Al Capone was in prison, kept running things, so they moved him to Alcatraz.
At least they let him retire to Florida where he died from syphilis.
Doesn't Florida have no income tax? That would mean the Feds would not have a case against Capone!!
The return of the bunny ears! It's a really effective disguise.
That was actually Lucky Luciano. His crime family set fire to a New York dock at the start of WWII, Shipping was so vital to the war effort they blackmailed the US into letting him out early. Nice war effort you got there be a shame if something happened to it.
Silly and so far pointless. Hopefully it will get better. Right wingers have this tin ear concerning humor.
So your point is you aren't getting the joke, and it is someone else's fault? Or are you saying you are a right-winger?
Your right, plus his crimes were in Chicago so being released from :the rock" to FL would not matter, charge-wise.
I'm saying that the "humor" here is lacking. And it is Scott Stantis who is the right winger with that problem with humor.
After all, it can't be that the joke went over your head. Right? (Left?) (whatever)

In a recent report by New Jersey Public Radio, Professor Nelson Tebbe commented on a suit recently filed by Muslim Advocates against the NYPD. The group claims that the NYPD's surveillance program targeting Muslim Americans in the New York area violates the 1st and 14th Amendments, regarding equal protection and free exercise of religion. Professor Tebbe explained to NJPR that this argument may be difficult to prove. "The plaintiffs would have to show the purpose, the object of the police here was to discriminate against Muslims, and not simply to target people who were potentially violent or posed potential threats of violence," he said.

The Jacksonville Jaguars and Oakland Raiders will face off in a Week 2 matchup on Sunday. Both teams lost their Week 1 games, with Oakland falling to the Indianapolis Colts in the final minutes and Jacksonville getting absolutely mauled by the Kansas City Chiefs. Raiders starting quarterback Terrelle Pryor played a so-so game, while the Jaguars could only manage a safety on the Chiefs, who put up 28 points.
Oakland is favored to win this game, though the lines are varying across the board. According to OddsShark, the Raiders opened up as four-point favorites, but can be had as anywhere from four- to seven-point favorites at other books.
It's true, as far as the two teams go, the Raiders are actually more stable at this point. Pryor played, as noted, a so-so game in Week 1, but that was against a much better team in the Colts. The Jaguars, on the other hand, have to switch to Chad Henne at quarterback due to an injury to Blaine Gabbert, and again, couldn't get anything done against Kansas City, which was the worst team in the league last year.
Oakland also has home-field advantage, further pushing the line in its favor. The over/under is right around 39 points.

Mayor Chokwe Lumumba and the Congolese people
by Ann Garrison
WBAI Afrobeat Radio June 29, 2013
The news was grim, but Kambale also said the election of Chokwe Lumumba to serve as the mayor of Jackson, Mississippi, gave him hope. This is the last section of that interview.
AfrobeatRadio/Ann Garrison: On Monday, Chokwe Lumumba will be inaugurated the mayor of Jackson, Mississippi, and in the United States, this is actually epic. He took the name of Patrice Lumumba early in his life and his involvement in Black liberation struggles. Would you like to say anything about that? Do you have a shout out for Chokwe?
Kambale Musavuli: Well, just you saying Chokwe Lumumba gave me goose bumps. Been watching the race very closely, and he reminded me of the hope that Lumumba has always shared with Congolese. Lumumba didn't think of just the Congo. He looked at the whole African continent and the African world, meaning even Africans born in America, who we sometimes call African Americans in this country.
So what he said: "We are not alone. Africa, Asia, and free and liberated people from every corner of the world will always be found at the side of the Congolese." So Chokwe Lumumba, having that name, should carry the spirit. He should know, as he becomes the new mayor of Jackson, Missisippi, that he will never be alone, that there will always be people around him to make sure that he succeeds in what he is doing.
I'm very, very honored, and I'm looking forward to see what he is going to be doing as the mayor, and I know he has already won the battle.
Think about this, right? Virginia, where the CIA is located, right? They made sure that Patrice Lumumba's body cannot be found anywhere. He was brutally killed, chopped in pieces, put in acid to make sure that nobody could even remember his name or who he was or what he stood for.
So he is giving me hope. Given it's Mississippi – and if he's going to achieve that, in Lumumba's name, I'm sure that Congolese are going to regain sovereignty of their land. And I'm very, very happy he's the new mayor of Jackson, Mississippi.
AfrobeatRadio/Ann Garrison: So am I, and that's a great place to leave it. Kambale, we'll talk to you again soon.
Kambale Musavuli: Thank you so much. Until peace comes.

Consumer Law
Ex-Lawyer Opts Out of Class Action over Hybrid Mileage, Goes to Small Claims Court
Posted Jan 3, 2012 7:48 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
A former lawyer is going to small claims court today in an attempt to win damages in a suit that claims her 2006 Honda Civic Hybrid didn't deliver on promised mileage.
The suit by Heather Peters says she never did get 50 miles per gallon as promised, and now that her battery is deteriorating, she is getting closer to 30 miles per gallon, report the Associated Press and the Los Angeles Times.
Peters opted out of a class action after learning the proposed settlement would give owners a maximum of $200 and a rebate of up to $1,000. She also didn't like the proposal to give the plaintiffs' lawyers $8.5 million in fees.
Peters hopes to get an award of $10,000, the limit this year in small claims court in California. Lawyers aren't permitted to argue the cases, so no attorney fees will be awarded, Peters tells AP. Her website urges other hybrid owners to reject the settlement and go to small claims court.
If Honda loses and files an appeal, the company can be represented by lawyers in a hearing where the claim is heard de novo, according to the Declarations and Exclusions blog.

Jerry Colangelo: Robert Sarver is a good owner
Originally published: Feb 12, 2014 - 11:55 am
Jerry Colangelo helped build the Suns into the city's main professional sports team, and was the owner until 2004, when he sold to a group led by Sarver.
Colangelo stayed on with the team until 2007, but since then it has been Sarver's show, with mixed results.
However, when asked if the man who replaced him is a good owner, the "Godfather of Phoenix Sports" did not hesitate.
"I think he is, I think he is," Colangelo told Doug and Wolf on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM as part of Newsmakers Week Wednesday. "I think he's also matured as a sports entrepreneur. It's the kind of business that people from the outside looking in think is an easy transition, but it helps if you have a real background and if you don't, you have to pay your dues, you have to learn by experience, and sometimes you have to make mistakes. And you learn from those mistakes.
Depending on who you ask, the number of mistakes Sarver may have made will vary, but even he has admitted that there are things he could have done better over the last decade.
"I would say to you that Robert was handed a full deck in terms of really a good team, good management, coaching, and we had a good run for a while, if you recall," Colangelo said. "But then things started to dissipate a little bit and when you're not stable, when you have a lot of turnover in terms of management, coaching, players, it's unstable and it's tough to really get any traction.
"So I think Robert went through a lot, and I think he learned a lot. I've heard from a number of people that I trust very much that he's a different guy today than he was when he bought the team, and it's all positive, all positive. And I commend what he's done."
It should come as no surprise that Sarver could be a different owner -- a better owner -- now than he was when he first took over. No matter the job, people tend to improve as they gain more experience. They learn what works and what doesn't, and adjust their style accordingly.
As an owner, Sarver was tasked with hiring the right people to work with him in building the franchise, and it may have taken some time to learn what qualities to look for. After all, running a basketball team is nothing like running any other business, though Sarver had proven to be successful elsewhere.
And as Colangelo said, people on both a national and local level have commented on Sarver's turnaround.
"So he deserves to get credit when credit is due," he said. "When you make mistakes you take the hits, but when you're successful you should also be gracious in saying the right things about a person.
"I think he has a great group in place."

|Geneva II meeting can end Syrian conflict: Iran's Zarif
TEHRAN – In a meeting with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in Damascus on Wednesday, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said the planned conference on Syria has the capacity to put an end to the conflict in the country.
The conference, known as Geneva II, will be held on January 22.
"The Geneva II conference has the political and international capacity to solve the Syrian crisis and its successful holding can prevent the continuation of the killing of innocent people as well as (ending) extremism," Zarif noted.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Zarif reiterated Tehran's principal position on the campaign against extremism, violence, and sectarian strife in the region and reiterated Tehran's position that the Syrian crisis should be resolved through dialogue.
Zarif conveyed the warm greetings of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani to Assad and said that Tehran was ready to increase its cooperation with Damascus in economic, political, and cultural areas.
The chief Iranian diplomat also visited Amman, Jordan, on Tuesday night and held meetings with Jordanian king Abdullah II, Prime Minister Abdullah Ensour, and Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh.
On his regional tour, Zarif had also visited Lebanon and Iraq on the previous days.

A Sun City man accused of shooting and killing his wife pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder on Thursday morning.
Deputies said Howard Rudolph, 78, had been drinking heavily when he shot his 73-year-old wife, Earlene Rudolph.
He left a couple notes. One said he had to do it, that she was sick and that he hated her.
Another, for their attorney, referred to what to do about the "bodies." He also left the keys in the door, possible signs he'd been contemplating a murder-suicide.
He's expected to be in court again on Oct. 9.

In alternative ways of worshiping, we've brought you everything from pole dancing, cowboy churches, tattoo ministries and biker churches.
Now, we bring you a ministry of online dialogues.
The minister lives in Washington and goes out into public squares and invites people to ask any kind of question about God, Jesus or the Bible. Those dialogues are taped and posted online.
Four years ago, Rob Wachter said God called out to him. We had a chat via the Internet.
"I was at a church service and I was praying for God to give me direction in ministry and I felt a specific calling in the same way Evangelists did when I was a student and just start answering questions and put it on film," Wachter said.
Wachter started going out into public squares and invited people to ask their toughest questions about Christianity.
Everything is taped and posted on his website: www.wisefaith.tv, YouTube, Vimeo, Twitter and Facebook.
"We deploy all of this new technology to get tidbits of info about Jesus out as quickly as possible," he said.
He said his ministry of online dialogues is a tool to reach non-believers and also equip believers on how to defend the Christian worldview.
"A lot of people have misconceptions about who Jesus is, what he said, what he taught; they have a lot of questions surrounding the Bible, how can you trust the Bible today, whether or not God exists and if he does who is he," he said.
Some of the conversations are controversial, some get a bit heated, and some get downright crazy.
Wachter said he welcomes different backgrounds and faiths.
"Everyone from atheists and agnostics to homosexuals, cross-dressers, unbelievers, Christians, Muslims, every potential world view you can imagine, I have dialogued with," he said.
Now, he's traveling the country to conduct and tape these dialogues. He's in the process of working on a Christian TV segment and he provides teaching and training material to churches and Christian schools.

But at the same time, these are just my thoughts and opinions on the QBs. I have done a lot of research and watching videos of most of these QBs. For all we know Aaron Murray could be the next Joe Montana. Its all just fun speculation and Something to talk about. I can not remember the last time I was this excited for the season to begin, been fan of Vikes since the 70s. I know we need a QB for future. I just hope we hit it right this time. Hell for all we know Ponder could turn into a star with Norv and his offense. LOL !!!! Some QBs can run any offense and some only flourish under certain offenses. So in reality a good majority of these QBs coming out could flourish under the right system. I myself do not see these QBs as stars. But who am I. That's why I don't get paid the big bucks to pick to evaluate and draft players.
I like Manziel because of ALL the QBs in this draft, he has the intangibles that make an elite QB. There is NO guarantees here, he could be a bust, just like most of them will. But If I were going to be right about a QB, I would LOVE to be right about Manziel, because if I am, he a future HoFer. Can you say the same about any of the others?
What I mean is, if Bortles turns out to be what people hope he is, he will be a stable QB that manages our game effectively. If Manziel is the bomb, it means exciting games each time he takes the field.
The only other thing I will say is, my life will not be affected if I am wrong. As such, I will trust, ultimately, our coaches and GM and hope they make the right call. I am SOOO ready for a winner, whoever he is!!Men are moved by two levers only: fear and self interest.
~Napoleon Bonaparte on Politics
I believe we will draft the BPA other than a quarterback at number eight. Then Sneaky Ricky will trade back into the first round and Draft Derek Carr, lets say with the 24th pick from the Bengals.
what you think about passing on a qb in the first round ...
I think if they do not go QB at 8, and if Bridgewater is still available in the late 20's, Spielman will make that move. Teddy was in Minnesota a lot longer than he should have been, unless the Vikings paid for him to stay to give that appearance.
One other thing on QBs; I am no glory hound, and if I am right about Manziel, I will be happy but not obnoxious. I rarely buy into ANY rookie, the last time I did was Moss. And before you think I'm taking credit for knowing he was a stud, it was a friend I was working with who told me he was jealous we got him, and went OFF on how great Moss was. His enthusiasm sold me on Moss (he was a Cowboys fan), so you can call me a Moss bandwagoner more than a sage of great football talent.
But Manziel.... Sheesh. SOMETHING tells me that guy is going to be THE QB everyone wishes they had drafted. I don't know why I'm sold on him, but there you go...Men are moved by two levers only: fear and self interest.
~Napoleon Bonaparte on Politics
im starting to think zim was throwing up a smoke screen on manzeil..why i dont know .hell maybe not ...im torn on this kid ...hey every body and his mother hated ponder ..but we liked his athletic ability ...johny football has twice his athletic ability ...would it be exciting to watch this kid make plays ...YES ...EVEN MORE IF WE ARE WINNING ...BUILD A SOLID DEFENCE FEED AD THE BALL ...AND TURN JOHNY FOOTBALL LOOSE
We have seen this before but take a 2nd look. Water threw the least amount of screens and the most passes from 1- 10 yards ( the prime post target is 6-7-8 yards and a cut). Why would this guy be unable to.
2014's Quarterback Conundrum - Out Of The Box - Rotoworld.com
Also I see Rivers being mentioned as a Turner QB. I think that is laughable because the knock on Rivers coming out was his motion and concern about the deep ball. Guy was very accurate but his motion and arm strength was questioned. Yet.... Turn and him made out ok.
SI.com - 2004 NFL Draft - Philip Rivers
NEGATIVES: Has a terrible throwing motion that is best described as awkward. Pushes the ball or whips it from the side and falls out of his throws.
***Looks like he's throwing a heavy ball and constantly changes his point of release. Cannot drive the deep pass and not accurate down the field.*****
ANALYSIS: Rivers is the type of prospect that will draw much debate and discussion leading up to and after draft day. While many criticize his mechanics and throwing fundamentals,
***you can not overlook his accuracy or ability to lead a team.****
May not be a quarterback for everyone and can only fit certain schemes, but a solid first-round selection that could quickly break into a starting lineup at the next level.
When you script your own Pro Day & cater it to show off your skillset, then practice that script over & over, then blow your Pro Day, it should throw up a lot of red flags. If you can't master your own Pro Day, how are you going to succeed against defenses?

A man who hit and knocked down a utility pole on Route 24 in Flanders was charged with driving while intoxicated, police said.
According to Southampton Town Police, Calverton resident Daniel R Halstead, 22, was involved in a motor vehicle accident, during which he struck a utility pole on New York State Route 24 near Glider Ave in Flanders.
Police said the collision caused wires to fall, forcing Route 24 to be closed overnight between Evergreen Road and Wood Road Trail, until Long Island Power Authority representatives could respond.
The road remained closed Thursday morning.
Police said Halstead was found to be intoxicated by responding officers and was placed under arrest. He was uninjured in the crash and was charged with misdemeanor driving while intoxicated. He was held overnight for morning arraignment.

Lois 'I have done nothing wrong' Lerner demands immunity from prosecution in return for testimony
**Written by Doug Powers
Put another way, Lois Lerner is demanding guaranteed legal protection from the people whose taxes fund paychecks she continues to receive:
Embattled IRS official Lois Lerner will not testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee unless she's given immunity from prosecution, her lawyer told POLITICO Tuesday.
"They can obtain her testimony tomorrow by doing it the easy way … immunity," William W. Taylor III said in a phone interview. "That's the way to resolve all of this."
The comments reflect the hard-line approach Lerner, the former head of the IRS division that scrutinized conservative groups, and her legal team are taking in defending her role in the agency's scandal.
Ed Morrissey adds this:
That makes it sound as though Lerner's giving a strong hint to the committee that they should be negotiating with her for this testimony. No prosecutor would make an immunity offer without first getting a proffer on what the witness has to disclose. Few witnesses or their attorneys would demand immunity without having something to tell, either, and without that "something" pointing at bigger fish to fry than themselves.
That's is an awful lot of wrangling for a public official who claimed to have broken no laws:

Hydrostatic Oil Filter
What brand of oil filter should I use on the hydrostatic transmission in my Cadet 1250. The Cub Cadet filters seem a little pricey. Are they any better than say a Fram or other brand?
Re: Hydrostatic Oil Filter
I just purchased a hydraulic oil filter for the hydrostat on a 125 Cub Cadet from my local auto parts store. Hastings brand. Next day delivery since it is not a stocked item.
Any way. Ask at your favorite auto parts store. The will be able to cross reference the filter.
Quality. More than likely the Cub Cadet filter is identical to one of the other name brand filters. Only difference - the printing on the side of the filter, the box and the price.
Re: Hydrostatic Oil Filter
My Cub Cadet dealer sells both Cub Cadet and Fleet-Gard (sp), and The Fleet-Gard is less expensive. If you use another brand, make sure it is a filter for a hydraulic/hydrostatic system and not an oil filter that fits. They are different internally, and your hydrostatic system will not work properly with an oil filter.
Re: Hydrostatic Oil Filter
I think the filter that is currently on the tractor is a Fram PH16 (I think). I'm not sure that is the correct filter for this.
Re: Hydrostatic Oil Filter
The fram should work fine. I had a fram on my hydr. before I changed it to whatever brand it is now. never had an issue with it.
Brute force and Ignorance.

Re: Hydrostatic Oil Filter
The last time I bought filters at the Rossville IH dealer they sold me a Fleetguard, they didn't stock the Cub Cadet filters.
Freedom is for those that claim it.

An 81-year-old woman being terrorized by a bear might sleep a little easier now.
Dawsonville native Stella Millsapps said she's been terrified of a bear after seeing it more than four times in the past month. She said in the most recent cases, it's come all the way up to her porch.
"I can't even get out at night. I'm afraid to. I'm afraid to even open the doors," said Stella Millsapps.
Millsapps' daughter-in-law, Melissa Millsapps, said it's with good reason because at times the door was the only thing separating her from the bear.
"We're scared that if it's brave enough to come up that close to the house then it's going to do something more," said Melissa Millsapps.
Stella Millsapps contacted the Georgia Department of Natural Resources to have the bear removed, but they refused to help, saying she had bird seed everywhere and trash sitting out.
Millsapps said she cleaned up the trash the best she could and started bringing all the bird food inside every night, but the bear still stopped by.
So we got involved and called DNR ourselves, and that's when things changed.
"The called and said they've gotten so much publicity they're going to go ahead and do it. They're going to try to catch it and get rid of it," said Stella Millsapps.
"If you hadn't called them and done what you done, none of this would have happened. That shows what the news can do," said Stella Millsapps.
It came as a huge relief to a woman who just wants to get her life back to normal.
"I feel like dancing. That's what I feel like. A burden is lifted off my shoulders. I don't have to be afraid," said Stella Millsapps.

At the end of the game with Duke tonight, when it became apparent that we would lose, I hardly felt dissapointment.
For the past couple of hours, I had enjoyed the best 40 minutes of basketball that Wake had played in years. I had felt such a rush at seeing the crowd on their feet, absolutely going crazy for the underdogs. I had jumped, cheered, and fist-pumped from the comfort of my own living room as Wake would tie the game and take the lead a couple of times down the stretch of the game. And when it all was over... I felt good. Really good.
When the Demon Deacons upset number 19 NC State, it was a beautiful thing. It was by far the biggest win of the Bzdelik era, and it felt nice to see fans and players alike have something to get so excited about. However, I couldn't erase from my mind that NC State should have beaten us. I don't mean that in the sense that they should have beaten us because they were the better team, but because they were given multiple solid opportunities to, including two missed free throws and a wide open 3 pointer for Scott Wood at the end of the game. Not to mention the fact that we didn't put up a field goal in the last 4 minutes of the game. The win was great, but winning over such an inconsistent NC State team the way that we did not prove that Wake was a force to worry about on their home court.
I hope nobody minds me putting aside the Georgia Tech game. It was awful, and I felt sick for the rest of the day.
Following a 20 point loss on the road against Georgia Tech, the Deacs had to come home and face number 5 Duke. For some reason I had a good feeling... and that feeling lasted through the entire game. There was quite the turn out, and the tye-dye nation brought back some really great memories with their loud, hostile cheering. We really had a homecourt in this game, and I loved it. It felt so great to see everyone on their feet as the Deacs tried to pull off one of the biggest upsets in their history. ( I hope that I am free to say that, considering we were playing a top 5 team while being ranked in the 100's). Every player played with such a passion in this game, it was hard not to ride on the emotions. Thomas had another great game, and had some help from Tyler Cavanaugh who nailed a 3 pointer in the first half, and had a nice drive in the second half that ended up in a 3 point play. Even Rountree, who got some nice playing time tonight, got in on it with a nice baseline drive that ended in a dunk. Mckie was unfortunately quiet in the second half, but CJ Harris came up with some big plays. Adala Moto wasn't a huge scorer, but found some important points on the free throw line. Madison Jones was our point guard for the majority of the game, and he did a nice job of keeping things under control. CMM seemed to be having trouble making good decisions with the ball, and wasn't a huge factor in the game. I was a bit dissapointed to see that Fischer was a non factor tonight, although that seems to be the norm (unless he is contributing negatively), which I really hate for him. I know he works hard for the team, and I always want to see him find success. However, we did take a nice 3 (I think it may have been the only shot he took), which barely missed, but he was obviously fouled.
The Deacs played really great perimeter defense, limiting the Blue Devils big time from beyond the arc. They did allow a massive game by Mason Plumlee (I'm not sure on his exact number, but it was around a 30 point game), but that seemed to be the trade-off that the coaching staff decided to take to keep Duke's sharpshooters out of the game as much as they could. I thought that Cavanaugh did a nice job of fighting Plumlee in the post when Thomas was not in the game, and was proud of the effort he put up against the bigger, stronger Blue Devil.
Wake forest had a couple of late ties and leads in this game. It is arguable that Wake may have been able to come out with a win had Harris and Thomas not had to sit for good periods of time late in the game due to foul trouble. I thought that there were some pretty poor calls in this one, and I felt especially angry after the 4th foul on Harris. It seemed clearly to be a blocking foul on Curry.
I think it means a lot for this team to have gone 40 minutes without any scoring droughts, and to actually stay very much in the game for the entirety. There was never a moment where the game slipped away from us, we were always fighting. Fighting a top 5 team. I truly believe that in a couple years (if not next year), Wake Forest will be in the top 25. There is too much talent and team-spirit to not have great results.
The losing part aside, this was the strongest I have felt about our ball team in a long time. Obviously we need road wins against Maryland and North Carolina now to stay competitive in the ACC standings, but the fact that the Joel is becoming a tough place to play again is fantastic. I love the effort that these boys put out every night, and it must feel great to have gotten the crowd back in the gym. I hope that the Deacs find some momentum from this game, don't give up, and take it to Maryland on the road. Home court advantage aside, I think that we can beat the Terps. Doing so would be enormous, as (assuming we lose the North Carolina), we would still be 4-6 in the conference, with a chance at moving to 5-6 with a win over FSU at home. Obviously not a big deal in the big picture of the ACC, but that would suggest a competitiveness that Wake has not seen in a long time.
Great effort tonight, Go Deacs!

Sooners Add A Very Late Commitment To `09 Class
NORMAN -- Just two weeks before the start of practice, Oklahoma has added a quarterback. Well, Lane Johnson was a quarterback. He was all-district at Texas Class 2A Groveton before quarterbacking at Kilgore College last fall. Now that Johnson has reportedly accepted OU's scholarship offer, the 6-6 250-pounder will be playing tight end.

Orangebloods.com is reporting University of Texas football coach Mack Brown is getting ready to step down.
Brown has been under intense scrutiny throughout the 2013 season after a 1-2 start. Brown and the Longhorns rebounded and reeled off six consecutive wins, but Texas lost two of its final three games.
But Brown denies he's ready to leave. Shortly after the Orangebloods.com story was posted, Brown told recruiting service 247 he's currently in Florida on a recruiting trip and "If I had decided to step down I sure wouldn't be killing myself down here."
Texas athletic director Steve Patterson issued a statement Tuesday evening denying the Orangebloods.com report.
"We continue to discuss the future of Texas Football. Mack Brown has not resigned... no decisions have been made," Patterson said.
Texas finished the season 8-4 and will face Oregon in the Alamo Bowl.
The Orangebloods.com report said Brown is expected to coach his final game at the Alamo Bowl before stepping down.
Brown won 10 bowl games, three Big XII titles and the 2005 National Championship in 16 seasons with the Longhorns.
Earlier this year the Associated Press reported a University of Texas regent had reached out to the agent of Nick Saban after the 2013 National Championship game and discussed the UT job with him.
Last week the school's president, Bill Powers, told an Austin newspaper that Texas is not interested in Saban.
A practical joker on Tuesday afternoon reportedly had Saban paged over the intercom at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.

This morning, I got to do one of my favorite things in the world. I have to warn you that it is very petty so don't think too badly of me. Let me set the stage: I drive to work through Baltimore. This used to be a lot more fun when I drove home through B-more, too. I leave the house at a completely uncivilized time and it is too dark to see all of the Steelers paraphernalia on my car. Driving home in daylight, I've had people flip me off for reasons other than my driving and a couple people have actually tried to force me off the road. So, yeah, I just love Balti-morons.
All this just makes my evil little pleasure all the more fun. I love to listen to Baltimore sports talk radio the day after the Ravens lose. I love the rationalization. If this had just happened; if that pass had not dropped; whatever. I am sure that fans of other teams can be whiny, too. There is even a very small possibility that one or two Steelers fans may whine about a loss. Nah! Such a world can't exist!
This morning, it was the refs fault that Matty Ice was able to drive the length of the field in less than a minute and find Roddy White in the end zone. Crappy calls allowed the Falcons to sustain the drive cause the refs ABSOLUTELY hate the Ravens. (Hmmm...questionable calls to sustain a drive, allowing marginal QB to find, say, TJ Houshmazilly in the end zone? Nope, couldn't be.) And, fortunately, the Ravens are on the side of the angels, as they have never benefitted from bad calls. Beating the Titans in the playoffs two years ago because the refs forgot to call that delay of game was simply an oversight, not a bad call. This went on for thirty minutes or so, till I got out of radio range, but cheered me up for the whole day.
I contend that, to be a champion, you have to beat the other team AND the refs. Those who remember the 2005 playoff game against the Colts know exactly what I am talking about. I was disgusted with how many blatant calls went against the Black and Gold. Sure, Peyton is a great quarterback who kept them in the game but he had significant help. I was convinced the script was already set and the Steelers were just upsetting the apple cart. We proved it again last week against the Bungles. Two horrendous calls in a row allowed Palmer to stay on the field and come within one reception of the upset. Casey Hampton's bogus Roughing the Passer call and the horrible Pass Interference call on Ike were particularly egregious. (Check it out! I used egregious, the hot new word this season, in a sentence! Yay, me!) The NFL came back with a mea culpa today.
So, what is the title about, you ask? Is the NFL really becoming a league for sissies? Are we getting ready to chug on over to Mamby-Pamby Land ? (Great GEICO commercial, by the way!) Well, the fact that Bart Scott still has a job leads me to think it is true. I don't pay attention to that puss bag anymore. Is he still whining about the Hines Ward hit from 83 years ago? Get over it, you girl.
Now we could talk about the completely bogus $75K fine to James Harrison or we could focus on the Troy Polamalu comments but that would be taking the easy way out. The fact that the Commish does not fine Troy for so blatantly criticizing the league is testimony in itself. I would prefer to focus on the comment of Ravens stud (?) Haloti Ngata. When explaining why his team got their butts handed to them in Atlanta, Ngata said, ""I don't know if it was that we just played Sunday, but I was tired." Are you serious? You get paid 14 gajillion dollars to play and you're too tired to do your job? Did you happen to notice that the team who made you look so bad ALSO PLAYED ON SUNDAY?!?!?!? Oh, my sweet Aunt Mary! What's next? No Gatorade showers cause it stings the eyes? Maybe we should have cupcake parties on the sidelines after a win. I'll bring the orange slices to pass out at half time.

It's time for the congregation to put its blinders on.
Nevermind the crowd. Don't worry about who they have under center. Pay no attention to what other teams did. Instead, focus on the task at hand; playing a bipolar team that lacks a true offensive identity.
It's certainly a winnable game, but The Church of the Latter Day Rooneys knows everyone remembers 2009. The phrase "Letdown Game" permeates the entire league. No one is immune.
- The real season for championship teams starts in Week 12. Six games against teams either playing for that ever-important home playoff game, or playing for contract extensions. It's a dangerous combination, particularly when no team is even remotely healthy; only relatively so.
- Kansas City can beat teams over .500 by 28 points, or they can lose to wannabes by 41. You have no idea which Kansas City team will show up tonight.
- Define Foundational Player: A guy who is five catches away from breaking a team record for his position, will likely not get that in this game because his highest and best use this week will be blocking instead of receiving, and when informed of his proximity to the record, wasn't even aware of it. That's Heath Miller.
- Tamba Hali is a game-changer, plain and simple. The focus must be on stopping him.
Rocky II Training (HD) (via elitesniper16)
- May this be the last game before the return of Brother LaMarr, and no one replaces him next week.
- May Brother Ben not sink to his competition, and have confidence that his running game can win this with his help.
- May Brother Legursky replace penalties and inconsistency oft seen at the left guard position this year with the quickness that has taken him from undrafted training camp pylon to starter.
- May The Church, its members and certainly, the Steelers, remember this has nothing to do with the Baltimore Ravens. Tough game lay in waiting, we must take care of business.

Written by Agnė Kyguolytė
You wouldn't believe it, but it is possible to live in London without money. Unless you have psychological difficulties to eat food that was thrown away or wear second hand clothes. Or even spend big part of your daily life on the floor. It becomes so natural for squatters, that after it seems inhumane to sit on the chair. Squat activists are like the good parasites of society– they are using the system's gaps by living in unused houses, eating wasted food and using other things that working people don't need. Squatting in London is flourishing.
Squatters are observers. They are not part of the game that habitants of the city play. Rules are for everyone, just not for squatters. In one house you can see many different people, varying from ex-homeless to capitalists, who've had enough. Different ages, races, mindsets and social classes. Everyone lives together as one family. It exposes you to the whole society spectrum. The daily life of those "outsiders" is very different from ordinary city residents as well. The rhythm that they live by is much slower. Rituals, habits, philosophy even appearance is extraordinary. What connects them all is the feeling of dissatisfaction with what happens around. The power that money has on people, constant need for more, constraining laws and repressive institutions. All this shuts out human creativity, the expression of individuality and uniqueness, takes away the right to live the life authentically. And it's not right. Even though the views on squats role in this "revolution" is different, but revolutionary ideas bonds everyone.
Living in a squat gives you deeper insight into human behavior. People are forced here to show who there really are. You can see clearly all the social games that people play in the streets. Squats make you to get out of your comfort zone, unmask, to widen you social boundaries. You have to understand and accept each other, seek for compromises. If you haven't learnt it in your family– that's a great place for re-socialization.
The popular belief that 'squatters rights' exist comes from a law which makes it illegal to threaten or use violence to enter a property where someone is present and opposes the entry. This was introduced to stop some unscrupulous landlords using violence to evict their tenants, but has also been quoted by squatters.
Squatters shine in climbing capabilities. Walls does not exist for them. Once you're in a building, you put the Legal Warning (look at the photo below) on the front door. After that the house is officially occupied, and you just wait for police to come. Police can do little about that, as the people are already inside, so they leave. Now squatters are the owners of the building. At least for some time, until the real owner proves it wrong at the court. There is anonymity in the court, squatters usually (not always though) loose the case, and from that time starts the waiting period till the eviction day. Sometimes there is resistance to eviction, but usually squatters leave quietly.
Squat Office
Squat Office
Organizing squatters is not an easy job. They tend not to listen for directions and they are quite sensitive to any kind of pressure. So to organize something in squat community could be hard sometimes. Unless you live in squat that is orientated to organizational activities. It's called Social Centers or Political Squats. One of these examples could be Eileen House that lasted for 6 weeks in the beginning of this year and was occupied by S.O.L (Self organized London) (the link below). This collective of different groups of people was protesting against "ripping-off housing and social cleansing under the guise of regeneration" in the region of Elephant and Castle. So every week there was some events organised — People's Kitchen, movies, discussions, clothes swap, music and art performances that brought neighborhood squatters together.
I stayed in political squat that included people from Occupy London movement. These activists from 2011 October to 2012 Summer were camping in central London (St Paul's, Finsbury Square). In form of peaceful protests, occupiers tried to expose their dissatisfaction with lobbyist power structures of capitalism like banks and corporations. The protesters were finally removed from public places. After that, the group of 70 people occupied a huge building in Holborn region that was later named Hobo Hilton (pic below). So from then on these activists have been populated abandoned buildings in central London.
There are quite a few anarchistic people that believe in free society and are working on it. Bitcoin activists are one of them. Bitcoin is the first decentralized digital currency. It is available for everyone and the government is incapable to interrupt the spread of this alternative economy. People are empowered to use their money as they want for what they want. The currency is the only way of survival for projects like Wikileaks or MEGA. Programmers are working on development of Bitcoin, spreading their word out and trying to explain the importance and relevance of this technology.
Roger str. eviction
Waiting for eviction
People say that there could be the end of squatting in London soon. Squatting in a residential buildings became illegal in September 2012, and government is currently working on forbidding it in other types of buildings. Even if squatting is illegal, hopefully they will never be able to chain the rebellious souls of squatters! Those birds give us hope that life can be different, the hope that most of people have already lost. Or, sadly, never had it in the first place.

There are three common orientations for setting prices: cost-based, competition-based, or value-based. Academics have long extolled the virtues of value-based pricing, but practitioners continue to focus primarily on cost or competition based practices. There is a major disconnect here. Industrial pricing is a 'problem of practice' desperate for the help of a practioner-scholar.
Enter Stephan Liozu (DM 2012). Through his work with the Weatherhead DM program, Stephan is investigating why this disconnect between research and practice exists and what it means, and he's starting to get some answers. Liouzu indicates that the adoption of value-based pricing is not as straightforward in practice as one might think. A shift to value-based pricing is often challenging for organizations to implement, in part due to the limits of human interpretation. Value-related issues are "difficult to define, conceptualize and measure" and the adoption of value-based pricing requires more than just a simple decision on the part of a manger, but often "requires an organizational transformation."
Stephan was a keynote speaker for the Professional Pricing Society's Annual Pricing Conference in Chicago on May 7, 2010. His one-hour presentation "Pricing Orientation in Business Markets: Gap between Theory and Practice" focused on the problem of practice in the area of the adoption of value-based pricing in small and medium industrial firms. This work was based on his first-year work in the DM program.
According to Stephan, "I came in the program with some basic idea of what my research interest was. The first year of the program was a challenging and rich journey... The DM program is intellectually powerful and enriching from the get go. A year into the program, I realize how much I have accomplished with the support from great advisors and faculty. Presenting my first paper in Chicago in May 2010 as a practitioner scholar confirmed the novelty and relevance of my research project. This program has awakened my interest in academic research that is grounded in practice and interdisciplinary in nature."
Stephan is President & CEO of Ardex / W.W. Henry Company, a manufacturer of high performance building products. Stephan has masters degrees from Institut d'Administration des Entreprises and Cleveland State University, and has also completed Harvard Business School's General Management Training Program. He is a visiting professor with the Unversite Toulouse, where he teaches international business-to-business pricing strategies.

Opponents of the change from seven districts fear it will now lead to voter confusion, longer voting lines, insufficient parking at polling places and possibly a 17-4 majority.
The most immediate, tangible change is that for election events, there will be four polling places with two check-in lines instead of one per site. There will be a super district with six Town Council representatives, and three smaller ones with five representatives each.
The change's effect will be seen this year with primaries and the presidential election in November.
A new plan was needed to make Trumbull compliant with the "one man, one vote" law and to line up with the state legislature's redrawn district map.
But the two democrats on the Redistricting Committee (which also included three republicans) had proposed a seven-district plan that moved fewer voters and also met the law.
The four-district plan came from the three GOP members and it was recommended 3-2 along party lines.
"Power Grab"
Republican Registrar Bill Holden, who also chaired the latest Redisricting Committee and the one in 1984, laid out numerous reasons for approval, such as cost savings and fewer polling places. A four-district model was used when Trumbull was run under the Representative Town Meeting model. It was changed to seven 28 years ago, he said.
The Town Council's 12-8 approval (most republicans in favor) came almost along party lines.
It followed a two-hour public hearing in Town Hall in which speaker after speaker accused GOP members of the council of miniminizing minority representation and of a "power grab."
Other concerns were:
- More candidates to meet and choose from during municipal elections between Board of Education and Council candidates -- as many as 10;
- In the case of a supermajority, the minority party members will have to attend more Council committee meetings;
- Voters will get discouraged in case of a supermajority because they won't feel represented;
- The council could lose its intimate feel with the voters with larger districts;
- It could become harder to attract candidates to run for Town Council under a supermajority.
The council democrats moved to return the four-district plan to the Redistricting Committee and to consider the seven-district plan, both of which were rejected mainly along party lines.
In the final vote, Republican Councilman David Pia broke with his GOP colleagues. "I really wanted to support the four-district plan," he said, adding that he saw "nothing ... that sold me."
He noted that 20,000 Trumbull residents would likely vote in the presidential election, based on numbers from the previous presidential election. He was also concerned about a possible 17-4 supermajority and long voting lines.
Finally, he defended his republican status, citing many times he has sided with Council democrats.
"I have solid republican fiscally conservative values," he said, later adding, "I don't want to see anybody 4 to 17."
Both sides also accused each other gerrymandering.
There is a minority report, and some of the plans have been posted online.
Comments and Debate
After Holden's opening remarks, Councilwoman Vicki Tesoro, who served on the Redistricting Committee, said the seven-district proposal is "less likely to be subject to a referendum or a legal challenge" and "preserves much more thoroughly the current districts."
"There is no outcry from our citizens for a major restructuring," she said.
The hearing began at 10 p.m. The League of Women Voters opened with a statement:
"The plan before you calls for a reduction in voting districts from seven to four, which will effectively double the number of voters in at least one district, dislocate 18,000 voters and nearly double the size of each Council District ... If this plan passes we urge the town to hire officers to help with parking, additional checkers to try to move voters into each polling place faster, and to purchase and install additional privacy booths in order to mitigate the impact of increased numbers at each poll," it stated.
The LWV urged additional funding to "handle all of the additional calls that are certain to be generated from voters. We believe the current Registrar's office staff would not be able to handle the increased calls and handle their usualy election-day duties."
A double-sided ballot will also complicate matters, the league stated.
Jon Greene said eight to 10 candidates would difficult to process in municipal election years.
"Today I have to learn four people. We're now going to get eight to 10 people," he said. "If you actually believe in an educated electorate, I believe you should consider voting this down."
According to Scott Wich, "I don't need five or six representatives representing me. Sometimes more is not better. In this case, more can actually be less to a voter."
"This resolution will define this council's relationship with the people that you represent," he added.
Cindy Katske asked why republicans did not question the fou-district model at a Council committee meeting.
"Please talk about these plans before you vote," she said.
Mark Altieri, a former Town Councilman, said no one benefits from a supermajority.
Cindy Penkoff, a republican alternate on the Board of Finance, argued, "I believe this entire Council represents me," rather than its individual members.
"The four-district model is not new to Trumbull. I trust my Town Council to do what is appropriate for Trumbull," she said.
Town Councilman Gregg Basbagill, a Trumbull High School Social Studies Teacher and civics advisor, said he couldn't look at his students "with a straight face" if the council approved the plan.
Republican Tony Scinto, who served on the Redistricting Committee, said the plan allows him to vote for more people. He added that he was "attacked" over his views on redistricting.
Just before the vote, Tesoro argued that the minority's plans were not considered in the committee's deliberations. "We came in with two plans to open the conversation, a conversation that never happened," she said.
Councilwoman Martha Mark, a democrat, concluded, "I can't imagine what it's like to be one of four [in the minority]. One day it will be the republicans."
John DelVecchio Jr., a demcratic councilman, added that, "I thought we did our best work" with a larger minority.

In a shocking finding, more than half of GOP primary voters believe President Barack Obama was not born in the United States, according to a new poll.
Fifty-one percent of 400 Republican primary voters surveyed nationwide by Public Policy Polling said they ascribe to the controversial birther conspiracy theory — despite the fact that the state of Hawaii has posted Obama's certificate of live birth.
Only 28 percent said they think the president was born in the United States — a constitutional requirement to be president. Twenty-one percent said they were "not sure."
Among those who do not believe Obama was born in the United States, Mike Huckabee is their first choice for president, followed by Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich and then Mitt Romney.
Those who do think the president is a citizen favor Romney over the rest of the field. Huckabee, Palin and Ron Paul trail Romney among believers in Obama's birth in Hawaii.
A CNN/Opinion Research poll in August showed that a quarter of Americans have doubts about Obama's citizenship, with 11 percent saying the president was definitely not born in the United States.

BOSTON (AP) — U.S. Sen. Edward Markey is planning to hold a ceremonial swearing-in ceremony at Boston's historic Faneuil Hall.
Markey was actually sworn in last month by Vice President Joe Biden during a brief ceremony in the Senate chamber in Washington.
Thursday's event is a chance for more of the Democrat's supporters and members of the public to mark the start of his tenure in the Senate.
Markey defeated Republican Gabriel Gomez in a June special election to fill the seat left vacant by John Kerry's resignation from the Senate to become secretary of state.
Markey has spent the past few days touring the state in the run up to Thursday's evening event.
Markey is expected to address the crowd in what will be his first major speech in Massachusetts since election night.

An oil pipeline owned by Tesoro spewed over 20-thousand barrels of crude oil about 8 miles north of Tioga in late September, and the massive clean-up effort continues today.
The spill was discovered on September 27th -- two days earlier than first reported -- by a farmer harvesting wheat.
(Steven Jensen - Landowner) "Really don't really know much...just that it is awful big."
Steven Jensen discovered the problem about two weeks ago.
At the time of discovery, only about 750 barrels of leaked oil had come to the surface, and that was the initial estimate of the amount of crude that had spilled.
However after more inspection, it was discovered the spill was far more extensive -- about 20-thousand-600 barrels.
An area the size of about seven football fields is affected -- much of it underground.
A Minnesota company is working to clean-up the mess, and our camera was only allowed about a half mile away.
Jensen feels that Tesoro has acted professionally during the incident...but warns that better safety guidelines need to be set.
(Steven Jensen - Landowner) "It is just a fact of life around here anymore people...any other companies are going to learn from this that new monitoring devices and equipment, more visible checks on existing lines -- it is all going to have to be done to make this work for the future."
What about the present?
Jensen says he has been told it will take at least a few months to wrap up the clean-up efforts.
Through yesterday less than 10 percent of the crude had been captured.
And going forward, the land won't be farmable for at least two to three years.
The good news?
According to the state Health Department, the water supply hasn't been affected.
(Steven Jensen - Landowner) "We have found that there is a layer of clay, subsurface that is going to help this out a lot. The water is going to be protected."
Jensen says the Tesoro line that spilled the oil was installed in 1993.
He hasn't heard from the company about any compensation for the loss of crops now, or in future years when the land won't be suitable for growing.

BUT, the same ole fucking movie over and over again each week gets old fast.
2. STOP the "WHOO_HOO_HOOING during Tiger Rag--Please!!
3. Get rid of the purple! White on white on the road and orange on white at home and in some "special" games, solid orange! We have lost so many times during the last 10 years in solid orange it doesnt even matter anymore...Hell, take the names off the jerseys and wear white socks and black cleats if thats what it takes for our TIGERS to develop some chemistry.
4. GET SWAGGER somehow, someway and play with the swagger every week...How many bad performances do you see Alabama, TCU, Oregon putting on?

Such assets mentioned below need to seriously be considered, especially when the majority of those listed have a love and passion for Clemson.
Dwight Clark
Levon Kirkland
Danny Ford
Jeff Davis
I know one thing for sure....that bull shit MOVIE and roller-coaster ride today at Boston College would not have had the same ending if any combination of the people above were involved in the decision making process with our football team....I bet Levon Kirkland for example, wouldnt put up with this embarrassing shit! Right now, it is absolutely embarrassing to be a Clemson Tiger....I love em...a whole lot at that and it hurts at the end of the day...There arent many things in life I want more than for the Tigers to win win win and win freaking big...So loving something or someone so passionately while times are BAD is actually pretty dad-gum hard..GO TIGERS FOREVER & ALWAYS NO MATTER WHAT.

And so they start. The boring graduation addresses. You can't escape them. Even here on California Golden Blogs.
But I want to do something simple for you. I want to thank you. All of you seniors who have included me in your life at Cal. I have had a blast with you. It's been so much fun.
Courtesy Ken Montgomery Private Archives
This is what makes this time we're living in so amazing. Because of technology and particularly social media, if we want, we're able to be friends with people regardless of age, race, sex, station in life, etc... that just wasn't possible when I was your age, or if it was it was a lot more difficult. It's pretty phenomenal so a guy like me gets to be part of the below photo.
Yep, right there in the Bench... no, not the expensive court-side seats in front of the Bench, but there in the middle.. exalting with students is a guy who last saw Cal as a student in 1993. But you know what, it all works because while I may be twice your age (and then some), I have half your maturity level!
Courtesy Ken Montgomery Private Archives
So here's my guide to not getting old. Don't get old. Hang around young people or at least people who are young at heart. Trust me, as people get older they forget what's fun. Don't make that mistake. Let me give you a quick Cal example of that. Last year Sandy Barbour and I were at Hellman. We wanted to catch part of the women's water polo game so we cut through Evans and then we went in to Haas (it's good being with the AD for access to these short cuts!). As we were about to go up the stairs in Haas, Sandy and I looked at each other and without saying a word we SPRINTED UP THE STAIRS in a race. Doesn't matter who won but as we got to the top we cracked up. It's a small thing, but that's what I'm talking about.
This brings me to my main point (and I'll keep this short). I recently went out with some of you and stayed out later than most people my age would - on a Sunday night no less! The next day, the dreaded Monday, I got up in time for my 6:30 AM conference call and just sort of powered through the day and felt fine... and it reminded me that we're supposed to live and not be a slave to routine. I think in general I'm pretty good about that but we need to be reminded sometimes. When our time comes to its end, and it does for all of us, not one of us is going to regret not working more, but you'll definitely regret not living and experiencing life more. I struggled with whether or not I should go out that Sunday night, because, well hell I'm a responsible adult... but i was struggling with the wrong question... And because I went out I'm better for it.
via Ken Montgomery (and no worse for the wear)
One of my favorite movies is Six Degrees of Separation. It's the story about how a young conman comes into some people's life and charms them to the point where they really don't know what to believe. At the end of the movie, at a high society lunch / cocktail party, Stockard Channing's character Ouisa is reflecting on what happened to her and her husband with Paul's (played by Will Smith) entrance into their lives. She has an epiphany and explains it:
But it was
an experience. I will not turn him into an
anecdote. How do we fit what happened to us
into life without turning it into an anecdote
with no teeth and a punch line we'll mouth over
and over for years to come. "Tell the story
about the imposter who came into our lives---"
"That reminds me of the time this boy--". And
we become these human juke boxes spilling out
these anecdotes. But it was an experience. How
do we keep the experience?
And there you have it. To me that's the goal of life.
First having the experience. That's key because so many people don't. They just sort of drift through life going along to get along.
But then, more than that, keeping that experience and keeping it true. Not letting it just become some retread story that you use to just impress people, but something that actually shapes and informs who we are. That's your goal. You folks have been part of my experience and I think it's had its own impact on me. I hope it's had a little on you.
So as I get too deep and sentimental as I'm prone to do as I get older, I'm just thinking about you awesome people, graduating and moving on... You'll get lots of different advice. But when someone tells you you have to do something in such a way or act in a certain way or prioritize in a certain way, or conform... all in order to achieve a goal that people say you should be achieving... When they tell you that, and I'm speaking from experience, as someone who's lived life, who has experienced the highs and the lows but through it all is who he is and where he wants to be, smile and feel sorry for them because they really don't get it.
The Greeks had a word for this, Areté. It's about reaching YOUR highest potential, not what others think it should be.
Go do that.
And Fiat Lux!
Oh, and GO BEARS!
