J.D. Krill is a 6-6, 245-pound tight end from Mission Viejo, California. Krill played two seasons of junior-college football at Saddleback Community College in Mission Viejo.

He caught 10 passes for 98 yards and one touchdown as a sophomore in 2012. As a freshman in 2011, Krill had five receptions for 42 yards and one touchdown. Krill played his high school football at Aliso Niguel High in Mission Viejo. Krill was also recruited by Connecticut, Ole Miss and Texas State.
Jeff Lark, a 6-2, 220-pound junior-college linebacker from Arizona Western Community College in Yuma, Arizona, is joining the Cowboy Football program at the start of the 2013 spring semester. Lark is ranked by 247Sports.com recruiting website as the 17th best JC outside linebacker in the nation, and gives Lark a three-star rating. He played one season at Arizona Western in 2012, after redshirting his first season of 2011. He will have three years of eligibility at Wyoming. In 2012, Lark was credited with 62 tackles, 3.0 sacks, 5.0 tackles for loss, forced two fumbles and intercepted one pass, which he returned for a touchdown. Arizona Western posted an 8-2 record, including a 42-37 win over Nassau Community College of New York in the El Toro Bowl in Yuma, AZ. Lark is originally from Cedar Hill, Texas, where he played at Cedar Hill High School. After high school, he played one year at Cushing Academy in Ashburnham, Massachusetts. At Cushing Academy, he recorded 57 tackles, 6.0 sacks and had 12 passes broken up, playing safety and cornerback. He was also recruited by Texas A&M.
Omar Stover comes to Wyoming from Boling Brook High School in Boling Brook, Illinois.

Stover also earned All-Area honors his senior season. He rushed for 1,012 yards and 12 touchdowns as a senior, while leading Boling Brook to a 7-4 record and the second round of the state playoffs. As a junior in 2011, he started on a Boling Brook team that captured the State Championship with a 13-1 record. Stover was also recruited by Bowling Green, Ole Miss and Western Michigan.
The signing period for mid-year, junior-college transfers ran through January 15, 2013. Mid-year high-school transfers sign scholarship offers, rather than national letters of intent, and are announced once they are officially enrolled at a university.

Stuff Albuquerque Needs
I love the not-summer. It's 70-some degrees, sunny, with tiny little rain showers to cool us down. Thank you, Albuquerque.
But is Albuquerque all she can be? I think not, but let us not blame our fair Duchess (Albuquerque is definitely a woman, but that's another blog). We have a responsibility to contribute to the awesome-ification of Dona Burque. Consider, then, these suggestions:
1. More miniature golf. There are only three places to partake in my second-favorite diminutive version of sports: Putt-Putt, Golfernoggins, and Hinkle. Putt-Putt and Hinkle are boring, as there are no windmills or pirate ships or caves or anything. Just holes. And Golfernoggins scares the crap out of me, largely because its logo consists of a animated golfball, and I hate it when inanimate objects have eyes. Why are we, a place with much-touted perfect weather, not home to the best miniature golf courses in the world? How hard is it? Is it themes? Here's some: Red-Light Districts of the World, Communist Rulers, Star Warz (with a Z to avoid lawsuits). I just made all of those up. See?
2. Doughnuts. Holy shit, I love doughnuts. You know who else loves doughnuts? Everybody. Marketing solved. Unfortunately, there's only Dunkin Donuts, which tastes like candles. This is retarded.
3. Dive bars that don't show sports that I'm not afraid to go into. Many cities have what I'll call your middling dive bars: not swanky, but that rate low on the shanking-probability scale. Yes, we have some. Like three, right? So everyone goes to those three, which sucks because one of the biggest reasons to go to a divey bar is to get drunk anonymously, which is hard when you run into co-workers, former lovers, and Marty Chavez.
4. Russians. None of our signs are in Cyrillic. That's bullshit.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – In conjunction with its home doubleheader against WPI on Saturday, April 21, the MIT softball team will hold the program's inaugural alumnae day event. The event will celebrate the 35th anniversary of the establishment of the softball program at MIT. Alumnae, parents and fans are invited to join us in Cambridge for this exciting occasion.
The day's festivities will include a ceremony, in between games of the doubleheader, recognizing those alumnae that were instrumental in the founding of the program. Friends of the program are also invited to a banquet on Saturday evening.
The weekend kicks off with a gathering at a local pub with the MIT coaching staff on Friday evening. Saturday morning starts with coffee and a campus tour prior to the first pitch of the doubleheader against WPI, which comes at 12:00 p.m. Following the games, a banquet will be held at the MIT Alumni Center to honor past and present members of the MIT softball program.
Head Coach Jennifer Williams expressed her enthusiasm for the event, "We are very excited to be organizing the program's first ever anniversary celebration, as well as MIT softball's first major alumnae event," she said. "We plan to make the weekend memorable for all alumnae and current players, and hope to share the progress and excitement of our team as we continue to prepare for higher levels of competition. We are looking forward to honoring the alumnae, and showing our appreciation for all they have brought to MIT softball."

Never, in the 51 years since she was born, have I been happier for my kid sister.
Her name is Meg. She's a proud, loving mother, an extremely talented nurse and a devoted daughter who cared around the clock for my father before he died of cancer almost eight years ago, and for my mother before she succumbed to complications from Alzheimer's disease three years later.
Meg is also a lesbian. And so, as I pored over the U.S. Supreme Court's smackdown of the Defense of Marriage Act on Wednesday, my thoughts centered not so much on the legal intricacies of Justice Anthony Kennedy's majority ruling or Justice Antonin Scalia's scathing dissent.
Rather, I thought about my sister, our parents and a family saga that in many ways mirrors the societal ebbs and flows that led to this week's judicial sea change.
Meg was still in her teens when she fell in love with Linda. They met in high school, lived together as college roommates and stayed together after graduation until, one day, a friend's slip of the tongue revealed to my parents that this was far more than a platonic friendship.
This was true love. Yet to my parents, products of both their time and their devout Roman Catholic upbringings, it was a crisis of the highest order.
Unknown at the time to me or Meg's five other siblings, they told Meg she had to make a choice: Linda or her family.
Meg, heartbroken, chose her family. And life, however painfully, went on.
Meg met and married a good man, gave birth to two beautiful daughters and did her best to live within a mold that, despite her best efforts, simply didn't fit.
If she was bitter, she never showed it.
If she and my parents ever spoke another word about her sexual orientation, the rest of us never heard about it.
And if there was ever any question that she could still love her mother and father despite that long-ago ultimatum, it was dispelled by her heroic efforts to keep them comfortable and pain-free in the final months of their lives.
Then everything changed.
With Dad and Mom gone, Meg no longer needed their approval.
With her marriage already strained by then to the breaking point, she and her husband finally decided to wish each other well and move on.
And in one of those breathtaking twists of fate, Meg and Linda one day found themselves living, purely by coincidence, in the same suburban Boston community. They hadn't seen each other in … how long?
"Twenty years," Meg replied over her cellphone Wednesday evening, recalling with a chuckle how in her first, trembling attempt to reconnect, she actually left both her first and last name on Linda's answering machine. (Linda heard only "Meg" and all but dropped the phone.)
They've been together for several years now. Linda has become a beloved member of the family and, much as we all consider her a full-fledged sister-in-law, the decision on whether or when to formally marry remains theirs and theirs alone.
More importantly, never in her life have I seen my sister filled with more joy.
Which brings us back to this week's court ruling.
Reflecting on the case that gave rise to the court's rejection of the Defense of Marriage Act as unconstitutional, Justice Kennedy wrote that New York's equal-rights statute "reflects both the community's considered perspective on the historical roots of the institution of marriage and its evolving understanding of the meaning of equality."
It was the last half of that sentence that caught my eye.
Yes, this federal case was about marriage. But it was also about something much more profound than who qualifies (or not) for spousal Social Security benefits, inheritance rights and the host of other marital allowances embedded in more than 1,000 federal statutes and regulations.
It was about human dignity.
It was about the quintessentially American notion of fairness.
It was about equality. Or more specifically, as Kennedy so succinctly observed, the inescapable fact that "DOMA writes inequality into the entire United States Code."
Kennedy went on to note, "The history of DOMA's enactment and its own text demonstrate that interference with the equal dignity of same-sex marriages, a dignity conferred by the States in exercise of their sovereign power, was more than just an incidental effect of the federal statute. It was its essence."
In other words, the federal law, by its very existence, sought not to protect, but to punish.
Meg, who spent a typically hectic Wednesday caring for a steady stream of hospital patients, hadn't had a lot of time to read about the court's ruling, let alone reflect on it.
But as she made her way home with her older brother yakking her ear off, the impact of what had just happened began to sink in:
Without a doubt, to be gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgendered remains a daunting challenge in too many states, too many communities, too many families.
Yet our highest court, as only it can do, has unequivocally and forever changed the course of this nation: No, you need not embrace your gay and lesbian brothers and sisters if your conscience or religious faith still won't let you. But accept them you must.
"Everybody's been hurt," Meg said, reflecting as much on the country's experience as her own. "At one point or another, everyone's been hurt. And I hope this helps diminish all that hurt. It has to just stop!"
It already has for Meg, who came to realize that she could have it all – Linda, two perfect daughters who adore her as much as she does them, an extended family that could no sooner reject one of its own than hold one of our frequent reunions on the moon.
I suspect my dear parents, God rest their souls, knew that all along. No matter what happened, Meg would always be loved.
And tempting as it may be to wonder how Mom and Dad might feel about the U.S. Supreme Court right about now, I'll defer to my little sister on what this week's commotion, when it's all said and done, truly means.
"Love always wins," Meg said. "It always does."

Filipino troops kill rebels who attacked oil truck
MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Philippine troops killed eight breakaway Muslim rebels who attacked an oil tanker truck and placed bombs along a highway, forcing its closure for several hours, as sporadic clashes raged Tuesday in a restive southern province.
The driver of the oil truck prevented a disaster by speeding away from dozens of gunmen belonging to the Bangsamoro Islamic Liberation Movement toward an army outpost in Maguindanao province's Guindolongan town, regional military spokesman Col. Dickson Hermoso said.
The driver was slightly wounded in the head. Gunfire damaged the truck's windshield and some of its tires, as well as another cargo truck behind the oil tanker.
Army troops closed the highway for several hours as they defused two bombs and clashed with the insurgents, killing eight, in running gunbattles that spilled into nearby towns, he said.
The breakaway rebels have launched attacks in recent weeks in Maguindanao, a mountainous marshland about 900 kilometers (560 miles) southeast of Manila, to try to sabotage peace talks between the government and the main insurgent group, the 11,000-strong Moro Islamic Liberation Front. The talks, which have been brokered by Malaysia, have made progress toward a new autonomy deal for minority Muslims in the south of the largely Roman Catholic Philippines.
The rebel faction, which has about 200 armed fighters, has said the talks will go nowhere and vowed to continue fighting for a separate Muslim homeland in the south.
"They've been left out so they're trying to make a scene," Hermoso said. "But the problem is they're turning to innocent people because they could not face us."
Suspected members of the rebel faction detonated a bomb made of two 60mm mortar rounds but failed to destroy a concrete bridge that serves as an entryway to Datu Piang town near Guindolongan late Sunday, the military said.
On Monday, another group of breakaway rebels fired on a government militia outpost in Midsayap town in nearby North Cotabato province, setting of a clash with troops. The guerrillas fled, taking several water buffalos and two motorcycles along the way. They shot and killed a farmer who refused to hand over his buffalo, the military said.
While large numbers of troops and police have been deployed to secure the highway and communities at risk in Maguindanao, the military has limited its response during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. Still, government forces have been on continuous alert and are ready to quell any trouble, Hermoso said.
There have been fears that the attacks, including bombings, could escalate after Ramadan.
The emergence of the splinter rebel group complicates efforts to end the Muslim unrest, which has long set back progress in southern Philippine regions awash with weapons and beset by poverty, weak governance and neglect.

Your Guide To Shopping For Produce
Find out what produce you should definitely buy organic, and what is okay to buy conventionally
It seems to be getting harder and harder to know what is being sold to us at the grocery store. We know that the beautiful, shiny produce is the most affordable but probably contains the highest amounts of wax, pesticides and other chemicals. However, organic can be a bit pricey and possibly unavailable, depending on where you have access to shop.
Did you know that the USDA found a total of 178 different pesticides and pesticide breakdown products on the thousands of produce samples it analyzed? The pesticides persisted on fruits and vegetables even when they were washed and, in some cases, peeled.
See what happens when you pour hot water on conventional apples. The chemicals literally melt! It's important that we buy organic and if we cannot, at least wash our produce prior to consuming (Video: Laurline Eldemire Lawrence via Facebook):
Check out the most recent list of produce that you should preferably buy organic, known as the 'Dirty Dozen,' and which produce is safe to purchase conventionally, known as the 'Clean Fifteen.' While you may not find every produce item you like to eat on these lists, this is a great start!

Drink Your Way to Fat Loss
Let's start with water and its importance to fat loss……notice I say "Fat Loss" because I view it differently than "weight loss". Eliminate carbohydrates, fast, go on a juice diet, detox, cleanse or drink some sort of weight loss shake and inevitably you will lose weight. However, you generally will gain it back…and if you are super unlucky…plus some!
On average, I would say that prior to my lifestyle change, I was lucky to finish a bottle of water a day. I didn't think about drinking and I consumed most of my liquids in the form of tea or coffee during the day as I was never a soda drinker.
If you want to lose FAT, here are a few reasons water is so important to your success.
1. Appetite Control – Water is an appetite suppressant which means that drinking enough of it ensures that when you do feel hungry you really need something to eat. Drinking a lot of water helps to keep hunger at bay!
2. Toxins – Water clears toxins and helps fats pass through your system before they can be stored. Water helps any substance your body doesn't need exit safely and aids in transporting the necessary nutrients throughout your body.
3. Kidney function – The kidneys require water to carry out their duty of processing waste products efficiently. When the kidneys don't have enough water, the liver comes to aid. Part of the liver's responsibilities is to take your stored fat and turn it into energy you can use. Therefore, by not drinking enough water you are slowing down the speed at which the liver can do it's work. Drink more water and let the liver turn your FAT into ENERGY!
FIT TIP-Drink 8 oz or 1 glass of water every hour at work. One 8 hour shift meets the average daily requirement of 8 glasses (64 oz) a day.
4. Hormones – As you start to cut the amount of food you are taking in as most people do when they are trying to lose weight the body senses this lack of calories. From an evolutionary perspective, whenever there was a lack of food there was also a lack of water. By consuming enough water, you tell the body there is "No Emergency" and that it is safe to let go of the fat rather than hoard it.
5. Hydrated Muscles – Muscles that are hydrated are stronger which leads to better workouts, more muscle growth and ultimately increases your metabolism. Muscles burn more calories just by their mere existence!

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Noel Hollingsworth scored a career-high 34 while freshman Mitchell Kates added eight assists as MIT downed Lesley, 88-61, in non-conference men's basketball action on Saturday afternoon. Hollingsworth also collected 10 rebounds to secure his seventh double-double of the campaign and help the Cardinal and Gray finish the first semester a perfect 11-0. Jesus Trejo led the way for the Lynx (3-8) with 15 points and 10 boards.
The teams traded buckets early, as Trejo tied things up at four with 16:30 to in the opening half. The up and down pace would become a bit erratic as the teams then went more than two minutes without scoring. Hollingsworth converted on a pass from Kates at the 14:25 mark, starting an 11-0 run over the next 2:46 to give the Engineers a lead they would not relinquish. Freshman Jimmy Burke hit a pair of trifectas during the spurt. A pair of free throws by Will Tashman sent MIT into the break with a 43-27 advantage.
After trailing by as many as 20 early in the second, Jermaine Harris' three-pointer with 10:06 to go brought Lesley to within 13, at 63-50. That was as close as the visitors would get the rest of the way, as the Cardinal and Gray responded with an 18-2 run to put the game out of reach. Hollingsworth picked up 10 of his 34 during that stretch, as MIT was able to break the Lesley full-court press for a few easy buckets.
Billy Bender contributed 12 points and a season-high 11 rebounds. Tashman had another solid outing totaling nine points and 12 caroms while senior co-captain Billy Johnson scored 14. The Engineers held a 49-29 edge on the boards and picked up 15 second-chance points.
Bryant Itonyo, 14 points, and Harris, 11 points, joined Trejo in double-figures for the Lynx.
MIT will now be off for the next two weeks, returning on December 28 to take on Division I foe, Harvard. The two Cambridge neighbors have squared off 10 times, but not since 1985, with the Crimson owning a 9-1 advantage over their cross-town rivals. The game on the 28th is at Harvard and begins at 4:00 p.m. Lesley does not play again until January 9, as it begins New England Collegiate Conference (NECC) play, hosting Daniel Webster at 2:00 p.m.

Although the current recession might have given many of the big names in AV quite a battering over the past 18 months, one name at least seems to have not only survived relatively unscathed but actually potentially benefited from the hard times: Freesat.
The BBC/ITV-led, free-to-air satellite broadcasting system, complete with a couple of HD channels, has attracted people to its service far faster than the vast majority of industry analysts – and us, to be honest – ever predicted.
The latest figures show a viewer base of 600,000 households as of September 2009, with a 50 per cent growth occurring in the quarter leading up to the release of that figure.
At the same time, Sky has for once struggled to meet its latest subscriber target, limping towards its desire for 10 million subscribers by the end of the year (and probably failing to reach it), rather than charging over the target line with months to spare as it often has before.
These facts, together with anecdotal evidence from many of our own friends and relatives, leads us to suspect that as the recession has bitten harder, more and more people have ditched Sky's subscription service in favour of the subs-free Freesat offering. Especially as they can use their existing Sky dish to get it.
All of which suggests that Sony's timing with its 40-inch KDL-40Z5800 couldn't be better. For this model is the very first TV from Sony to feature a built-in Freesat HD tuner, following in the footsteps of numerous Freesat models from Panasonic and a couple of models from LG.
Actually, we're kind of surprised that the 40Z5800 didn't arrive in the UK sooner.
After all, Panasonic has been making Freesat TVs for well over a year now, while LG's F7700 models came out as far back as March.
Panasonic had an initial exclusive deal with Freesat that explains some of the delay in Sony getting its Freesat finger out, but we can only hope that the time it's taken since Panasonic's deal ran out around the turn of the year is down to Sony wanting to make sure that its Freesat debut is something a bit special.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Whisper it quietly but a beast might be stirring at Flushing Meadows.
Milos Raonic is the sleeper of the U.S. Open. Touted as a leading member of Generation Next in men's tennis, the powerful 22-year-old Canadian roared into the fourth round on Saturday with a 6-7(4) 6-4 6-3 6-4 win over Spain's Feliciano Lopez.
Raonic's thunderous serve has landed him a chart-topping 65 aces for the tournament. His heaviest delivery of 145 miles per hour is the quickest of the event.
His relatively seamless progression through the draw comes on the back of his recent appearance in the final of the Montreal Masters against Rafa Nadal and a move up to number 11 in the world rankings.
While the American tennis fraternity sweats on the arrival of a men's player to match the deeds of retired superstars Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi, the relaxed and quietly-spoken Raonic admitted he benefitted from lower expectations in Canada.
"There's a lot more pressure on the Americans," he said.
"One advantage they have growing up is that maybe there are more wildcard opportunities as an American.
"I'm doing a lot of stuff in uncharted territories, so people are very supportive of it. Whereas I feel it's a little bit unfair to the American players, everybody expecting another Pete and Agassi to be there on the top.
"Everybody is always asking, why isn't their playing doing this? This is an American. I think that's the big difference."
Ranoic, though, denied he was flying completely under the radar compared to his U.S. counterparts.
"I think the attention is the same," he said. "I don't know how to say it, but one is more negative than the other because they (Americans) are expecting a lot more. In Canada, it's a lot more positive to be in the situation I am right now."
Lopez was unable to break the serve of his 1.96 m tall opponent in their two hours and 37 minutes on Court 17.
"I was really struggling with getting anywhere on his service games, but I found my own a little bit," Raonic said.
"I was getting confidence and calming down. I wasn't feeling as nervous about the whole situation. I was a little sloppy at the net at times, but I started cleaning things up from the baseline."
Montenegro-born, Toronto-raised and now resident in Monaco, Raonic's biggest concern appeared to be his sunburned face.
"I didn't have any (sun tan lotion) on, so I will probably pay for that tonight," he said.
Raonic has yet to reach the quarter-finals at a major.
His next assignment will be against eight-seeded Frenchman Richard Gasquet, who reached the fourth round when 32nd-seeded Russian Dmitry Tursunov retired.
The winner of the Raonic-Gasquet clash will have a winnable quarter-final against Spain's David Ferrer or Serbian Janko Tipsarevic.
In his only previous meeting against Gasquet, on hard courts at Cincinnati last year, Raonic won in straight sets.
"I'm going to have to focus a lot on myself and not let him get into a rhythm," he said.
"I thought I did that pretty well today. Always when I had a short ball, I would go for it, even on the backhand side. I have to let them never get into a rhythm."

Mining group Rio Tinto is targeting $7bn (£4.37bn) in cost cuts and savings by the end of 2014 as a decline in global demand and lower commodity prices eat into the profits of mining firms.
The demand for commodities is expected to decline further due to the ongoing economic problems in the US and Europe and a slowdown in Chinese economy.
"We are taking further tough action to roll back the unsustainable cost increases of the past few years and are maintaining a relentless focus on improving productivity," said Rio Tinto CEO Tom Albanese.
The world's second-biggest mining group expects to save more than $5bn of operating and support costs by the end of 2014. It will also reduce the planned spending on exploration and evaluation projects by $1bn over the remainder of 2012 and 2013.
Additionally, sustaining capital expenditure will be reduced by more than $1bn in 2013.
While the US and Europe, being the world's largest commodity markets, have experienced a slowdown in their economic growth, China's rapid economic growth over the past few years has helped miners like Rio Tinto.
Demand from China, which currently accounts for about 60 percent of global imports of iron ore, has been crucial for mining companies in the past.
Nevertheless, the recent slowdown in China, hitting a three-year low in the July to September quarter, raised concerns of a further decline in demand and lower commodity prices.
The mining giant said it expects a recovery in China in the near future, with GDP growing more than 8 percent in 2013.
The company expects steel demand from China to peak at about 1 billion tonnes by 2030. Rio is expanding the capacity at its Pilbara operations to 290 million tonnes a year in order to meet the demand, and the project is due for completion in the fourth quarter of 2013.
"I'm cautiously optimistic about the fact that we're beginning to see green shoots in China," lbanese said.
"We are investing in the highest returning opportunities, delivering major projects on time and are taking advantage of the inbuilt flexibility in our phased investment programmes," he added.
Other miners, including BHP Billiton, are also adopting cost-cutting measures, such as reducing the workforce, stalling big developments and closing offices.
Finding no improvement in iron ore and steel making coal prices in the near term, BHP has in 2012 closed two Australian coking coal mines and shelved or postponed billions of dollars in proposed projects such as the Olympic Dam copper-and-uranium expansion.

Sri Lankan soldiers accused of pre-election attack
JAFFNA, Sri Lanka (AP) — An election monitor says Sri Lankan soldiers armed with clubs attacked supporters of an ethnic Tamil candidate in this weekend's provincial elections in the country's former war zone, wounding eight people.
Keerthi Tennakoon of the Campaign for Free and Fair Elections says the army soldiers entered Ananthi Sasitharan's house late Thursday and attacked her supporters. The candidate escaped unharmed.
Military spokesman Brig. Ruwan Wanigasooriya denied that soldiers took part in an attack.
Sasitharan, the wife of a former Tamil Tiger rebel leader, recently angered the government by meeting with the visiting United Nations human rights chief to complain that she has not heard from her husband since he surrendered to the army in the final stage of the country's civil war in 2009.

Real Housewives of New York: She's Broke, Don't Fix It
[There was a video here]
Last night was the first time in recent memory that the Real Butthumblers of New York was about actual financial bankruptcy and not bankruptcy of the spiritual or moral variety. There was some of that too, but, you know, there was some real poverty too. Oh, and everyone had lots of nasty sex.
Before we can get to little matchstick girl Sonja, standing out in front of Port Authority in a tattered dress and sullied makeup trying to sell handies to tourists for $5 a pop ("And boy, can I make it pop!") we have to discuss some non-transactional sexual encounters. Since the ladies just got back from terrorizing northern Africa last week, they are all really, really horny to have sex with their husbands (but as Simon noticed, maybe a little cattily, but oh so accurately, that there "aren't a lot of husbands left"). So, Ramona is in her finest lingerie and sprinkling rose petals all over the bed and putting on her "Romance Mix" with lots of Sade and Anita Baker and popping open some champagne and pouring a little GHB in it, because Mario really likes to be completely incapacitated when they have sex. Yes, it's time for rip-roaring intercourse with her husband, with the cameras there to capture their very intimate moments.
Of course this is the moment when Ramona thinks to bring up her gypsy fortune teller from Morocco that said Mario was thinking about another women. He looks dead for a minute and you could see his inside voice going, "Fuck, fuck, think of an answer, fuck!" and then he said, "Well, um, maybe it was Avery. That must be it." That was the answer Ramona wanted to hear and all of her confidence in the strength of their bond returned, then Mario excused himself for a minute and went to the bathroom. He fired off a quick text to someone listed in his phone as "Good Non-Sexual Buddy Marion" that said, "She knows! Be careful..." and just as he was hitting send, the GHB started to kick in and his limbs got heavy and his knees buckled beneath him liked he'd just spent the last decade dancing continuously and he couldn't twitch one more muscle fiber. But he got himself together and stumbled for a chair. Ramona ripped his shirt off and started rubbing oil all over his body. She squeezed his neck and wrenched his limbs as they creaked and popped like a rusty ratchet. She cupped his chest in her hands, pumping the muscle in circles, plumping up the breast of the man she loved. "Oooh, those pecs!" she moaned, hiking up her nightie just a little bit and straddling his tented lap. As she leaned in to kiss his lips and rub her satiny surface over his oiled chest she looked at the camera and said, "What the fuck are you guys still doing here? You wanna make a sex tape or something?"
Meanwhile in Brooklyn, Alex and Simon are about to embark on some love making of their own. They start in the kitchen, with the kind of long kisses and ass slapping that long married couples often enjoy right before an evening of rutting. Things, as they often do on RealHousewivesPlatz, escalate quickly. Next thing you know they're eating oysters and Simon is popping that last dusty Cialis from the medicine cabinet that he's been saving for a special occasion. Then he says, "Oh, sweetie, I have a present for you!" It's a basket of panties. While buying frilly things for a loved one is always a nice gift, there's something about "basket" and "panties" that just doesn't sound right going together. Can't we call it a "bushel" of panties? A "parcel" of panties? Maybe a "pride?"
Alex embarks on putting on a half-naked fashion show for Simon, who enjoys nothing more than watching his wife model clothes (you should see the things he did to the mannequins when he worked at Harris Scarfe as a teenager in Australia). She comes out in this white lacy nightgown. "You know what I want to play now?" Alex nods yes with a naughty smile on her face and collapses on the floor. Simon walks by pretending he's finding her in the gutter.
"Oh, ma'am. What are you doing here collapsed on the heath? What is your name?"
"I, I...don't seem to remember."
"Alex, darling, that's not the line. You're supposed to say. 'Where am I? Who are you? What's happening to me?'"
"Simon, it's been so long since I've read the Woman in White, you can't expect me to remember how it goes verbatim."
Wow, those two are into some really kinky shit! After Alex takes care of Simon's wee Wilkie Collins, we see Zombie Cindy with the love of her life, Howie, her zombie brother. After they feast on her assistant's brains (she goes through assistants like Simon goes through tissues working his way through the lesser novels of Victorian literature), she shows him the pictures Jill sent her of Morocco. But there's one thing missing: Cindy. Is it because zombies, like vampires or the X-Men after they traveled through the Seige Perilous, don't show up on any sort of electronic media? No, it's because Sonja edited Cindy out of all the pictures to get back at her for their fight in the souk. Oh, Sonja, you are the love of my life.
But Sonja is having a tough time of it. We found out while she's at an appointment with her dermatologist, an older, wealthy man that Sonja met in her trampoline class. Of course Sonja takes a trampoline class. Actually, she has a very busy Tuesday. After kicking her "butler" out of bed early in the morning, she has to go to strip aerobics at the local Equinox, then for her knee sanding appointment to get rid of the callouses, then off for her bra and matching diaphragm fitting, and then it's time for trampoline class followed by a light dinner of three Tic-Tacs followed more buttling with the butler. The point is Sonja is a slut, but she is a poor slut.
Yes, Sonja is bankrupt and is $19 million dollars in debt. The whole thing is a strange affair that never gets completely explained by has something to do with John Travolta and a movie she made and a judgment placed upon her by a judge and some bad judgments she made by herself with her own head. But I feel bad for Sonja, I really do. It seems like she's fallen on some bad luck rather an running up some giant tab on an onyx mansion she could never afford like some of the other Housewives. If I sympathize with any of the Housewives its Sonja, with her gregarious, outgoing, and slutty nature that is all openness, but it's meant to hide how closed off and private she really is. Sonja will talk all about her dildo collection, but she would never dare open up about something as gouche as money, religion, or (ew!) feelings.
All the ladies know about it because there's a big newspaper article (I'm so glad that this franchise of the Housewives, unlike some of the others, realizes that these women are now celebrities that operate in a larger world and can speak to that existence rather than trying to hide it and make it seem like this is something that never happened or only happened on the show). Sonja, of course, just wants to make her little hand fitz and be like "Pshaw! It's nothing. It's some silly little thing that I'm going to get out of, and it's really no big deal. I don't even know what's happening, that's what the lawyers are for, ha ha ha. I'm so stupid!" Sonja may be a little silly, but she's not stupid. She knows exactly what's happening, she's probably been thinking about it day in and day out for weeks, crying about it in the shower so that no one will see her streaky face, and then getting out and putting on her makeup, solidifying her mask of whimsy to meet the world.
So, when she gets together with all the girls at Jill's Jill Zarin's Zarin Squeeze Couture for Real Women By Real Women Inc. (or JZZSCRWBRWI for short) bitch session, she doesn't want to deal with Jill and Cindy pressing her for details. Kelly couldn't even show up because when Jill interrupted her watching the second season of The Fairly OddParents on DVD with the news of Sonja's bankruptcy, Kelly couldn't handle the stress of real world matters and hung up on her and couldn't leave the house for three days until she had cleaned and reorganized her vast collection of Silly Bandz. Alex rightfully says that what Sonja really needs is a friend to get her drunk, cry with her, and tell her that the world sucks and everything is going to be OK. Not everyone needs advice or someone to fix things. Sometimes all you need is someone to listen to you vent—a bitch there to listen to you bitch. That's more valuable than all the bad advice in the world.
But now Sonja is totally getting the Bag Lady Edit. There was a whole scene about how her clothes are all old and pinned together and she keeps the tags in so she can show everyone how she got them on sale (PS, world, 60% off a $5000 cashmere blazer is still like $2000). Then they show her trying to hit the cheese plate hard like it's the only meal she's going to eat in three days or something. Yes, Sonja's bankrupt, but stop trying to make her look like she's living a trailer and trying to pass it off as a Park Avenue apartment.
Everyone starts talking about Jill's new shapewear line called Spanx with Lace and Alex realizes that Ramona's not coming. Jill says she wasn't invited because she doesn't trust Ramona to do business. Alex points out that Ramona is just the person you want there for business. Damn, Alex, why do you have to keep being right?! But what makes her right isn't the reason she gave, its because Ramona, as we know, is an unrestrained id run rampant on the world. She's like a 13 year-old in a crash helmet streaking down the street screaming "Macaroni, macaroni, macaroni" while punching passersby and taking a dump right there on the sidewalk. Ramona will say whatever the fuck pops into her head at any moment. If you're starting a new company, that's just the kind of honesty you need. You don't need your friends oohing and aahing, you need some bitch to be like "Why is this so tight? This isn't going to work. No one wants this." That is Ramona. Basically, Ramona is your worst customer and if you can make a product to please her, you can please anyone.
Immediately Alex meets with Ramona and is like "Jill didn't invite you and was talking shit about you," and Ramona is like, "That's why I'm mad at Jill cause she talks shit." That was the point of that whole conversation.
Moving on, Alex has another fight to pick. She and Crackerjacks have their contractually-obligated "conflict resolution lunch" to rehash the fight that they had in Morocco when CJ called Alex a cabinet dwelling C.H.U.D. or something. It was a dumb fight (they're all dumb fights, aren't they?). Anyway, Crackerjacks shows up and is all "Well, Alex, I can't imagine what you possibly have to say to me! I mean, I am the Countess and you are Alex McCord, queen of the C.H.U.D.s who lives in a cabinet in Brooklyn next to Herman Munster." Alex is like, "Um, well, I wanted to talk to you about how you are always a haughty, condescending bitch just like you're being right now."
LuAnn's point was that Alex was trying to get up in her business where she didn't belong. A fair point, but Alex's argument was, even if Crackerjacks disagreed with Alex's behavior, she didn't have to talk to her like she was a snotty fifteen year old from Appalachia (which is now how everyone talks to Sonja, cause she po'). That is also a fair point. This right here is the problem/brilliance with the Housewives. They can continue making their valid points at each other ad nauseum and having this same old fight over and over and back and forth for entire seasons (as proof witness Tamra and Gretchen from the O.C. branch who have been having one argument for about 5 season, which is 7893 in Real Housewife years). Instead of confronting each other and saying, "Yes, I was wrong, and I'm sorry, but you were wrong too, we were both wrong, let's move past this." Housewives can not grasp the concept of "both wrong" which is something that the denizens of Jersey Shore have embraced (they call it "neutralizing," which is when one person treats you like shit so you treat them like shit in return and then you both call the whole thing even). How can Snooki grasp this but none of these other ladies can?
Since one of the Housewives always thinks she's right and the other party wrong, then they just continue this accusatory waltz, again and again, the same steps on a tired dance floor until the song runs out or they get kicked off the show for being too boring. But it's the waltz that's so much fun to watch. That's when you get bon mots like LuAnn cutting on Alex's shoes and her defending them and then LuAnn just dismissing Alex and storming out of the restaurant rather than taking time to actually listen to her and find some sort of common ground.
What is wrong with Alex? Why won't anyone listen to her? Kelly wouldn't in Morocco and now Crackerjacks whisks her off with a flick of her downturned hand like she's refusing a cucumber sandwich at a tea party. Poor Alex. After Crackerjacks storms off, Alex just stays in her seat, picks up her water glass and gives a little sip. The she sighs, just a little wisp of resignation escaping from her body. They'll never listen. They'll never take her seriously, she realizes. No matter how strong she gets, how outspoken, how right, the girls will always look down on her. Not in the same way they do on Sonja, who they see as a debutante roiling around in the filth of circumstance, but in a different way. Like she's an upstart, like she will never be good enough no matter what she do.
And she sighs again. That's all Alex can do these days is sigh. And think of Simon, sitting at home, rifling through her basket of panties, selecting just the right one for his fantasy tonight. He picks out something tattered and worn. Something a bankrupt person would wear. "Simon, I don't want to do Bleak House tonight," she says. But he holds the panties on his outstretched finger and makes that face that says, "Please, mommy. Please," and she just takes them with a little sigh and gets dressed and he rubs his hands over her bare shoulders. She can feel his warmth, from his hands, from his body, from his breath rasping on her neck, which she bends to one side as he goes in for a kiss, snatching her back against his slowly erecting body. And she spins around to meet them, her flesh becoming his flesh. She is everything he wants her to be. To him, she is everything that she isn't to the ladies: smart, beautiful, engaging, and, most of all, worthy. She kisses him long and deep and hard again, her emotion oozing out of her flesh, her sighs finally stifled.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Lipscomb's runners had their moments, but the field athletes carried the team.
The Bisons placed second behind host Tennessee State and the Lady Bisons finished fifth Saturday at the TSU Invitational at the Gentry Center.
"It was a big day for our field event athletes," coach Bill Taylor said. "They really led the way for the team.
"In the running events we did well. There were some nice performances. Dani Walker got a win in the mile in her season debut. Colin Dempster ran a solid time in the 400m. But overall we were a bit flat though on the track."
Walker made the most of her season debut in indoor track picking up first place in a field of 33 in the women's 1-mile run with a time of 5:08.04. Barbara Lee Ball was fourth (5:10.25) and Madi Talbert finished seventh (5:20.54).
Walker also finished third in the women's 800 meters with a time of 2:18.59.
"Dani ran well considering where we are in our training," Taylor said. "Dani has been further behind too due to a severely sprained ankle. They were not her best performances, but not bad considering where she's at right now."
Meredith Kilburn placed third in the women's 5,000-meter run with a time of 18:02.39, just ahead of Minna Fields in fourth with a finish of 18:09.90.
In the women's pole vault Annika Backlund was first with a 3.56 meter attempt, setting a school record. Sarah Browning was fourth.
Ki'ana Christy's 11.27 effort in the women's triple jump placed her 13th in the event, but set a school record.
Sarah Wagner finished 10th in the women's high jump with a school record 11.63 meters.
April Terry was third in the women's weight throw with a 16.92-meter try, a school record. She was fifth in the shot put with an effort of 12.84 meters.
In the men's 400 meters Dempster (49.30) and Tucker Peabody (49.95) placed second and third respectively.
Andrew Bosket was second in the men's 800 meters with a time of 1:57.91.
D.A. Lowery placed fifth in the men's 1-mile run (4:30.04).
Kevin Floyd was first in the men's pole vault with a 4.32 meter attempt giving Lipscomb a sweep in the pole vault events. Aaron Beckwith was third with a 4.01-meter try.
"I'm not surprised by the pole vault finishes," Taylor said. "We have a young vault crew. They are very close and are helping each other and motivating each other."
Taylor credits Jeremy Brading, a volunteer assistant coach, for helping the vaulters improve.
"We have more coaching help in the vault with Jeremy," Taylor said. "I think we are going to be really, really strong in the vault."
The Bisons earned first and second place in the men's high jump. Gemikal Prude led with a 2.20 meter try. Phillip Smith was close behind at 2.08 meters.
Smith finished sixth in the long jump with a 7.05-meter effort.
"We finished the meet with Gemikal and Phillip going 1-2 in the high jump," Taylor said. "Phillip jumped a lifetime personal best and set a new school record for long jump that goes back to 1977.
"Gemikal's leap of 7-feet-2-and-a-half inches will probably rank him about fifth in the entire nation. It may qualify him for the NCAA I Indoor Nationals."

SANTA BARBARA, CA — Almost a year after the National Board of Fitness Examiners (NBFE) began offering its written exam, anecdotal interviews with a small number of the 500 personal trainers who have taken the exam offer mixed reviews of the test.
"The exam itself was difficult," says Keri Kaeding, owner of personal training business Radiant Fitness in Crittenden, KY. She took the exam in January without taking a prep course. "I was impressed with how complex the questions were. It required a lot of analysis for a multiple choice test."
Kathleen Vanderselt, a personal trainer in St. Louis, took the exam six months ago without a prep course. The exam was similar in difficulty to her current certification exam, she says, but it was "just one step up in expertise level" because the questions delved deeper into some of the anatomy and physiology.
Edwin Ryan, assistant fitness coordinator at Florida International University's recreation center, took the exam in fall 2005. He was impressed by the exam's broad content. However, the broad content is what made the exam easy for Heath Gay.
"It was the easiest test I've ever taken in my entire life," says Gay, who took the exam in December when he was employed at a corporate fitness facility and worked as an instructor at the National Personal Training Institute in Colorado Springs, CO, where he still teaches. "I understand why it was so easy because it has to cover such a wide range of knowledge. When you get so broad, you can only get so deep."
The NBFE offers the written exam as a national board saying it defines scopes of practice for fitness professionals and sets a national standard for personal trainers. Fifteen certifying agencies are affiliated with the NBFE. An affiliated certifying group is one whose training programs and curricula have been approved by the NBFE. Personal trainers who sit for the NBFE exam must hold a certification from one of these affiliates (or hold a four-year degree). Most of the 11 certifying agencies that have followed the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association's recommendation about pursuing accreditation through the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA) are not NBFE affiliates.
A growing number of personal trainers have registered to take the exam up to six months in advance to give them preparation time, says Dr. Sal Arria, executive director of NBFE. In response, national board review courses are being offered by affiliate organizations and colleges.
Currently, the written exam, which is Part I of the NBFE exam, can be taken at 250 Thomson Prometric sites. In a few months, the test will be available in a pencil-paper version at more sites, including at affiliate organizations' events and workshops. Regardless of where the exams are administered, they will be supervised by NBFE proctors, says Arria.
Part II of the exam, the practical portion, is in development with plans to make it available in 2007, says Arria. The NBFE has identified subject matter experts to assist in developing and testing the practical exam.
All of the personal trainers interviewed plan to take the practical exam when it is completed.
Credibility was the main reason the trainers took the NBFE exam.
"I was eager to have a credential [from an organization] that said it was a national regulatory board and to show I could pass that," Vanderselt says.
Rhonda Ekstrom, fitness coordinator at Harbor Tennis and Fitness in Klamath Falls, OR, took the NBFE exam in June as a personal challenge and to increase the level of credibility she has with her clients, who are all professionals.
Gay took the written exam because NBFE promoted it as a test that every trainer would need to eventually have, he says. However, few of the trainers he has talked to have heard of the exam, and none of his students has signed up to take it despite his suggestion to do so.
Part of the issue may be that the NBFE has done little promotion beyond its affiliate agencies. Therefore, personal trainers who don't hold certifications from affiliated organizations may not be aware of the group.
The other issue may be money. Degrees, certifications and continuing education credits require a financial investment. Add to that fees for a prep course, study materials and the NBFE exam and it can price out trainers, especially those beginning their careers, Gay says.
Ekstrom's exam fee was paid for by her club, but she says the costs aren't too high since most trainers don't do everything at one time.
"It's going to cost money, but in this day and age, you can't do it for free and expect it to be valuable," she says.
As supervisor of the personal trainers at his facility, Ryan requires that they be board certified by January and pass the practical exam when it is available. Instead of the club paying the exam fees, the facility will give the trainers who pass a 10 percent pay increase, Ryan says.
Money is one reason Dan Gaita is not a fan of the NBFE. Gaita is a personal trainer and offers an online personal trainer listing service at www.personaltrainer.cc.
"In theory, what NBFE wants to do is great, but in actuality, this is just another opportunity to grab a greater share of the personal trainer money," Gaita says.
Gaita's other concern is that certifying agencies such as the American Council on Exercise, American College of Sports Medicine and the National Sports Conditioning Association have not chosen to become affiliates of the NBFE. Instead, these groups have pursued NCCA accreditation.
Ekstrom also expressed concern about this, saying that it divides the training community to not have all the groups be on the same page.
An issue that hurts NBFE credibility for Ryan is the exam's passing grade of 129 out of 180 scored questions, which equates to 71.9 percent. Ryan suggests it should be 90 percent instead.
"I don't know if we want someone to be training who missed 30 percent of the questions," says Ryan. "We are saying that this person is competent, and I'm not sure [that they are competent]."
However, the passing grade was set based on input from Thomson Prometric, a testing development vendor, and from NBFE fellows.
"The passing grade is a product of the difficulty of the questions," says Rob Sapp with the NBFE.
Regardless of a trainer's passing score, client results are what personal training is all about, says Gaita.
"In the end, it will come down to which trainers have which certifications and which trainers get the best results for their clients," says Gaita.

An asylum seeker who lost an eye in an outbreak of violence on Manus Island is suing the federal government and security company G4S.
The man now has total and permanent vision loss in one eye and also suffered facial fractures so severe that surgeons used titanium plates to repair his skull.
His lawyer says the man was hit in a face by a rock moments before security personnel, and angry PNG locals, stormed into the detention facility on February 17.
"People - locals and others - broke into his compound and started attacking the people housed there," Jane McDermott, a principal at Morris Blackburn Layers, told reporters in Melbourne on Tuesday.
"He was hiding under his bed in the room to escape all the activities and violence going on that night."
The riots, which continued over three days, resulted in the death of Iranian asylum seeker Reza Barati and the injury of around 60 others.
The man, aged in his 30s, required a medical evacuation to Brisbane where surgeons tried unsuccessfully to save his ruptured right eye.
Papers to initiate a compensation bid were filed in a Victorian court on Tuesday, and they point to failures to provide adequate fencing and security as well as staff ill-equipped to deal with unrest.
"Sadly Reza Barati lost his life during this violence and 60 other people were injured during that night," Mrs McDermott said.
"There is a parallel here because the Commonwealth of Australia failed to ensure the safety of all of the people housed in the compound."
The name of the man taking legal action has not been released out of concern for recriminations against his family.
Now at Villawood detention centre in Sydney, the man has ongoing psychological problems and will be assessed for a possible acquired brain injury.
He feared being returned to Manus Island where he would "lose his other eye".
Greens immigration spokeswoman Senator Sarah Hanson-Young said a Senate inquiry into Reza Barati's death showed the detention facility "is not safe and never will be".
"The Abbott government failed to ensure the safety of those on Manus Island and they must now face the music," she said.
A directions hearing has been set down for September 18.
A spokesman for Immigration Minister Scott Morrison said the minister had taken note of the claims being made.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (March 20, 2014) – After playing 20 non-conference games to begin season, the ETSU baseball team opens Atlantic Sun Conference play this weekend when the Bucs host Stetson beginning Friday evening at Thomas Stadium.
Saturday is "Youth Day" at Thomas Stadium, so children 12 and under get in for free.
Friday – 4:05 p.m. – Game No. 21
RHP Austin Hutchison (1-1, 2.95) vs. LHP Austin Perez (0-3, 4.23)
Saturday – 2:05 p.m. – Game No. 22
RHP Jimmy Nesselt (2-1, 3.58) vs. vs. RHP Josh Powers (1-3, 5.66)
Sunday – 1:05 p.m. – Game No. 23
LHP Jamin McCann (2-1, 3.21) vs. RHP Taylor Cockrell (2-2, 4.06)
ETSU (9-11) snapped Western Carolina's 21-game home win streak after powering its way past the Catamounts, 12-9, Wednesday night at Hennon Stadium. The win streak was the longest in the nation.
The Bucs belted three home runs and tied a season high with 14 hits, while the 12 runs scored were the most by ETSU this season.
Seniors Matt Sorrow (Griffin, Ga.), Tyler Roach (Knoxville, Tenn.) and Clinton Freeman (Jonesborough, Tenn.) all hit home runs, while it was sophomore Jeremy Taylor's (Fayetteville, Ga.) 2-RBI triple in the seventh that eventually plated the game-winning runs for the Blue and Gold. Sorrow and Roach, who hit their first home runs in an ETSU uniform Wednesday night, hit solo shots in the third, and Freeman's two-run blast put the Bucs ahead, 8-2, in the fourth. Overall, Freeman went 4 for 6 with two RBI and also recorded a six-out save, while Sorrow was 3 for 4 with three runs and three RBI. Taylor extended his streak of reaching base safely to 10 straight games after going 2 for 6 with three runs scored.
The three home runs hit by the Bucs were the most since hitting four against USC Upstate back on April 15, 2012.
Along with snapping the Catamounts' 21-game home win streak, the Blue and Gold also snapped an eight-game skid to Western Carolina, while also breaking a seven-game losing streak in Cullowhee. The last time ETSU defeated the Catamounts, prior to last night, was back on May 16, 2006, and it was the Bucs' first win at Western Carolina since April 9, 2005.
Stetson has won five of its last eight and enter weekend play at 7-14.
Reigning A-Sun Freshman of the Year and Baseball America Freshman All-American Patrick Mazeika leads the team in batting average (.333) and hits (24), while junior two-way player Josh Powers is hitting .328 (20-61).
As a team, the Hatters are hitting .238 (164-689) and have recorded only one home run in 689 at-bats – sophomore infielder Kevin Fagan with the lone round tripper for Stetson. Stetson is 12-for-14 in stolen base opportunities, but opponents are 31-for-41.
The Hatters are making just their second trip outside the state of Florida this season as Stetson dropped two games at then-No. 3 South Carolina on March 4-5. All seven of Stetson's wins have come at home, while the Hatters are 0-4 in road games.
The Hatters lead the all-time series, 18-10, but the Bucs won the last meeting – a 4-3 (11-inning) walk-off win over Stetson in the first game of the A-Sun Tournament.
Overall, Stetson has won eight of the last 11 in the series.
Last season, the series was tightly contested as the Hatters outscored the Bucs, 14-10, but the Blue and Gold outhit Stetson, .270-.244. Jeremy Taylor was 7 for 17 (.412) in four games against the Hatters. On the mound, Clinton Freeman was 1-0 with a 1.50 ERA (1 ER/6.0 IP) in two relief appearances last season.
Stetson swept ETSU in its last visit to Thomas Stadium back in 2012, while the Bucs swept the Hatters in Johnson City back in 2010 when the Blue and Gold outscored Stetson, 44-15.
Live stats will be available for this weekend's series via StatBroadcast by visiting ETSUBucs.com. Fans can access live stats on their computers, mobile devices or tablets.
Live audio will be available for the games on Saturday and Sunday on WXSM-AM 640 The Extreme Sports Monster with "Voice of the Bucs" Jay Sandos handling the play-by-play.

The Bucs gear up for a pair of midweek games as ETSU hosts Western Carolina Tuesday night at 7:05 p.m. at Thomas Stadium, while the Blue and Gold travel to Appalachian State Wednesday at 4 p.m.
Single-game tickets to ETSU baseball games are $10 for reserved seats behind home plate and $5 for reserved seats along the baselines.

Arrested Development Documentary Has To Hit Up Kickstarter Because Fox Claims Copyright On Set Photos
from the wtf dept
And, now, there's an even crazier example. Two huge fans of the cult favorite TV show, Arrested Development have made a documentary about the show, talking to a ton of people who created and acted in the show, as well as to a bunch of fans. Given that a new season (via Netflix) is quickly approaching, getting this documentary out would make sense. The film is finished according to the filmmakers. Done done done. So why are they asking Kickstarter for $20,053? Yup, you guessed it. Copyright licensing issues. And this time, it's really crazy:
After five years, we're finally close to releasing the documentary. Our final step is to pay the network for photos from the set of the show. These photos are extremely relevant to the story, and we can't move forward with the release of the documentary until our fees are paid to the network. This is where you come in. Help us pay the network fees so every Arrested fan can see this documentary!Yes, photos from the set. And, "the network" in this case is 20th Century Fox. This seemed so ridiculous to me that I asked the filmmakers, Jeff Smith & Neil Lieberman, for the details, and they said that these are photos taken by a variety of people on set and that the people who took the photos gave them to Jeff & Neil willingly, but that "the network is claiming copyright." Just to be clear, Jeff & Neil don't have a problem with this, saying that they believe that this is "within the network's rights" to make that claim and they emphasized that Fox was giving them a "deep discount on the photos" and that it "could have been much worse" otherwise.
While it's great that the filmmakers are fine with this, it still seems quite troubling to me. Whoever took the photos in the first place would own the copyright on the basic photos themselves. This implies that Fox is claiming copyright on the set itself, which appears in the images (or, they're lying and claiming copyright on something they have no copyright on). And, yes, they could potentially claim copyright on the set -- but that doesn't make this any less crazy. Jeff & Neil would have a massively clear fair use argument if they were challenged on using these images. It is not as if the use of those images would somehow harm the "market" for "the set" itself (which is about all the network could possibly be claiming copyright on). It would obviously be a transformative use, and they'd just be displaying parts of the set. This is about as open and shut a fair use case as you could possibly imagine.
And, really, this is doubly ridiculous, because this documentary is only going to help promote the show more, not harm it in any way... oh wait. Fox no longer benefits from that because Fox cancelled the show and the new season is happening on Netflix instead... Perhaps that's what this is about. The cash from this Kickstarter could have gone into all sorts of actually useful things, including more marketing and promotions for the documentary (which does look great). But, instead, it's going into Fox's bank account, because Rupert Murdoch needs it more than two independent documentary filmmakers who were huge fans of the show. I thought copyright was supposed to be about helping filmmakers, not forcing them to waste $20,000+ dollars on a bogus copyright claim..

If you've noticed that the cost of childcare has begun eating into larger chunks of your household budget, you're not alone: on average, childcare has become more expensive than housing in most states, according to a report released today.
Even as the economy continues to stagnate, the cost of childcare has continued to rise and families struggle to afford quality care.
The report, conducted by Child Care Aware of America, surveyed the average cost of child care in 2011 for infants, 4-year-olds, and school-age children in centers and family child care homes nationwide. Among its findings:
- In 35 states and the District of Columbia, the average annual cost for center-based care for an infant was higher than a year's in-state tuition and related fees at a four-year public college.
- In every state and the District of Columbia, center-based child care costs for two children (an infant and a 4-year-old) exceeded annual average rent payments.
- In 2011, the average annual cost of full-time child care for an infant in a center ranged from about $4,600 in Mississippi to nearly $15,000 in Massachusetts.
- The average annual cost of full-time care for a 4-year-old child in a center ranged from about $3,900 in Mississippi to nearly $11,700 in Massachusetts.
- In New York, parents of school-age children paid nearly $11,000 a year for part-time care in a center.
- In 2011, the average annual cost of full-time care for an infant in a family child care home ranged from $4,500 in South Carolina to nearly $10,400 in New York.
- The average annual cost for a 4-year-old in a family child care home ranged from $4,100 in South Carolina to about $9,600 in New York.
It's not just childcare that's getting more expensive. These spikes come at a time when everything seems to be getting pricier. Gas prices are flirting with this year's high of nearly $4 a gallon. And food prices have inched up nationwide – the United Nations index of cereal prices shot up by 17% in July alone.
The report ranks the 10 least-affordable states for center care, based on the cost of child care as a percentage of state median income for a two-parent family. Ranked order, these were: New York, Minnesota, Oregon, Colorado, Hawaii, Kansas, California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Indiana and Wisconsin.
The least-affordable states (in ranked order) for full-time care for a 4-year-old in a center in 2011 were: New York, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Oregon, Vermont, Colorado, Kansas, Massachusetts, Indiana, Maine and Rhode Island.
Because of the rising costs in child care, many families may be tempted to cut corners by seeking out affordable childcare. But Child Care Aware of America advises against unlicensed settings as they do not have to meet state health and safety standards, and providers are not required to be trained and the settings are not inspected.

LA TOUSSUIRE, France — Chris Froome always expected his rivals to throw everything at him and his Tour de France race lead. He just didn't expect that would happen when he was stopped by the side of the road.
Showing bristle beneath his mild manners, the British rider angrily tore into Vincenzo Nibali, calling him "unsportsmanlike" after the defending champion accelerated away while Froome was fixing a stuck wheel on the toughest Alpine climb on Friday.
Nibali, who went on to win Stage 19, said: "He was very angry but that's his problem."
Froome said a stone or piece of asphalt jammed between his brake and rear wheel on the Col de la Croix de Fer...
