New South Wales Waratahs call in the cavalry for trial match against Crusaders in Sydney
- The Daily Telegraph
- February 13, 2013
New South Wales Waratahs will deploy an uncapped rookie and an office worker to do battle with All Blacks superstar Dan Carter in their final trial on Thursday night.
Injuries to Berrick Barnes and Bernard Foley have forced Tahs coach Michael Cheika to name young five-eighth Ben Volavola in his starting side to play the star-studded Crusaders at Allianz Stadium.
Volavola, 22, is only in his first pre-season after winning a contract through his club form for Souths last year.
His back-up on Thursday night has more experience but a fraction of the fitness after only linking up with the Tahs on Tuesday. Cheika has called in former Western Force and Melbourne Rebels No.10 Jimmy Hilgendorf as injury cover, and is set to play him off the bench.
Hilgendorf, 30, retired from Melbourne at the end of last year and, after a stint in teaching, was sitting in his office working in IMG Sports Management on Monday when Cheika called him.
"He's just working and being a normal guy, like everybody else," Cheika said.
"If he is feeling comfortable with it we'll give him a game on Thursday. It would be a big ask because I would say he hasn't done a lot of training."
With Sam Lane set to relinquish his spot in the side, Cheika said Hilgendorf could end up joining NSW's extended squad.
After being impressed with his trial form, Cheika isn't worried about throwing Volavola in against a Crusaders side boasting 11 All Blacks; including Carter, Kieran Read and Israel Dagg.
"It'll be great," Cheika said.

"I'm not worried about it at all. I have been very impressed by him."
The Waratahs will also be without Rob Horne - who is set to miss the opening month of Super Rugby with a hamstring injury - and wings Drew Mitchell (calf) and Peter Betham (ankle).
Barnes and Foley are expected to be fit for the Waratahs' opening round next week in Brisbane.
Follow the action. Like Fox Sports.

Torenia Plants |
Torenia Plants will add unique color and texture to your flower gardens. These heat-resistant plants continue to flower, even in the toughest conditions, in hues ranging from brightest yellow to deepest, velvety purple. They have a slow-growing mounding habit that makes them ideal for hanging baskets and containers, but also as a border or specimen plant. A relative to the snapdragon, Torenia, pronounced tor-EE-nee-ah, is also called the Wishbone Flower. It thrives in moisture and humidity, but will normally prefer at least partial shade in areas with extremely hot summers. A prolific bloomer, Torenia will bloom all summer and through the fall, right up until the first frost. Many gardeners grow Torenia in pots so they can be brought indoors for household color throughout the late fall and winter. Read about our Torenia plant guarantee on our Satisfaction page. |

Stop pretending you don't have a hearing loss!
Discover how digital hearing aids from The Speech & Hearing Center of Chattanooga can help you hear and understand more clearly without making you feel older than you are!
Are you wondering if you have a hearing loss? Or do you already know that you do, but don't want to admit it! Like millions of other Americans, chances are you are suffering from some level of hearing loss if you:
- Think other people sound as if they are mumbling
- Have difficulty hearing in noisy situations
- Have ringing in your ears
- Feel stressed from struggling to understand what people are saying
- Feel annoyed with others because you can't understand what they are saying
- Have a family history of hearing loss
- Have been exposed to very loud noises...for a long period of time or a one-time exposure to an extreemely loud, explosive noise.
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you, a friend or a family member may be suffering from hearing loss. The good news is there is someone who understands your concerns, someone who can answer all your questions and someone who can offer solutions to your specific needs.
Audiologists are professionals who specialize in evaluating and treating people with hearing loss. They have extensive training and skills to evaluate the hearing of adults, infants, and children of all ages. Audiologists also conduct a wide variety of tests to determine the exact nature of an individual's hearing problem and present a number of treatment options to patients with hearing impairment. Our Audiologists are doctorate level certified and are state and nationally licensed by the American Speech-Language Hearing Association (ASHA).
We offer free hearing test for children birth to five years.

I don't know if you remember the news story about a London boy, who became a father at age 12. Unfortunately, the story doesn't end there. Oh no, Marge, sit down and let me tell ya; it gets better. Apparently, the boy, (whom the media has identified in the article, but out of courtesy, I won't identify here), made a discovery that I'm sure will not settle well with him at all. His girlfriend is the town pincushion, and he's not the father after all. So, now this boy has had three harsh lessons with this experience:
- He found out his girlfriend is a major slut.
- He's been outed by the media for having underaged, pre-marital sex.
- His noble act of taking care of his and his girlfriend's child, even at such a young age, is no longer for the reasons he thought. The child is not his.
So, for saying that he was the father of this kid, he is rewarded by losing is anonymity. His fidelity to his girlfriend is rewarded by his girlfriend's act of infidelity. His mistake is magnified under the lens of the media, and now weeks later we learn the awful truth, and hungrily lap up the sordid details of every last kernel.
This poor boy has been through too much already. It's time for the news story to conclude, no matter what else happens. This kid needs his life back.
And just to end it o a ligher note, here's a comic that perfectly explains the science news cycle.

The Pomurje region of Slovenia can be found at the North Eastern point of the country, stretching from the Mura River at its most southern point, to the surrounding borders with Austria, Croatia and Hungary in the North. This location places the region, and the country as a whole, at the heart of central Europe, with closely forged economic, developmental and cultural ties with its neighbouring countries. In addition, the country possesses excellent road (the EU's pan-European transport corridor runs through Pomurje), rail, and air infrastructure. These communication links point to an already established economic heritage, traditionally dominated by the textile, food and drink, edible refined oil, and chemical sectors.
The main regional town is Murska Sobota with a population of 20,000, and home to the College of Economics and the nearby university of Maribor, both of which have a strong history of providing an educated, multi-lingual and technologically minded labour force. Slovenia has a long tradition of generating a quality workforce with a lower wage expectancy which bodes particularly well for potential foreign investment.
Political stability, accession to the EU in 2004, and subsequent membership to the Eurozone in 2007, mean that Slovenia consistently receives the highest credit rating of all transition economies-receiving top regional honours in a recent Dunn & Bradstreet Survey. 2010 saw Slovenia exit recession, thanks to its excellent export relationships with Germany and its other EU neighbours. In order to continue this process of sustainable and on-going economic growth, the focus of attention for future exports is on the so-called BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, and China). A readiness to develop economic ties with foreign businesses has encouraged new business start-ups amid a more fruitful and progressive business economy aided by the countries OECD membership.
Favourable financial and fiscal incentives for Foreign Direct Investment include a corporate income tax rate of 20%, which is set for gradual reduction to 15% by 2015
One such company taking advantage of the Slovenian Governments 2010-2015 plans designed to encourage economic growth and investment in the Pomurje region is Wolford AG. This international women's wear and hosiery brand from Graz in nearby Austria sell to over 60 countries worldwide and collaborate with designers from the luxury goods market such as Vivienne Westwood and Giorgio Armani. They were looking to expand and were convinced by a corporate tax system supportive of foreign business investment and development, as well as other generous incentives provided by the Slovenian government.
Favourable financial and fiscal incentives for Foreign Direct Investment include a corporate income tax rate of 20%, which is set for gradual reduction to 15% by 2015, making it amongst the lowest in Europe. Labour market related incentives such as co-financing of projects are available from the Ministry of Economy, provided there is evidence of job creation across specific sectors. In addition, refunds of social and health insurance contributions paid by employers are also available. Increased relief from 30% to 40% of amount invested in equipment and other intangible assets is offered, whilst investment projects located in Pomurje receive priority treatment when bidding for financing from national development funds and the EU Cohesion fund.
Wolford AG's investment in Murska Sobota in the Pomurje region in 2010 initially occupied a space of 4,000 sq. metres and employed 150. Wolford AG's Pomurje operation is now worth in the region of EUR 4.6 million and shows no sign of slowing down. The company is expected to double its workforce in 2012. This achievement has just been rewarded at the Financial Times FDI awards in Slovenia where the company has been praised for its contribution to the development of the region's economy, whilst the region as a whole has received numerous awards as a top European location for the future of FDI.
Agriculture is possibly the most distinguishing feature of this region and is intrinsically linked to the food industry and the foundation of economic turnover in many parts of Pomurje. Prime brown and green field sites containing mineral rich soil makes this region an ideal location for large-scale arable farming whilst enabling potential investors to gain a stronghold of both domestic and export production. The Government sponsored 'Programme MURA' was designed to rejuvenate the agricultural industry by promoting co-operative and resourceful attitudes to food production in this sector.
Pomurje's advantageous location provides unique possibilities for FDI and business partnerships whilst it's close proximity to Europe's mountainous regions and nearby Adriatic coastline contribute to a fantastic quality of life for those looking to relocate. There is still work to be done in the Pomurje region, but no one can doubt the determination of the Government and its agencies to deliver favourable policies and incentives to ensure prospects for the future look bright and prosperous for foreign investment. If your company is looking to expand and benefit from the incentives that the Pomurje region offers, then join the success story of Wolford AG , and look to Pomurje as a prime location for FDI.

Don't call Shawn Burns a carer.
His young son, Mac, may have cerebral palsy and use a wheelchair, but Burns is not a carer. He's a father.
''I care for my son in the same way as any father would care for his son,'' Burns said.
And don't make the mistake of calling Mac ''wheelchair-bound''. That would really raise the hackles.
''It's like saying someone who uses a car to get back and forth from work is 'car bound','' Burns said.
''A wheelchair is a piece of equipment that people use to access their life.
''To describe someone as 'wheelchair-bound' is seeing them as nothing more than this piece of equipment.''
Burns is the acting convener of the journalism program at the University of Wollongong and studied the way the media treat disability as part of his masters research.
His interest came as a former journalist and press secretary, as well as the father of Mac, a boy was was born four months premature and weighing just 500grams.
Burns and his wife, Gina, decided early that Mac should lead as normal a life as possible. They send him to the local school and want to break down the stereotypes.
''I found disabled people were either seen as heroes or tragedies,'' Burns said.
''I think people-first language is important. There are people who have disabilities, rather than being just disabled people.
''We should see them as people first rather than as disabled first. Disability is something that people have, it's not what they are.''
Burns is a forceful advocate for a shift in attitudes and his views are typical of a quiet revolution in disability over the past 20 years.
Proof of this is the federal government scheme announced earlier this month that transforms the ways disabled people receive benefits.
Under the National Disability Insurance Scheme, disabled people will receive vouchers which they can spend with a provider of their choice, rather than the current scheme were they are passive – and often powerless – recipients of largesse.
Minister for Disability Reform Jenny Macklin said the scheme would start next year.
''It will see people able to exercise choice and control over the care and support they receive – many for the first time,'' she said.
The scheme is a huge improvement from 1976, when Cassie Hassall was told in year 9 that she had a disease that would send her blind, and that she had no hope of a productive life.
''They said I wouldn't want to go on further at school because my sight was going to deteriorate,'' she said.
''I wasn't going to be able to do any further study, and I was told the best thing was to get a job and keep it as long as I could. Then it would be the blind pension.''
So she left school in year 10 and got a job in a shoe shop that she hated, but she stuck at it because she assumed that was all she would ever have.
After a few casual shifts, she started work in a club and loved it, using various strategies to conceal the fact that her eyesight was too poor to read standard type, use the cash till or even see the detail of customers' faces.
''The first thing I ever knew about it was when I looked up to serve somebody and there was only one person at the bar and I asked what he would like,'' she said.
''He kept looking over his shoulder. I didn't know that I had what they call 'eccentric viewing' that I didn't look right at people. That was the first time that anybody reacted like that.''
One of the hardest situations is still in busy shops such as sandwich bars where she never knows if the person serving is looking at her. Hassall has no peripheral vision so she must look directly at the person behind the counter if she wants to be served.
To look at Hassall, who now coordinates volunteers for Vision Australia in the Illawarra, you would never know she was vision impaired. And there's the problem.
There was the time when she travelled to Melbourne and became confused with the laneways. She thought they were driveways and walked out in front of a car and copped abuse from the driver. Another time, she asked a cranky bus driver if he was going Woonona and he told her to look at the front of the bus.
So, increasingly, she has swallowed her pride and walks with a white cane. The cane lets people know that her vision is severely limited.
On the day we meet she is learning how to use a longer white cane that taps the ground for obstacles and searches for navigation aids – walls, steps, and those raised dots known as ''tactile ground service indicators''.
Hassall is one of a team of people with disabilities who are advising Wollongong Council on issues such as the importance of clear pathways along walls in the city centre. Too often, businesses clog up pavements with A-frames, tables and chairs or clothes racks.
Also on the committee is Arthur Gordon, a former steelworks manager whose life changed, in an instant, when he went body surfing with his nephew at North Beach, Wollongong, in 1998.
''I went down to buy some papers and then saw my nephew, so I went for a swim,'' Gordon said.
''I was in the water for half an hour when a wave caught me and flipped me. My head was driven into the sand.
''I knew immediately there was something wrong.
''I can remember flashes. I can remember lying on my back in the sun. I can remember being in the ambulance. I can remember the helicopter going up to Sydney. That's how it was – little pictures.''
The next 11 months were spent in hospital, recovering from severe bruising of the spine, and when he came out he could move everything a little (he can even stand, with difficulty), but nothing works properly.
Everything changed. He and his wife, Dorothy, had to move out of their house in Cordeaux Heights to a single-storey house on a level block in West Wollongong.
Although Gordon is blessed with the pragmatic stoicism of a Scot, it is clear the injury has placed great strain on his marriage and on his outlook on life.
Travel has become difficult and needs extensive planning to ensure that he has someone to get him out of bed, to toilet and shower him, to cook for him.
His wheelchair is too heavy to lift (it weighs 120 kilograms) so even the smallest step is as big a barrier as a brick wall.
''Restaurants are the greatest ones for saying they are accessible, but they just don't understand. We have a list at home of the ones that are genuinely accessible,'' Gordon said.
Now 70, Gordon describes himself as in the twilight of his life, and is flummoxed when asked what plans he has for his own life. His dreams are now in his children and grandchildren.
''There are not a lot of positives,'' he said.
''Some people seem to make a real go of it, but maybe it's because it happened late in life for me that I can't.''
Gordon tells the story of one man in an electric wheelchair so filled with despair that he tried to kill himself.
''He took himself down to a boat ramp into the river to try and drown himself.
''Of course, when the water hit the motors it just stopped and he couldn't get any further and he couldn't get back out.
''I don't know if that's true or not.''
There's a wry smile on his face but a sad look in his eyes, so it's hard to figure if the story is told as comedy or tragedy. Though no-one pretends that disability is easy, and can lead to despair in more extreme cases, many of the problems arise not from the disability, but from how others respond.
Whether it's someone tripping over a wheelchair and then blaming the user (''It happens,'' says Gordon), cafes clogging up pavements, or inaudible train announcements, it ultimately comes down to awareness.
One of the reasons that it has taken Cassie Hassall half a lifetime to take up a white cane is that she wants to be treated like anybody else.''I don't like being felt sorry for,'' she says.
''I don't like that because there is no reason to.''

The girl at the front desk was doing the best she could with an outdated hotel.
It was dirty, only 1 out of 3 room cards worked, only had 1 double bed in room which was unexpected. Exterior falling apart.
I would never stay in a Baymont Inn again. When we got there, there were holes all over the exterior. Wood and foam were exposed all over. We thought, uh oh! We had asked 3 rooms which each had 3 people in them. Each room had 2 adults and a kid. We discov...Read More

The room was fine and the continental breakfast was very good.
We arrived in the early evening and were hungry. There was no restaurant in the area, we had to get back in the car and drive to eat.
Overall nice place. We were not there long. Continental breakfast was good. No restaurants near the hotel (only one closed one).

No comment.
They put in next to the housekeeping laundry and they woke us up at between 5-6 am every morning.
I would not recommend this hotel anyone I know.

Overall Rating:
They were very friendly and had a nice Continental Breakfast.
The beds were small and the pillows flat.
I returned to the front desk and asked if they had a room with two full size beds and the only thing they had was a smoking room which we took because there was my wife, me, our daughter and 4 year old grandson and we needed more than one small bed.

Checking out was the best quality of the stay.
Dirty, terrible bed, sticky carpet, stains on sheets, smelt like dogs.
Very dirty! Worst bed I have every slept in. We ended up making a bed on floor to sleep. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Good service, easy-flexible staff.
Did not make a quick attempt to find my forgotten laptop charger.
Over all a good stay for the price paid. The hotel changed our room from a one bed non-smoking to an available two beds smoking. The complementary breakfast was good, and room service was nice. My only complaint is in part to my personal fault. I called t...Read More

The staff was helpful and friendly.
The beds were not comfortable and we didn't sleep well because of this.
The hotel was in a good location and very family friendly. There was a group there and they brought grills and had a cook out outside while swimming and playing other games. I thought it was nice of the hotel to allow this.

Breakfast was good.
Staff were not able to work with me on a problem.

Overall Rating:
Price was good, but not when you get into the nasty room.
It has dog hair on the carpet, and cigarette smoke was overwhelming in the halls and in the room. We had a not smoking room.
I would not recommend this hotel. The room wasn't clean, dog hair on the carpet and the heat/air conditioner wasn't working and the non-smoking room melt of a smoking room. I slept horrible and will not stay there again.

The friendliness and cooperation of the staff was wonderful for my grandchildren and me.
Did not consider it at first because a friend had said the beds were uncomfortable. We found them most comfortable, however.
The staff was most helpful. I did not have reservations for a 2nd night and found we needed the rooms again, and the staff was very accommodating. They were also very good with my pre teen grandchildren and made their visit very enjoyable. The breakfast w...Read More

The city of Cleveland has a hotel room tax, this was an unpleasant surprise.

Kid's Cinema
Recently we discovered that our local cinema offers showings of children's films on weekend mornings for only £1.50 per ticket. Since it would normally cost us over £40 to all go to the cinema this is an absolute bargain.
The other (less obvious) advantage to the cheap kid's showings is that the cinema is full of the worlds worst cinema attendees. Yes I'm talking about children, not generally Read More.

NEAR BURBANK, Wash. - A fire on a semi pulling two trailers full of hay caused a traffic nightmare on Highway 124 Thursday morning.
Smoldering hay covered the road for hours as firefighters battled the blaze just east of Burbank. A power pole even caught fire at one point. The flames threatened crops along the highway and traffic was backed up for miles.
It began around 9:00 a.m. Pilot cars escorted traffic, one lane at a time past the fire. The highway was reopened in both directions just after 1 p.m.

Here's a revision I've been working on for 40k Chaos Daemons houserules. Comments/suggestions appreciated. Thanks.
Here's the updated special rules section for 1.9;
Daemon- Grants Eternal Warrior, Fearless, Daemonic Assault
Daemonic Assault – Chaos Daemon units are not deployed normally. Instead, each unit is deployed through a Warp Rift at the beginning of their first turn and makes a standard move immediately, measured from an edge of a Rift template. Units not deployed first turn through a Warp Rift must arrive via deep strike using standard reserve rolls.
Warp Rift– A Daemon army always starts with a number of Warp Rifts based on the army point total. If the army is up to 1000 points, it starts with one rift, 1001-2000 points the army starts with two rifts, etc. Before deployment, place a Warp Rift anywhere within 12" of the owning players' board edge [use a 5" diameter piece or template to represent the rift]. Warp Rifts must be placed at least 6" apart. After all rifts have been placed, scatter each one D6". If the rift lands in impassible terrain, move it the minimum distance, 1" away from the terrain. One additional Warp Rift can be purchased at the cost of 40 points. A Warp Rift counts as impassible terrain, but does not block los.
Heralds– Heralds count as unit upgrades and do not take up a slot on the force organization chart unless they are given a chariot. Chariot mounted Heralds count as an elites choice. Up to two Herald chariots can be taken per Elite slot. The following units may take a Herald (must be same type as the unit [Khorne, Nurgle, Slaanesh, Tzeentch]); Bloodletters, Plaguebearers, Daemonettes, Horrors, Bloodcrushers, Plague Toads, Flamers, and Seekers. Max one Herald per unit.

Fun Food For Kids
From time to time kids just need a little inspiration to try new things. This compilation of ways to make food more fun will encourage kids to experiment with their food.
Children might be fickle when it comes to food and it's hard to keep up with what they like. One week they might be keen on granola bars, so you stock up on those only for them to inform you the next week they don't like them any longer and haven't for at least a year. They seem to have a totally different concept of time.
You can offer children very similar foods that continue to be healthy and nutritious, but served in different shapes or ways and all of a sudden they like them again.

Director of Athletics Themy Adachi has been Director of Athletics, Physical Education and Recreation (APER) at Mills College since 2000. As an Asian American woman, Adachi represents less than 1% of NCAA athletic directors. Understanding the power and responsibility of such a position, Adachi advocates to create socially just and inclusive athletic opportunities for all students, including diverse populations, and to provide student-athletes with transformative learning through sport and civic engagement. Under Adachi's leadership, Mills College Athletics has been nationally recognized for its community service and outreach, having been a five time recipient of one of the National Association of Division III Athletic Administrators/ Josten's Community Service Awards. Each year Mills College teams engage in community outreach projects to develop leadership skills and discover their power to impact the world. In recognition of her leadership in making sports at Mills College accessible and inclusive to Alameda county residents, Adachi was inducted into the Alameda County Women's Hall of Fame in 2005 as the "Outstanding Woman of the Year in Sports and Athletics." In 2009, Adachi received the United States Tennis Association Northern California Trailblazer Award, for "lifelong commitment to growing the sport of tennis in traditional and non-traditional communities." Adachi serves as a role model for women's leadership and is committed to women's leadership education. Currently Adachi is the chairperson of the NCAA Association of Division III Independents Initiative Grants Committee, and from 2004–2010 Adachi served as the California Pacific Conference President. Whether it's supporting student-athletes to become a National Student-Athlete Advisory Committee representative, to go to NCAA leadership conferences, to participate in an Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drugs Conference, or to become a team leader, Adachi emphasizes that everyone can be a leader because everyone can make a difference. Consequently, Mills student-athletes have led the way. Last year a student-athlete became Mills College's first representative on the NCAA Division III National SAAC and Management Council. Two Mills student-athletes have been honored at the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) Conference as Coca-Cola Community All-Americans. In 2008–2009, both the Mills College Swimming and Cross Country teams received the most esteemed award of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), in recognition of being the NAIA team that best represented the NAIA Champions of Character five core tenets. Two Mills College athletes have received Arthur Ashe Award recognition for academic excellence and community activism. Last spring, the Mills Student-Athlete Advisory Committee led a cutting edge workshop on inclusion of transgender athletes. Mills student-athletes are making their mark in today's global society. |

With the Russian probe still floating in orbit, we're going to shift our focus this week to a subject slightly off-topic, as the chicken pox are not exactly toxic. However, recent news in this area justifies a post.
Moms across the country know that having a chicken pox party can be an efficient way to have the whole neighborhood get the virus so that the children won't end up with it later. (However, the British National Healthcare System has indicated that approximately thirteen percent of people actually do contract chicken pox more than once.)
At any rate, these "pox parties" have taken a turn for the worse, as some moms have offered to export their child's virus to willing buyers in the form of lollipops. It is one thing to have your child play with a friend and contract the virus that way. But is it really necessary to have your child slobber all over a lollipop, only then to mail it to another child so they can unknowingly contract the disease by licking up another child's slobber? Needless to say, we at GoldenbergLaw do not endorse this practice.
Just in case you aren't grossed out enough to refrain from participating in this facebook fad, there are also three other fantastic reasons to stay away from these saliva-saturated candies:
1) A chicken pox vaccine was introduced in 1995.
2) If you are still weary of the vaccine, then keep in mind that the lollipops likely are not the most efficient means of exposing your child to chickenpox anyway. According to Isaac Thomsen, a specialist in pediatric infectious diseases at Vanderbilt Hospital, chickenpox is typically contracted through inhalation. This means that your child just might require actual human interaction. What a shame.
3) Third and quite importantly, there are actually legal repercussions for mailing infected lollipops. After considering what could possibly be illegal about some contaminated candy, all we need to be reminded of is the anthrax scare a few years ago. That was transported through the mail as well. Consequently, it makes sense that it is a federal crime to transport diseases or viruses across state lines. This means that whether you mail the lollipops through the mail or through a private carrier like FedEx, you could be facing up to twenty years in prison.
Now that all of this information is out there, let's review: pox parties are a bad idea. If you have questions about how to handle the chicken pox dilemma, please consult a doctor. Facebook is not an adequate substitute.
For more information, please take a look at the articles from the following sources:
- The New York Times
- WebMD (on the chicken pox vaccine)

5@10 -- All-time Heisman head scratchers
Jomo, I didnt post anything from 12:38 til 3:06 cause I had punched a hole in my monitor. Curse you and Charles Woodson.
5@10 -- All-time Heisman head scratchers
There are still things to discuss regarding the NBA for the next few weeks. Anyone see Tayshaun Prince forget he is 33 last night coming down the lane? Dude was looking more 2003 than 2013. He dunkfaced some sucker and looked as surprised as anyone else.
Also, has anyone else noticed that when Lebron drives and gets hit, he develops this weird flop as if he is being controlled like a marionette by a drunk puppeteer, flailing his arms about so as to attain the call? Malkovich, Malkovich, Malkovich. Haven't quite figured out how he is still able to get the ball in for the three point play, but the "jello theatrics" are amateur at best.
5@10 -- All-time Heisman head scratchers
JMC, I am sure the 5@10 could fetch as many comments as Mr. Cook or Mr. Bennett's sections of the website, but Jay strictly forbids us from wearing aluminium foil hats anymore, so the government is still capable of controlling our brain waves, thus preventing comments of useless dribble and hatred. Its all in the Family Oriented Interweb Based Sports Column Handbook, check it out.
Having grown up in Knoxville during the time period of Peyton's Heisman race, I can assure you that some people will never recover from Woodson stealing UT's Golden Orange child's trophy. There are still people that growl at the television in 2013 when Woodson is shown. Far too many people with children named Peyton in the 865 to let that one go.
5@10: Needle movers from the Panhandle
May has become the Month of Mocs-mania. Blackburn has certainly set the bar high for himself for the rest of his career. I havent felt this much buzz in the entire time I have been a UTC follower.
I will see your tennis theory, and raise you swimming. Swimming you say, the fundamental skill acquired through self preservation when one enters a body of water of significant depth? Yes, that swimming, and I would say Michael Phelps rivals R-Fed in the needle moving category despite only being relevant sport-wise every four years. Sure, lots of people like to splash in the pool during the day and then take bong rips and eat Subway at night, but Phelps did it while winning gold medals. And when he was on, we were watching.
5-at-10: NBA answers, 1988 movies extra-ganza and SoCon shuffles
Going to be hard for the Bulls to implement their "Ding the King" strategy when the Heat send out their hockey enforcer. They call him the Birdman, you may have heard of him, he fly's in any weather. Chris Anderson is one of those guys that when he is on your team you love his hustle and ability to annoy the other team to the point of madness, when he is on the team you are facing, you will want to punch him through your tv.
I know I am now "Hans and Franz Pumped" for game three. The Bulls are going to come out swinging for the embarrassment that was just schalacked on them and they are talking about D.Rose returning. Chicago's arena is going to possibly explode. However, if Lebron plays like he did last night with the other folks chipping in, it may not matter how crazy the Bulls get.
Jay, do you foresee any fines or suspensions stemming from the behavior of some of the Heat or Bull players last night? I dont know how the NBA works as a business with the players and refs being coworkers, but if I told a fellow employee here to go "self-stimulate" themselves in front of our customers(i.e. the fans), I have a feeling it may get brought up at our next round table. Thoughts?
5-at-10: James nearly perfect, wet racing and UTC coaching update
This weekend was a doozy. My favorite superhero movie is going to be about my kidneys and liver. It was Star Wars Day(May the Fourth be with you), Derby Day, UTC Graduation (Lady Todd makes me call her master now), Cinco de Mayo, and something else I am sure. Too many opportunities for celebration. Mint Juleps haven't gotten any better over the course of a year and tequila is the devil. (I would be willing to open the doors for free immigration if Mexico is willing to take tequila back.) I picked Falling Sky to win at our gathering and the only horse he beat was a scratch. I'll miss those "entertainment vouchers."
I got a top five list for you, top overall action movie actors. Arnold? Stalone? Willis? Dark horse Swayze? This provided some good water cooler discussion around here.
5-at-10: Merry Draftmas mailbag
Bringing the A game on the mailbag today. Good stuff all around. Missed most of the draft due to my trivia obligations, but we got 3rd, which is a free pitcher, which is our ultimate goal anyway, cause we cannonball it and everyone goes home a winner. So thanks for the review.
If you ever have the urge to regress to your "where are my pants, why is my truck in the neighbors flower bed, who put my phone in the toilet bowl" self, you should try the Dodgeball drinking game. That is one that will put hair on your chest, most of that hair will have come from the eyebrow your "buddy" shaved off after you passed out, but its hair all the same. Everytime someone says "dodge" or "ball", you drink. Everytime someone says "Globogym", you drink. Everytime someone gets hit by a ball, you drink. Everytime some gets hit by something other than a ball, you drink 5. Everytime Pepper says something, you finish your beer. They use to tell me I had a great time playing that one.
And now is time for Todd's Scent of a Woman Memory of the Day: Had an uncle that when getting pestered to the point of perturbed from the children he would slam his hand on the table and bellow "Im gonna take a flamethrower to this place!" We would all freeze and stare at him in a moment of bewilderment and then all have a good laugh. Good times.
Road House's Final Scene: "A polar bear fell on me!" So profound. Cinematic masterpiece. And I'm out.
5-at-10: Merry Draftmas — all draft all day
Jay, seeing that man throw his visor over the years has brought me much joy. Unfortunately it wasnt against people wearing orange and white a whole lot, which only makes me loathe him more. I just wish he wasnt so dang witty and humourous or I could hate him completely.
5-at-10: Merry Draftmas — all draft all day
I will take Mark Richt. Overlooking the 09 and 10 seasons, I will take a decade of 10 win seasons for the rest of my life and I hate UGA. Plus, he has also done more for the acceptance of PDA in the SEC than any one thought possible. He has been getting it done in more ways than one. (Enter Bow-chicka-bow-wow soundbite)
Jay, what are your thoughts about Joe Montegna? Ron Howard's brother is quoted with saying he's the best tackler he has ever seen. Thoughts? (I don't follow the draft a lot....)
5-at-10: Friday Mailbag on UT, the Jacksons, SEC interviews and radio
I see you mentioned Colin Hanks as a "second banana sibling" of a celebrity. Now I assume you were thinking of Tom Hanks? Well if Colin is Tom's sibling, then Tom would have had to have conceived Colin with his own mother because Colin is his son as well. Which would make Tom Hanks a true motha f.... Patrick, get back to work!
