseball's most famous cathedrals. John Tavares is definitely pumped, and he even threw a little bit of a jab in the direction of the Isles longtime rivals. "Obviously playing the Rangers in that game, there's a lot of fight over who¹s New York¹s team and whatnot, and I think that's still who we are."
Matt Martin is also pretty excited about the game, which takes place in almost exactly two months. He said "I did a promo at Yankee Stadium for this game and I was standing on the mound and kind of looking around and getting a little bit of the chills and realizing how amazing this is going to be. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and not a lot of people get to be a part of it. To play the Rangers, our biggest rival? It's going to be crazy."
There is plenty of work to be done between then and now however, and let's just hope the November struggles of the Isles are long behind them, and the craziness is taken to a whole new level with two very competitive, playoff bound teams. Well, at least the one from Long Island.

Renowned "dirty bass" technicians Far East Movement and up-and-coming producer/DJ, Rell The Soundbender, teamed up for the latest dubbed out banger to hit the EDM waves, "Ain't Coming Down (Yeah I'm Trippin' Mix)," ft. Dirty Dutch producer Sidney Samson and Matthew Koma on vocals. Get ready for the club-ready music video from the full cast of dope artists that just premiered on This Song Is Sick. Check out the "Ain't Coming Down (Yeah I'm Trippin' Mix)" video below!
You may remember Matthew Koma's vocals from Zedd's monster house hit "Spectrum" while Rell The Soundbender just recently burst onto the electronic scene with his trap rave anthem, "Grimey Thirsty," also available on SoundCloud. All together these artists create an electro infused trap anthem set to blow clubs up around the world, and the official music video shows us exactly what happens when the track gets played live at a raging club - complete with a piñata and all.
The electro trap track first kicked off the New Year via Earmilk and will be featured on Far East Movement's new project, GRZZLY: The Dirtier Bass Remix Album, dropping February 2013. "We're always looking to bring a different bounce with our sound and wanted to trip out the speakers with this mix," says FM of their collaboration with Rell The Soundbender, of whom This Song Slaps notes "it's just a matter of time before he is recognized as one of the biggest names in trap."
Far East Movement have become a Worldwide sensation from Australia to Austria, Asia to the Netherlands - not bad for a group who paid their dues in the LA underground. Their last album, Dirty Bass, encompasses everything FM has ever represented: the Futuristic connection between dance, rap, and pop music-ideally played at a loud Volume while driving at a high velocity. The electrifying music video for "Turn Up The Love" has been viewed over 36 million times on YouTube.

During the mock-up stage of the build, Ken had a Flathead with a pair of Ardun heads bolted up, but he opted out of that idea and went with a 286 Flattie machined by BEP Racing Engines. Ken assembled the engine with a SCAT crank, Ross pistons, an Isky 400jr camshaft, and dialed in the heads from Motor City Flatheads with an 8:1 compression ratio. To feed the V-8 Ken turned to Tom Roberts Design in Ventura for one of their blower drive units and the special intake they made up for the Flathead.
Getting gas to the carbs is a long, circuitous route. It starts when Ken cracks the cap open to fill the Moon tank located forward of the grille. Behind the grille is a 190-gph fuel pump that pushes the gas to another 14-gallon tank at the rear of the car through a -10 line (there's a toggle switch that powers the pump located behind the grille, too). When the fuel pump is turned on, a solenoid closes the vent tube for the main gas tank. There's also a return line that comes back up to the Moon tank so, when gas comes out of it, Ken knows the system is full. And there's another small fuel pump that feeds the engine. And, if need be, Ken can throw a switch inside the car that makes the Moon tank operate as a reserve for an extra 3-1/2 gallons.
On top of the motor a pair of powdercoated Stromberg 97s mix the gas and air, and a Vertex magneto and wires deliver the spark. The headers (built by Ken and Don Lindfors) are unique, too, in that there is a standard exhaust tube fitted to the inside of the Limefire-style headers. Ken wanted it to look like he ran open headers, so when you look inside you can't see another tube inside. The exhaust then runs under the car and out through Bassani mufflers. A TREMEC five-speed transmission butts up to the Flathead and is equipped with a McLeod Racing clutch.
What you might notice first about the body is the chop, where Ken took 4 inches out of the posts, and 3 from the B-pillar and the rest of the car (except in the rear window where it was 2 inches), but you may not notice he shortened the body 1-1/2 inches in the quarter-panel just behind the doorjamb. Some might notice the wheelwells were raised 2 inches, while others would hone in on the filled roof—made by Ken out of two sheets of steel. A two-part bonding goo secured it to the roof's framework, and the edges were welded in place. The steel hood was also modified so the carbs could stick through, and Untouchable Metal Works in Colton, California, made the ring that is held in place by rivets.
And if you like rivets, you're gonna love the interior to Ken's sedan. Untouchable Metal started the interior for Ken using aluminum sheet and rivets, and eventually 2,086 hand-bucked rivets in all were used. Back in his shop Ken finished the harder interior sections (such as the upper corner pieces) and built the bomber-type seats, too.
Once the fabrication stopped, the bodywork began, and Jeff Sherman made sure everything was straight and flat before he painted the car gloss black. Miracle Design in Huntington Beach added the 11-D graphics to the door after asking Ken, "What do you want?" Ken replied, "What's the cheapest number you have?" and they answered, "The number one." Ken said "Give me four of them" and the 11-D was born.
Inside the car there is some minimal upholstery work on the seats from Kiwi Upholstery, and winged Stewart-Warner gauges occupy the aluminum dash insert made by Knecht Equipment Company. There's a sixth gauge—a tachometer—in an aluminum pod bolted to a homemade steering column, which is topped with a four-spoke Sprint-style steering wheel.
Throughout the build Ken found the machining Scott Longnecker did for him was invaluable. Ken would draw something out on a napkin of scrap of paper and Scott would bring him back a finished part. Scott, Mike Williams, and Jesse Johnson all work for Ken's company, and they all had a hand in putting the car together.
Five years after he started the project, Ken's grandson is now 15 years old, and Ken is hoping he might get more interested in hot rods. Matthew likes to kid Ken about possibly wanting some type of green hybrid as his first car, but we feel all Matthew has to do is take one blast in his grandpa's jalopy and he'll be hooked!

Dry pasta recommendations?
- Chemicalkinetics Oct 1, 2013 12:15 AM
I like to start a sub-thread, and I think it will be both a light-heart continuation of the current conversation and a practical one.
I used to buy a lot of dried pasta, but I have not done so for the last 3 years. I often bought the ones on sale. I do remember buying Barilla because they are not too expensive and they are good.
So, for those of you who talk about avoiding Barilla pasta, do you have any good recommendation for dry pasta?
Fresh pasta does not count, and home made pasta definitely does not count.
re: ttoommyy
Oh, yes. I remember that one. Thanks.
Culinary Circle, if you can find it. I buy it at Shoppers Food Warehouse in the DC area. It's bronze cut and about $1.50 a pound. They have harder to find shapes like bucatini, pennoni regate, cavatappi. Their linguine holds clam sauce beautifully. Come to think of it, I haven't made a trip to Shoppers in a while and need to for this.
re: cheesymama
I love Delverde. Not too expensive either.
I used to buy DaVinci, but my regular grocer (Raley's) dropped it. It's hard to find now, although I haven't tried to find another source because it doesn't matter that much to me. I have a variety of brands in my pantry, including DaVinci (Italian), Maltagliati (Italian), Vitale (Canadian), Raley's, and Barilla.
Raley's has a new Nob Hill Trading Co. brand of premium products which include pasta. I might try that, but the selection is limited to the most common shapes and sizes now.
re: GH1618
I definitely remember DaVinci. Man, I cannot even remember which one I like. I remember San Giorgio too.
re: GH1618
Also Ronzoni.
I do care about pasta and foods generally, but I have to say that most of them seem fine to me. But then again, I never buy rock-bottom priced brands. For me, it's a toss-up between the following brands, and I go by price: De Cecco, Barilla, Mueller, and Ronzoni. There are some one-off purchases: for example, my local store was apparently discontinuing their organic Dellalo line of pastas and I loaded up on them (excellent and clearance-cheap). Not sure I've tried many of those "artisinal" lines that talk on their labels about their bronze dies, etc. (e.g., Rustichella D'Abruzzo), but I bet they're good.
Cooks Illustrated recommended the Bionaturae line for whole-wheat pastas. I tried some, and it was indeed less offensive than the other whole-wheat or partly-whole wheat ones I've tried, but that's not exactly high praise, either.
re: Bada Bing
< but I have to say that most of them seem fine to me.>
That is my problem too. They are all alright.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Same. To me it's just dried pasta. I don't see how you can truly make it great or awful, but I'll admit, I haven't tried a lot of these brands listed, so maybe I'm wrong.
re: Bada Bing
Hi, Bada:
I suggest you get over the pasta blahs by ordering a pound of fresh bronze-cut from Il Corvo. ilcorvopasta.com See, http://www.seriouseats.com/2013/06/ea... They sell dry pasta, and I'm pretty sure they will ship. If they won't, I will.
re: kaleokahu
The new Nob Hill brand is bronze-cut. Do you know why that matters?
re: kaleokahu
Looks amazing, Kaleo. I even visit the Seattle area once or twice a year, so maybe I'll check out the guy's restaurant.
To GH1618: I've heard that the bronze-dies used to cut dried pasta produce a rougher texture that allows sauces to adhere and integrate more effectively with the pasta. There might be other factors, too.
re: Bada Bing
Yes, the bronze dies are used to obtain a rougher surface, which means an increased surface area. The advantages of that go beyond sauce-sticking. It makes the pasta more absorbent so the sauce goes into the pasta, more than just sticking to the surface. And even while the pasta is boiling, the salted water passes through the pasta better (or something), which also enhances flavor and texture.
(I've decided that if I'm making pasta for a buffet party, it's probably better to use a cheaper kind as the good stuff is too absorbent to sit out for an extended time.)
Bronze dies should ideally be accompanied by slow drying at low temperature, which also helps bring out the flavor of the pasta. This will probably be on the label as producers that can manage to do it are proud of the fact (humongous Barilla, for example, blast dries or they'd never be able to crank out the volume they do). Cavalieri, another excellent brand in addition to those already mentioned, boasts "delicate" drying. In fact, historically the drying was the secret of good pasta and the reason why Gragnano, with its hot sun and sea breezes, became so important. Also Torre Annunziata. The drying of pasta was a whole science, with the master pasta maker studying the weather and deciding when to bring it in out of the sun and when to take it out. (This is described in Encyclopedia of Pasta by Oretta Zanini De Vita, trans. moi.)
Another important factor nobody has mentioned is the quality of the wheat. The best pastas grow their own in Italy (e.g., Verrigni, Latini) or at least select carefully.
I buy Cavalieri, Cocco, Martelli, and Gragnano, often depending on the shape I want, since those are the brands I find at my habitual gourmet shop, Volpetti, in Rome. If I wind up having to buy at the supermarket, I usually get Garofalo, but also De Cecco. The other evening I made a humble spaghetti with tuna and tomatoes -- with super tomatoes from a friend's garden, fabulous tuna in olive oil -- and was pleased when Franco, my Roman husband, looked up and said "This is GOOD." (I was less pleased at the note of surprise, of course.) And then he specified that he was referring not to my wonderful sauce but to the pasta itself, which was Garofalo.
And one final note: I think that anyone who is paying attention and still can't notice a difference between pastas is using too much sauce. The pasta is meant to be the main attraction, not a vehicle for sauce.
re: mbfant
What an interesting and informative answer. Thanks! In particular, I don't think I've thought much about differences in drying.
Of the brands you mention, I'm only aware of De Cecco being commonly on hand here. It's the pasta I most commonly buy. I will have a look around in our two specialty Italian markets here to see if they stock any of the other brands you mention.
In 1996 I spent about a month in Italy (centered where my friends lived, in Perugia, Umbria). Especially after that visit, where I really saw all kinds of things about daily Italian life (for better and for worse), I came back to the USA with a way of thinking about pasta dishes which is often different from the American norm.
You are right that Americans tend to expect and even demand way too much sauce in pastas (provided, of course, that we regard them as caring much about pasta as such--I think, really, most Americans care more about the sauce, regarding pasta as a virtually neutral background).
re: mbfant
>>> And one final note: I think that anyone who is paying attention and still can't notice a difference between pastas is using too much sauce. The pasta is meant to be the main attraction, not a vehicle for sauce. <<<
Although I've never considered this before, I might be inclined to disagree. Some of the time-and-labor-intensive sauces I make are so delicious, I think the pasta IS the delivery mechanism. In fact, if I were to serve one of those sauces (say, duck ragu, or a wonderful Bolognese) with a great pasta, and someone commented on how good the pasta, itself, was, disregarding the sauce, I might be somewhat insulted.
If the pasta was the main attraction, I'd be inclined to serve it with a simple sauce -- butter and sage, for example. But when I labor over a sauce, to me, that's the star of the show. Just my opinion...
re: CindyJ
pasta with butter and grated cheese.
a simmering pot of sauce, no pasta, just crusty bread for dipping.
re: Gastronomos
Pasta with butter and cheese is a go to for me. Sometimes if I'm feeling creative I'll ad a dash of olive oil, a splash of lemon, and a bit of basil. I trust your opinion, is this wrong?
re: kaleokahu
I don't actually see how the pasta is orderable on the Il Corvo website. Is it in retail stores anywhere?
re: Bada Bing
Hi, Bada:
They always keep about 4 different shapes bagged up and ready for sale. I'd just call 'em and see if they'll ship--they prolly haven't even thought to offer it on line.
If they won't, like I said, I'll pick up a bag for you to try. Think the bags I bought were pricey, around $8/pound, so that plus shipping can make it happen...
re: kaleokahu
Hi, Kaleo,
I've just scheduled a flight into Sea-Tac to visit family for Thanksgiving. As I have a rental car, and we're to land 11am this coming Tuesday, I think I'll try this place before heading down to Olympia, where my family is. Let me know if you'd like to join me and my 14-year-old son for lunch. Or also, whether the place is tricky to get into--like long waits. If they sell dried stuff there, I can pack a bunch for the trip home.
re: kaleokahu
Hi, Kaleo,
Thanks for the tip! I made a special point of dropping by the Il Corvo restaurant on my recent trip to WA. The pasta is truly outstanding, as good as, if not better than, any I've tried before. The place was really busy, with a line, but the line moved pretty well in sync with the departures of people at the tables, so all was well. Clearly, this place has buzz. I bought a bag of dried pasta to take home to Indiana.
re: Bada Bing
If I'm going for healthy pasta, I'll always go for Barilla Plus.
If you're near a The Fresh Market, I really like their store brand Italian-made dried pasta. Though I'll note that it can be more expensive than the big national brands.
I've also had good experiences with Target's Archer Farms level of dried pasta, though it's somewhat limited in terms of size & shape.
re: beachmouse
<I've also had good experiences with Target's Archer Farms level of dried pasta>
Really? I have seen them all the time, but never tried them. No, I don't think I am near a The Fresh Market.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Hey there, ChemicalK -- you're near Philly, aren't you? We've got The Fresh Market in Glen Mills.
re: CindyJ
We do? Thanks. Apparently, I don't as much as I should.
re: beachmouse
It's interesting how often I hear the Target Archer Farms brand extolled in its various forms. I even have a "Super Target" nearby, but for some reason I just almost never go there. But that place does seem to do supermarketing well. Should be better known for it.
Used to buy DeCecco but now buy Giuseppe Cocco.
It's more expensive , in fact almost twice the price but it's worth it for the quality.
re: Gastronomos
Is it good?
re: linguafood
I enjoy it as I find that barilla is not the same quality it was before and ronzoni is a hit or miss. Trader Joes has a cinnamon aroma to it and I find it flavorful and it cooks up al dente every time. It is sturdy enough for most sauces and applications. I often finish my pasta in a pan of sauce, so a sturdy pasta is crucial. Otherwise it disintegrates and is awful. Trader Joes holds up nicely. And it's 99 cents.
re: Gastronomos
Cinnamon aroma??? Huh. Not necessarily what I'd want in my dry pasta, save for maybe with a bolognese.
And I *always* finish my pasta in the sauce.
re: Gastronomos
I would be pretty damn surprised to find my pasta smelling of cinnamon. Surprised as in marching back to the store.
re: Gastronomos
I like some of TJs pasta (generally the filled) but have stopped buying plain pasta because of this flavor. It seems more of a nutmeg background flavor to me and can be very off-putting, depending on your sauce.
I haven't been eating much pasta lately but will be jotting down everyone's recommendations. I have a very limited selection of pasta here in west TN but have seen De Cecco. Food is probably the biggest challenge here.....*sigh*
re: Dee S
I just Googled "pasta tastes" and the first thing that came up was "cinnamon".
Apparently, most people do not like this and TJ's ain't the only place according to many websites.
I assume that if cooked in almost any non-Italian way (boiled to death in unsalted water) the cinnamon aroma would go away. I will not be trying that soon. I don't find the aroma off-putting as many do. I can easily work with it in any recipe. I also boil 1Lb of pasta in 1Gallon of heavily salted water. 2Lbs, 2 pots, each with 1Gallon of heavily salted water.
Bland pasta is more of an issue. There is nothing I can do with flavorless pasta. And I am gulity of occassionally eating a forkfull or two of pasta straight outta the boiling (salted) water, just to be sure I know what to do with my sauce. If the pasta itself is flavorless... I'm stuck.
re: Gastronomos
I salt my water until it tastes like the sea, use a proper ratio (don't crowd) and cook al dente. There is no aroma for me; it's a clear and distinct flavor. It doesn't go away when cooked. That's why I don't buy TJs unfilled pasta any more.
TJs is the only brand of pasta that I've had that issue with. Maybe they have a stronger smell/taste than others.
I should just make my own and call it done! One day.....I know it's easy but pasta intimidates me!
My go-to brand for everyday pasta -- linguini, spaghetti, etc. is Barilla. I like Barilla and find nothing wrong with it. It cooks up al dente and once it's sauced I doubt that anyone could tell the difference between that and a more expensive imported brand.
Of the "specialty" pastas I have in my pantry right now, there's Garofalo (calamarata), Gerardo di Nola (fiori cinque colori) and Piemonteiss (trofiette).
I don't used boxed pasta-can't stand the taste of cardboard. My absolute favorite dried pasta is PASTENE brand from Massachusetts. They were one of the earliest importers from Italy and have kept the quality at a high standard.
It can be bought on line if not available in you area. Their wensite has a store locator as well.
re: bagelman01
Tip: you're supposed to take the pasta out of the box before cooking it.
re: GH1618
Don't give up your day job....you won't make it as a comedian.
re: bagelman01
I don't know. It is pretty funny to me. :)
re: GH1618
Thanks. This also explains that plastic taste I get with some other brands. :)
Rustichella D'abruzzo is my absolute favorite. Unfortunately, it's expensive and requires a special trip many miles from my usual grocery store. My go to mass market pasta is De Cecco. I've tried Barilla on a couple occasions and have not been impressed.
De Cecco of course because it's everywhere now thank goodness.
One brand you guys must try is Archer's farm pasta made by Target....I know some of you may be cratching your head but trust me and try the brand. better than De Cecco and any other gourmet brands i have used. and actaually it's not cheap either at around $2.99
re: Monica
Hmm ... intriguing. I wonder who actually makes it.
re: foiegras
that's a good question. I should check when I get home. I know it is imported from Italy.
Cipriani is great if you can find it:
Amusingly priced.
I like de Cecco as well, and Lidia's brand is pretty good too (though significantly different). I will branch out if I have to for a shape I can't get from these brands, but ... these are the best (of what's easily available to me).
PS Pasta is cheap, you don't need to get it on sale.
re: foiegras
Lidia's pasta was on sale for $1.79 at my local supermarket. not too many varieties though.
America's tastiest kitchen did a tastint test of dry pasta last night on tv. De cecco won but I was surprised to hear that Ronzoni was their favorite until De cecco took the first place recently. I haven't tried Ronzoni since I was growing up in my mom's house so I forgot how it tasted it like and as a kid, I didn't care what pasta brand I was eating.
re: Monica
I'm not surprised by Ronzoni coming in ahead in taste tests. Like you, growing up was Ronzoni.
Now I think Ronzoni has upped the pasta they make. They have to keep up in the market. It is inconsistent though. But generally good.
re: Gastronomos
According to America's kitchen, any pasta that uses durum flour isn't going to be that good..Ronzoni is one of them. Durum flour is cheaper than semolina flour according to them.
re: Monica
Durum is a type of wheat. Semolina is a type of flour made from durum wheat. According to Marcella Hazan:
"... semolina, which is milled from durum, the strongest of wheats. ... It is the only suitable flour for industrially produced pasta, ..." (from Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking)
re: GH1618
Yes, what are they talking about? If they were using the Italian terminology, farina versus semolino, they might make sense (maybe), but it is all durum wheat flour, the only wheat suitable for industrial pasta, as Marcella says. In fact, in Italy even egg pastas that would normally be made with farina di grano tenero (soft wheat) must by law be made of durum when industrially produced. The only difference between semolino (the Italian term) and farina is that farina is ground more finely. Any industrial pasta not made entirely of durum wheat will not cook properly al dente and Italians wouldn't eat it, or sell it. There are stories about some small manufacturers adding a little grano tenero so the water gets extra starchy, but I don't know anything about that. Officially it's all durum wheat, grano duro.
Barilla. They have some of the tastiest recipes on the box. Makes for an easy shopping experience.
Okay... so I'm slow on the uptake. I JUST read that other Barilla thread (or part of it -- it's a tome). So avoiding Barilla pasta has NOTHING to do with its quality. Well, count me among the former buyers.
Maltagliati brand is my current favorite. I used to get Ronzoni when I lived on the east coast, and continued to buy it here in Seattle until Safeway stopped carrying all but the lasagna noodles. I still think Maltagliati wins on flavor over Ronzoni, De Cecco, Garofolo, Barilla, Mueller and of course the usual supermarket brands like Safeway Select and Eating Right. Fortunately, there's a store called Big John's PFI here that carries quite a few different Maltagliati pasta forms. Another plus is they sell it for about $2 a pound.
re: nokamoto
If you live in Seattle, you should check out what kaleo mentions upthread:
re: Bada Bing
Well, much as I'd love to try Il Corvo Pasta, those hours (M-F, lunch only) come off as irritating and elitist unless one already works downtown - which I don't. Maybe someday I'll find myself nearby during the work week at lunchtime with no plans, though that's never happened in the 17 years I've lived in Seattle.
re: nokamoto
It's a small operation. Maybe they sell some locally? I find it hard to empathize with your sense of great inconvenience when I'm 2000 miles away from it myself. Maybe they're open on President's Day? Maybe your plans could incorporate a visit?
re: GraydonCarter
If that's a brand, not sure, but I have had artichoke pasta at a vegan restaurant. It left me ... unimpressed.
I love bucatini pasta, especially with my favorite dish, all'amatriciana, but it is really hard to find around here. I used to stock up on Barilla pasta whenever it went on sale, but I'm not buying it anymore, and the only other options are Mueller's, Ronzoni, and Publix store brand. None of them make bucatini, or if Barilla does, Publix never stocked it here.
Anyway, I recently found Garofalo bucatini at Fresh Market and tried it (and not just because I spent most of my teens and twenties with a huge crush on Janeane Garofalo). It was very good quality, but more expensive than I'm used to paying for dry pasta. Fresh Market also carries De Cecco (our Publix doesn't), but Garofalo was actually a little cheaper.
Target carries Giada DeLaurentiis' pasta brand, and she has bucatini in the same price range as De Cecco and Garofalo at Fresh Market. How is Giada's pasta, compared to all the others?
re: Big Bad Voodoo Lou
I have tried Giada's bucatini from Target and it was good. better than other national brands. Try the Archer's farm's spagetti next time you go to Target. Wonderful really delicious pasta...the sauce literally binds to the pasta really wonderfully...
re: Monica
I'm a huge fan of Archer Farms products in general, especially the potato and tortilla chips, the salsas, and some of the condiments. Never tried their pastas, but I will when I finally use up all the Barilla stockpiled in my pantry.
It looks like a lot of the Archer Farms stuff is being rebranded into something else, with generic-looking blue packaging and a forgettable name that suggests they're wholesome or healthy or something.
re: Big Bad Voodoo Lou
I like Archer Farms nuts.
I'm an absolute clunk when it comes to boiling spaghetti—it NEVER comes out right (gummy exterior, undercooked interior), so I've always bought vermicelli instead which ALWAYS comes out right, al dente throughout.
For years my go-to brand was Golden Grain, but my Safeway stopped carrying their vermicelli, so I read this thread for recommendations.
I tried Barilla, but whatever it is that makes the cooked product act in the way it does in that commercial where it doesn't break during the kiss, seems off-putting to me texture-wise.
After some trial and error, my new favorite brand is: Safeway's house brand. It even comes in vermicelli. Yey!

Patriots confirm addition of WR Quentin Sims to practice squad
|09.02.13 at 2:12 pm ET
FOXBORO — The Patriots confirmed Monday afternoon the signing of rookie WR Quentin Sims to the practice squad. Sims joined the Patriots as a rookie free agent on July 19 and was released by the team on Aug. 31. The move was first reported by Jeff Howe of the Boston Herald on Sunday evening.
Sims, 23, played two seasons at Georgia Tech (2009-10) before transferring to Tennessee-Martin in 2011. The 6-foot-3, 202-pounder had 86 receptions for 1,092 yards and 16 touchdowns last season.
Sims had four catches for 86 yards and two touchdowns in four preseason games. He caught a pair of TDs from Tim Tebow in the preseason finale against the Giants last Thursday, including a 52-yard grab on an in-cut route in the fourth quarter.

Today we are taking a look at a brand new video card from Sapphire. We have been hearing about the Radeon 7790 over the past few weeks and earlier this year AMD said we would see an HD 8000 series towards the end of the year and they would be refreshing their HD 7000 lineup with new chips. The HD 7790 is the first card that is part of this refresh, based on the brand new "Bonaire" 28nm graphics processor. The Bonaire graphics processor is based off of AMD's graphics core next (GCN) architecture and features 896 stream processors. We are looking at Sapphire's version, which is the HD 7790 OC with Dual-X. The Dual-X is for Sapphire's own unique cooling system on the card. This card features a 1075MHz core clock, 1GB of GDDR5 memory and has dual DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort connections. This card is setup to compete directly with Nvidia's GTX 650 Ti. Read on as we take a look…
Nov 20, 2012 Bob Buskirk Reviews, Video Cards 10
Back in August NVIDIA released the GTX 660 Ti, which came in around the $300 price range. Performance on the card was great, but not everyone has $300 to spend on a video card. So NVIDIA released the GTX 660, which hits your wallet around $200-$250, but still offers great performance and lower power consumption. Today we are checking out one of ASUS's GTX 660 variants, the GeForce GTX 660 DirectCU II OC Edition. This card features ASUS's DirectCU II cooling, which ASUS says provides 20% better cooling performance than a stock cooler. This is also the Overclocked (OC) edition of the card. That means the GPU clock is set to 1020 MHz (1085 MHz boost clock) over the stock settings of 980 MHz. You also get ASUS's DIGI+VRM power delivery design which enhances power efficiency by 15% and minimizes power noise by 30%. Are you in the market for a GTX 660? Is this the one for you? Read on to find out!

Ah I am back to reviewing video cards, it has actually been a little while since I've taken a look at a current generation card, but over the past couple of weeks I have caught back up and today I am taking a look at an awesome card from ASUS. Many of ASUS's non-reference cards feature their DirectCU II cooling system and so does this card, but this card also features a 12-phase VRM that has super alloy caps and chokes, ASUS's VGA hotwire that allows you to easily check voltages on the card and this single card can drive up to six screens! The card we are taking a look at today is the 28nm ASUS HD 7970 DirectCU II 3GB! Read on as we take a look at this impressive card!
Sep 16, 2012 Bob Buskirk Reviews, Video Cards 3
ASUS has already made a name for themselves as the top motherboard manufacturer for quite some time now, but they are really making a name for themselves in the graphics card market as well. Their specialized cards use quality components, come with better cooling than the reference design and even sometimes are overclocked. The card we are looking at today is no different. ASUS's GeForce GTX 560 Ti DirectCU II TOP comes factory overclocked up to 900MHz, uses ASUS's own DirectCU II cooler and features a super alloy design on the power components. Let's take a look at this card and see what it can do!
Aug 26, 2012 Adam Wilson Featured, Reviews, Video Cards 3
Getting put through its paces today is the Inno3d iChiLL Black Edition GTX 680, with 4GB of GDDR5 memory. It is factory overclocked to 1120 Mhz, and has an aftermarket hybrid liquid / air cooler attached. The cooler itself is manufactured by Asetek, branded by Arctic, and then partnered with the inno3d card. Claiming to be virtually silent whilst many times more efficient than the reference cooler. If all goes well this card should be quite the performer. Follow us through the review as we benchmark, overclock, and generally beat the card into submission to reach our conclusion.

AMD's 7000 series is made up of 3 segments. Starting with the flagship 7900 which are the high-end cards. Then we have the 7700 series which has budget gamers in mind. Finally we have the 7800 series which sits right in the middle to hit the sweet spot between cost and performance. The 7800 series has 2 cards the 7850 and the 7870, today we are taking a look at the 7850. Not just any 7850 though, the 7850 Overclocked Edition from Sapphire. This card really makes the sweet spot even sweeter with a factory overclock moving the core up to 920MHz and the memory up to 1250MHz. Sapphire has also added their popular Dual-X cooler for better cooling performance. Read on to see what this card is all about.

AMD's Eyefinity Technology, have you heard of it? I'm sure you have, it's what powers those multi-display setups that you've seen before. These multi-display setups give you massive desktop work-spaces and immersive gaming environments. The thing about getting Eyefinity setup is it can be difficult and confusing, especially if you don't have the right displays off the bat. To make things easier Sapphire has come out with the FleX series of cards. Each FleX card allows you to plug in and run 3 monitors simultaneously from a single card. Today we will be taking a look at their low-cost solution the Radeon HD6450 FleX Edition.

With the recent release of DiRT 3 AMD announced that it would be packing the game with select video cards. Of course Sapphire's Radeon HD 6950 was one of those cards. From a technical standpoint the Radeon HD 6950 is basically the same card as the original card we reviewed back in December, except Sapphire has improved the cooling solution. They have increased the size of the cooling surface, added 5 copper heatpipes, and finally added a second fan. All of this plus the free game makes this the definite choice when it comes to deciding which Radeon HD 6950 to get. Read on to check out our review!

Today we will be taking a look at a $100 video card that sits between the Barts and Turks chipsets from AMD. This of course fills the gap between the two and makes for a good lower to mid-range card that will get you in to the DirectX 11 game and provide you with some great features. The card I am talking about is the Radeon HD 6750. The card we received from Sapphire is identical to the reference AMD version so it has a core clock of 700 MHz, memory clock of 1150 MHz, 720 stream processors, and support for up to 5 displays. Let's check it out!

The GeForce GTS 450 has been around for quite sometime and many people don't even think about it when they are purchasing a new video card. You have to think though, it does offer substantial performance for little investment, so you can spend most of your cash on other items in your build. Yes of course there are reference GTS 450 cards, but we are more interested in what comes a few months after launch. ASUS has sent us their ENGTS450 DirectCU OC card, which has ASUS's custom heatsink and is overclocked up to 850 MHz. Let's take a look…

Chapter 110, Sexual Exploitation and Other Abuse of Children. 18
U.S.C. § 2256 defines "Child pornography" as:
"any visual depiction, including any photograph, film, video,
picture, or computer or computer-generated image or picture, whether
made or produced by electronic, mechanical, or other means, of
sexually explicit conduct, where -
(A) the production of such visual depiction involves the use of a
minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct;
(B) such visual depiction is, or appears to be, of a minor engaging
in sexually explicit conduct;
(C) such visual depiction has been created, adapted, or modified to
appear that an identifiable minor is engaging in sexually explicit
conduct; or
(D) such visual depiction is advertised, promoted, presented,
described, or distributed in such a manner that conveys the
impression that the material is or contains a visual depiction of a
minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct . . ."
Of which I think that the subsections would cover adults who are
dressed or made up to appear as children/minors.
But in general I agree with you that it could have a chilling effect
on what is otherwise nomilly legal and protected porn.

Real Salt Lake: Chris Wingert, RSL's expert note-taker
Sandy • There's a system in which it's done. It's throwback, no doubt, because Chris Wingert can't help but chuckle when he explains his approach to furthering his preparation for each day and upcoming match.
He takes notes.
For the longest time, it was, indeed, in a notebook he carried around with him littered with scribbles of scouting reports, tendencies and crucial can't-miss information about the next opponent.
Times have changed a smidge. Wingert's cerebral method has translated to endless amounts of note-taking on his smartphone. When he sees something he can't forget — or shouldn't forget — it's typed and recorded. It's all about staying one step ahead in a position where one needs to. If not, the end result of 90 minutes can flip — and quick.
RSL at L.A. GalaxyAt StubHub Center, Carson, Calif.
Kickoff » Saturday, 8:30 p.m.
TV » CW30. Radio » 700 AM
Records » RSL 7-3-7; L.A. 5-3-6
Last meeting » RSL 1, L.A. 1 (March 22)
About RSL » The return of Kyle Beckerman and Nick Rimando from Brazil provided a boost in RSL's first win since May 17 last Friday over the New England Revolution. … Forward Robbie Findley and midfielder Sebastian Velasquez remain doubtful for L.A. with respective injuries, while midfielder Ned Grabavoy is questionable. … This will be the last time the two Western Conference squads meet in the regular season, which could hold playoff implications down the line. …. RSL is 1-0-1 against the Galaxy this year. … RSL sits in second place in the league and Western Conference with 28 points, seven behind league-leading Seattle.
About L.A. » World Cup defender Omar Gonzalez remains a question mark to start against RSL Saturday as he still works through an ankle injury suffered in Brazil. … The Galaxy are unbeaten in their last six league matches and have played only 14 matches (21 points). … Robbie Keane leads the club with seven goals and four assists, while Landon Donovan has three goals and four assists this season.
"You can try and keep it simple, so you can focus on let's say five bullet points, or there's sometimes when I feel like it needs to be more in depth," said Real Salt Lake's left back. "I still have a calendar at home where I'm writing things down I need to do every day."
Entering his eighth year with RSL and 11th in Major League Soccer, the Long Island-born defender has established an imprint on the club and league by reading the game. In forecasting what move by a Landon Donovan or Clint Dempsey comes next, Wingert's studies prepare him to face off against MLS' dynamic attackers. Admittedly, he concedes "speed has never really been my thing," so it's been up to him to dissect angles on speedsters and goal-scorers.
"Chris is incredibly intelligent in that," RSL coach Jeff Cassar said.
"You have to be, positionally, a little smarter and soccer-wise a little bit smarter," added right back Tony Beltran. "Chris is a great example of that. He uses his brain tremendously and he's able to shut down opponents that way."
It helps that he's played every position on the field — forward and goalkeeper notwithstanding — at some point in his professional career, so the ins and outs of all the moving parts are somewhat familiar to Wingert. During his first two years in Columbus, he was on the left side of the midfield and eventually shifted to outside back once he made it to Colorado. It's where he transitioned to in college, but truth is, "I actually don't like playing defense," Wingert said, smiling. "I'd much rather play midfield."
The summer of 2007 presented more than just positioning and tactics. His time in Colorado was over with and he was being courted both by the L.A. Galaxy — who RSL faces Saturday night in Southern California — and RSL, at the time one of the league's bottom feeders. Wingert's best friend, Kyle Martino, urged him to inch toward L.A. The Galaxy had a gaping hole on their back line after Chris Albright tore his ACL that summer. A bidding war began between a club that had penned superstar David Beckham to a ground-breaking signing and lowly RSL.
Wingert chose RSL. Three days later, close friend Kyle Beckerman was traded to RSL. Wingert recalled sitting in a motel in Sugar House that summer when Martino phoned and said the Galaxy were bouncing around L.A. with Beckham's welcome jubilees. At the time, the decision could've been questioned.
All that eventually faded. Beckham and Donovan and a select few survived that era of the Galaxy, but Wingert's choice solidified the beginning of the turnaround of a franchise that won an MLS Cup title two years later and has been a playoff regular six years running.
"That's good enough," Wingert said. "Don't get me wrong. I'm not satisfied with not winning again before I leave. I'm working my but off every day so we can have another chance at that. But I think I've been around long enough to appreciate what we've had here. And I just don't mean the success, I mean everything. The difference between us having this incredible stadium and locker room as opposed to when I first came here."
Beltran calls Wingert a "model for any perspective player coming into this league," noting that more than his ability on the field he's one of the more engaging and personable locker room minds the club has. Unlike some professional athletes who enjoy their privacy, Wingert's out in the public sphere at nearly every possible turn. Once the boots are put away for good, some have said they wouldn't be surprised to see Wingert make a seamless transition to broadcasting.
The 32-year-old said he's up for anything when the time comes, but he's not there yet.
"I'll always look back on my time here as a really, really special time," Wingert said. "But I would love to bring one more [title] and say that we're a [San Antonio] Spurs-like MLS organization."
