Step 2
Place 5 soaked ladyfingers in a 2-quart serving bowl. Top with 1/3 cup lemon or raspberry curd, then half the whipped cream. Top with remaining ladyfingers, 1/3 cup curd, and remaining whipped cream; top with remaining 1/3 cup curd. Refrigerate 3 hours (or up to overnight) before serving.

This recipe was ok, pleasant but not amazing. I doubled it, which used all the lemon curd. The recipe is quite expensive, between buying the lady fingers and the dessert wine (I didn't use Sauternes, just another dessert wine suggested by the wine store owner), and I'm not really sure it's worth it. It's lemony but not quite as lemony as I like.

Comments about Leslie 2101 mk2 Rotary Speaker:
Just got this Lesli 2101 and I am very pleased. I ran my Native Instruments B4 soft-synth thru the left and right channels versus the rotary channel and it sounded awe sum. The left right inputs are really for my other keyboards, but it sounded great. My real plan though is to use the Rotary channel for the organ sounds and the left right for my other 3 keyboards modules. Very cool, very nice.

Story written by Prostaffer, Mike Patterson:
I recently named this buck M.I.A due to the fact that after I would spot him he would go "Missing In Action" for awhile. The journey for this buck started in mid December of 2011 while I was glassing to check what animals had made it through the Ohio firearms season. When I glassed him in the CRP he really caught my eye as a beautiful 3.5 year old that I figured would gross somewhere in the mid 140′s. I instantly wanted to get some pics of him so i placed three Primos Truth cams on the property. It took almost 2 weeks to finally catch a few images of him. Continue reading

Will Primos Talks Elk Bugling
With elk season quickly approaching, here are a few tips on elk bugling that Team Primos uses to be successful in the elk woods.
The best way to blow a bugle is to place you upper lip on the support shelf with your lower lip just touching the edge of the reed. The harder you blow the higher the pitch. Higher pitch bugles are more intense and carry further on windy days. Continue reading

[In reponse to the film, The Law in These Parts]
By Nicholas Blomley
By Ashley Kascak
Like many important social issue films, Sex Crimes Unit was hard to digest. As the title implicates, this documentary was definitely not for the faint of heart. It was raw, explicit, and unapologetic, as it should be. And it's stories like this one that confirms why documentary is so important to the evolution of our society.
By Peggy Lam
Stefano Savona's Tahrir-Liberation Square dives into the movement occurred in Cairo, Egypt on Janurary 25th, 2011, in which millions of protestors took to the streets to demand for the resignation of Hosni Mubarak and eventually, won. Through beautiful imagery of protestors flowing in and out of Tahrir Square, Savona crafted a story strictly out of using the people's voices and capturing the moments of the revolution at its most grassroots level.

tdjorgensen105 weeks agoThanks! As much as I'd like it to, I think it's only front printing. Even smaller stripes on the sleeves would be nice in my opinion. I really appreciate the support!

It's said that the great boxer Sugar Ray Leonard, following the first of his many retirements, spent entire days hitting tennis balls to nobody, staring vacantly at the court between serves.
This terrible malaise -- one that seems to afflict nearly every former champion -- drove Sugar Ray to endless comeback attempts despite doctors' warnings that further blows to his head might cause him to go blind.
Ed Rollins knows how that malaise feels, because he, too, was a boxer. A former pro-am contender raised in the sweaty gyms of Vallejo, Rollins took under-the-table payoffs to fight fading champs and promising up-and-comers during the 1960s.
Later, as a political consultant, Rollins used his combative instincts to guide Ronald Reagan to the greatest margin of victory in modern presidential politics.
But Rollins suffered a career-ending knockout when he managed the failed 1994 senate campaign of noted stuffed shirt Michael Huffington. And his 1996 book Bare Knuckles and Back Rooms savagely insulted so many people that it seemed to lend credence to his claim that he had left politics for good. "So now, I'm hanging up the gloves," Rollins wrote, a couple of pages after referring to Huffington as a "dumb-fuck candidate."
But it appears Rollins couldn't give up the fight. Quietly, stealthily, he's stepping back into the ring of California state politics, where he began his career.
He's signed on as general consultant to the Senate campaign of U.S. Rep. Frank Riggs.
Rollins wouldn't respond to a dozen requests for an interview, but Riggs says Rollins helped him craft the hat-in-the-ring speech he delivered last month, which included a Reagan-like promise to "repair and rebuild the moral fabric of American society."
Rollins and Riggs have devised a low-budget, district-by-district campaign that will depend heavily on political favors from fellow representatives, Riggs and his wife Cathy said during recent interviews.
"It's time to move up," Riggs says.
Whatever time it is, the Riggs campaign looks like it could be the famed consultant's swan song.
A recent Field Poll showed only 3 percent of voters would pick Riggs for Senate, making him a distant third among Republican challengers. Democratic incumbent Barbara Boxer, meanwhile, got 42 percent.
Riggs is best known as the chief apologist for the sheriff's deputies who, last year, dabbed pepper spray into anti-logging protesters' eyes at his district office in Eureka. He likes to brag that he helped expose the house banking scandal -- but fails to mention that he was later shown to have written rubber checks of his own. He savages Boxer as part of the "permanent Washington establishment," then, during quieter moments, says, "I really believe electoral office is an ideal forum for public service, and this is a calling of sorts for me."
Most significantly, Riggs' is the poorest campaign in the race. "All the skill in the world is worthless without the money to implement strategy," says Jennifer Duffy, political analyst for the Cook Political Report in Washington.
But a closer examination may reveal weapons valuable to fighting a down-and-dirty, Rollins-style campaign.
Cathy Riggs is widely known as one of the shrewdest political wives in Washington. It was Cathy who first phoned Ed Rollins and convinced him to sign on as consultant to her husband's campaign. "I just gave Ed a call because he's the single best California strategist for a statewide campaign," she says.
During the 1990 congressional elections, former cop Cathy Riggs dug through the personal financial records of Doug Bosco, whom Frank Riggs was challenging for California's first congressional seat. Cathy learned Bosco had ties to failed savings and loans, helping to cinch victory for her husband. In 1994, Cathy found Dan Hamburg had collected unemployment insurance during his 1992 congressional campaign. The further discovery of a Hamburg trust fund put Frank and Cathy back in Washington after a two-year hiatus.
Cathy has since honed her investigative skills by earning a law degree, and recently opened her own political research firm. The Riggs campaign is now creating dossiers on incumbent Sen. Boxer, she says.
"Part of what I would do is cull down whatever the senatorial committee has produced. This book is 2 or 3 inches thick," says Cathy. "I'm one of those people who remember information. When I was a police officer, I would memorize mug shots. And in my business, I'm able to remember things, make connections."
Roy Behr, consultant to Barbara Boxer's Senate campaign, scoffs.
"There is no reason to take Frank Riggs seriously. He has no resources. He has no support," Behr says. "When you hire someone with [Ed Rollins'] checkered background, it tells whether you are willing to do anything to win. It tells whether you are truly desperate."
But Rollins does lend heft -- and a sting -- to a campaign that would otherwise appear to merely float like a butterfly.
His presence also provides fodder for some exciting pre-match speculation: Did Cathy Riggs dish Rollins a piece of dirt the mudmeister simply couldn't resist? Does Rollins see in Frank Riggs the kind of battle-hardened Republican with whom he could launch a new consulting career? Or is Rollins making the same sort of pathetic comeback attempt that has put ellipses at the end of every great boxing career?

Julia Louis-Dreyfus was born January 13, 1961 in New York City. She was cast as a regular on Saturday Night Live in 1982 where she stayed for two seasons. In 1986, she launched her film career, appearing in Hannah and Her Sisters and Soul Man. However, it was Louis-Dreyfus's portrayal of Elaine on Seinfeld that launched her to stardom. In 2002,
"I have no agenda except to be funny. Neither I or the writers profess to offer any worldly wisdom."
"It is, I think, harder for women. I haven't quite figured it out, and all of my women friends haven't figured it out—how the hell do you do this? How do you work and have families?"
"I really do like to work."
"Elaine is just in pain. I think Elaine has become very, very sad woman. She is someone who is in deep need of many hours of analysis and I like to think that I`m not that type of person."
she began starring on the sitcom Watching Ellie, and went on to star on The New Adventures of Old Christine in 2006. In 2012, she debuted on the HBO TV series Veep, playing fabricated U.S. Vice President Selina Meyer. For her Veep performance, she won an Emmy Award (her third) in 2012.
Early Life
Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus was born Julia Scarlett Elizabeth Louis-Dreyfus on January 13, 1961, in New York City. Louis-Dreyfus is best known for her roles on the sitcoms Seinfeld and The New Adventures of Old Christine, and HBO series Veep. Louis-Dreyfus is the great-great-granddaughter of businessman Leopold Louis-Dreyfus, who founded the international Louis Dreyfus Group.
After studying drama at Northwestern University, Louis-Dreyfus began her acting career at Chicago's Practical Theatre Company, and performed with the prestigious Second City comedy troupe. After moving to New York, she was cast as a regular on Saturday Night Live in 1982, where she showcased her comedic talents for the next two seasons.
Award-Winning Actress
In 1986, Louis-Dreyfus launched her film career, appearing in Woody Allen's Hannah and Her Sisters and Soul Man, but it was her portrayal of the fabulously flawed and cynical Elaine Benes on NBC's hit sitcom Seinfeld that launched her to stardom. The New York-centric comedy, also starring Jason Alexander and Michael Richards, was created by Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David, and ran for nine seasons (1989-98). Though the role of Elaine was not part of the show's original concept, NBC producers insisted that Seinfeld needed a feminine perspective. For her performance on the series, she earned a Golden Globe Award in 1993 and an Emmy Award in 1996.
During breaks from Seinfeld, Louis-Dreyfus continued to make films, with uneven results. These included Jack the Bear (1993); Rob Reiner's North (1994); Father's Day (1997), with Billy Crystal and Robin Williams; and Woody Allen's Deconstructing Harry (1997). Additionally, in 1998, she lent her voice for the role of Princess Atta in the computer-animated feature A Bug's Life.
In 2002, Louis-Dreyfus starred on her own NBC sitcom, Watching Ellie. Despite a promising debut, the real-time comedy featuring Louis-Dreyfus as a Los Angeles lounge singer took a dive in the ratings, and was canceled midway through its first season. A revamped version of the show returned to NBC's prime-time lineup in the spring of 2003, but failed to find an audience.

The NNSA was established by Congress in 2000 as a separately organized agency within the U.S. Department of Energy, responsible for the management and security of the nation's nuclear weapons, nuclear nonproliferation, and naval reactor programs.
The NNSA plays a critical role in ensuring the security of our Nation by maintaining the safety, security, and effectiveness of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile without nuclear testing; reducing the global danger from the proliferation of nuclear weapons and materials; providing the U.S. Navy with safe and effective nuclear propulsion; and providing the Nation with an effective nuclear counterterrorism and incident response capability.
The NNSA's nuclear security enterprise spans eight sites, including three national laboratories, with more than six decades of cutting-edge nuclear security experience. That history and technical expertise enables NNSA to accomplish its work across its four mission areas.

Example: Tickle Me Elmo. Sesame Street executives admitted that when they approved Elmo's voice, they knew, deep in their dark hearts, they'd found the one voice most likely to appeal to toddlers and the voice most likely to make anyone over age 4 stick their fingers in their ears and yell, "nah, nah, nah, nah."
You deserve what you get if you buy these toys and hand them over. But here's help for anyone looking to inspire adoration in the little ones and drive mom and dad insane. In no particular order, below are some of the toys that I've hated over the years — those that I pray will never again find a spot beneath my Christmas tree:
1. Really loud toys. My mom once gave my boy this electronic guitar that played six different Wiggles songs really loudly for 10 seconds every time he hit a button. That guitar was not just annoying — it was evil. My boy loved it. When one of the song lyrics got stuck on nonstop instant replay in my head, I decided I'd had enough. I hid the guitar on the top shelf of his closet, hoping he'd forget about the devil's toy. He managed to find it. Ultimately, the batteries expired, and because removing the battery cover and replacing them required a Ph.D. in engineering, I pleaded ineptitude.
2. Messy, sticky toys. Silly String, Slime, Play-Doh, glitter glue, bubbles, etc. I hope Play-Doh is biodegradable because I've tossed enough of it into the landfill over the years to fill a small dump truck. My son recently has been playing with some sticky sand sculpture stuff that doesn't sculpt. However, it fills the small cracks between our wooden floorboards well — though electric blue doesn't really match the oak.
3. Toys that require parents to buy expensive accessories. While a Wii is a generous gift, the video system requires a number of accessories, not to mention games. Unless you've checked with the parents first, don't give their kids a toy that will become a techno-money pit.
4. Toys that shoot. I don't care whether they shoot pingpong balls, foam arrows or potatoes, toys that shoot will be abused by kids. Period. My boy once shot a "soft" plastic arrow into the back of a friend's neck. Luckily, there was no blood, but the dude has wisely avoided my children since then. Though we have a strict "no shooting or throwing any kind of objects at people" rule, it's the one rule that seems impossible to stick to consistently (well, that, and don't hit your sister/brother).
5. Tiny, self-procreating toys, such as beads. You may think beads are made from plastic or glass, but actually they are made from some magical substance that has a magnetic attraction to rugs. Once scattered across the rug, beads blend into the carpet's design, only revealing themselves when stepped on. Though not as painful to the bottom of the bare foot as the Lego shape, beads roll, causing dramatic falls. When you end up in the ER after a bead accident, send the hospital bill to whomever gave your kids the tiny balls of doom.
My name is Edgy Mama, and I have approved the following toys for holiday gifting: books, CDs, non-messy art supplies, video games for already-owned technology, bikes and other riding toys, baseball gloves, and inexpensive, comfortable clothing. Also, even though they fall into the "tiny, self-procreating toys" category, I approve Lego blocks. Because my kids will play with them for hours.
Just call me Grinchy Mama.

But of course, all of those headlines were once again overshadowed by more updates on Chris Brown and Rihanna.
This week, Chris Brown was charged with two felonies stemming from his now-infamous Grammy-weekend altercation with his on/off/on girlfriend, Rihanna. According to an affidavit by L.A. police detective De Shon Andrews read in court Thursday afternoon, Chris and Rihanna got into a fight February 8 in Chris's car, after she read a text message from another woman on his cell phone. The affidavit claimed Chris pulled over and tried to push Rihanna out of his vehicle, then resumed driving while punching her and even biting her on the ear. The affidavit also alleged that Chris later threatened to kill Rihanna, advising her to have the police waiting at her house.So this week, Chris was arraigned on charges of assault likely to cause great bodily injury and making criminal threats. If convicted, he could be sentenced to up to four years and eight months in prison. As of this writing he remains free on $50,000 bail, and he and Rihanna are still a couple after controversially reuniting last weekend at Diddy's Miami mansion.
Rumors have since run rampant in the tabloids that the two have secretly tied the knot, after Chris reportedly proposed to Rihanna at Diddy's Florida compound while begging for her forgiveness. Such gossip remains totally unfounded. But if it's true, Rihanna's attorney's recent announcement--that, if subpoenaed by prosecutors,
Rihanna will testify AGAINST Chris in criminal court--does not bode well for this rumored marriage.Anyway, this week online message boards were inundated with angry opinions regarding Rihanna's decision to stand by the man who allegedly abused her, but Rihanna's father, Ronald Fenty, stood by his child. This week he told Us Weekly: "I love my daughter with whatever road she takes. I'm behind her, win or lose. I will be supportive. If that's the road she wants to choose, I'm behind her. I hope to see her soon. I talked to her after her birthday, and she told me she's OK."
But one R&B star to whom the young Chris Brown has often been compared, Usher, wasn't as nice when he initially commented on the Chrianna situation. Earlier this week, in a viral video posted by producer Jermaine Dupri, Usher blasted Chris for being photographed smiling and jet-skiing in Miami. "I'm a little disappointed in this photo," he said. "After the other photo [of Rihanna's bruised face]? C'mon, Chris. Have a little bit of remorse, man." But a few days later, Usher backpedalled from such cutting remarks, pulling the critical video off YouTube and claiming "the comments made during a recent recording session amongst friends were taken out of context and blown out of proportion. I apologize on behalf of myself and my friends if anyone was offended. The intentions were not to pass judgment and we meant no harm. I respect and wish the best for all parties involved." Moving on...another R&B star who's obviously inspired Chris Brown's recordings, and whose "Wanna Be Startin' Something" was sampled in Rihanna's own "Don't Stop The Music," made headlines this week. We're talking about Michael Jackson, of course. The normally reclusive singer announced at a press conference Thursday, to a crowd of screaming fans and 300 journalists who'd been waiting for him at London's O2 Arena for almost two hours, that he will play a series of concerts--his first since 2001--at the O2 in July. Describing the run of 10 shows as his "final curtain call" before retirement, Michael stated: "This is it. And when I say this is it, I mean this is it." However, a spokesperson for promoter AEG Live told the BBC that the shows might be part of a bigger, final world tour, so the Thriller may not be gone just yet--especially since the famously financially troubled Michael stands to pocket up to $400 million from such a concert venture. Let's just hope these London shows go better than the last time Jacko attempted to perform in London, at the 2006 World Music Awards, when he angered fans by merely whimpering a few lines of "We Are The World" before leaving the stage and letting none other than Chris Brown take over. Meanwhile, Britney Spears, who's scheduled to play eight nights at the O2 Arena in June, continued her own comeback this week by kicking off her first full concert tour in five years in her home state of Louisiana. Performing in a sexy ringmaster outfit surrounded by jugglers and acrobats, Britney made it through the first night of her Circus Tour at the New Orleans Arena with none of the difficulties of her notorious and disastrous 2007 MTV Video Music Awards performance--although she did appear to be lip-synching at times, according to eyewitnesses. But she was lip-synching much better than she did at the 2007 VMAs, so we'll call it a comeback nonetheless!Recent O2 Arena resident Prince (he played a whopping 21 nights there in 2007) also launched his umpteenth comeback this week. Once again a free agent without a major record label deal to tie him down, His Purple Majesty announced this week that he will sell his upcoming triple-disc album set exclusively at Target, for the recession-friendly price of $11.98.
The three-CD bundle will include two new Prince albums, titled MPLSOUND and Lotusflow3r, plus the debut disc by his latest protégé, Bria Valente.And it's a good thing that the Prince collection will be on sale at Target, since one place it won't be available is the Virgin Megastore. Yes, sadly this week it was announced that the remaining six Virgin Megastore locations in the U.S. will shutter their doors by June, and more than 1,000 Megastore employees will be laid off. Following the closure of all longstanding Tower Records franchises in 2006, this latest news marks another major blow for the struggling music retail business.
Perhaps that's why another comeback artist this week, the recently reunited No Doubt, just decided to get creative with the marketing of their music:
Fans who buy premium tickets online for No Doubt's summer 2009 reunion tour will receive a download of the alt/ska/pop group's entire back catalog, plus one new tune, a cover of Adam & The Ants' 1981 classic "Stand And Deliver" (which No Doubt are set to soon perform on Gossip Girl). Tickets go on sale this weekend for the tour, which begins in Atlantic City on May 2 and runs until August.That's very exciting news and all (particularly the part about the Adam Ant homage), but perhaps the most awesomely cranked-to-11 reunion tour news of the week comes from mockumentary metal band Spinal Tap (aka comedic-genius actors Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer), who announced plans for their own 30-city Unwigged And Unplugged Tour this spring/summer.
True, as can be inferred from the tour's title, the actors formerly known as David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnell, and Derek Smalls will be leaving their haystack hairdos and Marshall stacks at home for this trek--"When we were doing the Tap show, it was 90 minutes to 120 minutes of really, really hard work and running up and down the rafters, and we had big special effects, and we played electric instruments, and we had wigs, and we got very sweaty," McKean/St. Hubbins explained to the Associated Press.
But the tour is still sure to provide some heavy duty entertainment. And by going unplugged, Spinal Tap won't have to worry about finding yet another ill-fated replacement drummer!And on that happy, Tappy note, thus concludes another week in music news. Come back next Friday for more headlines (hopefully about something other than Chrianna), and until then, goodnight and good music.

vSphere ESX and ESXi Info Center
VMware vSphere Architectures Compared
vSphere ESX Architecture
In the original VMware® ESX® architecture, the virtualization kernel (referred to as the VMkernel) was augmented with a management partition known as the console operating system (COS or service console). The primary purpose of the COS was to provide a management interface into the host. Various VMware management agents were deployed in the COS, along with other infrastructure service agents (e.g. name service, time service, logging, etc). In this architecture, many customers deployed other agents from third parties to provide particular functionality, such as hardware monitoring and system management. Furthermore, individual admin users logged into the COS to run configuration and diagnostic commands and scripts.
New vSphere ESXi Architecture
In the new VMware vSphere® ESXi™ architecture, the COS has been removed and all of the VMware agents run directly on the VMkernel. Infrastructure services are provided natively through modules included with the VMkernel. Other authorized third-party modules, such as hardware drivers and hardware monitoring components, can run in VMkernel as well. Only modules that have been digitally signed by VMware are allowed on the system, creating a tightly locked-down architecture. Preventing arbitrary code from running on the VMware vSphere® host greatly improves the security of the system.
Architectures Compared
The vSphere Hypervisor Architecture
Learn how vSphere's innovative architecture operates independently from any general-purpose operating system, offering improved security, increased reliability, and simplified management.
- VMware agents run directly on VMkernel.
- Authorized third-party modules can also run in VMkernel. These provide specific functionality.
- Hardware monitoring.
- Hardware drivers.
- VMware components and third-party components updated independently.
- The "dual-image" approach lets you revert to prior image if desired.
- No arbitrary code is allowed on the system.

Koushi Inuzuka is heir to an ancient family tradition of powerful bushido martial arts. Unfortunately for his father, Koushi wants absolutely nothing to do with such dangerous things. His goal is to become an avenging prosecuting attorney, turning him into a bookworm that his father simply can't understand. Still, Koushi finds a great deal of comfort both in his studies and in the structure of law.
Until the day that Momoko Kuzuryu, daughter of another great house, drops into his life and demands that he, the last scion of the strongest family of bushido martial arts, sire a baby with her.
From that moment on, Koushi is forced to think and act faster than ever before as ever-stronger opponents appear to challenge him. The race to stay alive hinges on unlocking memories from his suppressed past and, possibly, unleashing his forgotten physical courage. And somehow, at the center of all those memories, stands Momoko.
How can a wimpy bookworm survive the attention of skilled assassins for long? Then again, his opponents are discovering that some forms of strength have nothing at all to do with muscles or techniques...

Photo: Thinkstock Whenever we went to look at a house, my mother and father talked with the real estate agent or rapped the walls to check for soundness or discussed termite reports while I—5 years old at the time—was bored out of my mind. My parents had moved my 7-month-old sister and me from Chicago to Atlanta, and usually when we went house hunting, the owner had moved long before, leaving nothing behind but Comet cleaning powder in the tub and dusty cans of soup in the cupboards.
One house was different. Its owner was an elderly white woman, and apparently she was too old, too frail, too settled in her stuffed brocaded armchair in the center of the living room to clear out when any prospective buyers came around. She sat there, stroking what seemed at first to be luxurious black fur cuffs but turned out to be a poodle so sedentary it could have been dead and stuffed for all I knew. Her place was the best by far. It was spacious, with young dogwood trees blooming all over the yard, the wraparound porch sporting a swing just outside the front window boxes, which were full of geraniums. Inside, Oriental rugs lay under every constellation of furniture in the living room, and the old white woman sat in the center of the furniture galaxy, breathing her shallow, steady breaths with a look of annoyed patience, as if she'd been forced to sit in her chair while some portraitist finished up the final brushstrokes of his painting. Strangely enough, I liked this about her, and when my parents wanted to tour the upstairs, I said I wanted to pet the dog, and stayed downstairs with the woman. "Where are your kids?" I asked when we were alone. "Grown," she said, the first in a series of single-word sentences, spoken as if she were aware her remaining words were finite, as though she didn't want to waste them on strangers. "Do you have any grandkids?" I asked. "Yes," she said. "How many?" I asked. She looked as if she were about to shrug but then seemed as if she'd decided that shrugging might be more physically taxing than just answering the question. "Nine," she finally said, but said it as if she'd been asked to pick a number between one and ten. "If my mama and daddy get this place, can I play with them?" I asked. "What?" she asked. Perhaps she was deaf. So I yelled, sparing neither my lungs nor her ears, "CAN I PLAY WITH THEM?!" A moment passed, as if she'd had to translate this, then, with startling finality, she said, "No." She didn't shake her head, but something in her eyes looked as if she had. "Why not?" I said. She looked annoyed, as if she'd explained this all to me before. "Well," she said, "you're a colored girl."

Alabama braces again for Texas A&M's speedy tempo

Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban doesn't want his defensive backs watching A&M's electric quarterback when he's flushed from the pocket in Saturday's game. Too many things can happen, and most of them bad. (AP Photo/Dave Martin, File) |
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Alabama coach Nick Saban knows it's become irrelevant whether frenetic, no-huddle offenses are what he wants college football to be.
In the case of No. 6 Texas A&M, they're also awfully hard to slow down.
That is the challenge Saturday for the top-ranked Crimson Tide at the Aggies' Kyle Field. Preparing for this kind of uptempo offense was a focal point for the Tide during the offseason.
Alabama (1-0, 0-0 SEC) was helpless against it in the first quarter of last season's loss to Texas A&M (2-0, 0-0) before catching on and nearly rallying from a 20-0 deficit. The no-huddle offenses have become a staple of the college game — whether Saban likes it or not.
Southeastern Conference opponents Mississippi, Kentucky and Auburn also run variations.
"There's obviously some things you can't do, and you have to realize that you can't do these things," Saban said. "I think we've all adapted to it more and more because we play against these teams more. When you play against it once or twice a year, I think it's a tough adaptation for the players. But we played against it eight or nine times last year. We'll probably play against it at least that much this year, so it's becoming more the norm rather than the exception.
"I think that players should be able to adapt to it more readily. I know that we've tried to prepare our players for it more and more because you always say, `OK, what did we see? How much did we see it? How does our practice reflect that?"'
Saban caused a stir last October when he wondered aloud: "Is this what we want football to be?"
Arkansas coach Bret Bielema and Auburn's Gus Malzahn, who runs his own variation of the no-huddle, offered very different takes at SEC media days about whether fast-paced offenses present an injury hazard to defensive players who can't get relief from subs. Malzahn said he initially thought that theory was a joke and Bielema countered that he's no comedian.
Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin isn't about to downshift.
"We're going to go as fast as we possibly can," Sumlin said. "I haven't seen anything to support the player safety argument. Anything that's within in the rules, that's the way football is. That's any sport. Whether it's baseball and you're stealing bases or whether it's basketball and you're a fast break, full-court press team, that's within the rules.
"Just because you don't want to play that style doesn't mean that that's not the way the game should be played."
It's hard to argue with the results. Sumlin's offenses have ranked in the top three nationally in total yards four of the past five years at Texas A&M and Houston.
Through two games against weaker competition, the Aggies have amassed 117 points and 1,200 yards.
Alabama allowed just 153 points in 14 games last season.
Texas A&M wide receiver Malcome Kennedy said coaches have stressed tempo even more for this game.
"The offense is going to move very fast," said Kennedy, who scored what proved to be the decisive touchdown last season. "Coach has already said that we're focusing on tempo this week. Us being able to run and pass, and we know it got on their nerves last year. So we want to be like that this year and hopefully it will turn out well."
Texas A&M's success on third downs kept the offense sprinting along last season, and Alabama's defense on its heels. The Aggies had three first downs and two touchdowns on its five third-down plays in the first quarter of that 29-24 win. They converted on 11 of 18 tries.
Saban said the Aggies' offensive prowess isn't just about speed.
"To me, it's not the scheme," he said. "It's not the going fast, it's their ability to do those things and execute extremely well in terms of what they do. And their players have a lot of confidence in it and they do a really good job of it."

The following are major Planning & Development projects and reports managed by the Planning & Development Division. The Planning & Development Division focuses on creating or advising waterfront improvement projects which promote maritime industry and commerce, historic preservation, expands waterfront open space and environmental benefits, and generate revenue necessary to achieve such public benefits.
The Port's Waterfront Land Use Plan identified several Waterfront Mixed Use Opportunity Areas where commercial development is encouraged as a part of mixed use developments that also include maritime, open space and public access uses. Such projects are undertaken as public-private partnerships, in which the Port enters into a development agreement and long-term lease with a private developer who is typically selected through a request for proposals process.
The Planning & Development Division is responsible for the administration of these public-private partnership development projects ("public-private projects") from establishing the development concept for these projects through the completion of the development by the private developer partner.
Financial benefits realized by the Port through public-private projects include: infrastructure repairs and improvements, public access and maritime capital improvements, payment of guaranteed and participation rents to the Port, and relief from facility operating and maintenance expenses. In addition to direct financial benefits to the Port, public-private projects produce the following tangible and intangible public benefits:
Most of the Port's facilities constitute significant historic resources, which are deteriorating. Public-private projects enable the Port to save these precious historic resources, rehabilitating them consistent with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation.
Public-private projects generate tax revenue to the City, including possessory interest, sales and parking taxes.
Public-private projects enable the Port to achieve the goals of the Waterfront Plan including its fundamental goal of reconnecting the City with its Waterfront. The resulting revitalization of the waterfront through public-private projects enhances the appeal and enjoyment of San Francisco as a place to live, work and visit.

this made me really happy. i want to be a kid again
nostalgia kicking in
/existenz -
Kinda got your decade wrong. This would have been if you were born in the 80s.
Dude, the only thing people remember is the boombox.
I have no idea of what moronic contry you're from... Oh wait, ofcourse you're an american! -
Of course i can name those 4 shows! The 90's is where it was at. Last hoorah of true rebel culture
I think the "dreamed of being slimed" picture is referring to "You Can't Do That On Television". That show would be more applicable for someone born in the 80's since it stopped airing in 1994, and someone born in 1990 would have been 4 yrs. old when that show went off the air. I remember that show well, one of my favorites to watch when I was a kid (I was born in 77).
Errrr, I want born in 1997. Perhaps you mean "If you were born in the 80s", or "If you were a kid in the 90s".
I was born in '97, but all the "90s stuff" doesn't stop the second it becomes 2000. All this stuff was still around. I was only a toddler in the 90's, but I think the 90's "kid culture" continued well into the 2000's, and describes anyone's childhood who was born the same year as me. Just clearing that up.
You don't remember high mortgage rates ? The early Apple computers? Cheap auto fuel? A time when only idiots and losers and navy guys had tattoos ? The idea that Japan was going to rule the economic world? Bangladesh starving? The ascension of major corporate greed? The idea that the social arts were worthwhile giving way to total business education? A time when middle-class people could afford to go to college?
