TEAMS: Los Angeles Lakers, Brooklyn Nets, Utah Jazz
The Brooklyn Nets reached the postseason for the first time since 2007 after suffering through three-straight seasons of less than 25 wins, including a league-worst 70 losses just four seasons ago. The season, by most standards, would be considered a success, and it happened with an interim coach in PJ Carlesimo. However, a loss in the first round in seven games to a Chicago Bulls team decimated by injuries was not good enough for Russian billionaire-owner Mikhail Prokhorov. Carlesimo was fired over the weekend, and general manager Billy King has been given instructions to shoot high in the coaching search. Those names include legendary coach Phil Jackson, and former Jazz coach Jerry Sloan, according to a report in the NY Post.
Jackson has reportedly stated that he is ready to return to coaching, but he is in the process of serving as a consultant for the Pistons during their head coach search. Anyone would obviously love to land Jackson, but it often is reported that the only two landing spots in his future are the Lakers and the Knicks. However, both appear to be unlikely for the time being. The Lakers appear ready to move forward with Mike D'Antoni for another season, and Mike Woodson has earned another season at the Garden.
Sloan is an interesting choice. He had a hot-and-cool relationship with point guard Deron Williams when they were both in Utah, but Williams appears willing to endorse him. Sloan, himself, recently said that he is ready for a return. He was very successful during his 23-year tenure with the Jazz, missing the playoffs only three times. His two best teams ran into the same problem most other good teams of the 90s did, and that was meeting up with the Jackson-coached Bulls. Some guy named Michael Jordan played a large role in ruining Utah's chances to win an NBA championship. Twice
It is very little surprise that Prokhorov would want to land a big fish like this to lead his team. Ever since becoming owner, he has attempted to move the franchise forward. The Nets spent a lot of money in free agency a year ago and feel they have a team that can compete, though they still desire Dwight Howard in free agency, regardless of the salary cap. But while Prokhorov wants to make a big splash, he is more likely to find himself hiring another retread like Nate McMillan.

Metro Photo Challenge 2013: Global grand prize winners are announced
The results are in! After thousands of photo entries from around the world, Metro is pleased to announce the global winners of Metro Photo Challenge 2013. The quality of the photos this year was absolutely stunning, and the judges had an extremely difficult time selecting the winners. This year, the grand prize-winning photos for the trip to Ghana have been selected from the "Hearing" and "Sixth Sense" categories.
Global grand prize winner
What the jurors say:
Being passionate about children's rights, expressive photos with active children tend to rate high with me. This one is a perfect composition filled with emotions, stories and the real life through a child's point of view. There are some really powerful contrasts to the photo and it will be a pleasure to have this photographer capturing the stories of children and local heroes in Ghana.
—Sara Damber, CEO, Reach for ChangeThis images is great for its spontaneity and charisma. The framing is right on the spot and the photographer has managed to make this simple act of playing an instrument a joy to look at.
—Alejandro Cartagena, photographer, global jury memberThis photo tells a child's start in the road of music as part of his life, this is really good.
—Liu Bolin, photo artistWhen you see a real good picture, you can feel it in your stomach! This is the one I felt from the first time I saw it.
Perfect, from the texts in the backgrund till the colour of the boys face! A winner!
—Urban Brådhe, press photographer, Metro Sweden
Global grand prize winner
What the jurors say:
The cold foggy trees and the dog spotting something lurking in the woods gives me goosebumps… A magical and beautifully shot picture and a true capture of natures different wonders, mysteries and the sixth sense.
—Sara Damber, CEO, Reach for ChangeSo beautiful! And every dog-lover and a few others knows about a dogs sixth sense. It was a very difficult category for the photographers and the jury.
—Urban Brådhe, press photographer, Metro SwedenThe dog uses his instinct to feel the world, so it is really good to describe the sixth sense here. And I think the composition of the photo is good. I really like this.
—Liu Bolin, photo artist
Global individual category winners

November 5, 2011
8:39 am
Led by playmakers Tanard Jackson and Ronde Barber, Tampa Bay's secondary is ready to face Drew Brees again. Three weeks ago in the Buccaneers' 26-20 home win against the Saints, Brees was picked off three times, including once by Jackson.
The Buccaneers may be underdogs when they invade New Orleans for Sunday's game against the Saints, but given the fact that Tampa Bay has won the last two contests at the Superdome and prevailed earlier this year at Raymond James Stadium, 26-20, perhaps they shouldn't be.
The Saints, who are coming off a surprising loss to the previously winless St. Louis Rams, saw quarterback Drew Brees throw a season-high three interceptions in Tampa Bay three weeks ago. Although the Bucs have dropped more interceptions than they have reeled in this season, Tampa Bay has a talented secondary that has helped thwart Brees in three of the last four games, which have been Bucs victories.
In the last four games against Tampa Bay, Brees has completed 104-of-152 passes (68.4 percent) for 1,100 yards with six touchdowns and five interceptions. Yet take away the Saints' lone victory against the Bucs in the last four meetings, a 31-6 drubbing at Raymond James Stadium in 2010, in which Brees was 21-of-32 for 263 yards with three touchdowns and one interception and he has thrown just three touchdowns and four interceptions in the three losses to Tampa Bay.
Brees also had a fumble when sacked by former Bucs defensive end Alex Magee in Tampa Bay's 23-13 win at the Superdome in the 2010 season finale.
The Tampa Bay coaches are famous for saying that Brees will likely carve up the secondary for 300 yards given how much the Saints throw the ball. He passed for 383 yards when the two teams met three weeks ago. The key is forcing Brees to turn the ball over.
"Really, we should look at the average per pass, because he is going to probably throw for 300 yards," Bucs defensive backs coach Jimmy Lake said. "But if his average per pass is below seven [yards] that's okay. If it's above that, we have issues. They put the ball in the air so many times he is bound to get his yards. At the end of the day, hopefully the New Orleans Saints have less big plays than we do. That's what matters."

Category: Science Fiction Description: Love transcends. This doesn't hold truer than in this pulp classic by Jack Williamson. Melvin Dane has been seeing a vision of a green girl since he was a child. Images of her came over the ether. Is she just fantasy? Or a reality that managed to cross time and space? And now, with the Earth under threat of extinction, will Melvin ever meet that girl of his dreams? With an alien force trying to bring Earth back to the Ice Age, Melvin and his foster father, scientist Sam Walden, embarked on a heroic quest to save their world. Their adventures took them from their sleepy little cottage in the beaches of Florida to the unexplored and totally unexpected world beneath the ocean. There, Sam and Melvin find what they are looking for, and more. Sam meets the alien force trying to kill humanity, and Melvin meets the love of his life, the one girl he has been dreaming of since he was a child. In their quest for redemption for the Earth they call home, both of them would find the love that would change their lives forever. Sam has made a machine that can travel anywhere--in land, air, and water--and based on Sam's calculations, they trace the alien force to somewhere in the Magyar Deep, 50,000 feet into the ocean. Deep below, they find an alien world, full of strange creatures, and stranger vegetation. In their quest to find and end the hostile power, Sam and Melvin meet creatures that would change their lives. Melvin would finally meet the Green Girl, a vision he has been seeing since he was a child, and Sam would find companionship and love with a pet, a flying plant that he named Alexander. Together, the four of them would decide the fate of two worlds. eBook Publisher: Wonder Audiobooks, LLC/Wonder eBooks, Amazing Stories Mundania eBookstore Release Date: August 2010

At high noon on May 4, 1999, the sun! It had risen bright and clear. The summer sky had had an unwonted liquid brilliance. The climbing day-star had shone all the morning with unusual intensity. But just at ten o'clock, an intangible mist obscured the sky! A pale and deepening film stole over the crystal infinity of the heavens! The sky assumed a dull, almost copper tinge, that developed into a ghastly scarlet pall! In five minutes the sky changed from a soft and limpid blue to an intense, darkling scarlet! In the appalling suggestion of blood in the dusky crimson depths, there was a grim omen of the fate of earth!
I had got up at dawn for a plunge in the surf, and all the morning I had been wandering about the bit of beach and the strip of virgin woodland behind it, content in the restful, soothing peace of that untouched bit of Nature, rejoicing lazily in the vivid greenness of it, in the fresh odors of earth and plant, in the whisper of the wind in the palms. I lounged on the crisp grass in the cooling shade, living in my sympathy with the life about me, watching the long soft rollers of the green-blue Atlantic surging deliberately toward the crystal whiteness of the sunlit sandy beach. The soft cerulian skies were clear, save for the white wings of occasional airships that glanced in the bright sunshine. The morning had a singularly quiet and soothing beauty. My sleepy soul was in harmony with the distant mellow chime of a church bell. I lay back in the peaceful rest of a man ready to sink lazily into the evening of life.
Though I am still an able man of somewhat less than thirty years, I felt that morning none of the energetic exuberance of youth. I felt something of the age and the agelessness of Nature herself. I felt no fires of ambition; I was oddly devoid of feeling or emotion; I felt content to steep my soul for eternities in Nature's simple wonders. But I have always been a dreamer.
I was a worshipper come unknowingly for the last time to the shrine of life. For even then the doom was gathering! But I was spared all knowledge of the alien menace that was blotting out the sun! I had no premonition that within a few short hours the balmy Florida coast would be a frozen wilderness, whipped with bitter winds and lashed with freezing seas!
I had risen at last, and was sauntering down the hard white sand in the direction of our cottage, listening idly to the birds--singing on the eve of their doom. I came in sight of the house, a low building, covered with climbing vines and half hidden in the trees. I strolled toward it upon the narrow, curving gravel walk, lost in the peace of the rustic setting.
The Doctor was sitting on the small veranda, gazing sleepily out over the sea, with his pipe in his mouth and his hands on the arms of his chair. Dr. Samuel Walden was the sole person in the world, outside the vivid creations of my dreams, for whom I had affection. He was an unusual character. Born in 1929, he was now seventy years of age. His earlier life had been devoted to science, and he had won fame and fortune for himself by the invention of the hydrodyne sub-atomic engine. But in the last twenty years he had done no scientific work--or so I thought, for I had never been behind the little door that he kept always locked.
A close friend of my parents, he had been more than a father to me since they were lost in the turmoil of the last outbreak against the Council of Nations, when I was three years old. We had always lived in the old cottage on the hill, in this natural park on the Florida coast. He loved Nature deeply. For many years his chief interests in life had been plants and animals, for which he cared more than for society. A flower, a dog, the sound of the surf--such things were the joys of his life.
Though his hair had been white for many years, his lean, tanned face was unwrinkled, and he was among the strongest men of my acquaintance. In fact, two years before, he had won second place at the Olympic wrestling contests. He loved the simple things of life. He had a passion for cooking, and he made it a science as well as an art. He was an inveterate smoker, and clung to the habit, even when he had to have the tobacco smuggled in from Asia at vast expense. He had an old music box, of a type that went out of date half a century ago, to which he used to listen for hours on end.
There was little enough about Sam Walden's daily life to show that he was the greatest scientist of the earth, and the sole hope for the world in the amazing battle that was brewing. His simple philosophy had changed him far from the energetic young inventor of the hydrodyne. No one would have suspected the qualities of supreme heroism that he revealed.
During the days of my youth we had restlessly wandered over the globe. We had lived rather aimlessly--for the simple joy of living. The mountains, the desert, and the sea have always had a fascinating call for both of us, and we wandered in answer to that call--and during some of those years, I traveled on a strange quest of my own.
But it was a whole decade since we had left our rustic home. And as our latter years had been quiet and tranquil, so the world had lost the fierce energy and struggle for advancement, that had driven it during Sam's younger days. It had settled down to the enjoyment of peaceful content. Science had turned from the invention of new machines to the improvement of those in existence, and had died with their perfection, until, when the crisis came, Sam was the only man on earth able to understand and to cope with it!
The industrial organization had been perfected. Work was done by machines. Men attended them for short hours and played through long ones. There were no rich, and no poor. The products of industry were fairly divided. All men received their shares in content and enjoyed them to the full, without troubling themselves about the question of science or religion or of life that had received the attention of the past generation.
And upon the peaceful tranquility of that happy, prosperous age, there fell with no warning the lurid doom that no man could explain, throwing it into frenzied confusion. In the past era, there would have been a thousand men to attack the problem, with all the power of clear, dynamic minds. Now, there was just one man who could understand!
It was not so much that scientific knowledge was lacking. Men still studied and talked the language of science. The machines demanded it. But there were none of trained and penetrating minds, used to departing boldly from the world of the known to bring forth the new. Science was no longer living. It was mechanical.
I have said that I am a dreamer, living more truly in my fancy than in the world. Perhaps my imagination is abnormally developed. Always I have had new worlds awaiting me in my dreams, to which I could retire when life was dull or unattractive. My visions have always had a singular reality, such a definite concreteness, that it sometimes seemed to be the truth.
The old wonder stories of Wells and Verne, and of the pseudoscientific writers of the first part of this century have always appealed to me. I had a vast collection of ancient volumes and tattered magazines, full of those old stories, which I read and reread with passionate interest. The rest of the world had forgotten them with the passing of the age of science, but I found in them the priceless food of fancy.
Psychologists say that many children have dream companions of some kind. They are very real entities of the child's imagination, playmates of fancy. They usually fade and are forgotten as the adolescent child becomes absorbed in the activities of life, and the imagination atrophies.
Since the days of my earliest recollections, I have visited in the world of my dreams a wonderful playmate. It is a girl, with dark brown hair, deep, warm violet eyes, and clear skin, so I thought, slightly tinged with green, though the lips were very red. I have always thought that she was very beautiful, and she has always been very real to me.
And the vision did not fade as the years went by! Still I visited the Green Girl, as I called her, in my fancy, and she replaced many of the normal childhood interests that I might have had. It is because of her that I have always been happiest while I was silent and alone, it is because of my dreams that I have been inclined to avoid the society of others.
The strange world of dreams in which I visited her was very real to me, a place of weird wonders, sometimes of alien terrors, in which the Green Girl and I wandered through interminable, astounding adventures. And I have always had an unaccountable persuasion that it was a real world, somewhere, through which my mind roamed in such delightful fancies!
It was twenty years ago, when I was just five years old, that the Green Girl first came into my dreams. Sam had rigged up, for my edification, an old fashioned radio set, with headphones. In the long, lonely silences of the warm Florida nights, when a less indulgent guardian would have had me in bed, I sat up with those old phones on my ears, exploring the ether, feeling near the infinite mystery of space. I listened with childish intentness to the odd noises of the static, eagerly dreaming of calls from other planets.
It was during one of those long still nights that I first entered that world of fancy, and found--the Green Girl! It seemed that I heard first a cry of delight in a silver voice, and then she was with me. She was but a tiny sprite, smaller than myself. She seemed to stand before me, smiling at me, tossing her dark curls, with the light of bright intelligence in her blue-violet eyes. I loved her from the first. She was very beautiful. Her skin had just a tinge of green, like a tinted photograph; it did not seem a strange color. The vision was very real to me.
When she spoke--and I half imagined her words were really coming over the ether--there was a childish lisp in her voice, but still a ring of confidence and courage. Her words were strange, but I soon grew to sense their meaning, almost by intuition. Night after night, when I put on the phones and tuned in on the strange noises of the ether, that vision came back. It was not long before I could speak that strange tongue as fluently as I could speak English.
With childish reserve, I told Sam nothing about my wonderful dream, until one day he heard me chattering in the language I had learned. He questioned me eagerly; and I shyly told him all about it, and even supplied material for a grammar of the language. He took a keen scientific interest in the matter, when he learned that the vision came only over the radio, and he began to formulate theories of telepathic suggestion and mind control by ether waves.
The matter was written up by a prominent psychologist to whom he reported it. The account appeared in a well known scientific magazine, with comments upon the strange language, which, oddly enough, bore not the slightest similarity to any known tongue, and appeared rather too perfect to be credited to the invention of a five-year-old. The writer mentioned Sam's ideas, that I had established telepathic contact with another planet, or perhaps with the far-distant past or future; but theories of mind reading received little welcome in a day when science was dormant, and even the suggestion that the language, because of its simplicity, power, and labial beauty, would become the long-sought international tongue, was soon completely forgotten.
But I did not forget the Green Girl. The conviction grew upon me that she was a real living entity. To find her became my ruling passion. Under Sam's tutelage I poured over geographical accounts, searching in vain for some clue to a hidden nation. But the fact that the language seemed to have no sister tongue on earth discouraged that. Between my tenth and fifteenth years Sam and I restlessly scoured the globe in search of a clue, but a decade before we had given it up.
I turned to dreams of interplanetary travel, with a passionate desire to explore space and venture to other worlds in search of my dream girl; but the space flier seemed as far in the future as it had done a hundred years before. To please me, however, Sam helped design and construct a model of a machine we called the Omnimobile--because it should be able to travel in all elements.
But, as the years of my early manhood passed, I slowly relinquished all hope of finding the Green Girl in fact, and resolved to content myself with her companionship in fancy. It was then, too, that I developed my inordinate fondness for scientific romances which I devoured insatiably to feed my dreams. It was only during the first few years that I could find her only over the radio. As time went by, she became an inseparable companion of my mind.
Once, for a time, I tried to lose myself in science. I had Sam teach me chemistry, but that could not replace my dreams.
Together, the Green Girl and I went through ten thousand fantastic adventures. It was as if our two minds met in the world of dreams jointly created by both of us. Certainly it was influenced by the incidents of my life, and by the wonder tales I read. And the girl told me stories, strange and thrilling narratives they were, of mythical heroes of her race that struggled with weird terrors.
She grew up with myself, until she became a princess of incomparable beauty. Often I have wished that I were a gifted painter, that I might have tried to record her charms, but even if I had been such, her perfection would have discouraged my efforts. She was slender, erect, combining an unconscious dignity of poise with vivacious spriteliness of manner. Her hair was soft and curly and brown. Her pale green skin was very soft; her full lips very red. And her sparkling violet eyes were clear and honest--bright wells of human sympathy.
Could I believe that such a supernal being was merely a dream?

I bought this set for my up coming wedding on July 24 and I can say that I'm impress. I was planning on buying a more expensive set thinking that "the more expensive the better the quality", but after reading the reviews on this item I decided to go for it. I just received it last week and I am amaze at how beautiful it is. It's very sturdy, the details on the handles are just perfect and gorgeous, and the engraving is absolutely stunning. I could not ask for more and the price is ridiculously low for the quality and the beauty of this set. One word of advise DO NOT pay more for other sets, this one is half the price and absolutely stunning and elegant without the price tag... Plus you will only use it once and most of your guest won't be close enough to appreciate the details you feel in love with...lol..

Great Server Set

About Me Bride
Comments about The Knot Heart-handle Cake Knife & Server Set:
We used this set at our wedding reception and I couldn't be happier with the product. The overall style is fairly simple, but the heart shaped handles add a special touch. The pieces feel very weighty (in a good way!) and the finish was great. We got them personalized and were so glad we did. It added a nice touch to the cake cutting pictures.

Engraving was very nice, and they are heavier than I expected. I think they are a great quality for the money. Arrived timely as well.

We picked these out for my FMIL to buy us for Christmas. I was really afraid they were not going to be nice quality because they were so cheap, but they are stunning. The engraving is beautiful, except for the "and" sign looks a little funny, but that could be the font we picked. It doesnt look bad, though! I cannot wait to use these on our wedding day!

Feb 14 (Reuters) - MetLife Inc, the largest U.S. life insurer, said it has received approvals from the U.S. Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to deregister as a bank holding company.
The company started the process of dropping the registration after closing the sale of its deposit-taking business to a unit of General Electric's GE Capital last month.
MetLife shares were down 2.5 percent at $36.58 on the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday, a day after the company posted a 90 percent fall in quarterly profit.

"We Got Next"
Tearaway, Knack, and Puppeteer. PS Vita, PS4, and PS3 are all getting new platformers. All of which look very very good.
Tearaway is Vita Exclusive and uses all of the Vita's unique features.
Knack is PS4 exclusive and will be a launch title to show off the PS4's strong capabilities. Knack will be playable on Vita through PS4's Gakai streaming.
Puppeteer is a PS3 exclusive as of now, but I don't see why they couldn't port it to Vita and PS4.
Which one are you looking forward to the most?

I am looking forward to ALL of those games, even Tearaway, though I'll never get it because I don't buy hand-helds.
Puppeteer looks beautious. It will be one of the last PS3 titles I get for sure before making the jump to PS4.
Knack...I will play the hell out of that game on launch. I love platformers about as much as tail.

We haven't seen anything but a trailer. If the vibe and style that the game was giving off doesn't mesh with someone's personal tastes, I could see him thinking it looked awful. Conversely, you could as easily have asked: How did it look good?
As for the games: I was excited when I read this thread title, and was expecting a reveal of characters that might come to match Jak, Sly, Ratchet, Crash, Croc, etc.
I don't think any of these games save maybe Knack have a chance of doing that. Tearaway looks like it might be fun. It also looks like it will be shoving a few gimmicks down our throats. From what little I've seen of Puppeteer, it looks like a boring run-of-the-mill PSN platformer with a graphical budget behind it.
03-26-2013 #11
Easily answered. It looks good because it looks on par with some Dreamworks or Pixar movies, and thus looks easily better than every single game this generation.
03-26-2013 #12
And yet not everyone is a fan of the styles presented in Dreamworks and Pixar animations. You yourself mentioned your dislike for the child-as-savior trope presented in Ni No Kuni, and that it was enough to dissuade you from picking it up. I really like how Knack looks, but the art style is unique enough where it can draw some in as easily as it could push others away.
There's also the issue of us only having an idea of the gameplay rather than anything tangible to base our opinions off. We have our imaginations to guide us. I'm on your side, and think it looks promising. But I can see why others might not yet be convinced.Last edited by Forcedme; 03-26-2013 at 17:23.

I don't give a shit if its a distaste for the design choice. That's fine.
But I need to hear a reason for it, because I'm completely baffled. Why? Because the first impression to me is that he thinks it looks awful graphically. That is the default reaction for that kind of phrasing that he used. If he thinks that, he is wrong. Flat out. There can be no opinion there, unless he's playing some games from the future.
If the art-style is what does not appeal to him, then all is fair.
03-27-2013 #14
Tearaway will probably be the best game out of them all, and get the best reviews.
The problem? I don't have a Vita.

I voted for Knack before but now that I think about it I'm actually more interested in Tearaway. I thought the game looked very unique.

Signs and symptoms of pheochromocytomas may include:
These signs and symptoms develop because this type of tumor produces an excess of chemical compounds called catecholamines. Excessive secretion of catecholamines — the hormones adrenaline (epinephrine) and noradrenaline (norepinephrine) — can lead to persistent high blood pressure or wild fluctuations in your blood pressure, depending on whether the catecholamines are released continuously or in shorter bursts. The intermittent release of these hormones can cause other symptoms to occur from time to time as well.
Although high blood pressure is a common sign of a pheochromocytoma, most people with high blood pressure don't have a pheochromocytoma.
For some people, imaging studies, such as CT scans, done for another reason, may catch a pheochromocytoma before it produces symptoms. You may not have signs or symptoms if your pheochromocytoma is associated with a genetic condition, such as multiple endocrine neoplasia, type II (MEN II), because it's likely to be found on a scan before symptoms start.

Glenn had big ideas when he and Gary started their joint cartoon, imagining the brothers would punch the clock together and work side-by-side in the same studio. He even reorganized his home studio space to install an extra drawing board and computer.
Baby brother's hopes were dashed, however, when he realized Gary is usually getting out of bed around the time he breaks for lunch.
"I joke, it's like having a brother in Europe," he said.
Glenn has to wait until 4 p.m. to phone Gary about work. Their houses are only a few miles apart, but they live in completely different biological time zones.
They do work together, however. Glenn said he and Gary talk every day to bounce ideas around and ask each other's advice.
"We show each other the cartoons after we're done and laugh at them," Glenn said. "When we do our cartoons we're not trying to fill any niche. We're really just drawing what makes us laugh."
Sometimes the jokes are based on things that happen to the brothers in real life. Glenn carries a notepad around, so he's always ready when inspiration strikes. He keeps a notepad on his nightstand, too, in case the muses decide to wake him up. Sometimes, he just begins doodling and ideas "sprout out."
Gary's writing process sounds as unconventional as his sleep schedule and office hours.
"He said 'I've found if I sit and I'll laugh out loud, then I'll backtrack and try to think of something that would make me laugh.' That's the most messed up writing style I've ever heard of," Glenn said.
But it works.
The National Cartoonists Society gave "The Flying McCoys" the award for "Best Newspaper Panel Cartoon" in 2011. Glenn said he and Gary also get many letters from fans, plus a lot of support on Facebook.
"It's gratifying. I feel really lucky," he said. "('Peanuts' creator Charles) Shultz had a quote - Gary told me about this - Shultz told him, he doesn't like to refer to what he does as work. He feels so lucky, he doesn't want to bring bad luck down on him.
"It definitely beats digging a ditch."
And, coming from a man who works alongside a bar bouncer-turned-black humor cartoonist, we'd better believe him.

Disney's Yacht Club Resort at Walt Disney World
Guest Post by Leigh Caldwell of ThemeParkMom.
New Englanders may experience a sense of déjà vu upon checking into Disney's Yacht Club Resort. After a long flight (or waayyyy longer drive), you arrive at the gates of your hotel at Mickey's house and it's a … Martha's Vineyard seaside home! In Florida! At Walt Disney World!
Once you get over the initial feeling that the Yacht Club may be out of place, though, you start to notice just how well Disney has replicated the "summer in New England" feel. This luxury hotel was designed by architect Robert A.M. Stern, who is best known for – you guessed it – East Coast seaside homes.
The spacious lobby is your first experience with the hotel's nautical theme, with wooden floors, lots of brass fixtures and staff members in navy blue blazers. The whole thing has such a relaxing feel that I think I let out an audible sigh or two at the front desk.
The Guest Rooms at Disney's Yacht Club Resort
That nautical theme carries through to the guest rooms, which have nautical themed bedding and fixtures. A mirror with a carved "rope" border is finished at the top with a sailor's knot in the shape of Mickey's famous ears.
Rooms at Disney's Yacht Club are equipped with dorm-size refrigerators, desks and lots of drawer space. Disney clearly thought through the idea that a family of four might need to unpack a week's worth of clothes in a guest room.
I was particularly impressed with the double sinks and mirror area of the guest rooms. Double sinks are wonderful for families trying to get up and out early to go to the Walt Disney World theme parks.
One of my biggest complaints with hotels in general is the precious little space allotted to spread out your makeup and other necessities on hotel bathroom vanities, but that's not the case here. There is a wide ledge and shelves under the sinks to store toiletries.
Of course, there are 34 resort hotels at Walt Disney World. Why choose a stay at Disney's Yacht Club Resort?
In my opinion, there are two major things that distinguish the Yacht Club from other resorts on Disney property.
Location, Location, Location
First, is the hotel's location. The Yacht Club and its siamese twin, Disney's Beach Club Resort, sit on the shores of Crescent Lake. That means EPCOT's International Gateway Entrance – the one nearest the "World Showcase" area of the theme park – is just a walk or short boat ride away. Disney's Hollywood Studios is also accessible by boat, and Disney's Boardwalk, with restaurants, carnival games and nightclubs, is directly across the lake, just a short walk or boat ride away.
Buses will take you to other Walt Disney World recreation areas, but this proximity to two of Disney's theme parks and the many choices for food outside of the park at the Boardwalk make Disney's Yacht Club one of the most convenient places to stay at Walt Disney World.
Taking A Dip
But the best part of this hotel? The pool. Well, it's more than a pool, really. Stormalong Bay has three lagoon areas, including one for younger kids. There's a life-sized shipwreck there, with water slides built into it. The bottom of the pool is covered in sand, which makes it completely unique in my book. I've never seen anything like it.
There is a full slate of activities planned each day at Stormalong Bay, including sand-castle building contests, dance parties, karaoke and kid's crafts. On the "beach" built on the shore of Crescent Lake, there is a campfire every night, followed by a movie shown on a large, outdoor screen. If you choose to stay at Disney's Yacht Club Resort on your next Walt Disney World vacation, be sure to schedule a day to stay at the resort and play in this amazing recreation area.
The biggest drawback I saw at the Yacht Club is one that carries through nearly every Walt Disney World hotel: These places are sprawling, and that means there could be a lot of walking between your room and the lobby. Be sure to look for alternate paths. While I had to snake through four hallways to get to my room from the hotel lobby, my walk was significantly shorter when I went down the nearest stairwell and cut across the pool area to get there.
The Yacht Club hotel is considered a "deluxe resort" at Walt Disney World. It offers a health club, spa and restaurant choices from a quick bite to a formal steakhouse. Prices start at $335 per night.

That's not far from reality.
Two more of the bits of advice he offered in "Unfit to print: The secrets that journalists never told you, until now [1]," his "Below the Beltway" column on the back page of the December 13 Washington Post Magazine:
♦ Remember always that your word is your bond. "Off the record" means off the record, unless it's something you can use to embarrass a Republican.A parody?
♦ Never, ever write directly about the mandatory class you took in journalism school in how to give aid and comfort to America's enemies at home and abroad, or the seminar in how to disrespect the memories of our fallen heroes. These classes are a fraternal secret, like Skull and Bones.
Eric Shansby provided a "scale of justice" illustration (larger image) [2] showing a journalist pressing his finger down in favor of a Democratic donkey over a Republican elephant.
