The First Wine Blog to List Ingredients
After months of soul searching and consideration, and in the interest of transparency and full disclosure, I have decided to list the ingredients and processes that go into each piece on HoseMaster of Wine™. I am hopeful that my candor and honesty will spread throughout the wine blog world. As it stands now, when you read a wine blog you have no idea what went into the blog, aside from alcohol-fueled stupidity and the vocabulary of a porpoise, i.e. whistling through the blowhole. Nothing harmful is ever added to a HoseMaster of Wine™ article, though nausea can be a direct side effect. If you find yourself becoming slightly nauseated when reading, it's wise to either induce vomiting, or, if you're uncomfortable sticking a finger down your own throat, here's a link that should work.
Once you've read through the ingredients, demand of other bloggers that they do the same for their blogs. Ask yourself, what are they hiding? Consider never reading any wine blog that doesn't list its ingredients. Many are dangerous and cause irreparable brain damage; others are known to have caused cutting. I know a woman who cannot read Wild Walla Walla Wine Woman without slowly slicing her forearms with a Ginsu knife. While clearly appropriate, this is dangerous behavior induced by the blog's content. At least the knife isn't dull.
And, also, remember not to vote for any wine blog nominated for a Poodle Award that hasn't fully disclosed its ingredient list. This would set a terrible precedent. Winners could do harm to unsuspecting new readers—there have been reports of headaches, sleep apnea and erectile dysfunction, but those reports are unconfirmed, and why would you believe my wife anyway? The wine blog world is nearly ten years old now. Isn't it time we disclose what we're made of?
Venom: It takes plenty of venom to produce HoseMaster of Wine™. Most wine blogs have very little venom content. In fact, most have little content at all. Remember, if you have been bitten by one of my blog posts, it will hurt for a moment, but don't panic. Rather than overreact, experts recommend you suck it.
Wine: Inebriation is a key ingredient and I never skimp. I ask that you use HoseMaster of Wine™ responsibly and in moderation. Do not operate heavy machinery while reading. Do not read if you are pregnant. If you are thinking about becoming pregnant, call me. Operators are standing by, but I don't care if they watch if you don't. If reading the blog with a group, please use a Designated Reader who is to remain sober and never laugh. Well, the never laugh part is easy.
Artificial Sweeteners: Occasionally something sweet appears in HoseMaster of Wine™. Trust me, this is artificial.
Thought: Only tiny bits of thought are ever used in the production of HoseMaster of Wine™, but at least it's not some stupid compendium of links to other websites that takes no goddam thought at all.
Wit Substitutes: In the absence of wit, which is known to be carcinogenic, I use wit substitutes. Common wit substitutes include puns, long sentences that sound like wit but really aren't, sarcastic remarks that widely miss the mark (often called "snarky" by ignorant shitheads), and Randall Grahm sloppy seconds. Wit substitutes are rarely found in wine blogs, which seem to prefer going entirely witless.
Irony: Just listing irony is ironic. Isn't that ironic? Hell, I put the "ron" in ironic. And without a condom.
Meat Byproducts: Strictly to protect against unwanted Spam.
HoseMaster of Wine™ was produced in a facility that handles my nuts. If you are allergic to my nuts, you are advised to read another blog, or to ingest a small part of my nuts on a daily basis until the allergy subsides.
HoseMaster of Wine™ has been known to cause birth defects in lab rats, like we give a fuck about lab rats.
If after reading HoseMaster of Wine™ you have an erection lasting more than four hours, well, that's just about average. Try harder.
Objects appearing in HoseMaster of Wine™ are closer than they appear. Objects appearing in my pants are larger than they appear.
By law, HoseMaster of Wine™ is allowed to contain small pieces of rat turd, otherwise known as the Hundred Point Scale.
Do not use HoseMaster of Wine™ in an enclosed space. The fumes are explosive. If you smell anything resembling Grüner Veltliner, immediately open the windows and shout, "It wasn't me, it was the dog." In an actual emergency, an oxygen mask will drop from the ceiling. Place the mask over your face, inhale like you have emphysema, and say, "Luke, I'm your father."
Void where prohibited by law.

Do I or do I not click on that link? It's too early in the day to be this anxious. But seriously, when your book is published may I write a blurb for the jacket, even the back of the jacket?

For God's Sake, don't click on the link! If you do, however, remember that there is an air sickness bag in the pouch in front of you. Don't let the kangaroo kick you when you reach for it.
When I publish my book (yeah, right) I'll be writing my own blurbs. But, don't worry, I'll put your name on the best one.

Oh, man, I forgot to put NSFW after the link. But, at least, it isn't a goatse (I had to look that up, or is it, look up that?), though, from a philosophical standpoint, it's the equivalent.

I don't think I want to read the content list of most blogs. Of course, I don't read most blogs so it may not matter.
As for irony, my parents were in iron and steel, which is almost the same thing. My mother ironed and my father stole.

Ron My Love,
This is fantastic. I find it ever so important to what it is I'm ingesting at all times. I'm still taking the nut therapy you put me on but I have one very important question, are you gluten free?!
Another winner babe. I love you!

Wow! I had no IDEA there were so many ingredients in the HoseMaster's blog. (Just goes to show you the importance of full disclosure, eh? [DISCLOSURE: That "eh" is in honor of the upcoming blog awards' Canadian event location.])
Given the lengthy ingredient list, it makes you wonder what you'd find in a would-be Nutrition Facts list (besides warnings that all that laughing could be hazardous to your Monday morning bad mood)?
I see double entendres didn't make the list. Could that be because the Great Blogging Authority requires each single entendre to be listed separately? :-)

Now get this: The HoseMaster has not one but two candidates for best blog post of the year. A third of the field, in other words. The down side, of course, is the potential for a split vote.

What? No sturgeon bladder or pectolytics? What about ammonium phosphate?
On a more serious note, I voted for you in almost every category. You rock!

My Gorgeous Samantha,
Well, my nuts were gluten-free until I got that yeast infection...
Marcia Love,
No nutrients in HoseMaster, though I do have huge bulimic following, which helps.
Me? Serious? You must be new here. I'm only serious about being stupid.
I'm the HoseMaster's ghost writer. He's a fraud. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.
How 'bout that. You wouldn't happen to know who's responsible for that outrage, would you? I should have all six nominations.
Marlene My Darling,
I don't have a sturgeon bladder, but I think my prostate is from a baboon. Does that count?
Thanks for wasting your votes on me, Love. I really don't see winning, mostly because I don't FaceBook or Tweet or otherwise toot my own horny. But it should get interesting.

Wit? A sense of humor?? Wine and food writing is just so open for humor but so few do it.. and these humorless turds get so pissed off if you dare make a joke..
In my piece on Alan Richman I said he has first rate knowledge combined with a rapier wit... describing Jean Georges joint in Vegas.. you know you could run over this steak with a car and no juice would come out of it... supposedly it really hacked off JG and there went their friendship..

You are absolutely correct! My apologies, my humble apologies, to everyone who regularly makes my Comments section the best, the smartest, the wittiest Comments section in the wine blog world. I am often, very often, told that people read my comments section and like it more than they like my pieces. I agree.
A sincere thank you to all of you. I look forward twice a week to your contributions. Damn, now I'm an NPR pledge drive.
Yeah, everyone likes satire when it's aimed at someone else. They want you to be impartial, aim your sights at everyone, be an equal opportunity jackass, so long as the target isn't on their back. I'm used to it.
We are married, and we adopted STEVE! That's one too many.
Penticton sounds like the Pentagon with blood-sucking insects. So, the Pentagon.

Ron darlng, I certainly did not waste my votes. You are the one voice of humor in a totally fuc#*d little corner of the universe. In most parts of the country (except for the coasts and a few pockets of sophistication in the mid west, wine is considered a drink for pussies, by "manly men."
Wine writers take ourselves WAY too seriously. How many times can we read/write about terroir... or is it terrier? How many times can we read the same reviews on the same wines?
And as for your baboon prostate: get a doughnut pillow (or just a doughnut) and sit on it!!!

Marlene Darling,
I love you, you know.
Maybe all those nominations, which I neither solicited nor encouraged and certainly won't campaign for, are some support for what you're saying.
As I've noted, winemakers and other folks in the biz tend to like my foolishness, irreverence and approach to wine writing. It's often bloggers, stuffy wine writers, and winery marketing types that find me offensive or hate me. Which is exactly the point, for me.
Anyhow, Marlene, thank you for voting for me. Though I'm going online to find wine for pussies.
Yeah, it's sort of like Ann Coulter being allowed in Mensa.
No Mega Purple here, my friend. Though Reverse Osmosis is my favorite sexual position in the Kama Sutra.
Unlikely I'll win, but it's been a complete blast to be nominated. I've heard personally from a LOT of nice people congratulating me, wishing me luck and professing their love of my work.
I'm not campaigning to win, except this--if I win all four categories, I'll retire. That should get me some votes.
Beer is for pussies.
- May 21, 2013 at 6:51 PM
Yeah, big manly pussies!

Count me in. I think we should all get together when Ron wins one, or all of those awards that he is way, way over qualified for. They will be lucky to have him and Ron My Love, I am so very proud of you.
I love you so!

My Darling Hose,
I am not sure if I should be flattered that you listed my blog or if I should activate one of my hidden ingredients (venom) and tell you to go fuck yourself and spin on a very dull Ginsu.
In the mean time, congratulations on all of your nominations for the Poodle Awards. I can't think of anyone more deserving.

Under Pressure
A version of this article appears in the January/February 2012 issue of Home Energy Magazine.
January 03, 2012
I find it puzzling that many energy raters and auditors are not curious about what causes the pressure test results they see. Frankly, I find it very discouraging as well, because if they understood the principles behind these tests, they could accurately assess the problem and come up with proper solutions. We find ourselves working backward from a test result to a hypothesis. Instead, we should be trained to spend our time on visual inspections, formulate a hypothesis, and then confirm or reject that hypothesis based on the test results. Unfortunately, most of us simply want someone to feed us an answer based on a test. For heaven's sake, don't make us think!

Governments are leaving the UN's Sustainable Development Summit (Rio +20) with a big deal but little action. Groups of civil society and business have proved they can lead the way towards a sustainable future.
"It's a relief that the outcomes of Rio+20 refer to some basic issues of planetary survival – reducing poverty and reviving nature's health," says IUCN Director General Julia Marton-Lefèvre. "I'm pleased to see that nature based solutions for the problems facing poor people, forests, oceans and water were firmly on the agenda. It's only by investing in nature that we can create a green economy and a sustainable future for everyone."
"But the deal signed here in Rio lays out aspirations rather than specific mandatory goals on issues like food security, water and energy. IUCN would like to see the Sustainable Development Goals deal with the crises facing people and nature through the implementation of the Aichi targets in The Strategic Plan for Biodiversity. We need development goals that apply nature based solutions to address climate change and enhance people's livelihoods."
"Contrary to 1992, Rio+20 did not lift global environmental governance," says Poul Engberg-Pedersen, Deputy Director General of IUCN. "The three 1992 conventions were courageous innovations that, however, are still struggling with implementation. The main governance innovations from Rio+20 are another UN Forum with limited power and a promise of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)."
"We will contribute to the SDGs and actively support the existing conventions. But decisive innovations in governance must now come at the local and national levels, aimed at landscapes and seascapes where public and private powers and citizens meet to determine in practice the governance of nature's use. IUCN will use its global membership and convening power to facilitate effective and equitable natural resource governance, often in transboundary contexts."
"We had hoped for a more ambitious outcome," adds Cyriaque Sendashonga, IUCN's Director of Global Policy. "I hope that the work of civil society and businesses will inspire governments to agree on goals and set the right incentives. We are impressed by the initiatives announced by many local authorities and hope these will carry through into national and international action. We would also like to congratulate the Brazilian Government for its hard work in bringing all countries together to finalise the agreement here in Rio."
"Rio + 20" as opposed to Rio in 1992, welcomed a strong business participation," says Gerard Bos, Director of IUCN's Business and Biodiversity Programme. "During the corporate sustainability forum, more than 2000 participants showcased their current actions and discussed how to scale this up."
"Business did recognize the role played by civil society and NGO's, in the last 20 years, to push them to integrate environmental and social aspects in their corporate strategies. Today, progressive business have moved beyond the legal license to operate and integrate social and environmental dimensions to their business models. They will push through more multi-sectoral partnerships and coalitions with civil society and policy makers to scale this up in order to create new level playing fields for all business. We think there is a key role for IUCN to play in this effort to create a just world that values and conserves nature."
On oceans, Rio sends a clear and urgent call that business as usual is no longer acceptable.
"Ocean health and fisheries are deteriorating. It's time to move toward business "unusual". We must honour previous commitments to end overfishing, eliminate harmful subsidies, stop destructive fishing practices, and safeguard coral reefs and other vital habitats for marine life," says Kristina Gjerde, IUCN's Senior High Seas Advisor.
The decision to delay a decision on managing oceans beyond national jurisdiction is a deep disappointment. IUCN is committed to work with governments to promote immediate action to safeguard marine biodiversity within and beyond national jurisdiction.
On energy, Rio showed us that inspiration for changing the planet's future will come less from agreements among world leaders and much more from partnerships that mobilise innovation, investment and action.
"The UN Secretary General's initiative on Sustainable Energy for All is showing the way, with the governments, the UN, business and NGOs working together to bridge their differences and find a common purpose in changing the planet's energy path," says Mark Smith, Director of IUCN's Water Programme.
The road from Rio now goes on to IUCN's World Conservation Congress in Jeju, South Korea (6-15 September 2012). With State and NGO members working together, the IUCN Congress will develop and apply the agreements made in Rio.

I'm starting to change my stance on Matt Flynn. For the last several months, I've felt that having a good backup has a lot of value and shouldn't be discarded without much thought. Actually, I still feel that way, but I had a bit of a change of heart when I looked up Flynn's contract details at Spotrac today:
Matt Flynn's Cap hit-
2013: $7.25 million (2 mil guaranteed)
2014: $8.25 million (2 mil guaranteed)
For comparison's sake, Flynn's cap hit this season was only $4 million.
Seattle only has an estimated $13.5 million this offseason and that's before signing back our own free agents, among them Jason Jones and Alan Branch. Seattle also needs to have money on hand in 2014 so that they can extend Kam Chancellor (RFA), Doug Baldwin (RFA), Walter Thurmond, and/or Brandon Browner (RFA). The RFA option will really help as a short term fix, but the idea is that you want to have enough money to sign them all long term, assuming they are still worth it in two year's time.
However, if Seattle outright trades Flynn, that cap number would jump to $20.75 million, and would give them the ammunition to sign their existing free agents and draft picks while still having room to spare to make a run at a big name free agent. It would also free up a ton of money in 2014, which begins a string of seasons in which the Seahawks will have to start paying big to keep their team intact.
While I like this year's options in the draft, the WR group in free agency has a chance to be the best in years (Wes Welker, Greg Jennings, Mike Wallace, Victor Cruz (RFA), Dwayne Bowe, Danny Amendola, Danario Alexander (RFA) and Bryan Hartline). Some of those guys will be signed before hitting the market, but still, this has a chance to be as wide a field for available WRs as I've ever seen. Alexander could be a guy worth keeping an eye on if the Steelers get cute with his RFA tag- he's become an intriguing up and coming WR in recent weeks and could be a good low cost gamble.
There are some nice options on the D-line too. Henry Melton, Michael Bennett (remember him?), Randy Starks, any of them would be upgrades at DT and probably better than anyone in the draft for our 3-tech spot.
Problem is, to find the money for those players, Seattle would need to expend some contracts. Zach Miller is the most obvious option, but he's played well. Sidney Rice and Red Bryant are too valuable to risk approaching for a restructure. Really that leaves Matt Flynn, who's contract is a pain in 2013 and a problem in 2014.
And really, I think the FO designed Flynn's contract so that he'd have to earn most of his money by how he did in 2012. There is no way they signed him to be a $7-8 million a year backup for Russell Wilson.
So what value does Flynn have?
I think this question has missed the mark. It's not just about what teams will give us for Flynn, it's about what we can do with the money we'd save by trading him. If we released Flynn outright, that would probably give the team enough money to upgrade over Jason Jones with Randy Starks. That has a lot of value. The draft pick is just a bonus. And if the team trades him, they are off the hook for the $4 million remaining guaranteed money too, so it's even better.
The way the offseason is shaping up, I see 3 QBs that will likely get 1st round consideration this year, with about twice as many teams that could consider QB early (KC, OAK, AZ, JAX, BUF, NYJ). During the draft their will be a game of QB musical chairs, and when the music stops playing I suspect at least a few of those teams will make inquiries into Flynn. If Seattle gets anything in return, it's a win. If they get a 3rd or 4th round pick, it's a huge win. And frankly, I think Flynn is worth at least that much, just not to us as a backup.
Of course, if Flynn is traded than Seattle will need to find a low cost answer to replace him. Looking into the mid to late rounds of the draft could be an option (there are a couple players I think really fit JS well in that range). Pete has not shown hesitancy to start the year with an inexperienced backup, as he did in 2010 and 2011 with Whitehurst. He originally planned for Wilson to be the backup in 2012. So going into the draft for the next backup QB could be the most likely way this gets resolved.
But if Pete wants a veteran, there are options. Among them T-Jack, Vince Young, Tim Tebow (lol), Bruce Gradkowski, and- probably- Matt Hasselbeck (he'll probably be a contract casualty this offseason).
When I look at that and take it all in, then I remember how John Schneider has been so cold blooded with contracts, I think it's pretty likely that Matt Flynn will not be a Seahawk next season, and that the team will prosper from his departure- even though I truly believe he is a worthy starting QB in the National Football League.

LANCASTER, CA – August 2011 Rock and Roll legends, Blue Oyster Cult and Foghat will be opening this year's 10-day Antelope Valley Fair and Alfalfa Festival in the 134 acre Antelope Valley Fairgrounds at 2551 West Avenue H, just west of the Antelope Valley Freeway, Highway 14, this Friday, August 19. The fair itself opens at 4 p.m. with the concert, the opener for the Palmdale Auto Mall sponsored concert series starting at 7:30 p.m. in the Grandstand.
Spanning three decades, Blue Oyster Cult, originally called and recorded as Soft White Underbelly until vocalist Les Braunstein left the band in 1969, has a long and storied history. Having gotten its start in New York in the late 60s with six creative musicians featuring Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser on guitar, Albert Bouchard on drums, Bruce Abbott, Allen Lanier on keyboards, John Wiesenthal and Andrew Winters on bass, the band has seen some 25 incredible musicians come and go.
Of the originals Lanier, Al Bouchard, Abbott, Wiesenthal and Winters have also been replaced over the years. Today, the current BOC carrying the standard for the 60's band with new members include original lead vocalist Eric Bloom, Buck Dharma on guitar, Richie Castellano guitars/keyboards, Jules Radino on drums and Rudy Sarzo on bass
The first personnel change was Eric Bloom (formerly the band's acoustic engineer) who replaced Braunstein on vocals. As Lead Vocalist Eric Bloom's distinctive vocals are the personality and power that drives Blue Oyster Cult's harder-hitting songs. On stage, Bloom is a busy man… not only is he lead vocalist, he also handles both rhythm guitar and keyboards as needed. Off stage his songwriting efforts comprise some of Blue Oyster Cult's best songs.
Lead Guitarist Donald "Buck Dharma" Roeser's guitar playing is the signature sound of Blue Oyster Cult. One of the greatest guitarists of our time, Buck is the driving sonic force of Blue Öyster Cult, and continues to push his playing in new uncharted directions. A master from the beginning, he plays with an ease and grace that puts most players to shame. An extremely expressive player, Buck doesn't let any note go to waste. Each has something to say, if you're willing to listen.
Buck's talents don't stop at the humbucking pickups, either. Buck is a gifted songwriter and excellent singer. His smooth vocal style has graced the Dharma-penned hits "Don't Fear the Reaper" and "Burnin' For You". His voice contrasts and complements the sharper-edged style of lead vocalist Bloom. His songwriting juxtaposes alluring chord progressions, melodic textures and fascinating lyrical ideas with the best parts of pop music, to create songs that are definitively "Buck."
Richie Castellano entered the BOC fold in 2000 as a substitute Front of House engineer. In 2004 he stepped up to filling in on guitar and bass, but since the retirement of Allen Lanier in 2007, multi-instrumentalist Richie switched from bass over to the guitars/keyboards, both of which he's quite the master!
On stage, Richie is always on the move as a musician and vocalist. His high energy performances start from the first note of every show, and never let up until the house lights come on.
Bassist Rudy Sarzo, who joined BOC in 2008, has had quite the career, playing bass for some of the biggest music stars of the past few decades. Sarzo also adds vocals to the BOC sound. He is the sixth bassist to support the band's rhythm section with Jules Radino. Original bassist Winters left the band in 1970 and was replaced by Al Bouchard's brother Joe who held the position until September 1986.
Jon Rogers later replaced Bouchard on bass from March 1986 to 1995, when he was replaced by Greg Smith for the summer of 1995. The band for a time employed three "guest bassists" on a rotating basis: Danny Miranda, Jon Rogers and Rudy Sarzo. Rogers left in 1995, and was replaced by Danny Miranda who was on the bass rotation and guitar from August 1995 to September 2004. When Miranda again left in 2004. Castellano replaced him on guitar and keyboards until Sarzo took a more permanent stand as bassist in 2008.
Most notably the band has had quite a succession of drummers since 1981 replacing original drummer Al Bouchard. The several drummers, who unlike Spinal Tap drummers, left of their own accord and in one piece. Rick Downey, who was first hired to be Bouchard's drum tech in 1973 took over drums in 1981 until January 1985. He was followed by Jimmy Wilcox from April 1985 to September 1986. Ron Riddle came on board in July of 1987 and stayed with the BOC until May of 1991. Chuck Burgi took on the drum position from June 1991 through 1997. John Miceli and John O'Reilly filled-in off and on in 1992, 1995, and 1996. Things settled down for awhile as Bobby Rondinelli joined the band in 1997 through to September 18, 2004. Jules Radino has been the drummer for BOC since 2004 adding percussion when needed.
But personnel changes were not the only item on the agenda. The band went through several name changes before settling on Blue Oyster Cult in 1971, including Oaxaca, Stalk-Forrest Group and the Santos Sisters.
The name "Blue Oyster Cult" came from a 1960s poem written by manager Sandy Pearlman. It was part of his "Imaginos" poetry, later used more extensively in their 1988 album Imaginos. In Pearlman's poetry, the "Blue Oyster Cult" was a group of aliens who had assembled to secretly guide Earth's history. Initially, the band was not happy with the name, but settled for it, and went to work preparing to record their first release.
Due to their unique sound and diversity, Blue Oyster Cult has been very influential to many modern bands that span many genres, and are often viewed as important pioneers of several different styles of rock music that came to prominence in the 1980s and 1990s. Many heavy metal bands have cited them as a major influence as well as on many of the harder-edged, psychedelic bands in the modern jam band scene because of their intimate live shows and extended improvisations.
Blue Oyster Cult has been seen as one of the main influences by rock noir bands such as the genre originators Belladonna. Their hit songs "Godzilla" and "Don't Fear the Reaper" have been covered by a wide variety of bands. Their hit single "Don't Fear the Reaper" was featured in the famous Saturday Night Live sketch, "More Cowbell". The original recording was produced at The Record Plant in New York and produced by David Lucas who sang background vocals with Roeser and played the now famous cowbell part.
Also on the bill for Friday's Grandstand concert and opening for BOC is Foghat, who began their career in 1971 as a bunch of rather unpretentious young Brits with an affection for American blues and '50s rock 'n' roll. By the middle of the decade, they had evolved into a major touring and recording act, playing a pumped-up brand of boogie-rock to arena-size audiences. Their looks grew flashier, their sound fattened and filled out, yet the roots-rock core of the band remained ever-present under the surface.
Foghat's mid-'70s hits ("Slow Ride," "Drivin' Wheel," "Stone Blue") were not aimed at the rock purists of the world. They continued to record traditional blues and R&B material throughout their years with Bearsville Records reaffirming their love for unadulterated, primal American music on their final albums with the label.
Band members Lonesome Dave Peverett on lead vocals and guitar), Rod Price on lead guitar, Tony Stevens on bass, and Roger Earl on drums all came out of the vital, close-knit London blues scene of the '60s.
Over the years, the band went through multiple personnel changes to the extent that there were even multiple versions touring at the same time. Foghat continued to tour until early 1985, when Lonesome Dave retired to England after some 16 years on the road.
The remaining members of the evolved band – Roger Earl, Erik Cartwright and Craig MacGregor – took a brief break as well and along with Jim Robarge on Hammond B-3 & piano, reunited as The Kneetremblers. Billed as "formerly Foghat," The Kneetremblers played R&B until 1986 when Robarge left the group and was replaced by Eric "EJ" Burgeson on guitars. A few months later, The Kneetremblers, citing both fan pressure and Burgeson's knowledge of the material (Burgeson had auditioned for Rod Price's position), began touring as Foghat. This band later became commonly known as "Roger Earl's" Foghat.
Roger Earl's Foghat went through a number of players over the next few years. Craig MacGregor continued until the end of '86, when he departed to record his own music. MacGregor was replaced on bass by Erik's brother Brett Cartwright of Joan Jett's band, who stayed until 1989 and was subsequently replaced by Jeff Howell of Savoy Brown. Also departing in 1989 was Eric "EJ" Burgeson, who left to join Craig MacGregor's band. Burgeson was replaced by Phil Nudelman, who in turn left in 1990 and was replaced by Billy Davis. The final replacement was Dave Crigger, who replaced Jeff Howell on Bass in 1992.
In 1990, Lonesome Dave reactivated Foghat as "Lonesome Dave's Foghat" with new players; including guitarist Brian Bassett of Wild cherry guitarist and later Molly Hatchet, drummer Eddie Zyne of Hall and Oates, bassist Stephen Dees also from Hall and Oates and later, bassist Riff West of Molly Hatchet, hitting the U.S. club circuit once more. Lonesome Dave's Foghat also included performances by Rod Price.
The two versions of Foghat toured separately from 1990 until 1993. The original Foghat was reformed in 1993 when Tony Stevens and Rod Price rejoined, and things were patched up between Dave and Roger.
Lonesome Dave Peverett, Rod Price, Tony Stevens, and Roger Earl, the original founding band members, toured with their studio CD, "Return Of The Boogie Men" and the follow-up live CD "Road Cases" (with Bryan Basset replacing Rod Price in 1999) until Lonesome Dave's untimely death in 2000. They had returned to the basic blues/rock sound of 29 years ago. Even at their peak as hitmakers, that was the essence of the band's sound. They remained true believers at heart.

Manufacturing Stoke travels across the California coast, visiting surfing legends and new comers alike, and delves into a world rarely-ever-seen to further explore surfing's greatest paradox: no other sport is as intrinsically linked to nature and yet a majority of the materials used are environmentally toxic.
Adam Trout Traubman, Anthony Circosta, Bird HuffmanWatch Trailer
|No other sport is so intrinsically linked to nature. Some call it a spiritual experience, most call it indescribable. And yet, in becoming the multi-billion dollar industry it is today, a great paradox has risen. Surfers are indeed directly connected to the earth's pulse and yet a majority of the materials used are environmentally toxic.
The story begins in the 1960's, the golden era of surfing, a time of innocence and discovery. Surf culture erupted onto the collective consciousness and became the epitome of cool. Fast forward to December 5th, 2005 and the closing of Clark Foam for environmental reasons, the largest surf blanks manufacturer in the world. Not only was the event a wake-up call for many to shift from petroleum-base products to more eco-friendly materials, it also reframed the foundation of a stagnant culture.
Enter surfng's renaissance, an era where the new generation is completely changing what it means to be a surfer. And amid timid efforts from the industry's biggies, a plethora of grassroots up-and-comers is redefning what a surfer is supposed to ride. From wooden surfboards, handplanes and alaias to recycled blanks and organic clothing, wave riding is taking on a new soul. Taking California as its focal point, the birth place of the surf industry, the film travels from San Diego to San Francisco, via San Clemente, to capture the diversity of the Californian coast, while interviewing an amazing variety of people in their respective environments. Let it be a shaping room, an offce, a beach, a blank factory, an art gallery, or a wood shop, you will be transported to a world rarely-ever-seen.
Framed through the eyes of the youth, the documentary features for the very first time three up-and-coming surfers: Lucas Dirkse, 16, Niko Traubman 14, and Tiare Thompson, 9. From riding the unconventional and bodysurfing, to bringing back the stoke, they are now dictating what the industry will become.
Also featured are icons of the industry, including John Baker Dahl and Carl Ekstrom. From the invention of surf wax to those who created the modern board, these individuals have shaped the surfing world for the last 50 years and they now share their invaluable insights on the evolution of the industry.
Manufacturing Stoke is an introspective look into the surfing culture's struggle to be beneficial unto itself, a tapestry of both influential and eclectic members of the surfing community that are constantly striving for positive change.

|The destruction caused by the probe seemed awful slight for the number of casualties caused. It blasted a trench in the ground maybe a couple of hundred yards across - with virutally no visible blast or thermal damage to the structures on either side. I have a hard time believing that this killed millions of people, even if it went right through a couple of cities.
Future Guy claims that the Xindi were only testing their weapon design this time, and that a much more powerful version is being prepared. By doing this the Xindi have allowed Earth a chance to beef up its defences and prepare a retaliation mission. And suppose the weapon hadn't worked? Then Earth would have captured both the intact weapon and the pilot. Whereas if they had tested it on some uninhabited planet somewhere, then waited until the big version was ready to attack Earth, they would have been able to inflict far more damage.
The writers are a little cagey about the timeframe of this episode, having characters talk about it being a long trip back to Earth without being specific. It's also been a while since we got a good reference as to how far the ship is from Earth - 90 light years in "Dead Stop". But to make this episode work, we would either have to assume that the ship has been heading back towards Earth at close to top speed ever since then, or that something like a year passed offscreen as they headed back. It will be interesting to see what the next date they give us is.
|Great Moment :
|It's hard to judge this episode, since it is beginning a new story arc that may or may not turn out to be a good one. For now I'm going to nominate Connor Trinneer's performance as Trip, badly in denial about his sister's death in the attack. There was also a good deal of nice FX in this episode, including the probe attack and the battles.
|Body Count :
|Over seven million killed on earth during the attack, along with a single Xindi. The crew of Duras's Bird of Prey is also killed when it is destroyed by Enterprise.
|Factoid :
|This episode features our first look at a 22nd century Klingon bird of Prey. Enterprise also recieves a complement of photon torpedoes, the first time we have seen an Earth ship using the weapons.

So many wonderful xkcd stereotypes in this comic. There's a woman (running for president!) who outsmarts a silly man (seriously, can anyone find an example of the other way around? Not counting Mr. and Mrs. Hat; they are always prankin' each other). There's taking computers/the internet and seeing how they are act when you jam them on real life. There's just plain dumb mistakes in the art (ach, that extra long vertical line in panel two looks so fucking bad. )
How freaking lame is that dialog in the last panel. "I thought one reply was all I needed!" That's not how people talk. That's how a tree talks in a third grade production of "Our Healthy Forests" when the tree is like "I am a tree! It is bad to cut me down." Do you see what I mean? Someone who actually thought you only needed one reply wouldn't say so; he would say "lol TROLLED! bitch" or something like that. Or "FIRST!" or "HITLER believed in political parties dumass" or "if you don't like it, just stop reading it" or something smart like that.
The stupidity of the dialog (from now on i am calling it "I am a tree!" syndrome) reminded me a lot of the youtube audio preview comic. Just...bad, god.
Anyway, I think Jay has some things he'd like to say about this comic so i'ma gonna get out of his way and let him post them.
the xkcd search function sucks as hard as the comic. Perhaps if randall knew about computers he could fix it. perhaps.
i am serious: who can find a comic where a man is smarter / better / nicer / more clever / etc than a woman? I am not sure one exists but will not be reading 661 comics to prove it.

"Smug" is exactly the tone of the first few panels. It's the same "I am so much smarter than my teachers at school" tone you'll see in the forums on xkcd in general - especially on this comic. And of course, it's not like Randall is new to this smug tone regarding high school in general. If they are having a "who can imitate Holden Caulfield the best" contest, they are all winning.
(though I do appreciate the fact that this comic is leading people to say things like "This comic is funny because it is funny" because that is exactly how inane they always sound! )
Anyway, like most I-am-superior-to-everyone-who-has-authority-over-me screeds, this one has to bend the truth quite hard. Basically, Randall is stacking the deck in his own favor. Honor societies are not for people who are "honorable," they are for people who get good grades. You join them to show colleges that you are smart. Perhaps that's a bit redundant if colleges are going to see your grades directly, but that's a different question. I tried to get into an honor society in high school, and failed, but not because I am dishonorable; that was not a consideration. It was because my grades weren't good enough (I am a pretty dumb guy). That's all! Does Randall really not know this? More importantly, does Randall really think the Anonymous Administrator in panel 1 wouldn't know this? Of course not. But he has to ignore it if the character is going to get to make his biting and sarcastic comment in panel 2.
That clever boy. He sure showed the administration! He sure saw through all that bullshit. they are all a bunch of phonies anyway, huh? And look at all the effort he goes to to mock them, starting his own club. See, he's not lazy, he's just putting effort into subversive rebellious things like school groups. The girls should be flocking to him any second now!
Also, jokes about "If x people join this facebook group" ? Those were what, 2007? Nice.
I can't help but enjoy the final line of today's Natalie Dee, especially given that the two authors are not fans of each other.

James Franco is involved with three movies that premiered at the Sundance Film Festival last week.
Though his role in the films are different, each are connected by their themes: sex, porn and bondage.
He's co-directing and has a featured role in "Interior. Leather Bar.", a film that reimagines segments cut from the iconic gay film "Cruising." He also produced "kink," a documentary about Kink.com, which the leading producer of bondage-and discipline porn.
In addition, he plays Hugh Hefner in "Lovelace," the biopic about porn superstar Linda Lovelace starring Amanda Seyfried.
For "Interior. Leather Bar.", the controversial, hour-long film that evokes the notorious 1980 thriller, Franco once more immerses himself in gay culture. He has had featured roles in "Milk," "Howl" and, most recently, starred as gay poet Hart Crane in the yet released "The Broken Tower." Because of his numerous gay roles, gay rumors have swirled around him for years. When asked by MTV about them recently, he said he's not bothered by them.
"In high school these girls got mad at me and so they spread this rumor that I was having a gay relationship with one of my closest friends," he told MTV News. "And they even made up a little dance they would do in the girl's locker room about me being gay. I still don't know what the dance was."
This may explain why the 34-year-old Hollywood cutie hasn't shied away from portraying Allen Ginsberg in "Howl" or Scott Smith, the boyfriend of Harvey Milk, in "Milk."
Franco also told MTV that hearing gay rumors now isn't "anything new."
"And in fact, it wasn't something that frightened me, like if people think that, it's fine. I really don't care," he added.
Franco, who will also star as "Playboy" founder Hugh Hefner in an upcoming biopic about 70s porn star Linda Lovelace, also said that people should not be ashamed of their sexual orientation.
"It's hard to put certain kinds of sex in film," Franco told MTV. "Now, I could sort of understand that if it wasn't so easy to put other kinds of things in film, like violence. Obviously, there's some weird standard here that is just illogical."
"Sex and sexuality are such big parts of our lives - the ways that we define ourselves, the ways that we interact with each other," he continued. "Everyone thinks about it. Everyone knows about it. Even if you insist on living an incredibly chaste life and you're chaste in your thoughts, that's a conscious and concerted effort to keep sex from your thoughts. So you're still engaging with sex even if it's in a negative capacity. It's a huge part of our lives. It's part of being human."

You know how I like my kitchen appliances? How sad and lost I am when they break? Unfortunately I have another one to add to the graveyard collection.
Yes, another one.
And this one will require a bit more research to replace and upgrade. Luckily I have my culinary school instructors to offer advice (and maybe a discount!).
As you may have noticed, I've moved past the bread machine for my challah and onto the KitchenAid mixer. Just one attempt at the really old-fashioned way was enough (un œuf!) to remind me how much I rely on my tools.
Until they become unreliable.
My fourth challah recipe, this time an Israeli one from Janna Gur, pushed my mixer over the edge. Literally.
The sweet egg-y dough had been kneading in my mixer for about 7 minutes continuously when I heard a strange clunking. A loud whir. A grumble. I jumped from my perch on the couch to investigate the commotion. I made it to the kitchen in time to see the arm of the mixer flapping over the bowl as the kneading hook turned.
And then.
And then the mixer – bowl, dough, flapping arm and turning hook – took a few hops on the counter before diving to the floor.
I am not joking.
The bowl stayed miraculously locked to the base. The dough securely cradled inside.
The arm was nice and warm. Really warm. Too warm.
I kneaded the rest by hand.
I am not quite ready to share the challah recipe that led to my mixer's demise because I haven't worked out all the kinks. However, I did want to pass along a "braiding" technique that makes really unique challot.
Halot à la "danoise"
I discovered this braiding technique from Anne Sfez, who writes the bilingual French-English blog a foodie froggy in Paris.
Rather than braiding the loaves like you might braid your hair, she shapes challah like a danish. Anne has a great pictorial that is very easy to follow – you should check it out. But if you like unnecessarily wordy, here are my directions.
Roll. After it has risen, roll the dough into a rectangle. The size of the rectangle is up to you, but I usually make one dimension twice the length of the other.
Cut. You're going to make evenly spaced diagonal cuts on both sides of the dough – the dough will then look like a feather. The trick to this is getting all of your cuts at the same angle and symmetrical. Mentally divide the rectangle lengthwise into thirds. Place a ruler one-third of the way from the right side (or the left side if you cut left-handed). Make a series of parallel diagonal cuts down the right side, using the ruler as a guide, and cutting towards you. I use a big chefs knife or dough scraper so I can make each cut in a single swipe and keep my wrist at the same angle. I usually leave 1-inch or so between cuts.
Flip.When you're done with the first side, flip the dough over so the cuts are now on the left and facing you. Use a little extra flour if you need to. This is a full flip, not a 180-degree turn (which would leave the cuts also on the left, but facing away from you).
Cut again. Line up your ruler again, one-third from the right side of the dough. Using the ruler as a guide, make diagonal cuts with your right hand. Make sure that each cut starts directly across from its pair. When you finish, you should have a symmetrical feather.
Fold. Starting at the top (the point of the arrow), fold the first flap towards the center, then fold the opposite flap towards the center and over the first. Repeat this right-left-right-left (or left-right-left-right) until you reach the bottom of the feather. You'll be left with a little trapezoid/triangle. Pull it off and make a challah roll with it. This makes it easier to tuck the last few edges underneath the end of the loaf.
Rise and bake.

How do I place a bid?

Can I cancel a bid?
By placing a bid, you are committing to buy the item at the maximum price you specify. Whilst we ask that you only place a bid once you are sure, you can cancel a bid if necessary, before the auction ends, by going to the My Auctions section of the My Account page. Find the bid you want to cancel and click Cancel in the Action column. Bids can not be cancelled after the auction ends.
What are the minimum and maximum amounts I can bid?
Bidders can outbid the current highest bidder by as little as £5 (€6.50, $6.50, AUD$9, SGD$9.50) up to a maximum of £2,000 (€2,600, $2,600, AUD$3,600, SGD$3,800). The amount you enter is the amount you will pay if you are successful. There is no automatic bidding up to your maximum amount.

If you are the highest bidder and wish to increase your maximum bid, you should cancel the original bid by following the steps above and place a new bid for the higher amount.
