Released: Aug 21st, 2007
Running Time: 134
Director: Brother Love
Company: Digital Sin
Cast: Tika Tarius, Savannah Stern, Bobbi Starr, Kiara Marie, Shane Diesel, Brooke Scott
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
Cudos to Savannah Stern for her physical ability to engulf, to the hilt, the massive size of Shane Diesel. Her portrayal of the frustrated, bored housewife in this interracial suburban sexual expedition works quite well.
The best part is Brooke Scott, who, tongue-in-cheek, plays a hooker working Diesel's driveway. She gives him attitude, then gives him head, and finishes with the happy realization that size does, indeed matter — providing it spends time deep inside her.
Retailing: Interracial with big boy Shane Diesel stuffing his large meat into small openings.

Tip of the Day
Using text shortcuts in iOS 5
If you're a user of TextExpander on the Mac or iOS, you should be well-acquainted with the idea of typing a brief shortcut to get a large mass of text. For everyone else, iOS 5 now offers something similar, baked right into the OS and ready for use in any application. To get started, simply open the Settings app, tap on General, then scroll down and tap on Keyboard. At the bottom of that page you'll see a section labeled "Shortcuts", with the built in "omw" for "On my way!" shortcut listed, and an option to add new shortcuts. Tap this option and make as many as you'd like—just remember to use letter combinations that aren't all that common. Once you're finished, you can use the shortcuts in any app, anywhere you can type—the completed phrase will appear just like a spelling suggestion, meaning it takes only a tap of the space bar to complete, and can therefore save a lot of time and frustration.

In the multistage reliability growth tests with instant and delayed fix modes, the failure data can be assumed to follow Weibull processes with different parameters at different stages. For the Weibull process within a stage, by the proper selection of prior distribution form and the parameters, a concise posterior distribution form is obtained, thus simplifying the Bayesian analysis. In the multistage tests, the improvement factor is used to convert the posterior of one stage to the prior of the subsequent stage. The conversion criterion is carefully analyzed to determine the distribution parameters of the subsequent stage's variable reasonably. Based on the mentioned results, a new synthetic Bayesian evaluation program and algorithm framework is put forward to evaluate the multistage reliability growth tests with instant and delayed fix modes. The example shows the effectiveness and flexibility of this method.

David Newton (2:02 PM)
This just in. I am replacing Brett Favre at Minnesota and am moving the Vikings to Atlanta Motor Speedway to help replace the lost Cup date. Anything else you want to talk about? Fire away.
Cody (NE)
Hey David, I read about the potential of RCR expanding to four Cup teams. Elliot Sadler showed he has the skill to win on Saturday (while driving for Harvick's Truck team). What are the chances he gets the fourth seat?
David Newton (2:02 PM)
Not likely. This is all sponsor driven. What I am hearing is that Paul Menard and his dad's company, Menard's, would move into that fourth team. If that doesn't work out I don't see anything happening.
Chris Fiegler (Latham,NY)
What will be the race distance for the Kentucky NASCAR Sprint Cup Race in 2011?
David Newton (2:03 PM)
Hope no more than 400 miles. What would you like?
Chris Fiegler (Latham,NY)
I am Just Curious is Johanna Long Related to Carl Long?
David Newton (2:03 PM)
No idea. Check his geneology tree.
Drew (Bloomington, IN)
Hey David, this is pure speculation, but ever since the announcement of Sam Hornish's uncertain future in NASCAR, rumors have been floating around the IndyCar paddock that he might return to his old open-wheel team, Panther Racing. Their current driver, Dan Wheldon, has expressed interest in NASCAR in the past. If Hornish were indeed to take his spot at Panther, could Wheldon pursue a seat in NASCAR?
David Newton (2:04 PM)
Don't see that one happening. I know Hornish wants to stay in NASCAR and Roger Penske is pretty loyal to him. Wouldn't surprise me to see Hornish get one more year.
Chris Fiegler (Latham,NY)
Who do you think will win the Zippo 200 at Watkins Glen & The Helvua Goods dippings at The Glen?
David Newton (2:05 PM)
Kyle Busch and Juan Pablo Montoya. Kyle wins all the Nationwide races. Haven't you figured that out?
Nicholas Rolando (Orlando)
David, what's the line-up looking like for RPM with drivers/sponsor next year? They have good cars and the relationship with Roush, so I'm not sure what's so bad.
David Newton (2:06 PM)
Right now they have AJ in the 43, Ambrose appears headed for the 9 or 19. Stanley is the only sponsor secured, but it's not a full year. Best Buy likely will stay with AJ though. After that it's anybody's guess. Will Menard stay or go to RCR? Stay tuned.
jesse (iowa)
will your chat be on thursday for now on????????
David Newton (2:07 PM)
It's fluid. What day would you like me to chat on most? I could do it every day if they'd let me. Or if you guys wanted me to.
Rick (Philly)
David - The 48 team has always been the poster child for adjusting their car during the race. Lately , though, they are great in qualifying, practice and the first half of the race but seem to be missing it at the end. Are they just experimenting or has the bloom come off the rose?
David Newton (2:08 PM)
Good question. Last week they just weren't the same when the track cooled. Very unlike Knaus not to make that adjustment, particularly in a race of that length. Too early to tell if this trend will continue into the Chase, but a lot of teams are hoping it will. Fans too apparently.
Drew (Philly)
Is Bud to Harvick annouced this weekend at the glen?
David Newton (2:08 PM)
Was told they have a few loose ends to tie up and it may not come for another week, or two. But it's gonna happen. This Bud's for you.
PJ (Cary, NC)
Hey Newton, are we going to see Justin Algaier run some Cup races later this season?
David Newton (2:09 PM)
Haven't heard anything yet. Most believe he needs to keep getting experience in Nationwide, not to rush it.
Chris (Waktins Glen)
Looking Back, was it a good idea to replace Tony Jr? Semms like the problem to me was losing chief engineer Darian Grubb to Smoke. Lance was in R&D and never worked on a cot before. If they make another change it should be Ron Malec, Pops, or a return to Tony Jr after Daytona. My guess would be to try out Malec, Mr. H is lucky Penske didn't offer him the chance to crew chief Brad K. and he's been ready since about 2007 to leave Jimmie and Chad and become a crew chief.
David Newton (2:10 PM)
I won't say it was a mistake, but losing Grubb was a big blow for that organization as a whole. Probably the best hire Stewart made. As for Junior's future crew chief, let's see if he makes the Chase. If he doesn't can't imagine there won't be a change.
Kevin (West Chester, PA)
Montreal or Iowa deserves a cup date before Kentucky. My suggestion is replace Californa's second date with Montreal and swap the date with the Glen, putting a road course and bot a new road course in the chase.
David Newton (2:12 PM)
Like the way you think, but NASCAR won't give the entire LA market away. I suspect one day we'll see a Cup race at Iowa. I just hope they don't try to expand to 100,000. Keep it reasonable and keep interest.
Todd (Ga)
If Dale Jr doesnt make the chase this year (which looks to be the case) what changes, if any do you see happening with that 88 team?
David Newton (2:13 PM)
Maybe it's time to leave it alone. Every time you change there is an adjustment period. Maybe the best thing is to leave all as it is and prepare for next year.
Den (at work)
What are Ganassi's options for the 42 team? There is clearly some issues that need to be resolved. Big Montoya fan and am just tired of seeing this car run up front every week and not be able to finish. I know Pattie is good I just feel like the Chemistry is not there. It is a perfect time now for change if needed for 2011. What do you think?
David Newton (2:13 PM)
Montoya and Pattie were colorful at Pocono. I loved the "screw you" comment. But those two are just fine I'm told and there are no plans to break up. They feed off each other that way. It's just been a frustrating season.
Chad (Illinois)
What do the drivers think of the schedule and constant 1.5 to 2 mile tracks? Do they care or think there should be more of a variety of tracks on the circuit?
David Newton (2:14 PM)
Most like variety.
Brad (NH)
So - We now have the ATL losing a race and KY going in July. Does this mean Homestead in March, KY in July, with NH losing a race and Vegas slides into the 36 race of the year?
David Newton (2:15 PM)
Homestead is staying where it is. Kentucky will be in July. Don't see New Hampshire losing a race and Vegas getting another. Definitely not at the end of the season. Been assured that. But there will be some shuffles. Texas may get a new date that doesn't conflict with hunting season.
Brian (North Carolina)
As a big Brad Keselowski fan,do you think he's going to hold on to the points lead and be hoisting the Nationwide Series trophy in Homestead at the end of the season?And if so,can you put into words how big that would be for Penske racing to finally get a NASCAR championship?It would be Brad's first as a driver,Paul Wolfe's first as a crew chief and Roger's first as an owner.That's huge!
David Newton (2:16 PM)
I do, and it would be a big step for Penske. A championship in any of the top two series is a boost. Still would love to see Kyle Busch enter the rest of the races and make a run at it.
Larry (Shock II)
Hey Newt, The 88 is constantly slow during 1st practices. Is this Jr's fault or is the car not being prepared at the shop correctly. There is no way the 88 should be 35th to 43rd after first practice.
David Newton (2:17 PM)
You're right. Most drivers will tell you that their best weekends are best when they unload fast. Not sure why this isn't happening with the 88 cause the 48 and 24 are fast every weekend it seems. Maybe the driver?
Jake (Irving, TX)
If on track retaliation is not a reality due to points, sponsors etc. what is the point of Kurt getting mad at Johnson and Joey ticked off at Harvick and JP, Turex, Sadler vowing to get even with Gordon?
David Newton (2:17 PM)
The point is that in the heat of battle when things go bad and somebody else is the cause of it somebody gets mad. Happens at your office too, I bet.
David Newton (2:17 PM)
Juan Pablo Montoya.
Why is Ed Hinton so anti-Junior. His comments last night on Nascar Now were just depressing. If he has kids of his own I hope he's more encouraging with them.
David Newton (2:18 PM)
Funny. Missed the show but Hinton doesn't hate Junior. He just has his opinion and is sticking to it. Can't fault him for that.
Barry Buffington (Kannapolis)
David, What do you think the future holds for Dale Jr, seeing how he appears so unhappy with his race team?
David Newton (2:19 PM)
I'm not sure he's unhappy with his team. He's just unhappy with the performance. A lot of drivers are in the same boat.
Greg (NY)
Where will Martin be next year?? Thought 4th at RCR makes alot of sense. Maybe the #78?
David Newton (2:19 PM)
Don't see him going to RCR. Why would Hendrick want to help the competition? Would take some of the heat off Jeff Burton being the senior spokesperson over there, though.
new jersey (new jersey)
ok david, mcgee, hinton and blount did not post my comment this week and i hope you will since you always do. i had a comment on the fake debris caution on lap 120 at pocono (just when dale jr got lapped). i told my dad when the caution came out that everyone will forget about this because something big will happen at the end of the race to distract them. the big thing this week was sadlers crash. my point is nascar attempt at trying to make the race more "exciting" could of hurt elliot sadler, and nascar need to realize that fake debris cautions arent wanted. and if this debris caution was real then all tv networks should make sure they catch the safety truck picking up the debris
David Newton (2:20 PM)
I never saw the debris, but have to believe something was there, particularly after NASCAR penalized Hamlin for blasting them on fake debris. I do know this, NASCAR is all about safety and if they think there may be something on the track that could cause harm they will throw the caution.
Greg (VA via CA)
Good afternoon David, where and when do you think Denny will get his next win?
David Newton (2:21 PM)
Tracy (CT)
With Kentucky probably getting ATLs date...is Louden safe? Or are we going to loose a date to boring Vegas?
David Newton (2:21 PM)
No probably to it. Press conference on Tuesday. Loudon appears to be safe. Don't anticipate Vegas getting a second date at this point.
Cody (Nebraska)
If Gordon does pick up Wal Mart as a sponsor could we see WalMart in flames, or would the paint scheme change? White and blue flames would look sharp..
David Newton (2:22 PM)
Haven't thought ahead to paint schemes, but I'm hearing maybe AllState more than WalMart. The deal with WalMart I'm told has more to do with NASCAR and a way to push diecasts and souvenirs instead of Motosports Authentics.
JESSE (iowa)
who do you think will win sunday at the glen
David Newton (2:22 PM)
Same person I said earlier in the chat. Sorry, couldn't help but be a smarty pants there.
JESSE (iowa)
is possible vegas gets a 2nd race in 2011
David Newton (2:23 PM)
Don't think so at this point.
Marcus (VA)
Do you think that it is fair to place all blame on Dale Jr before we get a chance to see what he could do with a proven Crew Chief? One major argument is that the common denominator over the past 5 years of struggling is Dale Jr. The part that doesn't get discussed is that the other common denominator over the last 5 years is the Crew Chief's Resume's are subpar. I believe Tony Jr has 2 career wins (all with Jr). Pete Rondeu has 0. Lance McGrew has 1 (at Talladega). Steve Hmiel probably is the only guy Jr has worked with that had prior success. That is why I feel Jr Nation is warranted to feel that Jr has been given the short end of the stick when it comes to personnel over the years. Would love to hear your opinion Dave. Thanks.
David Newton (2:24 PM)
Proven? He's had proven. And what is proven exactly. Steve Letarte has done pretty well with Gordon. Knaus wasn't proven when he went to Jimmie Johnson. You can't put this all on the crew chief.
kevin (new jersey)
any chance reed sorenson goes back to rpm
David Newton (2:24 PM)
Not unless he really shows his stuff in the 83 down the stretch. Just haven't heard anything on that.
Rick (Philly)
So the dominoes are starting to fall on the schedule. Who gets the march race from ATL and where does Vegas fit in for a second race?
David Newton (2:25 PM)
Not sure what will happen to the Atlanta date. Maybe the open date will just be shuffled to fill it. Maybe Texas will go a week or so later. As for Vegas, don't see second happening.
JD (Boston)
Pocono reaaly made a nice investment into solar panels ($16 million?)...but shopuld they have i,proved inside the track walls more first...
David Newton (2:25 PM)
Tim Balmer (Clarksville,In)
dan weldon to chip ganassi?..
David Newton (2:25 PM)
Not seeing that one.
John (New Hampshire)
What about NHMS? Do you think they're safe for 2011?
David Newton (2:26 PM)
Seems so.
kevin (new jersey)
what is your favorite nascar moment
David Newton (2:27 PM)
Chatting with you guys every week. Oh, at the track, Dale Jr. mine goes back to when I was a kid and a Bobby Allison fan and Richard Petty blew up right in front of me. Burned the hairs on my eyebrows. And Allison won. Special. You know Allison fans weren't allowed to cheer for the King.
buddy rutledge (philippnes)
Dave is Jr going to get in the chase
David Newton (2:27 PM)
I've said he would all along, but now I am starting to doubt it.
Adam (Galax, VA)
Besides Kansas, Vegas, and Kentucky, are there any other changes to the schedule being planned?
David Newton (2:28 PM)
Nobody ever said Vegas was a change for sure. Most of the changes center around moving dates around, not changing tracks.
Diane (Los Angeles)
RCR performance is so much better this year it begs an argument that 4 teams spreads their resources too thin to compete. Is Menards money worth the possibility of their becoming mediocre again?
David Newton (2:29 PM)
As RCR said in the story I wrote last weekend the fourth team didn't hurt performance. They found out what hurt performance and it led to restructuring a lot of the organization. And if you remember all four RCR cars were pretty good at the end of last year.
Jimmy (Brockton, MA)
Hi David! Is the current top 12 the chase contenders or, do you see someone slipping in?
David Newton (2:29 PM)
I still see at least Mark Martin slipping in.
Cody (NE)
Is there any chance we'd see any company but Menard's as the primary sponsor of that fourth RCR car?
David Newton (2:29 PM)
Haven't heard anything to make me believe that, although Childress did joke that he could come back in the 3.
Mike (Wofford)
Newt! Any word on what the roster will look like at Red Bull next year? Any word on Phoenix next year? Nice shop they have here, i'd hate to lose our last cup team here in town.
David Newton (2:30 PM)
Red Bull's lineup depends on Vickers. If he returns it'll stay the same. Speed has another deal either signed or agreed to. Yeah, hate to see Spartanburg lose a race team. I went to Wofford you know. How are the Panthers doing there?
JD (Boston)
Does fuel injection bring turbos into play and do they have a place in NASCAR or just Indy?
David Newton (2:31 PM)
Not sure on the turbos, but fuel injuection will be in NASCAR by 2012 I suspect. The plan was 2011 but don't think they are ready for that yet.
I think NASCAR should put Jimmie and Kurt on probation before those two kill each other. This feud has been going on longer than Carl & Brad.
David Newton (2:32 PM)
Getting pretty good, too. Why stop it. Thought you guys wanted feuds.
kevin (new jersey)
kentucky, kansas and vegas. three 1.5 mile tracks, just what the fans wanted
David Newton (2:32 PM)
Sure there is sarcasm there.
Brins (MA)
Any resolution to the Martin/Kahne fiasco. Seems Martin will get jerked around. Couldnt he find a ride for 2 more years say at Petty or Penske.
David Newton (2:33 PM)
Not yet. Starting to wonder if maybe Hendrick is waiting to see if Martin makes the Chase or not.
Tim Balmer (Clarksville,In)
will the total # of cup races stay the same? i think it should be 2-3 less overall, less 2-dates at Pocono-Martinsville...etc.
David Newton (2:33 PM)
Not moving off 36, although I'd like them to shrink to 30.
kevin (new jersey)
do you think RAY GORDON REID will ask you at 2:25 who will win the race
David Newton (2:34 PM)
Doesn't he always?
jesse (ia)
i want you to chat everyday you are espns best nascar reporter/chater
David Newton (2:35 PM)
If you agree please send note to my wonderful boss, K. Lee. Davis. I'd give his email address but he might not like that. Send them to me and I'll forward them.
kevin (new jersey)
i hate comments that talk about how the 48 is struggling lately, they won 2 races in the past 6. im a david ragan fan that is struggling
David Newton (2:35 PM)
You have the right perspective.
Brian (Seattle, WA)
How come a start-and-park ride in the #36 was the best ride Ron Fellows could get for the Glen? With the good runs he's had there in the past why wouldn't a sponsor want to do a one-race deal with him with a top-tier team like JGR or RCR?
David Newton (2:36 PM)
Maybe the 36 plans to go the duration at the Glen. Who knows how those guys think nowadays. I sat and watched the haulers leave the track early on Sunday. They should at least make them stay and sit in traffic with the rest of us.
kevin (new jersey)
dave do you get tired of the same questions being asked every week about dale jr. or harvicks sponsorship
David Newton (2:36 PM)
If that's what's on your mind I don't.
Josh (Huntington, WV)
My favorite NASCAR moment at Atlanta has to be Kevin Harvick beating Gordon by inches in 2001, just three weeks after Big E passed away. I was just 14 and just getting into NASCAR and have been a Harvick fan ever since. Any news on when the announcement of the Great American Lager coming on board the #29 will be? And do you think Paul Menard joining RCR will hurt the success the team has had this year? Seems the team has thrived with just three cars in the stable and struggled in recent years with four cars? Is that the reason RCR has "outsourced" Nationwide racing to KHI?
David Newton (2:37 PM)
I plan to mention that one in the blog I will write as soon as the chat is over. As for Budweiser, not long. They are wrapping up details. I talked about Menard earlier. Give it a look.
Ben (ATL)
Out of these drivers, who is the best fit for the let's say one seat at RPM? (Riggs, Sorenson, Mears, Regan Smith, Blaney)
David Newton (2:38 PM)
I'd honestly go with Regan Smith. Look at what he's done with what he has. Not bad. Nice guy, too. But they're all nice guys. I just think Regan has the most potential at this point.
Cale (Boston)
Boris Said in the Red Bull sounds like a good combination. When's the last time a ringer had that good of a chance to win a Cup race?
David Newton (2:39 PM)
Just check out the road courses. That's about the only time they've had a chance, and truthfully they really don't have much of a chance. The top Cup drivers are pretty good on road courses these days. But I think Boris had a pretty good showing two or three years ago with at least a shot to win.
buddy rutledge (philippines )
hey dave is Jr going to get in the chase
David Newton (2:39 PM)
Maybe. Maybe not. Probably not.
Were you allowed to buy a wooden bear at Pocono this time?
David Newton (2:40 PM)
Had my wife with me and looked at a few, but couldn't sell her on having one on the new back patio. Did enjoy my stay on the lake, though.
Mark (Mount Airy,MD)
Hello David, Have you heard whether there will there be any changes to the Chase schedule for next season?????
David Newton (2:40 PM)
Hearing there could be several changes, but not close to making a decision.
Lyle (Longview, TX)
With KB solid in the chase and ahead of Kurt in points would you say that KB's decision to cut Addington loose and promote Dave was the smart move?
David Newton (2:41 PM)
I have a lot of respect for Addington and what he has done. Think he won 12 races with Kyle. How many has Kyle won since he left? Just saying, it's all about the moment. At the moment Kyle didn't think that combination was working and there was a change. It's working well for Kurt.
Ben (ATL)
Will we see any more short tracks added to the circuit? In my opinion, those tracks put on the best races.
David Newton (2:42 PM)
I wish. Unfortunately there aren't any being built and there's not room for Iowa. I'd love to see Richmond or Bristol move into the Chase, though.
Rick (Philly)
Do you really see JG and Wal-Mart hooking up? The commericals would be comical
David Newton (2:43 PM)
Just doesn't seem to be a good fit. Gordon pays more for a haircut than some Wal-Mart shoppers make in a week.
Lyle (Longview, TX)
Since all the favorites have stopped winning do you figure we might see another first time in 2010 winner at the Glen like maybe Scotty Speed or Robby Gordon?
David Newton (2:43 PM)
Or Marcos Ambrose. Can't see Speed. Maybe Gordon, but that team is struggling.
PJ (Cary, NC)
I'm setting the over/under for Dale Jr. questions during this chat at 19.5. Which side do you want?
David Newton (2:43 PM)
I'll take over. Monitor has inside information.
Tracy (CT)
Why do people complain about Lance having no COT experiance...yet they want Pops back? Pops has no COT experience either people!!!
David Newton (2:44 PM)
Nobody had COT experience four years ago. Ridiculous.
Jason (Virginia)
I've seen people say Dinger staying with RPM is a bad move. What else was out there? History has shown being the 4th car on a top tier team isn't any better than being the top driver on a second tier team.
David Newton (2:44 PM)
He did talk to the folks at Penske, but that didn't work out. RPM in my opinion was his next best option.
Cody (NE)
How are those changes working for the 17 bunch?
David Newton (2:45 PM)
Ryan (Ventura CA)
I know you get a million 88 ?'s but what left to try ..move the 88 into the 48 shop and but the 24 with the 5?
David Newton (2:45 PM)
Actually 2 million 88 questions, but who's counting. Would love to see those shops mix it up, but won't happen. Too much history and success to toy with.
Lyle (Longview, TX)
Los Angeles doesn't have an NFL team so why is it important that it has a Nascar race?
David Newton (2:46 PM)
Good point. It's the market and television audience, at least it is to NASCAR. But the track is like an hour from the city and not well attended. Can't see how that helps unless they race in the Hollywood Bowl.
andres (Lincoln )
has Jpm become nascars biggest choke, hell of a driver but did he make a wrong move from going to open wheel to nascar, he dominated the open wheels and seems tob alright but ends up being a choke at the end is it driver or crew, I am a huge Jpm fan but come on, he is a winner and he isn't winning.
David Newton (2:47 PM)
I wouldn't call him the biggest choke, but he has had trouble finishing off wins on ovals after dominating races. My guess is that once he wins one he'll get a few more in bunches.
jesse (ia)
you know why the heck get rid of an atlanta date? the raceing there is exiting. this sport needs more of that. and i have heard rumors that vegas is getting a 2nd race. i dont get that at all cuz vegas racing is just like fontana long and dull no battles on the track. whats your take on atlanta losing a race and vegas gaining 1 if thats true.
David Newton (2:48 PM)
Atlanta race is more exciting than Vegas and many of the 1.5 mile tracks. And even at 80,000 to 90,000 fans that's more than a lot of tracks have. Still not convinced Vegas will get a date, though.
Barry (Kannapolis)
It seems to me Rick Hendrick is in a real dilemma. I cannot understand why he would commit to Kasey Kahne, without at least plans in place for 2011. I have never known Rick to do something like that before. What do you think was in his mind?
David Newton (2:49 PM)
He had a chance to get a top tier driver to step into a ride in 2012 is what was on his mind. I still believe Rick has a master plan and once he gets sponsors and stars aligned it'll all make sense.
Kirk (Indy)
Do any of the drivers make use of in-car cameras to help with their driving, especially the ones showing their footwork, like baseball players and golfers do for their swings? Thanks.
David Newton (2:50 PM)
I'm sure they study it after and before races, particularly with road courses to pick up things that work for other drivers. It only makes sense.
Nick H. (atlanta, ga)
Im from the ATL... I hate the fact that we have lost a date... Isn't Atlanta the fastest track in NASCAR? Doesn't the track consistantly have the closest finishes of the year? And isn't Atlanta the biggest media market NASCAR races in? I dont get it...
David Newton (2:50 PM)
Yes, yes, biggest sponsor market for sure. I hear ya. It's sad.
buddy rutledge (philippines )
will Jr get in the chase
David Newton (2:51 PM)
Absolutely . . . probably not.
Brad (Crossville, TN)
Do you believe that Roush Fenway Racing is getting everything turned around now and might have a chance to make a run once the chase gets here?
David Newton (2:51 PM)
I do. At least with Biff and Edwards. Look at the past three or four races. They're right there.
Cody (NE)
Tell Brian I said Kurt Busch. ;)
David Newton (2:51 PM)
Got that Brian.
Jason (Virginia)
With all the schedule changes, has Nascar considered running all the Fall races on Saturday night to avoid competing with the NFL for ratings?
David Newton (2:52 PM)
Not really, but I'd like to see it and have said so several times. I'd also like to see a few Thursday night specials in the fall.
curt (trappe md)
With owners complaining about cost why not go back to actually driving true stock cars?
David Newton (2:52 PM)
Because NASCAR mandates they use this one.
Lyle (Longview, TX)
As newer Nascar fans we love the big tracks like Texas that have it all and are easy on traffic, hotels, restaurants, etc. Wouldn't Nascar help sell more tickets by eliminating the old small, hard to find places like Martinville?
David Newton (2:53 PM)
I love the nice hotels and restaurants as much as anybody, trust me. I also love the history and racing and uniqueness of places like Martinsville and Darlington. You can't give it all up.
Jarrell (Houston, TX)
Will Elliott Sadler be starting next year in a Nationwide ride, and be forced to work his way up, much like Reed S . had to?
David Newton (2:54 PM)
If he goes back, I don't see him working back up. I'd like to see the Wood Brothers put him in the 21. Replace one Elliott with another.
James H. (Cornelius, NC)
How many wins do you think Denny will get during the Chase races?
David Newton (2:54 PM)
Hank (Brewer, Me)
The Iowa race was one of the best called races on TV I have seen. The combination of Craven and Evernham were awesome. Best insight on what was going on during the race. Any chance ESPN keeps this combo together?
David Newton (2:56 PM)
I agree, particularly on Ray. His insight is amazing. At one point he predicted Edwards would take the high line on the next lap and Edwards did exactly that. He knows more about the sport than most everybody else combined. Very articulate with no sensor. Craven is solid as well. I don't make those decisions about keeping them together, though.
kevin (new jersey)
ray gordon reid asked a question at 2:25 and it was 2:17 lol classic
David Newton (2:56 PM)
Too funny.
pride4jc1222 (Lumberton, NJ)
Would it surprise you if Kyle Busch left JGR after next season, to ride for Penske and replace Sam Hornish Jr. in the 77?
David Newton (2:57 PM)
Stun me since he has a long-term deal I believe.
John Munith,MI [via mobile]
Can rowdy busch dominate in the sprint like he does in nationwide?
David Newton (2:57 PM)
He started down that path two years ago and never recaptured it. I'm sure he's wondering the same thing.
Nick Rolando (Orlando)
David, you do a great job, keep up the great work! How's your dad doing if I may ask?
David Newton (2:58 PM)
Thanks, and he's doing great. We're all very blessed. Great man.
Tracy (CT)
Tell Lyle to get a GPS. I found Martinsville no problem and had a blast there.
David Newton (2:58 PM)
Lyle, get a GPS. And if you want nice restaurants and hotels for that race, stay in Greensboro. I do and have a blast in the downtown area. Know a few greasy spoons as well.
jesse (iowa)
atlanta losing a race isnt sad.... its totaly stupidity
David Newton (2:59 PM)
jesse (iowa)
yu should get a daily chat and make the nascar fantasy focus once a week cuz there is only ONE RACE A WEEK.
David Newton (2:59 PM)
I'll pass that along to the bossman. His name is K. Lee Davis if you want to send him a note at ESPN. Am I going to get in trouble for this bossman?
David (Wilkes-Barre, PA)
Agree or disagree: Pocono has the most beautiful surroundings in NASCAR
David Newton (3:00 PM)
Cant' think of much prettier. And I do like hanging at Nicks on the Lake.
Diane (Los Angeles)
LA Coliseum isn't being used for much this year (UCLA fan here) maybe they could borrow it for the races - pave the track - have another Bristol. :D Or there's always Irwindale
David Newton (3:01 PM)
Great idea. And on that note, I've got to write a blog on Atlanta losing a race. Thanks for stopping by. Will check Twitter for questions I didn't get to. Until next week.

I stayed here for a few days in early November. Some good things about the hotel:
1) Very easy to get to and from the airport from here.
2) Very easy to get to and from downtown from here.
3) SUPER friendly staff
4) A neat vibe and atmosphere.
5) Clean rooms
6) Cozy beds
7) Reasonably priced
What could have gone a little better:
1) Loud neighbors. From what I heard, there was a wedding reception going on at the hotel, (who reading this hasn't gotten loud at a hotel while having fun during a wedding reception). The bed was cozy, so it wasn't a big bother.
2) The 11th floor hallway smelled a little like smoke, but thankfully our room didn't.

Netflix's new docu-series tackles a fascinating story of a community college that serves as the final stop for dozens of potential superstars.
A Comic-Con 2016 report from the "Creating Universes" panel, featuring Neil deGrasse Tyson, Len Wein, Bill Prady and Peter S. Beagle.
"The Deal" is a thriller about Wall Street insiders, set during an oil crisis a few years in the future. The United States is at war with the "Confederation of Arab States," gas is $6 a gallon and getting more expensive, and there's enormous pressure to find new sources for oil. More than most thrillers, this one seems to be based on expert insights; its author, Ruth Epstein, wrote the screenplay against a background of Wall Street experience, and its view of boardroom politics has a convincing level of detail. It's not in every thriller that you hear, someone say, "Oil is a fungible commodity."
Christian Slater stars as Tom Hanson, an associate with an old-line Wall Street investment firm that has kept its reputation during a period of corporate scandals. That's why the firm is attractive to the giant Condor Corp. and its sleek president Jared Tolson (Robert Loggia, never scarier than when he smiles). Condor wants to merge with Black Star, a privately held Russian oil company that controls massive oil reserves.
We know from the start that the deal is fishy, because at the top of the film a lawyer tells Tolson he can't continue to work on the deal; a few hours later the lawyer is shot dead. Hanson, the Slater character, is brought in as his replacement. His assignment: Perform due diligence to be sure Black Star is sound, and the merger is in the best interests of Condor's shareholders.
The movie surrounds this main story line with several other intersecting strands, of which the most interesting involves young Abbey Gallagher (Selma Blair), a graduate student and "tree hugger" from Harvard who is recruited by Hanson to join his firm on the grounds that she can get a better hearing for her environmental concerns from inside the establishment. Blair does specific things with her character that are interesting; she makes Abbey not one of those Harvard superhumans but a sincere, sometimes naive young woman who could use some social polish. Soon she is working with Hanson, and although they are indeed attracted to each other, romance is not the focus of this movie.
"The Deal" appreciates how big institutions like Slater's have factions and infighting; when he lands the Condor account, there's jealousy from Hank Weiss (a leaner, meaner Colm Feore), who is supposed to be the firm's oil expert. There is also a middle-aged woman in research who knows all sorts of things that nobody ever asks her about: For example, that there is no oil in the "oil fields" controlled by Black Star. What's going on? "Oil may have been shipped from there," Hanson is told by a cryptic insider, "but I can't tell you where it came out of the ground."
The movie is a little too laden with details for its own good, and it has more characters than it needs, but sometimes that complexity works; like the hero, we're feeling our way through a maze of motives and possibilities, and although it's fairly clear who cannot be trusted, it's not always clear who can be. "He's my only friend at the firm," Hanson says of one associate, "and he'd stab me in the back in a second."
The pressure to close the deal is enormous; Hanson's firm alone expects to bank $25 million in commissions. But would it be worth it if Black Star were phony, and Condor's shareholders were buying a worthless company? More to the point, what if Black Star is the front for an oil-laundering scheme? Plots like this once seemed paranoid, but no one who has seen the documentary "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room" will find the lies and deceit in this film surprising. It expresses a system of moral values that keeps running into the discovery that "in the real world," as they say, "things don't work that way." The last scenes of the movie are deeply cynical and yet, we have a sinking feeling, not a million miles from the way Wall Street and the federal government actually do business.
There is of course always the Ethics Task Force, set up by the SEC and the FBI to guard against Wall Street fraud. One of the movie's continuing puzzles involves the possibility that several characters may be working undercover for the task force or Black Star. Secret information has a way of getting around, and the seriousness of the people behind the deal is made fairly clear when Hanson finds a bleeding heart in his refrigerator. "Not a human heart," the cops quickly reassure him.
I admire the film's anger and intelligence, and the generally persuasive level of the performances; Robert Loggia really seems like a CEO and Selma Blair really seems like an idealistic college graduate. Francoise Yip, for that matter, seems like the sort of best corporate friend who always seems to know more than she should, and to be trying to tell you more than she can say.
But the problem is, "The Deal," like a lot of real-life Wall Street deals, is a labyrinth into which the plot tends to disappear. The ideas in the film are challenging, the level of expertise is high, the performances are convincing, and it's only at the level of story construction and dramatic clarity that the film doesn't succeed. One more rewrite might have been a good idea. I can't quite recommend it purely as a film, but as a double feature with "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room," it's a slam dunk.
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.

It's that time of year---brush clearing around your home!
Los Angeles is subject to hot weather, high winds, dryness and overgrowth, which create fire hazards when combined. It is important you brush clear your property and create a defensible space around your home to ward off potential fire disasters. Firefighters credit brush clearance with preventing a major loss of homes and other damage during the wildfire. Most brush fires start on uncleared, overgrown areas with lots of fuel (such as dead branches, tree parts and dry leaves), so brush clearance is considered a crucial barrier when flames reach developed areas. Although brush clearance inspections occur one a year, remember that maintenance is a year-round responsibilty. The LA County Fire Code requires all structure owners to comply with brush clearance requirements in an area up to 200' from structures. To help you following safe brush clearing guidelines, please read on.
Three Topanga community organizations: Topanga Town Council, the Topanga Creek Watershed Committee, and the Topanga Chamber of Commerce (TCoC), have all signed on to support Topanga's registration as a "Certified Wildlife Habitat" (CWH) at the community level and WE NEED YOU to help us achieve this goal.

Best Comeback Kid
Frankly this local restaurateur, who at one time owned 15-plus eateries in the South Florida area, was in something of a slump for a couple of years there. He separated from his wife of almost two decades, broke up with partner Burt Rapoport, and sold off his empire -- Prezzo, Max's Grille, even his flagship Maxaluna -- piece by piece. The boy looked down. But he's taught us never, ever to count him out. Now he's back with Max's Place in Bal Harbour in Miami-Dade County and a brand new place in Manalapan in Palm Beach County called Max's WatersEdge. He even has one of his old executive chefs, Pierre Viau, back behind the stove at latter locale. So keep your pity to yourself. All Max is interested in these days is your appetite.

Listen: Penderecki & Greenwood
Holy shit I'm about to go running but I need this. Penderecki is a genius and all of Greenwood's compositions are amazing. I still listen to the There Will Be Blood OST all the time.
yeah, there will be blood OST is so good. checking this now
Penderecki's pieces are usually unnerving as fuqq so I think they'll compliment each other nicely.
if i were to get an album (if thats what you call classical stuff, im not real versed on it, compositions maybe idk) by Penderecki which would i get?
The big "beginning collection" of Penderecki songs is Orchestral Works Vol. 1. In terms of pieces, I'd
recommend Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima first. (which is on that album)
sweet thanks
Thank you. Listening to the Popcorn piece (after the Threnody one) and they are both soooooo good. Makes me want to see a classical concert. With a dark symphony orchestra that has me listening like a child, open and full of wonder, fear, curiosity. Although actually, I think these songs will suffice quite well for now.
"...that has me listening like a child, open and full of wonder, fear, curiosity." me at every Nickelback show.
Not THAT kind of fear or wonder
Nor morbid curiosity
By the way, my all time favorite thing in the world of Penderecki is seeing Anne Sophie Mutter play his concierto para violin no. 2... start here, it's amazing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ux7iwDrkjc4&feature=related
there will be blood OST sounded like shit.
Can't wait. Penderecki is one of my absolute favorite composers. Also to Tarkus, check out the album Matrix 5.

- Publication
- By date
Play MagazineThis is one of those rare games that is so great, on so many levels, that you get butterflies in your stomach just thinking about it. [Mar 2002, p.18]
It's throw-your-controller-across-the-room-in-frustration difficult...and you'll love it.
An awesome shooter with superb graphics, and the thumb-numbing game play is challenging but not too hard.
There is no reason to jump onboard its potentially dynamic ride unless you have the time to virtually marry the game...it will also be well worth the effort.
Those with the patience and time however, will find a rewarding gaming experience.
I predict that diehards will cherish this game for ages. Unfortunately novice players will get frustrated after the love affair with the graphics ends and the real challenges begin.
At the core of the game is an excellent 3D shooter with enough platforming elements to keep the game varied. The levels, whether placed in the organic valleys or in the rigidly industrial buildings, are large and well detailed.
Official Xbox MagazineIt's hard as hell, partially because it's meant to be, partially because the complex, non-adjustable control scheme is completely non-intuitive, and partially because the camera is simply too twitchy...[yet] we love the strangely gorgeous Gunvalkrie. [Apr 2002, p.72]
netjakIf it weren't for the controls, this would have been a perfect game to add to your gaming collection or Sega collection, but I figure Sega spent too much time on graphics and not enough time realizing that "Hey, these controls are worse than Tomb Raider!"
Fight past the frustration and you'll find a great sense of reward and satisfaction; I personally found a lot to love about Gun Valkyrie.
Thankfully, the ability to upgrade your jet pack adds a much-needed modicum of depth, while the control scheme makes it easy to move in one direction while blowing stuff up in the opposite. Titanium-breasted robozons, a-w-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-y!
If you're impatient, have bad carpal tunnel syndrome, or just never got that whole hand-eye coordination thing down, this probably isn't the game for you.
Its original plot and setting, polished visuals, and overall high production value make this a must-have for any skilled console gamer. It's unfortunate that its seemingly complex control scheme will alienate most casual players.
Even with all of these great aspects, I feel that a terrible mistake was made by not including any multiplayer modes or extending the game time.

SAN DIEGO, March 3, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- ChipperList is a website that reviews and lists assisted living centers, memory care facilities and other types of senior housing communities. ChipperList is already the premiere source of information about senior living housing units, posting high-resolution images, maps, and walk through photos along with example menu items, and real reviews from people who have been to the San Diego senior care facilities listed on the site. Created by someone looking for assisted living care for his own family, the ChipperList website puts all the information about assisted living and memory care facilities in one place.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140303/MN75003 )
Each year, one in four facilities commits a serious violation where someone suffers from serious harm or neglect. State officials document these violations in highly detailed and complex inspection reports. Unfortunately, the average person does not know how to find these reports, or even know that they exist.
Many older people and their families avoid visiting senior care facilities until someone needs to move into one. By that time, many people are emotionally overwhelmed, stressed out, and do not know where to turn for fair and unbiased information.
ChipperList addresses this problem by putting these state reports in one easy-to-navigate location. The length and complexity of these reports make them difficult to understand, so ChipperList provides a summary of the report. They also display violations from the previous two years in graph form. This makes it easy to assess a facility's performance to make it easier to see.
ChipperList is attempting to raise $22,000 though the crowd funding site Indiegogo http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/chipperlist-assisted-living-reports to complete the publishing of the State Inspection Reports for San Diego and Los Angeles County.
ChipperList has assembled a highly qualified staff of reviewers, known affectionately as "munks," who tour every facility listed on the website. The munks review the facility, rate it, take pictures, rank each on a 5-star scale then post the information on ChipperList's virtual website maps. These expert reviewers are trained to assess a facility fairly; munks can spot problems that would not be apparent to the typical family member touring the facility.
While the army of munks has thoroughly documented the assisted living and memory care facilities in San Diego, online access to state inspection reports gives everyone the important information they need to choose the perfect senior care facility. ChipperList is proud to continue providing essential data for seniors and the people who care for them.
The ChipperList mission is supported by Hazel's Army, a community-based advocacy group that gives voice to those who have lost loved ones as the result of poor or improper care at Assisted Living and Skilled Nursing Facilities.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

I need a flowchart to represent the logic of a progran that allows the user to enter three values. The values represent hourly pay rate, the number of hours worked this pay period, and percentage of gross salary that is withheld. The program multiplies the hourly pay rate by the number of hours worked, giving the gross pay. Then, it multiples the gross pay by the withholding percentage, giving the witholding amount.
