The individual radio spots that comprise the campaign include "Grandma," "Karaoke," "Shakespeare," "Tango Lessons," and "Yoga." The Radio Lions jury selected a total of eight spots from DeVito/Verdi to shortlist, the second most for any U.S. advertising agency.
Edited NTRA releaseThe National Thoroughbred Racing Association's co-op radio advertising campaign won a Gold Lion Award at this past week's 52nd International Advertising Festival in Cannes, France. The award is one of the highest honors handed out at the international awards competition. The NTRA campaign, produced by the New York advertising agency DeVito/Verdi, defeated entries from around the world, including major marketers and brands like Miller Lite, Budweiser, Absolut, Virgin Atlantic, Air France and Sony PlayStation. The NTRA campaign, entitled "And They're Off," features a race announcer calling the proceedings of everyday leisure events with the same brio as he would a horse race. "It's very gratifying to be recognized with one of the most prestigious awards in the field of advertising," said Keith Chamblin, NTRA senior vice president marketing and industry relations. "It's equally gratifying to know that the campaign is being utilized by more than 30 member associations across the country including member race tracks in major media markets such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York and that it continues to resonate with horse racing's target customer."The Gold Lion is just the latest industry accolade collected by the NTRA campaign. Since debuting three years ago, the NTRA commercials have received much critical acclaim. Its awards have included a National Addy Best of Show (defeating more than 60,000 radio and television commercial submissions), three Gold Addys, the $100,000 grand prize at the Radio Mercury Awards honoring the nation's top radio advertisement, three One Show Gold Pencils, a Gold medal from the Art Director's Club, and the Grand Award for Best Radio Campaign at the New York Festivals. The campaign also was named "Best of the Best" by the National Retail Federation's Retail Advertising Conference (RAC) and was honored by the Sports Marketing Association as the top sports broadcast advertisement in 2004. "This campaign has a long way to go before being put out to pasture. It just gets stronger year after year," said Ellis Verdi, president of DeVito/Verdi. "The campaign has had a remarkable run, and has proven to be highly effective as the racing industry continues to attract a younger audience to the sport."

NPS Radius Proxy on standalone server?
Hello All,
We have an NPS Radius server that works, the server is a ember of a domain and a cisco device was set up to be a Radius client, i was able to make conections in this setup.
Another standalone, non domain member, server was set up to be a Radius proxy. I can see the authentication attempts on the Radius server but the get rejected.
The proxy has a connection request policy to forward all requests to the radius server. The proxy is set up as a client on the readius server and the radius server is set up as a remote readius server on the proxy.
The only thing I noticed is the following.
For a successful attempt when it is made directly against the radius server, the security log entry looks something like this:
Security ID: DOMAIN\User
Account Name: User
Account Domain: DOMAIN
Fully Qualified Account Name: domain.com/Users/User
For the failed one, the log entry on the radius server looks like this:User:
Security ID: NULL SID
Account Name: User
Account Domain: DOMAIN
Fully Qualified Account Name: DOMAIN\User
What am I doing wrong?

Hi B.Voros,
Thanks for posting here.
First at all domain membership of the NPS proxy is irrelevant. The proxy does not need to be registered in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) because it does not need access to the dial-in properties of user accounts.
According to you description ,It seems proxy did forward the requests to the RADIUS server but somehow it failed. May I know if any special setting in the request polies we defined on proxy server ? modified attributes ?

Hi Tiger,
Thank you for your response.
There is no special setting in the request policy on the proxy server, everything is kept as default.
One thing I noticed it that the Newtwork Policy on the Radius server does not get evaluated for the requests coming from the Proxy even though the conditions are set up so it should. Currently it's only the NAS Port type. Tried it with all sorts of different conditions, always the same result, the Network policy does not get evaluated for those requests.
If the nas is pointed directly against the radius server it works.
One more thing,
The Proxy checklist says that the NPS Proxy should be registered in the domain. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772591.aspx
How do you register a standalone server?

The Phillies didn't waste any time in postponing today's scheduled home opener against the Brewers at 3:05 pm and moving it to Tuesday at 4:05 pm instead due to the weather forecast calling for rain all day long. The fact that they made the call over 24 hours in advance gave fans plenty of time to make adjusted plans.
I wouldn't be surprised if some unprepared fans didn't get the memo and end up drinking in the rain. Could be worse problems to have though, I suppose.
The change does impact the Phillies starting rotation as they'll need a fifth starter earlier than planned since Kyle Kendrick will pitch in the home opener on Tuesday instead of Monday. That means the Phils will need a fifth guy on Saturday.
David Murphy writing at the Daily News points to Jonathan Pettibone as the logical choice over David Buchanan given the circumstances:
Pettibone has a couple of things going for him. First and foremost, he is familiar, having made 18 starts for the Phillies last season, during which time they went 10-8. Second, he is on the 40-man roster, and David Buchanan is not, and the 40-man roster is full. The fact that Pettibone pitched yesterday means he could start on Saturday on normal rest (plus an extra day). All of those conveniences could very well prompt the Phillies to bring up Pettibone, who would then face the Braves in Philly on Thursday, the Dodgers in Los Angeles on April 22, and the Diamondbacks in Arizona on April 27. At that point, Cole Hamels is expected to rejoin the rotation.
The Phils return home with a 3-3 record that places them down towards the bottom of the NL East after dropping a series in Texas and taking one in Chicago.
Hopefully you have a cool boss and he'll let you swap your half day on Monday for a halfday on Tuesday. Or maybe you're still a lucky college kid and can take off whenever you want.
The Phils will throw the first pitch at Citizens Bank Park this year shortly after 4:05 pm on Tuesday.

Volunteer Now!, which is part of Voluntary Action Arun and Chichester, is appealing for people to help the Summerlea House nursing home, in East Street.
The home runs a special befriending programme to enrich the lives of its residents.
The scheme aims to provide regular visits from volunteers, to sit and chat with people living at Summerlea House.
Those keen to take on the role could also be called upon to help with shopping trips. Applicants should have a friendly nature, enjoy being with people and be good listerners.
Other opportunities available for prospective volunteers across the Gazette this week are:
n Littlehampton's Oxfam shop is looking for someone to help out at the store, in Bayford Road.
Volunteers would assist with the sorting, pricing and displaying of the items that have been donated. They may also be required to operate the tills. Full training would be given for this.
Those keen to become a part of the team should visit the www.do-it.org.uk website or call Volunteer Now! on 01243 864220.

BYU basketball: Bench, defense lead Cougars to victory over Northern Arizona (+video)
Kralon HUNTINGTON BEACH, CADec. 28, 2012 9:19 p.m.
Just the FAX
RealTime RPI is probably not the most dependable SOS statistical method to use. A team can literally swing 30 spots late in the season because of how it is calculated. RealTime RPI really rewards wins against good teams and punishes losing against poor teams regardless of how close the game was.
While all different stats have weaknesses, it would be better to look at Sagarin or Pomeroy this early (almost half way) in the season. Or maybe even use Massey Ratings where 36 different statistical SOS methods including Realtime RPI, Sagarin and Pomeroy are used to rank the 347 D1 teams.

UC Baller: you don't think they are trying? it's almost impossible to get a good team to come to Provo. All the good teams know the risk. Believe me, the Y tries very hard to do so. That's why we are playing VA Tech in SLC. couldn't get them to Provo.

Note to Call...Haws and Davies have done this all year when they play Northern Arizona level competition...not when they play unranked D1 schools...
Quote of the year.
Just out of curiosity who exactly are the unranked DI schools U have beat this year? Try not to let the fact you're playing College of Idaho tonight distract you from responding.
CougFaninTX Frisco, TXDec. 28, 2012 10:55 a.m.
Carlino, Cusick and Zylsta were not great players last year; but all three had times when they played great. I was expecting all three to take a big step forward this year and really improve our guard / perimeter play, but instead if feels like all three have taken a step back from last year.
Delgado is showing more potential than all of them. I hope Rose will make one more starting change on Saturday and put Delgado into the starting line up at the 2 spot.
If we are to have a chance against Zags, Saint Marys and Santa Clara; we are going to need more than Davies and Haws.
We need a few games against the Nothern Arizona's, but with the talent that is coming in the next few years, I hope to see more non-conference games against Top 50 type programs. I'd love our non-conference schedule to look like the Zags.

Note to indycrimson
Why are you trolling BYU blogs instead of worrying about your own team "tuning up" to be PAC 12 cannon fodder by playing tiny College of Idaho, enrollment 1050?
Of course we'll hear lots of Utah fans praising the Utes for their vast "improvement", IF the Utes don't blow another double-digit halftime lead, but that's just the way U roll.
IDC Boise, IDDec. 28, 2012 8:17 a.m.
Sharp and Zylstra are looking flat. Delgado is really looking good - he is athletic and a good shooter.
dumprake Washington, UTDec. 28, 2012 7:58 a.m.
I'm just dismayed that Austin, a 6' 11" guy cannot make a shot around the basket, and how is it he gets clobbered in the face every time he shoots? And 25% from 3 pt land is not going to cut it, and these were wide open uncontested threes. We're even worse when they are contested.
Delgado can play, he is going to be a great player for BYU, I would play him ahead of Carlino right now--he's a better defender and a better offensive player. I'm not sure Sharp and Zylstra are going to contribute much this year, they should, but if they can't do it against an awful team like NAU, they aren't going to do it against the good teams.

UC Baller Salt Lake City, UTDec. 28, 2012 2:11 a.m.
As a season ticket holder, can we plz schedule teams worth watching? The 30 point blowouts are not worth driving to anymore....
If we want to be a big time program, lets drop the hyphenated teams and JC's please.
cal cougar camarillo, CADec. 28, 2012 1:29 a.m.
Watched game. Brandon finally started getting ball in areas that are not low post as well. He is tearing it up.
Carlino still won't shoot pull up jumper from 10 to 15 feet except once a game. He could score so many points this way. Overpenetrates a lot.
Austin takes good shots, just weren't going down. Haws always great.
Too many 3 point attempts from players not making them. A shooter has to shoot to get hot. But why not get in closer first. Too many players setting up for catch and shoots 5 feet beyond arc.
There are 3 things that make difference to win games. Tonights grades.
1) Lack of turnovers BYU with 13. Grade B+
2) Not allowing second chance points BYU with 6. Grade B+
3) Shot selection. Grade C
Against a good team, you can't be getting a C on shot selection and hope to win. Almost no midrange game except for Davies and Haws. Too many long threes. Too many 3 pointers from players that are cold. Overpenetration by guards.
BYU has had a major problem all season with number 3. To be a good(tourney) team, all three need to be healthy.

I just visited a guy that had a craigslist add up for some ford parts.. He is scrapping a bunch of metal and a couple of full chasis ford trucks. Has a couple of engines, mufflers, and misc. stuff sitting around. I went by with the wife (love her for coming with me, and in her new car down a dirt road). The guy gave me a set of stock 5.0 headers and says I can come by and take whatever I want tomorrow, would have let me today, but i told him I didnt want to keep the wife waiting. The headers will probably go on the 67's 289, I picked up cast iron paint today to clean and paint the stock manifolds.. Looks like Ill be cleaning these instead.
Also going to pick up the distribution blocks from both trucks. The dynomax and flowmaster mufflers, and whatever else I can scrounge. He has a t5 bellhousing, pressure plate and throwout bearing that he is giving away.. Excited! I swear this is karma from me giving a good old boy my opentracker shelby drop template!
5.0 headers like from a fox? you could just blast them they are stainless and look pretty good bare
Really!? I didnt know that! I'll have to check it out. They are in the garage now. Ill post pics later.
Good haul, but....
5.0 headers will not fit on a vintage car, there are too many interference problems on one side or both. I've already looked into it with the ones I had.
They can fit. Someone here actually did it this summer. Jaws hit floors, myth slammed!
1 Attachment(s)
Im going to give it a try, I did notice that they wont attach to the original Y pipe for the single exhaust due to the angle of the headers.. Ill put a pic up in a lilttle bit to see if we can squash the problem..
Here's a pic of the headers next to the original manifold.
Attachment 60172
5 Attachment(s)
Here are the results:
The passenger side fits great. Drivers side hits on the steering box and the bellhousing.. Examples:
Attachment 60137
D/S, bolted up after a little grinding of the collector flange. It is fully welded all the way around the top, so I figured taking a little off wouldnt hurt.
It just barely touches the top of the steering box, and I mean like a hair of space.. The flange is what kept it from going in at first.
Attachment 60138
What I took off..
Attachment 60139
Attachment 60140
Attachment 60141
I think it will be pretty tight with the drivers side and the angle of the collector output. It points pretty steeply towards the floor, and the steering linkage at the box. But I think with the correct bend at the ball flange to bring it out, a custom exhaust would be easy to fab up.
When I tried my stock 5.0 headers on my 67 they hit the bellhousing, steering box, and equalizer bar.
Yep, mine is an automatic, so no worry on the equalizer bar. I think Ill set them aside for a rainy day and a new exhaust system. Going to paint my manifolds and stick them back in.

Rangers, like any club, rely on season ticket income.
The difference between them and others of the same size and stature, though, it that it is the Ibrox team's single most significant revenue stream, at least as they work their way through the lower leagues. Dave King's call for fans to pay their renewal money into a trust fund is, in effect, a call for supporters to try to directly influence decisions made in the boardroom.
The battle for control of the season ticket money is a battle for control of Rangers. King is not calling for a boycott, only for fans to use their influence as the providers of the most important revenue stream to shape the club the way they want it to be.
Loading article content
He has always made it clear he wants to invest in Rangers again, but through a share issue so that his money goes directly into the team. Under this scenario, current shareholders must reinvest or their stakes will be diluted, and King's wealth would essentially see him and a consortium of like-minded fan investors take a controlling stake.
"I do not believe that Rangers should be under the control of one owner/benefactor," King said. "We have seen the damage caused when the club becomes a hostage to the fluctuating whims and wealth of a single owner. I see my role as being the lead investor of a like-minded consortium that will invest in the club, along with the supporters, without the short-sightedness of an immediate return on investment."
It is an impasse that forced King to release a lengthy public statement yesterday. He negotiated with Sandy Easdale, the chairman of Rangers Football Club although not a member of the Rangers International Football Club board, last year. The current RIFC directors are also fully aware of King's wish to invest in a new equity issue, but the South Africa-based businessman, and lifelong Rangers fan, now "no longer believes that I can achieve this with the board that is presently in place".
Having previously insisted that Rangers had sufficient cash reserves to see them through until the end of the season, the board earlier this week agreed to a loan facility of £1.5m from Sandy Easdale and Laxey Partners, the single largest shareholder. The latter will receive a 15% premium, or £150,000 on their £1m loan, payable in cash or shares.
The money repayable to both lenders, on September 1, is secured against Edmiston House and the Albion car park. The loan effectively buys time until season ticket renewal money normally begins to come in during the summer.
King, like other potential investors, cannot buy a controlling stake in the markets without paying over the odds. That is the legacy of the decision of the consortium behind Charles Green to limit shareholders to small holdings. A fair price would reflect the financial state of the club because any owner needs to either invest heavily in the business or downsize it. The current board and King appear to fundamentally disagree on how the club should be run.
King wants to lead a new round of investment to provide funds for the football department and the "dilapidating infrastructure" ahead of next season's likely SPFL Championship campaign. The board want to cut costs in line with the reduced income streams of the lower divisions. For investment, King and others would want influence on how their money is spent, so this is, at its root, a question of who runs Rangers and what kind of club it becomes. King has no desire to bankroll Rangers - he lost £20m under Sir David Murray's stewardship - but wants to lead like-minded fans with money to invest in return for being part of the club's future.
"Such a soft investment will only come from a fan-based group that regard their return as winning trophies in the top flight," he said. "I have been such an investor and want to be so again. I would like to lead a fan-based initiative to acquire an influential shareholding in the club."
Rangers fans have bought season tickets in remarkable numbers during the last two seasons, despite concerns about the way the club was being run by Green then Craig Mather. The current directors are all new, although Sandy Easdale and James Easdale, the RIFC director, had a share purchase agreement with Green - that does not appear to have been concluded - and at last year's agm represented the same shareholders who were behind Green.
Yet with no money left from two tranches of season ticket money - around £16m - and the £22m raised when RIFC were launched on the Alternative Investment Market in December 2012, some fans remain sceptical. The interim financial results due next month are likely to show a drop in losses, but it may be that fans will want to gather behind King and push for fundamental change out of deep-seated anxieties.
"The fans have no proper insight into the owners of the club and who represents which shareholders on the board," King said. "What is known is that the current board members have a very minor stake in the club. Rangers have also developed an extremely un-Rangers like culture of 'turning on their own'. It is not in Rangers culture to have spin-doctors that feed information to the media in an attempt to damage our own players, management, potential investors, and supporters. Much of what has been fed to the media is clearly untrue or exaggerated."
There ought to be no issues with King being considered suitable for a position on the board of an AIM-listed company when the South African Revenue Service believe King to be fit and proper for such a role. King would have to explain his actions while on the board of Rangers under Craig Whyte, but he is confident the Scottish Football Association would accept his case.
It was already clear that season ticket sales might be affected by discontent amongst the fan base. By highlighting the influence of supporters, King has empowered them to act.
"Will the board provide legally binding assurances that the club is a going concern and has sufficient funds and/or facilities in place for the 2014/15 season?" King asked.
"Will the board undertake that none of the proceeds from season ticket sales will be used to settle any financial obligation that arose prior to receipt of the season ticket monies?
"Will the board confirm that the club assets continue to be unencumbered? Will the board explain its previous statements that the club had sufficient cash resources to last until the end of the season?
"At this critical juncture, the fans control the funding that the board are relying on. How we proceed will determine our club's future."
Rangers issued a brief response to King's statement: "The board notes Mr King's comments with concern as they are potentially destabilising and damaging to Rangers Football Club.

Revlon ColorStay Gel Envy Longwear Nail Enamel Reviews
LOVE!!!!Super impressed with this nail polish. Not streaky at all and the watery consistency makes it easy to paint. It's not opaque on the first coat but you will need a second coat. This is the closest nail polish that have come close to a gel-like nail finish without the LED light for me. I have not had any other polishes that creates the same finish as this. It stays on super long and doesn't chip easily at all. Dries fast too. Must get more colors!!! — 1 year, 11 months agobeautypoet101 | 581 reviews

LONG LASTING AND EASY TO REMOVEOk. I must say that first off many nail enamels cant stand up to how tough I can be on my fingernails. But this particular nail polish stood up to me sanding and painting. Granted I wore work gloves with the sanding. However many other enamels would have at least chipped. For 2 days past the sanding and re-sanding the polish stayed in it's place. It was only when I started painting that I removed ...read morethe nail polish because of paint. I've used it a few other times and was able to get long wear from it but it wasn't until my DIY project that I realized just how durable this nail polish is. Additionally it's easy to remove with regular nail polish remover!!!! And I use acetone free remover. — 1 year, 9 months agoMzWayne | 74 reviews

I will go so far to add a little. I think every woman alone at night has the right to drive to a more populated area before pulling over for someone she KNOWS is a cop. The more susceptiple(spelling?) ones are hookers, strippers, and the like. There have been many documented caes of uniformed officers taking advantage of these women(or other women). I am a man, so I can't understand these things or I should say fears like a woman can. That being said, every American has the right to feel safe. Let's face it, there are some people in some parts of society's ranks that are victimized more than others and that "turn the green lights on" for predatory males. Many times the predators prey on all types of women anyways. If you have any doubts, play it safe.
PS(and on a side note/slight tangent): Being an adult with children, this is what scares me with predators. We all know they are out there, and they know when they can make their move. I don't really even like to talk about it.
PPS - Those guys(impersonators in Colorado) from my earlier posting in this thread with the news story. They had probably been seeking a woman. After ending up with a man, they were trying to decide what to do(robbery? car theft?). Either way it is speculation, but a woman might not have been that lucky.

US's 'difficult choices' over arming Syrian rebels
The United States is stepping up its direct military support for the Syrian opposition after saying it's confident that the Assad regime has used chemical weapons against its own people. The White House says that up to 150 people have been killed in the attacks. A spokesman said the deployment of chemical weapons had crossed "clear red lines''.
PJ Crowley, who served as Mr Obama's assistant secretary of state for two years, told the Today programme that there would have to be a lot of consideration before military support is given to the rebels.
"Will the weapons stay in the right hands? and will the weapons stay in Syria?" he asked.
"So some very difficult choices with regard to anti-armour weaponry or ground to air weaponry that could neutralise the Syrian air advantage but the same time could migrate somewhere and threaten civilian aviation. So these will be difficult calculations the the administration will make."

F1 Fanatic - IndyCar
This topic contains 17 replies, has 7 voices, and was last updated by SP 3 years, 2 months ago.
IndyCar goes to the "tricky triangle" this weekend!. One of my favourite ovals of them all. Really looking forward to this.
Ryan Hunter-Reay will be looking to win the second part of the Triple Crown they have going on nowadays.
Potentially a pivotal race. It certainly was for Scott Dixon last year, and there's even more potential for this to be a crucial race with double points on offer. I'm looking forward to this one, it's one of the best oval circuits, IMO.
I do enjoy IndyCar's mix of ovals and this is a particularly curious one. Looking forward to this weekend's race, hope it stays dry.
It was also a turning point for Ganassi (they had a podium sweep last year). Speaking of which, I'd like to see them back in the mix for a race win.
Will Power and several other drivers broke the lap record in practice (http://www.imscdn.com/indycar_media/documents/2014-07-05/POC%20indycar-results-pcomb.pdf). The current best is 223.348mph, it may be beaten again in qualifying.
Montoya on pole.
..and he wins. Quite a dramatic final stint, especially that 5\6-wide restart.
Juan had been looking good all year, but I hadn't imagined he'd win one just yet. I really do need to find me a way to watch Indycar..
@npf1 The best online way IMO is Justin TV, on a channel by someone called "besweet".
JPM wins, finally \m/
Good to see Montoya take a win, though it wasn't the most thrilling race of the year.
Losing the endplate off his front wing didn't seem to affect his car at all. It does rather lend credence to the view that these cars have got too much downforce for their power.
I don't think that end plate would do much to be honest. It may make there air flow 'cleaner' around the tyre but I wouldn't expect a substantial downforce lost because of it.
Final two laps-
Also, good to see Bob Varsha in the commentary team.

A Maury County firefighter responded to a massive blaze at his childhood home Sunday afternoon.
Before arriving to the fully engulfed fire, Will Craft said he knew the fire would be tough to battle since the nearest hydrant to the home is nearly 1/3 of a mile away on Katie Lane .
After laying 1,500 feet of hose to battle the fire, crews said it took them seven to 10 minutes to knock it out.
"Time just sort of slows down," Columbia fire captain Chris Cummins said. "You can't really judge time."
Investigators have since determined the fire was accidental and sparked in a front room near a Christmas tree.
Craft said he is overwhelmed by the kindness of the community immediately following the fire.
"I want to thank the citizens of Columbia and Maury County for all the calls, texts, and prayers for the recent loss of my family's home," he said.
Craft's parents and pets all escaped without harm.

Just like women, men can suffer from breast cancer, or it could be a cyst of some sort! on! Any Suggestions here?
Breast lumps occur when there is a protuberance or swelling in the breast. If the tumorous breast lump is large, or has attached to the muscles in your chest wall, your doctor may recommend What to Look for in Male Breast Cancer Source:http://www.ehow.com/about_5057090_breast-lump-treatment.html
A 22-year-old man came to the clinic requesting excision of a chest wall lump. He had been well and denied any trauma, foreign travel, or eating raw pork.
See a rodent vet as soon as possible. http://www.rmca.org/Vets/ has a list of good rodent vets. The mulp can be a tumor or an abcess or something else, but only a vet can tell you what exactly and how to treat it.

A defense attorney said Thursday that child molestation accusations levied against his client, a fire captain who lives in San Marcos, were false claims made by a "disgruntled" teenager.
The defendant, Raul Licon Jr., 38, pleaded not guilty March 8 to six counts related to child molestation, including two counts of lewd acts with a child 14 to 15 years old, according to authorities.
Defense attorney Richard Layon said Thursday the "disgruntled" teenager made the accusations early last fall after an argument with Licon, a captain with the Barona Fire Protection District.
According to a search warrant affidavit on file at the Vista Courthouse, the teenage accuser said the molestation started in September 2009 and lasted for about two years.
The distraught teenager told a friend about the situation, according to the warrant affidavit. The friend urged the teen to come forward, fearing the teen was suicidal, the document states.
The teen told investigators specifically where some of the acts had occurred, and investigators found Licon's DNA in semen on a carpet at one of those sites ---- Licon's garage, according to the affidavit.
"I've read the search warrant, and I know at first blush it contains some troubling allegations, but things aren't always what they seem," said Layon, Licon's attorney.
For example, the carpet in the garage was the old carpet from Licon's bedroom, so finding Licon's DNA was not surprising, Layon said.
"There is a strong odor of fish emanating from the prosecution case," Layon said, "and the closer you look, the more odoriferous it becomes."
The affidavit states that the teenager told investigators in February that he wanted to pursue the case against Licon because "I'm tired of being called a liar."
Licon was arrested at his San Marcos home on Glen Avon Drive earlier this month, and was released from custody after posting $250,000 bond, according to court documents.
Earlier this week, a judge postponed Licon's preliminary hearing until June 13. At such a hearing, a judge determines if prosecutors have presented enough evidence to order the defendant to stand trial.
The defendant has been suspended from his job without pay, pending the outcome of the case, a spokeswoman for the Barona Band of Mission Indians said.

Are You Protected Against The Toxic Economy?
Since the 1970s, the U.S. government has been accumulating debt and printing money at a much faster pace than the economy actually is growing.
Increasing debt would be alright IF the economy was exponentially growing to pay it off. But our economy can't keep up with the pace of the debt and money printing as the government takes measures to pay for resources that continue to become more expensive as supply diminishes.
Some economists were surprised last week by a report showing that the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) shrank in the fourth quarter, quick to write it off as a result of decreased defense spending, and focusing on the year GDP growth rate of 2.2% for 2012. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter if the economy is shrinking at 0.1% or growing at 2% or 3%. However you spin these numbers it, it's just not enough.
The bottom line is, we never actually got out of the last recession and when the government is borrowing 8% to 10% of GDP, and GDP is growing at 2% to 3%…something is a miss. In all actuality, the real economy could be shrinking by 5%–7%!
It's no wonder the Fed is trying to spark the economy with quantitative easing, but the odds of a shock to our fragile, debt-laden systems are a lot higher over time than the odds of the Fed's plan actually succeeding in spawning significant growth.
So what can you do to protect against this potential shock to the economic system? BUY GOLD!
Since 2000, gold prices have increased over 500 percent while the value of the dollar has continued to suffer as a result of government action and inflation. Call Capital Gold Group at (800) 510-9594 today to find out how you can add precious metals to your portfolio!

The NASPAA P.A. Announcers' Online Certification Course is the first of its kind for sports public address announcers and the individuals who hire and assign P.A. announcers. The comprehensive course, presented via streaming video, is approximately 2 hours and 16 minutes in length. The course is taught by Mike McCartney, Stadium Announcer for the Kansas City Royals; Jeff Kurtz, the voice of the Kent State University Golden Flashes; and Mark Mills, a championship announcer for the Missouri State High School Activities Association and former University of Missouri men's basketball P.A. announcer. Each instructor has more than 25 years of announcing experience. Produced in studio by the University of Missouri-Kansas City, the course is interactive, entertaining and informative.
Rounding out the course is a 100-question online exam. Approximately 25% of the questions are announcements. Upon listening to the announcements, individuals taking the exam will be required to determine if the announcements are proper or correct. As a question is answered, the individual taking the exam will receive immediate feedback as to whether the answer he/she provided is correct. I f the individual is not able to provide the correct answer on a subsequent attempt, the proper answer will be provided. Remediation is part of the course, meaning that if the individual taking the course does not provide the correct answer on his/her last attempt, the individual will be taken to the segment in the course instruction where the answer appears. Everyone who takes the course will pass and receive NASPAA Certification.
"When the NASPAA approached the NFHS about online learning and serving as a resource for revising the course, we gladly accepted the invitation. While the course is ideal for all P.A. announcers, we would highly recommend that ALL high school P.A. announcers take the course and become certified. In light of the fact that certification has been available to coaches, athletic administrators and to athletic trainers just to mention a few, we could not be more pleased that P.A. announcers now have the same professional development opportunity. The credibility that goes with being certified by the national association (NASPAA) is of the utmost importance, which is why we are proud to recommend the NASPAA P.A. Announcers' Online Certification Course." Dan Schuster, NFHS Director of Coach Education
"Because the NFHS Online Learning Center is one of the best resources for courses and certification, the NASPAA benefitted immensely from its guidance and expertise. Not only will the course utilize state of the art technology, but it will also feature the latest online learning techniques. The beauty of the course is that it fits all levels of announcing--school and non-school. Since P.A. announcers play an important role in helping administer athletic events, questions concerning liability could be raised if the P.A. announcer, by what he or she says or does, contributes to an incident. The course addresses situations to help minimize risk, not only for P.A. announcers, but for the schools and organizations who they are serving. We wish to thank the P.A. announcers, athletic administrators and the state and national associations that contributed to the course. A special thank you goes to the NFHS for taking a special interest in our effort to deliver the most practical course possible about P.A. announcing." Brad Rumble, NASPAA Executive Director
NASPAA Online Certification Course Promo from Bradley Beach on Vimeo.
Upon registering for the course, users will have immediate access. The NASPAA recommends that the users use the same computer to take the course, because the system will only recognize the IP address of that computer. The course was designed so that users could stop anytime, exit the course or turn off their computer and resume where they left off. Being able to resume from the user's last location in the course by attempting to access the course with a different computer or different browser could result in the user's location being lost and having to start over.
After completing the exam and before clicking on "Submit Your Results" to the NASPAA, please take a screenshot of that page, which shows your score, and e-mail it to Brad Rumble, NASPAA Executive Director, at firstname.lastname@example.com. While the NASPAA automatically receives each user's test results, if for some reason a user's test results are not received, the screenshot will serve as verification of the user's score.
"As a professional public address announcer for NASCAR, I thought I knew everything about my trade. NASPAA's CPAA course not only taught me several things about style and delivery but also fan safety and the responsibility of the announcer. This course is a priceless tool for any announcer, on any level, to progress their thinking and approach to our trade."
Russ Wiles, Richmond International Raceway (NASCAR), Moseley, VA
"I enjoyed taking the course. And quite honestly, it gave me some things to think about as a public address announcer. The role that I play in the safety of the fans in attendance, I always think of in terms of thunderstorms, but the other emergency announcements I realize by taking the course that I need to be looking at those as well. (Which is ironic since my day job is as the Emergency Management Director for my county). I liked the variety of experiences that were shared by the presenters in the video. I will say with pride that I am now a CPAA, and encourage those that I meet that want to become a public address announcer to go through the training."
Shayne Morgan, Fort White High School, Lake City, FL
"I have been announcing numerous sporting events for over 10 years. The NASPAA online certification course was a great tool and provided some tips that have already been useful to me up in the press box. It has always been my goal to provide all the fans at events the most professional game experience, and I would recommend the NASPAA certification course to every aspiring announcer and their Athletic Directors."
Jim Hill, Colonial Forge High School, Stafford, VA
"This course provides you with every aspect of what public address announcing has to offer. I personally had no clue on what good protocol is to the negatives it can have. This course nails it!"
Dwight Spencer, Miami Country Day School, Miami, FL
"As a veteran public address announcer with more than 30 years experience, I have learned that you are never too old to learn! The NASPAA online certification course is a perfect example of that old adage. The online course contains a wealth of information that will benefit P.A. announcers who are just getting started or who have been behind the mic for years. The NASPAA is to be commended for providing P.A. announcers of all levels a practical first-class professional development opportunity."

Baby # 5 5/2010 & Baby #6 8/2011 & Baby # 7 2/1013). Cancer Survivor 2011 ( Persistent Malignant Gestational Trophoblastic Disease)
For the last two years, I have been going around and around in my head as to what to do. I have a 2 1/2 year old son, Adam, a one year old daughter and a newborn. I also have a $60,000 a year job that comes with a company car, gas, American Express for lunches and expenses and a phone with unlimited use. In addition, I have the option of home office Fridays where I can generally work from home by phone and computer. I have been with this company for 7 years and it is a position that was made for me. I am a social worker in healthcare and know that this is a "once in a lifetime position". The problem is that this job requires overnight travel and some long days. I have completely lost my desire to work away from my children. We are also lucky in that my husband is able to work Thursday, Friday and Saturday shifts at night from 6-6 and every other Sunday so one of us is always able to be home with the kids and we don't need daycare. He makes about $55,000 and has the option to work a ton of overtime hours and is very willing to do so if I want to stay home and homeschool when the time comes. I go back to work off maternity leave on January 7th. We have decided to try to live off my husbands salary for 6 months and put away my entire income to see if we could make do. If that doesn't work then I thought about becoming a teacher so that my schedule would also coincide with the kids. Here is my question...has anyone else given up a high paying job and what is the dirty (and hopefully good) truth of the situation? Also, if you are a SAHM, please give me the ups and downs too. Thanks so much for any help you can offer.

(WASHINGTON) — Army Staff Sgt. Matthew Sitton knew there was the threat of casualties when he deployed to Afghanistan for his third tour of duty, but he said he was "totally on board with sacrifice for [his] country."
What he didn't agree with, though, was his chain of command, who mandated Sitton's 25-man platoon to take twice-daily patrols through fields littered with explosive devices. The platoon was averaging an amputee a day, Sitton said, and since the patrols didn't have an end goal, he didn't see the point of risking such extreme danger.
Sitton was so concerned with his platoon's safety and morale that in June, he wrote a measured letter to Rep. C.W. Bill Young, R-Fla., who chairs the House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee.
"I feel myself and my soldiers are being put into unnecessary positions where harm and danger are imminent," Sitton wrote in an e-mail. "There is no end state or purpose for the patrols given to us from our higher chain of command, only that we will be out for a certain time standard."
"We are walking around aimlessly through grape rows and compounds that are littered with explosives," he wrote.
On Aug. 2, less than two months after he sent the email, Sitton, 26, was killed by an IED blast. He left behind a wife, a 9-month-old son — and an 81-year-old Congressman with a new perspective on Afghanistan.
Young is the longest-serving Republican member of Congress, and he has continuously voted against troop drawbacks from Afghanistan, or even for setting a timetable for troop withdrawal. But after Sitton's death, Young noted a change of heart.
"I think we should remove ourselves from Afghanistan as quickly as we can," Young told the Tampa Bay Times this week. "I just think we're killing kids that don't need to die."
Young's new position on Afghanistan comes as President Obama's troop drawback plan marks another milestone. Last June, Obama ordered the U.S. military to withdraw 33,000 troops from Afghanistan by the end of this summer, effectively ending the troop "surge" he deployed in 2009. On Friday the last of those troops left Afghanistan; 68,000 American troops remain.
The plan also calls for those American troops to be out of Afghanistan by 2014. Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney supports this timetable, but Young's influential position in the House could mean more GOP support for the drawback.
In a meeting with Tampa Bay Times editors, Young said he's come to a new realization throughout the past three months, as he visited Veterans Administration hospitals and met with veterans about their time in the field.
Sitton's death also played a role, he said. Young said the Army Ranger predicted his own death in that e-mail, adding, "What he said would happen, happened."
Young has served in the House of Representatives since 1970 and is now running for his 22nd term.

Baby Elaina's family warns of snow shoveling scam
Tue, 17 Dec 2013 10:45:00 GMT —
The family of baby Elaina, the toddler who was murdered in east Toledo earlier this year, is sounding the alarm about people trying to profit off her death and the recent weather.
Both sides of her family say they have received reports in recent days about a person offering to shovel peoplesâ?? sidewalks in east Toledo for money. The person then claimed the money would be donated to a baby Elaina fund. However, the family never sanctioned the shoveling for donations, and says whoever is doing this is running a scam.
Baby Elainaâ??s grandfather, Richard Schiewe, says whoever would do this is a â??sick personâ??, and says there will be consequences if they ever are caught. Schiewe plans to contact Toledo Police on Tuesday to file a report on the scam.
Schiewe says if people wish to donate to an official baby Elaina fund, they can go to any Genoa Bank in the area. All funds collected will be given to Elainaâ??s sister, Kylee, when she turns 18.

By Dara Quackenbush, 2012-2013 AWC Austin Chapter President
June 1 is the beginning of the new board year for AWC Austin and every new year is a time of celebration and a time of planning. Recently our new board had its retreat where we spent the day preparing for the new year.
One thing struck me as we went around the room discussing why we each joined AWC Austin – the importance of the relationships we've each developed being part of this organization. Many folks joined the organization for their career but found it gave them so much more.
I am amazed by the caliber of women who offered to serve on the board this year. From senior communicators to young professionals just starting out, these ladies are full of ideas and enthusiasm for AWC Austin. I am honored that each of them are serving with me this year.
At the retreat, the board outlined five key areas we want to focus on this year:
- Membership – we do a great job signing up new members, but we don't always get our new members involved and bring them into the fold. We want to do better with that this year. We also want to be more active in our recruitment, specifically in the area of diversity.
- Website – this year we want to give our website a redesign. Amy Hufford has already volunteered for this project, and we look forward to getting it underway.
- Mentors – We relaunched our mentor program a few years ago and this year we will look at ways to enhance it. We have members, as well as students from UT and Texas State student chapters, who are looking for mentors. If you are interested in becoming a mentor, please complete our mentor volunteer form and we'll be in touch.
- Development – This year AWC Austin awarded $9,000 in scholarships. If we want to continue awarding this amount, and if we want to continue bringing in great speakers for Banner Brunch and Get Smart, we need to look at how we are raising money.
- Programs – Our monthly luncheons are a great way to network and learn and it's one of our best recruiting tools. We've had some great programs in the past because it has always been one of our key focuses.
To accomplish our five goals, the board needs your help. One of the best ways to get involved and build the great relationships AWC Austin offers is by volunteering. We are building a new volunteer database where you can sign up to become a volunteer. Please look for details to come. In the meantime, you can email firstname.lastname@example.com to volunteer.
I'm looking forward to serving you this year. If there is anything I can do for you, please feel free to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

- Extended filing date- Individual income taxpayers will have until April 18, 2011, to file returns, extensions and payments normally due on April 15. The extension is to accommodate Emancipation Day, a legal holiday in the District of Columbia. For details on the extension click here.
- Gather all your income and tax documents before you file- Filing before you receive all W-2s and 1099s often leads to errors that require you to file amended returns once you have the correct information. Employers are required to mail W-2s and other documents by Jan.31.
- File electronically and request direct deposit for refunds-This is the most convenient, accurate and the fastest way to file your taxes. Electronic filing will identify common math errors and direct deposit to your bank account means you get your money sooner. Some taxpayers may qualify for free or low-cost electronic filing. To find out how to e-file and if you are eligible for low-cost filing click here.
- File electronic federal and state returns at the same time-Failure to file both returns at the same time could require taxpayers to amend North Carolina returns if the IRS detects any errors with their federal return.
- Check your address-Every year, thousands of refund checks are returned to the Department of Revenue because of incorrect addresses, and the law forbids the forwarding of those checks. Carefully check the mailing address you provide on your return.
- Do not file photocopies of tax forms-Use pre-printed or downloaded forms from the department's website. Photocopies may not scan correctly and could cause delays in processing your return. Taxpayers can request forms online at www.dornc.com/request, by downloading forms at www.dornc.com/downloads/individual.html or by calling 1-877-252-3052.
- Make checks payable to the N.C. Department of Revenue if you owe state taxes-Some taxpayers mistakenly send checks made out to the Internal Revenue Service for their state taxes. Payments may also be made on-line through our secure website. Just visit www.dornc.com and click on Electronic Services for Individuals.
- File on time regardless of ability to pay-Make sure you file on-time to avoid the automatic failure-to-file penalty of five percent per month, up to a maximum of 25% of what you owe in state taxes. You are better off filing your taxes by the April 18 deadline and contacting the department at 1-877-252-3052 to arrange a payment plan if you cannot pay all at once.
- Check to see if you qualify for common credits, deductions or exemptions-You could qualify for popular credits such as the Earned Income Tax Credit both federally and with the state. Check your eligibility here. Some severance pay may also be exempt if you were laid off from your job.
- Check your eligibility for free or low-cost filing-Taxpayers with low-to moderate- incomes may qualify for free tax preparation through the Volunteer Tax Assistance Program. To locate the nearest VITA site, call 1-800-906-9887 or visit the IRS website. Others may qualify for free or low-cost electronic filing options. Check our website www.dornc.com/electronic/e-file.html for more information.

The Daily Cute: Get Cozy
– 0 Comments
I used to think there were only two things that separated us from the animals: a desire to wrap ourselves up in blankets and sleep in on a cold morning, and the inexplicable ability to recall all of the lyrics to the Barenaked Ladies song "One Week." As these comfort-seeking snoozers prove, "One Week" is all that truly stands between us. (Prove me wrong, parrots. Prove me wrong.)

Clark Food and Wine Company Revitalized Their Burger, But Is It Any Better?
Clark Food and Wine's new double cheeseburger with American cheese ($12)
Nick Rallo
This burger was different a couple of years ago. In 2014, I stopped into Clark Food and Wine, then a recent addition to the ever-changing Greenville restaurant bustle, and had an interesting burger. A single grilled patty, topped with a disc of stained-glass crispy speck and house jardinera. It's probably the first time I've had pickled carrots and cauliflower on a burger, and, surprisingly, it wasn't weird. It definitely wasn't simple. The patty was medium rare, but it was missing out on that ecstatic flavor of fire from the grill.
Today, their burger has changed. It's going around these days: Upscale cheeseburgers that call up memories of simple cheeseburgers. Gone is that crispy, hammy speck and the pickled vegetables. Clark's burger is now two grilled patties topped with American cheese. Whirls of iceberg lettuce, enjoying a bath of their "sloppy sauce," rest underneath the patties. Two thick pickle discs, and pink pickled onion like fine strings, are pinned on top of each other over the soft bun. It has a more familiar look.
So, is it always better to do simple, old-fashioned cheeseburgers? My favorite burgers on the planet are simple cheeseburgers with melted cheese (American always works), pickle and finely-sheared onion, but not every burger has to feel the same. A burger isn't made great only by being simple. The greatness comes in the impeccable attention to simple details.
The thin patties are now packed with good, smoky char from the grill, but it needs that hard sear you'd want in a double cheeseburger. Bunches of iceberg lettuce feels excessive beneath the patties. The "sloppy sauce" is tangy and memorable, but it isn't a substitute for stupendous meat juices.
Several bites in, I'm feeling like something's missing, like a guitar with a couple of strings out of tune. I untangle a few pickled onions and put them below the patties. It adds a puckering crunch. The fries are delicious.
It makes sense to revitalize the look and feel of a cheeseburger based on what works. If it ain't broke, and such. But Clark Food and Wine's burger still feels like it's reaching.

Even with your gall bladder removed you can still get a stone stuck in the remaining duct. This requires a special imaging to be done to detect this an ultrasound will not see this. If that is the case then surgery is a possibility to remove it.
ANother possibility would be a peptic ulcer that is referring pain to the right side. This would need treatment with medication.
Both situations require and evaluation by your provider and I encourage you to see your provider without delay and both situations can worsen.

Colorado breeders to change confinement methods
Dec 28, 2010
Denver, Colo. -- Dog breeding facilities must now use coated wire for enclosures, according to a new law set out by the Colorado's Department of Agriculture.
The rule, an amendment to the Dog Breeder Facility Regulations, modifies the Animal Enclosure Standards and requires that primary dog enclosures must be made of coated wire.
The amended rules also address temperature control and outdoor shelters, isolation requirements for dogs with communicable diseases, exercise requirements, sanitation requirements and identification protocols.
The new rules were approved Nov. 10 and became effective Nov 30.

For decades, the Coin Laundry has served the Plaza District surrounding neighborhoods. Learn more
For decades, the Coin Laundry has served the Plaza District surrounding neighborhoods. With the youngest son working his way through college, and the elderly father too tired to run the operation, the family put the business up for sale. Knowing the building would be in good hands, the family sold Friendly Coin Laundry to Sweet Sixteenth LLC, a new group devoted to investing in Plaza District's continued revitalization.
The building includes 1500 sq ft of currently open space, and the 1500 sq ft vacant lot directly west. We are looking for creative ideas for the development of the space which will serve the neighborhood and Plaza District well. The building's neighbors include Lyric Theatre, PhotoArt Studios and Urban Wineworks, and we are looking for a tenant that will energize and complement the existing business mix.
The time is right for the Plaza District. The momentum of our grassroots revitalization is taking off, and the energy of our progress is contagious. Fowler Volkswagen of Norman has been a catalyst behind much of that progress, and they're not finished yet. Fowler VW is offering up to $1250 in rent support (up to the first 6 months) to the tenant selected by the developer. With this support, Fowler VW is both growing local business and spurring Plaza District progress. So, here's your chance to be a part of the Plaza District Dream Team. Dream big, dream serious, or if you're interested, submit your local business. We would love our community's input on making this place, a place you want to be.

When we last left slight anointer Peter King, he was polishing his quarter-pole and telling you about how great it is to watch Wisconsin football games live in person… from your Manhattan hotel suite. He was also lamenting the dearth of Tom Brady games played in the Bay Area (WEIRD!), and telling you everything you need to know about the sort of reality fiction about the real world of pro football. Call it 45.9% real.
So what about this week? Does that "Pan Am" show still look good? Will Albert Pujols have a future place at the Red Sox history table of historicalness? And isn't this such a busy time for death?! READ ON. Fun with Peter King is apropos of nothing, apropos of everything, AND apropos of butterscotch.
This is one of those where-to-begin Mondays.
Do I start with baseball, or do I start with the KRAYZEE itinerary that found me taking a 5-minute puddle jumper from Minneapolis to St. Paul? Curious why I took a flight that short? TELL YOU IN A FEW GRAFS, JON.
I could begin with Al…
Al Davis, you're LESS THAN ALIVE! Fear not, Oakland. I understand your loss, BECAUSE I AM A RED SOX FAN. I know what it's like to love and lose, perhaps more than you'll ever know. Because I'm a Sox fan. SOXY SOX SOX THE WORST THING ABOUT AL DAVIS DYING IS THAT JOHN LACKEY FAILED TO STOP IT.
Or with Tim Tebow … he may not be great, but he sure is fun to watch…
He may not be great, but if I'm the Broncos, I sit back, watch them lose every game by five points, and pop the Illy.
I wrote about the death of 82-year-old Al Davis on Saturday. I would bet it's the only Davis remembrance piece of the weekend that began with a story about women's basketball.
There's a reason for that, Peter.
"Al was the football version of George Steinbrenner," the owner who was probably closest to Davis in the last few years, Jerry Jones, told me Saturday.
I love that Jerry thinks that's a compliment. "He was our version of a convicted felon who most everyone agrees was a paranoid asshole! I'M SO PROUD TO FOLLOW IN HIS SCABBY FOOTSTEPS YEEEEEEEEEEEEHAW!"
But Davis was more than that. He was part Howard Hughes, part Steve Jobs, part Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis.
He was also part Don Haskins, part Bobby Heenan, part Red Auerbach, part craisin, part Thomas Edison, part Stalin, part potato, BUT ALL RAIDER.
He told no one about any of the health problems that made his life come crashing down.
Whoa wait, you're telling me AL DAVIS was having health problems leading up to his death? But he seemed so fresh and vital!
"Has anyone heard the cause of death?" a good friend of his asked Sunday.
Uh… being 5,000 years old and looking like he was slowly being eaten alive by feral pigs?
"He'd never tell me exactly what was wrong with him."
Holy shit, really? You should have looked up "skin falling off" on WebMD.
He once told me the only thing he couldn't dominate was death.
Or the AFC West, apparently.
The Niners are kids again.
They're like little queer Favres out there!
When (Tim) Tebow came in the game Sunday at halftime against San Diego — the Broncos trailed 23-10 — it was to see if he could give the team a spark.
I have never heard the word "Spark" used as much as I heard it yesterday. Tebow gave them a spark. The Broncos needed a spark! Tim Tebow won't drink Sparks because it makes God cry! TIM TEBOW HAS JESUSSPARKS COMING OUT OF HIS PALMS.
In one half of football, the Broncos began to win back the city. The Tebow lovers got a taste of their hero.
"Mmmmmm… ohhhhhhh… Tastes like Gatorade mixed with foreskin blood!"
One play in the 31-24 loss to Buffalo illustrated (the Eagles loss) perfectly. I had to watch the play over and over in the NBC viewing room, sitting next to Tony Dungy, who was trying to figure it out too.
I was sitting right next to the legendary Tony Dungy! Who is a man of high standing in the world! Imagine having direct access to such a gifted football mind! I asked him how the play related to the 2011 Red Sox collapse.
Revis vs. Welker: A draw. Sort of.
Call it a half-tie.
3. New England (4-1). Wes Welker, five catches for 126 yards. I'm beginning to think we just might discuss him in the Hall of Fame room someday.
OH GOD FUCK YOU EIGHTY TIMES WITH A NAIL GUN. DESERVEDLY. I'm beginning to formulate the possible idea that perhaps we'd entertain the notion of maybe one day possibly bringing this fine young man to our history table, PERHAPS. That's ow-ah Welkah! CALL HIM THE GRITUATION!!!!
6. Buffalo (4-1). At some point, we've got to stop putting asterisks on the Bills' wins.
Who was putting asterisks on their wins? Weren't you the one who kept New England above them after the Bills housed them?
It was another good day at the office for The Little Team That Could.
PUKE. Don't tell people you need to stop putting asterisks on the Bills' wins and then call them the fucking Little Team That Could. "Hey folks, we better start treating the Bills like a real team. OMG SO CUTE HOW THEY BEAT PHILLY! WHO'S A GOOD LITTLE TEAM?"
It's hard to feel more pressure than the Chiefs were feeling at 0-4…
I know! Especially since they were never 0-4.
If you're around 30, and you're reading this, you're probably a big NFL fan.
Or you like coffee. Or baseball. Or trees. Or riding trains. Or getting shit comped for free at the Conrad hotel in Indy. MOST HUMANE HOTEL IN THE WORLD.
Now the question is: Has Al Davis laid the groundwork for a new generation of Raider greatness?
Maybe? Possibly? Kinda sorta?
Too early to tell
DAMMIT! Didn't have that one on my "Peter King Equivocation Bingo" card.
"Do your job" is a statement Bill Belichick, via multiple NFL Films mikings, has made a part of the vernacular in New England.
"Do your job" is something Bill Parcells used to say all the time coaching the Giants.
PARCELLS: Do you job, you filthy Japs!
GIANTS PLAYER: Sir, we're not Japanese.
PARCELLS: You could be sneaky Japs disguised as a football team!
So the next time you hear Belichick say that statement, know that it had its birth with Al Davis.
"Blah! Blah! Do you job, or I vill rehirah you six years from now! BLAH BLAH! I have birthed a vinning slogan!"
It's with heavy hearts that my wife and I leave Boston after 32 very enjoyable months in the city's South End.
NO!!! YOU CAN'T GO!!! The streets are so clean there!
We're moving to Manhattan.
The work's there, and rather than commute back and forth on the train every Friday and Monday for nearly half the year…
And who needs to suffer through so many luxury Acela trips, where the beer makes one so sleepy?
…we just figured it'd be smarter for us to be located where most of my job takes place.
PETER, THREE YEARS AGO: Honey, let's move to Boston! It'll be so close to work!
PETER, THREE YEARS LATER: Huh. Seems New York is farther away from Boston than I had originally planned. The road signs LIED to me!
Five things we'll miss:
Really? We're doing this? Can we please get this man a Facebook account?
Walking 28 minutes to Fenway Park …
Our neighbors who became good friends in the building at the corner of Shawmut and Waltham … The South End restaurants (Picco in particular).
But that latte needs work, Picco. You're not the… picco… my favorite coffee shops!
I remember when we moved there Tom Brady told me, "You'll love the restaurants there. They're incredible."
"Tom, you know any good restaurants for us to eat at? Oh, and maybe we should talk football for, like, three seconds. WHATEVER."
He was right.
"Go to Picco, Peter. Great place to dump your baby momma."
… Running along the Charles River last year with my half-marathonmeister, Roberto Portocarrero …
If only all of us could have an Italian half-marathonmeister. "Hey-a Peter! Yousa need to stop-a running into the Starbucks-a!"
Walking everywhere in a tremendously walkable city.
Foot-friendliness, Miami. You should work on it.
The one thing we really got used to was going two and three weeks without driving, a culture shock after New Jersey suburban life.
Oh, we never drive anywhere anymore! We simply glide along on our own humblebrags! CALL US WES WALKAHHHH!!!
Walking, particularly in a tremendous neighborhood like the South End, was a good leisure activity in itself.
Who knew there were benefits to putting one foot in front of the other? You learn something new every year, people.
Five things we won't miss: Hmmmm. There aren't five.
The problem with Boston is that it's too perfect!
We won't miss the wind
(surprisingly strong year-'round)
It's a city in the far northeast situated on a goddamn ocean. What climate were you expecting? Did your Hertz rental car tell you something different?
We won't miss the litter
You said the streets were clean! YOU LIE!
…though I have a feeling we'll be heading into a new era of litter in New York
"God, can you believe how these New Yorker just keep throwing out their flaming bags of shit on my doorstep? So thoughtless. Better just stamp it out again."
… The fact that April 10 felt like March 3 in the world we were used to …
Who knew it got colder as you ventured farther north?
But I can't think of much else.
Apart from the fact that it's cold and windy and dirty, I can't find anything wrong with it!
Boston was a terrific time in our lives. You've got a great place, Mayor Menino.
Keep it up, Menino! Maybe I'll name my first grandchild Meninja, after you!
We'll be back early and often. I'm not giving up the family Red Sox tickets; I just won't go as much.
Well, thank God for THAT. This column wouldn't be the same without rambling on about the fucking Red Sox for nine years.
I always wondered what it would be to live in the place that was The Big city when I was a kid growing up in Connecticut, and now, happily, I've found out.
Explosively, you lived there.
g. Asante Samuel. Tackle somebody!
Big Ben. Rape somebody!
Michael Vick. Chaosville somebody!
Ed Reed. Sign these gloves for somebody!
h. Pink socks on the Giants. Pink gloves, okay. Pink cleats, I guess. But long pink socks with the blue uniform? Yeccccch. What's next? Full pink uniforms?
Omigod, then that would make the Giants GAY! In other news, OMG YOU GUYS! TONY ROMO SENT ME A TEXT!
I think ESPN might get the best rating in years tonight for Chicago-Detroit, and I hope for the network's sake it can be like the squirrel gathering acorns for the winter.
ESPN Exec: Quick! Hoard all the nuts you can! Bring me Cowherd, and Hoge, and Reilly, and Berman, and Bayless, and Kornheiser, and Simmons, and Stephen A., and Wojosfgkjhewrgwpegiuhdski, and Steve Phillips, and Al Davis' corpse for studio work!
I think, by the way, that I'll spend three sentences (and that might be too much)…
Indeed, this is not Sox-worthy content.
…on that idiot Hank Williams, who was rightfully fired by ESPN for comparing Barack Obama and John Boehner playing golf to Adolf "Hitler playing golf with [Benjamin] Netanyahu." Then the apparently math-challenged Williams said Obama and Joe Biden were the Three Stooges.
I know! What an ass. Williams is nearly as math challenged as… well, as Peter King!
(scrolls back in the column)
(Hue) Jackson made a clutch call with 11 minutes left in the game, protecting a 22-17 lead. On fourth-and-three from the Oakland 37, he eschewed the punt. Gutsy call… This one was huge in the outcome. The Raiders' Rock Cartwright ran for 35 yards, setting up Janikowski's fourth field goal of the game and a 25-20 lead.
Or a 25-17 lead, if you excel at both math and remembering shit.
5. I think the NFL would fall apart without me.
I swear there's no context around this particular item. There's no explanation as to why the NFL would fall apart without Peter, though I assume many cookies would go unfetched, which in turn would cause a total system meltdown.
Honestly, I think an intern threw this in here just to make Peter look like a dipshit.
UPDATE: This was reference to Drew Rosenhaus' "60 Minutes" piece last night. Looks like I'm the one who's out of touch. I'D WATCH 60 MINUTES IF IT HAD MORE FUNKHAUSER.
Gotta love The Onion.
"Area Dipshit Steals Foul Ball From Child."
I guess my tribute to Jobs…
No one deserves a sort-of eulogy like Steve Jobs did. Surely, his innovations demand your very best half-assed memorial.
…would be that I don't know how I'd do my job without my MacBook Pro.
"A PC? But how could I write and surf the Internet with this?!"
Friday night, on a train with no power outlets…
A train with NO power outlets? Where was this train heading? DACHAU?! Unacceptable.
I fired up the MacBook, took out my Verizon modem, turned it on and Tweeted and wrote a couple of emails for a project I'm working on. The guy sitting next to me was emailing on his iPhone while listening (too loudly) to songs on his iPod.
"Would you turn that down? I can't hear myself thinking what I think I think!"
It's a Steve Jobs world.
Seriously, you could have answered emails and tweeted with a PC. Or you could have shit in your hand and smeared it all over the train window.
The death of Al Davis prevented me from getting to Jeff Pearlman's book about Walter Payton. This is a bad week for me coming up work-wise…
I have six minor league games to attend AND dinner out with Donnie Brasco!
I've still missed every episode of "The Office" this year.
But what of "Pan Am"? I must know!
Darn it! Missed Elvis Costello the other night in Montclair.
NOOOOOOO! You could have heard his greatest hit, "A Good Year For The Roses, MAYBE".
Seattle, you should know that the baristas at the 51st and Madison Starbucks are superb, particularly the store-openers at 5:30 on Sunday and Monday mornings.
Pretty amazing that there'd be a Starbucks in that remote part of the world.
Taking your pumpkin recommendations. Been beerless for a few days, but I'll be trying a few pumpkin varietals in the coming days.
Pumpkin! Just the spark this beer needs!
