For the past six years, we have looked forward to the Charity Fall Wine Festival put on by The Savory Grape wine and beer shop in East Greenwich. It's not often that you get to taste some good wine, meet nice people and get a little buzz on for a good cause. Needless to say, we were disappointed when we learned it was not going to be held this year and we asked Jessica Granatiero, the owner of the Savory Grape, why no wine fest this year?
"We've been busy with our new business, The Savory Affair," she explained. "We just didn't have the time, but we do intend to start it up again next year, after things settle down around here. We've had to regroup some this year."
The Savory Grape held the event annually from 2007 to 2012. The Charity Fall Wine Festival alternately gave the proceeds to the Rhode Island Community Food Bank and the Rhode Island Community Action Association. Over those six years, the festival raised a total of just over $80,000 for those organizations. It was held at various locations in the past, including the Greenwich Club, the Crowne Plaza in Warwick and The Dorrance in Providence.
The Savory Affair launched a new online video series, available at http://thesavoryaffair.com, focused on providing easy decorating and entertaining ideas to build good will for the new venture and to show off some of the neat ideas they have for entertaining.
"Our whole idea is based on the premise that you don't have to spend a lot of money to put on a great event," said Granatiero. "We have had some large corporate clients with big budgets, but we've also done a lot of smaller parties. We recently did a party for a man's wife's 40th birthday that was held in the East Greenwich Volunteer Firefighters' Hall. She was into belly dancing, so we turned the hall into a Mediterranean-themed restaurant for the evening, with a Mediterranean menu. You don't have to have a big event to have a memorable event and you don't always have to spend a lot of money."
A Delaware native, Granatiero moved to Rhode Island after she married a business executive from Cranston. Her education and background was in communications and public relations, but like so many students, she paid her way through college and early hard times by working in the hospitality business, meaning she was a bartender, a waitress and eventually a manager before she could support herself in public relations. She has worked in Washington, D.C., and in Cambridge, Mass., where she met her future husband, Nino, a 1985 graduate of Cranston West and later of URI. Her background in hospitality led her into the world of wine and beer, where she has become well known for the breadth of her knowledge of both.
But it is her imagination and flare for finding something special about an event to bring home to guests that has been encouraging her to broaden her involvement in entertainment, but she adamantly denies that she is a caterer or a typical event planner.
"Most planners offer you packages to choose from," she said. "With us, you get us. You tell us what your budget is and what you are trying to do and we offer ideas and concepts to get you what you want. We handle the logistics of it. We have caterers and florists we work with, but mostly we just produce events."
Produce is a good way of putting it. The Savory Affair has put on some events that resembled theatre. Guests at their events have been treated to the heavenly sound of harps and the startling pleasure of seeing statues come alive.
"With the holidays just around the corner, the first video in the Wine & Design series focuses on a timeless holiday tradition, the Pomander Ball. New Savory Affair Event Planner Alexandra Kreher explains how in just a few simple steps, you can have a beautiful decoration that delights the eyes and scents the home for the season," according to a recent news release touting the videos that can be viewed at www.thesvoryaffair.com.
"We are so excited to offer these new video vignettes that will provide quick tips for decorating, entertaining, wine pairing and hosting a fabulous gathering," said Granatiero, in her finest PR mode. "Our first video gives customers an easy way to accent their home and capture the spirit of the season."
Traditionally used in the mid-13th century, Pomander Balls were worn or carried in a vase to control not-so-nice smells. Today they're used as décor or potpourri for your home – plus they are simple, quick and inexpensive to make. In the two-minute video, Alexandra walks the viewer through a few easy steps to achieve a unique holiday look using only a few supplies: Oranges, toothpicks, whole cloves, cinnamon, a Ziploc bag and decorative ribbon.
Alexandra has been involved in the event industry in Rhode Island since 2009 and recently joined The Savory Affair team. She has served as the festival director of Bright Night Providence, the New Year's Eve Festival that takes place in downtown Providence each year.
Granatiero has an eye for talent in the event business. One of her most successful and consistently pleasant events is The Savory Grape itself. The staff will meet and greet you as you come in the door but take you seriously when you say, "Just looking," and leave you alone to browse among the products that are arranged according to their flavor and characteristics and not strictly by regions, varieties and price. It, in effect, reflects Granatiero's approach to events.
"Having a successful event doesn't necessarily have to be expensive," she said. "In fact, if it's planned right, an event could actually reduce costs. We don't need a lot of money. Obviously, that helps, but our real goal is to form long-lasting relationships with our personal and corporate clients."
That's all well and good, and we wish you luck, but we want our Charity Fall Wine Festival back. It makes doing good feel even better.

VOCALS: Combining aircraft observations and model simulations
June 2012 - Recent work comparing aircraft observations and high-resolution simulations leads to useful improvements for our weather and climate models.
Low-level clouds clouds are the most prevalent cloud type across the planet, covering approximately 20% of the Earth's surface at any time. They are low-level clouds and provide a net-cooling effect to the climate system, reflecting large amounts of solar radiation back into space. Only a small increase in the global coverage of stratocumulus would be required to counteract the warming effect of increasing greenhouse gases, whilst a small decrease could significantly magnify the effect. Over land, and on a local scale, the presence of stratocumulus can have a significant effect on the surface temperature, keeping temperatures cooler during the day time and warmer at night. Therefore understanding the physical processes that control the generation and evolution of this cloud type, and modelling them accurately, is of crucial importance for both weather forecasts and climate modelling. However, many current weather forecast and climate models struggle to accurately simulate these boundary layer clouds, e.g. Wyant et al. (2010).
The VAMOS Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study (VOCALS) is a major international program, the goal of which is to improve the scientific understanding of the coupled ocean-atmosphere-land system in the south-east Pacific. This region is of huge importance to the climate system, in part due to the presence of the largest subtropical stratocumulus deck on the planet, covering some 107 km2 of the Pacific Ocean, roughly equivalent in size to Europe. As part of the VOCALS program, a large international field experiment was undertaken during October and November 2008. A major component of the experiment was to make high quality observations of the stratocumulus deck, in order to develop improvements to how these clouds are represented in numerical models. Many scientists from around the globe took part during the intensive observational period, which involved five research aircraft including the FAAM BAe-146, two research ships, and two surface sites in northern Chile. Based from Arica, Chile, the FAAM aircraft was used to make measurements of the structure and composition of the cloud field during 13 research flights. Flight patterns included straight-and-level runs in the cloud and sub-cloud layers, and vertical profiles through the cloud to obtain in-situ measurements from the instrumentation on the aircraft. There were also high-level legs, along which dropsondes were released from the aircraft to obtain vertical profiles through the atmosphere.
Recently, the Unified Model (MetUM) has been used for a high resolution modelling case study, incorporating two of these flights on the 12 and 13 November 2008. Typically, the global model with its 25 km grid is the highest resolution model run in this region, whilst for climate modelling the grid-length is closer to 100 km (1 degree of longitude). This study included a fine resolution model with 4 km grid and even finer resolution model with 1 km grid, both similar to the UKV model, which due to their computational expense can only be run over relatively small regions of the south-east Pacific, with boundary conditions provided by lower resolution simulations.
Comparing the model simulations with the satellite picture shows that only the 1 km grid is able to produce realistic structure in the cloud field, with the 4 km grid surrounding the edge of the domain looking like a blurred version. The first flight transited at low level from the coast out to the region near 75°W, 19°S, where one of the research vessels was located. The second flight transited at low level along the 20°S latitude, taking low-level profiles on the way out, with a high-level return leg releasing dropsondes.
Careful analysis of these simulations and comparisons to observations taken from the research flights were able to demonstrate improvements that could be made in the way the MetUM simulates the growth of cloud water droplets and their transition into rain. In stratocumulus cloud, turbulence leads to the collision and coalescence of cloud water droplets near the cloud top. As the cloud droplets grow in size, they become too heavy to be kept near the cloud top by the ascent within the cloud, and start to fall towards the surface as raindrops. As they fall, they accrete more cloud droplets and continue to grow in size, until they exit the cloud base. In the sub-saturated air below the cloud, the raindrops start to evaporate, and reduce in size until they either evaporate completely or reach the surface. The MetUM simulates these processes, but the simulations were converting the cloud water into rain too easily, and the raindrops that were created were too large, meaning that they fell to the surface very quickly with little chance to evaporate. This resulted in the cloud layer being too thin and too near the surface, and the surface rain-rate being too high. By making it harder for the model to convert cloud water into rain, and reducing the size of the raindrops to match observations better, not only was the surface rain-rate improved in the simulations, but more water was left in the cloud layer, making the cloud thicker and higher, and a better comparison to the observations.
One paper (Boutle & Abel, 2012) describing these VOCALS comparisons has recently been published, but the insight and information gained from this observation-model comparison was able to drive developments to the global weather forecast and climate model configurations of the MetUM. Abel & Boutle (2012) showed that by improving the size of raindrops, the model representation of low-level clouds and precipitation across the globe was improved. This was useful for the forecast model, in which the improvement of cloud and precipitation processes also led to an improvement in near-surface temperatures and visibility forecasts. It was also of use for the climate model, allowing metrics such as dry-day frequency to be improved, a measure which is crucial for drought forecasting.

Arson is not normally associated with Catholic churches. However, someone paying attention to diocesan newspapers in the past month might think otherwise.
In early June the Intermountain Catholic of the Diocese of Salt Lake City reported that a church in West Jordan, Utah, was damaged twice by arson.
Recently, The Catholic Observer in the Diocese of Springfield, Mass., published an article detailing a parish in Chicopee, Mass., that had a new playground burned and melted (some parts were made of plastic) by an arson fire.

Annie and her underwear
I'm not posting the pictures. It's really not all that interesting to me. And, frankly, the suggestion that she did it on purpose for her Oscar campaign is... really dumb. How could that possibly, possibly be part of an Oscar campaign strategy...? Why would seeing pap shots of Anne Hathaway's pussy convince those old fart Academy members in Palm Springs -- who picked Crash over Brokeback, REMEMBER??? -- to vote for her? If, that is, they actually voted themselves. What's more likely is that their wives fill out the ballots. Which makes the whole intentional vaginal flash theory even more ridiculous -- can you imagine those huffy bitches actually checking off Annie's name if they thought she was baring her bits on purpose? Unfortunately, one day, the Academy's membership will consist of people like Kellan Lutz. And when that happens, a peek-a-boo crotch move might actually win someone an Oscar, sure. But we're at least 50 years away.
Some people though, even if they don't believe that Annie deliberately opened up for the cameras, are still blaming her for not wearing panties, maybe even some Spanx. Oh good, one of my favourite crusade topics: underwear is overrated and thongs and g-strings are gross.
If you've been reading my blog long enough, you know that I have the not wearing of underwear thing in common with Jon Hamm, only my anatomy is shaped differently. The advantage of the design of the female form is that nothing around there hangs. I never wear underwear under my jeans/chinos/leggings/whatever variety of pant available and you cannot see the contours of my business. This means that I'm not constantly picking something out of my ass, which is what happens in thong or a g situation. Do you know what a goddamn pain in the ass a thong or a g situation would have been under Annie's dress? And besides, the camera would have been there anyway, and no woman has a skinny enough pussy that it would be completely covered by that bullsh-t stupid underwear they expect us to wear on these occasions. You should read Caitlin Moran's rant on it in her book How To Be A Woman. You know how in porn movies they always show the woman going off when she's getting jackhammered from behind like it's the greatest pleasure she's ever known when that sh-t could not be more boring? She is pretending. Like how we have to pretend like thongs and g-strings actually have a job. They do not have jobs. Especially not when they're being concealed. NOT wearing them has more benefits -- because at least you're comfortable. And, God, why would someone who doesn't need to wear Spanx actually wear Spanx?!?!
Anyway, here's Annie at Hugh Jackman's event last night. As you can see, as opposed to when she was Tom Ford's dominatrix, she's smiling with teeth. I love how a dress can determine a smile now. She's probably also smiling because she, like me, is a no-underwear girl. And we will always be more comfortable than the ones who waste their time with the useless alternatives mashed down ass-cracks, accumulating discharge along the lower band. What?

Left-hander Richie Goodenow made his second start for the Bisons. He walked Isaac Ballou the first batter he faced. He then allowed Ballou to advance to second when he made a bad throw on a pickoff attempt. Ballou ran to third when Kenny Soccoro flied out to Tennyson Dodd at first. Victor Gomez singled to left field to score Ballou and give Marshall a quick 1-0 lead.
"That just set the stage," Lipscomb coach Jeff Forehand said. "You have to be ready to play right out of the chute. Marshall got that one run and any way you look at it that run turned out to be the difference.
"We've got to take care of our business in the first inning. Mistakes are going to happen. We can't give teams windows. We gave Marshall a window and they took advantage. When we are given windows we have to score."
The Bisons tied the game in the second. Dodd led off the inning with a double down the left field line. Rickey Coleman was out on a grounder to the pitcher, but Dodd moved to third. Kyle Henry reached base on a fielder's choice that allowed Dodd to score.
In the third the Bisons took a 2-1 lead. M.L. Williams started off the inning with a single to second base. After Lee Wilson flied out Williams stole second. Goodenow grounded out to the first baseman to send Williams to third. Josh Chism singled to center field to bring William's home.
In the fifth Marshall scored a pair of runs. With one out Ballou walked and then stole second. Socorro singled through the left side to plate Ballou. Gomez singled down the right field line to send Socorro to third. Thor Meeks flied out to right field to drive Socorro home on the sacrifice.
Goodenow, 0-1, pitched seven innings and threw 116 pitches. He struck out 10 and allowed four hits and three runs, two earned. He also walked three.
"In the first inning he throws 20 pitches," Forehand said. "If we make the plays he is out in 10 or 12 pitches and that gives him another inning.
"He puts us in a position to win. We just didn't win. We learned and we will win this type of game down the line."
Relievers Josh Cotham, Blake Fonfara, Chad Fromm and Gil Rehwinkel closed out the game. Combined they allowed only one hit and no runs.
Marshall right-hander Shane Farrell picked up the win. He pitched five innings and scattered five hits while giving up two runs, one earned. He struck out three and walked one.
Four Marshall relievers made appearances the rest of the way. They did not give up a run and only gave up two hits. Ian Kadid, who pitched the ninth, earned his first save of the season.
Gomez connected for three of the five hits for Marshall.
Goodenow, Chism and Dodd each had two hits for the Bisons. Goodenow and Dodd each slammed a double.
"While Richie is hot we are going to have to keep him in there swinging the bat," Forehand said.
Williams stole his fourth base of the season. He is perfect in four attempts.
"We did a lot of things that were positive," Forehand said. "Marshall made the right play at the right minute and we didn't. "When our bullpen comes on our offense is going to have to take off. Our offense is not all the way on right now, but it will be."
Right-hander Connor Sinclair will go to the mound for the Bisons Saturday at 2 against Marshall. The Bisons are 3-3. Marshall is 3-1.
The three-game series ends Sunday at 1.

ALFRED — Two days of closed-door court proceedings failed to produce a jury Wednesday for first trial of a major figure charged in a prostitution scandal centered on a Zumba dance studio in the seaside community of Kennebunk.
The remaining prospective jurors — about 50 to 60 out of an original jury pool numbering more than 140 — were told to return Thursday as the judge attempts to finish the selection process and begin opening statements in the trial.
Mark Strong Sr., 57, of Thomaston, faces 59 misdemeanor counts including conspiring with dance instructor Alexis Wright, who's accused of using her studio as a front for prostitution.
The married insurance agent has acknowledged having a physical relationship with Wright but said he never paid her for sex. Characterizing himself as a business partner, Strong said he helped Wright launch her studio by co-signing for her lease and loaning her money.
Strong and Wright have pleaded not guilty.
On NBC's "Today," Strong said Wednesday he's guilty of cheating on his wife but not of accusations of promoting prostitution or invasion of privacy for allegedly viewing sex videos featuring unsuspecting clients. He said he rejected a plea deal because he's innocent of the state charges against him.
The jury selection process in York County Superior Court has been cloaked in secrecy, with potential jurors questioned behind closed doors by the judge and lawyers.
Justice Nancy Mills on Wednesday rejected a request by The Portland Press Herald to open the proceedings to the public, and the selection process continued throughout the day even as the newspaper asked the state supreme court to intervene.
Lawyers have been ordered not to talk to reporters.
There are 72 names on the witness list for Strong's trial; those include at least three men who have been convicted of engaging with a prostitute, their lawyers have said.
Police said Wright kept meticulous records suggesting the sex acts generated $150,000 over 18 months. So far, more than 60 people have been charged or convicted in the case.
Wright, who lives in nearby Wells, faces 106 counts including prostitution and invasion of privacy. She will be tried at a later date.

Here's the full version of TNT's NBA season intro. It's "Days of Future Past," but with the NBA, basically, and it's so cool.
It's a glimpse of the regular season as it might be. Harden is MVP, the Thunder are the champions, and we see how a bunch of other familiar faces end up this season in TNT's alternate reality (sorry, Woody).
It's great—and spiritually it's the other half of the "NBA Forever" intro that came out Christmas Day two seasons ago, which spliced current NBA stars into games with legends Bird, Jordan, Barkley, and Russell.

Tesla Tech Fair celebrates innovation
The Dartmouth
April 5, 2013
A cacophony of hissing Tesla coils and whirring remote control helicopters filled Thayer School of Engineering's Glycofi Atrium on Thursday afternoon. Undergraduate students, professors and community members, including wide-eyed Boy Scouts, gathered around displays to learn about the inventions and legacy of Nikola Tesla at the Tesla Tech Fair.
The event featured a panel discussion highlighting Tesla's impact on modern society and exhibits by community members.
The panel focused primarily on the technical aspects of Tesla's inventions and the life of the inventor...
...The event aimed to include multiple disciplines to highlight Tesla's background and achievement, lead organizer and engineering professor Charles Sullivan said. At the event, exhibits displayed student applications of Tesla's work, including wireless phone chargers, alternating current power systems and induction motors.
Kathryn Waychoff '16 said she enjoyed the multidisciplinary environment.
"I think it's really cool that we're bringing history and art to engineering," she said. "I think a lot of times engineers are downplayed. This makes it look really fun."
The fair was scheduled to occur in conjunction with "Tesla in New York," an opera that will premiere at the Hopkins Center this weekend. The opera focuses on Tesla's genius and his struggle to distinguish between science and magic.
The fair was co-sponsored by the Hopkins Center and Thayer as part of Dartmouth's Year of the Arts initiative.

Where matters like this turn absurd is when people complain, complain and complain about the item, and then turn around and buy it anyway since they're "completists". If you are really upset with it, you should exercise your free will and don't buy the piece in question.

PARIS – (AFP) – Several high-profile European friendlies are set for Wednesday but friendly would not be the term to be used with how they have been viewed by hard-pressed club managers.
The 2006 World Cup final rematch of France and victors Italy, Germany taking on old rivals the Netherlands and England playing Sweden in a rematch of their thrilling Euro 2012 clash where the English prevailed 3-2 would normally have great appeal.
However, the only appeal the schedule seems to have engendered is an appeal from the club managers for a more reasonable approach to the international schedule while the friendlies have also been further weakened with a whole swathe of withdrawals because of injuries.
Leading the calls for reason to prevail were the usual suspects of Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger and Alex Ferguson of Manchester United, who are even more furious because these friendlies don't even serve a purpose for preparing for 2014 World Cup qualifiers as the next batch are in March.
"Friendly games at this time of year don't mean a thing to me," said Ferguson.
Wenger's main concern is his star midfielder Jack Wilshere who was recalled by England manager Roy Hodgson, after only playing three matches since a 17-month layoff with injury.
"It is as it is. He has played three games now, and of the three games only one was a full game. He has been out 17 months but I think it's good to have a little break after three games."
"You know what I think, that it is too early for him," he added.
Hodgson for his part tried to calm Wenger's fears over how long Wilshere will play.
"It will be a part of the game — it won't be a question of him starting the game and playing 90 minutes, which might be a bit much for him at international level at this moment," said Hodgson.
Wenger and Ferguson's criticisms have been the least of Hodgson's problems as he has to do without several key players including Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney, Chelsea players Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole and Arsenal winger Theo Walcott.
The Dutch will also have to do without a United star in the English Premier League's joint leading scorer Robin van Persie, who pulled out because of injury despite showing no signs of it in playing the entire match in the 3-2 win over Aston Villa on Saturday.
Klaas-Jan Huntelaar – who has a better record than van Persie for the national side and was unhappy that the United man got the nod ahead of him at the disastrous Euro 2012 campaign – should start up front.
The Germans – who are seeking to put behind them memories of letting slip a 4-0 lead over the Swedes in their World Cup qualifier last month and being held to a 4-4 draw – will also have to improvise up front as Mario Gomez is still coming back from injury and veteran Miroslav Klose picked up an injury at the weekend.
Joachim Loew is likely to put Borussia Dortmund star Marco Reus up front and whilst club managers may denigrate the worth of the friendlies they will not find German manager Oliver Bierhoff a sympathetic listener.
"We want to end this year in good fashion and win this prestigious duel here in the Netherlands," said Germany manager Oliver Bierhoff.
"It is important to be tested like this. Regarding planning for the season, we intend to face opponents like them often."
France coach Didier Deschamps has little time for the modern day footballer – his predecessors in the national hotseat Raymond Domenech and Laurent Blanc would probably concur – telling AFP last month they were the 'Why? generation'.
His conviction will only have been strengthened by comments made by one of the more senior players in his squad for the Italy game, one of their few world class players Franck Ribery.
"Here (at his club of six years Bayern Munich) it is always good, here I am happy and here it's fun.
"That is more important for me than the national team."
Ribery's remarks will only add grist to Wenger and Ferguson's mill.

Highly responsive touch controller with LED-based visual feedback
The CMC-FD (#H77578), CMC-CH (#H77575) and CMC-TP (#H77577) controllers introduce a newly developed, high-precision touch device that offers a whole new approach to DAW control. While the CMC-FD and CMC-CH house a high-precision touch fader with a resolution of up to 1,024 steps and integrated LED lights, the CMC-TP comes with a multi-functional touch slider.

CAIRO, July 7 (UPI) -- More than 150 Egyptians were killed during President Mohamed Morsi's rule, the Arab Network for Human Rights Information said.
During the first five months of his rule, four people were killed, the ANHRI said.
After Morsi declared a constitutional declaration on Nov. 21 and anger rose, 150 supporters and opponents of Morsi were killed in the seven months that followed.
Most of those victims were opponents of Morsi, al-Masry al-Youm reported.
The ANHRI also accused Morsi of spreading false information and inciting violence during protests at the presidential palace in December 2012.
He then said that some of the people arrested had been hired to kill protesters, but the attorney general's investigation later disproved that claim.
ANHRI said Morsi should face the same charged levied against former President Hosni Mubarak, who is accused of killing 841 Egyptians during the revolution.

AJ Daulerio's Cultural Oddsmaker runs every Friday. Email him to let him know what you think.
It's common knowledge what the life of a NFL coach entails during the season. The grueling 18-hour work days, suffocating pressure and lack of job security ensures that most of them are not the most fun people to be around. Their families sometimes feel the full brunt of this. For every unhealthily obsessed successful coach, there are always the accompanying battle scars of their success: sleeping in the office, hypertension and, most often, a total lack of recognition for what goes on in the outside world between August and January.
Sometimes, there's more serious collateral damage from this sacrifice - your family. Andy Reid's sons are currently atop the coaching casualty list thanks to their recent legal indiscretions and emotional troubles. Of course, it's a little quick to call them totally hopeless. Much of what the Reid kids are going through (in particular, the pill-popping, swerve-driving Britt) can be chalked up to just plain old growing pains. Granted, he's 22, a legal adult, but come on, who didn't do dumb shit when they were in their late teens/early 20s?
I know I did. In fact, I spent three separate nights in jail before my 22nd birthday. The charges:
• 1991, Ocean City, N.J.: Underage drinking
• 1992, Sea Isle City, N.J.: Underage drinking, public urination, indecent exposure
• 1995, Bethlehem, Pa: Public intoxication, assaulting police officer (dropped)
It's different, obviously, since I don't blame those little missteps on an absentee father. I'm more a product of my environment. It's definitely a gritty life in the farm animal-shaped, mailbox-lined streets of Churchville, Pa. When you spend a childhood riding Huffy bikes around well-lit cul-de-sacs, splashing around in-ground pools and playing soccer at St. Vincent De Paul's, ya grow up hard. Thank God I got out of there. I'd either be dead or in prison.
Andy Reid's troubled children may not be direct results of his profession. But Andy's all-night film sessions and meticulous coaching nature leave little time for him to be a part of his family's everyday life. Britt Reid won't be the last to get swallowed up by this cruel reality of the NFL coaching lifestyle. In fact, given his "problems," he actually might be one of the lucky ones.
So this week, I'm running around, robbing banks all wacked off of Scooby Snacks, and placing odds on the next NFL coach's family to fall apart.
Let's go check in on that cat and silver spoon, after this MORE.
Brian Billick: 1/2
This guy's been a dick since the first moment a microphone was stuck in his face. The Baltimore Ravens head coach is an unabashed self-centered tyrant, a bully, and there's not an airplane hangar big enough to store his ego. Brian Billick is convinced that's the solar system buzzing around his head each day. His approach to coaching has to spill over to family life, and it's probably his younger daughter Keegan who'll most likely suffer. How awful must it be to grow up in a house with a Dad who's written a book called " Competitive Leadership: 12 Principles for Success"? She probably related to Little Miss Sunshine on a personal level. Now, she's a college field hockey player at THE Ohio State, but who's to say she's not spending her weekends carving "Fuck You Dad" into her forearm with a screwdriver and taking her patriarchal frustrations out on top of the faces of the Buckeyes offensive line? Yeah, DAD, which chapter talks about how I can be "successful" at THAT?
Mike Holmgren:1/1
Another hot-head who has probably missed most of his family life due to football. Holmgren's temper is legendary, and he's always resorted to barking orders and having very little patience for people who don't respect them. Just ask Marty Mornhinweg about the time he played a tape of Holmgren's high school doo-wop group for Packers players. Marty shit a ghost. So far, it appears like Holmgren's dodged a bullet with his four daughters — one's a successful doctor, another's a lawyer — but resentments have a way of festering and revealing themselves later in life. Sure, Dr. Calla Holmgren sounds like she's got her act together, but there's a reason she chose gynecology as her medicinal field. She grew up hating men. Oh, and she loves a daily dose of uterine lining. YOUR FAULT, Coach.
Mike Nolan:1/3
The San Francisco 49ers coach's decision to wear a suit on the sidelines tells you a lot about his character. The man likes to keep up appearances and has no tolerance for people lacking self-respect.
He's young, but he embraces a military-sense of discipline. His poor sons have probably had a childhood of daily bed checks and inspirational sayings from Korean War vets taped to their foreheads while they sleep. Of course his two young daughters can look forward to their young adult years filled with constant demands for longer skirts, extra buttons on blouses and background checks on all their boyfriends. Nolan should be hopeful their rebellion doesn't come in the form of double-teaming Kevan Barlow one day. But his sons will probably live a life comparable to Ricky Fitts, wandering around with video cameras videotaping their neighbors reading on the toilet.
Bill Belichick: 1/8
He's just terrifying. Growing up with Bill Belichick must have been like growing up with Martin Sheen when he was filming Apocalypse Now. Just a dark, haunted man, whose connection to humanity was lost sometime during his press conference turning down the Jets job. After that, he willingly accepted the Robert Kraft anal probe and left all remnants of his past life behind. His soon to be Rutgers Lacrosse playing son, Stephen, has already been busted for smoking pot. Most likely, Belichick's already given up on the other two and left them to fend for themselves and learn their life lessons on their own; it's a cold and cruel world, but you must learn to survive in it wearing only a gray sweatshirt.

It has been a quiet fall for the UCLA basketball team.
Less attention. Less NCAA scrutiny. Fewer expectations.
A year ago, UCLA brought in what was thought to be the nation's No. 1 recruiting class. With it came NCAA investigators and a spotlight's glare.
UCLA had an attorney attend its basketball media day, monitoring what was being asked and said. The four freshmen — Jordan Adams, Kyle Anderson, Shabazz Muhammad and Tony Parker — were kept at a safe distance from reporters.
The NCAA was still investigating eligibility concerns about Muhammad and Anderson. Ben Howland, then the head coach, had basically been told to win or go home. (He won a Pac-12 Conference regular-season title and was still sent packing.)
It was the opening act to a tumultuous season.
The indifference to this year's media day last month was a welcome relief to those not involved with ticket sales.
"I'm liking the low-key feel to it," senior forward Travis Wear said. "It is a lot less hectic."
UCLA opens its season Friday against Drexel in Steve Alford's debut as coach of the Bruins. It's the follow-up to a season on the brink.
UCLA couldn't get past Minnesota in the first round of the NCAA tournament, Howland was fired, and Muhammad became the first-round pick of the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves.
Adams, Anderson and Parker returned to Westwood and seem happy that freshman season is behind them.
"We had the No. 1 recruiting class coming in, so everyone was hyped about that," Adams said. "That's what everything was about. UCLA had guys at media day making sure that no one asked the wrong question and that everything went smoothly."
This season things actually went smoothly, though fewer reporters came around to take a look.
"We don't have all the attention, we can just focus on basketball," Adams said. "That's the way we want it to go this year."
There is chance that could happen.
Muhammad is a distraction elsewhere. He was sent home from the NBA's rookie transition program this summer for a rules violation. His father, Ron Holmes, has been indicted on federal fraud charges.
The Bruins know that chaos well. They seemed saturated in Muhammad upheavals last season.
He wasn't cleared by the NCAA until the fourth game. His Gucci backpack raised eyebrows and speculation. His reaction to Larry Drew II's game-winning shot against Washington was criticized. Muhammad was asking for the ball when Drew pulled up to shoot and he was the only player who didn't join in the celebratory dog pile.
"As player, you don't get caught up in that," Wear said. "Yeah, you read some stuff. That didn't really affect what was going on on the court."
Off the court was a different matter. "When you're having to deal with the questions about it, that was distracting," Wear said.
It wasn't just Muhammad.
Parker considered transferring because of limited playing time. Adams suffered a broken foot during a Pac-12 tournament semifinal, severely crippling the Bruins' chances of NCAA tournament success. Howland's status seemed to change daily.
After beating Washington at Pauley Pavilion in February, Howland received a pat on the back from Senior Associate Athletic Director Mark Harlan. A month later, after the Bruins beat Washington in Seattle to clinch the conference regular-season title, Athletic Director Dan Guerrero was noticeably absent from the celebration after having sat behind the UCLA bench.
"It wore on us a bit," Anderson said. "There was a lot of pressure."
Now a new, far less heralded freshman class has come in: guards Bryce Alford, Noah Allen and Zach LaVine. The Bruins have 12 players on scholarship after finishing last season with eight.
"We can just focus on basketball," Anderson said. "We are ready for some basketball. That's the way we want to go this year."

Mayor Bill Carpenter to name Robert Hayden, former Lawrence police chief, to head the Brockton Police Department
BROCKTON – The leadership of the Brockton Police Department might be heading for change in the near future, but this change is going to cost a few dollars.
On Friday, Police Chief Emanuel Gomes will return to his former position of captain, while the City Council begins deliberating this week on a proposed ordinance that would replace the position of police chief with a civilian police commissioner.
However, under the terms of an agreement reached between Gomes, the City of Brockton and the Police Supervisor's Union, Gomes will be compensated for consulting and advising the incoming chief or commissioner until March 31, 2015, the date when his contract as chief was set to expire.
In fiscal 2014, Gomes is slated to receive $17,314.50 for "transitional consulting differential," and in fiscal 2015, that figure will jump to $34,896.64.
Gomes will also receive a $20,601.60 lump sum payment for sick and vacation days that he accrued as chief.
However, Mayor Bill Carpenter, said that the city was obligated to pay Gomes the additional income to honor the year he had left remaining on his contract as chief.
"The only way you could have this transition is we had to settle up with him for his service as chief," Carpenter said. "He had a right to expect us to and I had an obligation to honor the obligations of his contract."
That means Brockton will be paying Gomes almost $73,000 in addition to his salary as a captain by March 31, 2015. Gomes will also retain use of the Ford Taurus vehicle currently assigned to him during that time as well.
Under the proposed ordinance currently before the City Council, the city will also be paying a commissioner $149,000 per year, once someone is hired to fill that position if the ordinance passes as written.
The $149,000 that a commissioner would be paid is about $15,000 less than Gomes' annual salary as chief.
However, the first year of a commissioner's contract and the compensation Gomes is due for the last year of his chief's contract are likely to overlap, meaning citizens will essentially be paying for two department heads for that year.
The rest of the members of Brockton's Police Supervisor's Union also stand to benefit from the deal with all members scheduled to receive a 1 percent increase in their annual compensation for firearms training from 5 to 6 percent of base pay.

The many faces of Sandybridge motherboards
Subject: Motherboards | October 18, 2011 - 06:21 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom

When building a SandyBridge system you have several types of motherboard chipset to choose from, some with more capabilities than others. The ASUS Maximus IV Extreme B3 is the odd duck in this roundup, being the only P67 board in an Z68 round up which means that it loses out on Intel SRT, which is not a drawback for those planning on using an SSD with a high enough capacity to be used as a main drive. The two Gigabyte boards and the Sapphire board are Z68 and therefore sport all of the bells and whistles that come with that chipset. In terms of pure performance and overclocking ability it is not the feature set that matters, it is the ability of the board its self. Check out which of these 4 boards reigns supreme in Neoseeker's benchmarks here.
"A quartet of motherboards based the Intel P67 and Z68 chipsets arrives at Neoseeker's labs, covering both the value and enthusiast market spectrums. There just might be something for everyone with a Intel LGA 1155 socket CPU in our latest motherboard roundup."

How do you surpass the ASUS Maximus III? Add a V and go for four

Tagged: asus, maximus iv extreme, lga1155, p67, NF200, x68
The ASSU Republic of Gamers is a fast growing family line, the newest arrival being the ASUS Maximus IV Extreme. That pairs the Intel X68 chipset with the nForce 200 MCP to give you additional PCIe lanes. In fact you can manually tweak the PCIe lanes assigned to the PCI3 16x slots, a feature that experienced overclockers will probably use frequently. Speaking to the overclockers, [H]ard|OCP wanted to stress two very important capabilities of the board, not only did it hit 5.1GHz at a CPU voltage of 1.475v, it also boasted the lowest temperatures that [H] saw on their watercooling rig. This board is not for the plug and play crowd but for the enthusiast crowd it will shine.
"ASUS expands its Intel based Republic of Gamers line once again with the Maximus IV Extreme. This motherboard has a lot to live up to as each Maximus before this was nothing short of excellent and quite possibly the best motherboards available at the time of release. The Maximus IV Extreme continues the tradition and exceeds expectations."

A Sapphire and platinum motherboard; gaudy or a work of art?
Subject: Motherboards | August 31, 2011 - 12:06 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: x68, sandy bridge, sapphire pure platinum
Sapphire has been busy making a name for themselves as a high end motherboard maker in addition to their graphics card models. The Sapphire Pure Platinum Z68 is their first foray into SandyBridge and comes with a long host of features common to the Z68 platform as well as features common to Sapphire's GPUs such as a dual BIOS. Hi Tech Legion had a great time overclocking with this board both manually and with the help of Sapphire's TriXXX software, getting a i5-2500K all the way to 4.74GHz. Read on to see this impressive board in action.
"The Pure Platinum Z68 is the Sapphire's first entry for the Z68 chipset of Intel, which is capable of technologies such as Smart Response and Virtu. The Sapphire Pure Platinum Z68 includes 4 DIMM slots with support of up to 16GB of RAM with speeds of up to 1600+MHz. For network connectivity, the Sapphire Pure Platinum Z68 has a Marvell chip controlled Gigabit LAN port and wireless capability via a Bluetooth 2.1 receiver. Storage options are many in the Pure Platinum Z68, with 8 total SATA ports; 4 SATA II with RAID 0,1,5,10 and AHCI controlled by the Z68 chipset, while there are 2 SATA III ports also controlled by the Z68 and the last 2 are controlled by Marvell's controller. Peripherals on the Z68 Pure Platinum are 2 USB 3.0 with up to 12 total USB 2.0 ports (including the USB headers), with 4 on the rear panel."

TUCSON, Ariz. – Playing their first preseason game of the year outside Southern California, the LA Galaxy fell 3-2 to the New England Revolution on Wednesday night in the first game of the Desert Diamond Cup. Edson Buddle and Mike Magee scored for the Galaxy but a second half goal from New England's Jeremiah White broke a 2-2 tie and gave New England a win in the first game of the day at Kino Veterans Memorial Stadium.
The Revolution wasted no time getting on the scoreboard, with Benny Feilhaber beating Josh Saunders with a bicycle kick from close range to give his team a 1-0 win in the second minute. Kelyn Rowe sent a cross into the box from the right wing and the Galaxy defense was unable to cleanly clear the ball away, allowing Feilhaber the opportunity to put his team in front.
WATCH: Full Match Highlights
The Galaxy settled in following the early goal and began to create opportunities at the other end of the field with Mike Magee, who was making his first appearance in a preseason game since February 3 and Edson Buddle each going close.
Saunders helped keep the score 1-0 in the 18th minute when he tipped a Saer Sene shot onto the crossbar before LA were able to equalize in the 31st minute. David Beckham was the creator for that goal, sending his second chance cross to the far post for Buddle, who rose above his marker to power a header past Matt Reis and tie the score at 1-1. That was Buddle's first goal of the preseason and his first against an MLS opponent since the 2010 MLS Cup Playoffs.
READ: Buddle does what Buddle does best: score goals
The score would remain level for just five minutes before the Revolution pulled back in front when Colombian defender John Lozano attacked a Rowe corner kick and directed his header off the post and in, past Saunders for a 2-1 New England advantage.
After the goal, the Galaxy pushed forward immediately to get an equalizer before halftime and that effort was rewarded in the 39th minute when Magee scored his first of the preseason. His long range shot deflected off New England defender Darrius Barnes and left Matt Reis stranded, tying the score at 2-2 going into the break.
Postgame with Arena, Buddle, Beckham
At halftime, Juninho came on for his first appearance of the preseason and almost put his team in front with a trademark long range effort, only to see his shot go just over the cross bar at the hour mark.
In the 74th minute, the Revolution pulled back in front for a third and final time when Alec Purdie, just seconds after coming into the game, played a perfectly weighted pass into the path of Jeremiah White, who got in behind the LA defense and slid a shot under Saunders to give New England a 3-2 victory.
The Galaxy will train on Thursday and Friday before returning to action on Saturday evening when they take on Real Salt Lake. That game kicks off at 5 p.m. (PT) and can be seen live online at www.lagalaxy.com/gamedaylive where fans will be able to chat and interact with one another during the game.

Friday, June 28, 2013 - Wank Party 2013 #05, Part 1
Latest Sets at WilliamHiggins.com
We have a wonderful line-up for Wank Party 2013 #5, Borek Sokol, Jan Faust, Robert Drtina and Lukas Pribyl. In this first part we find all 4 guys in the fitness room. Borekis holding the punch bag for Robert as Jan and Lukas exercise. The Jan asks Lukas to help him with his pull ups. Lukas moves over and assists his friend. Then they swap places so that Lukas can do some pull ups too. Borek changes places with Robert as well, on the punch bag. As Robert encourages Borek the other two stop and watch. Robert calls across to them and they all start to chat, as Lukas takes a turn on the punch bag. As they chat about what else they might try Lukas suggests some "special" exercises. With that they begin to touch each other and start to kiss. Soon hands are in each other's shorts and then cocks are out and being wanked. Jan gets hard very quickly and Borek drops to his knees and sucks on that dick. Lukas does the same for Robert, his mouth eagerly gorging on a rock hard cock. Borek sucks on Jan's dick and his own cock gets very hard. He stands and moves, with Jan, over to the others. Lukas, spies them and turns to suck on Borek's cock as Jan wanks Robert. Lukas is eager for more and turns to suck Jan's cock too. In fact he quickly takes turns on all three throbbing cocks. He really works hard, keeping all those cocks nice and hard, as he takes turns. Then the guys pair up with Jan on his knees sucking Robert's big cock, and Borek servicing Lukas. Robert is keen to suck too and he drops to his knees, as Jan stands, and takes sucks his new friend. Lukas takes hold of Borek's head, pushing it further down his cock shaft. The guys then all stand close together wanking each other as Lukas and Robert kiss. Then Robert turns and kisses Jan as well as he wanks both guys. They all move again, with Lukas bent over, presenting his ass so that Jan can rim his tight hole. Robert lays on his back, with his legs in the air for Borek to tongue his hole too. Robert loves the feel of that hot tongue on his hole and wanks himself as he feels it. This first part has been a wonderful beginning to the wank party, with four very good looking guys. Part 2 cannot come soon enough for me.
Zdeno Jaro is aged 19 and comes from Lostice. He is a student who likes Parkour and jogging. He is a very attractive guy. After a nice interview, in English he lays, on his back, on the bed and begins to explore his body with his hands. They roam all over lifting the tee-shirt to expose some skin. As the shirt comes off we see Zdeno's hot chest. He soon removes the jeans as well and takes hold of his cock, beginning to wank it. As he plays with himself we see his ass raising up and down from the bed, with his hole exposed. He explores it with his hand as he wanks. Then a helping hand arrives and drips some oil on Zdeno's chest. The hands begin to massage the oil into Zdeno's chest as he continues to wank himself. As the hands work over Zdeno's hot body they also find his cock, rubbing over it gently. His cock gets very hard from the gentle touching and soon it shoots a creamy load all over his leg. The hands milk that cock completely for Zdeno before leaving him to relax a while. Then he moves to the shower to clean up after a very nice shoot.
Daniel Just is aged 18 and he lives in Hostivice. A student, Daniel enjoys music, fitness and cycling. He is a very nice looking guy, with an emo hairstyle. As he removes his tee-shirt is becomes clear that Daniel's time in the gym has given him a very nice body too. He looks very good indeed. After some posing to show of that lovely chest Daniel lowers his jeans and shows off his cock and balls. The cock is soft and his balls hang very low. Laying back on the bed Daniel lifts his legs to remove the jeans completely, showing off his hot ass. Then he kneels on the bed to give a better view of that ass, with the cheeks nicely spread. Daniel stands up to show off that hot body some more. His cock also grows after some play so we get some lovely views of it as well. What a very good looking guy and a most enjoyable shoot.
Our first Wank Party of 2013 was a really good one. With Marek Piska, Rudy Bodlak, Filip Cervenka, Filip Klatic and Filip Pendrak we had assembled a very good cast indeed. Now we have this backstage video from that Wank Party, showing all those sexy guys having a great time, as they work with our crew to bring us a wonderful scene. It's always nice to see these backstage views of everybody interacting so well as they create the sccenes for us, and this one is very good indeed.

I prefer airtime as well, but there is nothing wrong with the guys that want to battle it out in racing !
Whats wrong with all the guys that are so ignorant against the other facets of our sport - why is everyone thinking only his "style" is the true kiting stuff ? All this war between oldschool, wakestyle, dangling, kite low/high, and now racing.
Why not let everybody do what he wants ?
