This is perhaps Emelianenko's greatest power right now, the power to generate attention. It comes from everywhere, and is the reason Strikeforce had no choice but to find a way to re-do his deal, as M-1 insisted. Now comes the tricky part; finding a way to turn that interest and investment into something tangible.
If it were only up to Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker, it might be a simpler challenge, but when you get into the Fedor business, for better or worse you are in business with Team Fedor, the M-1 management group that has its own interests and pursuits to balance with those of their flagship fighter.
If you listened close enough to what Coker said on Tuesday's conference call -- which coincidentally was supposed to be not about Emelianenko, but about May 15's Alistair Overeem-Brett Rogers matchup -- the clues were there that the challenges will still be around in the future. For example, when asked if the winner of the Overeem-Rogers matchup would face Fedor in the future, there was no clear-cut answer. It doesn't seem unreasonable that the scenario could have been addressed during the recent round of negotiations, but apparently that was not the case.
"As you know, M-1 Global and Strikeforce have a co-promotion agreement, and that's something we'll have to discuss after the fight," Coker said.
It was pure coincidence, but also wildly ironic that Coker stayed on the call for the first 20 minutes, just long enough to answer most of the questions pertaining to Emelianenko, before he excused himself to attend a meeting.
During those 20 minutes, Coker did not divulge many details, citing the contract's confidentiality. But he did pass along one key fact, telling the media that he is looking forward to promoting "multiple fights" with Fedor.
"The M-1 Global/Strikeforce relationship has never been just about one fight," he said. "It's been about multiple fights, and that's all I want to say about that."
That at least puts to rest any speculation of Emelianenko jumping ship to the UFC, but it also leads to new questions, mainly: With M-1 satisfied with their new deal, will they become easier to deal with?
Keep in mind that M-1 has had issues with all of the U.S. promoters with which they've done business, from the barely remembered Sibling Sports to Affliction and now Strikeforce -- and all in a three-year span. In addition, UFC President Dana White grew so flummoxed in dealing with the management team that he essentially threw up his hands at the situation, infamously referring to M-1 as "the crazy Russians."
That frustration spills over to the fighters as well. Overeem noted during the call that he's been lobbying for a shot at Emelianenko for 18 months. For one reason or another, he's been rebuffed at every turn, saying that M-1 has put "barriers" between the two fighters and made the fight impossible.
When asked by MMA Fighting why M-1 would do that, Overeem sighed before expounding.
"I think [M-1] wants to keep Fedor's status as undefeated," he said. "I think they see me as a threat to that. One of the managers of M-1 global, I know him personally. He knows the way I train, he knows what I'm capable of. He's been around my career, he had an eye on my career for a long time. So I think it's that, they want to keep his status undefeated and any potential threat, they stay away from that."
Overeem was quick to point out that he does not blame Emelianenko for the fight not happening ("He's like me, he doesn't care who he fights," he said), but said with M-1 essentially running interference, it had been an impossible and impossibly frustrating proposition.
And therein lies the rub; Emelianenko is essentially the golden goose for the promotion, and the golden carrot for Strikeforce heavyweights.
With a new deal in place, everyone -- the fans, media and fighters -- are left to hope that Emelianenko and M-1 are fully on board and ready to take on all challengers.
The man isn't even the Strikeforce champion, but he is in effect, the world champion at large, with a shadow so long that it can envelop two men at one time. Today was supposed to be a day for Overeem and Rogers to hype their title fight, but that hope was destroyed like most everything else in Emelianenko's path. The day became about one man, the heavyweight everyone wants, but who seems at times untouchable and unreachable. At 33 years old, Emelianenko is not old, but neither is the clock on his side any longer. Here's hoping that the time for negotiation and politics is over, and the time for fighting is at hand.

"When It Comes to Moving Me, You Know You Guys Are The Champs"
Note: Not a recent photo. Not my stuff.
The Load Out was ably performed by Pebbles, Slater and me. I'm in, mostly. It wasn't hitchless, but it's mostly done. I still don't have internet access yet, so I'm back at the old place picking up a few more things.
There's still a ton of stuff to do: unpacking, decorating, buying necessities. However, I decided that there wasn't really a deadline on those things and they could easily wait without penalty. What can wait no longer is my routine of healthful living. So I came home from work (after going by the box store to get some more keys made - I've already managed to get myself locked out once) and changed into my workout close and went for a walk at the neighborhood school. It was just wonderful. There was all kinds of activity -families playing, people walking dogs, running. I loved it. I put in an hour and then came home to resume the tasks.
I still don't have internet access at the new place, so I'm over at The Closet picking up some stragglers and thought I'd post a quick update to say that I'm alive and I'm looking for my pants.
Take good care of yourself. Be kind to others. First things first.

By Dan Guttenplan
Sports Editor
---- — Nick Mombello takes pride in his Newburyport roots, and he's always wanted to pursue a career that pays homage to his hometown.
The recent Newburyport High graduate will take the first step in fulfilling that goal July 3 when he leaves for the Coast Guard Academy in New London, Conn.
"I always thought it was cool that Newburyport was where the Coast Guard originated," Mombello said. "I thought it would be cool to be in the Coast Guard. I learned I could go to college and do the Coast Guard. I love the ideals they have, and I can play sports at the academy. It's the coolest thing ever."
Mombello, who captained the Newburyport hockey and lacrosse teams as a senior, plans to play both sports at the Coast Guard Academy. He has also earned a third-degree black belt in karate at Tokyo Joe's Karate Studio in Salisbury, where he also serves as an instructor.
"A lot of the focus and determination from karate transfers into athletics," Mombello said. "A big part of hockey and lacrosse is being able to focus. It's determining what I want to do and focusing to get better at it."
On the ice last winter, Mombello captained the Newburyport hockey team to its first Cape Ann League title in coach Paul Yameen's 10 years as coach. Mombello played the role of a disciplined, stick-handling defenseman on a team that recorded five shutouts.
"I loved playing hockey," Mombello said. "Hockey has always been my No. 1 lifelong sport. I love it. The ability to play in high school with all of the guys I grew up with was a great experience."
Mombello started playing lacrosse in middle school, and was a big part of a high school program that has posted a record of 58-14 over the last four seasons. He earned CAL All-Star honors this spring after serving as Newburyport's top on-ball defenseman. Unfortunately for Mombello, he was unable to finish his career in the state tournament as a senior due to post-concussion symptoms stemming from a collision in practice. Newburyport coach Ed Gaudiano remembers Mombello's attitude after suffering the head injury as a positive for the team heading into the tournament.
"It took him a little to get over it, but then he spoke to the team," Gaudiano said. "He was at every practice and both playoff games helping out. He'd look out from the sideline and give tips. That's Nick all the way. You couldn't ask for a better teammate."
Mombello said he has been able to resume his training for the Coast Guard over the last week, once his concussion symptoms cleared. He will spend July and August going through Swab Summer — a seven-week initiation period at the Coast Guard Academy similar to boot camp. In exchange for his free four-year education at the academy, Mombello will make a five-year commitment to serve in the Coast Guard after his graduation.
"As an officer in the Coast Guard, I don't know where it will take me," Mombello said. "It's something I've always wanted to do, so I'm excited to get started."

Madison County law enforcement and judicial
leaders told Mike Hubbard the state needs to make a major investment in the
state forensics lab in Huntsville in order to alleviate major delays in trials
and investigations.
The backlog in the forensics lab is not a new
issue. The state has cut the lab's budget for the last several years and even
closed a lab in Florence, causing more delays because Shoals law enforcement
now has to process evidence in Huntsville.
Speaker Hubbard said concerns have come from
police chiefs, investigators, and the Madison County District Attorney's
office. He said the state is limited on cash, although he understands if
something is corrected, it will not only benefit people in Madison County, but
also the surrounding counties that use the lab.
"I will be utilizing Representative Johnson
from a House standpoint and doing some investigating and finding out what we
can do," said Hubbard. "But I can tell you it is on our radar in a big way."

Did you know that for years hidden behind the foliage and trees of the Metropolitan Baptist Church was a homeless encampment? Neither did the property owner, "Well I actually have known since June, and I was informed by the city manager that they were there. Prior to that I did not know", said Dr. Emanuel Wilkes. He no longer has to worry because "effective September 1st, person were no longer allowed to sleep or gather on the Wilkes property", according to a sign placed on the land by the City of Columbus.
Now that they are gone, where did they go? Dr. Wilkes said, "they (the city) have a process, a protocol which they will inform the homeless and then give them 45 days to relocate and they will assist them in relocating". The city has a 10 year plan to end homelessness in Columbus and it's being executed by the United Way's "Home For Good", headed by Christie Bevis. Ms. Bevis says, "the city contacted us and said can you help us coordinate in doing an outreach project coordinating service providers and lets see what type of housing assistance or direct services we can provide to those community member living behind the Metropolitan Baptist (Church)."
For the displaced, behind the church was home for many years, and despite the help from various organizations like Home for Good, New Horizons and the Homeless Resource Network, many of them were not anxious to leave. According to Ms. Bevis, "One of the interesting dynamics about that particular encampment is that it is somewhat isolated and hidden, so I think for the people who were staying there it was really out of choice". Home for Good's Team of service providers visited the encampment twice a week every week in a 45 day window. They serviced about 20 individuals experiencing one or a combination of challenges like mental illness, drug and alcohol abuse, or just a lack of affordable housing. As a result, many of them choose to self-relocate.
Even though the experience with the Metropolitan Baptist Church shows how difficult it is to really plug into the problems of the homeless community, Christie Bevis is still optimistic saying, "there has been a lot of direct service providers but interest within the private sector too. (There is) a community of concern citizens (who want to know) how can we be a part of this effort, and how can we help move it forward and I think Columbus has a rich history of strong private-public partnerships.

When: This Sunday, Jan 16th 9:00am-the first body drops
Where: Houston Playground
900 Grakyn Lane
Philadelphia, Pa 1928 (really Upper Roxborough)
Map: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=40.069332,-75.231442&z=17&t=h&hl=en
The snow forced us to cancel last week's, so we'll try again this Sunday. We got some snow last night, but that should be gone by then. The rest of the week looks like clear sailing, weather-wise.
One thing, there was some talk about the start time earlier. I know some people have long drives, and some people work nights, so what is everyone's feeling on our 9am start? We want to accomodate everyone, so speak up if you prefer a later start. Bear in mind, we try to start early to get the rink for ourselves, as we learned last time. But if enough people want a later start, then so be it......
Any questions, ask below. If you plan on playing, just give a shout-out that you're in so we can attempt to get a head count......

Ruth T. Morin
BELLINGHAM- Ruth T. "Ruthie" (Hoyle) Morin, 84, of Bellingham, MA passed away on Saturday, March 17, 2012 at Milford Regional Medical Center with her loving family and best friends by her side. She was the beloved wife of the late Philibert A. "Phil" Morin, Jr.
Born in Boston, MA on January 20, 1928, she was the daughter of the late Alfred and Mary (McKenzie) Hoyle.
WARWICK – If nothing else, Sunday offered Rocco Baldelli a rare chance to partake in some deep-seeded reflection.
An intensely private sort, Baldelli more often than not comes across as a man of mystery rather than someone who's willing to lay all his cards on the table. Such an introverted/reclusive approach helped the Woonsocket native get through the turbulent times that arose during his career of seven major-league seasons, the belief at the time that the less the general public knew, the better.
As its highest ranking official and ambassador last year, George L. Glover III of Coventry, immediate past sovereign grand master of the Sovereign Grand Lodge of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, unexpectedly found himself wearing another hat: Globe trotter.
Since his installation as sovereign grand master in August 2010, he's traveled to five continents, logging more than 75,000 miles of flight time winging off to far flung places like New Zealand and Australia.
If Woonsocket's Andre Soukhamthath was looking to make his first full year as a professional mixed martial arts fighter a truly exceptional one, then he's off to a brilliant start.
The electrifying bantamweight prospect kicked off the year by picking up his first pro victory on Feb. 3 with a second-round submission of Gilvan Santos before a large gathering of local fight fans at Twin River.
WOONSOCKET — The City Council has posted notice of a special meeting on Wednesday during which the panel will consider legislation empowering the city to pass a supplemental tax bill to help plug a $10 million hole in the School Department's budget.
Autumn Hughes, 5, of Cumberland, left, and Makayla Lorusso, 10, of Woonsocket, try on some St. Patrick's Day hats and beads at Party Town in Woonsocket Friday.
WOONSOCKET – The name of John Baccaire's company is Coventry Building and Wrecking, but he will tell you his business is actually just another way to recycle.
Baccaire and his daughter, Project Manager Kim Baccaire, have been busy this winter overseeing the "recycling" of the former French Worsted Mill complex off Hamlet Avenue and have reached a milestone in the massive undertaking.
By JOSEPH B. NADEAU
WOONSOCKET — They had heard the stories about the 1994 Genocide in Rwanda and had even met a survivor who visited their school a year ago.
But a group of seniors from the high school now knows just reading about a defining moment in history, or researching media coverage about it, isn't enough to give true understanding of the impact it had on those experiencing it.
LINCOLN — Fielding phone calls, requests and inquiries from collegiate softball coaches are nothing new to Mark and Marie Mayer, the parents of Lindsay Mayer, Lincoln High's magnificent junior shortstop.
They actually started during her eighth-grade year; that's when University of South Florida head coach Ken Erikson asked Mark and Marie if they would bring their daughter to the Tampa campus so they could meet.
Sheila M. Roberts
WOONSOCKET- A Memorial Service for Sheila M. (Keefe) Roberts, 58, of Woonsocket RI, who died Wednesday (March 14, 2012) will be held Tuesday (March 20th) at 6PM at The Ocean State Baptist Church, 600 Douglas Pike, Smithfield RI. Memorial donations may be made to The Ocean State Baptist Church.

NASCAR Media Tour underway in Charlotte
Kurt Busch puts his chances at "70 percent" at running the Indianapolis 500 this year because of recent developments that have pushed a potential program along.
He's got the blessing of Stewart-Haas Racing co-owners Gene Haas and Tony Stewart, and Haas said he'd be interested in being involved in Busch's program if the driver inquired.
So what's standing in the way?
Busch says he's got to figure out if he's doing it for fun and as a challenge, or if running both the Indy 500 and NASCAR's Coca-Cola 600 on the same day is a business decision.
He tested last year with Andretti Autosport and completed rookie orientation, and says if he runs the 500, he'd like to do it with Michael Andretti.

Irresistible Sausage and Corn Bread Stuffing
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 3/4 cups yellow cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1 pound hot Italian sausage
- 2 cups chopped onions
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped celery
- 1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 1/2 orange bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 1/2 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh sage
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 2 large eggs
1. To make cornbread, heat oven to 450 degree F. In a large skillet over high heat, cook bacon until crisp. Drain bacon on paper towels, chop, and set aside. Reserve bacon grease. Grease an 8-inch square glass baking pan with bacon grease. Set aside. In a large bowl, combine bacon, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, and mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, cream, and eggs. Add the milk mixture to the cornmeal mixture and whisk just until blended. Place the empty pan into the oven and heat until the bacon grease just begins to smoke. Pour in the batter and bake until the top is brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
2. In a large nonstick skillet over high heat, cook sausage until slightly brown, breaking it up with a spoon, about 3 minutes. Add onions, celery, and peppers, reduce heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes more. Cut the corn bread into cubes and transfer to a large bowl. Stir in sausage mixture until well combined. Add parsley, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper and mix well. In a cup, whisk orange juice and eggs until well blended, then stir into stuffing.
3. To stuff turkey, proceed as directed for Juicy Roast Turkey (see Recipe Center). To bake: Heat oven to 350 degree F. Spoon stuffing into 2 well-buttered 13x9-inch glass baking dishes. Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until crisp, 10 minutes more. Makes 12 cups.

The delay will allow producers a chance to recruit additional investors for the musical, which will cost $9.5 million to mount on Broadway. The extra time will also allow librettist Barry Levinson a chance to sharpen his script, which is based on his screenplay for the film.
Producer Scott Zeiger told the Times, "Everyone just feels it needs more work to be better, and we want it to be the best...We wanted to do the creative work without a spring opening being a gun to our heads. And we want to raise all the money, so we can open on Broadway without worrying about making budget and having reserve funds if ticket sales are slow at first."
Producer Zeiger also said that a developmental workshop in October was affected by Hurricane Sandy; fewer investors joined the producing team at that time than had been hoped.
Diner, based on Levinson's 1982 film, is set in Baltimore, 1959, when six high school friends reunite at the one place they know they'll always belong: the Diner. "Now in their twenties, the friends have stumbled into adulthood and struggle to keep from growing apart," according to production notes. "Life, love, responsibility — it's all on the table."
Crow, who is composing the musical's score, is a nine-time Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter.
The production team includes scenic designer Derek McLane, lighting designer Peter Kaczorowski and sound designer Scott Lehrer with orchestrations and music direction by Mitchell Froom.
Academy Award winner Levinson received an Oscar nomination for his original screenplay for "Diner," which was his film directing debut. The rueful film comedy starred Kevin Bacon, Ellen Barkin, Tim Daly, Steve Guttenberg, Paul Reiser, Mickey Rourke and Daniel Stern.

If we could go back in time and re-do Voyager....

I agree that the Borg had been neutered like they had Bob Barker running the show. In an attempt to get a recurring threat they gave us the Hirogen (weak) and species 8472. 8472 was interesting because they really started off nasty but then Bob Barker got to them as well.
That being said, there were some truly exceptional episodes and as a time traveler I would point them out as examples on how to do things right. Mentioned earlier was the 2 part episode Equinox. It worked great as a what if ethical decision type episode. There was also the first episode that introduced species 8472. A very dark enemy that showed so much promise to be a real threat only to be ruined in later episodes. Year of hell also held so much promise and while it was good they could have and should have made a complete season of it. Missed opportunity. My exceptional episodes are more personal in scope for the crew or individuals. 1st would be the episode where the doc's memories were being erased only to discover it was the captain because he was having an ethical crisis that almost destroyed him. Excellent episode and I would have loved to see more like that. 2nd was again an ethical one involving the doctor and dealing with family and death. The 3rd is because of the interesting concept and choice of actors. David Hyde Pierce (Niles Crane from Frasier) playing a 24th century Borg. Not only touching but like the previous 2, very well acted.
Give us more like these. They are lost in the Delta Quadrant. Not every episode will have a happy ending. Like City on the Edge of Forever, not all great science fiction has to be all happy at the end. The ones that stay with us are the ones that affect us on a personal level. Farscape did that as well including were Chrichton messes up the past and ends up getting the women of the monastery killed. Many episodes of Voyager did not do that. I always felt that Voyager for the most part was playing it safe.

Cam Newton...
Just reading the name gives me a headache. I can't understand how anyone sees him as a top pick, especially for the Bills. Coach Gailey has said they want decision-making and accuracy, which doesn't make me think of Cam Newton.. Buddy has also talked about getting guys with experience, which Newton also lacks.
He is an unbelievable athlete I will give him that.. but that won't get you by in the NFL like it did in college. The mental aspect of the game is just as (if not more) important than being a physical specimen, especially for the QB position. I watched the Gruden QB Camp on Newton and i was not impressed. (You can watch it here -> http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=6375220) Sure, he was charming and charismatic, but he had nothing smart to say about football.
You could say that he is just a "winner." He simply won games, including obviously the BCS championship. Here are the last 10 "winners" in college football.
2001 - Josh Heupel, Oklahoma
2002 - Jen Dorsey, Miami (FL)
2003 - Craig Krenzel , Ohio State
2004 - Matt Mauck, LSU
2005 - Matt Leinart , USC
2006 - Vince Young, Texas
2007 - Chris Leak, Florida
2008 - Matt Flynn, LSU
2009 - Tim Tebow, Florida
2010 - Greg McElroy, Alabama
My point here is success in college does not necessarily mean you will do well in the NFL. I am trying not to be biased but I simply have no reason to believe he is worthy of such a high pick.
Please feel free to try to convince me Cam Newton is a good idea, I'm very open-minded...

I had never heard of Mariqueen until I discovered HTDA, but, after some research online, I found she was previously in the L.A. band West Indian Girl as a backup singer, that she was a Playboy Babe of the Month and that she married Trent Reznor soon after leaving her prior band. As far as available facts go, that was pretty much it.
During my phone interview, I found Mariqueen to be sweet and funny and, at six months pregnant, focused on preparing for motherhood. She was also clearly excited about her new project with her husband. I knew the story would cause some Internet buzz because we were the first publication to report her pregnancy, but what I didn't expect was the comment frenzy that followed the article on our Web site, WWD.com.
As of the time of this post, there were 405 comments about her and the story -- everything from the positive, stating she's "fabulous," "totally rad," "cute" and "charming" to the very negative, labeling her a "gold digger" and "untalented" and calling her relationship with Reznor a "hoax." Some comments were so nasty that heated arguments ensued between her detractors and defenders.
It's likely that a lot of the responses did not come from the typical WWD reader, but from other Web sites that had picked up the story. And while I certainly was excited to see such a strong reader response -- one of the strongest we have ever had on the site -- the extreme negativity of some of the comments made me wish people would get back to whatever it is they do on a daily basis. One commenter may have said it best: "The fact that there is so much hatred for her is a testament to the power she has over people. You crazy loons just keep talking about her and keep making her famous!"

Quite frankly, the weekly and monthly THREATS have really been annoying, but bringing my kids into it has crossed the line from being just business to being personal.
So that said, without further ado, I bring you the Monkey Business of Boxingtalk...where fans are monkeys, paying members are monkeys, employees are monkeys, fighters are monkeys...basically everyone is a monkey.
"My attorney will be following up with a letter instructing you to cease and desist from posting BoxingTalk.com's copy-righted paid for members only material on your free message board. Copies will be emailed and mailed to your address momentarily. Is there a lawyer he should send this letter to?" - G. Leon to Hype
"I honestly never wanted to go down this path with you out of respect for your children, but acting as you have it's obvious you care more about starting trouble than you do about them." - G. Leon to Hype
"You and your boarders can say whatever you want about me, I laugh that stuff off, matter fact it makes me work harder." - G. Leon to Hype
Much, much more to follow...

You must have got that letter today from the lawyer.
Actually no...I haven't received anything yet...but he did ask me if there was a second address to send the cease and desist letter to. I have no idea what other address he would need...I guess my lawyer's address, although I don't have one....but whatever...if he's going to send it, then send it.
No, I just stewed for about a week on that comment regarding me not caring about my kids...I just couldn't hold it in anymore...now, I'm just like:
I mean, who the fuck does this guy think he is to imply that I don't care about my kids simply because I wouldn't take down some fuckin threads? I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't HE the one who's been parading around at fights with some stripper attached to a leash while his WIFE and KIDS are at home? FUCK THAT! I can't wait for him to deny that one just so I can post the email he forwarded to me from the OTHER chick who broke it off with him. This guy has some nerve to bring my kids into this. I've had enough!! You got a problem with me and my business...that's one thing...but to say he didn't want to go down this path out of "respect for my children" and that I don't care about them....FUCK THAT! UGH! IT JUST PISSES ME OFF EVEN THINKING ABOUT!!!!!
I fuckin' carried Boxingtalk on my back for YEARS...slaved on it for so many days and nights...put in more hours and work than ANYBODY...INCLUDING LEON...editing videos, converting audio, ripping DVDs, hype boxes, popup ads, chats, handling all the member problems that he'd forward on to me...you name it, I did it...whatever he asked for, he got and I never asked for anything in return.
If it wasn't for me, the site would still look like a damn black and white ransom note like it did when Leon took over. If it wasn't for me, he'd still paying enourmous bandwidth fees to third-party streaming companies, like this one:
If it wasn't for me, he wouldn't even be able to update the site on his own right now.
I've done more for the fans and members of boxingtalk than any of them know...and what's sad is that I, not Leon, but I was the one that actually cared about them, and yet they all think he gives a damn about them!
I'm sure Leon is looking at this now and his reply would be that I'm bitter...but I'm not bitter...if I were bitter, I would have come out with a lot of this stuff a loooooong time ago. I'm not bitter at all. On the contrary, I'm EXTREMELY happy to be on my own now and not have to hear his irritating, "what's good my nigga...I just bought some new kicks....I just picked up a new snakeskin hat....you would be so proud of your boy...blah, blah, blah". However, I'm EXTREMELY irritated that this child just won't leave me alone and I'll be DAMNED if he thinks he's going to say that I don't care about my kids or use his intimidation tactics to try and scare me. Nah homie...I'm not your typical monkey....this one knows how to fight back. Whether I win or lose really makes no difference to me (well...okay...that's not exactly true...I don't like to lose), but I'll definitely be sure to get my licks in. If he wants to "crush" me like he recently told Rick Reeno of Boxingscene.com, then bring it!

This is a beautiful crack that perfectly dissects the North Sentry Block. It is an obvious climb that sits just below the Buoux Block and has commanding views of the valley.
Enter the West Entrance and park in the Falls Parking lot. Cross above the falls and immediately take a left and hike along the mud-cliffs. The boulder is about 100 yards up the hill almost directly above the actual waterfall.
The landing is really hard to protect and makes the top of the climb a serious commitment.

Documentary Filmmaker Errol Morris Writes About Jeffrey MacDonald Case After His Movie Is Rejected
Posted Sep 4, 2012 1:33 PM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Documentary filmmaker Errol Morris helped free a convicted murderer after his film, The Thin Blue Line, suggested there had been a miscarriage of justice.
Now Morris has turned his attention to Jeffrey MacDonald, the Army doctor convicted of killing his family in 1970 despite his assertion that the perpetrators were hippies who chanted, "Acid is groovy, kill the pigs." Morris tried to interest studios in a documentary, but turned to writing after getting turned down, the New York Times reports. His new book is A Wilderness of Error.
The Times says the book has "enormous investigative heft, with page after page deconstructing fibers, flower pots, hobby horses and source documents. What it does not have is a neat little ending where the reader comes to believe that a wronged man is in jail." Morris, however, believes in MacDonald, who was the only member of his family to survive the crime.
"I believe he is innocent. I don't see any evidence to suggest that he is guilty," Morris told the Times. "One thing we do know is that evidence was lost, some of it went uncollected, and some of it was contaminated. One of the reasons we can't prove he is innocent is that so much of the evidence is unavailable to us."
The Richmond, Va.-based 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled more than a year ago that a federal court was too restrictive when it barred much of MacDonald's evidence in assessing his claim of actual innocence. A new hearing will be held on Sept. 17.
Joe McGinniss, who wrote Fatal Vision, a book about the case published in 1983 has been subpoenaed to appear at the hearing in North Carolina. "There is no question in my mind that [MacDonald] did it, and that it was proved in a court of law, and that every court that has looked at that jury verdict has upheld it," McGinniss told the New York Times. He said he "looks forward to going wherever I need to to play whatever small role I can play in keeping him where he belongs."

Customers could end up paying more and seeing fewer options the next time they fly.
A national pilot shortage could affect you the next time you head to the airport. Over 27,000 pilots are expected to retire over the next 20 years.
Not only that but new federal regulations are making it harder to become commercial airline pilots. When those regulations go into effect, it could affect regional airlines, like some in Moline, the most.
At Carver Aero in Davenport, two new flight instructors have been hired and a new Red Bird flight simulator brought in to prepare more students for the skies.
"We saw it coming, we hired the instructors, universities are hiring instructors," Flight Instructor Jordan Bidwell says.
The national pilot shortage has more students flocking to flight schools.
"The odds are looking very good here if you want to become a professional pilot," Bidwell says, "This is the wave, this is where we catch the wave is right now."
As several thousand pilots are forced to retire at age 65, Bidwell says one airline is retiring 230 in a month alone in February, new federal regulations to make flying safer require new pilots to have up to 1500 hours of flight time. That can take at least seven to ten years to achieve.
Before some pilots were hired with as little as 250 hours. The federal mandates are also considering more rest time for pilots so new pilots are needed to fill that scheduling gap.
"The airlines are going to have to cut back somewhere, in my opinion they're going to cut back in the regional airlines," Bidwell says.
Smaller regional airlines, like Sky West and Go Jet serve big airlines like Delta, American and United, at airports every where, and they may be losing their pilots to those big airlines soon.
"The main lines, the big ones, American, United, they're going to take those regional pilots," Bidwell says, "They're just going to suck them up, that's the way it's always been."
As smaller airlines try to get new pilots in, Bidwell says, "They're either going to have to wait for them, or pay them more because they're going to have that experience under their belt."
"The regional airlines are going to have to offset those costs somewhere," he adds.
So travelers could see fewer options at the airport and increased fares.
"It's going to cost more to fly, but it's going to be safer to fly," Bidwell says.
QC airport officials say this is an airline issue, not an airport issue. They tell TV6 if airlines do choose to cut back, dozens or even hundreds of airports that rely on regional airlines would be affected.
But right now they are not concerned.

---- — PEABODY — Right from the opening tip off Bishop Fenwick took complete control, scoring 15 unanswered points before Lowell Catholic got on the board with just over a minute remaining in the opening quarter.
Crusaders coach Adam DeBaggis started substituting early and often, giving all his young players a chance to get some quality playing time in a game they went on to win 44-14.
By halftime Fenwick had built up a 17 point cushion, 24-7 and the starters sat on the bench the rest of the game.
Lowell Catholic is a Division 4 team, but coach Tom Varnum loves to schedule teams like Fenwick to get his players ready for the state tournament.
"Fenwick is a bigger school than us, and they play in a much tougher division," said Varnum after his team dropped to 3-3. "That's why we schedule these games every year; we need to play stronger competition to get ready for the state tournament.
"That's a very good team we faced, and they are also very physical and well coached. That's what my girls need, and I liked the effort they gave all game. We didn't shoot well, but holding them under 50 points was one of our goals. We need to get more aggressive, especially against aggressive but clean teams like Fenwick. We're small, and we have to work on that. I liked the way my team got more confident as the game went on. The girls never quit, and we're going to play a lot better after going up against a team like that."
Three players led Fenwick with six points apiece, and 13 different girls figured in the scoring. Kelsey Wilkinson, Colleen Corcoran, and Sydney Brennan all had six points. Corcoran and Brennan are both freshmen, who came off the bench to contribute.
Brennan hit two treys in the third quarter while Corcoran was a force in the middle with six blocked shots. Melissa MacKenzie, another ninth grader, had three points.
"We used everybody which was nice," said DeBaggis after his Crusaders improved to 6-2 on the season. "I don't know if a game like this is going to help us get ready for St. Mary's (on Monday), but it's good to give the starters a long rest. They got mentally prepared for the game, but then got some rest which is good.
"We have some really good freshmen, and they are starting to play well at a higher level and have some confidence. Brennan has great control for a freshman, and she hit those two big bombs. Corcoran is tall, very aggressive, and fast. She's not afraid to mix it up in the middle, and it was great to see her block those shots."
Fenwick is always tough in its bandbox gym and dominated play right from the start with excellent defense and full court pressure that caused turnovers. That stifling defense was especially good in the third quarter when a combination of mostly freshmen and sophomores held the visitors to just one point. Corcoran grabbed a rebound and put it in, and then hit a buzzer beating layup to put her team ahead by 29 heading into the final frame.
"We have a good core, and a lot of good looking freshmen," said DeBaggis. "Our JV team (51-33 winners) is mostly freshmen. They're well coached, and they really get it. I think the next few years are going to be very exciting for us.
"Now we've got to get ready for St. Mary's which is a big one for us. They're undefeated, and we know we have to play our best to beat them."

Saw this on Sactown Royalty and thought it might be a good idea.
Post a trade, and we can discuss the merits of the trade under that particular thread (keeps the chatter in one location.) Might save us from having 65,234,ies,456,234.2 Trade threads.
For instance: http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=d2ptr8r
They get Zeller (a professional player/non head-case) on the cheap for the next 4 years. They get Luke Walton (expiring) to replace John Salmons (and his contract). We give them their pick back, we give them the Lakers/Heat pick (depending on how that works) and a future pick. This gives us Andy/Cousins/TT rotation. Andy can play PF with Cousins or C with TT.

My question is to understand if it is possible to implement an SMS application on a nokia phone which does not support WMA for default.
I have read the "Characteristics of Nokia Java-Enabled Phones_v1_0.pdf" where there is a table to show all the JAVA APIS supported by each phone. Here the only phone which support WMA is the 3650 phone but I'd like to create an application to run into 7650 too.
My idea is to implement a MIDLet SUITE where I'll include all project classes and all WMA classes too.
Any suggestion and idea ?
Thank u all.

Perloff says that Bryant is a bad pick because Dallas has a woefull record evaluating WR's and dealing with character problems.
His reasoning is Roy Williams, Pac Man Jones, and Tank Johnson. Granted Perloff is just a talking head talking, and his three examples are ugly. However, for a team that can't evaluate WR's, Mr. Perloff seems to forget Patrick Crayton and Miles Austin. I think the issue is Jerry not being good at trading for a #1 receiver. Both times he's done it, he's failed in spectacular fashion (Galloway and Williams). The next time Jerry wants to trade for a #1 receiver somebody better kick him in the grapes, double-quick!
The Pac Man/Tank experiment was low risk/low reward. Pretty much a wash. They had trouble with the law. Bryant is not in that category of bleep-ups. Dallas' dealing with Tank and Jones was as good as or better than every other club.
So because of this, the WR every draft expert, personnel guru, and scout were raving about is sure to be a bust. Puhleeze. I'm going on record as predicting 700 yards receiving and 6 touchdowns for Bryant in 2010.

"States in Transition, Constitutional Engineering and Political Science Research"
February 9-14, 2014
This one-week workshop will be held at the American University in Cairo, Egypt. APSA will cover all costs of participation (including travel, lodging, meals, and materials). The workshop will be led by John Huber (Columbia University, USA), Nolan McCarty (Princeton University, USA), Nadine Sika (The American University in Cairo, Egypt), and Bahgat Korany (The American University in Cairo, Egypt) and focus on the theme of "States in Transition, Constitutional Engineering and Political Science Research."
A one-week follow up workshop will take place in June. Details to follow.
February Workshop: "States in Transition, Constitutional Engineering and Political Science Research"
The program will focus on two substantive questions about democracy. The first concerns democratization: What is a democracy, and what are the factors that can cause countries to transition between authoritarian and democratic forms of government. The second concerns constitutional engineering: What are the trade-offs with different institutional forms when creating or changing a democratic system. For example, what is separation of powers and how does it matter if one chooses a presidential vs. parliamentary form of government? What are different ways of conducting elections and how does this choice influence the way that the democracy will operate and the types of policies it will produce? What are the special challenges associated with democracy in divided societies?
The workshop will also have a methodological component. To engage the contemporary political science literature on democratization and constitutional engineering, one must know some basic concepts in quantitative data analysis. One needs to know how to use data, for example, to test arguments about the effects of proportional electoral laws on ethnic conflict or on redistribution. So while engaging about democracy, participants will also be learning about how to use data in social science research in a way that is intellectually connected with the substantive questions of the workshop. Finally, while engaging democracy and data analysis in social science research, participants will be introduced to experts on democratization efforts taking place in several countries of the Middle East, providing them with an opportunity to learn about the facts on the ground in these countries, and to build networks of scholars who share their research interests.

News: UPDATE: Nicki Minaj Breaks Silence On Mitt Romney, President Obama's Comments
Monday, Sep 10, 2012 4:51PM
Young Money star Nicki Minaj has finally stepped up to address the hype surrounding her "Mercy" remix guest feature verse and reacted to President Obama giving his take on her Mitt Romney proclamation.
Nicki resorted to her Twitter page and confirmed she merely joked about voting for the Republican presidential candidate.
"Ha! Thank you for understanding my creative humor & sarcasm Mr. President, the smart ones always do... *sends love & support* @BarackObama," she tweeted Monday (September 10).
"Awesome! Now I can tell my grandchildren that the 1st black President of the United States took the time to address a Nicki Minaj question"
"Thanks haters! Lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooo. #BarbzWinAgain ahahhahaahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" (Nicki Minaj's Twitter)
Hours prior, reports of President Obama's reaction to her comments circulated online.
"You know, I don't know if they really listen to Nicki Minaj that much. But let's face it, they are now more hipper than me," President Obama said when asked if his two daughters listen to Minaj's music. "There's a certain point where your kids get old enough, where they're just hipper than you are and you know, [First Lady] Michelle and I, for folks 50, or folks says, likes to point 'close to 50', she's not 50 yet, we try to keep up and so we've got a nice hip-hop collection on our iPods. ... [Nicki's song?] Yeah, I'm not sure that's actually what happened. But I think she had a song on there, a little rap that said that but she likes to play different characters. So I don't know what's going on there." (Power 95.3)
Despite the hype, recent reports claimed she could not vote as of late week.
If Nicki Minaj makes the decision to endorse Mitt Romney in the forthcoming election, she may want to take care of something first: registering to vote. Minaj was flooded with media clips Tuesday (Sept. 4) when a snippet from her lyrics on Lil Wayne's Dedication 4 mixtape revealed that she is a Republican and voting for Romney. The line may have been blown out of proportion but in an age when personal information is just a Google search away, the 29-year-old was quickly exposed for her voting past, or lack thereof. As it turns out, in the three states where she's lived, Minaj is not registered to vote. Having resided in Georgia, New York and California the Young Money Barbie never seemed to find the time to fill out and mail in a registration card, or do it online. (Hip Hop Wired)
On the new "Mercy" remix record, Nicki raised eyebrows by appearing to co-sign President Obama's Election Day opponent.
"I got more money, in in my f*cking purse /Court side, you in the C Section," she raps, "I'm with them bloods you you with the C Section /In Malibu I'm bout a sea section /And all these b*tches is my sons, yeah C-Section /I'm a Republican voting for Mitt Romney/You lazy b*tches is f*cking up the economy /Out in Miami I be chilling with a zombie /Diablo Alejandro de Mello Gandhi" ("Mercy" Remix)
Check out President Obama speaking on Nicki Minaj below:

With Toast 9's groundbreaking support for AVCHD and Blu-ray video disc burning, I decided it was finally time to hop on the Blu-ray bandwagon and spring for a recorder, even if Apple isn't yet building them into new equipment. Like a lot of video buffs, I have a spanking new HDTV and an AVCHD camcorder, and want to be able to show off new family movies in all their high-def glory...
So I started shopping around, and found several external Blu-ray recorder options (external drives will be required for all but Mac Pro owners, a complete list can be found on EmediaLive.com). But even the cheapest was $599, almost as much as my state-of-the-art camcorder. And media is expensive too, from $15 for a 25GB write-once disc, all the way up to $50 for a 50GB rewriteable. I started having second thoughts about how much I needed that Blu-ray recorder right this minute...maybe I should wait till prices come down more (which they will).
Imagine my delight, then, when I found out that with Toast 9 and the HD/BD Plug-in, you don't even need a Blu-ray recorder to burn high-definition AVCHD discs that will play right in your set-top Blu-ray player or PS3! Toast can burn HD video onto regular DVD media, with the DVD recorder you already have.
But just how much HD video can you fit on a DVD? After all, Blu-ray discs can hold up to 50GB, whereas dual-layer DVDs hold only 8.5GB. Fortunately, the AVCHD video compression format is pretty efficient, compared to the space-eating DV format used by standard-definition MiniDV tape camcorders. The highest quality AVCHD bit rates currently available in HD camcorders is about 17Mbps, or 8GB per hour. Most AVCHD camcorders record at lower bit rates. So you should be able to fit approximately an hour of home movies on a dual-layer DVD that will play in your Blu-ray player. That's plenty for your average home movie.
Toast 9 makes importing video from your AVCHD camcorder "drag-and-drop" simple with its integrated Media Browser. You just drag and drop video from your camcorder to the Toast window and you're done! You can also crop and trim your AVCHD clips, and arrange them in the order you'd like them viewed. You won't need to touch iMovie '08 unless you want transitions and special effects, so using Toast 9 greatly speeds up the time from camera to disc.
I'm off to try it all out right now, using the dual-layer DVD recorder already in my MacBook Pro. In the meantime, what are your experiences with AVCHD and Blu-ray?

The Winchester Model 94 Short Rifle in 30-30 Win, favorite of many hunters and shooters, the Short Rifle was fast to the shoulder, quick-swinging, lightweight and a pleasure to shoot. It was a favorite of the range rider who could snatch it from his saddle scabbard and fire faster than prairie lightning. The new Winchester� Model 94� Short Rifle has a compact 20" deeply-blued round barrel and a straight grip walnut stock. It has a rifle-style forearm, black grip cap and a full-length magazine. It�s drilled and tapped for scope mounts, and a hammer spur extension is included with the rifle. The sights are traditional with a semi-buckhorn rear and a Marble Arms� gold bead at the muzzle.
With the new Short Rifle Model 94 there�s a lot of fun waiting in the saddle, in the field or at the range.

"Cedar, sandalwood and spice notes lead off, with cherry, currant and rhubarb flavors underneath. Linear in profile, with a firm base of tight-grained tannins, this lingers beautifully on the finish. Persistent from beginning to end, this just needs time to expand. Best from 2016 through 2027." -Rated 94, Wine Spectator
"The 2010 Sassicaia Bolgheri Sassicaia brings back some of the brambly rosemary and wild Mediterranean brush that was missing in 2009. This will greatly appeal to enthusiasts of Sassicaia's trademark elegance. The wine shows extreme purity that brings its many beautiful aromas into startling focus and clarity. Lingering tones of black fruit and Oriental spice add subtle shades at the back. The wine mostly certainly shows its pedigree in the exciting and beautifully balance manner it evolves in the glass: It tells a new story each time you return to observe the bouquet. This is the harbinger of cellar longevity. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2040.
The buzz is back. Italy's most iconic wine estate – the ground zero for all fine wine made in the country today – has entered an exciting new chapter with a renewed sense of purpose." -Rated 96, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

[Note by River City Rage, 05/23/08 3:11 AM EDT ] Clodknocker was a participiant in the recent Wuerffel Benefit Luncheon at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium. He was kind enough to write his observation and thoughts on the event for us. On behalf of everyone at Big Cat Country, thank you for writing this!
The Luncheon was held at the Touchdown Club at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium on Thursday May 15th. Former Quarterback Danny Wuerffel was humble, yet well-armed to reveal his strengths on the football field that made him a Heisman Tropy winner after leading the Florida Gators to four straight Southeastern Conference Championships, and defeating the Florida State Seminoles in the Sugar Bowl for the consensus National Championship. He had a supporting cast of former standout Gators present; Kerwin Bell, Chris Doering, and Shane Matthews. Former Gators and present Jaguars, Reggie Nelson and Mike Peterson, were also listed as being present.
An ESPN video showed an interview with Danny and the Desire Street Ministries . Danny started working with the minisitry after being drafted by the New Orleans Saints in 1997. Jack Del Rio was the Strength and Conditioning Coach at the time under Head Coach Mike Ditka. Living in New Orleans, Danny saw the poor conditions that the childern lived in just a few blocks from the Super Bowl, where he played football. He discovered Desire Street Ministries, which was founded by Mo and Ellen Leverett in 1990.
Mo started by volunteering to coach football at Carver High School. He also led Bible studies and tutored football players. In 2002 the Desire Street Academy was established, and by 2004, a staff of 50 did mentoring and tutoring, led Bible studies, and held summer camps. A pediatric clinic was also set up and Danny joined full-time when his 7 year NFL career was over. Shortly afterward ,in August of 2005, Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans destroying the Wuerffel family home and flooded all the minisitry's buildings. Along the coast of Louisianna, Mississppi, and Alabama, over 2,000 were killed with over $81 billion in damage. Many of the 190 students in the academy are still missing. It relocated at a Florida camp with only 80 students. Then in 2006, it moved to Baton Rouge as a boarding school for junior and senior high African-American males displaced by the Hurricane.
Danny is now the Executive Director of Desire Street Ministries. Coach Jack Del Rio told us that he was on the New Orleans Saints' coaching staff when Danny was drafed. They grew to know each other through Bible studies. After the luncheon, Steve Pajcic, a Florida State Alumni and local Jacksonville Lawyer gave Danny $100,000 for the ministry. Steve's donation would match one made by his brother Gary, who passed away in 2006. Gary was the Quarterback for the Florida State Seminoles for three years. His donation, as well as his brothers, illustrate that the charity and generosity knows no football rivlalry.
[Note by River City Rage, 05/23/08 3:19 AM EDT ] It's fantastic to see our Jaguars representing the city and the community well with their involvement with Desire Street Ministries. There's enough bad news about player misbehavior out there that it's nice to read something nice.
Once again, thank you Clodknocker for posting this!
