Jerry Glick reporting from ringside: During the first half of the last century New York was crowded with venues for club shows. Almost every month fans had a bunch of opportunities to see some of the most entertaining fights in some of the best places to watch boxing; St. Nick's, Sunnyside Gardens, and the Eastern Parkway Arena, to name a few. Those places are long gone but small club fights are still with us. They need to be. Boxing needs them. They are the backbone of the sport, the minor leagues. Almost all of the great ones started there.
Promoters today have to make do with existing venues that include theaters such as the Paramount in Huntington, and The Paradise Theater in the Bronx; sports centers like the Aviator in Brooklyn, plus catering halls like Russo's on the Bay, and The Cordon Bleu in Woodhaven, Queens. That brings us to New Legends, Old World, and now add to that a third promoter, W.O.N. Promotions who together put on a show that allows fans and young fighters to meet under the best of circumstances.
On Friday, June 8th, they supplied enough thrills to keep fans asking for more long after the Cordon bleu show was over. This is the latest installment in a series of fights cards where the promotional teams involved are interested in making everyone happy. Matchmaker Felipe Gomez put together a show that he could be proud. Drawing from local talent (all but two of the participants on the show were from New York State), and using them in a creative way to make seven fights that showcased some of the better young battlers available.
In the main event Jonathan Cuba, from New York, NY, defended his NYS Lightweight belt that he won last September against Edward Valdez, 134 pounds, from Corona, NY. Cuba, 6-4-1 (4 KOs), entered the ring in a festive mood. Smiling and waving to the crowd. After dropping a one sided unanimous decision and his belt, he actually left the ring the way he entered it, smiling and dancing to the music playing from the loud speakers.
Cuba's flawed defense was the deciding factor here. Valdez found an easy target to land his right hand shots, none of which appeared to hurt Cuba, but Valdez was piling up the points. In many of the rounds Valdez would lay back and block Cuba's punches then about half way through he would punch holes in Cuba's defense with left/right combinations and sometimes he would throw leads right that often connected with the back of Cuba's head, mostly because Cuba would duck under the punches exposing that part of his head.
In the third Valdez caught his opponent on the ropes and fired off a two handed volley of punches; impressive but Cuba, 133 pounds, managed to block most of them. He slipped away but ran into a solid right to the head. He also tried unsuccessfully to box at long range in the next frame and took some hard combinations to the head in the fifth round.
By round six the pattern was set and Cuba's left eye bled in the seventh from a cut and swelling under it.
Valdez, 9-8-2 (6 KOs), did not come to lose. He could not miss with his right and was able to land combinations that convinced the judges to give him the eight round unanimous decision by scores of 78-74, 80-72, and 79-73. David Fields refereed.
Fast becoming a hot prospect, Frank Galarza, 157, Brooklyn, NY, 7-0 (4 KOs), destroyed Yolexcy Leiva-Martinez, 156, Nashville, TN, 5-3 (4 KOs), in only two minutes and fifty-nine seconds. He came out working his jab, landed a left hook to the body that hurt Martinez. Galarza went after him with a barrage of punches that staggered the visitor from Nashville. Galarza opened a cut over Martinez' left eye. After being tagged by a left hook Martinez fell into the ropes and referee Sammy Viruet ruled it a knockdown. After an eight count, Martinez was battered and again fell into ropes as the fight was stopped just as the bell rang ending the first round of six scheduled.
"We trained for all six rounds," said Frankie in his dressing room after the fight where his corner tended to a cut on his forehead from a butt. "But when I felt the warm blood come trickling down it kind of changed my mind. My emotions took over and I said let me take him out because I could see he was hurt."
Ian James, 135, Brooklyn, NY, 2-3 (1 KO), did not look like a winner at the start of the fight. Angel Garcia, 135, Brooklyn, NY, 2-1 (2 KOs), ran out from his corner hell bent on making it three in a row by KO. As he threw punches from every angle he was suddenly staggered by a right then another dropped him to the canvas. He got up only to be hurt again by a flurry. The rest of the four rounds saw James in control most of the way. Now the shoe was on the other foot, with James chasing a fleeing Garcia. The judges were split, 39-36 and 38-37 for James, 38-37 for Garcia, making James a split decision winner. Pete Santiago refereed.
It may have been called a draw, but if you listened to most observers Hamid Abdul-Mateen, 175, Brooklyn, NY, 3-2-2, was very lucky to get that draw in a six round affair against tough Alexander Mancera, 172, Rego Park, NY, 7-4-1 (5 KOs). With the exception of the first frame it was Mansera pressing forward landing the more effective and harder punches on his taller opponent. The judges scored it 58-56 Mateen, 58-56 for Mancera, and 57-57, even. David Fields refereed.
Patricia Alcivar, 113, Forest Hills, NY, 6-1 (3 KOs), outfought and out punched a willing Vanessa Greco, 115, Brooklyn, NY, 1-1-1 (0 KOs) in an exciting four. Viruet was the third man in the ring.
Milkkel Lespierre, 141, Brooklyn, NY, 1-0 (1 KO), did a number on Miguel Rodriguez, 137, Philadelphia, PA, 1-4 (0 KOs), catching him in a corner and throwing power shots that had Rodriguez covering his eye in obvious distress as he sank to the floor at 1:24 of the first of four rounds. Santiago refereed.
In a fight between two debutants, Christian Arrega, 121, Ridgewood, NY, 1-0 (0 KOs), got off first and even managed to counterpunch effectively when he had to, to take a unanimous (39-36 three times) four round decision over Daniel Hernandez, 121, Corona, NY, 0-1. Fields referred.
Women's heavyweight contender Sonya Lamonakis, 6-0-1 (1 KO), was in attendance along with a whole bunch of other professional boxers. Sonya is different in at least two ways from many of her peers; first she is a she; secondly boxing is only her night job, her day job is teaching in the New York City school system. "First I'm an educator before I'm a fighter," said Lamonakis. "I teach kindergarten through fifth grade technology at PS 241 on 113 Street in Harlem, and I have a couple of other certifications too."
Lamonakis first turned to pugilism when she was living in Massachusetts and was jumped. It was then that she decided that she needed to know how to defend herself. "I went to a boxing gym to learn to defend myself and I took a fight three months later and three year after that I was in New York fighting in the Gloves."
She said that she loves to box, "But I'm still a teacher before I'm a fighter." Why not, her students and the staff at her school support her in her boxing career, so that helps to keep her two lives in sync.
Many in boxing will walk a mile to get to a show and ring announcer Joe Antonacci is no different. "It took me three and a half hours to get here with all the traffic," said Joe. "There was a two hour delay at the bridge. The whole way I kept telling myself, at least it's a Felipe Gomez show so I know the fights will be great."
There were many boxing luminaries in the crowd including Luis Collazo, Will Rosinsky, Vinny Maddalone, Juan Dominguez, Mike Ruiz, Tommy Rainone, Junior Jones, Derric Rossy, Sadam Ali, Floriano Pagliar, Curtis Stevens, Sonya Lamonakis, Ariel Duran, Amanda Serrano, and Cindy Serrano, among others.

David Sartin, 49, says that he fell in love with Elena Barykina in 2009 and was set to marry the Ukrainian beauty. Over the course of two years the smitten Texan gave Barykina gifts of cash and jewels, and visited her in Ukraine half a dozen times, only to discover that she was scamming him. Barykina, it seems, made a living bewitching and fleecing unsuspecting lonely men. She even has a web site. In 2011 Sartin wrote to InternetScamsWatch.com saying, "I have learned that all during this two years I have been sending her money by wire transfer as she as requested she is also doing the same to many other men. It was all a fraud from the beginning." Sartin, who claimed to have spent $57,000 on Barykina, before discovering that she had a boyfriend added, "My first thought upon arriving back home was to put an end to myself, but I was feared of not hitting the right spot and the pain would be bad." Ironically, the money he squandered on Barykina seems to have come from a $400,000 payout he got from his ex-wife, Betty Sartin, who told reporters that she had split her retirement fund with him, "I was 13 years older than him, and he played me for a fool. Now he's met somebody a little smarter than him."
Having ruled out suicide, Sartin settled on the next best thing: revenge in the form of a slow and painful murder. According to the Houston Chronicle, in 2011 he decided to hire a hit man to abduct Barykina, put her in a crate and ship it to the U.S. From there he planned to hold her prisoner for at least a week in a fortress-like addition he started building onto his trailer on March 6, 2012. Her death would be a slow and painful one caused by lead poisoning. He even considered eliminating her boyfriend. Luckily, instead of a real hit man, Sartin contacted and undercover agent of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, whose recordings of their conversations led to his arrest. On March 23 Sartin arrived at a parking lot in Beaumont, Texas, with $25,000, handcuffs, a stun gun and a handgun. He was arrested and charged with attempted kidnapping and brandishing a firearm during a crime of violence. On August 20 he pleaded guilty and awaits sentencing. He faces up to 25 years in prison.

Kevin Surrey has been playing tennis at a high level for more than a decade and a half, but it's possible that what he does off the tennis court contributes most substantially to his success as a coach. That's because when he's not serving up practice volleys or praising proper footwork, he's a teacher. He owns a masters of education degree from the University of California, Santa Cruz, so clearly he recognizes the power of positive reinforcement and customized instruction. The approach works for everyone from first-timers to veteran racket swingers, all of whom can look forward to more solid contact, stronger backhands, and more reliable serves.
Over the Bridge Coronado Tennis brings together active amateurs and USPTA-certified coaches at an illuminated five-court facility for rousing matches and lessons.

His group and private lessons cater to players of all ages and abilities, tailoring each session to meet students' needs.

Macaroni Cheese Recipe
Heston: "If you want a real centerpiece, cook the mac and cheese in the hollowed-out rind of a cheese – it adds to the overall cheesiness and looks great. But if you can't buy the whole cheese, I have included instructions for cooking it traditionally. If you can't get hold of these specific British cheeses, you can substitute them for a good quality cheddar."
Serves 4
- 200g macaroni
- ½ tsp salt
- 15ml truffle oil
- 300ml dry white wine
- 300ml brown chicken stock, infused for 20 minutes with Berkswell cheese rind, keep warm
- 80g Spenwood cheese, finely grated
- 10g cornflour
- 80g soft cream cheese
- Black pepper
- 15g goat's cheese, diced
- Berkswell cheese, for gratinating
1. Preheat the grill. Place 400ml of water, the pasta and the salt in a pan over medium-high heat. Cook until the pasta is done and all of the water has disappeared. Toss the pasta with the truffle oil.
2. In a small saucepan, reduce the white wine over a high heat to 30ml. Add the warm chicken stock to the reduced wine. Mix the grated cheese with the cornflour and add to the pan. Stir until the cheese has been incorporated into the sauce, then add the pasta.
3. Cook over a medium heat until the pasta is warmed through, then stir in the cream cheese. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
4. Place in a hollowed-out cheese rind, sprinkle with diced goat's cheese and add more macaroni on top. Alternatively, half fill an ovenproof baking dish with the pasta, sprinkle with diced goat's cheese and add the remaining macaroni on top.
5. Sprinkle some more cheese on top and place under the grill to melt and gratinate the cheese. Serve immediately.

Pink Bean
Arguably the most bizarre boss in the game. For once being the most powerful boss in Maple, Pink Bean sure doesn't look it. This pink Pokemo- I mean monster, is still a considerable challenge today.
As with most other major bosses, the Pink Bean fight is broken up into multiple phases. Six of them in fact.
Before anything though, you have to do the most annoying and tedious part of the Pink Bean expedition… the pre-quest. And you have to do it every. single. time.
The quest requires you to complete all the 999 kill quests from the Temple Keeper in Temple of Time. After that you have to collect 10 of each mask and 1 of each boss etc from the Temple of Time monsters (this is the part you have to repeat every time.) Temple Keeper will give you a Chaos Marble which will finally allow you to fight Pink Bean.
With all that tedious rubbish done, onto the actual fight!
The Pink Bean Boss Fight
Time Limit: 60 minutes.
Total HP: 7,650,000,000 (effectively 9,750,000,000)
Recommended level: 180+
It is advised that you take at least one full party. You need to be quite strong to kill it with less.
Phase 1
Left Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
Upon entering, you'll see an NPC towards the middle of the room. Approach the NPC and speak to it. This will begin the battle. Shortly after, the first statue will activate on the far left. This statue is Solomon the Wise, but I will refer to it simply as the Left Wiseman. This is the least dangerous statue, with only weak magic attacks and hp1/mp1. Kill it to progress to phase 2.
Phase 2
Left Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
Right Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
After the left Wiseman dies, there will be a brief pause in the fight and then it'll respawn. But it will be accompanied by Rex the Wise (Right Wiseman) which, obviously enough, is on the far right. The Right Wiseman occasionally dispels (it has a massive cooldown though) and casts reverse keys. Plus the usual weak magic attacks. None of the statues differ between phases, so the Left Wiseman is identical to phase 1.
Phase 3
Left Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
Right Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
Left Bird Statue: 450,000,000HP
The first phase where death is likely to occur (but entirely avoidable!) Both Wisemen respawn after a brief pause, and they are joined this time by Hugin, which is the Left Bird Statue. Hugin has a wide variety of attacks, all of which can be completely nullified by simply not getting too close. Standing on the left side of the Left Wiseman, you can actually hit the Bird Statue without it doing anything at all. Easiest for ranged obviously but doable for some melee classes too, notably Dark Knights.
If you aren't ranged, simply inch your way closer to it while jump attacking (the Statues hit box is larger at jump height) until you are able to hit. If you get too close, it'll cast a very powerful Damage Reflect dealing up to 33,330 damage. It can also lock your skills, but as long as you keep out of range this will never happen. Rather a flawed boss don't you think?
Phase 4
Left Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
Right Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
Left Bird Statue: 450,000,000HP
Right Bird Statue: 450,000,000HP
Things begin to get serious with this stage, not only do you have the prior 3 statues to deal with once again, but by far the most dangerous statue is now active. Munin (Right Bird) shares the same weakness as its brother. However this one should be attacked from the right side, exact same method, do it correctly and it will never do anything. But if you get too close, the whole run will likely end right here.
This statue has mass seduce, a very very long mass seduce. If you get hit by it, you'll more than likely die (unless you're a Paladin! You immortal gods.) Due to the threat of seduce, you should begin this stage on the right side, so as to avoid EVER being hit by it. With all that said, just keep your distance and this phase will cause little trouble.
Phase 5
Left Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
Right Wiseman: 300,000,000HP
Left Bird Statue: 450,000,000HP
Right Bird Statue: 450,000,000HP
Ariel: 600,000,000HP
The final stage before the Bean itself, all five statues are active. As with stage 4, you should begin on the right. All four prior statues function exactly the same as they have for the rest of the battle. So as before, start on the right and eliminate both the right Wiseman and Bird Statue. Proceed to the left and do the same to the other two. All the while remembering to keep out of range of the Bird Statues. Finally that will leave the middle statue, Ariel.
Ariel has dispel (with a long cooldown.) Weapon and Magic damage cancel, a weak heal, zombify (careful bishops!) and a significantly higher magic damage than the other statues. Reaching about 13k (with zero def, far lower with the def you should have at this level.)
Some classes with poor vertical range cannot hit Ariel from the top platform, instead stand on Pink Beans throne and jump attack. Ranged classes will not have this issue.
Ariel should fall with very little trouble, and once she does, the big bad Bean comes out to play.
Phase 6
Pink Bean: 2,100,000,000HP (resists everything including physical, effectively 4,200,000,000HP)
The most adorable blob of pink jelly has finally stepped into the ring and he's most unhappy about you breaking his precious statues.
This phase is where you can and will fail. Pink Bean is extremely lethal and requires a prepared party to actually defeat. You should have 1 Warrior with magic crash or this part of the fight will be extremely difficult to finish in time.
First off, Pink Bean has a large array of abilities, but he can only use some of them when facing left, and the rest when facing right.
When facing left, he repeatedly hits you with stun and seduce. When facing right, he will hp1/mp1 and skill lock constantly. So pick whichever you'd rather deal with and go with it, though I strongly suggest you make him face right. He will also cast zombify frequently, so it's advised that bishops do not heal at all during this phase.
The big threat about Pink Bean however, is his exceedingly powerful Damage reflect. Like the Left Bird Statue, this one also hits up to 33,330. Unlike the Statue however, you're far more likely to die to this one. Pink Bean casts the first Damage Reflect at 90% hp (about 2.5 buff icons length into his health bar.) His Damage Reflect has a 43 second cooldown, so someone in your party (preferably the Warrior with Magic Crash) needs to keep track of it.
Use the first Crash at 91-92% HP and take note of the time he attempts to cast it. Subtract 40 seconds from that time and that is the time you should stop attacking for the next Damage reflect.
So as an example, say you get Pink Bean down to 92% HP. You cast Crash then in preparation for Damage Reflect at 90% HP. When he attempts to cast it, take note of the time, say 42:30. Subtract 40 seconds: 41:50. That's the time you stop attacking. Wait for him to cast it again and take note of the time once more. You can only Crash every second Damage Reflect however.
Bear in mind, 43 seconds is just the cooldown, he wont necessarily cast it straight away. It merely means that he CAN cast it. So continuing the example, he casts it again at 41:46, you subtract another 40, making it 41:06. Crash a few seconds before that to block the next one. Repeat the cycle until Pink Bean falls.
On top of that, he will also frequently summon large numbers of mini-Beans (with propeller hats!) These cast Weapon cancel almost immediately, obscure your view of Pink Bean (making it harder to see Damage Reflect) and just simply get in the way, they are no threat on their own.
Pink bean has a considerable amount of HP with resistances to everything, so he will take a fair while to bring down (unless you're godly, in which case you've probably killed it before anyway!) Timing Damage Reflect takes a bit of practice and focus, but its the only major threat Pink Bean has. Once you get that down, he isn't too bad. Do all this before the time limit and enjoy your victory!

Artificial spleen offers hope for faster sepsis diagnosis, treatment
Taking advantage of recent advances in nanotechnology and microfluidics, researchers have made significant progress toward a device that could be used to rapidly remove pathogens from the blood of patients with sepsis, a potentially life-threatening condition that occurs when an infection is distributed throughout the body via the bloodstream. The new system effectively acts as an artificial spleen, filtering the blood using injectable magnetic nanobeads engineered to stick to microörganisms and toxins. After the beads are injected, blood is removed and run through a device that uses a magnetic-field gradient to extract the nanobead-bound germs. Then the blood is returned to the body.

Paul Ryan Wow. Talk about anti-climactic.
What is Paul Ryan? Is he a social issue crusader? Nope. Is he someone who brings with him swing state votes? Nope. Is he a true fiscal conservative? Nope (unless you consider GW Bush to be a fiscally conservative). Maybe Jed Babbin from the American Spectator (www.spectator.org) can help us figure out who or what Paul Ryan is. Mr. Babbin says he's by far the best choice.
Also on the show today will be former Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton (www.aei.org), to talk about bubble gum and popcorn as "humanitarian aid" to Iran.
Plus Dr. Barbara Kellerman (www.barbarakellerman.com) to talk lame leaders and Bob Massi (www.bobmassi.com) to discuss the finer points of "burden of proof" in regards to trillion dollar bank scandals.
It's a jam packed Monday edition of The Jerry Doyle Show.

The 4-year-old girl wounded by a stray bullet while watching TV inside an apartment last week is scheduled to be released from an area hospital soon.
Zahara Walker was watching Dora the Explorer on June 8 when a bullet ripped through the front door and struck her in the lower back.
Police say the bullet originated from a shootout between two groups of people in the Colony Apartments.
The motive for the shooting remains under investigation, but sources tell WIS the gunfight was the result of gang violence.
Zahara's mother says the bullet damaged the little girl's liver and stomach. Zahara is scheduled to be released in the next couple of days. She is expected to make a full recovery.
Columbia Police apprehended 21-year-old Marcus Sinclaire Gantt at his home on Lansing Circle last week.

Here's the depth chart for the Baltimore Ravens with the players they have now as of July 2013. Sources have mentioned some if these positions from what they have seen in OTA's and minicamp. 53 + 1 return man (David Reed who won't even be number 1 returner). Obviously nobody can know the final training camp roster. Based on what we know in last year and so far this year the chart is what we have. The chart doesn't encompass every player so the depth isn't all there but I wanted to make every position 2 deep to show at least who is first and second in line for a roster spot.

Our friends at Seedlings to the Stars profiled Jacob Turner over the weekend. He came in as their No. 6 prospect . They wrote: "Turner should be a big, durable front-of-the-rotation presence, and he has three pitches with plus potential.

Reported by
When Daniel Ellsberg leaked the Pentagon Papers to The New York Times in 1971, the Nixon White House tried to discredit him. Among other things, Nixon loyalists burglarized the office of Ellsberg's psychiatrist.
On this edition of Fresh Air, we spend the entire hour with Bud Krogh, who went to prison for his role in the Ellsberg affair — and who has a new memoir. It's called Integrity: Good People, Bad Choices, and Life Lessons from the White House.

Article submitted by Karen Lake.
Tracy Bodily never had any intention of collecting nativity sets, which are also called crèches, until her friend Jennie Brazel suggested that she start.
Brazel is a devoted collector.
"I just didn't see the need for it until about ten years ago," Bodily said. "I then realized I wanted my children to have a crèche they could actually touch. That was what started it all."
She went to work creating a traditional crèche with fabric and stuffing. She decided to put Mary, Joseph, the baby Jesus, the animals, shepherds and wise men surrounding a picnic basket, which would serve as the manger.
Bodily finished a crèche this year that was quite unusual.
"Ms. Brazel had always joked about creating a crèche where Mary looked exhausted and Joseph had extremely large hands," Bodily said. "I took it as my personal task and decided I could do that. I had Mary, Joseph and the baby done years ago, but it didn't really look like the nativity without an angel and some animals. Just this week I finished creating the sheep, the chicken, and the angel."
Such a bizarre crèche might not be what you picture at the traditional first Christmas but that is what seems to make the crèche exhibit so popular.
Nativity sets for 2012 included crèches from around the world, including a crèche the size of a pin, puppet sets, and even a pine cone crèche.
Brazel was more than just a devoted collector and friend. She and Bodily worked together with Judy Goodfellow, another devoted collector, to create the local crèche exhibit every December in Rancho Santa Margarita.
Since 2001, Follow the Star, A Living Nativity, has included the crèche exhibit right before the outside nativity presentation with actors and live animals. Well, that was true until 2011 when Brazel, the original crèche collector, moved to Texas.
"We were so concerned about not having the crèche exhibit in 2011, that we decided to serve cookies and hot chocolate before the living nativity," said Ken Gibson, former Public Affairs Director for the Santa Margarita Stake from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Gibson's assistant Lori George said that during the 2011 Follow the Star season "family after family asked me why the crèche show wasn't part of the living nativity. This year we just had to come up with a plan to bring the crèche exhibit back to Follow the Star."
Bringing the crèche exhibit back was the plan for the 2012 committee for Follow the Star. The first step was to contact Goodfellow, one of the two major crèche collectors who helped with the exhibit.
"I am in my golden years so this is not something I can do year after year," Goodfellow said. "I am happy to help in 2012 and to keep doing it as long as I am healthy, but we really want those in the RSM and surrounding areas that have crèche collections to come forward so that we can continue this beautiful community tradition."
Anyone interested in displaying a crèche for 2013 should e-mail Tracy Bodily at email@example.com.

Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson Will Rock Broadway's Jacobs One Day Earlier; Opening Night Announced
By Andrew Gans
The emo-rock musical Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson, which played an extended run at the Public Theater this spring, will now begin performances Sept. 20 — a day earlier than previously announced — at the Bernard Jacobs Theatre.
Producers Jeffrey Richards and Jerry Frankel, who aligned with the Public on the Broadway transfer of the Tony Award-winning revival of Hair, are also behind Bloody Bloody, which takes an irreverent look at the life of seventh U.S. President Andrew Jackson and his rocky legacy. The Public, Richards and Frankel are all lead producers for the Broadway run.
Opening night is scheduled for Oct. 13.
Bloody Bloody was extended three times during its Public run and also earned a place as the second highest-grossing production in Public Theater history. The record holder is the Tony Award-nominated musical Caroline, or Change.
Benjamin Walker, who embodied Jackson as an electrifying rock star in the world premiere of the musical at Center Theatre Group in 2008 and Off-Broadway at the Public, will re-create his performance for Broadway. Additional casting will be announced shortly.
Alex Timbers, who directed the Off-Broadway run (and is set for the Broadway bow), authored the book to Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson, which features music and lyrics by the Civilians' Michael Friedman.
The raucous rock musical features a company of hipsters carousing about a set that could be a Williamsburg, Brooklyn bar. Bloody Bloody re-imagines Jackson's life and legacy through irreverent emo-rock tunes and a solid dose of rock star flair.
The Off-Broadway creative team will reprise their duties for the Broadway transfer. The production has scenic design by Donyale Werle, costume design by Emily Rebholz, lighting design by Justin Townsend and sound design by Bart Fasbender. Choreography is by Danny Mefford.
Sh-K-Boom/Ghostlight Records recorded the cast album of the musical, which will be released in September.
"Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson just can't be stopped. The voracious audience demand for this extraordinary show is forcing us to kick it up a notch and take it to Broadway," Public Theater artistic director Oskar Eustis said in a statement. "Alex Timbers and Michael Friedman have created an extraordinary event--a rocking, hilarious, sparkling entertainment that is also one of the smartest critiques of America ever seen on a stage. This is what The Public Theater is all about—and I couldn't be prouder of all the artists involved."
Producers describe the musical as "an audacious mix of historical fact and invention, [that] uses the story of America's controversial seventh president—the man who invented the Democratic Party, doubled the size of our nation and signed the Indian Removal Acts that started the Trail of Tears — to investigate the attraction and terrors of American populism, using a raucous blend of outrageous comedy, anarchic theatricality and infectious emo rock."
Tickets will be available for purchase by visiting Telecharge.com or by calling (212) 239-6200.

"This Corvette has been a part of my life since 1971. I was there when my brother-in-law pulled the body off the frame, and I really enjoyed when he and I raced it during the '70s. It was so much fun to bring it back to life as a street-legal open-road racer. I only wish that Smokey was here to see it."
Hedekin is just as proud to see his old Vette back in action. He has taken turns enjoying the Vette on the street and on the course. To Harlan, however, this vintage race car's completion is much more personal. His three-decade wait, from his first sight of this Corvette in 1972 through its completed restoration in 2002, has been worth the Herculean effort. After all, he's successfully honored his favorite hero and brought a once-forgotten Corvette back to race once again. After all, isn't that what Smokey would have wanted?

This post is in response to http://www.bloggingtheboys.com/2012/1/19/2717026/what-the-dallas-cowboys-need-to-copy-from-the-new-york-giants
First, let's get things straight about the Giant-Packer game. The Packers lost it more than the Giants won it.
The Packer receivers dropped more balls in a single game than I've seen in a long time from any team, and Rodgers missed some wide open throws he usually makes. Combine that with three lost fumbles in a game (after having 8?? the entire season) and a prayer that gets answered at the end of the first half, and you have an upset. You have to wonder how the very unfortunate issue with the OC affected their focus during the week.
There are very few things about the Giants I want to emulate. When everybody is healthy, we have a better offense, we a better QB, we have better WRs (if we resign Laurent Robinson), we have better TEs, and we have better RBs. I cannot say much about the OL, but Dallas rushed for 1807 yards this season at 4.4 a clip. The Giants, however, were last in the league at 1427 yards at 3.5 a clip. FYI -- the Giants had 3 more rushing attempts than the Cowboys over the course of the season.
The Giants have better depth on the D-line, but they've had that for several years and nothing to show for it since the 2007 season with the exception of this year.
Dallas must strive to become the same team as the New York Giants.
&*#@* that … the Giants are the benefit of the "on any given Sunday" rule in the NFL (i.e., on any given Sunday, one team can beat another). Atlanta was a weak offensive team that couldn't stretch anybody down the field – Atlanta was the perfect sacrificial lamb for the Giants who are as weak in the secondary as we are. As for Green Bay, I've discussed that above.
Both teams got killed by turnovers
Let me tell you about turnovers, you can never count on them. They are also a big part of the "on any given Sunday" rule. Green Bay was #2 in the league in turnover margin during the year with a +24. The Giants were +8. FYI – the Cowboys were +4 – not too far from the Giants and not bad considering the time only had a month to learn Ryan's offense.
"both the Giants and the San Francisco 49ers were effectively going after the ball and disrupting the quarterbacks, while the supposed favorites in each game failed to do so.
The Saints turned it over 5 times. Although no team should expect to get 5 turnovers in a game (or be +4), if you are +4 in a game, you should win the game by 2 or 3 TDs – not win on a last second play. As for Green Bay, as I noted above, they were 2nd best in the league in turnover margin – it isn't like they weren't trying.
But what they do have, especially with the return of Osi Umenyiora, is a disruptive, penetrating defensive front.
The Giants had a lot of sacks 48, which was tied for 3rd in the league, but the Cowboys had 42 sacks, which was tied for 7th in the league. I'm not seeing a big difference here.
The Giants do not have a statistically impressive defense themselves.
That is an understatement. The Giants gave up 394 points this year (or 24th best in the league) – I'm not seeing anything particularly appealing about that number. The Cowboys gave up 369 points.
In yards/game, Cowboys were 343/game for 14th in the league. The Giants were 376/game for 27th in the league. Again, I'm not sure where your love affair with the Giant's defense derives from.
What else can we look at: Forced/Recovered fumbles for Giants (13/11). For the Cowboys (13/9). Not a big difference.
In the end, your post wasn't about the Cowboys being more like the Giants. Your post was simply you want the Cowboys to draft a defensive lineman in the first round. Yeah … we get it. People are split on whether to go offensive line, defensive line, or secondary. But to bring up the Giants???? All you are doing is getting off message by making the Giants out to be a good team when they aren't.
However, as the examples of the Packers and Saints clearly proved, even an elite quarterback and a red hot offense cannot carry a team. You have to have a defense.
The fact of the matter is that the Giants are far more like the Packers, Saints, Lions, and Patriots than they are the 49ers and Ravens. On yardage basis, the Giants are the 8th in offense and 27th in defense. The Packers are 3rd in offense and 32nd in defense. The Saints are 1st in offense and 24th in defense. The Lions are 5th in offense and 23rd in defense, and the Patriots are 2nd in offense and 31st in defense. The Giants win by throwing the ball, and when their defense can step it up (never a sure thing), they can win. Same thing holds true for all of the other teams on this list except they all have better offenses.
The 49ers are 26th in offense and 4th in defense, and the Ravens are 15th in offense and 3rd in defense. Again, this is vastly different from the Giants 8th in offense and 27th in defense.
They can beat the Giants by imitating the Giants.
The Cowboys can already beat the Giants. The first game proved that. If it wasn't for a complete defensive meltdown over the last 6 minutes (and a little more aggressive play calling) by the Cowboys (i.e., not wait until 3rd down to throw the ball), the Cowboys would have won.
Many people argued that the Cowboys shouldn't want to get in the playoffs because they would have done nothing. However, the Giants proved why that belief was simply wrong because they are showing that a team with a good offense and a bad defense can still go far. Anything can happen in the playoffs and Cowboys have a better all-around team than the Giants.
As for me, I just want the Cowboys to get better -- not be the second coming of the Giants.

The inside of the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center will be a little more colorful, thanks to a new mural that's going up. It also will serve as a memorial and honor those that served our country.
Two art alley artists are working on this expansive mural that's in the East Concourse of the Civic Center. The mural will have the names of 6500 soldiers who sacrificed their lives for our country. Those involved with the project say it's important.
"We think it's a great opportunity to showcase local art and it's a great way with Ellsworth Air Force base here to thank them for all of their hard work," said Priscilla Dominguez of the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center.
"What we're trying to do is let people know that there are still troops over seas that our fighting for our freedom," said Aaron Pearcy, one of the artists painting a mural.
People can come and watch the artists work on the mural. It will be finished by Memorial Day and it will be up until July.

I have a lot of favourite albums that are dirty sounding (i.e. Killing is My Business...) as well. I didn't mean clean and overproduced is good like the new Megadeth shit is. I meant raw, heavy and smooth. Smooth as in pleasant to listen to over and over and over without getting sick of the vocalist or the musician's. It's the difference between Testament's "The New Order" and Exodus without Paul Baloff. That asshole that sings for Exodus on everything after "Bonded by Blood" ruins the listening experience. As you may be aware, he was the original vocalist for Testament before Chuck Billy when they were called "Legacy". You can even recognize his annoying vocal patterns in the songs on "The Legacy" that he wrote the lyrics for. Just imagine how badly Testament would have sucked if they hadn't unloaded that guy. Look at how shitty Metallica solos became after Exodus got rid of Kirk Hammet. How lame would Exodus be if they had that shitty singer and Kirk Hammet as well? Being "progressive" is nothing new and nothing special. If progressive was where it's at then Voivod would be the all time favorite metal band instead of Slayer. Most sound innovators do something simple like Les Claypool deciding that he was going to play in the forefront and make one of the founding fathers of Death Metal guitar (Larry LaLonde) noodle weird melodies in the background. Obituary simply tuned their shit way down and created one of the heaviest and smoothest sounds ever to come out of death metal to this day and I say they rock. So does early Celtic Frost. Six Feet Under does not.
I notice you are a very accomplished tabber, when am I going to hear your awesome riffs and solos? I'd hate to see you become a tabber for Guitar magazine or some shit if you're really that good.
Peace out bro... I hope you get a chance to go to those Saturday and Sunday shows. I'd donate to the cause, but I called my boss a pathological liar and a corporate whore last month, so he released me from servitude and I can only afford to play guitar all day for the time being. The less I spend, the longer my vacation.
Actually, I love Steve Souza's vox and my favorite Exodus album is Pleasures of the Flesh. He sounds a lot like Chuck Billy to me, only angrier and more intense. I love them both. Voivod rocks my socks, so I'm not sure why there's antipathy there.
You made me laugh with your first sentence because you mentioned Nasty Savage and Hallow's Eve right next to each other. When I was like 14, I bought a Hallow's Eve tape for $2 after my Nasty Savage tape got thrown away. The first thing I thought was, "damn, these guys sound like Nasty Savage, but not as good." I still listened to it then. I have it now on my computer in mp3 form, I listen to it once in a while, some songs are worth replay. I didn't get into Possessed and Destruction until I was like 17 or 18 and discovered them via the internet. Actually, the guy who ran the Nasty Savage fan site also had a sister site for Possessed, so I think that's how I found them out. Enough of my life story.
Metallica's solos didn't get shitty after Hammet joined, he played the solos Dave wrote for much of the first two albums. They got wankery around '86, maybe. For what it's worth, I have shitloads of old Exodus demos/rehearsals and shit, and I hate how they sounded when Kirk was there. I hate the songs, mostly, not necessarily how they're played.
I wouldn't worry about getting hired by some shitty guitar magazine, it will never happen, and it if did, that would be cool because I'd be getting money. I wish I could get money to tab, even if I was shitty songs I don't really want to listen to.
I'm not getting to either of those shows, but don't worry about it, I've missed countless shows before, I won't miss not seeing another. There's no cause to donate to, either, that's just BLS fucking around.
Trust in god, he'll give you shoes!

Trying to figure this one out. Tex Clevenger and Bob Cerv were originals in 1961 and traded to the Yankees before the season was half over, but neither played in the World Series in 1961 or 1962.
Best I can figure it was George Thomas who played for us in 1961 too, then got in as a PH for Boston in 1967 in Game 3 & struck out. He also got an AB in Game 6 but made an out so he was (0-2) in 1967. That's the best I can figure.
So I'm also wondering who was the first ex-Angel to get a hit in the World Series and also the first pitcher to appear. Can any one do better than George Thomas?
Also, looking at the early 60's World Series makes me wonder when was the first Angel-Dodger trade? Anyone going to the Dodgers had a good chance to be in a Series up till 1966.

At first I was a bit worried that it would all be a group of one-liners. But as I found out the writing was top-notch. You could see in the first episode that they were finding their way with the characters. But it was a lot of fun watching I'll never look at finding a dead body in the bathroom the same ever!

I bought the WTBA DVD set for my partner as a birthday present - We have not stopped laughing since he played it.
We also loves those Big BEARY guys too.
It's really well done and so camp.
Not trying to take itself too seriously.
We want to visit LA now and be extras in Series 3.
HaHa if only to meet that horny bear cast !!
Great series guys keep up the good work.

We also became curious of this comedy group after watching a few segments on YouTube. We couldn't wait until we got the entire bundle. We were also very impressed with the wide diversity of cast mates and extras used in the filming of the series. We laughed even harder when we watched the bloopers and out takes. Looking forward to the next series, although I do hope they move away from the murder mystery theme as that could get old fast.

Actually, it's great. The argument with Nelson and his old acting buddy at the acting class was epic!

J'ai reçu le DVD rapidement (7 jours pour arriver en France). Il y a pas mal de bonus, mais il n'y a que l'épisodes de Noël (très sympa) qui est sous-titré, les autres bonus n'ont pas de sous-titres ce qui est fort dommage.
Posted by RÉMI B. on 13th Nov 2013
It all started with a few initial episodes watched from the internet, then I became curious: ''Let's have more of this, see where it goes...'' After a few more episodes, I could tell that I'd found a true gem with this series: lots of masculine bears (at last!), real-life imperfect beauties with a story to tell, sheer fun with friends, funny scenarios in which you are sure to recognize yourself at every corner, all this wrapped in a string of hilarious situations, and comments told by true and honest actors who give it all they got to solve a murder case. Very soon, I started looking for Season 1 on DVD, then showed it to a few of friends who don't even like bears. Now, just like me, they can't wait to see Season 2! And the infection is spreading, even among a few of my straight friends...

These guys have a major hit on their hands besides the fact they are all hot!. We had so much fun watching this but could use a little more nudit. Always fun to watch though.
Posted by Unknown on 19th Aug 2013
A highly entertaining video set with plenty of extra features.
Posted by MObehr56 on 16th Aug 2013
Laughed my ass off. Great to have the web series in 1 whole movie. The extras are great to watch also. The interviews show how nice these guys are. Wish they were in my circle of friends. If you don't have the dvd, get it now. Can't wait for season 2 to be released on dvd.

The Alabama Department of Public Safety is cancelling a Missing Senior Alert for a Wetumpka man after the discovery of his body in a pond on family property Wednesday afternoon.
The alert was issued for William Edward Hobbs, 65, Tuesday, one day after he was seen leaving his home. He was en route to a couple of business meetings, according to authorities.
"A neighbor noticed an indention near the water's edge," said Elmore County Sheriff Bill Franklin of an area along Jasmine Hollow Road in Wetumpka. "It's a grassy area so we decided to go ahead and check it out," Franklin explained.
Divers were sent into the water and around 12:30pm divers made the discovery. "We don't know if he had a heart attack or a seizure," Franklin said, adding that Hobbs had terminal cancer. "Divers found the truck and later his body in about 12 feet of water."
Franklin is calling Hobbs' death "accidental".
Through the sheriff, Hobbs' family declined to speak on the situation.
Sheriff Franklin says he hopes to get a better idea of what happened after results come back from the Department of Forensics later this week.

During the morning before London Wasps hosted Bath Rugby in the Aviva Premiership, Sting flew accross the Chiltern's to visit over 1,000 young players at Community Partner Club, Amersham and Chiltern RFC.
Sting buzzed around the Festival and met as many young players, coaches and families as he could, before having to fly back to Adams Park Stadium to help cheer on the boys in Black 'n' Gold, as they beat Bath Rugby 27 - 24 in a nailbiting finish.
After the Festival, Community Rugby Coach Ben Smiley told wasps.co.uk, "Despite a fleeting visit to the Weedon Lane club, it was obvious to see that their 38th Annual Festival was yet again very well supported by the rugby club, and wider community in Amersham."
We look forward to welcoming Amersham and Chiltern RFC to Adams Park Stadium later this season.
To invite London Wasps to your event, please email Ben Smiley or telephone 01494 531122. Requesters should be prepared to offer a reciprocal visit to a London Wasps home game to secure our support.

I don't miss you.
The day still smiles
From the sky.
The calendar has been
Flipped a hundred times
And the clock still wakes
Me up in the morning
And I'm okay.
Coffee talks to me
Like a friend I've known so
And tells me
'What could be any
Better than this?'.
The sheets don't smell
Of you and the room
Clutters of soiled
Shirts, unread books,
Post-its and thoughts
That I couldn't contain.
Some nights
The stars come out
And I know
Life is good.
I don't miss you.
I miss us.

The rest in misery,
Thrown out to the
Hanging on to a cent.

Barely hanging on

Whirlpools go

Pleasing.Professor.Petersen. Released 4/1/12
Tianna's Truth
You were never a mother,
I snatched the title from you .
The day you started neglecting your responsibilities.
You left me to pick up your mess and fend for myself,
I was a kid when this fell in my lap.
Wondering what I did ?
As you fed me daily doses of mental abuse,
exhausting me mentally.
Yet I pushed on.
Got myself scholarships.
Got myself away from you.
And now… you talk like you miss me?
How can you miss something you damaged and threw away?
I raised myself to be a strong woman,
with no help from you.
I survived.
How dare you say you miss me…
I missed you.
Missed home cooked meals and a mother's nurturing care.
But I can't get that back…
just like you can't get your baby back.
I am fully grown
And those memories you threw away for your own selfish reasons,
you will never get back.
I will be OK.
But will you,
Mizz Fab
Part 1
Tianna sat at her desk dumbfounded . What the hell is going on here? Tianna thought to herself. I've had enough of this bullshit. Tianna sat at her desk fuming. This is the third damn paper I've turned in this semester Professor Petersen has given me a failing grade on? Well… what I consider to be failing! This muthafucka has lost his damn mind if he thinks he's going to screw with my grades… my scholarship? When I know for a fact I'm turning in quality papers.
I've had enough of this bullshit! I'm getting to the bottom of all this as soon is class is over!
I want answers. I work my ass off in every class and I've earned every grade it takes to be in this 300 level English class,Tianna thought as fleeting doubts clouded her mind about if it was in fact, a bad idea to have ever signed up for English 382 Romantic Literature taught by Professor Petersen. Tianna recalled meeting Professor Petersen once at a mixer and after talking with him one on one for awhile that night,Tianna knew she had to enroll in one of his classes. They were hard to get into though but when she finally was able to enroll she did. Which I now see was a huge mistake, Tianna thought crossing her arms in disgust and making a futile attempt to concentrate on the remainder of today's class.
Tianna watched the students file out of the lecture hall and then rose from her seat to speak with her Professor Petersen.
Tianna grabbed her books, threw her hobo bag over her shoulder and made her way to the front of the lecture hall.
"Excuse me Professor Petersen, do you have a few minutes? I'd really like to speak to you about the latest grades I've received."
" What exactly would you like to discuss Ms. Williams ? "
" Professor Petersen ,the last few papers I've turned in I've worked very hard on. I did extensive research on each paper and put in a considerable amount of time with each and every assignment. Two C papers and one D? I have to be honest and say I really don't think I deserved those grades."
" Well Ms. Williams I take great pains to carefully read each paper my students submit. I'm sure with a little more research on your part you can get the grades you think you deserve."
"Well that's just it Professor Petersen. All you do is mark through my papers in red. Which is why I'm standing here now to see what's going on with my grades. I can tell you without a doubt, two of the students in this very class with me are my study partners. So how can all three of us be turning in papers to the same professor… yet I'm getting failing grades and they're passing with flying colors? I'm stating beyond a shadow of a doubt that I know my papers are just as good if not better than theirs because they come to me for help. Yet they are receiving A and B marks and I'm getting C and D? What are you wanting that I'm not providing within the content of my papers?" Tianna said not even trying conceal her anger at that point.
" Well now Ms. Williams, let's not jump the gun. You didn't receive F's on your papers."
"Professor Petersen with all due respect, you may as well have given me F's as grades because they're effecting my GPA in the same manner….lowering it! I need to know what I can do to get this grade up. Point blank. This could jeopardize my entire scholarship not to mention the way I'd like my transcripts to read when I'm applying to grad schools. Especially if I continue to get the type of grades I'm getting now." Tianna said hoping he could understand where she was coming from. A lot of the students attending this university had parents to fall back on to help pay for classes. That wasn't the case for her. Tianna worked damn hard to earn the scholarship that enabled her to attend the University of California Los Angeles, one of the top ten universities in the country. In fact delaying entrance in order to earn more money prior to leaving New Jersey and heading to California. The last thing she needed was some asshole professor targeting her with unfair grades.
" Well Ms. Williams why don't you let me give this entire situation some thought, I haven't tallied grades yet but if you're worried about your scholarship,I'm more than happy to see where you're at right now in regards to my class. Please stop by my office on Wednesday so we can discuss what you can do to raise your grades. If in fact you actually need to."
" Thanks Professor Petersen. I really appreciate this more that you realize." Tianna said barely able to contain her disgust at the whole situation. What the fuck is wrong with his reading comprehension that he can't see those papers are great?
Tianna pulled her cell phone out of her purse after she left the lecture hall. Tianna saw she'd missed a call from her boyfriend of the last three months Derek Taylor, a forward on the UCLA basketball team. Tianna pressed his name to call him back.
" Hey Derek."
"What's going on ? I thought we were meeting for lunch ?"
" I know Derek, I'm sorry. I had to meet with that asshole Professor Petersen. Derek he gave me D on my last paper."
" Damn."
" Yes. So I went to ask his pony tail wearing ass about it! I don't know what to do about it either… I'm supposed to meet with him on Wednesday in his office to see what I can do to improve my grade.
I mean,don't get me wrong. I appreciate him offering but honestly , I don't feel like I should have to do anything extra. I put a lot of effort into my work you already know that Derek." Tianna said sighing.
" I feel you. Anyways, are we getting together later? I wanna see you and kiss on you a little bit for the day…since that's all you're letting me get right now."
" Derek please. That is the absolute last thing on my mind right now. Don't you understand this isn't a small issue for me?This grade could effect my scholarship… you know what, I'll just talk to you later OK." Tianna said disconnecting the call.
Why am I even being bothered with this shallow son of a bitch ? I already know the answer, I was bored. Derek is a dumb muthafucka! Fine but dumb none the less! Tianna thought to herself walking towards the open quad area. It was a beautiful California day. Damn. Tianna thought looking towards the sky. This beats "Dirty Jersey" all day everyday!
Tianna found an empty bench and sat down to mull over her talk with Professor Petersen. I have to do anything I can to bring this grade up before the end of the semester, Tianna thought to herself placing her headphones on and pulling out her textbook to go over some of her required class reading. There were only a few weeks left before the the semester ended and summer break started. I need all my grades to be on point. This is not a game. Professor Petersen has got me fucked up!

I debated whether or not to post this because we lost the game but decided to share after all. Even though the final score isn't what we wanted, we still had a great time on our trip to Manhattan. The people were very nice and welcoming - more than one KSU tailgate offered us food and drinks!
Here is a video of our guys taking the field that will make you feel like you are right there:
And below is our first TD and celebration:
We were excited to say the least!
Here is a link to some photos from the trip.
I think there were a lot of positive signs from this team and I know they will work hard to improve each week. Looking forward to Saturday night at the Rose Bowl! GO BRUINS!!

[Rumor] No SAMOLED and no Exynos for the GSIV (UPDATE: leaked screenshots!)
Also home button, aluminum sides, plastic back, and no pebble shape.
The no samoled thing is kinda good news but if it has the same old shiny plastic back my next device won't be another samsung.
Update: Some leaked screenshots from the phone show a quadcore processor not an octacore one. Also the settings menu uses a light theme that samsung currently uses for its tablets so that might confirm the absence of amoled as well.

I decided to do something a little different today. I've had a few people suggest that I should do YouTube makeup tutorials, and I thought I would give it a shot. I made this look up as I went along.
One of my favorite things about fall time is how daring I can be with my make up. I've always loved rocking a smoky eye, but it never really looks right in the summer months. This look is perfect for the nights you want to feel a little sultrier.
Before I filmed this video I prepped my face with moisturizer and primer. I'm thinking of doing a flawless face tutorial. Thoughts?
Could YouTube have picked out a more unattractive video still???? Grrrrr……..

What suggestions do you guys have? I'm thinking "Save The Last Dance", but what about after that. I need your input! I know you ladies love these movies!
Till next time…I hope you enjoyed this tutorial!

QuickOffice Edit Word and Excel on Chrome OS
Google has added QuickOffice to edit Word and Excel files on your Chrome OS for developers. After the news that Google was on the QuickOffice port NativeClient.
QuickOffice is on the Chrome OS that can edit Word and Excel now (but still can not PowerPoint have) does not need to edit the file to Google Drive (I expect to be a Native Client, but that is not to say it), and I would expect that when allowing users to use.

Penegra, one of the safest medications that is used to treat impotency in men by giving them a stiffer organ. Penegra once consumed restores the proper functioning of the male organ by increasing the blood supply in the penile region. Once the sufficient blood reaches the male organ it helps the impotent men to achieve desired hard on to perform the sexual activity. The effect of the pill lasts for 4 to 6 hours which is a sufficient amount of time to perform the sexual activity satisfactorily. This is one effective pill that has proved effective and has given effective results.
Penegra is a well known medication which uses Sildenafil Citrate. Penegra is cost effective and is easily available at any online pharmacy.
WAYNE, ANDERSON, Ohio" Penegra was a new medication for me as I had never tried such medications before. But it stood to my expectations and helps me get the hard on I was looking for. But I wonder whether I can go for more pills in one dose for extended time. I will surely speak to my doctor about this. "
LINDA, DIAZ, (Los Angeles)" It is not often that wives order pills for their hubby, but I had to do this to help my hubby get out of depression caused due to inability to become a father. However, Penegra was a double boon which not only relieved the problem but also enabled us to have pleasurable sessions whenever desired. "

Junior Zac Prattson, junior Pete Crinella and sophomore John Leonard scored two goals each as the Cathedral boys hockey team rolled over Norwood, 7-1, on Saturday.
Leonard also earned a pair of assists, and freshman Tim Zmuda scored his second goal of the year.
Seeing those names on the scoresheet is nothing out of the ordinary for the Panthers. Seeing freshman goalie Keith Petruzzelli's name there, however, is a different matter. Petruzzelli earned an assist on Saturday when he sent the puck up the ice to Leonard, who went on to score.
Petruzzelli, who is committed to play at Quinnipiac University, also played his first complete varsity game on Saturday. He stopped nine of 10 Norwood shots.
