HAVE YOU EVER NOTICED THAT WHEN JOURNALISTS ATTACK BLOGS they usually seem to make some sort of stupid, glaring error that completely undercuts their point?
That's what the Toronto Star did in attacking Stefan Sharkansky. Despite it being right there in print (well, pixels) columnist Antonia Zerbisias managed to attribute to Stefan a quote that was actually by an anonymous commenter.
Was it utter, unforgivable sloppiness -- or actual, deliberate malice?
Who cares? It's more proof that having an editor and a paycheck doesn't make you God. Or, apparently, even minimally competent.
But as Stefan points out, it can make you popular with Holocaust deniers.
UPDATE: Spoons says I'm wrong:
Zerbisias attributed the quotes as what is being said on web logs and web forums. His attributions were correct. He never attributed the quotes to any particular individuals, and I don't think he made an error at all, much less an error as horrible as you suggest.
Well, it's true that Zerbisias said that the statement appeared "on usefulwork.com," and that, literally, it did, though as a comment. But to say that something appeared "on" a blog is pretty obviously attribution to the blog's author, in my opinion. You could say that, literally, that's not necessarily the case and that everything in the comments is "on" the blog, but that kind of attribution is only fair if it's fair to attribute things said in letters to the editor to the newspapers they appear in. (Er, and I think Zerbisias is a she.)

What's a WWI 1911 Worth?
The 1911A1 DID replace the 1911 as the 'standard gun'. But the government didn't just throw away all the older guns. As time went on, many were 'rebuilt' with 1911A1 parts, like the newer sights (slightly bigger and the rear notch square) and the shorter trigger and so on. But the frames were not (to my knowledge) milled out for the trigger access.
Some weren't fiddled with hardly at all.
Many were surplused out and sold on the civilian market, back when the government tried to save tax money instead of waste it willy-nilly. (Of course, that hacked off Colt, who didn't get to sell as many new commercial made pistols - but somebody is always crying about something.)
I have one such. It is a 1911 frame and slide, with Remington - UMC markings; but it has been remade into a hardball target gun. It still has the wide beavertail hammer and long trigger. I removed the adjustable sights and put fixed sights back on it - they are however a bit wider and just a bit higher than the originals. It shoots very well and will shoot hardball, wadcutters and Federal Hydra-Shok very well.
I've had it for years and the price would be meaningless.
I have a second 1911 I recently purchased for about $1000. The serial number runs in the 50,000 range; but it appears to have been arsenal refinished; it is the gray color of parkerizing rather than the commercial blue of the early pistols. Also, the rear sight has been replaced, but the front seems to be the original thin version. The original grips were gone and replaced with the brown plastic GI grips of the 1911A1. I found some replica diamond grips and put them on for old time's sake. It still has the original style hammer and short tang grip safety. It has been carried and used. The edges and high spots are worn from being holstered and carried. This picture is the second pistol, still with the plastic grips. (By the way, the plastic grips work well, even if not 'cool'.)
It shoots well and I'm proud to have and carry it.

For Immediate Release February 14, 2013 Released By: Parks and Recreation |
For More Information Contact: Parks Department firstname.lastname@example.com |
The Boston Parks and Recreation Department has announced that a limited number of 2013 season permits are now available for the City of Boston's two municipal golf courses - the William J. Devine Golf Course at Franklin Park and the George Wright Golf Course in Hyde Park.
As a season permit holder, golfers are entitled to advance tee time preference, free greens fees, and access to two of the region's finest golf courses. The Parks Department offers resident, non-resident, senior, and junior permits with a limit of 250 permits issued at each course on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Boston's golfers have a direct link to the City of Boston's two municipal courses at the website www.cityofbostongolf.com which provides pricing and a downloadable application for the season permit. Both courses are owned and operated by the City of Boston through the Fund for Parks and Recreation and feature full pro shops, concessions, cart rentals, and lessons for all ages. The golf courses can be followed on Twitter @FranklinParkGC' and @GeorgeWrightGC.
Founded in 1938, the 18-hole Donald Ross-designed George Wright Golf Course is a hidden gem in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Boston. The course is open seven days a week through November. This par 70 layout measures 6,440 yards from the back tees and is a challenge to golfers of any level.
The second-oldest public golf course in America, the William J. Devine Golf Course at Franklin Park measures 5,961 yards from the blue tees. Part of the historic Emerald Necklace, the golf course offers a pleasant inner-city golfing experience only minutes from downtown Boston and is open year-round, weather permitting.
Last year, the nationally-recognized George Wright Golf Course was chosen for two major events: the local qualifying round for the 2012 U.S. Golf Association Amateur Public Links Championship, and the 2012 Massachusetts Golf Association Amateur Public Links Championship.
The George Wright was recognized in 2011 as "Best Public Golf Course" by Boston Magazine in its 38th annual "Best of Boston" awards issue. The magazine noted that the George Wright offers "a fun, fair test with lots of elevation changes, and there might not be finer back-to-back holes in the state than the 9th and 10th."
More recognition came in the fall of 2011 from Golfweek which included the George Wright in its list of the "10 Best Courses You Can Play In Massachusetts." Golf Digest named the William J. Devine Golf Course as one of their "Best Places to Play" three years in a row.

I've been craving my mom's bran muffins lately so last night I found her old recipe card tin and went through it. I had to retype it (so I could read it, you know it's a good recipe when it's got so many smudges and water marks etc. that it's looking a little worn) so I thought I would post it.
I remember when my mom got the recipe (from her friend Marge) when I was a kid because up until then, if it was bran I wasn't having barfy bran. She made them and I have loved them and anything else bran ever since although I have never had a bran muffin that I liked as much as these ones. The reason I thought some others might like the recipe is you can make up a batch and it keeps in the fridge for 6 weeks. So you can bake them as you need them. I wish all cooking was like that..big batches of salad, roast, or whatever just good for a month or more so you don't have to prepare stuff everyday.
Marge's Bran Muffins
2 cups 100% bran
2 cups boiling water (add to bran and set aside)
3 cups raisins covered with boiling water for 5 minutes (doesn't say but I assume you pour off the extra water after)
Mix the following with the bran
1 cup of butter or margarine
2 or 3 cups of sugar
4 beaten eggs
3 tbsp molasses
2 cups sour milk (to make add 2 tbsp vinegar and .5 tsp soda to milk)
Add & blend till mixed
5 cups flour mixed with
4.5 tsp soda
Bake 20 minutes at 350 - 400. (depends on muffin size and oven, this recipe is from a time when muffins where not the huge type we see now).
Dough may be left covered in the fridge for up to 6 weeks and baked as needed. Never stir the dough once made.
BTW my mom ended up using whole wheat flour and substituting some other more healthy ingredients (instead of sugar and fat) but I have no idea what she did as far as adjustments.
I'm going to try these today. Seeing as the kids are home, and baking is a good way to keep them busy. thx again for sharing
Wow - this is so similar to my Mom and Grandma's muffin recipe. I think I will have to make some tonight! Seeing this has brought back so many memories of them. My mom just put rasins in, my grandma would put all sorts of dried fruits but I just like them plain, warm with a bit of butter. Our recipe is probably 25 years old - Soooo good.
Yummy!! Sounds a lot like the bran muffins my grandma used to make :) Thanks for sharing :)
ooh, yum. Thanks for sharing your treasured recipe. I have bran, I have raisins, I have molasses...I can make these now!
Thanks DBD I was going to ask for favourite Bran Muffin recipe I have a craving for them.

Mississippi State's New Offense Still Needs Work
Posted: 9:02 PM Apr 6, 2012
Reporter: Associated Press
STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) -- Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen
wasn't quite sure if his defense was that good or his offense was
that bad.
Regardless, he did know one thing after Friday's first full
scrimmage of spring workouts: There's still a lot of work to do.
"I don't know that I ever get to really be happy after a
scrimmage," Mullen said.
It wasn't all bad for Mullen's revamped offense that includes
new starting quarterback Tyler Russell and new feature running
backs LaDarius Perkins and Nick Griffin. There were a few
encouraging signs -- like Russell's two touchdown passes and no
turnovers during the nearly 150-play scrimmage -- but there were
also dropped passes, bad reads and ineffective stretches that
plagued the marathon 2 1/2 hour scrimmage.
In other words, the kind of things that won't allow Mississippi
State to win in the ultra-competitive Southeastern Conference
Western Division that includes Alabama, Auburn, LSU and Arkansas.
"I want to see cleanness and consistency ... I think only four
of our 13 drives had more than one first down and you can't have
that," Mullen said. "That's not moving the ball. That's not
playing the field position the game. Obviously, the defense really
Russell unofficially completed 22 of 44 passes for 218 yards and
two touchdowns during Friday's scrimmage. The 6-foot-5 junior from
Meridian, Miss., played quite a bit last season while splitting
time with senior Chris Relf, but now that Relf is gone, Russell
will play a much more prominent role.
Backup Dak Prescott completed 17 of 32 passes for 226 yards and
two touchdowns.
Russell started out with a crisp first drive on Friday,
completing 5 of 7 passes for 65 yards, including a 14-yard
touchdown pass to Chris Smith.
But then the Bulldogs bogged down.
It wasn't all the fault of the offense. Mississippi State's veteran defense had something to say about it too.
Senior linebacker Cameron Lawrence discussed the defense's good day as the offense ran sprints in the background -- which was
punishment for losing.
"We had a chip on our shoulder," Lawrence said. "We didn't
want to be doing what they're doing right now."
The Bulldogs are replacing a few key starters on defense, but
still return veterans like defensive tackle Josh Boyd, cornerbacks
Johnthan Banks and Corey Broomfield and Lawrence. It's a group
that's played together for four years, so it's not particularly
surprising they were usually a step ahead of the younger offense.
Mullen was pleased that the defense is starting to develop some
depth and that there's not such a huge difference between the first
and second unit.
"You watch the top teams in this league and they're rolling two
or three deep in on game day," Mullen said. "So we want to get to
that point eventually. You're starting to see guys get there."
But Russell wasn't using that as an excuse.
"We stop ourselves," Russell said. "The defense played well
today, but there's nothing we haven't seen. We've just got to come
out here and be on the same page."
Mullen has tweaked Mississippi State's offense some in the
offseason to take advantage of Russell's strong arm. Offensive
coordinator Les Koenning said Russell's biggest challenge is
learning the right time to take his shots downfield.
"The thing we've got to work with Tyler is the management of
the game," Koenning said. "He gets to where he wants to make a
big play, and you've just got to be patient. It's about moving the
football, getting first downs, and taking your shots when you

Britney, Demi want more X Factor?
11:04am Wednesday 12th September 2012 in National Entertainment News © Press Association 2014
Britney Spears has hinted that she would like to stay on for another series of US X Factor.
The pop princess has joined the judging panel for the second series of the show, alongside panellists Simon Cowell, LA Reid and Demi Lovato, and E! News reports that when she was asked whether she would like to keep her seat for the third series, she replied: "It's a possibility, definitely."
Actress and singer Demi, who joined the show alongside Britney when Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul were axed following the first season, also admitted she would like to return.
"This show has been so incredible. The best experience of my life. I can only hope for another season," she confessed.
And it seems Britney, 30, and Demi, 20, might be in with a chance, as show boss Simon revealed they have both impressed him with their judging talents.
He said: "Based on what you're going to see in the first episode, they are really, really good. And they do bring this kind of excitement and star power to the show."
The X Factor stars were speaking as they marked the premiere of season two of the show and were honoured with a handprint ceremony at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in LA.

► Pathogenic SYNGAP1 mutations promote early maturation of hippocampal spine synapses ► Mutations lead to neonatal hyperactivity of the hippocampal trisynaptic circuit ► Mutations have greatest impact during the first 3 weeks of development ► Reversal of mutations in adults does not improve behavior and cognition
Mutations that cause intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are commonly found in genes that encode for synaptic proteins. However, it remains unclear how mutations that disrupt synapse function impact intellectual ability. In the SYNGAP1 mouse model of ID/ASD, we found that dendritic spine synapses develop prematurely during the early postnatal period. Premature spine maturation dramatically enhanced excitability in the developing hippocampus, which corresponded with the emergence of behavioral abnormalities. Inducing SYNGAP1 mutations after critical developmental windows closed had minimal impact on spine synapse function, whereas repairing these pathogenic mutations in adulthood did not improve behavior and cognition. These data demonstrate that SynGAP protein acts as a critical developmental repressor of neural excitability that promotes the development of life-long cognitive abilities. We propose that the pace of dendritic spine synapse maturation in early life is a critical determinant of normal intellectual development.

Hardware compatibility questions
I've searched up of great info on this forum in the past, but this is my first time registering to ask a question. There are some issues that I couldn't locate answers to. I hope you can help.
What I'd like to do: Get audio from my Mac and iPhone to some powered monitors, with high quality. This would be both for normal listening, and for music recording and mixing.What I've got: iMac 24-inch Mid 2007, OSX 10.8 Mountain LionWhat I will add in the next year: either a MBP and a Thunderbolt Display, or a new iMac and an iPadWhat I was thinking of getting for this application: an AirPort Express, such as this So what's the question? There are a few.
I imagine there are other pertinent questions that I haven't thought of. So, what answers or general guidance can you offer? Thanks in advance. |

For editing and recording you need some kind of audio interface. Something like this: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Scarlett2i2/ This is not to say you can't also have airplay. |

Nov 26, 2012, 08:18 AM | #3 |
Thanks for the reply.
That's right, I had not been thinking about latency. Can you recommend anything that has also an optical input, to receive from the AXP? That would avoid the scenario I'm imagining where either I'm plugging and unplugging cables, or I need to put an analog mixer ahead of the monitors to combine the two analog audio sources. |

Thanks for the suggestion, r3k.
In looking for the hardware solution, I decided to get a true regular audio interface, and dispense with the AudioEngine idea. Also, I decided to have the AXP replace my existing wifi router completely. I did find one audio interface with the features I was looking for. Here. But in the end I got this, along with an inexpensive spdif/toslink-to-spdif/coax converter. I'm setting all this up now. |

Dec 23, 2012, 09:57 AM | #6 |
As a follow-up:
All this is working fine. The cheapie S/PDIF converter works OK. As ChrisA said, the latency with AirPlay is enormous, like a second or so, so, so it's fine for Pandora, but that's about it. |

Ruslan Tsarni says he grew concerned about Tamerlan Tsarnaev (tsahr-NEYE'-ehv) when he told him in a 2009 phone conversation that he had chosen "God's business" over work or school. Tsarni said he then contacted a family friend who told him Tsarnaev had been influenced by a recent convert to Islam.
Tsarni says their relationship ended after that call. The 26-year-old Tsarnaev was killed in a shootout with police Friday. His younger brother, 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-KHAR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv), was captured that evening.
Tsarni says he was relieved his younger nephew was captured alive so he could seek forgiveness from the bombing victims.

I am sorry it took so long. The regrestrars office had accidently put the wrong headstone number in the computer so I had to call them and make a second trip to locate the correct headstone. For future reference it is headstone 10-124 not the 10-24 that was listed.

An up-to-date overview of free software and its makers
Role Models
If you are familiar with Firefox, you will appreciate the integrated direct search feature. Again, Songbird emulates its role model from the Internet world. The search field, top right in the window, does not pass your search keys to an engine like Google or Yahoo; rather, it searches the internal media store, the Songbird website, the SkreemR MP3 search service, or the The Hype Machine, a music blog aggregator. If the Songbird window with its many features takes up too much space on your desktop, you can use Mini mode, which reduces the program to a single line containing just the controls and the title of the current track.
Friends of the veteran MP3 player, XMMS, or its Windows predecessor Winamp, will be familiar with this view mode, and it is no coincidence. After all, the Songbird team not only includes former Netscape and Firefox developers, but also some migrants from the Winamp camp.
Changing Feathers
Whether you like the Songbird interface design or not is a question of taste, and there's no arguing taste. Despite this, when it comes to an application that is used primarily for pleasure, the look is very important for many users. Fortunately, if you don't like the standard skin, you can customize Songbird.
Like other music players, Songbird supports themes or skins, although the developers have chosen a more exotic term for what is basically the same thing: feathers. Right now, the official site has just 18 feathers available for download. Whether or not the community provides more will depend on the extent to which it embraces the new program (Figure 3).

I must clarify that the plane was cancelled not because of the snow but because of a 'technical issue' with the plane that was due to fly down from Manchester to collect us.
After waiting two hours in the main departure lounge for a Thomas Cook representative to lead us out, we were helped by an airport operative who took us to the luggage claim to collect our cases and take us to the Thomas Cook desk in the arrivals hall. Once there, we were met by a very unhelpful chap called 'Mike' and when we informed him of what had happened he simply dismissed us by saying 'the other 300 passengers managed to hear the announcement so I don't get why you didn't'. Very helpful after waiting eight hours in an airport!!
It would have been helpful if there had been a P&O representative at the airport to coordinate and ensure that all passengers had left the airport to go to the hotel.
We arrived at the hotel around 9pm, but had an alarm call for 4am the next morning with the flight due to leave at 9.15am.
Well, we did board the plane at around 9.15...but had to wait another two hours before taking off, so we were on the plane for a total of 17 hours!! Bit of a killer!
We missed the day in Acapulco, which was a shame.
The cabin (outside with a balcony) was fine, and kept nice and tidy and clean by the attendant. The public area's on the ship were good, clean and well maintained.
The food was good throughout the two weeks, and at one point I felt a little sorry for one of the waiters in the plaza grill as one of the other English passengers was having a go at him for taking away the cooked tomatoes five minutes before breakfast was due to finish.
The Marco Pierre White restaurant was a good experience with fantastic food, simple but very good. The only gripe about Cafe De Jardin is that it is a little dated. It could do with being a bit more contemporary as the dEcor does not meet the expectation of a MPW restaurant.
We also booked the Horizon Grill, which is alfresco dining, for an evening meal. We were all looking forward to this but our table of nine ended in walking out of the restaurant due to the noise of the band directly below the dining area. It was impossible to hold any kind of conversation. With the deck being empty, it mystified us as to why the band were playing in the first place!! Three of us rebooked the Horizon Grill for another night and again it was a bit of disaster, this time is was due to service, with simple orders being mixed up and sent back. Shame really, as the setting is very nice.
The Panama canal was excellent, Nicaragua was also good and the Caribbean islands are always good. St Maarten in particular is the place to invest in Cigarettes and alcohol!
Overall, the cruise was very good and after a day or two on board we had forgotten about the debacle of getting there.

Bowers & Wilkins P3 headphones review
4.5 out of 5
Elegant, comfortable, carry case included, good and neutral sound
Sound spreads to those around you at mid-high volumes, neutral sound may not suit all genres or tastes, pricey, could do with some more top end "sparkle"
Bowers and Wilkins has a strong reputation when it comes to audio. The company's speaker systems are enviable (and expensive) and have impressed audiophiles for an age. Enter the B&W P3 over-ear headphones: as part of the P-range, at the top of which... read the full review.

NorCal Di Standings Logjam |
Clubs - Men's DI Clubs | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Olympic Club and SFGG won this week, securing bonus points by scoring four tries (or in O-Club's case, many, many more), while San Mateo pulled off a slight upset, beating the Sacramento Lions 20-17. The EPA Bulldogs remain in 1st after winning easily over crosstown rivals the Razorbacks. The Bulldogs are now 6-0 and have clinched 1st place in the Pacific Coast bracket of the Competitive Region 1 playoffs. Olympic Club moves into second on points difference over San Mateo. Both are at 21 points. SFGG stays close at 20 points after a bonus-point win over the Barbarians. The Lions, who had been 2nd almost all season, drop to 4th because they don't have the bonus points of the other teams. So it all comes down to next week. That puts the Lions still in an excellent position to claim the final playoff spot. (Provo has the right, apparently, to challenge for that final spot. No word has been heard on whether that will happen.)

Eric Sommer, Pop Americana Star, rear-ended by speeding, wreckless driver on Nashville's Rt. 40 while heading to Dallas, Austin and San Marcos for important show dates.
Nashville, Tennessee (PRWEB) February 21, 2014
Eric Sommer, Pop Americana Star and premier American guitar slinger, held over in Nashville for an extended stay.
For all the wrong reasons.
On Thursday afternoon, January 30, as Mr. Sommer was heading to a Friday night show in Dallas, Texas at The House of Blues, a reckless driver traveling at high speed, rear-ended his Chevy Blazer on Rt. 40, Music Highway, just west of Nashville.
The impact was so violent that Eric Sommer and his Chevy S-10 Blazer, 15,000 miles short of 500,000, went airborne, slammed sideways into an 18-wheeler semi, rolled three times and landed upside down on the roof, crushing the cab, and slid along the roadway for 100 yards, upside down...
Traffic was stopped on Rt. 40 for 20 miles, and it took hours to clear the glass and debris field from the roadway.
The Blazer was crushed and the windows shattered, so Mr. Sommer crawled out of the cab on his back from the drivers side window, which was crushed to around 8" high, with a collapsed lung, crushed, bruised ribs, blood, glass and shattered debris everywhere. The gear and guitars remained in the back of the Blazer, shattered and shaken by the violent impacts.
Mr. Sommer was rushed by Smith County EMS to University Medical Center in Lebanon, Tennessee. Dr. McFarland, the ER Surgeon on duty that evening, was able to stabilize Eric Sommer, work on the collapsed lungs, sew up the lacerations and torn skin and place Mr. Sommer in a private room to recover.
Eric Sommer was discharged Sunday morning, February 1st, and moved to The Walton Hotel in Carthage, Tennessee to recover from this terrible accident and make plans to move forward. Friends and fans can help by visiting Eric Sommer Recovery Fund or by purchasing this American Artists' work at iTunes or CDBaby.
Then take a moment and get familiar with one of the most intriguing American singers and writers currently on the National stage. Mr. Sommer has been playing and singing, writing and performing for years, traveling alone along America's highways and side roads, gas stations and bus stops, writing and singing about the vanishing open road. It's clear his songwriting and singing chops are all there in spades.
These songs are visual fabric to the American narrative of freedom and creative expression, making message and content work effortlessly with technical skill and musical inventiveness. But the kicker is Eric Sommer is one of the most innovative open-tuning, slide and pickin' guitar players in the country. It's a remarkable combination. There are very few players who have maintained this authentic American style of guitar and Eric Sommer is one of the very best.
With open tunings, slide guitar, lap-slap tone guitar and a remarkably aggressive fingering style approach, watching Eric Sommer will make you jump out of your seat and holler for joy. And the songs, the words and the lyrical quality belie a deeply sensitive approach to documenting cast-aside events and recording the human experience in any and every way possible.
For Music Samples, please visit Eric Sommer online for additional schedules or contact him at eric(at)ericsommer(dot)com or call 202-255-1995. Additionally, you can find Eric Sommer on Facebook(dot)com/ericsommermusic and Twitter @itsericsommer. Rainy Day Karma is also available on iTunes and CDBaby.

I Guess If He Really Thought He Might Get Canned, AJ Might Not Act Like AJ On Draft Day
Play, play the game tonight
Can you tell me if it's wrong or right
Is it worth the time, is it worth the price
Do you see yourself in the white spotlight
Then play the game tonight
Ah, Kansas, you are so wise. If you aren't familiar with the tune, you can hear it here. I haven't spoken with you since the schedule was released and now it's draft time. I saw the "story" (based on an Acee Tweet) that the Chargers might trade up to draft Barron. Then I read Kevin Acee'scolumn which suggested that anything could happen because AJ gets so much pleasure out of proving others wrong. This plays to our worst fears that he'll do whatever he wants and not what is best for the team. I remember writing the same things about the late John Butler. But when Wiley and Boston were jettisoned before the 2004 season, they both looked like geniuses. However, the Bolts have never taken advantage of the opportunities presented to them in January and here we are. The photo to your right was taken in the Chargers locker room, by the way. I found it interesting, especially with the costly fumbles of Tolbert, Mathews and Rivers last season. I think "Protect The Dream" should be a slogan for the entire team. It's not just the ball that is in these guys' hands. It's the hopes, heartbreaks and fears of The Legion Of The Lightning Bolt as a whole.

I am sure you've taken a good look at this already. You can click on the link to see a close up of the girls on the roller coaster ride that is a Charger season. I can only imagine what missed field goal or stupid penalty they'll be reacting to. I'm too harsh, you say? Come on, FAITHFUL READER. I couldn't say these things about the Bolts if I didn't know this team so well and if I hadn't suffered through all this alongside you. I would love to be wrong, however, That's why I plan to attend the 12/23 game in New Jersey. If LT really isn't back with the Jets, it should make showing up a little less thorny for me. I also am tentatively planning on going to the game in Cleveland. Why, you ask? It's just the type of random act I like to pull. Long-time members of The Justice League may remember that I attended the '92 and '04 games there already. Those were 11 and 12 wins seasons, respectively. Those game were also big wins in those seasons. Of course, our one-time and apparently present-day kicker fucked the second January up beyond repair. I noticed that Kevin Acee made mention of the ghosts of postseasons past (and lost) as well:
"The Jets. There is no opponent that summons the frustrations and teases of recent years like the Jets, who came across the country to beat the Chargers by (missed) field goals in the 2004 and '09 playoffs and last October in New Jersey overcame an 11-point halftime deficit to start the Chargers on what would grow to a six-game losing streak." Well, I sold my tickets to the first playoff game due to financial concerns about flying cross country and I sat last year's game out since it was the weekend of my daughter's 5th birthday. This year, the schedule makers gave the Bolts a bye on her big day. They also solved my dilemma about the opening Sunday since I was concerned about having to watch my son that day. I previously Tweeted that Sammy and Sarah were going to see The Fresh Beat Band that afternoon and I assumed that Aaron was about to get a crash course in how Daddy rolls during football season. But since the Bolts are playing at the latest possible day and time that week, I will be sitting in front of my television all by myself once again. By the way, having mentioned LaDainian Tomlinson earlier, I actually would have been OK with AJ bringing him back. My esteemed colleague, Whit Watson, wondered aloud what kind of idiot would be in favor of such a move a few posts back. I guess the answer is this idiot. Like everything else with this team, it's an emotional and symbolic decision for me. I care far less for LT then for what it would represent for AJ to actually show he can change. There is no doubt that LT was not OK with being phased out of the offense, even though he beamed to Jim Trotter to the contrary after we beat the Eagles at home in '09. Maybe it was the emotion of finding out he was finally going to be a dad, I don't know.
However, right now the thing I believe really stands most in the way of the San Diego Chargers are the San Diego Chargers. Beyond Norv and AJ, I blame Dean Spanos. I just finished reading Mark Ribowsky's excellent biography of Howard Cosell. In it, he describes the late Gene Klein accosting Cosell in public by calling him "Al Davis' pimp." Cosell was a big supporter of The Dark One's lawsuit against the NFL. Can yo imagine Dean Spanos having that kind of passion about the Chargers? I have been looking for evidence that ownership is actually committed to winning a Super Bowl for years and am yet to find it. My biggest complaint is that our coach and GM haven't been held accountable for mistakes. If they aren't expected to produce results, then how can you expect the team to? Oh, Dean, Norv and AJ talk about "Super Bowl or bust," but nothing they've done backs that up. I am fine with Vincent Jackson departing and Meachem and Royal taking his place. But part of me wanted to see AJ sign Jackson to a long-term deal just to show that he was willing to do something we all thought he was determined not to. Weren't we promised a kindler, gentler AJ when Dean neglected to fire him? Of course, I wrote at the time that it's not AJ's asshole tendencies that matter but where it's gotten us.
That's why I am even more concerned about this draft than usual. AJ talks about needing a defense to win a championship, but he's signed one defender this offseason. It will come in the draft, some speculate. It fucking better. I know that Gaither isn't perfect and that is valid concern that he'll revert back to his lazy ways. But I do have to agree with Acee's point in the U-T's draft roundtable video that the Chargers didn't give him a new contract so they could draft a guard in the first round. So will I be happy with a defensive pick? As long as it's someone I've heard of. Seriously, I can't stomach another pick that has the "experts" saying that "this guy was predicted by everyone to go later." Maybe AJ should stop trying to prove he's smarter than everybody by looking for more guys in the scrap heap. Prove your worth by doing your fucking job. It's hard enough to make the tough decisions without the inflated ego getting in the way. Being stubborn is no longer working. Before I forget, I was sent a link to this site regarding facial hair. I have no idea what it has to do with the Chargers, but I thought I'd pass it along.
That's all for now. I'm sure I'll be on Twitter after the Bolts use their first pick. Forget protecting the dream, how about not destroying the dream for once. Maybe this year's JIC slogan will be
Talk to you soon,

Audio slideshow: Bates production sharpened the edge on Elton play
Ben Elton's 1996 play Popcorn is a bleak comedy about the symbiotic relationship between violence and the mass media. It's the story of an American film director, known for the sensationalistic violence in his work, who is taken hostage by two serial killers on the very evening he wins an Oscar. The so-called Mall Murderers, Wayne and Scout, claim that director Bruce Delamitri inspired their brutal acts and should therefore be held responsible for them.
Blending live action and dramatic video, Dana Professor of Theater Martin Andrucki (shown below) directed the Bates theater department's March 2006 production of Elton's play. In this five-minute audio slideshow, Andrucki discusses the play, the Bates production and his cast.

Only three hours by car from Bangkok this tranquil fishing village, with its five mile long beach and fantastic local seafood, provides an ideal getaway from the sticky metropolis. One of Thailand's oldest resorts, Hua Hin was discovered in the early 1920s by King Rama VII and soon became a favourite of the Royal family and Thailand's aristocracy. Many of Bangkok's elite built beachfront summer homes along this curving sandy bay, contributing to the resort's prestige.
While Hua Hin remains a Royal and high society favourite, it has developed in recent years by deftly combining the attractions of an international destination with its distinctive charm. The hectic development based largely on tourist dollars has been avoided, and the town still has a flourishing fishing port. Easy access from Bangkok by train has ensured Hua Hin's growth with Thais as well as foreign tourists. It's a place to relax, take a stroll, eat great seafood and chill out..
