Frisco fire chief honored as Texas' Fire Chief of the Year
While Borchardt has served the city, the fire department has grown from an all-volunteer force to more than 150 full-time employees.
FRISCO He is a man well known within the city, and now across the state. On Wednesday, Frisco Fire Chief Mack Borchardt received the 2011 Fire Chief of the Year award from The Texas Fire Chiefs Association.
Borchardt received the award during the Southwest Fire Rescue 2012 conference, which was held at the Frisco Conference Center.
Area fire chiefs who have worked with Borchardt discussed their experience and connection to the award recipient.
Plano Fire Chief Hugo Esparza, who arrived in Plano in 2006, said Borchardt has always offered his help and assistance.
"From day one that I got here, Chief Borchardt was the first fire chief that called me when I got here and offered his assistance ... I'm indebted to him for all that he's done," Esparza said. "I really look upon him as a mentor and he's really helped me learn this job and has always been generous with his advice and his help."
Esparza added that Borchardt is a "fine man and a great chief."
"I can't think of a better, more deserving recipient of that honor," Esparza said. "I'm very happy and elated for Chief Borchardt, Frisco Fire Department and the city of Frisco."
The Colony Fire Chief Scott Thompson was also pleased to hear that Borchardt had earned the recognition.
"I think it's great. He's been in the Texas fire service for a long time, and he's built the Frisco Fire Department into what it is today," Thompson said. "I've known Mack since about 1985, and have always considered him a true professional peer. He's always willing to help us out in The Colony. It's a very deserving recognition. He's a good recipient."
Borchardt is native Frisco resident and began his career in the fire department in 1973 as a volunteer firefighter, according to a release from the city.
In 1981, after serving with the McKinney Fire Department, he became city administrator in Frisco and fire chief of the Volunteer Frisco Fire Department, stated the release. In 1987, he became a full-time fire chief.
The release also said while Borchardt has served the city of Frisco, the fire department has grown from an all-volunteer force to more than 150 full-time employees. Six fire stations have also been built while he has served, with a seventh fire station expected to open soon.
Borchardt is also credited with establishing Frisco Fire Safety Town, "a facility dedicated to safety education for 'children of all ages' and the first of its kind in the country," continued the release. He also helped develop S.A.F.E.R -- or Situational Awareness For Emergency Response, which is a program providing Frisco firefighters, EMTs, and police officers immediate access to building information, including real time video, during school emergencies.
Esparza said this award reflects the professionalism of the fire departments in North Texas.
"When you think about all the fire chiefs here in the state of Texas and Chief Borchardt received that honor," Esparza said, "I think it speaks very well for our area and -- the level of management, competence, and professionalism that we have in this area."
Mayor Maher Maso said he is proud of Borchardt and gave a proclamation for the chief's 30 years of service by declaring December 2011 "Mack Borchardt Month" in Frisco.
"During my travels throughout the state -- and the country, I always hear people say great things about Chief Borchardt, what he and our firefighters have been able to accomplish as a team through his leadership," Maso said in a release from the city. "Chief Borchardt is held in high esteem by his peers and the citizens he serves. He's considered to be creative, dedicated and not afraid to 'roll up his sleeves'. We're blessed to have him as our chief."

A new blog highlights mom style. Photo courtesy of ElizabethStreet.comWe always read about stylish teens, stylish 20-somethings, and even stylish old ladies, but what about stylish moms? A new blog called Elizabeth Street launched today that targets mothers with an eye for style. According to their mission statement, the site "covers fashion, travel, activities, culture, philanthropy and lifestyle with a unique voice geared towards moms who want the best for themselves and their families." Obviously, we're in love.
The street style section is our favorite since it features tastemaker mommies from around the globe. It's so cool to see what moms are wearing everywhere from New York to Madrid and learn a little about each stylish lady. For example, Jess Afshar of Kansas City is a former Air Force service member, cancer survivor, User Experience architect at a digital marketing agency, fashion blogger, and mom to an 8-year-old boy. She inspires us! Or Sophie Trauttenberg of Vienna (left), who is a homemaker with two young children. Her favorite accessories are bracelets because "they keep the kids busy." Or Bettina Reali of Paris (below), an architect who may have the best style we've ever seen. We could browse these profiles for hours.
You can be a great mom and not wear sweatpants. Photo courtesy of ElizabethStreet.comDo you make three meals a day, go to work, take kids to swimming lessons, and read bedtime stories all while looking fab? You can be Elizabeth Streets next featured mom with a quick submission (go on, you know you've got what it takes).
If you're more of a voyer, you can read up on stylish kids clothing, miracle skin care products, toy and book reviews, children's room decor, and profiles of mom entrepreneurs. Elizabeth Street is "where stylish moms meet" and we plan on hanging out there regularly.

Actually, what I think Woz meant is that it's for the AVERAGE media consumer (which most consider to be "normal" people - although I've never really met anyone normal [especially on this forum])

Last fall, I bought a cheap 7" Android tablet, and found myself rather underwhelmed with it. So I sold it. And several weeks ago, I bought a Viewsonic 10" Android tablet. It would have been a keeper but for the horrible viewing angle- the screen would wash out and basically become unusable at any viewing angle less than 75 degrees. Needless to say, that tablet went back to the store! So I can definitely echo your sentiments about people getting 'a bad first taste' with many of the cheap Android tablets.Quote:

Bottom line, it's too late for them, unless they somehow pull a rabbit out of a hat, said rabbit being something that vastly surpasses the iPad in every respect. And I just don't see that happening anytime soon.
To my way of thinking, it looks like Apple took a page out of all the military history books and took to heart the lesson that the side that acts with the greatest speed and initiative (as well as surprise) is often the side that wins a battle. In the final analysis, Apple came to the fore with the 'fustest and the mostest' and started marketing a competent, fully-functioning tablet.
Now I have a 1st-gen iPad, and I absolutely love it. I would have gotten an iPad2 instead, but here in Canada they're practically unobtanium unless you're willing to go through the Apple Store and wait 2 - 3 weeks for delivery, assuming that delivery timings haven't slipped again due to supply bottlenecks. If anything, I'm wondering why I waited so long to get an iPad. I've only had mine for a little more than a week now, and it has already replaced my desktop machine for about 90% of my daily computing needs.


text: My wife, Leslie, and I had our first cruise On the Zuiderdam. I will give you a short review WE HAD THE TIME OF OUR LIVES.This was our first cruise and so we had researched cruise lines carefully. After a very long day of air travel full of delays we reached Vancouver and checked into the Pan Pacific hotel. We had a nice late afternoon and evening in Gastown. Up early the next morning we had hoped to tour other parts of Vancouver but the weather had different plans for us so we just went to check in at Canada Place in the hopes our suite might be ready early. Our first Holland America employee was a friendly and helpful lady who directed us to luggage drop off and on to the customs line. The place was packed already and I felt sorry for passengers of the Princess line as there was no one around to help them yet. Our next Holland America employee was Iann and he was a funny and most helpful fellow. He explained the process and delays we should expect from customs and when we might finally board the ship. The process was exactly as he described and while not timely was much better than our air travel had been. Too bad air travel and customs is not under your direction.After clearing customs the Holland America cheek in process was pleasant and quiet efficient. Promptly at 11:30 we began to board and we were delighted to find our suite (7081) ready, immaculate and much bigger than the pictures online.Happy, smiling crew at every turn greeted us. I found in the room cards showing all of the extras we had purchased with the exception of one dinner at The Canaletto. I headed down to the Neptune Lounge to sort it out. I was greeted by Mina who apologized profusely but assured me our reservations were confirmed. Mina never failed to greet me or my wife by name, was always happy, cheerful and most helpful the entire cruise. The Neptune Lounge was always immaculate and filled with scrumptious treats. While my wife and I still enjoy vibrant health I was quiet impressed with the way your staff handled the needs of the mobility impaired. Bayu and Sodiq were our suite attendants and kept our suite immaculate, they always greeted us by name and unfortunately did not fit in our suitcases for the trip home. I had no need to ever speak with the hotel manager but his stewardship was evident everywhere. The ship was immaculate 24/7. A mess was doomed before it hit the ground. Everywhere we turned someone was polishing, scrubbing or cleaning. Always happy and cheerful!The food, wine and bar service was divine in every location on the ship. I am equally comfortable in shorts and a tee shirt as I am in a Tux. We enjoyed both. The staff did an excellent job of providing service to all. I really appreciate how they kept those of us that wanted a sophisticated evening away from those that wanted to dress down.There are far too many wonderful servers to name but the rock stars are Handrie (Hank), Nina, Roel and in the Pinnacle Grill Sam the Maitre D, wine steward Ben and Zoran our waiter.We were delighted and honored to be invited to dine with Captain Christopher Turner at his table. Executive Chef Obierna, Cellar Master Levente and Dining Room Manager Wiyono presented the perfect evening. Captain Turner was a very pleasant and gentle man but it was evident he ran a tight ship. His staff officers were out and about the ship constantly. I recall an instance where a lady spilled her plate going back to her cabin and a staff officer stopped, alerted passengers to the spill, called for a cleaning crew and did not leave until the spill was cleaned. This is the kind of attention to detail that come from ones heart. These kinds of things are learned by example from ones superiors. These are the little things that separate exceptional from mediocre.

US Olympic Volleyball Team: 5 Biggest Hitters for U.S. Men's Team
By Trevor Medeiros ,
If you followed the USA men's volleyball team at all back in the 2008 Olympics, you're well aware that their story is one of tragedy and triumph. The unspeakable tragedy came when then-head coach Hugh McCutcheon's father-in-law was inexplicably murdered in Beijing during the Olympics.
Then, the euphoric triumph came when Team USA—bolstered by MVP Clay Stanley—went on an improbable run and captured the gold medal. Now, if new head coach Alan Knipe (McCutcheon is now coaching the American women's team) and his 2012 version of the men's squad is looking for a golden encore in London, they'll have to rely on a particular group of hitters.
The importance of the spike can never be overlooked in volleyball, which makes the hitter an invaluable part of the sport.
That means that these five hitters—in terms of importance to the team—are going to have a major say as to whether or not Team USA wins a medal in London.
How well David Lee can man the middle of the net in London will go a long way in determining the success of Team USA. A veteran middle blocker who played his college volleyball at Long Beach State, Lee is one of the many returning players returning from the 2008 Olympic gold-medal squad.
Obviously, a major reason the 6'8" Lee is back on the Olympic team for 2012 is his imposing defensive presence at the net. But don't overlook the importance of a middle blocker offensively in indoor volleyball.
Often times, a kill right down the gut of the court provides a great "wow" factor for fans and can really handcuff an opposing team's defensive strategy. If Lee can take advantage of the occasional quick feed from setters Donald Suxho and Brian Thornton and come up with some timely kills down the middle, it will likely keep opposing blockers honest.
It could prevent opponents from keying in too much on outside hitters like Matt Anderson and Clay Stanley. If Team USA's outside hitters are allowed to flex their muscles freely thanks to Lee, then they'll have the firepower needed to make another run at a medal.
When it comes to important hitters on the United States men's volleyball team, don't overlook the steady arm of an Olympic veteran like William "Reid" Priddy. This will be the third Olympics for the 6'4" outside hitter out of Loyola Marymount.
And while Priddy is likely to come off of the bench during the London Games (like he did for much of the recent FIVB World League tournament), that doesn't mean that he won't be a major contributor on the 2012 team.
Priddy brings a lot to the table in his new, complimentary role. He can swing at a solid .400 hitting efficiency (a percentage you always look for in a quality hitter).
That's the percentage he put up in becoming Team USA's third-leading scorer during their Olympic qualifying run earlier this year. And Priddy also made a positive impact in substitution mode during Team USA's gold medal game during the FIVB World League games earlier in July.
Although the team was swept by Poland, Priddy scored five points on four attacks and one block. Being able to bring a decorated Olympian like Priddy off the bench certainly speaks to the depth that coach Alan Knipe can utilize on his team.
After getting his feet wet at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Team USA Men's Volleyball coach Alan Knipe and his staff are hoping outside hitter Sean Rooney is ready to dive in and make an even bigger splash in London.
During Team USA's gold medal run in 2008, Rooney served primarily as a substitute and a serving specialist. In addition to his impressive serving, Rooney will be expected to play more of a significant role as an outside hitter for this year's edition of the Olympic team.
He started for coach Knipe for Team USA in the gold medal game of the 2012 FIVB World League games, a match that saw the United States fall to Poland in straight sets back on July 8 in Bulgaria.
The 6'9" Rooney (who played collegiately for Pepperdine) failed to make a significant impact on the stat sheet in that game, registering only two kills. Still, Knipe and Rooney's teammates will be counting on the promising outside hitter to be another vital gun in Team USA's hitting arsenal.
And Rooney certainly has the tools in his repertoire needed to be a reliable offensive option in London. He has a smooth arm swing and gets some serious air on his kills, as seen in this highlight tape from his days of playing professionally in Korea.
When it comes to leadership on the United States men's volleyball team, you can make the strong argument that it starts and ends with veteran opposite and team captain Clayton Stanley. Without Stanley's significant contributions to the team, there's no way they would've left Beijing back in 2008 with the gold medal.
Stanley was named MVP of the Olympics in Beijing after helping steer his squad to an improbable four-set victory over volleyball power Brazil in the gold medal game.
And now that Stanley is back in the fold for his third Olympic run, Team USA will have another legitimate shot at a medal in London. Stanley is still widely regarded as one of the sport's most well-rounded players.
Not only was Stanley named MVP of the 2008 Olympics, he was also named "best scorer" and "best server." Stanley definitely doesn't have a problem with throwing down the kills when need be.
This is a guy who once had a staggering 50 kills in a match against mighty UCLA while playing for the University of Hawaii back in 1999. While it's unlikely Stanley will be registering 50 kills in any Olympic matchups, it's still pivotal for the team to rely on his wicked jump serve and composed arm swings during these upcoming games.
If Stanley can come anywhere close to duplicating his mastery from Beijing while in London, then that's nothing but good news for coach Alan Knipe and his team.
There was a time where stud outside hitter Matt Anderson was considered the future of USA men's volleyball. Well, with the 2012 London Olympics upon us, the future is now.
Even though Anderson will compete in his first Olympic games, he's still considered Team USA's strongest hitter. Sure, he doesn't yet have the accolades of Clay Stanley or the experience of Reid Priddy. But if you were building the perfect outside hitter in a volleyball laboratory, then consider Anderson an athletic version of Frankenstein.
Compared to other Team USA members, Anderson is in his prime at the spry age of 25. He has impressive size for an outside hitter at 6'10".
Back in 2008, Anderson led Penn State to the national championship and was named the NCAA tournament's Most Outstanding Player in the process. That certainly wasn't an easy feat to achieve, considering how rarely a college team east of the Mississippi River wins the men's volleyball national title in Division 1.
And Anderson was so good in college that he left Penn State early after the 2008 national championship season to play professionally in Korea. If I had to describe Anderson's game in one word, it would be vicious.
He has a violent arm swing, which he utilizes for kills that can leave dents in the floor. If you need proof of this, just watch his highlight tape. I pity the fools that will have the unenviable task of trying to dig out one of Anderson's many kill attempts in London.
And it doesn't hurt that Anderson also has a jump serve that leaves opponents absolutely helpless. Anderson will be a matchup nightmare for any of Team USA's opponents during the Olympics, which could create a dream scenario for the Americans: another gold medal.

Umphrey's McGee threw a celebration for their triumphant return to the Riviera Theater from February 20th to the 22nd. It had been a long wait since their last three night run of shows in Chicago and the build up was almost unbearable. Needless to say, the creative energy was flowing all weekend and these concerts showcased some of Umphrey's best work to date.
Buckets of rain flooded the city streets and sidewalks before the show on Thursday. Luckily, meteorologist Tom Skilling warning me of adverse weather conditions on Chicago's WGN Midday News. I just so happened to tune in because Umphrey's McGee was the show's musical guest of the day. The band performed "No Diablo," "Puppet String," and "The Linear" throughout the hour long news program and the 30 second clips of my favorite band were just enough to send me over the edge with excitement.
Umphrey's kicked off the first night of the run with an intro called "October Rain" playing over the loud speaker as the band walked onto the Riviera's stage. They then took to their instruments and began to play along with the track. Umphrey's immediately harnessed the room's energy and once they found themselves in a free flowing groove, the band quickly segued into the frat party anthem: "40′s Theme." Guitarist Jake Cinninger kept the song in Old Dirty Bastard territory, without letting it get too heavy.
After a contained version of "The Linear," the song "White Man's Moccasins'" hectically tripped into a maze of focused energy led by keyboardist Joel Cummins. There was a special feeling to the show that night. It almost seemed like everyone in the room was attending some sort of family reunion. Not to mention that the Riviera Theater is like the "Ghost of Concerts Past." Its elegant chandeliers and pealing ceiling paint make you wonder what it looked like during its hay day. The balcony has perfect lines of site and a clear sound can be heard from almost every seat, even without headphones. The old theater chairs are so warn you can practically feel the springs stretch as they struggle to support you. I've seen dozens of shows at this particular venue but Umphrey's NYE show from 2010 takes the cake. Needless to say, this time around felt just a special.
"Much Obliged" continued the show until it eventually hit an uplifting jam that provoked a lyrical Jimmy Stewart from Brendan Bayliss. This freestyle segment set the room ablaze with its indiscernible words just before it slammed into "Kimble." The awkward change of pace was followed by "Morning Song" which seems to strike a nerve every time I hear it live, and always for a different reason. This time it was slow and controlled. See for yourself thanks to Tourgigs:
The first set ended with a grand version of "The Floor" that opened up into a progressive build that left me immediately impatient for more music.
After a longer than average set break, Umphrey's chugged their way back on stage like a slow moving train. They started off the set with an appropriate "Slacker" that coincided perfectly with their tardiness. A hectic jam was complemented by sweeping laser beams of light that originated from the back of the stage and penetrated those of us in the audience. The show continued with a "Higgins" that restrained the band's energy before it was finally allowed to gain momentum.
A big "Oh no!" came from the crowd as they witnessed the stage crew set up a microphone in front of bassist Ryan Stasik. Everyone knew this was when things would get weird. "Sad Gorillaz" is an Umphrey's mashup of Metallica's "Sad But True" and Gorillaz's "Clint Eastwood". This particular version showcased an entertaining lyrical Jimmy Stewart sung by Stasik and its contents covered everything from xanax to Care Bears. He ended the sonnet with, "What the fuck… is happening?"
In contrast, Stasik later provided a moving bass solo to push forward the first few frames of "August." As the rest of the band started to chime in, I couldn't help notice the hush that had fallen over the crowd. Ryan Stasik is the male version of a diva and the whole room seemed completely captivated by him. I'm fairly certain he wore at least six different outfits over the course of three shows that weekend, which must be a record for any bassist.
By the time "August" reached the raging jam, "Snake Juice," I couldn't help notice the whole room was thrashing. Umphrey's then went back into "August" to help bookend the segment.
The second set of Thursday night eventually ended with "Hurt Bird Bath." This song always feels like an intense journey to a magical place. Waful held the tension of the room until his lights ignited into an explosion of color like never before. This combination of adventurous sounds and stimulating visuals provided a limitless moment of bliss only felt by being in the right place at the right time. It's no wonder this song always invokes Umphrey's fans to "Woo…"
The show's encore came just after midnight with a complete version of "Pay the Snucka" that featured an insane guitar solo from Jake Cinninger. I use the word "insane" very literally here because a close friend of mine started to lose his shit at this point in the show. It was as if Jake channeled some sort of heavy metal death god and was sealing the fate of our souls with rapid fire guitar notes. And so, the first night of Umphrey's in Chicago came to a close.
Set 1: October Rain > 40′s Theme, The Linear > White Man's Moccasins, Much Obliged[1] > Kimble, Morning Song, The Floor

By the second night, wind gusts had torn all the letters off the Riviera's marquee. A longer than average line wrapped around the venue for this sold out show because many fans, like myself, just couldn't wait for the next round of Umphrey's McGee.
The show kicked off with the slow growing intro called "A Mild Sedative" and eventually exploded into the first notes off the album Anchor Drops. This version of "Plunger" contained a frantic jam to start the Friday show off right. It peaked with an abrupt stop-and-go section that slowly evolved into group improv unlike anything Umphrey's has ever played before. Up next was "Passing." Though it was a short and sweet, it stabilized the room's energy before Umphrey's launched into "The Crooked One." There was a tension that was present when the song first started but ten minutes later, it turned into a glorious progressive jam that was bathed in Jefferson Waful's lights.
The song "Comma Later" was played so impressively that night, many of those who once hated the tune are now sold on its potential. It's jam was thick with disco grooves and peaked over, and over again. This was the type of moment die hard Umphrey's fans live for and it was a total game changer for this particular Umphrey's song.
Friday's first set ended with a 20 minute "Preamble> Mantis Ghetts>Mantis" and closed on a Cinninger peak. It was so intense, Jake had to turn his back to the audience while he became frozen in the moment. It was obvious the guitarist was in prime form that night. He aligned the whole room on his frequency, practically demanded we get on his level or be left in the dust.
I guess you could say that the first set of Friday night was looser than a 'lot girl' at the end of Phish's summer tour. In fact, the first hour of music was so robust, a set break was welcomed this time around.
"All In Time" kicked off the second set. This classic Umph song contained a jam led by percussionist Andy Farag that subtly turtled to its peak until Jake unleashed like a viper, shredding it to pieces.
"The Triple Wide" began as a dedication to the band's friends and family that were there in the audience that night. Then, in the middle of the song, half of the band ventured up into the balcony to rage right next to their loved ones. It was something Umphrey's has recently started to experiment with since they've started playing with wireless technology. Needless to say, the crowd was wildly entertained by the theatrics and even chanted, "USA…USA…" in approval.
"Hajimemashite" started out pretty standard but once the first verse was complete, Umphrey's immediately transitioned into the song "Glory." The rest of the tune bounced back between the two songs as if they were always meant to be played together. It was a moment of pure grace like I've never experienced before. Check out the video shot by Tourgigs:
After the mesmerizing "Haji/Glory" combo, Bayliss took a moment to thank the crew and introduce his fellow band members. A song played as each member was introduced and the band even completed a whole verse of Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" after Kris Myer's introduction. The group then went into the jazzy old school favorite "Prowler" that almost immediately transitioned into a 10 minute "Intentions Clear."
All of the night's cover songs came at the end of the show and I have to admit, I was kind of embarrassed I knew every word of Wang Chung's "Dance Hall Days." Most folks around me seemed lost but I still sang each verse as loud as I could. The set ended with "Hangover" and included a tease of ZZ Top's "La Grange" and a full verse from Hendrix's "Voodoo Child."
Jake Cinninger dedicated the encore to South Bend then delivered the first verse of Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb." For the final song of the night, Umphrey's McGee played a heavy version of "1348″ that left everyone in the room satisfied. The show, overall, contained everything that is wonderful about this band. Every jam was executed perfectly and you could really tell the whole band was actively listening to each other that evening. Friday's show was definitely the highlight of the weekend.

Saturday felt like I was seeing a completely different band. After the debut of Umphrey's newest intro, "Bathing Digits," a massive "Phil's Farm" circled in and out of a back woods jam that wouldn't let you forget its twangy roots. The rest of the set was nothing to tell mom about. The beginning of "Miami Virtue" almost fooled me into thinking it was "Nothing Too Fancy", which was kind of a let down. I was waiting for that epic, jaw on the floor moment but, for some reason, this set never hit it. "2nd Self," "Thin Air," and "Red Tape" weren't as tight as they could have been and it felt uncomfortable.
"Bad Friday" was probably one of the most anticipated songs of the weekend, but it just didn't hit the level awesomeness it did when it first debuted this past New Years Eve. Check out the Tourgigs footage:
Overall, this part of the run lacked the free flow of energy that existed on Thursday and Friday. The second half of the first set featured Brendan Bayliss and Jake Cinninger on acoustic guitars. For a band with such high energy live shows, this type of breakdown is usually saved for special occasions. I have to admit, I actually started to cry during Bayliss's touching delivery of "The Weight Around." To top it off, the band was joined by a spunky singer named Daphne Willis for backup vocals on another acoustic rarity: "Bullhead City." Overall, Umphrey's acoustic treatment was very personal and salvaged what was left of the set, which finally came to an end with a short cover of Bob Seger's "Night Moves."
Whatever took place during the first half of the Saturday show was most definitely overshadowed by the five song second set that power houred through to the end of the Chicago run. The jam of the night, maybe even the whole run, was a 27 minute DBK that invaded the galaxy. "Just What I Needed" was a quaint cover before "Divisions" dove deep into a sea of slow paced progression. It was followed by a strange version of "Believe the Lie" that started out sounding like a Zappa cover. I'm pretty sure this trickery was part of the show because shit just kept getting more and more weird.
Overall, the theatrics that weekend pushed the boundaries of Umphrey's stage show. Wireless guitars allowed members to utilize their stage space like never before. Mix in Waful's strobe lights and you could barely see Stasik and Cinninger wandering around the back of the stage and messing with the other band members. The second set came to a close with an overly controlled "Puppet String" that was stripped down until right before the song's raving peak.
For the final encore, drummer Kris Myers sat behind his kit only to admit he didn't know how to play the next song on the setlist. Conveniently enough, Myers found the Smashing Pumpkins' drummer, Jimmy Chamberlin, on the side of the stage. Chamberlin then took over Kris's drums so Umphrey's could cover the Pumpkins' classic, "Cherub Rock." The audience was overjoyed to share in this authentic home town experience.

So the highly anticipated Chicago run finally came to an end. Overall the weekend was extremely relaxed and controlled. Friday definitely stands out as the most successful night of the run and I would highly recommend you give it a listen.
I was able to catch my annual Umphrey's McGee show at the Pageant in St. Louis on Mardi Gras eve. Besides music festivals, they always come to the Pageant once a year either in the fall or winter, and it's really hard for me to miss them since I've been seeing them every year since 2005. When they first began their set, they got warmed up with "Drink My Drank" with some nice mardi gras themed purple, yellow, and green lighting. Then played "Plunger" off of my FAVORITE album Anchor Drops. Everyone of course screamed (including myself), since who doesn't love hearing some oldies? As I was running around gathering and finding different friends I caught some of "2×2″ and "Comma Later". Once I was settled into one spot with my friends, we busted into a sing-a-long to "Mantis". Umphrey's then completed their first set with the rest of "Plunger".
Umphrey's strolled out for their second set and started the with the smooth sounds of "Puppet String" showcasing Stasik's funky bass playing, followed by another one of my favorite live songs, "40's Theme". Next up, they played another one of my favorites off of Anchor Drops, "Wife Soup". My friends and I sang and danced it up hard to this number. The audience then when nuts when they played a Wing's cover "Live and Let Die", followed by another crowd favorite, "Bright Lights, Big City" off of The Bottom Half. Next, they played "Deeper", and whenever I hear that song, all I see is Stasik rollerblading in short shorts like in their music video, I'm sure I'm not the only one too, haha. Lastly, they ended with the second half of "Mantis". After enough cheering, Umphrey's came out to play a silly song about each member called "Pay The Snucka" for the encore. Like usual, Umphrey's put on a fantastic show. I loved how they included a very broad range of old and new songs this time, which left me extremely satisfied. Now I can't WAIT to catch them again at Summer Camp in a couple months!

What are the Holidays really about ?
Have you been watching holiday movies on TV this year?
Have you seen any sort of theme? I have noticed while watching the hallmark channel and movies like the Grinch that stole Christmas all of these movies have a similar holiday theme. It's a simple reminder that is sometimes hard to keep in mind, but an important message.
The holidays are about family, getting together and spending time with one another.
Whether you are religious or not everyone from Giftsin24.com wants to wish you and your family a nice holiday.
We hope you are able to spend the day at home and with the ones you love. Wishing kindness in your hearts, food on your plate and a roof over your head.
Yes, gifts are nice, but more importantly let's enjoy our friends and family, the non materialistic things in our life this year.
Many people do hope for more than presents at Christmas and New Year's gatherings. We want to somehow return to a time in our childhood, when life was simpler and made more sense, before the troubles of adult life arrived. We feel sure that behind all the fun and decorations, there must somehow be a message, something more, some key to life, hope and happiness.
So can we look beyond the way Christmas is celebrated today, and find any real meaning, any message for our lives today?
From our family to yours. We hope you had a very Merry Christmas and have a happy New Year!
Remember to order your thank you cards. Choose from our great selection of personalized embossed and monogrammed thank you notes. Tell your family how thankful you are today!

Thousands of Disney Fairy Toddler Racing Trikes are being recalled.
The plastic fairy figures protrude from the top of the handle bars and can cut a child if they fall off.
There was one report of a 3-year-old child from Ohio who suffered a serious injury to her face.
Target sold the Trikes from July 2009 through December 2009 for about $50.
If you have one of these Trikes, do not let your child use it and call 1-800-430-5307 for a free replacement handle bar.

Bummer!! I don't apply hair products in the shower because it seems too messy, and I prefer to apply them to damp hair. But I do swear by paddle brushes for detangling on soaking wet, conditioner saturated hair. I know from your posts that tangles have you down. Have you tried vent brushes??? Those are really good detanglers. And when you detangle by section, do you ever hold your hair tight towards the top and then brush the part below where you are holding your hair??? This speeds up the detangling process a lot.
Anyway, good luck GabbyC!!

3.53/5 rDev -13.9%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
On tap at Central Coast Brewing in San Luis Obispo, CA.
Pours a super dark brown with a foamy khaki head that settles to a film on top of the beer. A foamy latticework of lace coats the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, rye, and herbal hop aromas. Taste is much the same with a roasty aftertaste. There is a medium herbal hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer that is drinkable and pretty tasty.
Serving type: on-tap

22 oz. bomber,
A: Pours brown with a medium off-white head, solid retention.
S: Heavy pine smell, sap, Christmas tree, great nose.
T: Milk chocolate and carob, lots of sweet malt flavours. Great balance with the grapefruit and almost tropical hop notes.
M: Medium-bodied, smooth, pretty easy drinking.
D: Not a huge CDA fan but this is well done. The malt flavours are interesting, the hop flavours are exciting, a very good first impression out of SLO.

Purchased this bomber at Cork 'N Bottle in San Luis Obispo. "First Edition" bottling. While I'm not sure of the bottling date, I would assume this beer is under four months old. It's been refrigerated for that entire time.
Poured into a New Belgium globe.
Appearance: Looked gorgeous off the pour, and it maintains its beauty throughout the session. A dense, creamy, tan head sits atop a pitch black body. Thin slivers of brown peak through the body's edges when the beer is directly back-lit; otherwise, this looks completely opaque. Catch 23 exhibits fantastic head retention and slops thick, goopy lacing all over the walls of the glass. Excellent.
Smell: After letting it decant in the NB globe for about 15 minutes, I decided it was time to dive in. Pine sap, caramel, dark roast coffee, earth, and lemon zest all jump out immediately. Deeper whiffs uncover breakfast pastries (esp. coffee cake) and chocolate. Complex and enjoyable, although there's also something off in this aroma - I can't put my finger on it.
Taste: Loads of moist pine from beginning to end. Dark chocolate, caramel, cream, orange and lemon add to the mix. Great complexity and balance, but what I really like about this beer is that the roasted malts don't contribute an insane amount of bitterness on an already hop-forward finish.
Mouthfeel: Smooth and extra creamy thanks to a solid malt bill and fine, velvety carbonation. This is probably the easiest drinking black IPA I've ever had. Medium-bodied with excellent hop-malt balance. Finishes lightly sweet and exhibits great mouth-coating.
Overall: I used to think all of Central Coast's beers were shit. Then I tried this one a few months back, and it totally changed my perception. Unlike most American black ales, or whatever you choose to call them, Catch 23 doesn't exude a heavy-handed bitterness. Far from intense, this one's impeccably smooth and beautifully balanced. If you're lucky enough to spot this on-tap or in the bottle, give it a try!
Kudos to Drew. You're a magician!

Central Coast Catch 23
On tap from the brewery
Appearance: dark brown, very good lacing, and medium head.
Smell: rich hops, grain, and rye.
Taste: rich malty hops, slight chocolate, and a light rye finish.
Mouthfeel: medium.
This is a nice brew. The hops are very pleasant and prevalent. The rye isn't very strong, but you can taste it in the background. 4.5

He didn't repeat a grade to get looks, he had a broken collar bone and couldn't play for a season so he repeated eligibility. That is why most big time programs haven't looked his way, he did nothing for almost a full year due to the injury and didn't get his name out.
And what off the field lapses in judgment are you referring to? This is the first time I've heard that. In fact I've only heard he's a great kid off the field, including from people who live in Richmond.
You make it seem like you know a lot about what's going on because you live close to Speight but it seems like you don't know much at all about him, so I ask again, hoping for an answer from Gerry.

Gerry I agree with a lot of these rankings adjustments. Some were absolutely necessary IMO.
While I believe Bryan Mone could be a top 30 player in the country, I think you guys placed him properly at 51 for now. Within the top 150 it's just splitting hairs. Also, I hear you were a huge fan of Mone's film; join the club!
I echo Rabid's question on Wilton Speight. I know by the end of the cycle he will have proved himself at some camps/his senior season, but Speight's film is far more impressive than many of the QB's ranked ahead of him IMO. Any insight on this? Thanks.

One of my concerns on him is lack of foot quickness overall and in the pocket, along with lack of body/reactive quickness to things moving around him. That's especially something to watch considering the type of athleticism difference he will face at the next level. Then I also factor in he is 100% gun, so he's has advantage in not having to quickly react in the midst of a drop.
I do think he does a good job of stepping up in the pocket when he can, and makes some of his best throws in those scenarios.

I didn't downvote you FWIW. I wasn't arguing with your opinions, it's just the first time I've heard something along those lines. I understand if people have their doubts about him as a quarterback. It was the off the field issues you brought up and his repeating a year of school. No biggie.

This is the start of the time where the late bloomers start kicking in. Spring ball and summer in the weight rooms are huge for guys.
There is also the continuing to ascend factor for talented prospects too.
All about maximizing ones ability IMO.

Saint Reparata, Virgin and
Martyr - Died in the 3rd Century From the 7th through the 13th centuries St. Reparata was the primary patron saint of Florence, until the city took the Virgin Mary and St. John the Baptist as its chief protectors. The legend in the city was that St. Reparata was martyred under Decius in the third century in Caesarea in Cappadocia. St. Reparata's attributes are a crown and a martyr's palm, though in one famous sculpture from the old Duomo in Florence she carries a vase instead.

However, NetStumbler doesn't work in either Vista or Windows 7, so I suggest that you link to Vistumbler instead. Now you tell me though. haha I took a wireless adapter out because I wanted further range. I soldered an old tv antenna to it in an attempt that I knew probably would be of no use. Then fired up NetStumbler and it's saying the card was not compatible...and I'm like, yes it is! I used it on XP to do this. I quickly put it down without looking further into it. Thank you. |

| Excellent guide for everyone...i should post this link on my Hotmail profile. You have no idea how many of my friends could use a good read up like this. I review my settings every second or third day just in case I have to make any changes and/or configure ports, or adjust my routers time clock, which seems to change once in awhile, but overall i love my D-Link router even though complex, but worthy of a few minutes of my time. Thank you Brink. |

| Excellent guide Mickey, I have actually had issues with my router from day one and this is always a big help when I run into a snag. I actually had a rather nasty incident recently at a coffee shop where someone there was trying to hack my computer (gotta love public networks), anyway my firewall didn't catch it but luckily hotspot shield did, gotta love freeware! |

Jailing the animal rights lunatics won't stop them
In the second jailing of animal rights lunatics in two years, five activists have been jailed for a campaign of terror against individuals from around forty companies that were doing business with the Huntingdon science laboratory, the country's largest animal research centre. The judge said it clearly after passing the jail sentences: "I expect you will be seen by some as martyrs for a noble cause…." Unfortunately, he's spot on.
They carried out acts of "intimidation, violence and terror" that cost £12.6 million to the companies concerned, they caused immeasurable personal trauma to the individuals who were the focus of the attacks, and they achieved their aim of stopping companies from doing business with the laboratory. It sounds like a victory for the activists to me.
So a few of them are now going to jail for a few years. They'll see that as an honourable price, worth paying to save the lives of the poor suffering creatures locked up in that laboratory.
This type of crime is amongst the worst, and amongst the most difficult to stop. Like other terrorists, they've found a cause that many people feel sympathetic towards. A surprising number of caring animal lovers will feel worryingly ambivalent about these criminals. They'll agree, of course, that the terrorism tactics are entirely wrong, yet at the same time, they genuinely believe that testing of laboratory animals is wrong, and so they support the aims of the terrorists.
This ambivalence means that there's likely to be at least a smidgeon of support for them amongst the general population. This is all that's need to sustain a movement. One more middle aged leader with an eye on martyrdom, a few more idealistic and naïve young people, and the next campaign is ready to go.

A-Rod: Madonna & I Just 'Friends –That's It'
New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez is speaking out about his relationship with Madonna – but according to the baseball star, it's just a friendship.
"We're friends," A-Rod told recently told People of Madonna. "We're friends – that's it."
The slugger shot down rumors that he's been jetting around the country to spend time with the Material Mom, who recently split with film director Guy Ritchie.
"I can tell you this," he continued, "I have never been on a plane with her."
After he was seen handing Madonna a bottle of water during her Miami stop on her "Sticky & Sweet" world tour in November, speculation began that the duo were getting serious with their relationship and taking it public. Not true, according to A-Rod.
"I've been to two [of her] concerts, yet I've read that I went to 20. I've also read that we were buying an apartment together. That is absolutely ridiculous and not true," he said.
Despite the media scrutiny and being hounded by the paparazzi, the 33-year-old is able to keep the situation in perspective with a laugh or two.
"You have to have a sense of humor when it comes to this stuff… if I answered every rumor, we'd be here for three weeks," he told the mag.
As for his ex-wife, Cynthia, who he divorced in September, the third baseman said they have not been arguing as reported.
"I have a wonderful relationship with Cynthia," Alex said. "We try to be the best parents we can."
Last week, Alex and Cynthia spent the Thanksgiving holiday with their daughters, Natasha and Ella.
"I see my children, honestly, seven days a week, which has been great. We both have a lot of respect for each other and she's a great lady," he continued.
As for Madonna, Alex said he also respects her accomplishments.
"I have a lot of respect for her," he added. "She's very committed to making the world a better place. She's had an amazing career, and we're friends. That's it."

Dr. Ary Graça confirms support for African volleyball development on Algeria visit
The visit, which took place from December 6 to 9, was Dr. Graça's first visit to Algeria since his election in September 2012.
Blida, Algeria, December 10, 2012 – Dr. Ary Graça, president of the FIVB, recently completed a four day visit to Algeria, where he met with Algeria Federation president Mustapha Lemouchi and other sport dignitaries.
At a press conference held at the Equestrian Club of Blida (attended by the Tunisian and Nigerian federation presidents) the FIVB president promised to do his best to help local volleyball grow and popularise mini-volleyball. He stated his support for giving the national federation the means to develop supports, organise training for coaches and referees,
raise the level of the discipline in Algeria.
"A development plan funded by the International Federation of Volleyball for the practice of the discipline in North African countries, especially in Algeria, will be implemented shortly, with specific materials such as nets
balls provided to the federations," Graça announced.
The President also held talks with officials from Algerian sporting bodies, including the Minister of Youth and Sports, Mohamed Tahmi. Speaking after the meeting, Dr. Graça confirmed that both men had the same vision fo
boosting and promoting young talent development in volleyball in Africa.
His visit also coincided with a women's volleyball match between GSPetrolier and NRChlef in the city of Tipaza on Friday, December 7 and a mini volleyball tournament at the Blida school sports hall the following day.
The mini volleyball tournament brought together around 1,500 athletes from different provinces of the country and each went home with a ball and a jersey. The young participants gave their best as the FIVB President, along with Olympic champion Jaqueline Carvalho, looked on.

For those who may be running into difficulty addressing cramming related charges on their phone bills, the LATimes published an article about this on 2009-08-12.
Bogus fees land on phone bills too easily
I've been informed by one person that was hit with cramming that AT&T responds to consumers letting them know that California Law prevents them from stopping the charges. Well, I find that hard to believe so I'm wanting to get a little more discussion going here on how the phone companies handle third party billing. According to the LA Times article above, once you call and complain about a charge on your phone bill, it is the providers responsibility to investigate.
Still, Diamond said AT&T won't hesitate to waive a questionable fee if an investigation shows that the fee wasn't authorized - which may indeed be the case but doesn't reflect Cohen's experience.
It was mentioned that there are monetary incentives for phone companies to allow third party billing - and there are. They may be taking a piece of the action in the process. I wonder how much money they make from third party billing that is bogus?
If you've got charges on your bill that you know were not authorized, I'd fight tooth and nail with your phone carrier, let them take the onus, investigate, and refund your monies. Based on my research to date, the companies doing the cramming are the last ones to contact, they're going to give you the runaround and continually lie to you while additional charges appear on your bill. Or, you only get credited for a portion of the charges. It's really a nasty business and the PUC (Public Utilities Commission) need to step up to the plate and STOP it.
