Ann Althouse's apologia for the so obviously politically crafted shifts in position on abortion by Rudolph W. Giuliani and Mitt Romney is undeserved....I certainly concede these political realities. I simply defend their statements in spite of that. Of course, politicians are political. Deal with it! But abortion is a difficult issue and those who craft complex positions deserve some sympathy. Otherwise, you're left with those who stay at the crisp extremes.
Mr. Giuliani and Mr. Romney have a similar problem, one not to their credit. Running as Republicans in liberal Northeastern areas, both sought to reassure pro-choice voters that they had nothing to fear from their election.
Now, both seek to appease pro-life Republicans elsewhere in the country by assuring them that their views are truly conservative, that they will appoint "strict constructionist" (read anti-Roe v. Wade) judges and the like.
Neither candidate deserves what Ms. Althouse refers to as "decent sympathy" for their expression of complex views, since there is nothing complex about waffling.
Who knows, after all, what views either of these politicians ever actually had or has now? All we do know is how far both are prepared to go to be elected.
Basically, I like the sort of liberal(ish) Republican that can succeed in a blue state, and the point of the column is to show that their convoluted statements are not as ridiculous as they appear on first read.
The second letter is from Nancy N. Northup, president of the Center for Reproductive Rights, and she mainly (and unsurprisingly) stakes out the position in favor of abortion rights (which, remember, I support). But let me focus on the last part:
Unless a woman can make her own decisions about her life, she isn't in control of her future. Allowing states to take away women's fundamental human rights is not a "part of our freedom," as Ann Althouse writes, but rather the tyranny she fears.This refers to my discussion of Giuliani's garbled sounding comment about "how it's 'part of our freedom' for the legislatures in the various states to make their own decisions about law." I say:
If Roe were overruled, [state] legislatures would decide how to regulate abortion. And decentralized legislation really is fairly called "part of our freedom" because the Constitution's framers saw the balance of power between the national government and the states as a safeguard against tyranny.All I'm doing there is explaining the sense of what Giuliani said. It isn't my preference to return the question of abortion to the states, and I don't think it's Giuliani's. But if Roe were overturned, the question would go back to the states, and there is a question what that would be like. What would happen?
In thinking about this eventuality, it is helpful to remember that the federalism has long been considered a structural safeguard that has something to do with individual liberty. As I have written here before, there is plenty of reason to be suspicious of how well that kind of safeguard could work, but my point remains: It was not incoherent or bizarre for Giuliani to connect federalism and freedom.
The third letter comes from a reader who is pro-life, Richard H. Escobales Jr. He says he "appreciated" my column, but: "I find that the muddled positions of Rudolph W. Giuliani and Mitt Romney on this critically important issue do not inspire confidence." So, he kind of didn't appreciate my column.
And there was a letter yesterday, by David W. Massey, about my Feb. 20 column -- "'A Skullful of Mush'" -- which recommended a revival of Socratic teaching in law school:
There is an underlying premise in Ann Althouse's plea for traditional law school instruction (" 'A Skull Full of Mush,' " column, Feb. 20), and that is that law school graduates, drilled in the case method, will leave knowing "how to think like lawyers."There's a paradox here. Did he learn from the method or not? He admits he did, even as he admires another method. Yet I'm not so sure he learned how to read all that well, because he's seeing something in my column that was not there: an endorsement of the use of intimidation, disrespect, and dictatorial indoctrination.
My law school experience long ago taught me to challenge pious premises.
If law school teaches students properly, it can only begin to prepare them to confront the unexpected in advising clients, working with other lawyers and arriving at acceptable results.
Last year, while celebrating a college reunion, I wandered back to the law school, and in the same classroom where the Charles W. Kingsfield Jr. of my acquaintance practiced his particular brand of intimidation, I observed a different approach: where the professor respectfully listened to volunteers and didn't dictate to his class how they should think, because he knew that there wasn't one way for lawyers to do so.
I emphasized that I didn't know any law professors who were the Kingsfield type, so that it was rather nonsensical for us to worry about acting like that fictional character, who the "Paper Chase" author, John Jay Osborn Jr. admitted was an exaggeration. I said that we lawprofs ought to have some respect for our own tradition and concluded:
The students who come into our law schools are adults who have decided that they are ready to spend a tremendous amount of time and money preparing to enter a profession. We show the greatest respect for their individual autonomy if we deny ourselves the comfort of trying to make them happy and teach them what they came to learn: how to think like lawyers.Note that I didn't say we should try to make them unhappy, only that we default in our central responsibility if we structure class around the idea of trying to make them happy.
Actually, I think they are more likely to end up happy if the class teaches them what they need to know. What I was rejecting was a class that is too much about students "telling their stories." I am willing to bet that most students don't want to spend too much of their time listening to the stories other law students have to tell.
As for taking volunteers instead of calling on people, I have to confess that I've usually done that in my 20+ years of teaching. But I think it is self-indulgent -- it's much easier! -- and it invariably leaves too few students doing too much of the talking. When you call on students, you find that they really are all quite capable of speaking and responding well to questions, and it is important to demonstrate this and to provide them all with this experience.

A recent study by McAfee found that four out of five website visits start with a search engine query. So if your website doesn't have good search engine rankings then you're missing out on 80% of the traffic you could be getting. That's an incredibly large amount of traffic to be missing out on, but that doesn't need to be the case...
Any search engine optimization expert will tell you that building links to your website is the most important and most effective way of getting better search engine rankings. You can optimize your on-site content all you want, but unless you build links to your website then it's doomed to the depths of the result pages. You must build links to your website to stand any chance of getting good search engine rankings. Submitting to directories is the fastest and single-most effective means of improving your search engine rankings. It's worked for us, and it's worked for thousands of our users who have seen their visitor numbers and profits from their website explode, using nothing more than SubmitEaze - just read the testimonials further down the page for proof of its effectiveness.
SubmitEaze is a powerful website directory submission tool that will save you hours of time and effort submitting your website to directories. Using SubmitEaze will result in more traffic, more sales, and more importantly: more money in your pocket! Read on to find out how...
|Here's what you get with SubmitEaze...
|Submit to website directories.
|Automatic CAPTCHA completion.
|Automatic Email confirmation processing.
|Fully automatic submission (with Auto-CAPTCHA).
|One-time fee (NO extra charges for each website you submit!).
|Free software updates for life (no additional charges).
|Free directory listings updates for life (no additional charges).
|Directory list updates every 7 days or less.
|Create and submit to your own custom directory lists (even with turbo mode).
|Free customer support.
Remember, there are no recurring fees with SubmitEaze.
A website directory categorizes websites so that a person can manually find information they are looking for, rather like a phone book or the yellow pages. Website directories provide an alternative to search engines because rather than just the big sites being listed at the top, it is the user who chooses which site to visit by reading a description of the different sites to see which matches their requirements best. Obviously the more directories you can submit your website to, the more traffic your website will receive.
Submitting to web directories will therefore have two massive benefits for your website: the first is that your website will get direct, targeted traffic from the directories themselves, secondly your website will obtain a good quality, one-way link from every directory you submit to. This will drastically improve your search engine rankings and Google PageRank, often moving your website many pages in the search engine results.
We initially created our software because we needed a way of submitting our own websites to directories quickly and easily. It worked so well for us that we decided to release it as a tool for other webmasters. SubmitEaze was the result, and it is now used daily by over 33,000 webmasters throughout the world.
So how did our websites fair after using SubmitEaze? Well, we used SubmitEaze on three of our other websites and we now make on average over $1,300 in just one day from just one of these sites. Want to know the secret to our success? Our three websites were setup in 2004 selling guides to search engine optimization, successful website design, and e-commerce. Every day since then we've used SubmitEaze to submit each of our websites to 20 website directories - and that's it! From just these three websites we have made, and continue to make approximately $1million each year.
We've not done anything extraordinary; we aren't geniuses or brilliant salesmen, we just created good guides that people find useful, and worked on promoting the website - if we can do it, so can you!
The two most time-consuming aspects of submitting your website to directories is firstly collating a list of quality directories to submit to, and then actually typing your website details for every directory you submit to. If you've ever tried to submit your website to a lot of directories you'll understand just how time consuming this can be, especially if you operate more than one website!
SubmitEaze solves all of these problems by providing you with a massive list of quality directories and also listing the Google PageRank, Alexa Traffic Rank, and Incoming Backlink count for every directory so you can prioritize which directories to submit to. You can then work through the list, and using the built-in 'Auto-Fill' function it is possible to enter your submission details with the click of a button, without the need to re-type your details for every directory you submit to - which makes the submission process incredibly quick.
Without any exaggeration, by using SubmitEaze you can do in an hour what used to take days. SubmitEaze also allows you to create an unlimited number of projects, so you can keep an independent list of submissions for every website you submit.
Want proof that SubmitEaze can really benefit you? Just read what some of our users have said about our software...
"I depend on SubmitEaze. This program is so user friendly and has many useful features. It is easy to use, just set up a few lines of info about your site and you're ready to go.
In the evening, I submit to directories and use SubmitEaze's easy turbo submitter feature - a no brainer (I don't like thinking to much at the end of the day!)
I contemplated over a year on whether to purchase this software. Don't waste time like I did; get this program now. Directory submissions are an important step in promoting a website - you WILL get traffic. SubmitEaze is the absolute best software to use for directory submissions."
J.D. Schambre
"I bought SubmitEaze a couple of months ago and without any exaggeration, it has turned my life around. My site was hardly getting any traffic and was only making one or two sales a week and I was thinking about shutting down. I bought SubmitEaze as a last-ditch attempt to revive my search engine rankings, and boy am I glad I did! Three weeks later I was on the first page of Google for my niche keywords, now I'm in the top 3 for my main keywords. Last month I had more than 650,000 unique visitors to my site, and made the same number of sales in one month as I used to make in six months."
Robert Webb
"Submiteaze is a fantastic tool to promote my site - I absolutely love it. Submiteaze makes my life so much easier and is the best promotion tool I have ever used. It is worth every penny. Actually it is worth way more than is being charged. Awesome software!"
Tina Browning
"Many thanks to you and your software for the difference is has made to our rankings and our visitor numbers. One of my websites, www.theboxwarehouse.co.uk, now ranks No. 1 on Google UK for 'boxes' and No. 2 for 'bubble wrap' - quite a big achievement! Before using your software two months ago we were on page two or three."
Paul Hopkins
The Box Warehouse, www.theboxwarehouse.co.uk
"I've been using it for my site now for about 8 months or so and had great success in boosting my rankings. It used to take some time to submit all the directories by hand, and I'm incredibly impressed with the new turbo submitter facility - it's awesome! You can literally breeze through the submission process but still retain complete control.
I thought your tool had reached the end of it's use for me, but I'm really excited to see all the changes and the huge list of new directories to submit to! I'm almost tempted to start a new website just for the sake of it!!"

"SubmitEaze is an absolute sanity saver! I'd spent hours submitting to directories and was tearing my hair out, I came across your software and I couldn't believe how easy and straight forward it made the whole process. I seriously can't thank you enough."
James Anderson
"I just wanted to thank you guys for the amount of work you put in your program. Your updating of your program is far superior than any other program and you don't even charge a recurring fee. I just used your auto registration and was blown away at the success rate. Most programs would have given up on updates and left dead sites. But again thanks again."
Adam Hefner

"I'm just beginning to get reacquainted with SubmitEaze after having been away for a while. I was really pleased and surprised to see the recent addition of the Turbo Submission mode. SubmitEaze has rocketed to the top of my list of favorite SEO tools.
Little did I realize when I bought this tool several years ago, that I would receive such outstanding support after such a long period of time. Nor, did I ever imagine that SubmitEaze would grow into such a powerful tool.
Keep up the good work and thanks again!"
Paul Ellis
Light Knight, www.thelightknight.com
"SubmitEaze has saved me hours of time and frustration. Just having the list of sites to submit to and their PR is invaluable. Being able to quickly fill in the forms and submit is a Internet marketer's dream. Also the ability to use multiple titles and descriptions helps maximize my SEO efforts!"
David B, Utah, USA

"I have designed a chat room website and thought and I knew enough SEO techniques to optimize for the key phrase 'no registration chat' which is searched over 201,000 times per month on Google alone. How wrong was I? I tried everything I knew to get from the bottom of the second page to the first and failed. By chance I opened an Email from www.submiteaze.com, they had sent me step by step instructions on how to properly optimize my website so I thought I'd start again following their instructions. With just a little bit of work it really paid off as I am now on the first page of Google with a PageRank of 6, and rank #3 on Yahoo.
I am very happy and I'm now working on my other websites following their techniques.
Thank you SubmitEaze!"
Stephen Turvey
"I have been using SubmitEaze for several years and have been very satisfied, not just with the product, but with the customer support too. Everything I have asked they have helped with a smile, and this made me realize I was dealing with good people.
My advice is if you want better search engine rankings and you want to save money and time, then you HAVE to try SubmitEaze.
If anyone reading this needs to speak with a live user, then go to my website, click on 'contact us' and I will be happy to talk to you..."
Alan Coval
"I've been in internet marketing for a few years and used probably 8 or ten website submitters, some automatic, some more manually inclined. In most cases the automatic submitters give you little feedback as to 'what happened' with the submission, or in fact whether the submission happened at all, and the 'manual' submitters are so boring, that you might as well submit from a list of directories and your web browser, and save your money.
I've been using SubmitEaze for around 18 months, and really come to appreciate it. The 'turbo submission' function makes website submission so EAZY. With SubmitEAZE's help, I can honestly say that I have noticed an incredible improvement in my search engine and Alexa rankings. The system is smooth to operate, stable, and is automatically updated. I feel SubmitEaze is the best submitter around."
Rahim Abdullah
"I had a few questions about the product and wrote to the company and to my pleasant surprise my questions were answered very quickly and most professionally. I have also been able to learn a ton from the video demos.
I have three website submitting programs installed on my computer and I am very happy to say I will be deleting two of them as they don't even come close to the quality of SubmitEaze.
My hat is off to the company and the support staff for all their help, as when I purchased my license I made an error with my order; the staff were very quick to Email me about it (before I even did!), and this was on a weekend - now that's what I call good customer service!!!
I proudly recommend SubmitEaze to anyone with a website that needs submitting on a regular basis, to use this product and buy with confidence that you are wisely spending your hard earned cash."
Mark Ramirez
Classic Chevrolet Forum, www.67-72chevyboard.com/
"I know most people get mangled in the marketing mess that many manufacturers put out there to sell their products, only to produce a half working tool; I know because I have been through all of them only to be disappointed. Folks, SubmitEaze is the REAL DEAL.
Everything that the website, videos, and sales page says, it DOES, and does it well. I could go on and on but honestly, if you have ever promoted your website using directory submissions this by far outranks any of what's out there. The time it saves is unbelievable.
Adam Hefner, NC
"We are an SEO company based out of Los Angeles, CA. After thoroughly reviewing all the submission software kits on the market, we settled with SubmitEaze because this is single-most valuable program worldwide. Great customer service, robust submission software, excellent choice of directories. You guys are Bombdiggity!"
George Gabrielyan
CEO, www.NextDigit.com
"SubmitEaze is a giant step forward with the new Turbo Submitter mode - we use it is to get one-way links. We are blown away by the time saved using the new Turbo feature. SubmitEaze has become indispensable."
Howard Farmer
SEO Advisor, www.seoadviser.info
"What a great program! It must have saved me hours in directory submissions, and the constant updates from you at SubmitEaze help to ensure the directory list is always up-to-date. Thanks and keep up the good work!"
John Conway
"Just wanted to thank you for delivering such an excellent product. SubmitEaze is worth every dime. Thanks for being behind what you sell, and for selling great software that works as promised, the first time and every time."
Jason Comely
Just Say ON, www.justsay.on.ca
"This is the best money I ever spent for a directory submit program and it is hands down THE BEST. It was a real time-saver to start with, now with the upgrade to faster turbo submission mode it is even more of a time saver. The ease and simplicity of setting it up is what I like most - you have taken the hard work out of that chore. Good Job!"
Jack Bowles
"I am a webmaster and an affiliate marketer and I make over $20,000 per month from my websites. What websites do I own? I wont you tell that, but I will tell you how I got them making so much; FREE Google traffic! Everyone already knows the benefits of getting one way links from directories, but what most people don't realize is that if you submit to directories by having to fill out the forms yourself you will NEVER come close to the quantity you need to actually see a discernible effect. Using SubmitEaze to submit to directories in high numbers has been invaluable for growing my business and dominating my keywords. This software is a must have for anyone who is serious about their SEO efforts."
Isaac Caasi
(website is a secret)
"Essential, must-have software for any serious webmaster or SEO expert.
Pros: What great things can I say about the SubmitEaze software that haven't already been said? I mean, wow! For anyone who's ever found themselves in the middle of a link building campaign knows that directory submissions are not only extremely effective but essential to gaining successful search engine rankings.
It doesn't matter if you've only got 1 site or 100's, this tool will save you valuable time and money. After submitting just one site to over 1,000 directories the SubmitEaze software has paid for itself. Great customer service, and a great product!
Cons: The SubmitEaze software has streamlined the link submitting process for me so much that I have too much free time on my hands, and I've found myself surfing the net writing product reviews."
Jeff Spicher, Oregon, USA
Coastal Web Innovations, www.coastalwebinnovations.com
"I have purchased many 'SEO tools' most of them I have regretted the purchase a few days later. SubmitEaze however was different - the software has clearly been made by people who understand how tedious a task directory submissions are, and understands exactly how to make it easier. With the new release I found features I didn't even realise I needed, which makes this my number #1 promotional tool. I really cannot express what a time saver submiteaze is to anybody who regularly submits sites. Directory submissions have increased my sites position to #3 on google in the last 6 months for some quite competitive phrases, thanks largely to SubmitEaze!"
Matt Egginton
Big Free Guide, www.bigfreeguide.com
"SubmitEaze is one of the most incredible, time saving, full-featured SEO software packages I have ever used; I'm glad I found it, I just hope my competitors don't!"
Brad Lessard
MoneyTreeCentral, www.moneytreecentral.com
"Just wanted to say it's been a while since I fired up SubmitEaze and the updates you've added are AWESOME! You guys rock!!!
It's fast, easy, and gives me better control.
Keep suggesting people watch the videos - I always learn something from them."
Julie Weight
"I've been using SubmitEaze for a while, I just upgraded to the 6.0 version and think it's fantastic that you guys offer such good upgrades for free. Your technical support is awesome, I recently caught a virus on my computer and lost everything, including SubmitEaze, so I downloaded it again but my license key didn't work. I e-mailed you guys about it and you gave me another license for free, I was very impressed with that. I can't think of anything to make better."
Ryan Clark
"The SubmitEaze software is an incredible tool that makes submitting your websites to directories a snap. After using their software for my first website and seeing the results, I am completely sold. I would strongly recommend SubmitEaze to anyone and it's worth at least triple the price for the amount of time it saves you!"
Ian Brown
OnlyInBoards, www.onlyinboards.com
"I love the software. I run linking campaigns for 9 websites and it is a real time saver, not just with the speed and ease of submitting to directories, but with the comprehensive directory list included I no longer need to search the internet myself to find directories to submit to. See you at the top!"

READ about Piers Morgan's long career in journalism here.
On Tuesday evening, 35 days before the "fiscal cliff", "Piers Morgan Tonight" welcomed experts Robert Reich and Carol Roth to the program where the two debated the statement by business magnate and investor Warren Buffett. As paraphrased by Piers Morgan, Buffett is of the opinion that "the combination of reduced spending and a few higher taxes for the wealthier people in America is the perfect answer."
"You're comparing apples to oranges," responded Roth. "The amount of tax hikes we're talking about here, Piers, are about three percent of the GDP."
"Having a three percent increase in taxes as a percentage of the GDP," continued Roth, "will throw us back into a recession."
"I don't think that's correct." argued Reich. "We have an almost record percentage of total national income going to the wealthiest one percent of Americans."
"They are paying a lower tax rate today," said Reich, "and effective tax rates that they paid in about 80 years and it will help solve the problem because that means more revenues into government. Almost everybody, everybody who has looked at this issue, common sense party people, will say that you've got to have some balance between spending cuts and tax increases, particularly on the wealthy."
Earlier in the program, chairman of the Republican National Committee, Reince Priebus emerged from "below the parapet", as described by Morgan, and talked about his thoughts on the election, saying "I think that what we can conclude is that we've got to be better, and that's something that we're committed to doing."
"I think our grassroots and our donors are all committed to doing more and doing more of a sustained operation in the years to come."
Priebus also reaffirmed that even in hindsight, Romney was still the ideal presidential pick for the GOP. "I think he would have made a great president," said Priebus. "I think most people that were polled actually thought that he would make a better president than even Barack Obama."
Watch the clips, and listen to the interviews, as "Piers Morgan Tonight" continues their coverage of emerging politics and developments on the fiscal cliff.

Dear Piers, I have watched you for a year. After last night I refuse to watch anymore. I thought you were supposed to be non biased. You clearly have a political agenda. Your demeanor and questions were out of control.I'm sure you don't care but I hope you think about it during your next interview'. Remember it is supposed to be an interview
What is your net worth? 20+ million and are you even a USA citizen? If so, this will clearly effect you and have to pay your share for the National debt and ObamaCare.
Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's". In other words, "Rich people, pay your proper rightful Caesar y tax's"!
Robert Reich should not say I think. If he is having a civilised conversation then saying I think that such and such is the case, instead of saying that it is the case is an amiable way of inviting disagreement, of allowing others to stretch their economic legs and with practice grow in the art of conversation and that of talking of the topic, economics in this case. Saying I think is less intimidating than saying this is the situation, but when he is talking about what he in fact does know to be the case on television, when for one there is not time to let everyone give their opinion and then to right all the direction the company has taken the conversation in, in ht eend to afirm his knowledge more firmly having allowed others to practice a bit, he should take in a less hesitant way of talking so as to to stop the general public being gullied by the first propoganda expert who twists the truth. He should be firmer about economic truths.
These republican women look merely pretty or glamorous but they are really little blue stockings with an extrodinary amount of facts in their heads and are as fast and agile as all hell, they are a mass of learnt lines that they can spout out at any moment to confuse issues and they need equally tough talkers to go into exchanges with them.
He also should explain why the taxing the rich more does not effect the economy. It is useful if experts give you the facts you need when friends and relatives try to argue you down and he just stated that taxing the super rich does not reduce the economy or grow it necessarily without explaining why. As we have people like the petrol companies mounting campagns to fill the public with their particualr version of things, so that the public is full of arguements that they can use to back up republican points of veiw, those that feel the versions the loobies are paying for so much time and effort to promulgate are wrong, have to pull out all the stops to inform the public so that the public have the arguements they need to refute the petrol companies and the bankers and such.
As being a purveyor of information in interveiws is not their normal job, experts should go through all the interveiws they give and maybe that others do to, looking for ways to present their material better in the short time this sort of interveiw gives them, so as to gain practice in this feild. rose macaskie madrid.
Good job, Carol Roth! If that interview was a fight, the ref would have stepped in to stop it. Instead, Piers did. More Carol, please!
It seems to me that Washington doesn't care much about what they average American citizen thinks should be done with the tax code, loop holes and special deductions. Perhaps many people would like to hear how Chris Christe would design a new tax code if he had a "magic wand"….(and without lobbyists influence!)
Robert Reich's rationale is fundamentally preposterous. The tax increases proposed against the wealthy serve no systemic benefit whatsoever, particularly to the middle class. It's been demonstrated that the tax increases leftists desire would fund current federal spending for just 8 days. This entire debate is absurd. If this paltry revenue increase were the salve for our nation's economic woes, then the government could print or borrow the funds to spur the growth they anticipate will improve the economy while, at the same time, preserving capital reinvestment and spending. The reason they don't do this is because they know the entire exercise is a Marxist farce. This is an intellectually, financially and morally disingenuous argument and leftists know it.
Reich was already proven miserably wrong in his economic analysis over the past four years alone. How many swings at the economic pinata do networks plan to give him?
Reich and Krugman are great fans of Keynsian stimulus, so why not go full retard? Since neither party is willing to have the grown up discussion that the system is unsustainable (9% Federal healthcare spending increases year over year means over a trillion dollars in healthcare spending in a decade). Give every taxpayer $50 K in stinulus check, then execute the rich as class enemies and take everything they have. That should set up some Schumpeter style "creative destruction" to restart the economy. After the Dark Ages, that is... But at least the GOP could do the "I told you so" dance in 2016 (assuming we're not shooting it out in the ruins of the burned out cities...)

MZone Exclusive: 2010 College Football Coaches' Halloween Party
What a bash!
Below are a few of the pictures we snapped at the shindig. Whatever you do, don't pass these around. Some of the coaches might get pissed and ban us from the party next year which is supposed to be at Saban's place.
Speaking of Saban, Alabama's $4 Million Dollar Man showed up as a doctor since he hands out so many medical scholarships each year.
And we still don't know what Vol coach Derek Dooley was thinking coming as World War II German General Erwin Rommel. Even Joe Pa thought it was tacky. And he would know since he served in WWII.
Or was it WWI?
And good to see Dan Hawkins has a sense of humor about his situation. He came as Freddy Krueger since Colorado can't seem to get rid of him.
Chip Kelly had everybody in stitches. Dude can party. Does beer bongs the entire night in in under :20 seconds. Actually times himself. Fucking animal. He came as Darth Vader because his offense is like the Death Star in STAR WARS, destroying every team in its path.
Shit - who the hell invited Lane Kiffin?
Most uncomfortable moment of the night came when Mack Brown, Urban Meyer and Bob Stoops were all standing around the keg saying that, because his team is #1 in the latest BCS poll, they thought Auburn coach Gene Chizik would be there - and Chizik was right next to them, dressed as Gene Chizik, but nobody recognized him.
Talk about awkward.
Was great to see MSU's Mark Dantanio feeling well enough to attend and making light of his recent health issues.
Les "The Mad Hatter" Miles came, too. But he got there just as everybody was leaving. Guy thought the party was tomorrow night, not last night. Shocker.
Tressel, Tressel, Tressel. Jesus, he really never does take that vest off!
Boise State's Chris Petersen and TCU's Gary Patterson crashed the party together, although they had a hard time getting in at first.
Poor Brian Kelly. He had already purchased his costume before Notre Dame's game last weekend. So while he thought he was coming as a sailor, behind his back the other coaches were calling him Navy's bitch.
Really, Schiano? We know you love Jersey but...
And a couple coaches kept a football theme with their costumes.
Rich Rodriguez came as Vince Lombardi. He wanted to wear something else, but by the time he got to Wal-Mart to buy his costume this week, he said the Halloween shelves were pretty much empty and implied that it was Lloyd Carr's fault.
And we don't think Rich Rod was too happy when Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh showed up in his costume.
Almost looked like a fight might break out between Rodriguez and Harbaugh until Wisconsin's Bret Bielema got there and everybody burst out laughing which eased the tension. What the hell was Bret thinking?
Okay, Andy and I are leaving the MZone office early and calling it a day. Each of us needs to go home and get some sleep. We're exhausted. Big thanks to Neuheisal for inviting us. And sorry about the sofa. My bad. Never gonna mix beer and shots again after eating a burrito.
Oh, and while Paterno may be 83, he sure knows how to do a beer bong. He was the only guy who came close to keeping up with Chip Kelly.

Well done!
I'd like to see Saban in a doctor's outfit given all of the medical scholarships Alabama has given out to crappy players since he came on board.
Also, why is Kiffin not wearing a costume? Did you guys forget to photoshop him??

Given the circumstances, the Bluffton High boys basketball team had a superb opening night Tuesday.
The Bobcats cruised to a 75-61 non-region victory against visiting Battery Creek, despite missing three of their top six players.
"I'm happy. I thought we played really well," said coach Brett Macy, who got only a week to practice with a full roster before Tuesday's season opener.
All but two of Bluffton's rotation players played football until Nov. 23, when the Bobcats were eliminated in the SCHSL Class AAAA semifinals.
One of those players, Demetrius Smalls, showed no signs of rust against Battery Creek. The senior guard displayed a smooth 3-point stroke and led the Bobcats with 20 points.
Smalls, a standout wide receiver for the football team, put Bluffton ahead 22-10 with a three from the left wing just before the end of the first quarter.
The Bobcats stayed in control throughout, as Smalls drilled two more long-range shots to inflate the lead to 47-27 early in the second half.
Bluffton played without senior starters C.J. Frazier and Marquis Webber, who were preparing for Saturday's North-South All-Star football game inMyrtle Beach.
Forward Chance Murphy did not dress out. Macy said he was dealing with an Achilles tendon injury and could be back for a meeting withHilton Head Islandon Friday.
Still, the Bobcats maintained a double-digit lead over the final three quarters.
Battery Creek (0-2) got within 10 points with about two minutes remaining, but forward Harlan Kendrick scored two quick buckets to quell any attempt at a comeback. Kendrick posted up for one basket, then scored on a fast break for a 71-57 lead with 1:45 left.
"I think we played OK for having only one week of practice," Kendrick said, "but still a lot of work to do."
Boys: Bluffton 75, Battery Creek 61
BL-Demetrius Smalls 20, Harlan Kendrick 11, Ahdonus Cofer 11, Jae Middleton 11, Austin Chittum 8, Anthony Smith 6, Jeremy Scott 5, B.J. Hill 3.
Battery Creek girls pull away
The season got off to a rocky start for a young Bluffton girls basketball team Tuesday.
The Bobcats hung with Battery Creek most of the way, but things got away from them late in a 64-50, season-opening loss.
"The first game is always a measuring stick," coach Lonnie Roberts said. "But it's still the early part of the season, and we've got a lot more games to play."
Battery Creek (1-1) had no trouble getting to the rim in the second half, as speedy guard Daisja Cannon repeatedly cut through the Bluffton defense and finished with a game-high 33 points.
The Bobcats (0-1) led 29-26 at the end of the first half, and Cannon opened the third quarter with a three-point play. She scored on transition near the end of the period for a 40-38 Dolphin lead entering the fourth.
Bluffton never led in the fourth quarter, but got within 47-46 on an Annadet Giles basket with about four minutes left. Battery Creek went on a 9-1 run and Bluffton's Autumn Card hit a three to make it 56-50.
The Bobcats, playing without their two most experienced players, were shut out over the final 94 seconds and the Dolphins extended their lead. Johnnie Gaston sat out with an injury and Dynasty Mervin did not play for disciplinary reasons, Roberts said.
Sophomore Tiffany Banks led Bluffton with 14 points. Giles and Card finished with 11 apiece.
Girls: Battery Creek 64, Bluffton 50
BC-Daisja Cannon 33, Alisha Varela 9, Alex Bazemore 8, Elizabeth Ford 6, Briana Tolbert 2, Erica Alston 1, Matalyn Dearsman 1.
BL-Tiffany Banks 14, Autumn Card 11, Annadet Giles 11, Monique Whitley 6, Tatyana Fripp 6, Amber Klitzsch 2.

Senate panel approves Syria measure
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted narrowly Wednesday to give President Barack Obama the authority to strike Syria, setting the stage for a floor battle that will illustrate deep divisions on Capitol Hill about the merits of military action against the Assad regime.
The vote in the committee was 10-7, with Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) voting present. The approval came after a three-hour briefing with top Obama administration officials, including Secretary of State John Kerry and James Clapper, the director of national intelligence — the latest in a string of classified discussions about the Assad regime's alleged use of chemical weapons.
Story Continued Below
Top administration officials are expected back on the Hill later this week for joint House-Senate briefings.
( PHOTOS: Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Syria)
"We commend the Senate for moving swiftly and for working across party lines on behalf of our national security. We believe America is stronger when the President and Congress work together," a White House spokesman said in a statement after the vote.
Still, the tally in the Foreign Relations Committee shows the difficult climb facing Obama and Senate Democratic leaders when the measure moves to the floor. Two Democrats on the committee — Tom Udall of New Mexico and Chris Murphy of Connecticut — rejected the authorization. And five Republicans on the panel — including potential 2016 contenders Rand Paul of Kentucky and Marco Rubio of Florida — voted against the measure.
"If you look at the universe of who voted in favor of the resolution, you go from people whose views are those of Sen. [John] McCain to individuals with views of those of Sen. [Dick] Durbin," Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) said after the vote. "I think that's a pretty good width of spectrum of views within the Senate of the United States."
A Senate source said Democratic leadership would begin whipping votes for the full Senate as soon as the resolution cleared the committee. That effort would begin over the weekend by telephone but would truly begin next week at Democratic caucus lunches when senators return from a five-week break. Menendez said earlier Wednesday that the authorization resolution would likely need 60 votes in the Senate.
Under the plan drafted by Menendez and Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.), President Barack Obama could authorize air strikes against Syria for 60 days, with the possibility of an additional 30-day extension. It would also prohibit ground forces in the country. The limited scope is intended to alleviate concerns that an open-ended resolution could prompt an extended military conflict beyond what a war-weary American public would accept.
But the narrow scope has also prompted a range of concerns that such an attack would be ineffective. Indeed, heading into the briefing, leading defense hawk Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) voiced concern over the resolution; afterwards he said there would need to be some changes in order to win his backing.
( Also on POLITICO: How committee members voted)
"I feel in the strongest terms that we need to have that provision that calls for reversal of momentum on the ground in the battle against Bashar Assad," McCain told reporters.
McCain got his wish later in the day. A pair of amendments were approved by voice vote from McCain and Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) that called for a "change of momentum" on the ground that ends the Syrian civil war and said Congress supports arming vetted elements of the Syrian opposition. But despite the voice vote, there was clear dissension on the panel, with Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) saying those changes would make it harder for approval in the House.

I put the show on to watch it but David Letterman annoyed me so much at the start, that I switched the TV off before Jim was on, so I missed it. American late night shows are SO different to British shows.

Amazon.com Inc. has begun selling fresh-cut flowers to customers in the 48 contiguous U.S. states. Called the Amazon Curated Flowers Collection, the new store launched in early August, the retailer confirmed, declining to provide further details.
Six assortments of 15 to 25 roses or lilies, with or without vases, are available in the collection today. Amazon's Prime and Super Saver Shipping programs both apply to the buds, allowing consumers to receive free shipping on their orders. The web site does not specify how fast the flowers are delivered, but says all deliveries are expedited to ensure freshness.
One customer who ordered a dozen roses writes in a review on the Amazon Curated Flowers Collection product page that he ordered the flowers on Wednesday and received them on Friday. He also writes that the flowers arrived in a rectangular box in clear wrapping. The product page does not reveal from where Amazon sources its flowers.
Customers may request a gift message with their flowers. Amazon says it is working on a tool to schedule deliveries for special occasions, according to the FAQs on the product pages; that feature is not yet available.
A dozen red roses in a vase from the Amazon Curated Flowers Collection costs $34.28. The same order with the most basic vase option from competitor 1-800-Flowers.com Inc. costs $49.99 before shipping; from FTD Group Inc. it costs $30 before shipping. Amazon sellers including Pro Flowers and From You Flowers offer comparable products on the retailer's e-marketplace for $19.99 and $24.99 before shipping, respectively.
In the last two months Amazon has also begun selling fine art and autographed sports memorabilia in specialty stores on its e-commerce site. Last November, it made another gourmet move by opening a wine store, too.
Amazon is No. 1 in the 2013 Top 500 Guide. 1-800-Flowers is No. 58 and FTD is No. 85.
In 2012, the 12 Top 500 retailers selling specifically in the flowers/gifts category grew their web sales by about 8.3%, to $1.43 billion from $1.32 billion in 2011.

High School Students To Star at Summer Science Program, Dec. 12, 2006
by Richard Bowdon, Executive Director, SSP
SOCORRO, N.M., Dec. 12, 2006 -- Applications are now open for the 2007 Summer Science Program (SSP), a six week residential enrichment program in which small teams of gifted high school students apply physics, calculus, and programming to determine the orbit of an asteroid from their own observations.
One of the oldest (since 1959) and most successful pre-college research programs, SSP is held on the campus of New Mexico Tech in Socorro, and a second campus in California. Current juniors and outstanding sophomores are eligible to apply; deadlines are February 23 (first round) and March 23 (final). For the third year, New Mexico residents who are admitted may attend at no charge; SSP will waive the $3,400 program fee.
Bright teenagers from around the world come to SSP to spend their days in college-level lectures, and their nights doing hands-on astronomical research (to be later archived at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics). Guest lectures from prominent scientists (many of whom are themselves alumni), and field trips to places like the Very Large Array of radio telescopes and Magdalena Ridge Observatory round out the curriculum.
Students describe SSP as an intense, stimulating intellectual and social environment – "the educational experience of a lifetime." Emphasis is on teamwork and cooperation; neither grades nor formal credit are given. Enrollment is limited to 36 per campus, and eight faculty members live on-site with the students.
Students, parents, and teachers are encouraged to visit www.summerscience.org for more information and an online application. SSP is managed and largely funded by its own alumni. Additional support for the Socorro campus comes from New Mexico Tech and Lockheed Martin / Sandia National Labs.

If you are going to have a tips area for users to follow, make sure you take into account the racial bonus before you make a suggestion.
I am a troll hunter, and in the tips area of the user's stats, it says that I am 328 expertise below the cap, which is wrong since I have a 1% racial bonus on expertise.
328 expertise is I believe equivalent to 1%, so I am at 7.54% expertise in stead of 6.54% expertise.

PriceRitePhoto: Want to Cancel Your Order? We'll Sue
Tech blogger Thomas Hawk has fallen prey to yet another crooked New York camera shop. This particular retarded retailer is called 'PriceRitePhoto.com'—although we're sure that they'll be changing their name soon enough, after all the bad chatter flung their way.
Check out these choice threats from their 'manager,' Steve Philips:
"I will make sure you will never be able to place an order on the internet again." "I'm an attorney, I will sue you." "I will call the CEO of your company and play him the tape of this phone call." "I'm going to call your local police and have two officers come over and arrest you." "You'd better get this through your thick skull." "You have no idea who you are dealing with."
There's nothing The Consumerist loves more than eking out a few extra dollars in savings by shopping off the beaten path, but thanks to douchenozzles like Price Rite Photo, we're forced to stick to the trusted retailers like Adorama.
But even though Hawk should know better than to buy from an unknown camera retailer, he does post another serious question: How does a company that is so obviously run by slimebags have a four out of five star rating on Yahoo Shopping?

- 1 Purpose
- 2 How to use the AUR
- 3 The User and the AUR
The ArchLinux User-community Repository (AUR) is a community driven repository for Arch users. It contains package descriptions that allow you to compile a package from source and then install it via Pacman. This document shows the normal user how to access AUR using the web interface and how to work with AUR.
How to use the AUR
Searching the AUR
Open a browser and go to the AUR package page
Search queries for Name actually searches package name and description via a MySQL LIKE comparison. If you need to search for a description that contains '%' escape it with '\%'. This means you can make searches a little more flexible. Try searching for 'tool%like%grep' vs 'tool like grep'.
Installing Packages from the AUR
To install a package found in AUR (aka the UNSUPPORTED repository) follow the steps listed below:
Included in these steps is an example installation of a package called "foo".
- First make sure that the necessary tools are installed. The package group "base-devel" should be sufficient, as it includes makepkg and the tools needed for compiling from source.
pacman -Sy base-devel
- Next choose an appropriate build directory. A build directory is simply a directory where the package will be made or "built" and can be any directory. Examples of commonly used directories are:
- or if using ABS (Arch Build System):
- For more information on ABS go to the ABS page. The example will use
~/buildsas the build directory.
- locate the package in the AUR. This is done using the search feature, to navigate to this feature from the AUR home page click on the "packages" link in the top right menu. Clicking the application's name in the search list brings up an information page on the package. Read through the description to make sure this is the desired package, it is also good to check when the package was last updated and read any comments.
- Download the necessary build files. From the package's information page download the build files by clicking the link "Tarball" on the left hand side near the end of the page. This file should be saved to a build directory, but could be copied to the directory after downloading. In the example the file download should be called "foo.tar.gz" if it has been properly submitted.
- Extract the tarball. Change directories to the build directory if not already done and extract the build files.
cd ~/builds
tar -xvzf foo.tar.gz
This should create a new directory called "foo" in the build directory.
- IMPORTANT Carefully check all files. Change directories to the newly created directory and carefully check the PKGBUILD and any .install file for malicious commands. If in any doubt DO NOT build the package and seek advice on the forums or mailing list.
cd foo
<favourite text editor> PKGBUILD # Carefully check
# Carefully check any other files like .install
- Make the package. After manually confirming the integrity of the files run makepkg as a normal user in the build directory.
makepkg -s
This will use sudo to install any dependencies, if the use of sudo is undesirable use fakeroot (see below) and don't include the "-s" in the makepkg command.
- Install the package using pacman. A tarball should have been created that is named:
<applications name>-<version number>-<architecture>.pkg.tar.gz.
this package can be installed using the upgrade command of pacman.
pacman -U foo-0.1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
Please Note: the above is a brief summary of the package building process. A visit to the ABS page will provide full details, and is highly recommended, particularly for first-time packagers.
fakeroot simply allows a normal user the necessary root permissions to create pkgs in the build environment without being able to alter the wider system. If the build process attempts to alter files outside of the build environment then errors are produced and the build fails - this is very useful for checking the quality/safety/integrity of PKGBUILDs for distribution. By default
export USE_FAKEROOT="y" is included in
/etc/makepkg.conf, so unless you have switched it off it is already enabled.
Submitting Packages to UNSUPPORTED
After logging in to the AUR web interface, a user can submit a gzipped tarball (tar.gz) of a directory containing build files for a package. The directory inside the tarball should contain a PKGBUILD, any .install files, patches, etc (ABSOLUTELY no binaries). Examples of what such a directory should look like can be seen inside /var/abs.
Note that this is a gzipped tarball - assuming you're uploading a package called 'libfoo', when you create the file it should look similar to this:
$ ls -a libfoo . .. PKGBUILD libfoo.install $ makepkg --source
# List contents of tarball. $ tar tf libfoo-0.1-1.src.tar.gz libfoo/ libfoo/PKGBUILD libfoo/libfoo.install
When submitting a package, observe the following rules:
- Check [core], [extra], and [community] for the package. If it is inside any of those repositories in ANY form, DO NOT submit the package (if the current package is broken or is lacking an included feature then please file a bug report in FlySpray).
- Check UNSUPPORTED for the package. If it is currently maintained, changes can be submitted in a comment for the maintainer's attention. If it is unmaintained, the package can be adopted and updated as required.
- Verify carefully that what you are uploading is correct. All contributors must read and adhere to the Arch Packaging Standards when writing PKGBUILDs. This is essential to the smooth running and general success of the AUR. Remember you are not going to earn any credit or respect from your peers by wasting their time with a bad PKGBUILD.
- Packages that contain binaries or that are very poorly written may be deleted without warning.
- If you are unsure about the package (or the build/submission process) in any way, submit the PKGBUILD to the AUR Mailing List or the AUR boards on the forum for public review before adding it to the AUR.
- Make sure the package is useful. Will anyone else want to use this package? Is it extremely specialized? If more than a few people would find this package useful, it is appropriate for submission.
- Gain some experience before submitting packages. Build a few packages to learn the process and then submit.
- If you submit a package.tar.gz with a file named 'package' in it you'll get a an error: 'Could not change to directory /home/aur/unsupported/package/package'. To resolve this rename the file named 'package' to something else, for example, 'package.rc'. When it is installed in the pkg directory you may rename it back to 'package'.
Maintaining Packages in UNSUPPORTED
- Check for feedback and comments from other users and try to incorporate any improvements they suggest; consider it a learning process!
- Please DO NOT just submit and forget about packages! While in UNSUPPORTED, it is the user's job to maintain the package by checking for updates and improving the PKGBUILD.
- If you do not want to continue to maintain the package for some reason,
disownthe pkg using the AUR web interface and/or post a message to the AUR Mailing List.
The User and the AUR
The normal user plays an essential role in the AUR and without the support, involvement and contribution of the wider user community the AUR cannot fulfill its potential. The lifecycle of an AUR package starts and ends with the user and requires the user to contribute in several ways.
Sharing PKGBUILDs in UNSUPPORTED
Users can share PKGBUILDs using the UNSUPPORTED area in the AUR. UNSUPPORTED does not contain any binary packages but allows users to upload PKGBUILDs that can be downloaded by others. A comments facility allows users to provide suggestions and feedback on improvements to the PKGBUILD contributor. These PKGBUILDs are completely unofficial and have not been thoroughly vetted, so they should be used at your own risk.
There is not and will never be an official mechanism for downloading build material from UNSUPPORTED, but there are many scripts and tools which can do so.
The [community] repo is a supplement to the [extra] and [core] repositories where the most popular packages from UNSUPPORTED are maintained by the Trusted Users group on behalf of the users. [community], unlike UNSUPPORTED, contains binary packages that can be installed directly with pacman and the build files can also be accessed with ABS. Some of these packages may eventually make the transition to the [core] or [extra] repositories as the developers consider them crucial to the distribution.
Users can access the AUR [community] repo by adding/uncommenting this line in their pacman.conf file (enabled by default):
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist does not exist then it should be created and contain the following:
[community] Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/community/os/i686/
Users can also access the [community] build files by editing
/etc/abs.conf and removing the exclamation mark from in front of the community repo (disabled by default), as follows:
REPOS=(core extra community !testing)
One of the easiest activities for all Arch users is to browse the AUR and vote for their favorite packages using the online interface. All packages are eligible for adoption by a TU for inclusion in [community], and the vote count is one of the considerations in that process - so it is in everyone's interest to vote!
Install an AUR Helper
AUR Helpers add seamless access to the AUR. They vary in their features, but can ease in searching, fetching, building, and installing from PKGBUILDs found in AUR.
All of these scripts can be found in UNSUPPORTED.

Two things happened this morning that made me want to hop on here and type up something blasting Christianity once again…and it's sad that this shit happens daily.
FIRST THING - I check Facebook this morning and read someone posting the lame ass 'copy/paste" if you're ______ is in heaven. Well, based on the Christian handbook (The Bible), your loved ones are NOT in heaven, but chilling in the ground and waiting on judgment day.
1 Corinthians 15:51-53
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
These verses tell us that the dead shall be raised and changed….basically to a spiritual form to face final judgment.
Now, why would your loved ones need to be raised from the dead to face final judgment if they are already in heaven? Did God let them in on the secret early, let them get a preview of heaven? This is just one (of many) facts from the Bible that Christians don't agree with, so they don't teach it and basically teach what the people WANT to hear instead of what is actually there.
SECOND THING - The Texas Board of Education adopts a new social studies and history guideline. Basically, a board (mostly made up of Christian Republicans) is playing politics with education and trying to push their agendas…which is just another way to brainwash kids into growing up both Christian and Republican.
The problem is that the textbooks that Texas uses are used through most of the country.
One thing that was trying to get changed is using B.C.E - C.E instead of B.C - A.D. Currently, what we use is based on fictional stories from the Bible. B.C.E (Before (Current, Common or Christian) and C.E. would be something that EVERYONE could use, not just Christians. You could say it means current or Christian, depending on your beliefs.
Christians shot that down because it wasn't forcing everyone to acknowledge their beliefs and they just can't have that.
But it doesn't stop there, it was also voted to change our U. S. government to a "constitutional republic" rather than "democratic"; I guess democratic was too close to Democrat.
Other changes were made to try to tone down the influence of Athiest's such as Thomas Jefferson and strengthening the requirements on teaching Judeo-Christian influences of the nation's Founding Fathers and attempting to water down rationale for the separation of church and state.
This is how you get into the situation we are in now; you allow a few people to "tweak" historical facts here and there, and over years those facts will be forgotten. The fact is that our nation was founded on "freedom of religion", many of our Founding Fathers were either Atheist or just against Christianity in general and they REFUSED to acknowledge Christianity as an influence or a national religion, which is exactly why this nation was created.
However, with each small tweak here and change there, the Christians are slowly trying to change history to reflect their "point of view" which happens to be the exact opposite of the truth….
Love, Peace and Sharkyness!
