WASHINGTON -- Labor unions and progressive groups, business lobbies and conservative outlets spent more than $3 million in television ads in state during the course of the Wisconsin budget fight, an analysis of expenditures that was commissioned by The Huffington Post shows.
That amounts to more than $1 million per week of the budget battle, hardly chump change and a reflection of the growth of major spending on legislative battles, even those based in the states, by politically-oriented institutions.
All told, those groups opposed to Gov. Scott Walker's controversial budget-repair bill spent $1,663,630 on television advertisements that aired in Wisconsin, according to Evan Tracey, president of the Campaign Media Analysis Group. Those supportive of the budget spent $1,535,770.
Those totals don't include spending on ads being run nationally by conservative groups like Crossroads GPS, or ads that have just been put up, such as those by the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee.
"Certainly it is at the higher end of the historical spectrum," Tracey said. "In this one, all eyes were on Wisconsin and it raised the stakes beyond just that state. Spending this kind of money is not done just for the press to absorb ... they are out there to persuade public opinion. These are real buys."
The most telling aspect of the ad purchases may be the sequence rather than the magnitude. Labor groups, as Tracey posited, moved quickly to set the narrative around Walker's anti-collective bargaining bill, which passed into law only after being stripped from the rest of the budget. And by doing so, they were able to motivate both within and beyond Wisconsin.
By contrast, the conservative ads were more responsive and less coordinated. Absent Walker's procedural moves, it's not clear if they would have been all that effective.
As one GOP operative told The Huffington Post, before the collective bargaining measure actually passed: "Labor jumped on a great opportunity and kicked our asses."
With lessons learned, the template seems to have been set for budget fights elsewhere. Tracey cited debates over New York senior citizen centers and money for California cops and prison guards as potential upcoming flashpoints.
Wisconsin Student Walkouts
Wisconsin Republican Gov. Scott Walker's bill to end collective bargaining for public employees passed the state senate on Wednesday. In reaction, Wisconsin high school students are planning a nationwide walkout in order to send a unified message in support of public education.
A Facebook event labeled Nationwide Student Walkout already has more than 5,000 people "attending." The group asks for the nationwide walkout to happen this Friday, March 11, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. local time.

Walker Signs Anti-Union Bill Into Law
AP reports:
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says he is certain support will grow for the new law that eliminates nearly all collective bargaining rights for public employees.
The governor signed the measure Friday. In an interview with The Associated Press, he said he has "no doubt" that support will build as the government becomes more efficient. He said public employees would still have civil-service protections.
Walker spoke about the law even as dozens of protesters shouted outside his Capitol office in opposition to it. The proposal passed the state senate and Assembly earlier this week.

Democratic Party Releases First Post-Vote Ad Targeting Wisconsin Republicans
HuffPost's Sam Stein reports:
Less than two days after Wisconsin Senate Republicans took to seedy if not crafty parliamentary maneuvers to pass an anti-collective bargaining bill, the Democratic party is up with ads targeting individual members.
The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee released an ad on Friday attacking Sen. Luther Olsen (R-Wis.) for being a doormat in Gov. Scott Walker's effort to get his budget-related measure passed into law.
"We expect pins to get bowled over," the spot goes. "Pies to get rolled. But we certainly don't expect our senators to get flattened. Last month, Senator Olsen said eliminating collective bargaining is, quote, 'pretty radical.'

Wisconsinites March From Milwaukee To Madison
HuffPost's Amanda Terkel reports:
Far away from the large protests at the Wisconsin statehouse, a group of about 60 people -- students, teachers, nurses and others -- met at 6:00 a.m. at Riverside High School in Milwaukee on Friday morning, the first step in their march all the way to Madison (approximately 80 miles).
The walk will take three days, ending at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday in Madison. Today, the group is walking about 12 or 13 hours. Tomorrow will be eight hours, and Sunday will be six hours. While some people are going to be making the full trek, others will be joining and leaving along the way.
The Huffington Post spoke with Christopher Fons, a public school teacher who came up with the idea for the march, at noon CT. Fons is part of the group People Organizing Wisconsin for Education and Workers Rights (POWER). They had already walked approximately 20 miles and were excited that it was a "balmy" 35 degrees.
Fons first conceived of the march about a week ago, when he was teaching his U.S. history class about Cesar Chavez and the National Farm Workers Association. In 1965, Chavez organized a historic farmworkers march from Delano, Calif. to Sacramento -- 340 miles.
"It's about the journey," said Fons. "There's been a lot of large demonstrations in Capitol, but we just thought we should try to dramatize this in a different way. I'm in complete support of the large rallies, but I just think we need to be doing other strategies to raise consciousness."
A few stands have popped up along the march route providing coffee and other refreshments, which have, according to Fons, really helped the morale of the participants. But when The Huffington Post spoke with Fons, they were in Waukesha County, a more Republican area where he said the reception had not always been quite as friendly.
"The message is about not allowing collective bargaining to be ended and about defending public education in the state -- to try to defend this idea that we have the Wisconsin idea," said Fons. "The Wisconsin idea is an egalitarian society that has education at its center, for everybody."
Since the beginning of the controversy, teachers have been an integral part of the protests against Gov. Scott Walker's (R) budget repair bill, with many public schools shut down for days because so many teachers have gone to Madison to protest.
Sen. Ron Johnson Denounces 'Mob Rule'
The Washington Post reports:
Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), a former businessman and now a freshman senator, held a conference call Thursday afternoon with a small group of bloggers. For a freshman, he's entirely fluid on the issues and easily navigates between specifics and larger themes.
I asked him about Wisconsin. Why did Gov. Scott Walker take so long to pull out the "fiscal" elements and pass the legislation without a quorum? Johnson first made clear that he and the governor believe this "is not about individual workers . . . but about rebalancing the equation" so that the taxpayers' interests are being protected. As for the long-in-coming resolution, Johnson explained that the governor wanted the collective bargaining provision and the rest of the cost-cutting measures "tied" because they were all part of the effort to close the state's budget deficit. But it became evident the Democrats weren't budging. He said that one Democratic senator even requested an absentee ballot for the spring election. At that point Walker moved forward on the bill.

Jesse Jackson: Whether Cairo Or Madison, It Will Not Work
The Daily Caller reports on Jesse Jackson's statements on the Wisconsin anti-union bill's passage:
"More health care for more Americans is not as hurtful as less education and less health care and fewer jobs," Jackson said. "Maybe what you see here is the rise of hurt and people are acting out their democratic rights and sharing their pain. And they want to be heard and I feel that when they're steamrolled as they were in the Assembly and as they are in the Senate, people are going to fight back against the governor hears them and engages in democracy and not ramrod democracy. It simply will not work whether Cairo or Madison, it will not work."
Jackson said pro-union legislators were denied the ability to vote on the issue and forecasted a "rebellion" to come within the next month.
Full story here.
'Hollow Victory'
Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Mike Tate has issued the following statement on the anti-union bill's passage:
"It is a shameful day for Wisconsin. Ultimately, our working families will have their day and Scott Walker's victory will ring as hollow as his pledges to their well-being. Today, the Koch Brothers can pop some champagne. But know that our total focus now is on recall."
State Capitol Closing Early
The Wisconsin State Capitol will close at 6 p.m. CST today, WKOW.com reported on Twitter.
Municipalities Pursuing Legal Challenges
Wisconsin municipalities are already mounting legal challenges against the controversial anti-union bill that passed first in the state Senate and now in the Assembly.
Madison Mayor Dave Cieslewicz asserted on his blog that the bill's passage violates the state's open meetings law and has engaged City Attorney Mike May:
I've asked Mike to join any action he deems appropriate in the courts this morning to reverse the Senate's illegal action.
Meanwhile, Dane County has also begun taking action, reports Madison's WKOW.com:
To quote Mike's email to alders and I this morning:
"The Office of the City Attorney (in compliance with State law) insists on 24 hours notice for any meeting, or adding any matter to an agenda, unless there is no way that 24 hours notice could have been given. Mere convenience or inadvertence is insufficient to meet the less than 24-hour notice. This is necessary to be in compliance with the Open Meetings Law. It is an essential element of government in Wisconsin.
"Today's action does not meet that test. It does not comply with Wisconsin Law.
"The action taken today will be struck down if challenged in court."
Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk and County Board Chair Scott McDonell have directed Dane County attorneys to pursue legal action related to state Senate Republicans passing the budget repair bill without Democrats present.

Labor Vows To Challenge Anti-Union Bill In Court
HuffPost's Amanda Terkel reports:
Dealt a major setback Wednesday night in a high-stakes battle over union rights in Wisconsin, labor leaders nevertheless insisted that they would emerge from the three-week long saga energized and eager to continue fighting.
Hours after Gov. Scott Walker (R-Wis.) and his Republican allies in the state Senate took nearly everyone by surprise and pushed through a stand-alone bill stripping public employees of their collective bargaining rights, labor officials pledged to ramp up efforts to recall Republicans and challenge the legislation in court.
Only shortly before the vote took place, local news outlets reported that Republicans were splitting Walker's budget repair bill into two. While the Senate requires a quorum of 3/5 of its members to vote on fiscal statutes, just a majority is needed for other matters. Therefore, Senate Republicans broke off the most controversial portions -- including a proposal to strip away the collective bargaining rights of public employees -- into a separate piece of legislation that could be passed without Senate Democrats, who were still out of state.

Now that Cyber Monday is underway, it's about time for the "Best of Everything!!!" lists to start coming out. (Or, as documented at Largehearted Boy, continue coming out.) Personally, I fricking love these sorts of lists, to find books/albums that I need to check out, and to serve as fodder for my anger . . . I'll bet at least half of an upcoming podcast will be an escalation of complaints about some utterly predictable list of shit that most four-book-a-year readers will slobber over . . . And hopefully our year end lists (in books, movies, and music) will get some other cultural elitists all bent.
But for now, the only year end list I've checked out is this Kirkus one, which is definitely my favorite, since it includes TWO Open Letter titles: Children of Reindeer Woods by Kristin Omarsdottir, translated from the Icelandic by Lytton Smith and My First Suicide by Jerzy Pilch (Kirkus LOVES the Pilch), translated from the Polish by David Frick.
There are a number of interesting books on this list—Kingdom Come by J.G. Ballard, The Investigation by Philip Claudel, Arcadia by Lauren Groff, Lazarus Is Dead by Richard Beard, and Three Strong Women by Marie NDiaye—but not many (any?) from small, nonprofit presses. YAY TO US FOR OVERACHIEVING!
I love both of these books, and you can buy them from your local independent bookstore, from Amazon, from B&N, or directly from us: click here for Children, and here for Suicide.
However you get them, I hope you do. And I want to take a second to give a special shout-out to Lytton Smith and David Frick for translating these. Both books set forth their own unique difficulties, and both translators totally nailed it. Congrats to both of you!
Prose translators will likely disagree, but I believe translating poetry requires a significant level of talent, a commitment to the text, and near mania, all of which suggests that the undertaking is the greatest possible challenge. The task is to. . .

Just days after receiving a $258 million gift card from Google Ventures and TPG, the San Francisco car-hire start-up has officially launched its service in Dubai. We heard the news via an exultant tweet from Uber spokesman Andrew Noyes, accompanied by a glamor shot of the company's first Dubai rider.
Great to have @RizKhanShows as our very first @Uber_Dubai rider! pic.twitter.com/hP2JNmX2ey— Andrew Noyes (@anoyes) August 27, 2013
The man in the photo is Riz Khan, a TV host and international journalist who apparently got swept up in the ride-share romance. According to an Uber company blog post, he used the iPhone app to hail a sleek BMW-7 from downtown, shortly after hearing that it had arrived in the Emirates.
So why Dubai? Well, according to Uber, it's an industrial country in full bloom, plumped with glitzy nightclubs, chic restaurants, a burgeoning tourist industry, tech ex-pats -- the perfect place to transform into a (faux) cab town.
We're not sure if Uber will face the same regulatory skirmishes there that it's set off in the United States, but for now the company is plowing ahead. Uber said it will spend the next few weeks "testing and tweaking" its service, but in the meantime, it's hiring.

The B.C. Lions have put some concerns about their quarterbacking situation to rest, at least for a little while, as the CFL playoffs loom.
And their running game is looking pretty good, too.
Nominal No. 1 signal-caller Travis Lulay scored a touchdown and completed three-of-four passes in limited duty upon his return from a shoulder injury as the Lions beat the Calgary Stampeders 26-7 in the final game of the regular season for both teams Friday night.
"It was just exciting to be back on the field with the guys, just to get in and call some plays," said Lulay, who missed six games.
Quarterbacking has been a concern because of Lulay's health, Buck Pierce's history of injuries and second-year pro Thomas DeMarco's inexperience. But all three impressed at times as the Lions sent a message that they will not go down lightly if the clubs meet in the West Final for the second year in a row.
Meanwhile, Andrew Harris rushed for 102 yards and a touchdown as the Lions posted their second straight win heading into a semifinal game in Saskatchewan.
"We just have ultimate confidence right now, and it's perfect timing, because we have a (potentially) long stretch here on the road in the playoffs," said Harris. "Where we are right now, these two wins were absolutely crucial for us. I just think if we keep building off this we'll be all right in the playoffs."
The Lions (11-7) had already secured third place, while the Stampeders (14-4) were already assured of first place and an opening-round playoff bye in the West Division. The clubs approached the game like an exhibition contest, with each deploying three quarterbacks and resting several other players.
Harris excelled as he cracked the 100-yard barrier for the first time since July 30 against Toronto and was held under 20 yards on three occasions.
"Oh, man, if I'd have known that, I would have been yelling at (the coaches) to be running the ball," said Harris. "But it's just one of those things. It's been a disappointing season and to not get 1,000 is a disappointing thing as well. But at the end of the day, we're in the playoffs a and that's the biggest thing for me."
Paul McCallum provided the rest of B.C.'s points in the form of four field goals from 46, 44, 17 and 23 yards and two converts to account for the rest of B.C.'s scoring.
Calgary's Rene Paredes booted field goals of 46 and 21 yards while the Stampeders' other point came on a punt single.
"We didn't play good enough to win," said Calgary linebacker Juwan Simpson. "We take all the blame. We allowed them to score. We know we have to play better. We had a few injuries, but that's no excuse. We should have played better as a team."
The Stampeders suffered a blow when they lost running back Jon Cornish, who entered the game as the CFL's rushing leader, with an apparent shoulder injury. Cornish recorded only four carries for 14 yards before leaving the game.
The Lions got off to a rough start as Pierce threw a pass way beyond intended receiver Courtney Taylor and was intercepted by Deron Mayo. But on B.C.'s next drive, he moved his club to the Calgary one-yard line and DeMarco came in and handed off to Harris for a touchdown off a third-and-one gamble.
The Stampeders picked up a point on Maver's 60-yard punt single on the final play of the first quarter to close the gap to 7-4.
But McCallum's 47-yard field goal at 6:23 of the second quarter put the Lions ahead 10-4, setting the stage for Lulay's short, but victory-clinching effort entry a little while later.
Harris chalked up 51 yards on four plays that included three runs and just one seven-yard pass reception. But Lulay then connected with Nick Moore on a 36-yard pass that put the ball at the B.C. one-yard line. The QB then ran for a one-yard touchdown to culminate an 11-play, 87 yard scoring drive that with McCallum's convert gave the Lions a 17-4 lead that stood up until halftime and effectively erased any further doubt about the outcome.
"We were able to execute that one drive really well," said Lulay, who passed for a total of 54 yards. "We were second-and-long but the run game kept the drive alive. It was just a well executive drive and we finished it off, so it was good to be in and be a part of that."
Pierce completed four-of-nine passes for 41 yards while Lulay was good on three of four, accumulating 54 yards, before they were both pulled.
"It was good to get the start in," said Pierce, who made his first start since July while he was still with Winnipeg. "I threw an early turnover, but we wanted to take some shots early."
DeMarco completed 9-of-12 passes for 96 yards, including a 45-yard strike to Emmanuel Arceneaux in the fourth quarter. The second-year Lions QB, who had struggled in recent weeks, generated three field goals and was unlucky not to get his team in the end zone after Harris was tackled for a loss that forced the Lions to settle for a 17-yard field goal.
"I think it's a good (quarterbacking) situation right now, and I think the whole offence and the whole team is confident in our play over the last two weeks," said Pierce, who led the Lions to a win over Saskatchewan seven days earlier.
Glenn finished with five completions on eight pass attempts before getting the rest of the night off. Drew Tate and Bo Levi Mitchell also saw action at quarterback for Calgary but generated little as the Stamps generated only 165 yards in net offence to B.C.'s 365.
Notes: As a result of Pierce's start, CFL teams deployed 19 different starting quarterbacks this season, according to the league. He was viewed as a "double-counter" because he started for both Winnipeg and B.C. The actual number of quarterbacks to start a game was 18. He was the third Lions QB to receive a start. a Calgary also lost defensive tackle Demonte Bolden, receiver Marquay McDaniel and defensive tackle Micah Johnson to injuries in the first half. a B.C. nickleback Korey Banks sat out with a lower-body injury, while linebacker Anton McKenzie was sidelined with an undisclosed ailment that kept him out of practice all week.Report Typo/Error

Extreme Force BCAA's - 300gr lemon
Delivery timeDelivery 3-4 working daysLess than 5 available
Characteristics Extreme Force BCAA's - 300gr lemon
- Boosting protein synthesis and gaining muscle mass
- Anti-catabo lic action
- Preventing mental fatigue, which occurs during prolonged exercise
- Preventing chronic fatigue in long-distance runners, cyclists, swimmers, rowers, etc
- Accelerating the replacement of glycogen and muscle recovery after exertion
- Preventing infections
- Strengthening the immune system
The BCAA ́s Extreme Force GoldNutrition® formula combines branched-chain amino acids (BCAA's) in a 4:1:1 ratio (Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine) with Glutamine. The combination of BCAA s and Glutamine results in a formula that boosts protein synthesis, enables better muscle recovery after exercise and prevents chronic fatigue.
BCAAs are essential amino acids that comprise around 33% of the muscle protein of our body, and which are essential to preserve the lean muscle mass. Furthermore, Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid, which means our body has the capacity to produce it but in stress ful situations, namely during physical exercise , infection or surgery, it is not produced in enough quantity to meet the needs. Glutamine is the free amino acid that is found in the highest quantity in the muscles, accounting for around 50% of the total muscular amino acids.
Supplementation with BCAA's and Glutamine is ext remely important given that they have an anti-catabolicaction, preventing central fatigue, contributing to protein synthesis and accelerating recovery after exercise. The BCAA ́s Extreme Force GoldNutrition® formula in powder form, owing to its unique features and delicious flavour, has become the preferred supplement to take when working out.
Suggested usage
Take 1 dose (5 g) before working out and 1 dose (5 g) after working out. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
Format and flavour
Extreme Force BCAA's - 300gr / Lemon
L-Leucine, L-Glutamine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine, Acidifier (Citric Acid), Lime-lemon flavouring, Colour (Saffron), Sweetener (Sucrose), Acidifier (Sodium citrate), Sweetener (Acesulfame-K). Contains a source of phenylalanine.

Great place. Awesome open layout for lots of people. Stayed there with a lot of family and everyone had their own space. No problems with the hot tub and the trail down to the water was great! I would stay there again.
We spent the new year's holiday weekend with some friends and couldn't be more pleased. The place had a lot of flexibility in terms of places for people to gather and the open floor plan was great for our group of friends who don't get to see each other as often as we used to. The fire pit and hot tub are great amenities. Overall just a beautiful space in beautiful surroundings. The contact for this place was very responsive, amenable, and easy to work with. Would definitely like to stay again sometime!
My group had been taking an annual cabin trip to Gatlinburg for the last 8 years and decided to trim the trip in half and started looking at places in Kentucky on lakes. This cabin stood out for the back deck with hot tub that had a great view of Lake Cumberland, the open layout of main floor with kitchen, dining room, and living room seamlessly together. For a group of 12, it suited us well from bed perspective. Some of the mattresses were not that comfortable but the linens were good. Only real problem we encountered was there were a few door handles that didn't stay on or work easily but it was manageable. Last, often the drive to cabins/lakehouses can be tedious but this was a easy drive with a nearby Kroger and liquor store 15 minutes away.
The house was very open and rooms were huge. There were either a couple of problems with the doors or we weren't capable of operating them appropriately! Other than that it was luxurious and we had one tiny problem the property management group worked hard to solve and resolved the issue quickly. I plan on staying again and using the property management group again as well. We had an awesome time!!!
Our family and friends rented the cabin for the weekend, while we went caving nearby in Burnside, Kentucky. The layout of the building is perfect for bringing large families or hosting a youth group. We divided up the bedrooms to couples, a boys room, and a girls room... and accommodated everyone with the four and half baths. The kitchen was reasonably furnished and easily hosted our meal needs. Everything was clean and ready for our use. Due to the weather, we didn't even get to enjoy the outdoor fire pit, deck area, jacuzzi or grill. We were all very pleased with this property and will hopefully rent it again, if we are in the area.
it was a beautiful place with amazing views! we walked down to the water from the trail that was marked perfectly and it was stunning! Thank you so much for making our youth retreat possible, it was a great place to stay!

Sarasota's 7-Bone Crockpot Coca-Cola Pot Roast
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 6 hrs
A classic dish, but I cut back on the cola for my version and add beef broth, tomato sauce and add a few more vegetables for my taste. I am sure there are many versions, but I was asked to post my version - so here it is. Six (6)-8 hours and you have a great all in one meal. Serve this with a good dinner roll and a small salad.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1587.57-2041.16 g beef 7-bone roast
- 59.14 ml flour
- salt
- pepper
- 29.58 ml olive oil
- 236.59 ml Coca-Cola (no diet and no pepsi)
- 236.59 ml tomato sauce
- 236.59 ml beef broth (low salt)
- 35.43 g package dry onion soup mix
- 14.79 ml sweet paprika
- 9.85 ml dried oregano
- 14.79 ml minced garlic
- 1 bay leaf
- 2.46 ml black pepper (you can add more pepper at the end of cooking)
- 453.59 g red potatoes (I like the small ones, skins on)
- 226.79 g carrot, peeled and cut in 2-inch pieces (thick carrots I cut lengthwise too. You want all the carrots to cook evenly at the same time, so mak)
- 2 parsnips, peeled and cut in 2-inch pieces (cut the same as the carrots)
- 1 large onion, rough chopped (not too small of pieces or they will fall apart)
- 226.79 g cremini mushrooms (white or button can be substituted, leave them whole or larger ones you can cut in half)
- 78.07 ml fresh parsley, fine chopped (added at the end of cooking)
- Roast -- This to me is an important step. Season the meat well with a mix of the flour, salt and pepper. Rub it in well on all sides of the meat. Then in a large pan add the oil and heat to medium high. Sear the meat on all sides until you get a nice crust and it begins to brown. Just a minute per side is all you need. This really helps the flavor in this dish. Then add your meat to the crock pot.
- Crockpot -- Add all the vegetables around your roast. I like to put the carrots, parsnips towards the bottom, then the potatoes and mushrooms, and last, add the onions over the top of the roast.
- Sauce -- Mix everything together in a small bowl and pour over the meat and vegetables. Turn your crockpot on low and cook 6-8 hours. Mine was tender in 6, but it really depends on whether you have a round or oval pot, and the newer models tend to cook a bit hotter. So, you know your crockpot best. Before serving, check if you want to add any additional pepper and add in the fresh parsley.
- Serve -- Remove the roast and vegetables and make sure to let the roast set 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with the gravy on the side. ENJOY!
Most Helpful
Great dish. Loved the sauce and all the veggies. I did mine on the stove top and cooked for 2 hours. Will do again but cook longer as my meat was still a little chewy. Used the left overs in soup and was wonderful.
This was excellent. I was leary about adding Coca Cola to a roast...but it was delish! I didn't use this recipe in a crock pot...I did it on low in the oven and it was to die for. The house smelled so good and my sweetie kept telling me if it tased as good as it smelled he was going to be in 7th heaven. We made this for New Years Eve dinner and we will be using this recipe often. Thanks for the best roast we have had in a long time SarasotaCook!

"I'm going to do something I never do," confesses Allen Stone. "I've got a song called 'The Fly' I wrote two days ago in my hotel room I'd like to sing to you." It's a courageous and daft act from this resolutely bland American soul singer.
The unwieldy Stone resembles a blend of Noddy Holder and Napoleon Dynamite, with his straggly blond locks, chunky glasses and goofy smile. The energetic 24-year-old is from The Meters, Roachford and Jamiroquai school of middling funk. Giddy comparisons have been made with Stevie Wonder, and the Motown maestro is clearly a huge influence, but Stone's unambitious groove is more "Part-Time Lover" Wonder than Innervisions Stevie.
This earnest artist from tiny Chewelah, Washington has been generating quite a bit of barely comprehensible "heat" Stateside, from Conan O'Brien gushing about him on his chat show to Stone's performance of "Unaware", filmed in his mother's living room, attracting, staggeringly, nearly two million hits on YouTube. It's baffling.
In his favour Stone, the son of a preacher man, is a relatively commanding live presence. The crowd sway their arms in the right places, some even dance. However, this showcase for his new album, Allen Stone, is a mainly joyless affair peppered with the tenor singer's fondness for irksome falsetto screeches and a tendency to add a warbling flourish at the end of most of his tracks.
Lyrically Stone proves inelegant and clunky, claiming "Politicians manipulate minds/ And public opinion's either left or it's right/ No progression/ we just argue and fight/ For centuries we've been digging divides" on "What I've Seen". Nothing earth-shattering then, and his voice and sound are simply too derivative.
"I'm sick and tired of soul music looking so crisp and clean and proper," Stone has claimed. "My soul is just a little bit greasy." It's not, though. It's very (smooth) radio and shopping centre-friendly funk. He regularly crouches down behind his microphone to demonstrate how much he's feeling the funk. Stone the crows, Jamiroquai is funkier than this. Not a sentence you see every day. This experience is like absorbing a cheap, unsatisfying instant coffee.
There's no lack of gusto though, as Stone covers such hot topics as insomnia (on "Sleep"), love ("The Wind", where he informs us "Girl we're nothing more than life's waves cast upon life's shore") and, er, the economy ("Unaware"). "Why do you keep on making us hear your song," as Stevie Wonder once sung on "You Haven't Done Nothing". Indeed, stop now.

Browns defensive tackle Danny Shelton was spotted with a cast on his left arm recently, which spurred questions on Twitter about what was bothering him.
Shelton revealed he had his wrist "cleaned up" since the end of the regular season and that he'll be fine in time for next season. A Browns spokesman told Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal the same thing and Shelton's agent said his client will be working out next week.
Shelton has started 31-of-32 games since the Browns drafted him in the first round in 2015. His second season was an improvement on his rookie campaign as he recorded 59 tackles and 1.5 sacks in Hue Jackson's first year in Cleveland.
Jackson's second year will see a new defensive scheme introduced by new defensive coordinator Gregg Williams. The move will include a shift to a 4-3, which will require a shift in Shelton's role, but it doesn't sound like his wrist should cost him much time on the field while it is being installed.

Yes, Bears (for now) quarterback Jay Cutler has plenty of leverage when it comes to a possible trade. And he seems to be ready to use it. Or at least to threaten to.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network explained on (shocker) NFL Network that Cutler is "still considering" whether he wants to play, not play, walk away, etc.
For Cutler, the retirement option is a useful tool to scare away a team that may be inclined to trade for him, but that he may not be inclined to play for. It's also a way to save face, in the event no one trades for him, the Bears cut him, and no one offers him the starting job without having to compete with a rookie and/or slappy.
That's the difference between Cutler and guys like Carson Palmer and Ben Roethlisberger. For them, the play/no play option has a viable location if the decision is to play. For Cutler, retirement may be the only way to avoid washing out of the bottom of the league by spending a year getting banged around on a bad team — or to escape the indignity of a quarterback-needy league collectively deciding it no longer wants him.
The Titans had a banquet downtown for their season-ticket holders and gave out some awards, but one will be remembered far beyond the usual collection of honors for football players.
Former Titans linebacker Tim Shaw, who has remained around the team following his diagnosis with ALS, walked to the stage with center Ben Jones when it was time to open the envelope and present Most Inspirational Titan.
"There must be some problem with this," Shaw said, via Paul Kuharsky of ESPN. com. "It says Tim Shaw. . . .
"To be called inspirational is actually the most humbling thing that's ever happened to me," Shaw continued. "To me, it's inspirational when you face something that is not cool, something that scares you, something that can potentially bring you down, and you go right at it. To me that's inspirational.
"So if that's what I am doing, you can call me inspirational."
Shaw, who played for the Titans from 2010-12, was diagnosed with the degenerative disease in 2014. He has been a fixture around the team since, offering motivational speeches and a presence for a team that made great improvements last year.
"You had a large part in what happened in 2016 for this Titans football team," Titans coach Mike Mularkey told Shaw. "He came in training camp and had such an impactful message to this football team that he changed a lot of lives."
Shaw's approach to his fight has been something any team would want to embrace, and part of the reason they made him a "Titan for life" last summer, putting him on the roster for a day during training camp so he could retire with the team.
Former Jaguars and Lions cornerback Fernando Bryant has been fired from his job as a high school coach over a seemingly innocuous photograph his wife posted on social media.
Strong Rock Christian School initially hired Bryant as a teacher and its head football coach, but then sent him a letter three weeks later telling him that he would not get the job.
"This letter will confirm that Strong Rock Christian School has made a decision not to move forward with your employment in the position of head coach of the football team and physical education teacher. As we discussed, after we made the offer to you, some within our parent community raised concerns regarding your family's public presence on social media and the internet and questioned whether the postings and information were consistent with our Christian values. We're sorry that our relationship had to end before it started. We wish you the best," the letter stated, via Atlanta TV station 11 Alive.
Bryant says he's baffled by the decision. The school did not tell him specifically what was posted on social media to get him fired, but he was led to believe it was a picture of himself and his wife holding a bottle of alcohol. Bryant said the school never told him employees weren't allowed to drink alcohol.
"I'm a Christian, but that's the one thing that gives Christianity a bad name, when we start passing judgment on one another," Bryant said.
Bryant was the Jaguars' first-round pick in the 1999 NFL draft. He played five seasons in Jacksonville and four in Detroit.
A study commissioned by the NFL on last year's game between the Houston Texans and Oakland Raiders played in Mexico City has determined the event generated $45 million.
In a story by the Associated Press on the study – produced by Ernst and Young – the activity around the game generated $43 million in tourist spending, of which $32 million was incremental to the Mexico City economy.
The 27-20 victory by the Raiders was attended by 76,473 at Estadio Azteca. It was the first NFL game to be played in Mexico since the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals played in the same stadium in 2005.
The Raiders will return to Mexico City next season and host the defending Super Bowl champion New England Patriots. Just like the NFL's increasing schedule in London, if their games abroad continue to generate significant returns in profit the league will undoubtedly continue to expand its reach into new locales.
Patriot owner Robert Kraft testified in the first Aaron Hernandez trial. Patriots coach Bill Belichick could testify in the second Aaron Hernandez trial.
Via the Associated Press, Hernandez's lawyers have added Belichick to the list of possible witnesses. The head coach joins offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels as persons who may take the oath and answer questions.
The potential purpose of Belichick's testimony isn't known. Typically, lawyers pump up the list with an overly broad list of names in order to conceal the actual case strategy that would arise if the lawyers listed only the witnesses who actually will testify.
Putting it another way, it's like listing 20 players as "questionable" so that the other team won't know who's actually injured.
Already convicted and serving life without parole for the June 2013 shooting death of Odin Lloyd, Hernandez now stands trial for the July 2012 murders of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado. Jury selection has begun, and opening statements are scheduled for March 1.
Former North Carolina quarterback Mitch Trubisky will participate in everything except the bench press at next week's NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, Trubusky's father told the News-Herald in Willoughby, Ohio.
Though that's subject to change, it's noteworthy because some top prospects skip their group's workout session and instead choose only to throw or fully work out on their own campuses.
Earlier this week, former Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson said he plans to fully participate in the NFL Scouting Combine. Trubisky, Watson and DeShone Kizer of Notre Dame — all early entries in the 2017 NFL Draft — are generally considered the top quarterbacks in this year's draft, while some would put Patrick Mahomes of Texas Tech among the top group.
There doesn't seem to be a consensus No. 1 quarterback at this point of the process, so the hand-shaking, medical-checking and interview portions of next week's event figure to be just as important as what goes on in the formal throwing session, which ends the three days the quarterbacks will spend in Indianapolis.
Workout groups in Indianapolis are generally divided alphabetically and by position, so Trubisky and Watson will likely be throwing together in the second group during the on-field quarterback workout.
The 49ers announced Wednesday that longtime personnel executive Tom Gamble is leaving the team.
Gamble has spent 10 of his 29 NFL seasons with the 49ers. He returned to the team for the past two years after serving as vice president of player personnel with the Eagles in 2013-14.
"The 49ers organization has tremendous respect and appreciation for Tom Gamble and his many years of service," new 49ers General Manager John Lynch said in the team's release on Gamble's departure. "He is a class act who has helped a great deal in this transition, and I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know him.
"After working together over the last month, Tom and I agreed that it would be in both of our best interests for him to pursue other opportunities. Tom is a true professional and we wish him and his family great success in the future."
Gamble was director of pro personnel with the 49ers from 2005-10 and director of player personnel in 2011-12 before going to Philadelphia. He was the team's assistant G.M. last season, putting him in position to help Lynch transition into his first front office job.
49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick can bail on the balance of his contract between March 2 and March 7. The 49ers can do so at any time. For now, both sides are still weighing their options. The process included a recent meeting between the player and his new coach and G.M., Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch, respectively.
"We had a great discussion and Colin left excited, we left excited and I think as Kyle and I really believe, the evaluation is still very much fluid," Lynch told KNBR, via Chris Biderman of USA Today.
"And we've only been on the job a couple weeks. I can tell you, we both really very much being around Colin and he seems like he's in a real good place."
Kaepernick is due to earn $14.5 million in 2017, and the 49ers surely won't be paying him that kind of money for one more year. Given that Shanahan and Lynch are newcomers, Kaepernick is no different to them than any other free agent quarterback would be. Because he's still under contract with the 49ers, however, the team has the ability to talk to him and to negotiate with him before he voids the contract and becomes a free agent.
There's a chance that, in the end, both sides will decide that its in their mutual best interests to give it another try. The final decision will depend on the other options for the team and the other options for the player. Given that multiple other teams will not be inclined to alienate a large swath of the fan base by signing the player at the heart of the 2016 anthem protests, staying in San Francisco could be his best option.
In weighing his options, Kaepernick would benefit from some third-part advice. For now, though, he still doesn't have an agent.
When the Patriots traded for tight end Martellus Bennett, they knew that: (1) he had one more year left on his contract; and (2) if he and/or the team had a big year, Bennett would try to parlay the experience into a contract potentially worth more than what the Patriots would be willing to pay. Indeed, the Patriots have a habit of trading for players in the final years of their contracts because if/when the players leave via free agency, the departure counts toward the team's eventual haul of compensatory draft picks.
Of course, that reality isn't keeping some fans from lobbying Bennett to take less to stay in New England. To that, Bennett had this to say: "Stop @'ing me about taking less money. You take less money [at] your job? All of you take a pay cut hahaha."
Later, he said this: "All I'm saying is cut your own grass don't be all in my garden f–king with my fruit while weeds are growing all over yours."
Bennett is right. Football players have a limited number of years to play, and they have every right to try to get as much as they can while they can. Owners chase every dollar they can without criticism; players should do the same.
Actually, players have even more reason to pursue as much money as possible because they don't own anything other than their own bodies. At a time when management and labor are roughly splitting the revenues, the players get half the revenue and the owners get all the revenue and all the equity.
So go for it, Marty and every other free agent. Get paid. Use your leverage. And don't apologize to any of the people who aren't putting their short-term and long-term health interests on the line to engage in a profession that too many trivialize by calling it a "game."
It's not a game. It's a multi-billion-dollar enterprise that keeps growing and growing and the men who have careers that last for a blink of an eye in relation to the overall life of the business should do anything and everything to get what they can while they can.
Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston isn't shy about much, and the same goes for what's now an open recruitment of wide receiver DeSean Jackson.
"You better believe we want DeSean here," Winston told the Tampa Bay Times on Wednesday. "I think he would be a great asset to our team. Me growing up an Eagles fan, seeing what he did for the Eagles and back in his Cal days and even with the Redskins, I would love to have DeSean."
The new league year begins March 9, and Jackson will be a free agent unless he signs a new deal with Washington before then.
Winston was asked about Jackson during an appearance at a school because of an ESPN report from earlier in the week that listed Tampa Bay as a possible destination for Jackson, who's talked openly about free agency. The ESPN report said Jackson and Winston have an existing relationship and listed the Bucs as a possible suitor.
Winston said now that he has two seasons under his belt, he "can be one of our best recruiters. My main focus is to win."
Jackson, 30, has long been one of the NFL's best deep threats. A potential pairing of Mike Evans and Jackson would allow Winston the opportunity to throw the ball vertically on both sides of the field and dare safeties to devote extra attention to one side or another.
Linebacker James Harrison didn't spend much time after the end of the Steelers' season weighing whether he wanted to return for another NFL season.
Harrison, who turns 39 in May, said after the team's playoff loss that he wasn't done playing. It appears he's already thinking about his plans for after his 40th birthday as well.
Harrison's agent Bill Parise told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com that his client would like to sign a two-year contract this offseason. This week also brought word of "mutual interest" between Harrison and the Steelers in yet another year in Pittsburgh and Parise confirmed their side of it.
"Of course James wants to be in Pittsburgh," Parise said.
It remains to be seen if the Steelers share that interest, but there are a lot of ways to structure a contract so that parting won't be too onerous if the Steelers decide that Harrison has reached the end of the line by the end of the 2017 season.
If you watched or listened to Wednesday's PFT Live, you saw or heard (or both) a discussion about the teams that could be or should be interested in Bears quarterback Jay Cutler. And while Cutler has the power to essentially scare away any potential suitor, it doesn't get to that point unless and until potential suitors emerge.
So which teams could be or should be interested in adding Cutler via trade or, if he's released, as a free agent? Here's the list that Stats and I discussed on Wednesday's show.
49ers: This one makes a lot of sense, for various reasons. First, the cupboard is largely bare. Second, new G.M. John Lynch called Cutler a "once-in-every-15-year-type talent" after the Broncos traded Cutler to the Bears eight years ago. Third, the father of new coach Kyle Shanahan drafted Cutler 11 years ago in Denver. And while Shanahan has said he's not interested in a short-term fix at quarterback, Cutler at the age of 33 could, in theory, have five or more years left.
Jets: Last year, the Jets reluctantly paid Ryan Fitzpatrick $12 million to be the starter. This year, they could trade for Cutler at $12.5 million (plus up to $2.5 million in per-game roster bonuses). That comparison, along with the presence of Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenberg on the roster, makes Cutler a potential arrival in New York — even though ESPN.com reported in the aftermath of the hiring of Jeremy Bates, a twice-former Cutler tutor, as quarterbacks coach that the Jets won't be pursuing Cutler.
Bills: If they decide not to guarantee $27.5 million to Tyrod Taylor, the Bills need a quarterback. Enter Cutler, who arguably would walk through the door as the best signal-caller since the days of the Doug Flutie/Rob Johnson rigmarole. But a team that hasn't been to the playoffs since Johnson and Flutie were on the roster should think twice about embracing a quarterback who hasn't been there since 2010 — especially since Cutler may have no interest in spending his final years playing second fiddle in the AFC East to Tom Brady.
Chiefs: Adding Tony Romo makes sense because it can be argued that Alex Smith has taken the Chiefs as far as he can. That's still farther than Cutler would possibly take them. Given Cutler's personal playoff drought and his own durability questions, Cutler wouldn't be the potential upgrade that Romo could be.
Texans: It makes no sense to add Jay Cutler at his current salary or anything close to it, especially with Brock Osweiler getting $16 million fully guaranteed in 2017. It makes plenty of sense to consider Cutler as a backup, at backup-quarterback pay, if it gets to the point where no one wants Cutler as a starter and the Texans want a viable break-glass-in-emergency option if/when Osweiler fails during his second season with the team.
Broncos: I love good stories (because clickety-click-click), and a Cutler homecoming to Colorado would be a great story. It also is plausible, given that the football regime has completely changed since he was run out of town by Josh McDaniels and in light of the current in-house options. Last year, an effort to trade for Colin Kaepernick cratered because Denver didn't want to pay $12 million for one year. How much would John Elway and company be willing to pay Cutler? Ultimately, that could be the key to a potential reunion.
Washington: The case against tagging Kirk Cousins is a simple one. At $23.94 million for 2017 under the franchise tag, Washington could get someone nearly as good as Cousins for a lot less money, with the rest going to other players at other positions. Cutler, at roughly half the amount Cousins would cost, therefore makes sense to consider, if Washington is seriously considering not keeping Cousins.
Dolphins: I'm throwing this one in here primarily to troll Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald. Cutler had a strong season in 2015, when Dolphins coach Adam Gase ran the offense in Chicago. But as became clear during the 2016 season and the trade deadline approached, the Dolphins are all in with Ryan Tannehill, and they won't be adding Cutler.
Myles Garrett isn't the only top draft prospect who wishes the Cowboys would take him.
Former Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson said at the Davey O'Brien Award reception in Forth Worth, Texas, that he wants to be a Cowboy. Watson said that when he won the Davey O'Brien Award last year, he told Cowboys coach Jason Garrett that if he won the award again, the Cowboys would have to draft him. Watson did win the award again, so Watson wants the Cowboys to follow through.
"I like being in Fort Worth, Texas, and I promise you I'll be back here," Watson said. "And I told coach Garrett, 'If I'm back here, you have to draft me.' I know a lot of Cowboys fans, Tony Romo is healthy, Dak, I'm a huge fan, love that man, he's been successful, but hey, I did my part, you have to do your part. I'll see you at the Combine so we'll talk more about that."
There is, of course, exactly zero chance of the Cowboys trading Dak Prescott to draft Watson, and Watson surely knows that — he was laughing as he said it. But in Watson's perfect world, the Cowboys would acquire the first overall pick from Cleveland, and Watson would go to Dallas.
"The Browns do need a quarterback. You can trade both of them. They need two."
Watson was joking, as was Myles Garrett when he called for the Cowboys to draft him. But Browns fans may not find it so funny that top prospects keep talking about how they'd prefer to go elsewhere.
