Here is what happens when a bicyclist kills a pedestrian.
"The Marin County bicyclist who fatally struck a pedestrian crossing the street in San Francisco's Castro neighborhood was sentenced Thursday to three years of probation and 1,000 hours of community service."
Lets see how they will handle this? Will it be equal justice?

Dear Curious,
The SFPD doggedly pursued the case you mentioned. Released tons of information during the investigation. And settled to avoid possibly losing in trial.
In the case mentioned above, the SFPD did NOTHING until they were presented with a video they said didn't exist and contacted by the family's lawyer. They did worse than nothing. Sgt Ernst came by the memorial to hassle family, friends and cyclists.
So, no, they will not handle it the same and it won't be equal justice.
Drivers who kill cyclists and stay around and cooperate with police are very rarely charged with anything. Quit whining that for once the SFPD is doing their job.

She was a member of our community and now she's gone. Car to bicycle, or bicycle to pedestrian, imagine how you would feel if she was your daughter and on the losing end of the equation. And to make matters worse, if that's even possible under these circumstances, with video apparently showing wrongfully so. Very sad. My heart goes out to Amelie's family and friends.

Senseless disregard to others safety that is so prevalent wether we are driving, cycling or walking.
And to add misconduct by the San Francisco police to a tragedy is reprehensible.
My condolences to Amélie Le Moullac's family and friends

I would like to openly thank all members of the community who have so much love and support to our family after the tragic loss of our dear Amelie.
We miss her terribly.

Hendersonville City Council voted 3-1 Thursday to refund a water department fee paid by a sitting member in 2011, choosing to "right a wrong," as one member said, despite protests from another that councilmen should not benefit economically from the city.
Councilman Jerry Smith cast the sole "no" vote. The rest of the board agreed to credit the account of Miller's Laundry and Cleaners, owned by Councilman Jeff Miller, $10,875 in impact fees he paid to relocate part of his business in 2011. The fees, known as a system development charge, became a bone of contention that spurred Miller to run for his council seat in 2013.
"I know this on the surface is a difficult situation because of my position now. I spent the last two days going over ethics and stuff with the UNC School of Government, and this one I think could be used to teach a class in it at some point, but I personally believe this is an easy decision," Miller said. "I think this is about right and wrong. It's about keeping your word as a board."
Miller said his battle with system development charges, imposed on new homes and businesses that impact the city's water and sewer system, started about eight years ago when he relocated a business in the Laurel Park Shopping Center to Highway 64. He was charged $12,000 to connect the water lines.
"Much of that was a system development charge," he said. "I was told that it was because of this new business, but it wasn't a new business; it was the transfer of another."
That was his first skirmish, he said. "I was told basically to either pay it or not have a coin laundry ... or not have water, and it's kind of hard to have a coin laundry without water."
Five years later, he said, he wanted to transfer his laundry service for summer camps — a service established decades ago in his 99-year-old business — from Miller's Laundry on King Street to 620 Brevard Road. The new location offered him the only chance to upgrade the equipment needed to handle his service's capacity, he said. The new equipment trimmed his company's water use at two locations.
Miller was charged another $12,000 in September 2011. Between $10,000 and $11,000 of the price tag was for a system development charge, also referred to as an impact fee, he said.
"Now, there was no impact on our system because there was nothing new," he said. "When I was charged this, I immediately went to City Manager Bo Ferguson. ... I stated my case. I made a formal complaint or formal request, even told him I was so aggravated at these total of $24,000 (in fees) that I was considering a lawsuit."
Waiting game
Miller said Ferguson told him he took the issue to City Council. Afterward, he sent Miller an email advising him to wait about two years before bringing his request for a refund before the council. After two years, the city would be able to see the difference in past and current water use.
"You asked for two years and I agreed to that," Miller said. "The matter came up again when I came back and asked for some type of opportunity to get before you and see what had happened. Bo sent me an email on the following night that the city was going to change the system" fees.
A new rate formula was approved by the council in 2012, and it was revised in 2013 to the current policy.
Commercial system development charges spiked exponentially after the changes in 2012.
"When I requested the city water and sewer to give me a reading and give me an idea of what my charges would be now, as opposed to when I did it three years ago ... that was when I got the shock that rather than $12,000 ... $25,000 (would be the amount in 2012). But I was told that I didn't have to pay the $13,000 extra, which I really appreciated," he said. "That's when I really got to the point I was very aggravated. It's no secret that the whole reason, the big reason I ran for council, was my absolute just frustration with this system development charge and how I've been handled."
Using the impact fees and his struggle with the system as a battle cry, Miller joined the race for council. The fees were lowered to more business-friendly rates and approved by council in October 2013.
Miller's two-year waiting period ended in September, while he campaigned for a council seat.
"I wish the old council prior to my coming on had had an opportunity to vote on my request without me being on there, because immediately people start looking when a council member gets a favorable opinion on something like this. But this is an eight-year battle," he said.
Miller offered council members a copy of an email from Ferguson citing the waiting period. The email was dated Oct. 4, 2011.
"I asked for the refund three years ago. I backed off at City Council's request, and I gave you the two years so you could watch my water consumption.
"Now, I happen to sit on City Council. Am I going to be punished in this consideration because of that?" he asked.
Council members voted to waive the system development charge for Boyd Chevrolet in November, after the company showed a reduction of more than half of its water use at its new location on Spartanburg Highway. In the past, the council also has granted a refund of charges to a veterinary clinic on Highway 191, according to Councilman Steve Caraker.
Connet said he could not find another case of a sitting city council member requesting a refund of the system development charge.
"In my opinion, the only precedent you're setting is that you're showing the City Council keeps its word, and it's giving you a fair hearing," Miller said. "I know we have to worry about public perception, but this will come back on me more than anything now, and I'm perfectly willing to sit in front of anyone and answer questions on it."
"The only comment I have with regard to what Mr. Miller has said is, as a member of City Council since 2009, I'm just not aware of any commitment that was made to anyone," Smith said. "And so the statement that (we're) going back against a promise or going back against a commitment, I have to take issue with that, because I don't think we made that commitment."
"I don't think anybody said they made a commitment to repay it. They made a commitment to giving me a fair hearing," Miller said.
Citing the waiver of fees for Boyd Chevrolet and the veterinary clinic, Caraker said, "I think this follows right along with that. ... I think it's the right thing to do, is all."
"We took it out of Boyd's like we should have, and I think we should do this," Mayor Pro-tem Ron Stephens said. "If you were 'John Jones,' I would be reacting the same way at this request. It has nothing to do with you being on City Council. I think it also indicates that it was a big mistake because you are the only one, and Boyd was the next one, and we know of several businesses that did not go forward because of this regulation (of system development charges), because of the exorbitant cost."
"Well, unlike my colleagues on the council here, unfortunately, in my mind, I cannot escape the fact that a sitting member of City Council is asking the City Council to pay back a system development charge, which is something the City Council has never done before as far as I'm aware," Smith said. "It does have an impact on my decision the fact that it is a sitting City Council member making this request."
"What if I weren't?" Miller asked.
"I don't have that option today," Smith replied.
"So you're treating me differently than a taxpaying citizen because I'm a council member. That's what you're saying?" Miller asked.
"In this situation, yes," Smith replied. "You're asking us to do something that we've never done before, and you are a sitting city council member, and I don't know any other way to put it."
"But when I requested it originally, I wasn't," Miller volleyed.
"The request that you're making now and the way that you're putting it now has never been made in this form before us like you're doing right now. So, I can't help it," Smith said. "I'm not saying that the city necessarily made all the right decisions, but the result of your request is that a sitting City Council member gets an economic benefit for something that they're requesting."
Mayor Barbara Volk said she could set aside the fact that Miller is a council member.
"I wish it had been taken care of when the initial request was made. And I do feel that whether it was said in so many words or not, there was something of a promise from city staff that this would be taken care of ... several years ago," she said.
"The charge was made before you even considered running for council," Stephens added.
Caraker made a motion that City Council credit Miller's Cleaners for the city's "wrongful, in my opinion, system development charges" paid in 2011.
"I do believe (that) in doing this, I helped point out an issue that needed to be corrected.
"And I did save the city money because I'm not kidding you, it was going to go to a lawsuit. I was going to do whatever because to me, it was so unfair," Miller said.
In other action, the council:
◆ Welcomed the city's new finance director, Lisa White, who joined the city staff on Jan. 6.
◆ Heard a presentation from Carrie Turner of Land-of-Sky Regional Council about GroWNC, a three-year project focused on ensuring future growth in the region has a positive impact on the communities of Western North Carolina. The project is funded by a $1.6 million grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development through the Partnership for Sustainable Communities. The Land-of-Sky Regional Council serves as the grant administrator and coordinating agency.
◆ Approved a grant request from the Henderson County Human Relations Council of $250 to support the board's annual Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Breakfast.
◆ Agreed to form a business advisory committee to advise the board on policy issues that might affect local businesses — an idea broached by Stephens.
The committee would be manned by seven to nine members, initially serving three-year, two-year and one-year staggered terms. The committee would serve in an advisory capacity only. The council decided to revisit the need for the advisory committee in a year.
◆ Approved an amendment to the city's sponsorship policy to only allow water bill inserts advertising special events or projects for which the city is listed as a sponsor or co-sponsor.
◆ Approved a new contract management policy that specifies who must approve and sign contracts or agreements on behalf of the city and requires a review form be signed by all parties before the contract is executed.
◆ Approved a new adverse weather policy which included a provision that would not pay employees working from home.
◆ Caraker asked that a breakfast be held for the city's employees who worked outside on one of the coldest days in the city's history Tuesday. The breakfast will be held to thank the employees.

Phillies Short Hops: Game 1
Lee's gem, timely hitting spark defending champions
By David Gurian-Peck / MLB.com
In < 25 words ...
Cliff Lee was phenomenal in his first career postseason start, and Philadelphia scored five runs in the middle innings to claim Game 1.
Raul Ibanez hit just .228 after June 2. But nine years after his last postseason appearance, he delivered the game-changing blow Wednesday. In the fifth, the Phillies were scraping for their first run against a dominant Ubaldo Jimenez when Ibanez laced a 3-1 changeup down the first-base line for an RBI double. The Citizens Bank Park crowd erupted and the Phillies never looked back, chasing Jimenez one inning -- and four runs -- later. Big number
16 -- Consecutive batters retired by Lee. After Yorvit Torrealba doubled in the second, Lee did not allow another baserunner until Garrett Atkins doubled with two outs in the seventh.
Game balls
Lee made life easy for Phillies manager Charlie Manuel, who did not have to maneuver through an unsettled bullpen. Instead, Lee went the distance, allowing just six baserunners and striking out five.
Werth worked a leadoff walk to set the stage for Ibanez's go-ahead single. He also singled in the second inning and, in the fifth, launched a high fly ball to center that fell for a triple. And for good measure, he recorded an outfield assist, nailing Yorvit Torrealba at third base.
After breaking the scoreless tie in the fifth, Ibanez picked up his second RBI with a single to right in the fifth. He is now a career .417 (5-for-12) hitter in Division Series play.
Sense of October
Geoff Jenkins, who is now out of baseball, threw out one of two ceremonial first pitches as the Phillies try to channel the magic from their 2008 World Series run.
Jayson Werth
Comment: Werth, who hit .309 during last year's postseason, was in the middle of both big Phillies innings.
Cliff Lee
9 IP, 1 R, 6 H, 0 BB, 5 Ks
Comment: Lee breezed through the Rockies' lineup, tossing 113 pitches. It was his third complete game -- and nearly his third shutout -- since joining the Phillies in July. Lee also singled and became the first pitcher in Phillies postseason history to record a stolen base.
"The crowd got pretty fired up, so I took a little second to look around and soak it all in." -- Lee, on the ninth inning of his first postseason appearance
Next step
For Game 2, the Phillies hand the ball to Cole Hamels, the MVP of the 2008 NLCS and World Series. The left-hander had a tough regular season, but with another postseason gem, Hamels could deliver a 2-0 series lead.

DETROIT - The general counsel of a Detroit pension fund was suspended Monday without pay after being charged with bribery and conspiracy involving more than $200 million in investment.
The General Retirement System board members voted to remove Ronald Zajac of his role. An interim counsel will be appointed.
Zajac and Paul Stewart, a former trustee of Detroit's Police and Fire Retirement System were charged last Wednesday.
U.S. Attorney Barbara L. McQuade added Zajac and Stewart as defendants in a superseding indictment that already had charged former city Treasurer Jeffrey Beasley and investment sponsor Roy Dixon with the bribery and kickback conspiracy
Details of Zajac's alleged bribery conspiracy
According to McQuade's office, Zajac served as the general counsel of Detroit's two pension funds, the General Retirement System and the Police and Fire Retirement System, from 1982 through 2012.
In November 2012, the Board of Trustees of the Police and Fire Retirement System terminated Zajac as general counsel. Zajac still served as the General Counsel of the General Retirement System.
According to the 13-count superseding indictment, between January 2006 and April 2009, Zajac and Stewart conspired with Beasley, Dixon, and other individuals to defraud current and retired employees of the city of Detroit of their right to the honest services of former mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, Beasley, Stewart, and other Trustees free from bribery and corruption. During the the conspiracy, Stewart accepted thousands of dollars in cash, trips, entertainment and other things of value from people seeking investments from the Police and Fire Retirement System.
Stewart accepted a $5,000 casino chip, a Christmas basket that included an envelope with thousands of dollars in cash, a cash payment of $2,500 during a trip to New York City, a cash payment of $2,500 during a trip to Florida, an excursion to the Bahamas for Stewart and his mistress, and a trip to Naples, Florida for Stewart and his mistress.
In addition, Stewart accepted a "birthday present" of $5,000 in cash at a party at the Atheneum Hotel.
Zajac organized the party, and Zajac solicited and collected the cash from people having business before the Boards of Trustees of the pension funds. Zajac also collected and delivered an additional $5,000 in cash for a second pension fund trustee at the same party. At a party in January 2007, Zajac collected and delivered thousands of dollars in cash for former Treasurer and Trustee Beasley.
Zajac accused of bribery to raise money for Kilpatrick Civic Fund
Also during the conspiracy, Zajac sought to curry favor with Beasley and former mayor Kilpatrick by raising more than $70,000 for the Kilpatrick Civic Fund.
Zajac directed and forced people having business before the pension funds to spend thousands of dollars to entertain trustees of both pension funds. Zajac forced an investment manager to pay more than $10,000 for limousines for trustees during a trip to New York City.
Soon after giving Beasley, Stewart, and a third trustee thousands of dollars in cash at their "birthday parties," the trustees voted to give Zajac a substantial raise as General Counsel of the two pension funds. As a result of the raise, Zajac was receiving over $400,000 in compensation per year from the pension funds.

Quote:Gotta disagree here, I don't know what "stereotypical karate" would consist of, but his standup stuff definitely looks like Karate to me. I realize it's hard to say what's what in terms of an MMA fighter's influences but I will say the way he moves has a distinct Shotokan influence to my mind.
Quote:Then you would not be looking at the information available from the majority of successful MMA fighters.As far as I know, only 1 person in the UFC uses anything that appears similar to karate to any great effect 1 person in the history of the UFC. Correct me if I am wrong.
Quote:Couldn't it be assumed that he says these things to bring credit or even honor to his father and their way of training? Wouldn't it be better to credit that than to say it's his mma training? I think so and that's probably the case.
Quote:I see clear evidence of karate in Machida's techniques. He uses mae geri effectively - not just as a "push kick".There is a lot of karate in Machida's technique. I'd go so far as to say it was his "mother tongue"...I agree with your comments Brian. In terms of the holy grail of "applied bunkai" you referred to in the embu thread, this man has it.
Quote:Quote:So then why practice kata at all if not to improve fighting ability? I've been asking THAT question for years. Two things; 1) We don't know if he practices kata. 2) If he does, imagine how good he'd have been if he hadn't. -John

Not a successful day at all for the entire Cubs organization, as all three levels lost last night. Full Recaps after the jump.
Nelson Perez was really the only offensive threat for Daytona going 2-for-4 with a home run and an RBI. Eduardo Figueroa took the loss for the D-Cubs, but wasn't given any help from his defense as they committed two errors behind him which led to three unearned runs.
It was nice to finally see the Smokies score some runs, unfortunately they gave up way too many. Ty Wright, Michael Brenly, Justin Bour, and Nate Sampson all had multiple hit games. Sampson had the big day at the plate going 4-for-4 with two doubles, a home run, a walk, and three RBI's. The pitching took it on the chin, surrendering 9 runs on 10 hits. Dae-Eun Rhee put the Smokies in a whole early, giving up five runs in the first two innings, he settled down and managed to escape with a no decision.
Anthony Rizzo will not slow down, he hit two more home runs last night, bringing his season total to 7, and his RBI total to 16 with 3 more last night. Unfortunately Rizzo was the only offense that the I-Cubs could muster against the Isotopes. Travis Wood started and took the loss as he couldn't hang on to an early lead, he surrendered the deciding run in the 7th inning.
Thanks for reading,
– George

I know I'm about a year behind, but it just came to my attention that Barney Rosset, founder of the literary magazine The Evergreen Review recently passed away.
How does this relate to posters, you ask? Well, the Evergreen Review was responsible for commissioning some of the most iconic images of the 1960s & 1970s.

Spare a thought or two of gratitude for the seven volunteers who serve on Woodside's Architectural and Site Review Board, which has the complicated task of reviewing residents' site development plans and making recommendations to the planning director.
Their mission: to preserve Woodside's "rural" character and natural beauty while still allowing residents, some of whom have a lot of money, the freedom to design homes to match their wealth and ambitions.
The conflicts are built in. Some examples:
■ Residents place a high value on "rural" living in homes that are subordinate to the features of the landscape, but the town is minutes away from global high-tech centers of business. The ASRB regularly sees plans that push the envelope of town regulations to absolute limits.
■ While Woodside lots are often large and expensive, many are ill-suited for much property development, given problems that include sloping topography, complicated soil, creek beds, venerable trees and seismic faults, all of which limit where construction can take place. The ASRB is often the messenger bearing the news that the applicant is trying to do too much in too small a space and in ways that challenge rural character.
■ Given the limits above ground, Woodside has been lenient below ground, and applicants have responded with increasingly sophisticated and massive basements, including tunnels connecting underground rooms. Site grading and site disruption have become issues.
The town overhauled its general plan and residential design guidelines in 2012, but there remain misalignments between these documents and the municipal code, which can create loopholes. The Town Council met with the ASRB on April 29 to discuss these matters. The joint meeting was a first step in a series of initiatives to correct these misalignments, with a studious eye toward avoiding unintended consequences.
One major change from 2012, requiring an applicant to submit a conceptual design to the ASRB, appears to be working.
Having the ASRB comment early is meant to prevent formal plans from being blindsided by the town's rules and expectations. Over the last 24 months, said Planning Director Jackie Young, one conceptual design review has been enough for 83 percent of the applications. In 12 percent of the cases, two reviews have been necessary, and 3 percent have come back a third time.
Three is not three
The council asked ASRB members to comment on their milieu.
The client doesn't understand why they can't build what they want, said member Tom Livermore. "We don't give any opinions except that the house is too big (or) that the intensity of use is too great. We don't say what that means," he said. It's hard for the ASRB and for the architect, he said.
Maximum floor area is a touchy issue. A three-acre lot is allowed 15,000 square feet of paved area, and maximum floor areas of 6,000 square feet for a main residence and 1,500 for an accessory structure. But topographical limits may be severe.
"Three acres is not three acres in Woodside," said member Nick Triantos.
The ASRB will make suggestions, on massing for example, and applicants won't take them seriously, Chair Thalia Lubin said. Things work well if the applicant and the architect understand the design guidelines, but there's a constant struggle between what's allowed and what people want to build, she said.
'This is what I want'
One exchange shed some light on life in the ASRB trenches.
Councilman Peter Mason suggested that a split vote by the ASRB on a proposed project should inform the applicant that there's a problem.
"Applicants don't look at it that way," Councilman and builder Dave Tanner responded. "They don't get it and their architects don't get it."
"If (the vote) isn't 7-0, then there is some issue," Mr. Mason replied.
For the applicants, it's more black and white, ASRB member Maggie Mah said. "They say 'This is what I get to have (in acreage and maximums) and this is what I want.' How do we balance those maximums and what do we say to them? They still keep coming back." The biggest issues are size and openness of land impacted by a high number of accessory structures, she said. "That alters the town significantly. It really changes the face of the town."
The ASRB should stick to criticizing applicants' designs and offering suggestions, Mr. Tanner said.
The ASRB does offer criticism and suggestions, but the applicants don't take the suggestions, Ms. Lubin said. "(They say they) explored the options and decided to go with their original design."

Last week MTV2 premiered a new Wale featuring Big Sean video for "Slight Work." What many didn't realize it that it was also the directoral debut of Chris Brown. The video is brightly hued, filled with graffiti and dancing. A behind the scenes video shows Brown with Godfrey Tabaraz, a well-known music video director who helmed Brown's on "N***** In Paris" freestyle clip. Brown says, "Basically the concept is we just want to be young and fresh, you know."
MTV News talked to Wale back in December when shooting began. He told them, "Me reaching out to Chris is bigger than me reaching out to a homeboy, it's me reaching out to an aspiring director. I think a lot of people put a lot of us into one box and don't know we have other passions. I wasn't surprised, a guy that creative and that talented, I'm sure he has other things that he wants to do."
Big Sean previously collaborated with Brown, who guested on his hit track "My Last."
Wale has a history of interesting collaborations, including getting Lady Gaga as a guest on his song, "Chillin."

I still wanna see STAT experiment in the post a little bit this game
Young women wanna have - Older women wanna GIVE.. King Starbury got the picture
Probably nobody noticed it but Carmelo put some less effort for maybe a minute and Woody benched him immidiately. I'm not hating, just saying it's great how Woodson lets our guys know if something's wrong. I expect Carmelo to come out pumped and hit some big shots (3-9 is way below his level).
I honestly believe TD is hurt. I think he's keeping the truth about that shoulder to himself...which is bad because he may not be getting proper treatment on it. I still think he can play, the man was instant offense last year. It's a damn shame if you ask me.

counties across Maryland for a wide variety of uses including public works
projects. On Monday, the Mayor and Council approved an application for $800,000
in the next funding cycle, which, if approved, will be used to help fund the
expansion of the town's wastewater capacity including the construction of a new
storage lagoon and spray irrigation site.

eligible for in any one year is $800,000, and town officials will be seeking
the entire amount again this year. Last year, Berlin was successful in
obtaining $800,000 in CDBG funds, which were used to repair and expand the existing
spray effluent storage lagoon along with several street repair projects, many
of which are now nearing completion.
Earlier this year,
Berlin obtained permission to expand its spray irrigation system in order to
increase its sewer capacity. Obtaining the CDBG grant in the amount of $800,000
in the current funding cycle would help continue progress on that effort. The
total cost of the sewer expansion project, including land acquisition and
construction of the new effluent force main, storage lagoon and spray
irrigation equipment, along with all of the associated engineering, legal and
administrative fees is expected to come in at around $9.5 million.
The wastewater expansion
project will be funded from a variety of federal, state and local sources with
the potential CDBG grant an important element in the equation. Town
Administrator Tony Carson recalled Berlin was in a similar situation this time
last year when the CDBG cycle came around and was optimistic for a similar
outcome this time around.
"We hope we are as
successful this year as we were last year," he said. "We hope to secure the
CDBG grant and combine it with the various funding sources and come back to you
with a funding plan for the entire project."
Berlin Mayor Gee
Williams also noted the similarities in the town's most recent application for
the federal funds.
"Basically, we're going
after the same funding sources as last time, only in different amounts," he
said. "It's like déjà vu all over again."
The state will review
all applications submitted and make a determination on the allocation of the
CDBG funds based on a project's worthiness or likelihood of being fully funded
and completed. Williams said the preliminary work done thus far on the
wastewater expansion project indicates the state is comfortable with allocating
the funds.
"Nothing is guaranteed,
but if this was considered a pie in the sky project, we would have had some
indication of that already," he said.
Carson agreed the town's
application for CDBG funding appears air tight, but warned acquiring the needed
funding could be difficult with so many applications submitted and a limited
amount of funding available.
"All indications are
positive, but we're not going to take anything for granted," he said.
Because of the
competitiveness of the process, Williams warned town staffers to make sure the
town's application is solid and, perhaps more importantly, all deadlines are
To date, Berlin has
received $1.3 million in federal CDBG funds including over $700,000 received
last year for the spray effluent lagoon project. Of that figure, $219,000, or
37 percent, was used to extend water and sewer lines to the new lagoon site.

Rex Reed Forgets Melissa McCarthy's Name + Blames Backlash on 'Identity Thief' Producers
Rex Reed is coming out swinging against the backlash he faced after making unnecessary, pointless remarks about Melissa McCarthy's weight in his scathing review of 'Identity Thief.'
And he's missing the point. Surprise!
Speaking about the hate he received after calling McCarthy a "hippo" among other things, Reed told FilmDrunk, "This is an organized group of people, believe me. And it's all being fanned because of Universal's desire to sell tickets to a bad movie."
For the record, when we called him out on his douchebaggery, Universal had nothing to do with it.
He added that he's lost pals to obesity-related complications, so it's a sensitive subject for him, then quipped, "I object to using health issues like obesity as comedy talking points. That's what this girl does! This Melissa Manchester…"
Dude, seriously? Maybe he talked all that smack about McCarthy because he's a little too lazy to look up her name or do any research on the very star he's criticizing so harshly.
Not that McCarthy cares. She's too busy counting her cash — and possibly writing Reed a thank you note for it.

A hangover (pronounced //ˈhæŋəʊvə //) describes the sum of unpleasant physiological effects following heavy consumption of alcoholic beverages. The most commonly reported characteristics of a hangover include headache, nausea, sensitivity to light and noise, lethargy, dysphoria, diarrhea and thirst, typically after the intoxicating effect of the alcohol begins to wear off. While a hangover can be experienced at any time, generally speaking a hangover is experienced the morning after a night of heavy drinking. In addition to the physical symptoms, a hangover may also induce psychological symptoms including heightened feelings of depression and anxiety.
Hypoglycemia, dehydration, acetaldehyde intoxication, and glutamine rebound are all theorized causes of hangover symptoms. Hangover symptoms may persist for several days after alcohol was last consumed. Approximately 25-30% of drinkers may be resistant to hangover symptoms. Some aspects of a hangover are viewed as symptoms of acute ethanol withdrawal, similar to the longer-duration effects of withdrawal from alcoholism, as determined by studying the increases in brain reward thresholds in rats (the amount of current required to receive from two electrodes implanted in the lateral hypothalamus) following ethanol injection. Dehydration is caused by alcohol's ability to inhibit the effect of anti-diuretic hormone on kidney tubules, which leads to a hyperosmolar state, which in turn causes shrinking of (by loss of water) the brain cells which causes hangover.[citation needed]

Baez was My Closer Option
The more and more I heard that the Tampa Bay Rays were seeking a possible closer candidate for the 2010 season, the more the name of former Rays closer,and free agent Danys Baez pops into my mind as an option. Before the recent two-day whirlwind that landed the Rays former Braves reliever Rafael Soriano, I thought that Baez might be the Rays best option based on the high ceilings to salaries wanted by free agent and reliever out in the market place this winter.
Baez was seeking a roster spot with a team on the Atlantic coast to be closer to his family, who reside in Miami, Florida. And that fact totally played in the Rays court if the team tried to negotiate a contract. But the two sides never met and the phone lines remained silent between them. The kicker is that I know first hand that Baez would love to return to the Rays because of the direct the team is headed in the next few years. He saw the mass improvement and was excited to possibly be a part of the resurgence of the Rays.
Even though it has been a few years since he was last with the Rays (2004-2005) the team has now formed a firm foundation and have established themselves in the American League East division. And with Baez's being a part of that first thrust towards respectability, he also holds a positive historic mark on the Rays past. A reunion of the two seems more and more possible before todays news.
Baez held the second spot on the Rays All Time Saves leader board with 71 career saves. And during his first season(2004) with the Rays, he became only the second Rays reliever ever to post at least 30 saves in a regular season for the team. During his second season, he became only the second Rays pitcher to post 40 saves in a season. With this, you start to see his level of constant rising to the moment by the Rays former closer.
Sportsline.com Photo
I could see Baez maybe signing with the team for about $5 million plus incentives, but still be under that "$7 million mark" that Rays team owner Stuart Sternberg is warning will not be in the Rays picture this season. But there are plenty of other reasons why the Rays could have considered Baez before bringing in,or trading around for another arm this off season. All the Rays front office really had to do was open their individual minds and the Rays record books to see the value of including Baez on this team.
During 2004, Baez's 30 saves ranked sixth best in the AL, and he had a save opportunity in 43 percent of the Rays 70 wins that season. Baez might have only been 30-33 in total save opportunities, but in a wild twist, he ended up as the games winning pitcher during all three blown saves. Baez also converted 18 straight saves from June 16th, to September 24th, to provide a positive benchmark towards the type of consistency that Baez could of produced for the Rays in 2010.
Another interesting sidebar about Baez was he converted 12 out of 12 saves opportunities away from Tropicana Field and he saved 25 out of 26 opportunities against American League foes during the 2004 season. Opponents batted for a .191 average against him with men on base, and a lowly .091 batting average when the bases were loaded in 2004. Baez did the job of closing down the opposition during his first season with the Rays.
And that high level of consistency kept going in 2005 when he improved his save total for the third time in his professional career. Baez saved a career high 41 saves during 2005, and was rewarded during the season as a Rays representative at the 2005 All Star game. Baez also became the first Major League Baseball pitcher to save over 40 games on a sub .500 team in MLB history. Baez ended up saving 62.1 percent of the total Rays wins (67) for the season. And Baez went an impressive 7 for 7 against the New York Yankees in save opportunities, tying the Yankees team record of save against them in one season set by former White Sox Bobby Thigpen in 1990.
And one of the reason I really felt like he could be the possible answer for the Rays was most of his career has been set in the American League, and he has been a closer in the competitive A L East and knows the stress and pressures of the division. But all of this logic and statistics might be thrown away now with the addition of Soriano top the Rays staff. The Rays have made their decision on their possible 2010 closer and the Baez idea will be again thrown on the back burner.
I am a bit upset that the team would not even consider Baez, but maybe they are seeking another direction of not including any of the past, and thrusting towards the future. I guess I will just have to catch Baez sometime during 2010 somewhere along the sidelines during Batting Practice and just personally let him know he was the guy I wanted to see close in 2010. I will keep an open mind with Soriano and hope that he can be that guy at the back end of the game to provide some stability and some exciting Rays moments for 2010.
As I always say, I guess we shall see………….
11 Comments
Baseball teams work in mysterious ways. And since Baez has been cool in the clutch and teams are willing to sign closers like Brandon Lyon, someone will sign him. I'm sorry for you that it isn't the Rays, though.
I know he will find a good spot to place his glove and cap in 2010.
It was just a wish I wanted for the team, but they did find a good replacement that I will enjoy with time.
I am only a fan, not a front office member or a scout, so my wants are way down on the chart next to "Who will cut the lawn"(with a weedwhacker).
Rays Renegade
Good luck with Soriano. Would've been better off with Baez. Ever see Soriano's face in a tight situation? Looks like he's crapping himself. Dude is not made of nails and in my opinion, a closer HAS TO BE.
Sorry Baez didn't land the closer spot, because it would have been nice symmetry for a former Rays player to be able to contribute to the "new Rays." But Soriano is an exciting pickup and who knows what's next on the hot stove!
Jane, I agree, Soriano will let J P Howell get back to what he does best………….smack batter with that flithy curve and change-up.
Sometimes you just want thing to make sense and follow your patterns, but baseball only follows the patterns of rounding the bases.
Rays Renegade
That is the same reason I was so high on the Rays taking chance on Jason Isringhausen in 2009.
Iy takes a special kind of player to adjust and master the art of the close.
An old Rays friend of mine, Seth McClung tried to do it and I think the mental part of the game was good, but he thought about the process too much and it got to him.
Baseball is about give and take sometimes, but a closer has to be the one to clasp his hands together and keep it all together………even at the worst moments.
Rays Renegade
It seems like the Rays got a good deal for Soriano. They turned Iwamura into Soriano by putting Chavez in between.
I was actually looking forward to see how Chavez threw the ball, but guess I will have to pop on a Braves game to see it now.
Soriano let's the Rays back-end of the Bullpen relax a bit knowing there is a defined role at the end.
I still see Grant Balfour, J P Howell and Dan Wheeler getting the 7th and 8th inning work.
Just like some things, maybe after watching Soriano pitch…….I will be a believer too.
Rays Renegade
I know the Rays already have more than confidence in Dan Wheeler and his $ 3.5 million dollar salary to set-up Soriano, or I would puch for Baez to come here as a set-up guy.
He might just fit in great with Phillie. You meet the criteria he set as a East coast team, and you have a winning tradition.
Could be a win-win for both player and team.
Nice suggestion!
Rays Renegade
Baez would have been great for the Rays, and since this is the time where anything can happen, who knows maybe Baez would settle to be a set up guy till Soriano falters and collapses, which I think he looks like he may with some of that Lidgesque style. Maybe I should rethink my thoughts on additions for the Phillies and add Baez to that list…
Outside the Phillies Looking In

Notice Number: NOT-NS-13-005
Key Dates
Release Date: December 20, 2012
Estimated Publication Date of Announcement: May 1, 2013
First Estimated Application Due Date: September 16, 2013
Earliest Estimated Award Date: July 1, 2014
Earliest Estimated Start Date: July 1, 2014
Issued by
National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), intends to re-issue a Program Announcement with Special Review Considerations (PAR) to solicit applications for "Countermeasures Against Chemical Threats (CounterACT) Research Centers of Excellence (U54)". The goal of this initiative is to provide support for translational research to develop therapeutics for reducing mortality and morbidity caused by acute exposures to chemical threat agents. Chemical threats are toxic chemicals that could be used in a terrorist attack or accidentally released from industrial production, storage or shipping. The scope of the research supported within this milestone-driven translational program includes target and candidate identification and characterization, through candidate optimization and demonstration of in vivo efficacy, through Investigational New Drug (IND) submission. See www.ninds.nih.gov/counteract for a description of the CounterACT program.
This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and competitive research programs.
The FOA is expected to be published in Spring 2013 with an expected receipt date in September 2013.
This FOA will utilize the U54 activity code. Details of the planned FOA are provided below.
This Notice encourages collaborative multidisciplinary investigations, combining expertise in toxicology and drug discovery and development, to discover and develop new or improved therapeutics for treating victims of chemical exposures.
The CounterACT research program will utilize Specialized Center Cooperative Agreements (U54) to support Research Centers of Excellence for up to 5 years of translational research. Each Research Center must establish milestones that include discrete and quantitative goals that create go or no-go decision points in the project. Each Center will include several individual research projects and scientific and administrative cores to create an interdisciplinary and synergistic multifaceted research approach, centered on a central common goal. Chemical threats to be covered include chemical warfare agents (e.g. sarin, VX), Toxic Industrial Chemicals (e.g. phosgene, sulfur dioxide) and others. Please contact the NIH Program Director below to discuss chemical threats to be covered. The NIH intends to commit approximately $3-4 million per year in Fiscal Years 2014, 2015, and 2016 to fund new and/or competing renewal U54 awards. Since the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend on the number, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. It is anticipated that several other NIH Institutes, including the National Eye Institute (NEI), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), and the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), may also participate in this funding opportunity announcement.

Highland Oaks Golf Course - Magnolia/Highlands Course904 Royal Pkwy
Dothan, AL 36305
Phone: (334)712-2820Fax: (334)712-2757
This facility is one of eight that make up the Robert Trent Jones Trail through Alabama. It has three nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations. In addition, the club has a nine hole par 3 course. All of the regulation courses play basically the same. They are typical Robert Trent Jones' designs that feature many large sand bunkers and large undulating greens. These two factors, plus the woods, make solid course management a must. These courses were built on gently rolling terrain, but what is unique about the Highland Oaks Course is its three totally different topographies: wide-open fairways, lots of water coming into play and dense areas of moss-covered hardwood trees. The number one handicap hole on the Highlands Course is #3, a 457-yard, par 4. It is a very intimidating hole that requires a tee shot over water and you need to save enough distance to make an approach shot over more water to a large, domed, and undulating green. The Marshwood Course has many uphill and downhill shots over natural shrubs. Hole #6, a 701-yard, par 5, requires a blind tee shot. Even from the men's tee, the hole plays 616 yards. The secret to this hole is carrying the fairway bunkers and getting some downhill roll in order to place your second shot. Ask the starter for a tip sheet to give you some idea on how to play each hole on the regulation courses. The Magnolia/Highland Course was rated by "Golf Digest" as the 6th "Best Public Course" for 1996, and 6th among the "Top 75 Affordable Golf Courses" for 1996. In addition, "Golf Digest" rated the Marshwood/Magnolia Course 31st best among the "Top 75 Affordable Courses" in their 1996 list of "America's Best Golf Courses Everyone Can Play." A senior discount is offered for all courses Monday through Thursday before 9 AM. You can walk the courses, but pull carts are not allowed. While tee times are taken up to forty-five days in advance, there is a small charge per person if you book more than seven days in advance. Fridays are subject to the weekend green fees. Special "trail passes" are sold that reduce the cost of green fees. If you have a AAA card, each of the clubs will provide a fifteen percent discount off green fees and merchandise in the pro shop. A special for eighteen hole play is offered after 3 PM. For more information or tee time reservations call (800) 949-4444.

Skip to comments.Report: Ray Lewis Used Banned Substance To Recover From Torn Triceps
Posted on 01/29/2013 12:58:58 PM PST by Perdogg
Ray Lewis final season and Baltimores run through the AFC to the Super Bowl has been described as destiny or a fateful miracle, but it appears as though Lewis recovery from a torn triceps was aided by the use of a banned substance.
Sports Illustrated reported that among Lewis many treatments for his torn triceps, suffered Oct. 14, was a deer-antler spray, which is banned by the NFL. Philly.com published quotes from the SI article from phone conversations between Lewis and Mitch Ross, the owner of Sports with Alternatives to Steroids (S.W.A.T.S.).
(Excerpt) Read more at boston.cbslocal.com ...
Well, it's not like anyone got murdered or anything.
Ray Lewis : Clean as Lance Armstrong, as innocent as OJ.
Now if he was a white guy who rode bicycles this would be a serious issue.
Deer antler spray? What does it do? Get you out of a rut?..............
LOL, deer-antler spray? Was he seeing a witch doctor?
A local Korean grocery store sells candy with deer antler velvet in it. It tastes worse than it sounds.
This sounds more like the media trying to make news.
Good thing he hadn't advanced to using moose antlers or rhinoceros horn.
Thus folks wanting to repair their bodies fast...look to these therapies.
...and it's very hard, as well.........hmmmmmm.........I wonder........
Consider that Ray Lewis was drafted in 1996, he is playing at a Pro Bowl level, and there is not one other player still playing from the '96 draft. And he plays probably the most physically demanding position, besides running back, in the game. He's been on something his whole cry-baby career.
You actually tried it?
You're not that first guy that once said "lets lick this toad and see if we can get high" are you?
It's on sale right now at both Cabela's and Gander Mtn.......
You are probably right.

Google Seeks to Ban Almost Apple's Entire U.S. Product Line
Jason Mick

Sender E-mail
New ITC complaint leverages 8 of Motorola's patents
Apple, Inc. (
) has made it pretty clear that it wants to try to ban all of the top Android phonemakers off the market. Google Inc. (
) has vowed to fight back, using the treasure trove of patents from its recent acquisition Motorola Mobility to
help protect its partners
. Google was seeking a ban on Apple's iPhone, iPad, and Mac computers to counter a potential Android ban.
Thus far that protection scheme didn't work out so well, as Google-owned Motorola Mobility and Apple had their suits/counter-suits
from the
U.S. District Court, Northern District of Illinois
(Chicago). In fact, so far federal courts have proven relatively retiscent to ban products from either side.
So Motorola Mobility's latest legal salvo -- a
50 page complaint
[PDF] with
187 exhibits
, pertaining to eight patents -- instead hopes to sway the
U.S. International Trade Commission
to ban imports of Apple's products, an approach that Apple
successfully used to ban shipments
of top Android phonemaker HTC Corp. (
) earlier in the year.
The new suit targets:
iPod Touch
iPhone 3GS
iPhone 4
iPhone 4S
"the new Apple iPad (aka the iPad3)
Mac Pro
Mac Mini
MacBook Pro
MacBook Air
It demands satisfaction in the form of a resolution within 15 months and a court-order "excluding entry into the United States of wireless communications devices, portable music and data processing devices, computers, and components thereof that infringe."
As Apple manufacturers all its products outside the U.S., this means, basically, a complete ban of all Apple's products.
Google is seeking to ban virtually all Apple's devices [Image Source: Apple]
The lawsuit leverages eight patents:
No. 5,883,580
, "Geographic-Temporal Significant Messaging"
No. 5,922,047
"Apparatus, Method and System for Multimedia Control and Communication"
No. 6,425,002
"Apparatus and Method for Handling Dispatching Messages for Various Applications of a Communication Device"
No. 6,493,673
"Markup Language for Interactive Services And Methods Thereof"
No. 6,983,370
"System For Providing Continuity Between Messaging Clients And Method Therefor"
No. 7,007,064
"Method And Apparatus For Obtaining And Managing Wirelessly Communicated Content"
No. 7,383,983
"System And Method For Managing Content Between Devices In Various Domains"
A couple of quick thoughts on the patents:
They appear not to be standards patents -- e.g. Motorola Mobility's standard 3G/4G fodder. This means that they are likely not subject to "fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory" (FRAND) licensing requirements, something that
has plagued
Google's past attempts to litigate against Apple. In other words, Apple and Google are now fighting on
a level playing field
The patents -- much like Apples -- are often
rather ambiguous/nebulous
in terms of describing there invention. Given the broad descriptions (e.g. the one patent appears to be describing all forms of geo-tagged communication), it may be hard for Apple to escape from being found in infringement, must as Android has struggled to escape Apple's vague and overly broad patents.
WWIII is upon us in the patent world -- the dying Apple co-founder Steven P. Jobs
wish for "thermonuclear" legal war
has come to fruition.
Steve Jobs dying wish of "thermonuclear war" with Android has been fully realized.
It's possible that only a handful of products will be banned, but as Apple and Google step up their legal barrages, it's also quite possible that most Android and Apple devices could eventually become subject to a ban -- an outcome that one would expect -- or at least hope -- would lead to a broad cross-licensing pact à la Apple and Microsoft Corp.'s (
) "special arrangement".
One thing's for sure, though. Google isn't about to roll over and die or let the same happen to its partners. It is determined to fight Apple's efforts to the bitter end.
Groklaw [1]
"And I don't know why [Apple is] acting like it's superior. I don't even get it. What are they trying to say?" -- Bill Gates on the Mac ads
