Oops! The replacement ref who worked the now infamous Packers-Seahawks game said he may have made a mistake.
The NFL will not fine Green Bay Packers offensive lineman T.J. Lang or any other member of the team who sent out profane or inflammatory tweets following Monday night's controversial conclusion against the Seattle Seahawks, according to Jason La Canfora of CBSSports.com.
Lang was one of the more vocal members of the team, even going as far to challenge the NFL to fine him so that they would be able to afford the salaries of the regular officials.
According to La Canfora, the league has stated that instead of pursuing disciplinary action against any of the players, they will instead focus on coming to a resolution with the members of the NFL Referees Association, which is currently locked out due to a labor dispute.
Wednesday morning Chris Mortensen of ESPN reported that the two sides are nearing a new deal that potentially could have the regular officials back by this weekend.
One of the replacement referees from the Packers-Seahawks game partied into the night on Tuesday -- and took pictures with a Packers fan.
Walt Anderson, a locked out NFL referee, weighed in on the final play of the Packers-Seahawks game. In an interview with Kevin Kietzman on WHB in Kansas City, Anderson said,
"I would've reversed it to an interception. I just feel like that the defensive player established control, certainly a greater degree of control than the receiver, both in the air and going to the ground. Just the fact that a receiver ends up having a hand on the ball does not necessarily constitute control. I felt like, watching it live, it was an interception. And watching all the replays, I would've come to the same conclusion had I been making the decision."
Anderson went on to say, "But it's pretty clear-cut, in terms of who has control whenever they finish the process of the catch. In my mind, I feel like it's an interception."
Anderson has been an NFL referee since 2003. Before that, he served as a line judge for seven years. He worked as a dentist before retiring in 2003.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had plenty to be livid about after losing Monday night's game against the Seattle Seahawks on a controversial call by replacement referees, but he sounded more frustrated than angry in comments made on The Aaron Rodgers Show Tuesday morning.
When asked what he thought of the officiating that gave the Seahawks a 14-12 victory on a Hail Mary pass that appeared to be intercepted by Packers safety M.D. Jennings, Rodgers addressed the broader issue.
"First of all, I've got to do something that the NFL is not going to do, and I have to apologize to the fans. Our sport (has) generated a multi-billion dollar machine, by people who pay good money to come watch us play. And the product on the field is not being complemented by an appropriate set of officials. The games are getting out of control," said Rodgers.
Rodgers later added that he was unimpressed by the NFL's statement about the call, saying that they were "covering their butt." He didn't go as far as to post NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's phone number on his Facebook page, or make any profane comments, but it's clear the eighth-year veteran is incredibly frustrated, and rightfully so.
If the NFL is aiming for some new, anarchical-level of strat on Twitter, replacement refs are the way to go!
While Packers fans were angry after Monday's game, Seahawks fans started the party.
Packers fans were outraged when the referee made the final ruling in Monday night's game. See what happened here.
The NFL released a statement Tuesday in which they addressed the controversial final play in Monday night's game between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks. But fans expecting the league to come out and say the replacement referees did a terrible job will be disappointed. The NFL concluded that any time two players go to the ground with the ball, the catch always defaults to the offensive player, which in this case was Seattle wide receiver Golden Tate.
The league agrees with referee Wayne Elliott that there was no indisputable visual evidence to overturn the call on the field. In other words, they did not conclude that M.D. Jennings, the Packers' defensive back, had full possession of the ball, as it was shared with Tate, who gets the nod because he plays on offense.
Referee Wayne Elliott determined that no indisputable visual evidence existed to overturn the call on the field, and as a result, the on-field ruling of touchdown stood. The NFL Officiating Department reviewed the video today and supports the decision not to overturn the on-field ruling following the instant replay review.
The result of the game is final.
Rules cited include everything in the NFL rulebook that has to do with completing a catch, which includes having clear control of the ball all the way to the ground. It's an odd rule to cite given how unclear everything actually was on that play. There are simultaneous-catch rules, which are cited at the end of the statement that corroborate the earlier note that offensive players get the nod in those situations.
Outside of the actual catch and the simultaneous rules, the NFL agreed that there should have been an offensive pass interference call when Tate shoved Sam Shields, and that it should have ended the game. Such a play is not reviewable in instant replay, however.

The Seattle Seahawks defeated the Green Bay Packers, 14-12, on a controversial last-second touchdown on Monday night, and the ending will be hotly debated in the weeks to come. Lost in all that debate will be how well the Seattle defense performed against one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL.
Danny Kelly, of SB Nation's Field Gulls, understands the ending was botched, but the dominating performance by the Seahawks front-four has him excited:
Outside of the final hail-mary debacle, the Seahawks' defense was the real story of the game, for me. Seattle's attacking pass rush sacked Aaron Rodgers eight times in the first half and had him pressed on nearly every play. Chris Clemons played out of his gourde on the outside, grabbing a ridiculous four sacks, four quarterback hits, and four tackles for a loss; Brandon Mebane was unblockable on the inside, racking up two sacks and three quarterback hits, and rookie Bruce Irvin added two sacks and three quarterback hits.
The Seattle defense held the Packers to just 268 yards on a meager 3.9 yards per play. Aaron Rodgers was under siege for most of the night, and could get nothing going down the field, leading to just 5.7 yards per pass attempt. Factor in the sacks and Rodgers' scrambling efforts, and the Packers gained just 201 net yards on 49 dropbacks.
It was an outstanding effort by the defense and that will have Seahawks fans excited about their chances going forward. With the win, the Seahawks move to 2-1 and look to contend in a challenging NFC West.

Reacting to the Packers-Seahawks Monday night showdown, Kevin McCauley of Acme Packing Company wrote, "the final play of the game was a complete farce."
The Packers and Seahawks played a 60-minute football game on Monday, and ran a combined 119 plays, but most fans, players, and bloggers are focused on the final seconds of the very last play.
He goes on to say:
"Golden Tate interfered with Sam Shields in the end zone, then M.D. Jennings intercepted Wilson. The referees signaled for a touchdown, and the Seahawks won.
If any good comes out of this play -- which was only the worst call in what was almost certainly the most poorly officiated professional sporting event I've ever watched -- it will be the event that forces Roger Goodell to pick up the phone to the professional referees and ask them to name their price. If the Packers had to lose to save the integrity of the NFL going forward, at least this nonsensical game did some good for sport."

Following a controversial ending to Monday's Packers-Seahawks game, the NFL is expected to address the final play on Tuesday, according to NFL.com.
The league will have to explain whether referees were correct in awarding Seahawks wide receiver Golden Tate with a game-winning touchdown. The touchdown was originally justified under the NFL's Rule 8, Section 1, Article 3, Item 5, which reads:
"If a pass is caught simultaneously by two eligible opponents, and both retain it, the ball belongs to the passers. It is not a simultaneous catch if a player gains control first and an opponent subsequently gains joint control."
If you haven't seen the play, Seattle's Russell Wilson threw a Hail Mary pass as time was expiring, with the Seahawks trailing by five points. Several Packers defenders went up for the ball in addition to Tate.
Two referees who were close to the play signaled different calls: One ruled that Tate had caught a touchdown. The other simultaneously indicated that Green Bay defender M.D. Jennings had caught the ball, thus resulting in a touchback.
After review, the play was ruled a touchdown, and Seattle won the game.

The refs blew the call on the final play of the Packers-Seahawks game and here's why that's great news.
On the final play of the controversial victory of the Seattle Seahawks over the Green Bay Packers, Seahawks wideout Golden Tate ended up "catching" a football that M.D. Jennings originally appeared to intercept. Jennings went down to the ground and still appeared to have possession of the football, only to have Tate rip he ball away at the end of the play and get simultaneous possession awarded to him--even when Jennings clearly had maintained possession of the ball once he got to the ground.
Before that though, Tate committed what looked like a blatant pass interference when he pushed off a Green Bay defender (you can see him flying) before he goes down to the ground and "gains simultaneous possession of the football." Judge for yourself.
Tate seems pretty convinced he didn't push off though. I mean how more convincing does it get than this interview after the fact? The denial is quite strong with this one.
I'm guessing Tate is a pretty popular man at this moment in the city of Seattle, but being involved in two controversial moments during the game is not going to endear him to the fans in Green Bay.
Talk about the result with Seahawks fans at Field Gulls, and with Packers fans at Acme Packing Company.
The hits just keep coming from the NFL following the conclusion of Monday night's game between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks.
Hot on the heels of an unfortunate and quickly deleted tweet from the official NFL Twitter feed and amid a flurry of incensed tweets from players and observers, the NFL put up a picture on their official Facebook page that appeared to be designed to intentionally draw the ire of Packers fans -- or perhaps just NFL fans in general. The Facebook post and associated picture has since been taken down.
The below screencap comes to us courtesy of @BCSGuru and an SB Nation reader:
The picture -- which was likely the most recent available "Seahawks player catching a football" picture available on the presswire at the time -- did not in any way show the controversial play that ended the game in a Seahawks win. The posting of the picture along with the caption and even the URL of the associated story could be viewed as a whitewashing of the call on the field issued by the replacement referees. At the very least, it would at first blush appear to be a slap in the face of Packers fans.
Just an unfortunate evening for the NFL and their attempted engagement with fans via social media. An unfortunate evening for football all around.

The Seattle Seahawks and Green Bay Packers saw their tense Week 3 game come to an unfortunate end on Monday as a controversial call by the replacement referees awarded the game to the Seahawks.
Immediately after the game, the official NFL Twitter feed sent out a tweet, reading simply, "Touchdown or Interception? #GBvsSEA"
Many fans rightfully found this tweet to be in exceptionally poor taste at best and a willful admission of their screw-up at worst. The tweet did not stay up very long, as it was quickly deleted. The deleting of the tweet did nothing more than call more attention to it, however.
Wow, @nfl deleted this tweet! RT @nfl: Touchdown or Interception? #GBvsSEA— Anthony De Rosa (@AntDeRosa) September 25, 2012
The aftermath of this game will have long-lasting impact and will only add more fuel to the fire started by running the season with replacement referees in the first place. While this may not be the straw that breaks the camel's back when it comes to the stalemate between the NFL and the referees, the refs gain more and more leverage all the time with calls like these.

Monday night's game between the Seattle Seahawks and Green Bay Packers ended with one of the most -- if not the most -- controversial calls in NFL history.
A hail Mary as time expired was ruled to be a game-ending touchdown for the Seahawks, even though the play appeared to be a Packers interception and touchback.
The outrage started immediately on the broadcast and on Twitter, as analysts and fans alike voiced their displeasure in the call by the replacement referees.
Not long after the game ended, NFL players and other notable sports figures began chiming in on the decision. Here is a roundup of the reactions.

If there was a perfect way to cap Week 3 of the NFL season, it was this. Standing in the end zone at CenturyLink Field, with a pile of bodies at their feet, two replacement refs signal two different things. There was no time on the clock. The Seahawks could only win with a touchdown. And the ball came down in the hands of two players -- one a Green Bay Packer, the other a Seahawk.
As the crowd roared, the refs gave different signals: one holding both arms up for a touchdown; the other waving his arms as if the pass was intercepted. This, friends, was the nightmare scenario for the NFL. After all the headshot and bad calls this week -- and all season, really -- this was the perfect visual ammo for the NFLPA.
M.D. Jennings went up over everyone and brought the ball in. He had it first, and it was pretty dang obvious. Golden Tate managed to not only latch on, but convince the referees that he had the ball.
That's Jennings' ball, right? Look closer. Sure, everyone in the crowd erupts, but Jennings appears to have had control. He's the one over everyone (43) going up to high-point the ball.
This angle, coincidently, was shot from about where the back judge was looking at the play. He was the one who called it an interception.
But you know what? I'm a Seahawks fan. I lived and died with this game. So hey, keep the replacement refs. They just won us a game.*
*View subject to change when karma strikes next week.
The Seattle Seahawks defeated the Green Bay Packers on an incredible last second hail mary attempt that ended with Golden Tate wrestling the ball away from M.D. Jennings. It appeared Jennings pulled down the interception but the refs ruled a Tate touchdown that resulted in a 14-12 Seahawks win. The play was reviewed on replay and the refs upheld the call to preserve the Seattle win.
With no timeouts and less than a minute to play, the Seahawks got one final chance after forcing a Green Bay 3-and-out inside their own 5-yard line. Taking over at the 45-yard line, Wilson would move the Seahawks inside the 25 before being forced to heave it into the end zone. An animated gif of the play:
The amazing play ended a half in which the Packers controlled the ball nearly the entire 30 minutes. The Packers finally scored their first touchdown with just under nine minutes remaining in the game, taking their first lead.
Cedric Benson punched it in from 1 yard out for his first touchdown in a Packers uniform. It looked like Green Bay would settle for the third Mason Crosby field goal of the half, but Mike McCarthy challenged the spot on a third-down scramble by Aaron Rodgers.
The original spot, which was well short of the first down, was overturned and the Packers were given a new set of downs inside the 5-yard line. Benson took advantage one play later to take the 5-point lead. Green Bay had the ball almost the entire second half, with the Seahawks going 3-and-out on their first two possessions.
But Wilson and the Seattle offense would take advantage of one final chance, ending it with the amazing Tate touchdown.

The Green Bay Packers are on the board, eating up clock on two third quarter possessions that resulted in two Mason Crosby field goals. The Packers used running back Cedric Benson throughout the third, mixing in the pass and run to cut the Seattle lead to 7-6. The Seahawks offense had the ball for just four plays.
Green Bay was held scoreless for nearly 37 minutes before finally breaking through. They opened the second half with a drive that stalled out in the red zone, bringing on Crosby for the 29-yard field goal. On third and five, it looked like Aaron Rodgers might find Donald Driver for a touchdown but the the reigning MVP had to move around in the pocket and throw on the run. The ball was too high for Driver as he came across the back of the end zone. Seattle rushed just three men on the play, a situation Rodgers typically picks apart but once again the Packers offense had trouble finding room to operate.
The second drive stalled out just outside the red zone, ending with a Crosby 40-yard field goal. The drive was prolonged moments earlier when Seatlle was whistled for illegal hands to the face fifty yards away from a Cedric Benson run that came up short of the first-down marker. The additional first down put Green Bay well within Crosby's range.
While Rodgers was pressured in the third quarter, he was not sacked -- a drastic improvement for the Packers after the catastrophic first half. But the Seahawks defense still buckled down when Green Bay entered their territory, keeping the Packers out of the end zone.

In the first half of Monday night's game between the Green Bay Packers and the Seattle Seahawks, Aaron Rodgers was sacked an astounding eight times, prompting celebrations of the defensive achievement. Each one of the celebrations was unique and beautiful, like a snowflake. A violent, violent snowflake. Let us examine these celebrations ... together.
Here was the first celebration.
Elation. Jumping. Mockery of a touchdown dance that has become a shill for an insurance company. Fluorescent gloves.
(The second sack was a phantom sack, so there was no celebration, but credit was still given to the Seahawks because Rodgers had the misfortune to fall down in a silly manner and get laid upon.)
The third sack:
Jumping again. Surprise affection. A chest-bump that becomes a tender hug, followed by an aftershock chest-bump. Little pats on the helmet. Smiles for everyone. This is sweet and special.
The fourth celebration:
A slight tinge of the Hulk Hogan hand-to-the-ear is abandoned and a muscular pose is struck. By this time, childlike glee has yielded to stoic machismo. It is an interesting transition. The sacker has become an adult. Well, except for the guy falling down and doing a bear crawl of happiness.
The fifth sack:
Sophomoric and derivative. The sign of an artist attempting to find his way, but merely offering a retread of what we've heard before. The critics turn on him.
The sixth sack:
Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, the auteur returns to form. "How could we ever have doubted you," the critics wail. We are sorry. We love you.
The seventh sack:
Like the majestic eagle, he soars. Oh, the majestic Seahawk. Sorry. Back to being repetitive, but only at the end. Celebrations are hard, but that smile is infectious.
The eighth and final sack (of the first half):
And at the end, we return to the state of infancy. Going out kicking and screaming, just like he came in. That's a line from a Garth Brooks song. It has no place here.

The Seahawks and Packers played the longest scoreless game of the NFL season so far, with Seattle finally breaking through for the game's first touchdown with just over six minutes remaining in the half. The Seahawks' defense was the story of the first half, constantly getting to MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers to shut down the Packers.
Seattle's defense has harassed Rodgers, sacking him eight times through the first 30 minutes. That ties a record for the most times Rodgers has been sacked in an entire game. The Green Bay offensive line was overwhelmed by the Seahawks' pass rush on both the interior and around the end. Veteran defensive end Chris Clemons, who had 11 sacks in each of the last two seasons, already has four in the first half on Monday night.
Seattle finally ended the scoreless tie when Russell Wilson connected with Golden Tate for a 41-yard touchdown. The play was preceded by a 15-yard retaliation penalty by Packers linebacker D.J. Smith, setting up the Seahawks in Green Bay territory and enabling them to take a deep shot down the field on first down. The Packers pushed up, putting eight men in the box and keying on the run. Wilson found the speedy Tate in one-on-one coverage on the outside. Tate put a double move on Tramon Williams and Wilson hit him in stride down the right side as he crossed the goal line. A gif of the score:
The Packers will now get the ball to start the second half, hoping to find some answers for their pass protection in the locker room. The only time they were held scoreless in the first half last season was in a loss to the Chiefs, their only defeat of the season.

After 15 minutes in Seattle, the Seahawks and Packers are still scoreless on Monday Night Football. Each team had three first downs but neither was able to put together a sustained drive as the defenses dominated with constant pressure on the quarterbacks. It was Clay Matthews chasing Russell Wilson down on one side and Bruce Irvin getting to Aaron Rodgers on the other.
Continuing an early season trend, the game was a bit chippy in the first quarter and there were plenty of penalties. The teams had to be separated a few times in scrums after the play. Seattle rookie Irvin also mocked the well-known and oft-advertised Green Bay celebration after a sack of Rodgers:
Rodgers was sacked three times in the Packers' first 10 offensive plays, including twice by Irvin. The speedy rush end has been beating Bryan Bulaga on the right side of the Packers line. It was the first time Rodgers had been sacked three times in the game's opening quarter. The infamously loud crowd at CenturyLink Field certainly seems to be having an impact early, with Green Bay's offensive linemen a step slow off the snap count.
Green Bay's offense was the envy of the league last year, but they have yet to score in the first quarter this season.

Green Bay Packers receiver Greg Jennings has been declared active for Monday night's contest against the Seattle Seahawks.
Wide receiver Greg Jennings will be on the field on Monday night when the Green Bay Packers visit the Seattle Seahawks, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Jennings has been dealing with a groin injury that forced him to miss Green Bay's victory over the Chicago Bears in Week 2.
Jennings appeared in Green Bay's Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, catching five balls for 34 yards. After not missing a single game for three seasons between 2008 and 2010, Jennings missed Green Bay's final two games in 2011 with an unrelated injury before returning for the team's second round playoff loss to the New York Giants.
In 2011, Jennings caught 67 passes for 949 yards and nine touchdowns, but has been usurped by Jordy Nelson as Green Bay's No. 1 receiver.

After a season that saw the Spartans finish towards the bottom of the country in offense, Tom Anastos' crew probably hoped for an offensive outburst this weekend to start the season off right. Unfortunately for the MSU hockey team, the season opening series at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst brought many of the same frustrations. The Spartans stand at 0-2 after losing 3-1 Friday night and 5-2 Saturday night at Mullins Arena.
Friday night's contest started off pretty encouraging for the Spartans. After the first period, MSU had outshot the Minutemen 15-10. To put that into context, the Spartans averaged only 25.6 shots per game last season leading Anastos to make shooting more often a focus this offseason. At 3:26 on the 2nd period, the theme of the weekend made its first appearance. Branden Gracel opened the scoring for the Minutemen on a power play, the first of 5 power play goals Amherst would score out of 13 opportunities on the weekend. The Spartans entered the third period trailing 2-0 after giving up a late even strength goal and pulled within one after senior Greg Wolfe scored with 7 minutes remaining. The Spartans would pull Jake Hildebrand for an extra attacker and give up an empty net goal to Gracel leading to the final score of 3-1.
On Saturday night, Anastos went to his goalie rotation by inserting senior Will Yanakeff between the pipes. The first period once again was the best period for the Spartans as they held two leads, 1-0 and 2-1, and outshot the Minutemen 14-9. Sophomore Michael Ferrantino opened the scoring for the Spartans 5 minutes in with a wrist shot from the slot. After Amherst scored their first of four (4!!) power play goals, Greg Wolfe answered with a 5 on 3 power play goal for the Spartans that held up for a 2-1 lead after one.
The second period left room for improvement for MSU and that's an understatement. The Spartans were outshot 14-8, surrendered three power play goals and an even strength goal and never got back into the game after leaving the ice trailing 5-2 after 2. Clearly a focus this week will have to be penalty killing after having a horrendous 61.5% kill rate. For a team that is so offensively challenged you simply cannot afford to allow opponents to score on nearly 40% of their man advantage opportunities.
Positives From The Weekend
- Both nights the team got above the 30 shot mark, recording 32 Friday and 33 Saturday
-Impressive to outshoot a home team in the first period both nights. That bodes well for the season as slow starts are even more daunting when confidence in scoring is not there
-Hildebrand starting off the season riding the momentum from his hot finish last season with 32 saves Friday night
- Senior Captain Greg Wolfe getting a goal each night. Last season's top 6 scorers were underclassman and senior scoring is a nice boost to see
B1G Hockey Recap
- Penn State was swept on the road at Air Force, Wisconsin was beat 9-2 Friday by Boston College and 7- 3 Saturday by Boston University. Minnesota swept Bemidji State at home, Michigan traveled to New Hampshire and earned a tie and win, and Ohio State had the weekend off.
Next Up
The Spartans continue the B1G-Hockey East Challenge with two games at Munn Ice Arena October 25-26. Friday brings the scuffling preseason No. 1 team Massachusetts Lowell (1-3) into East Lansing. On Saturday, Boston University rolls into town after playing in Ann Arbor on Friday.

A Minnesota-based brewery who donates 50 percent of its profits can now be bought across South Carolina.
Founding Fathers Brewing Company has two brews, Founding Fathers Lager and Founding Fathers Light, that are for sale in some local grocery and liquor stores.
The company said profits collected in South Carolina will go to the Armed Forces Relief Trust and the South Carolina National Guard Association.
The company is formally launching its beers at the Greenville Drive game on Friday, though the beer has been for sale in the state for a few months.
Founding Fathers are for sale at all Publix Supermarkets, Greens, Total Wine and coming soon to Bi-Lo stores and.
Phil Knutsen, Founder, President and CEO, said the beers are crafted to compete with Miller, Bud and Coors, which he said are foreign-owned operations unlike Founding Fathers.

Okay so now that the combine is over and free agency is set to begin, time for my wish lists of players that I feel who could provide an impact and depth the 49ers need to help win games. Last year I provided some rookie names and what they could add to the team. Only one of my wish list guys (Lattimore) was drafted. This year I am going to provide some scenarios to what could happen in free agency FA and the draft and what they could bring the table. Sorry if my list seems a little SEC bias, but some of these guys played at a high level and did declare for the draft. So with that being said, here goes my wish list.
Mike Evans- WR Texas A&M 6-5/231 4.53
Dream Scenario: FA signed Anquan Bolden and Devin Hester (Special Team Impact play who should want to play for a Super Bowl contender).
Why should the 49ers go after Evans? Simple, he plays with a mean streak and knows how to utilize his physic to outduel CBs for the ball. He put up some great numbers against some of the top teams in the SEC and has that run after the catch ability. Who better to teach Evans how to master his craft than Bolden! Here are some quotes from NFL Network, 'Productive playmaker -- averaged 20 yards per catch in 2013 and showed up in big games (18-566-5 vs. Alabama and Auburn). Good blocker. Physically dominant and tough.'
Martavis Bryant WR Clemson 6-4/211 4.42
Scenario: FA signed Anquan Bolden and the 49ers can get Crabtree for the right price
49ers 1st round pick is a defensive player and 2nd round pick
Why should the 49ers draft Bryant? The guy has that separation speed the team is wanting and has the height to fight for the ball for a red zone threat. He has a little mean streak in him (he did a throat slash during a game to get in the coach's dog house) and with a little coaching could be that vertical threat the team is looking for. He is my X factor big play guy. He will have the opportunity to learn under two of premiere wideouts and can compete with Patton who will only get better during the season. I can see this guy being that guy that will challenge physical corners and force referees to make the interference call in the red zone.
Aaron Murray QB Georgia 6-1/207 guestimate (4.70)
Scenario: FA signed veteran QB (Freeman is rumor)
So why should the 49ers draft a guy that does not fit the type of QB that could back up Kap? I watch this guy and the players seem to rally around this guy. He's got a quick release and can elude the pass rusher to stretch the play. Also, he has great accuracy in the short to intermediate areas. I love this guy's intangibles and work ethics. Here's the something else to ponder; the 49ers has a knack for stashing players for a year when they are coming off a major injury. We can draft him in the later 3rd or 4th round bring him along during the season or next season. Within 2 or 3 years he will be a player that teams could see as a legitimate starter thus getting a 2nd or gasp even a 1st rounder (I know I know it's a stretch).
Carlos Hyde – RB Ohio St. 6-0/230 4.66
Scenario: FA Dixon is not resigned
All targeted 1st round players are drafted and following BPA plan
Why should the 49ers draft Hyde? Gore has been the epitome of a franchise running back and will still be the number one priority for any defense. The 49ers will need to rotate more guys in order to keep Gore fresh for the long playoff run next season. This guy is physical but has the speed to get to next level. Some of his ability almost the same as Frank the Tank and to learn how to pass block from one of the greats will only help him and Kap for years to come. From NFL Network, "Punishes linebackers running downhill and almost always falls forward. Superb contact balance and finishing strength -- does not go down easily and can barrel through arm tackles. Extremely powerful short-yardage/goal-line runner". He is considered by some the best RB in the draft so I can see a team trading to draft him.
C.J. Fiedorowicz TE Iowa 6-5/265
Scenario: Are you crazy they drafted McDonald?
Why should the 49ers target another TE in the early rounds? Simple, when Davis was injured; the team offence became limited. Do not get me wrong, McDonald is a hell of a blocker but the he needs to be challenged just like all other players. And why not get a guy that can cause several mismatch in our division. The guy has size and can catch the ball in traffic. He has the speed to run the seam and tough to bring down on initial contact. What better way to inflict punishment on CB is to have a TE run them over and bring the pain. Also, he fit the Balke long arms and hands draft stock. I like to see the 49ers have a big target weapon TE for a change.
Xavier Grimble TE USC 6-4/257 guestimate (4.70) range
Scenario: You still trying to go there in the later rounds?
There is nothing like seeing a TE that is difficult to bring down and loves to punish defensive backs. This guy has been a beast for USC (when healthy) and even during the turmoil at coaching and has the ability to come in and contribute this team (with proper coaching). From NFL Network, "Can work the middle of the field, take a hit and maintain possession. Good hands -- can extend to catch and is a reliable short-to-intermediate receiver. Has the look of a throwback with the ball in his hands -- rumbles downfield and is a load to bring down".
Vinnie Sunseri –SS Alabama 5-11/210 guessing 4.60
Scenario: Hitner is resigned
Late round pick (compensatory)
So why should the 49ers pick Sunseri? The guy is a playmaker hands down. How many players have games why they get a pick 6? Well this guy had multiple pick 6 in multiple games. Before the injury I was looking at this guy as player the team could use. I see him as a backup for depth and special team gunner he would fit right in when healthy. We have ample picks so why not draft this guy and stash him away for next year were he can fully recover from his injuries.
This is only a dreamer's wish and I know that out of these entire picks maybe one or none will pick by the 49ers. However, knowing that if they do pick one of these guys I saw something that the scouts, GM, HC, and Position Coach saw in film. Come on May!

Apple of Eden #1 was one of the Pieces of Eden, a piece of ancient and technologically advanced equipment created by the First Civilization to control humankind. It was the first among several other Apples of Eden.
- First Civilization (? - ?)[1]
- Napoleon Bonaparte (? - ?)[2]
- Harry Houdini (? - 1926)[3]
- Templars (1926 - ?)[3][4]
The first known human possessor of the Apple was Napoleon Bonaparte, a key member of the French Revolution, and a military and political leader of France, who later became Emperor of France under the name Napoleon I.[2]
The next known owner of the Apple was Harry Houdini, a Hungarian-American magician and escapologist. He used the Apple to execute stunts that, even to this day, are considered impossible. While Houdini officially died from peritonitis from a ruptured appendix, Clay Kaczmarek's Glyphs suggested that Houdini had been killed by Templar agents who wished to take possession of his Apple.[3]
The Apple was later used in the assassination of John F. Kennedy, to cause the "Phantom on the Hill" effect. This effect created the illusion of a second gunman on the grassy knoll of Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas. The goal of this illusion was to make it more difficult to persecute Lee Harvey Oswald - a Templar sleeper agent - later on, and to disguise the true intentions of the Templar-executed assassination from later investigation.[4]

KLTV 7 has joined the "Made in America" movement started by ABC News and Diane Sawyer.
Here is how it works: The average shopper usually spends about $750 on holiday gifts. If everyone spent only about $65, or 8%, of that on American-made gifts, we could potentially create hundreds of thousands of jobs for Americans.
Shannon's Beading Basket and Gallery in Longview offers several products made right here in the USA.
It is something owner Shannon Gilliland is proud of.

Is bad coverage causing low ratings or are low ratings causing bad coverage?
By admin | October 6, 2010
By Richard Allen
Which came first, the chicken or the egg? What relevance does that question have for a NASCAR column? Well, it would be difficult to find very many fans who have been pleased with the network television coverage of NASCAR racing in 2010. And the ratings indicate that fans are staying away from televised races in droves.
So, is it bad coverage that is causing the low ratings or is it low ratings causing the bad coverage? In other words, have people turned away because they are so dissatisfied with the broadcasts that they cannot watch no matter how much they may enjoy racing? Or, have the networks realized they have bought into a dying sport and have simply thrown in the towel on racing coverage by trying to minimize the damage as they get through the current contract period?
I wrote a piece earlier this year in which I stated my opinion that the coverage of NASCAR by Fox has grown stale. The network has made virtually no changes since coming to the sport in 2001. That has resulted in telecast after telecast filled with the same stories, the same explanations and the same jokes that have been told for nine years.
The ABC/ESPN group has tried a very different approach. They first began their coverage by trying to give NASCAR 'credibility' by using pre-race hosts better known for covering other sports. They have since changed up the pre-race team as well as offering up a number of different booth personalities.
ABC/ESPN even went so far as to change the channel altogether this season by moving most of the races they show from ABC to ESPN. The result has been some of the most dismal ratings NASCAR has seen since the inception of the massive network TV contract in 2001.
ESPN has been criticized for seemingly over commercializing their broadcasts. This has been so much of an issue that last week NASCAR writer Dustin Long offered twitter updates throughout the race in Kansas telling how long the network was spending in its race coverage versus its commercial time.
My opinion of the coverage NASCAR is getting is that the television networks are not doing the sport any favors. Whether it be the stale offerings of Fox or the inconsistent and heavily commercialized showings of ESPN, neither is the showing racing in the best light.
At the same time, however, I believe the networks have seen the writing on the wall and can't be totaled blamed for what is happening. The empty grandstands indicate there is a growing lack of interest in NASCAR and they are trying to get out of the bad deals they made with as few loses as possible. Fox seems to have chosen keeping costs low by making very few changes while ESPN seems to be trying to bring in as much revenue as they can by selling every possible minute of air time.
In the end, the poor coverage is causing low ratings and the low ratings in turn are causing bad coverage. Ultimately, my guess is that NASCAR can expect a far less lucrative contract the next time they negotiate with the networks.

Dunno about the ratings, but I do know that FOX is the only broadcast I can stand. TNT is unwatchable, and ESPN isn't much better… they both feel like some low-quality European broadcast.

I only got to see commercials when flipping between the race, Phillies game and the Eagles/Redskins. Everytime I switched back to the race a commercial was on.

I still really enjoy Fox's broadcast. TNT is really good, but only for the Coke Zero 400 with the wide open coverage. I wish they used that every race rather than making it seem like such a special thing. ESPN is the worst. The broadcast team is stale, way too many commercials, and too much emphasis on Danica when she is at the track. But what really iritates me about ESPN is they have the technology to do the side-by-side coverage and they chose not to. Instead they throw commercials down our throat every 10 laps. I feel that ESPN is trying to kill this sport with their coverage. I will always watch on TV, but that does not mean I will enjoy it.

I refuse to buy cable. I cannot watch Nascar. Put it on over the air T.V. or watch your market share suffer even more.

If ESPN is trying to cut costs, how bout cutting some of the 12 members of their race broadcast. Dougherty, Rusty, and Brewer could all go as far as I'm concerned. The broadcast will be better for it. Better yet, only use 3 guys in the booth and the pit reporters. That's all you need. You would also save money by not having to haul that moving studio all over the country.
The day the networks start going back to keeping the broadcasts simple will be the day that watching a race on tv will be enjoyable again.

I know its not perfect by all means, but to me Fox has the best of the Nascar Broadcast!
I personally liked the 'old Espn back in the ninties and late eighties with Bob Jenkins! I think they were the best of all time!
This crew on ESPN has gone too many Dale Carnagie Courses to be calling a Nascar Event! They seem to stiff and almost like calling a golf match!
oldnascar Says:
October 7th, 2010 at 4:59 pm
One of the problems is the poor coverage of the race. Each week they give the same thing ,explaining what push and loose mean, we need clean air for the cars to handle ,etc.
TOO much useless talk in the booth. Not enough coverage with the rest of the field, there ar more than 10/12 on the track. Maybe if they give more coverage to these other teams and mention the cars sponsors this would help teams keep and get sponsorship
Maybe give a little profile a driver or a crew member might be nice.
they need to do more of the split screen coverage the race
Lou Says:
October 7th, 2010 at 11:01 pm
it's bad everything in nascar that is hurting the sport , the thing that really ticks me off is a caution being thrown for a piece of paper and they lose 10 laps because of this , not only would the race go faster but people go and tune into races TO WATCH THE CARS GO FAST , not to follow a pace car going 55 mph , THE GARBAGE rules , the tinkering with rules, and now maybe another some tweek with the chase , wtf , and they worry about the start and parkers PLEASE , and I have been watching and attending races since the late 70s , and this is the first year I havent attended a race since 1986 and I had major surgery that year , and you know what ? I didnt even miss it . at my peak I would go to atleast 12 a year

IROC didn't work and neither does COT, got back to real cars with bumpers and different looking and then you will have real racing and some of the crowd will come back. TV is not the problem, the product is!!

Steve says it the best, and in the old days you didn't have to hear about two rounds in the rear a wedge adjustment and all that junk that they throw out about the race car. I sick of hearing how Kyle Busch is the greatest, when he drove for Hendrick did he not have the best equiipment, did he set the world on fire, no but give him and the other Gibbs guys the billion dollar Toyota engine and that makes them great drivers.
Dar Says:
October 16th, 2010 at 11:29 pm
I personally also like Fox coverage. Its way better then the other two. I live in Canada and we barely get any of the races because they are on ESPN and the channel that covers sports in Canada rarely covers the race. That can't help the ratings any. I think this past race at Charlotte was the first race we seen all chase and before that. I think they should take it off ESPN so maybe the Canadian fans can watch NASCAR.
Bernie Says:
November 20th, 2010 at 3:25 pm
Agree entirely with Dar, above. Am also in Canada. 2010…
I haven't seen so few NASCAR races as this year, because of NASCAR's deal with ESPN.
TSN's what I'm stuck with: Have the full over-priced cable package, too. For now.
Homestead's tomorrow. TSN's showing…Football.

Man burned during house fire
Published On: Dec 14 2013 07:15:58 PM CST
A Winterville man suffered minor burns in a house fire Saturday night.
Fire crews were called to the 2600 block of Garland Road just before 6 p.m.
Crews arrived to find smoke and flames coming from the home.
The blaze started as a cooking fire, a fire official said.
Most of the family members were not home at the time of the fire; the father, in his 30s, was home and was cooking, a fire official said.
That man suffered minor burns to one of his hands, the fire official said.
There were no other reported injuries.
The damage to the home has displaced the family, which is now getting help from the Red Cross.

2Oh, Lindsay's Just Going to Stay Home Tonight
Guys, it's New Year's Eve! Can you even believe it? 2012 has been a hell of a year, and tonight is the night that we get embarrassingly wasted, like super mega crazy drunk, to celebrate it*. Are you pumped? Have you started pre-gaming yet?
Well, Lindsay hasn't. Nope, she hasn't had a drop of booze to drink, probably in years. So she's not pre-gaming, and she's definitely not going to party tonight. Got it? She's in London, and she's planning to have a "small, quiet dinner" before going "straight back to the hotel" to "chill" with some people. And she's doing all that because she wants to look good for her judge so she doesn't go to jail. Oh, and probably also so that she can focus on stalking that one guy from that one boy band that she hung out with for a hot minute.
So now that we know that we don't have to worry about Lindsay tonight, what are your plans for the evening?
*Or not. I'm going to be watching The Muppets and drinking hot chocolate, because that's how I party these days.

"Chilling with some friends" is alcoholic code for getting totally wasted with a bunch of random people…
Glad to see she's dating the age of her liver.

Jason Witten had four receptions for 62 yards off four targets to help the Dallas Cowboys defeat the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Witten led the Cowboys in receiving yardage, despite being targeted less than four other pass catchers.
Witten has had at least 50 yards receiving in all but two games since the Cowboys' Week 5 bye. He has yet to score a touchdown since Week 4, however. He saw his fewest targets since the season opener on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact: Witten remains a consistent starting fantasy tight end, despite the fact that he is incapable of finding the end zone. He has been a touchdown machine throughout his career, so it's a little maddening that he can't seem to hit paydirt. Dez Bryant is the Cowboys' go-to in the end zone, having caught a touchdown in five straight games.

« Go back
Go to main areas of concern »
Is a comparatively easy problem to solve.
You avoid foods with wheat, oats, barley and rye (which contain gluten). A lot of coeliacs
also need to avoid cows milk, and most likely all cow products (cheese, cream, butter, yoghurt etc.).
However, some people only need to avoid some of these as it is only one constituent of milk to which they react.
(See Section on Allergies).
I have heard recently that some coeliacs can take oats. Speaking as a celiac myself I definitely can NOT.
The only person who can possibly tell is YOU. Experiment only when you have time on your hands!
Apart from the most usual symptoms, e.g. diarrhoea, coeliac condition can manifest as arthritis, aching muscles,
headache, "flu like" symptoms, and also quite severe mental symptoms. A lot of "other" problems clear up,
permanently, when gluten is removed from the diet.
The good news is that so many people have discovered this, it is now much easier to get gluten-free products.
The major supermarkets all have excellent gluten free sections, containing all we require and even some of the
popular restaurant chains are marking "gluten-free" on their menus. Progress!

"We came across Foresight as we decided to try for our first child (we had previously had a miscarriage). We understood it as a different approach to healthy living and have kept on, despite not planning any more children, a lot of your principles and advice in our daily routine. We get our fresh produce (fruit, veg, dairy, eggs, meat) delivered from local organic farms and have not found our bills going up, as we stick to what we get! I threw aluminium cookware out and replaced it for glass or stainless steel and cut out artificially composed foods. We also did hair analysis and have been filtering our water for almost 4 years now (we have now invested in an osmosis filter) as our heavy metals were quite high.
We got pregnant immediately on both occasions and my pregnancies and births were both very straight forward (one water birth, one natural) and we now have two bright and healthy sparks challenging our existence (you didn't warn us about that!!)
I thank you for the encouragement on breastfeeding as I have a predisposition to hayfever and it seems that, so far, my children haven't got any! This, in my mind, is due to their healthy start in life thanks to your leadership and inspiration."

Okay, I have to ask. What is a weiner waltz? I've got images of Oscar Mayer and a guys' locker room shenanigans in my head and I don't think either of those are what's being referred to, but I suppose it could be referring to the latter as one overpowering another metaphorically.
What is this referring to? I was thinking clock until the second line.

Acute attention to the details of design, decoration and functionality are all earmarks of a talented interior designer. We're here to help with everything from the color of walnut floor stain to the exact location of the gallery light that will feature that special piece of art… More
In the media today there are many shades of green. And there are a myriad of ways to approach being "green" or " brown" or whatever you want to call it when building a new home. We'll help you to decide just how dark you want to shade it it… More
Thank you for building us such a beautiful home. The quality inside and out is unsurpassed. We knew when it was finished the house would be wonderful, but it has exceeded our expectations.

You cook turkey burgers like regular hamburgers
The Result: A dried out burger that sticks to the grill.
The Fix: A well-made turkey burger is a delicious, lower-fat backyard grill treat, but if you don't compensate for the leanness of the meat, you could be eating turkey-flavored particleboard. Mostly it's a matter of getting the patty off the grill before it dries out (or sticks and falls apart)—a job made trickier by the need to cook poultry to 165°. So, to avoid sawdust syndrome, add a little fat to the meat. Yes, add fat. This might seem counterproductive, but it's not if you use a fat that's heart-healthy.
The fat in question? Olive oil. Stirring in two tablespoons olive oil per pound of ground turkey keeps the burgers moist and juicy and also helps them form a nicely browned crust on the outside that won't stick to the grill.

This Is It
Where do I even start?
The Tube doesn't take Scottish pounds. And I should've brought my camera, and a map, with me on my first walk around the city.
I guess the whole experience is so overwhelming that it's those two little things that are sticking with me right now. It's about 8:30 local time (which is the only time that matters), and I'm sitting in a room, in London, living my life. How lucky can one person get?
My flight arrived twenty minutes late, which I suppose was good given that we left forty minutes late. That itself was good because the men and women of American Airlines decided today was not the day to strike. They knew it was important to me, I guess.
I was originally seated next to a Danish fellow, who, shortly after being seated, grunted something at the stewardess which, despite being unintelligible to me (and probably to her), resulted in his reseating, about twenty rows behind me. He was replaced in short order by a young French fellow who sat, silently, for the duration of the flight, watching Prometheus with French subs. That's a good seatmate, if you ask me.
Getting my 53 lb bag (should I be using kilograms now? I don't even know!) fifteen stops along the Picadilly line was a bit of a horrific ordeal — on a scale of first-world ordeals —, but was much improved by the interesting cast of characters that hopped on and off the train. A Chinese family, the matriarch of whom spoke no visible English, but whose daughter got by in broken tones and whose granddaughters chirped away with sharp London accents, sat across from me. Next to me was a rather corpulent fellow whose tired look, drooping mustache, and hard hat suggested he was a night construction worker. He dozed intermittently as the couple next to him, deliberately dressed in torn jeans and ripped t-shirts, made increasingly loud comments about the "plainness" of the people around them.
I exited the Tube, incidentally, right opposite a Tesco's Express, which, for those of you not blessed with a desire to buy the cheapest food available, is a British food market, roughly equivalent to our CVS or Walgreens, but with more food and less everything else. I mention it only because I'm sure it'll be a frequent character in future posts. Might as well you meet it now.
I've spent the hours since walking past the Tesco's to my dorm, Passfield Hall, trying to settle myself in my surrounding. For those of you who don't know me, settling is a pretty fundamental instinct for me. Wherever I am, and whatever I'm doing, I like to have a place that I can retreat to. It's what makes traveling very unsettling for me – the actual act of it. Being somewhere is wonderful. It's the going there, untethered, that gets quite unnerving for me.
I don't think it would be fair for me to try to capture my impressions of London right now. I've been here less than twelve hours. I'll try to get another post up in a few days, once I'm officially registered and have an ID card, and then maybe I can start to compare things. For now, I'm here. In London. This is it.

Mohegans Open Marketing Office In Palmer, Mass.
The Uncasville casino's owner, the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority, opened a marketing office Monday in downtown Palmer, the economically depressed town where it wants to develop a "mini-Mohegan Sun" on 150 acres already under lease.
Mohegan officials opened their Main Street office Monday in an invitation-only ceremony attended by Palmer officials and other community supporters.
On a new website for their proposed Palmer casino — www.mohegansun.com/palmer — the Mohegans say they "envision" a resort-style casino with poker and other live table games, plus slot machines, a 600-room hotel and spa, restaurants, retail and events spaces.
In an interview Monday afternoon, Jeffrey Hartmann, the tribal authority's chief operating officer, described the project as "a mini-Mohegan Sun."
He noted that it is contingent on the legislature's legalization of casino gambling.
"If an opportunity presents itself, we would like to pursue it," he said.
A large casino in Palmer — about 16 miles north of Stafford Springs on Route 32 — would probably sap some business from Mohegan's flagship Uncasville casino, but Hartmann said the tribe believes it would draw a greater number of new customers from northeastern New York state, Vermont and New Hampshire.
The tribe projects annual gambling revenues in Palmer of $475 million to $525 million, he said. Revenues currently total about $1.3 billion a year.
The marketing office will help the casino "introduce" itself to the community, he said. The new website says its project would create 5,500 direct and indirect jobs and about 1,100 shorter-term construction jobs.
Local casino opponent Emma Ladd Shepherd said she views the Mohegans' office as an attempt "to convince the public it's a done deal, that definitely their casino is coming to Palmer."
"All of the abutting towns are very upset," said Shepherd, a volunteer for Quaboag Valley Against Casinos, a political action committee. She lives in Monson, a neighboring town.
Two workers, a member of Mohegan's development team and a human resources officer, will occupy the Palmer office on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, Hartmann said.
In eastern Massachusetts, the Mashpee Wampanoags are trying to build a casino.

What's the shortest man you ever seen?
I seen a man so short, he had to get up on a box to look over a grain of sand.
And the fastest?
I seen a man run so hard that he lost his feets.
Back in the day, there were liars who could lie so good, you didn't even want to know the truth. And we have Zora Neale Hurston to thank for collecting their stories. In lies, Caldecott Honor and Coretta Scott King Honor artist Christopher Myers has created expressive collages that are as bold and wild as the whoppers Hurston encountered on her travels in the Gulf States. Here's a visual treat that will tickle your funny bone.
About the Author
Zora Neale Hurston (1891-1960) was a novelist, folklorist, and anthropologist whose fictional and factual accounts of black heritage remain unparalleled. Her many books include Dust Tracks on a Road; Their Eyes Were Watching God; Jonah's Gourd Vine; Moses, Man of the Mountain; Mules and Men; and Every Tongue Got to Confess.

Release Discriptions:
OVER MY DEAD BODY/TIME X - split 7"
This 7" should have come out quite some time ago, but due to various delays it took for ever to get released. Over My Dead Body do 3 tracks, one being a cover of No Reply's "Still Fucking Pissed," and Time X do 4 tracks. Time X are from Portugal and Over My Dead Body are from California, USA. Both bands play straight edge youth crew style hardcore. Straight Edge pride! (Phyte Records #23)
GOOD CLEAN FUN - Straight Outta Hardcore CD
Good Clean Fun are at it again with ten tracks of high energy straight edge hardcore designed to get the kids smiling and going nuts. Straight Outta Hardcore is serious, humorous, fun, and totally positive. Definitely putting the fun back into straight edge hardcore. They do a solid cover of Youth of Today's "No More" and generally just get the positive energy flowing. Positive go!! (Phyte Records #25)
SOMMERSET - Fast Cars, Slow Guitars CD
Hailing from New Zealand, Sommerset tear out thirteen tracks of fast melodic rockin' hardcore with plenty of melody and catchy vocals. In the same genera as Lifetime, or Daltonic. Poppy and upbeat. (Phyte Records #29)
CHAMPION - Come Out Swinging CD
Seven tracks of blazing melodic straight edge hardcore Champion. The sound is really well done, and they do a kick ass cover of Dag Nasty's "1 to 2" which fits perfectly in their set. Champion is full of straight edge hardcore pride, but they seem to be thinking smart. Good stuff for those that love the more melodic youth crew. (Phyte Records #43)
FIELDS OF FIRE - Keep It Alive CD
Skatepunks go! Eight new tracks of energetic So Cal youth crew from Fields of Fire. Their new tracks are better than ever and they kick it out with plenty of attitude. Politics and skatecore pride combined together to make their mark; having fun but trying to stay sharp. Keep It Alive also includes the 7 tracks from their debut 7". (Phyte Records #28)
AFFRONT - People Who Live In Glass Houses CD
Hailing from Washington, D.C. Affront put together their first full-length release. The music is hard and fast but with lots of melody and catchy elements. The songs are very melodic, but Affront never loses their fast aggressive attack. The energy level runs really high, and the singing is shouted with plenty of sing-a-long parts and even the occasional 7 Seconds style oohh and ahhh chorus parts. Catchy. (Phyte Records #24)
DALTONIC - Radio On CD
Taking parts from punk, hardcore, and good ol' American rock and roll, Daltonic put together a melodic yet powerful record with emotional singing. Straight up rock. Straight up roll. Straight up Daltonic. (Phyte Records #21)
KILL THE MESSENGER - Five On Seven 7"
As you might have guessed this 7" has five tracks from Kill The Messenger. I was pleasantly surprised by Kill The Messenger's kick ass attack. Their sound is very reminiscent of Blast! influenced Black Flag style hardcore without sounding too much like their influences, and without the metal indulgence. The songs are all quite good and anyone that likes power hardcore will dig these songs. Apparently, Kill The Messenger also had a 10" out on Indecision Records. Great stuff. (Phyte Records #19)
GOOD CLEAN FUN - On The Streets Saving The Scene... CD
Good Clean Fun's much anticipated new LP is now available on CD. On The Streets... features 11 tracks of fun and sarcastic youth crew hardcore that is influenced by Minor Threat and the Gorilla Biscuits. Good Clean Fun is all about solid hardcore, plenty of choruses, a healthy dose of melody, and having a good time; fun and energetic. (Phyte Records #20)
GOOD CLEAN FUN - On The Streets Saving The Scene... LP
Good Clean Fun's much anticipated new LP is now available. The LP comes in 4 different versions. Each version has a different cover, labels, and insert. The first 3 versions are limited to 1,000 copies and the 4th version will be the one that is reprinted. All versions have the same songs and music! Version one looks like a crust record, version two looks like an emo record, version three looks like a death metal record, and version four looks like a youth crew hardcore record. On The Streets... features 11 tracks of fun and sarcastic youth crew hardcore that is influenced by Minor Threat and the Gorilla Biscuits. Good Clean Fun is all about solid hardcore, plenty of choruses, a healthy dose of melody, and having a good time; fun and energetic. (Phyte Records #20)
COMMITTED - One Chance CD
Fourteen straight edge hardcore songs from Cleveland's Committed. The style is distinctly influenced by Youth Of Today and Judge. The recording is powerful, the songs are well written, and anyone that likes '88 style youth crew will be impressed by Committed's ode to youth crew hardcore. Positive go! (Phyte Records #17)
SOOPHIE NUN SQUAD - The Devil, The Metal, The Big Booty Beats CD
Combine the high jinks of the Big Boys, Doggy Style, and Pee Wee Herman with the whacked influences of Dungeons & Dragons and the Never Ending Story and then throw in some fast adrenaline pumpin' hardcore and the Hair soundtrack and what you end up with is an incredibly unique band called Soophie Nun Squad. Eight people coming together to have fun, dance, laugh and sing. Twisted, fun, and very, very different. (Phyte Records #18)
GOOD CLEAN FUN - picture disk 7"
Limited to 2,000 copies this picture disk features Good Clean Fun doing two tracks. The first is an alternate version of "Victory Records Sucks" from Good Clean Fun's upcoming LP, and the flip side song is a cover of "Let's Go Crazy" which was originally performed by Prince. Yeah, Prince. The picture disk image is inspired by Prince's Purple Rain LP, and well it is all in good fun, naturally. A definite release for the collectors. (Phyte #16)
GOOD CLEAN FUN - Who Shares Wins 7"
The cover color has been changed for the 4th pressing of Who Shares Wins. The new covers are purple (as they were supposed to be originally) instead of red. The same fun filled songs in a new cover. Watch for the new Good Clean Fun LP coming early in 2000 with nothing less than 4 different covers to chose from! (Phyte #11)
GOOD CLEAN FUN - Shopping For A Crew CD
Combining the three songs from the out of print Shopping With A Crew 7", the five songs from the Who Shares Wins 7", and two new songs for a total of ten fun filled tongue-in-cheek hardcore tunes. Good Clean Fun gives straight edge a sarcastic kick in the ass. In a nut shell, the Good Clean Fun discography. (Phyte #14)

Go! Go! Kokopolo: Harmonious Forest Revenge is perhaps DSiWare's finest game. Its creative and memorable bosses were a highlight and Tanukii Studios plans to outdo itself with the sequel Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D: Space Recipe for Disaster on the 3DS eShop.
Tanukii's Keith Webb has given TV and Lust the exclusive reveal of boss Kamaloon, with the following description of the lizard:
The color changing KAMALOON nests high above the SKY HIGHWAY, watching the endless stream of traffic below, as everybody goes about their daily business. If someone tries to disturb the peaceful flow, however, KAMALOON always steps in to sort them out.
Various other sites have been given the other bosses to reveal, which have been cataloged on the Tanukii Studios Twitter feed.
With eighty new stages and 10 new bosses, Space Recipe for Disaster can't come soon enough.

The Only Real Failure
I saw this picture on Funeral For My Fat and it helped me today.
It reads:
The only real failure in life is the failure to try.
I've started "trying" again. I have been "trying" for YEARS. I have been "trying" for my whole freakin' life, actually.
I wrote my first Starling Fitness entry on October 29, 2003. My ten year anniversary came and went without mention because I'm STILL trying. I'm not at a healthy weight. I'm not physically fit. Fighting entropy and my own disordered eating is still a struggle after all of these years.
And I feel like a failure.
Shouldn't I be at goal by now? I've had ten LONG years to do it! Why am I still fighting this?
