In honor of BC's own Pete Frates
I was thinking about it the other day: When did I first become a BC fan? The year I came up with was 2007, and the first game I remember was the "Comeback Kids Game" as I'll call it when the Eagles...
The Ultimate Boston College Football Game Series: Pool D
However, whether it was sustainable or not, there is no doubt that the program continues to take steps in the wrong direction under Spaziani. The team has gone from eight wins in his first year to seven wins in 2010 to just a 4-8 mark last season, and maybe worst of all, have lost their identity. For a team that has produced elite quarterbacks like Matt Ryan and the Hasselbeck brothers over the years, Boston College finished 100th in passing offense last year, and 112th nationally in scoring at just 18.2 points per game. Understand that it's one thing to be bad. It's quite another to be boring. And right now, Boston College is both.It's Hot Seat Week here at Crystal Ball Run (Crystal Ball Run)

Summary — Iowa came up empty after a solid drive to start the quarter. Vandenberg got the Hawkeyes to the seven-yard line with a 55-yard pass to Johnson-Koulianos. Iowa could not get into the end zone. Vandenberg's third-down pass hit Stross in the hands, but the receiver could not hang on. Murray's 22-yard field goal attempt sailed wide right. Vandenberg threw his first touchdown pass with 3:31 to go in the quarter. After a 33-yard completion to McNutt, the quarterback hit McNutt again for a nine-yard touchdown to tie the score.
Key play — Vandenberg's 33-yard completion to McNutt put Iowa at the 13. They scored three plays later.
Score — Iowa 10, Ohio State 10.

Re: Cubfest Northeast 2010
Do you guys ever start a "Haves/Wants" list thread for these events ?
Each individual who was looking for something or has something would make one single post in this thread and edit it accordingly. Ex: my post would read something like this-
Ex: Cubfest Northeast 2010 Haves/Wants
-Woods 59 mower with all hookups and belts new extra blades
-used IH cub Carburator (needs rebuilt)
-disc harrow (any brand usable behind a cub)
-pitman arm for cub 22 mower
I didn't know if you guys ever did something like this or if everyone just brought whatever like a giant swap meet and sold and traded throughout the event ?
22 sickle bar mower x2
23A tandem disc harrow
144 cultivator (#53 & #97 spring tooth)
154 leveling and grader blade

Re: Cubfest Northeast 2010
These events are not "giant" but people do bring stuff to swap and a lot of pre-arrangements are made. If you post a for sale and a wanted ad and mention that you can bring the items to the Cubfest, someone in Ohio, for example, may be interested as someone will be returning home with a trailer and they may have room for one more item. Otherwise known as "Cub Express". This may help broaden your potential buyers well beyond the 20-50 attendees at regional events.

DANVERS, Mass. (AP) - High school students have returned to class in Danvers, Mass., two days after a 14-year-old student was charged with murder in the death of a popular math teacher.
The school reopened Friday after being closed for two days, although grief counselors were made available Thursday.
Philip Chism is charged with killing 24-year-old Colleen Ritzer. Investigators have not disclosed a possible motive for the slaying that has stunned the community 20 miles north of Boston.
Ritzer's alma mater, Assumption College in Worcester, has scheduled a "quiet and prayerful reflection" at the school's chapel on Friday. Ritzer graduated from the Catholic college in 2011 with a degree in mathematics.
She is described by a school official as "a talented student" and a "cheerful presence in and out of class."

A two-car accident sent one car and a fire hydrant crashing into the Eddy Place building in downtown Saginaw Wednesday morning.
Two people in one car were taken to an area hospital, where they were being treated for minor injuries.
The accident happened around 11 a.m. Wednesday on Washington Avenue, just west of the intersection of Genesee Avenue.
One of the cars hit a fire hydrant, and the impact was so large that the hydrant went flying through a bay window in the front of the building.
The accident was cleaned up in just under an hour, and no roads were closed as a result of the crash.

DEFIANCE, OH (Toledo News Now) - Republican nominee for president and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney visited Defiance Thursday.
It took over two and a half hours for all of the people to get through security, through the gate and into the Defiance High School stadium. The event "Musicians for Mitt" was hosted by John Rich of country music group Big and Rich.
Romney was supported by some big names such as Meatloaf, John Rich and Big Kenny (Big and Rich) and Randy Owen from Alabama.
Romney to rally at Defiance football stadium
Doors will open around 4:30 p.m. Thursday, with Romney scheduled to begin speaking at 7:35.
"I'm looking forward [to it]. I've been promised that I'll get to shake hands with the governor. I'm looking forward to it. He's a celebrity. He could be our next president and honestly, it's a real opportunity for a small town mayor," said Armstrong.
The Romney campaign rented out the Defiance High School football stadium.
"I think what candidates are seeing is that you better grab a hold of these small communities that really are the fabric of America, and we are the people that are the decision makers and we really are the pulse of what is across America, and I think it shows them that we're good people and we make good decisions," said principal Robert Morton.
Morton said this is a great opportunity for students to see firsthand how the election process works.
"Educationally, they get to see something that, you know, the number one freedom that we have, is the ability to vote and select our leader, and the leader of the free world. And I think the opportunity for them to see a candidate spend time in their community, and I think it shows them the importance of their small community and particularly, what it means to the election of a president," explained Morton.
Country music singers John Rich, of Big and Rich, and Randy Owen will be there.
A pre-rally event took place there Wednesday, in which 100 people received VIP tickets for a chance to meet Romney up close and personal.
Organizers expect big turnout
Campaign organizers expect the rally to be huge, issuing 14,000 tickets for the event. Those seeking tickets should go to the GOP headquarters at 106 Clinton Street in Defiance. Interested individuals will need to provide an ID and e-mail address, then print off their tickets once received via e-mail.
Tickets can also be obtained on Mitt Romney's website.
While crews build the stage where Romney will be speaking, local law enforcement is preparing for a large crowd, including those who might be showing up to protest.
Romney campaigns all over Buckeye State
Defiance is not the only stop for Romney Thursday. Earlier at a parts manufacturing facility in Cincinnati, he explained to a crowd the fundamental difference between his path and the president's.
"Our campaign is about big things because we happen to believe that America faces big challenges. We recognize that this is a year with a big choice and Americans want to see big changes, and I am going to bring it to this country," said Romney.
The head of the Defiance County Republican Party said there are many other factors for voters to consider, such as jobs, which he believes Romney cares about most.
Romney said President Obama has not been able to define what he is going to do to make America strong going forward.
Stay with Toledo News Now for details leading up to Romney's visit and complete coverage of the event Thursday.

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) – A suspect is in custody Saturday morning, after a dangerous chase that started in National City.
The driver led police on a high-speed, six mile pursuit on side streets Friday night, reaching speeds of 70 miles an hour. Then, the chase came to a stop and the suspect tried to make a run for it at a Bay Terraces apartment complex. However, the apartment complex was at a dead end on Alcona Street and the suspect was unable to hide from a police chopper or K-9 units.
News 8's Richard Allyn files this video report from National City with details on how officers moved in to make the arrest.

The Louisville Cardinals see the 2011 Belk Bowl against the N.C. State Wolfpack as a chance for a team starting 10 freshman to get momentum for the 2012 NCAA season. Second year head coach Charlie Strong took the difficult road to make a bowl game, having to win five of the Cardinals final six games. Freshman quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was able to settle in after the team moved to a more pistol style of offense, setting the school record for passing yards by a freshman with 1,855 yards in the air.
The Wolfpack on the other hand are making their third bowl appearance of the last five seasons. Last year, N.C. State surprised the West Virginia Mountaineers 23-7 in the Champs Sports Bowl.
"Anytime you get to a situation we were in you're either going to cash your chips in or you're going to make a move," head coach Tom O'Brien said. "We made a move." Quarterback Mike Glennon stepped up for Russell Wilson, who transferred to Wisconsin. Glennon threw at least three touchdowns in three games this season, but will be taking on a Louisville defense that doesn't even give up 20 points per game.
Game date, time: 8:00 p.m. ET, Tuesday, December 27th
Location: Bank of America, Charlotte, NC
TV channel: ESPN/ESPN3
Odds: NC State favored by 1.5

A sculptor, painter, poet, and art writer who has been teaching at Merrimack College in North Andover, Massachusetts, since 1964, Raymond is showing 21 recent ink on paper drawings at Brunswick's ICON Contemporary Art. It is yet another superb showing of excellent and thoughtful abstract art at that venue.

His face was beautiful when he would
laugh with me.
The brightness of his eyes,
the curious sound of his voice,
the sparkle of the metal which covered his teeth
when he'd smile at me.
Oh! How he loved to live ...
and then he left.
His face is disturbing
when he looks at me, now.
The deep purple of the circles under his eyes,
the serious sound of his all-knowing voice,
the way his unsmiling lips hide perfect teeth
when he looks disapprovingly at me.
Oh! How I miss him ...
even when he is here.

An Elegy For Motor City and Urban America
The current crop of documentaries about the U.S. economic crisis approach the subject from varying points of view, including analysis by on camera witnesses who explain use graphs and pie charts to explain how America's finances got so bad. Other economic crisis films reveal the impact of the actions of bad moguls like Bernie Madoff, Mark Drier and the Exxon boys. And, there are those that expose the egregious worldwide effects of America's industrial expansion to foreign lands where U.S. companies create environmental disasters and leave exploited people diseased and without alternative means of self-support.
In Detropia, filmmakers Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady focus on the economic woes of the once prosperous city of Detroit, heartland America's industrial capital and headquarters for the nation's auto makers, but now in deep financial decline and civic crisis.
The Cast of Characters
With cameras rolling, the filmmakers follow a diverse selection of Detroit citizens who serve almost as tour guides through the city, pointing out various locales, events and situations that reveal, one by one, different aspects of the blighted city's plight.
There is the union leader who drives past the huge and silent structures of abandoned auto manufacturing plants, the corporate owners of which have relocated the production and employment opportunities to Mexico or other foreign lands where labor is cheap, and who conducts union meetings with disgruntled laborers who must accept wage cuts and decreased benefits or lose their jobs altogether.
There is a young waitress who writes a popular independent blog about Detroit lifestyle, often comparing the city's past and present attributes. She examines abandoned apartments and offices, wondering what's become of the citizens who once populated them.
There are two performance artists who collaborate to stage street actions to raise public awareness about civic issues.
And, there's a group of jobless young men who've banned together in the illegal enterprise of salvaging copper pipes from abandoned buildings and selling the loot for their survival money.
Job SecurityThen, we meet up with a laborer who has one of the busiest, most productive and seemingly most secure employment situations in town. He's the contract player hired by the city to tear down abandoned homes and haul Detroit's detritus off to some landfill somewhere. The city is downsizing. Authorities are wiping out neighborhoods, shutting down schools and limiting other services because the city is broke and can't afford to cover even the essentials. Citizens are frustrated, angry and determined not to let their beloved city die. But despite a lot of positive rhetoric, nobody has any viable solutions for the problems. And, the future looks grim.
Set For Destruction
The city's shut down/tear down schedule is simply staggering. As the camera focuses on the wrecking crane's attack on a lovely and seemingly still quite livable house -- the owners of which perhaps had to leave it because of a foreclosure -- a title card appears on the screen, indicating that there are thousands of such homes scheduled for destruction. Thousands. It's hard to believe that a better solution can't be found for the viable properties, especially when so many people in the world are homeless.
Detropia Beyond Detroit
With sequences like those covering the wrecking ball -- and its ironic implications -- the filmmakers connect Detropia to what's happening in cities large, small and mid-sized across the U.S., and the film becomes a powerful thought provoking and rather worrisome projected profile of contemporary American urban life. This is done without voice over narration that tells you what to think.
Masterful Filmmaking
Ewing (who grew up in Detroit and knows the city intimately) and Grady masterfully create an extremely strong and richly textured verite city profile that effectively captures Detroit's current mood and status, and the sad desperation and understandable anger of its residents.
Craig Atkinson and Tony Hardmon's camera work is stunningly beautiful and always appropriate, visually capturing the city's gloomy outlook. Through its observational style, the film presents a unique and compelling perspective on America's current economic crisis.
This is a must see documentary.

By Jill Harmacinski
---- — LAWRENCE — Police pulled five illegal guns and ammunition off the street sand made seven firearms and drug arrests in two separate investigations spanning morning to night Tuesday.
The weapons seized ranged from a Ruger to a sawed-off shotgun.
"These are five guns that will never be used to in a crime. Five guns that will never injure anyone," Police Chief John Romero said.
The guns were seized by detectives after a search warrant was executed at 121 Emmett St. at 7 a.m. and later, in a separate investigation and arrest of wanted Abbott Street fugitive, Nelson Arroyo, 45, who was hiding out in nearby Haverhill, police said.
Arroyo was charged with illegal possession of a black Ruger handgun, a Beretta handgun shotgun and a sawed off shotgun he had hidden at a friend's home in North Andover. Arroyo was not licensed to carry any of the guns. He is also facing illegal narcotics possession and assault charges.
Tuesday morning, during the Emmett Street raid, detectives confiscated a .380 caliber Smith & Wesson firearm with two magazines containing live ammunition as well as a .32 caliber Colt firearm with one magazine containing 8 live rounds, according to a report by Detective Carmen Purpora.
Investigators also seized heroin, crack cocaine, powder cocaine, scales, drug packaging materials, $4,120 cash, passports and more as they executed the search warrant, according to police reports.
The following people were arrested on the following charges as a result of the search warrant Tuesday morning:
Jose Ramon Martinez, 38, of 123 Emmett St., #1, Lawrence; four counts of illegal possession of heroin and cocaine, illegal possession of a firearm and illegal storage of a firearm.
Eleodoro Victorino, 53, of 123 Emmett St., #1, Lawrence; four counts of illegal possession of heroin and cocaine and two counts of illegal possession of a firearm.
Denis Rivera, 39, of 56 Phillips St., #2, Lawrence; illegal possession of heroin and cocaine, illegal possession of narcotics near a school and three outstanding warrants.
David Alfonso, 25, of 11 Lafayette St., Lawrence; illegal possession of heroin and cocaine, providing a false name to police after arrest and an outstanding warrant.
Odalis Garcia, 34, of 56 Phillips St., Lawrence; illegal possession of heroin and cocaine and an outstanding warrant.
On Monday, police issued a wanted poster for Arroyo, after he allegedly pointed a gun at a woman and threatened to kill her. An alleged drug dealer, Arroyo also used the aliases of Anthony Tartak and Jose Tartak. He threatened "to shoot police officers if they attempted to apprehend him," according to a police report.
On Tuesday evening, local and state police detectives learned Arroyo was staying with a friend at 28 Glines St. in Haverhill. Just after 7 p.m., they followed him out of Haverhill, tailing him and his driver to Merrimack Street in Lawrence.
At the time of his arrest, Arroyo had the black Ruger in the waistband of his pants, according to a report by Detective Dean Murphy. He was also in possession of heroin, cocaine and bullets, police said.
Police also found a silver Beretta belonging to Arroyo during a search of 28 Glines St. in Haverhill. And Arroyo's sawed off shotgun was seized from at 66 Russell St. in North Andover, the home of Arroyo's friend Jonathan Bunnell, 24.
Bunnell was charged with illegal possession of Methadone and Citalopram, a prescription drug, and knowingly being present where heroin was kept.
According to his booking slip, Arroyo was charged with three counts of illegal possession of cocaine, trafficking heroin, illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition, carrying a firearm without a license and three outstanding warrants.

For the Kokomo Tribune
— Look to the Bible for answers
Science offers the possibility that the universe originated from a big bang. The Bible says that God created all things in six days.
That could have been a big bang. Science scours the heavens for extraterrestrial life, and some scientists indicate that the earth has been visited by extraterrestrials. The Bible says that angels have visited and delivered God's messages to selected individuals. Science tells us that lack of adequate rest is bad for our health, which we know to be true from experience. The Bible directs us to take a complete rest on the seventh day. Science amazes us with the discovery of quantum particles that travel through space in the form of waves that spread out and are in many places at the same time. The Bible reveals God who is everywhere present. Science warns us that climate change will bring upon us severe, dire effects. The Bible predicts that in the "end times" there will be many significant cataclysmic events throughout the earth. Science proposes that there may be parallel or multiple universes. The Bible tells us that there is a new heaven and a new earth.
Who knows? Perhaps one of these days, science will catch up to the Bible.
Charles A. Layne,
Bunker Hill
What choice do we have in November?
I read with interest and some confusion the letter submitted by Mr. Amatuzzo in the Friday, Sept. 7, issue of the Kokomo Tribune. It was regarding Mitt Romney being a "mass murderer" because of the laws passed by the Legislature when Mr. Romney was governor of Massachusetts.
Well, gee, we don't have much of a choice then on Nov. 6, do we? A governor who is a mass murderer and President Obama who voted for abortion at all stages of a woman's pregnancy when he was a member of the Illinois Senate. He also believes that homosexual marriage is all right. Those are in the Democrat platform, by the way. I suggest that Mr. Amatuzzo view the movie "2016 Obama's America."
It was very enlightening. It's simply the story of Mr. Obama's life.
Barbara Hughes,

We contacted the cruise line and their supposed guarantee arm, and were told that the scanned number was for a 1ct set, and yes we did only get a 0.5ct set, but the best they would do was replace our paperwork. If we had wanted them to be exchanged, it had to be done aboard ship before we got off!

The search continues for whoever murdered two Texas prosecutors.
Dougherty District Attorney Greg Edwards says, despite the inherent danger of the job, most prosecutors don't fear for their lives.
Kaufman County, Texas district attorney Mike McLelland and his wife were found dead in their home Saturday night. There is speculation a white supremacist group out for retribution is behind the murder.
Edwards says he does his job in a professional manner, and those being prosecuted shouldn't take it personally. "I think that is an important aspect of it and at that realization there can be a determination that there will be nothing gained by bringing any harm to me as an individual or my staff," Edwards said.
Just two months ago, the assistant district attorney for Kaufman County was also shot dead.

BULLET POINTS: Comics News Roundup for December 5, 2011A comics news article
Bullet Points is Comics Bulletin's weekday roundup of some of the most notable news, criticism, tweets and other craziness of the comics industry.
Think of it as the entire comics internet shrunk down into one convenient article, for people with not enough time to check every single comics website on the Internet.
Image Comics have released this (dope) teaser for Rebel Blood, a March 2012 Shadowline comic that promises "A zombie story like no other." Hey, a new zombie comic that doesn't make me preemptively groan! Good on ya.
Legion Lost: Nicieza Out, DeFalco In
It wouldn't be a day of the week without DC New 52 creative team changes, would it?
This time writer Fabian Nicieza has quit Legion Lost. Replacing him is another '90s Marvel writer and former Editor-in-Chief, Tom DeFalco, best known these days for his run on Spider-Girl and for writing various Archie comics. DeFalco will take over with Legion Lost #7.
Quoth editor Brian Cunningham on DC's blog:
His schedule just couldn't keep up with a monthly series right now. It's a bummer because Fabian and I had discussed some really cool ideas for the series, but I understood his reasons, and we parted on a positive note with hopes that someday we can reteam on something else down the road.
It's hard not to read that post as total spin, by the way, what with that ridiculous "A Passing of the Torch" subtitle. Then, if you read Nicieza's interview about his departure at Newsarama, you can kinda read between the lines and get some indication of the behind-the-scenes situation at DC:
I quickly realized that I couldn't keep up with the extra amount of work required to do for a book in the New 52 line, especially a team book, on the kind of schedule that I think is right.
I believe the work should be done when it's supposed to be done, and an artist should have an entire script waiting for him while he's still drawing the previous script. And we were just getting tighter and tighter, to the point where I wasn't going to be able to make that happen the way I wanted to.
Emphasis mine. Hm!
Marvel to Reveal Just What Exactly is "Coming"
Surely you've seen this teaser:
Well, Marvel plans on revealing just what all the fuss is about on Wednesday, December 7, 2011 at 3pm on Livestream.
So, um, look forward to that.
Marvel to Give Out $5 Coupons with Digital Comics
Rich Johnston has gotten word that Marvel Comics is going to launch a promotion where, if readers buy a digital comic through Marvel's app, they'll receive a $5 coupon for their local comic shop. Retailers would then be able to redeem the code for $5 credit from Marvel.
Neat way to get digital users to check out their local shop and stop the retailers from freaking the fuck out. Comic shops better clean up lest they scare off potential new customers.
Previews Galore!

Local Girl Scout Creates After School Art Program to Earn Girl Scouts Highest Honor, the Gold Award
Due to her love for the arts and a passion for education, Ariel G. established an art program for the students of Jennie Reid Elementary School, in order to complete all the requirements to earn the highest award a Girl Scout can achieve, the Gold Award.
"I wanted to combine my love of art and fill a need for art education in this elementary school," said Ariel.
It is a significant honor to earn the Gold Award. Girl Scouts who earn this award have demonstrated leadership skills, career planning, community involvement, and personal development. It takes two to three years of intensive work to complete all the requirements for the award. Less than five percent of girls who join Girl Scouts earn this recognition. A major component of earning the Gold Award is planning and completing a Gold Award Project that is a service to the community.
Ariel, a senior at Deer Park High School, worked with the La Porte elementary school twice a week for two hours, during the spring semester. She taught art history and technique to the students and provided opportunities for the participants to express themselves creatively. "I learned that it only takes one person with a vision to inspire many," said Ariel. "The greatest success in life comes from helping others."
Ariel is enjoying her last year in high school and plans on studying art in college.

SOUND OFF One way politicians in Illinois have put a lock on power is by drawing legislative district maps to ensure that members of their party won't face election opposition. Michael Madigan has been a major benefactor of political map-drawing. We believe this "incumbent protection program" needs to end. We needs maps drawn for voters, not politicians. Click here and find out how you can help in this effort.
PENSION MATH There was rejoicing in some circles a month ago when the Illinois General Assembly passed a pension reform bill after years of trying. But will the savings from this new law add up? We should know soon. More here.

Following news that Alistair Overeem is pulling out of his scheduled UFC 160 Heavyweight bout with Junior dos Santos, JDS' coach Luiz Dorea has some very interesting comments for Sherdog regarding Overeem:
"We're not here to doubt, but it's really strange. Cigano's career does not depend on Overeem, but it's the second time that the fight has been canceled," Dorea said. "What cannot happen is for Cigano to be penalized for it. He never chooses opponents, always accepts any fight and Hunt would be a good name. Injured or not, Overeem won't cause any setbacks for Cigano, who already had to start a camp and doesn't want to go any longer without fighting. It seems that Overeem doesn't want this fight.
"About that I do not know, but there's something weird there. It is reported that there was an injury, which we have to believe. Overeem is a great athlete, but he has his problems," Dorea said. "What will happen is that everyone who has a scheduled fight against Overeem will be [unsure if it will take place]. This is the second time that Cigano has prepared for this fight, and this requires dedication and money. This postponement will not obstruct Cigano's plans to seek the title shot soon after this fight.
"What else can happen in July, August? Will there be another story, another problem with the lab, or an injury?" Dorea continued. "There are great names in the division without a fight scheduled, .... but Overeem is also a great duel. Except that Overeem teases Cigano, and every time we get close to the fight, we do not know what happens. It's a difficult situation. But I'm quiet, and the UFC is watching."
Dos Santos will instead face Mark Hunt at UFC 160 on May 25 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

As we speculated, there was no way the Grizzlies were holding on to all of their backcourt players, after drafting Xavier Henry, Dominique Jones and Greivis Vazquez (to go with holdovers O.J. Mayo and Mike Conley). The Grizzlies have reportedly sold the righs to Jones to the Mavs, per ESPN's Marc Stein. Draft Express' Jonathan Givony further reports that the Mavs paid the Hawks $3 million for Jones' rights.
With last year's rookie Rodrigue Beaubois, an explosive point guard, and Jones, a muscular combo guard, the Mavs have the foundations of a stellar backcourt down the line.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Sex and streetwear aren't the most obvious bedfellows, but editor, stylist, and all-around provocateur Andrew Richardson has united them in his new store, Richardson. "I don't know if there is a logical connection between sex and streetwear, but I always thought that streetwear was sexy and cool," he mused between puffs on a cigarette. "There's always an attitude, and I think that's sexy—sexy confidence." That may be so, but his shop, which opens this Friday at 325 Broome Street in New York, sells swag that's arguably more perverse than confidence-boosting hoodies.
Best known for his cerebral, self-titled sex magazine, also called Richardson, Andrew is well versed in the streetwear subculture—he's even done a bevy of projects with cult label (or, as some would argue, lifestyle) Supreme. In his store, Andrew presents his liberated take on sex and bondage via clever T-shirts, bomber jackets, swim trunks, caps, and towels—many of which were created in collaboration with such artists as Christopher Wool, Bjarne Melgaard, and Aaron Bondaroff. Some highlights include a melting snowman shirt by Nate Lowman; a tee printed with a car that reads "Blow Jobs"; totes scribed with the store's ethos, "Work hard, play nice, communicate"; and a sweatsuit by artist Mark Gonzales. Embellished with images of lady parts and a cowboy flaunting his impressive member, the latter is guaranteed to inspire stares.
The shop goes beyond threads, though. For instance, good pal Olympia Le-Tan designed a signature patch for Richardson's club car jacket—more intriguing, though, is her capsule of erotic minaudières (think bags embroidered with busty femmes and titles like Fanny Hill, Cutter Girl, Carnal Cargo, or Sweet and 20.) Above the clutches' case hang drawings by Japanese artist Hauro Namaikawa that depict couples in compromising, albeit comical, positions. And, across the room, shelves are lined with an A-to-Z collection of erotic tomes, which was curated by Idea Books, London. Richardson is, of course, on sale, too. "There are going to be guys who are my age who are going to come in and spend $1,800 on an original drawing, and I think we'll have 25-year-old skaters who want to wear fucked-up T-shirts to scare their parents," said Andrew of his clientele. "There'll be a range."
When the editor—whose résumé, it should be noted, includes working on Madonna's Sex book, as well as shoots with heavyweights like Terry Richardson, Steven Meisel, and Ellen von Unwerth—was asked about the thinking behind his sex-themed products, he told us, "I was always into that idea of idolizing women through sexual provocation…and I'm trying to find that fine line between palatability and provocation. If you're too provocative, you end the debate." Ultimately, his patrons will be the ones to decide whether he's found that balance; however, no matter how explicit or ridiculous Richardson's offerings may be, everything is done with a wink, a smile, and a streetwise attitude. And somehow, that makes it seem all the sexier.

Air filtration units capture airborne particles such as dust, pollen, bacteria, dander, spores, etc.. Some units are non-electric media and some have combined media and electric functionality, which perform even better. Performance is measured in terms of efficiency at trapping micron-sized particles. (A human hair is 100 microns in diameter.) Removing a higher percentage of contaminants from the air may reduce the incidence of associated illnesses and allergy symptoms.
Dry winter air in the home can cause dry skin, nose and throat discomfort, and static electricity. It also can cause wood floors and trim in your home to shrink, walls to crack and wood instruments to warp. When a furnace runs in the winter it consistently dries the air. Replenish moisture levels in your home by installing a whole-house humidifier.
An ultraviolet purifier mounts on a home duct system and emits short-wave ultraviolet light into the ducts. This germicidal light kills a high percentage of micro-organisms in the air passing by it.
Benefits of dehumidifying your home include the following:

This Falls Hotel Tax Reform Measure
Does it make sense in this economy to raise taxes? Are our taxes too low in San Francisco, are they not spread around enough or directed at the right industry?
Raising taxes on our hotel industry by 2%, like we will be asked in some of our ballot measures, sounds like a good idea, until you learn that our taxes would be the highest in the nation. The money raised from Prop J is meant to fund more health and human services? This tax is only temporary, but I can tell you, as will any economist that studies San Francisco's economy, too much of our economy is based on tourism and if we jeopardize this funding stream there will be less tax available for these and other kinds of services anyway - if occupancy goes down, hotel tax revenue goes down.
We should be encouraging job growth, not discouraging it. Our leaders need to be focusing monies on job and employment opportunities. If this tax money (expected at 34 million a year) was meant to give companies hiring credits or salary help for every employee hired, I would be for it, but its only meant to support our welfare system, that is already extremely well funded.

Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD), also known as "blue tongue" disease, has impacted deer all across central Nebraska this hunting season.
Overall, Nebraska experienced a 20 percent statewide decrease in deer.
Southern parts of the state weren't affected much, but hunters in the north central and north east part of Nebraska had a rough season.
In 2010 and 2011, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission said 77,000 white tail deer roamed around the state.
Due to this year's EHD virus, only 53,000 dear are estimated to be in the state.
Nebraska game and Parks Project Manager Kit Hams says that's not a bad thing. "It took us back to where we were six years ago," he said. "To be honest, that's much closer to where we need this herd to be in the state."
EHD is a sickness caused by a bite from an insect called a midge.
Once a deer is bitten, it has about 24 to 48 hours to live.

Knife terror for Accrington Thomson staff
9:12am Wednesday 19th February 2014 in News
A KNIFEMAN threatened staff in a town centre travel agent before making off with stolen foreign currency.
Employees at Thomson Travel Agents in Blackburn Road, Accrington were threatened with a kitchen knife as the robber demanded money.
Detectives are now hunting a man in his 30s who entered the shop wearing dark clothing.
He forced staff to open the safe and escaped with an undisclosed sum of cash, in various currencies before leaving on foot through the main entrance at around 10am yesterday.
There were no customers in the store during the armed robbery. After the incident employees closed the shop to speak with police officers, directing customers to a main customer service number.
Traders and shoppers spoke of their shock following the incident, across the road from Accrington Market Hall.
One said: "I am quite concerned this has happened yards away from where I trade. I'm concerned about the staff too. They're nice people in the travel agents and shouldn't have had to go through this. I hope they catch him."
Shopper Natalie Owen, from Accrington said: "I think this is just awful. People should be able to go to work or go shopping without dealing with this happening."
Market hall cafe owner Peter Britcliffe said: "This is just terrible news and shocking it has happened on the doorstep. I hope the staff are OK and that police catch the person responsible. It is really quite horrible."
Detective Sergeant Ian Procter said: "Fortunately nobody was hurt during this robbery but this is a serious offence and I would reassure people that an investigation is underway. I'd also appeal to anybody that witnessed this incident or saw anybody acting suspiciously in the area around the time of the robbery to contact police."
The offender is described as being white, aged in his 30s and with a heavy build. He was wearing a dark jacket and dark hat. Anyone with information is asked to call independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or Lancashire police on 101.

Am somewhat surprised that they don't have CCTV in the store itself, both for the protection of the staff and the product that they deal in. Most places, where large amounts of cash are handled, have a security system of some sort, including dye packs, nowadays. They appear to have been a little lax here.

ARCADIA, Calif. (Jan. 8, 2011) – Aggie Engineer proved Saturday that he did not need to be on or near the lead to be a stakes winner as the 6-year-old rallied from off the pace to dominate Santa Anita's 74th running of the Grade II, $150,000 San Pasqual Stakes at 1 1/16 miles.
With Joe Talamo in the irons, Aggie Engineer was victorious by 3 ¼ lengths over Spurrier in a sprightly 1:40.94. It was the third straight victory for Ward and Roberta Williford's 6-year-old homebred gelding and his first over a natural dirt surface.
With two other dedicated speedsters in the lineup, Aggie Engineer was asked to deal with early pressure, something he did not need to do when registering his first stakes win in his previous start, Hollywood Park's Grade III Native Diver Handicap on Dec. 4. He coasted through a 50 2/5 half-mile and went six furlongs in 1:15 2/5 while posting that triumph at 1 1/8 miles over a synthetic surface in 1:51.
If Aggie Engineer needed another set-up Saturday, the betting public didn't think so. They made him the 17-10 favorite despite the presence of fellow speed types, Ryehill Dreamer and Red Door Drive, not to mention 2-1 second choice Dakota Phone, the 2010 Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile champion who is a dedicated deep closer.
Talamo let Red Door Drive and Ryehill Dreamer take care of the pace chores on Saturday while sitting comfortably in third. He rallied Aggie Engineer on the outside of those two rounding the far turn following splits of 47 3/5 and 1:11 2/5. The pair burst clear entering the stretch.
"Right when we broke I kind of looked over to see what was happening," said Talamo. "I saw those two horses go, so right away I got him outside. Man, he ran like a real nice horse today.
"We won an allowance race at Hollywood Park where he sat just off the pace, so there was never really a doubt, and he really did it nice today. I either wanted to be on an easy lead, or have somebody go. I really didn't want a speed duel at all.
"The tactics today were great. Two horses went to the lead and he laid right off. He's such a professional horse in the way he relaxes and does things so easy. It was just a great race."
Spurrier, ridden by Rafael Bejarano, edged Quindici Man, with Patrick Valenzuela aboard, for the place. Early leader Red Door Drive faded to fourth, a nose behind Quindici Man and one length ahead of Dakota Phone. The latter, who carried high weight of 123 pounds, never mounted a threat under Joel Rosario.
Aggie Engineer, who paid $5.40 for the victory, earned $90,000 from his biggest career victory in the race that has served as a time-honored steppingstone to the Grade I Santa Anita Handicap since 1935.
