As I explained when looking at Florida, there is one, primary driver in determining the animosity I feel toward other teams: losing. During my formative years, we didn't do any of that to Georgia...so I didn't feel strongly toward the them. It was just one of those series where you expected something good to happen for the Vols, something terrible to happen to the Bulldogs, and that was that.
Unfortunately for us as fans, that all changed in 2000. We lost to Georgia for the first time since 1988. And then we lost again in particularly terrible fashion. That was followed by another loss...and another one. All of a sudden, we could no longer count on beating up on our neighbors to the South. It was a shock to the system and my view of UGA has been tainted ever since.
Fortunately for the sake of this post...4 straight losses + some difficult relatives = instant rivalry! Put simply: I don't like Georgia at all. I'd put them in my top 3 with Florida and Alabama for most despised teams despite the overall win-loss record in the last 20-ish years. There have been more good moments than bad in my lifetime, but some of the bad ones have been really, really bad. My highest and lowest moments can be found below the jump.Bad: The 2000 season figured to be something of a transition year for the Vols, and indeed it was. A close win over Southern Miss gave way to the Jabar Gaffney Game. The 70-3 undressing of Louisiana-Monroe was followed by an enthralling, though ultimately disappointing, overtime game in Baton Rouge. As I rolled into Athens for the 3rd straight time, I didn't really know what to expect from the game. It was a chilly night, so we bundled up and hiked to the absolute last row of the stadium. I don't remember too much from the game itself, but the ending is something I'll never forget. As the clock hit 00:00, the fans just poured onto the field. Neither the goalposts nor the hedges made out too well. It was surreal to see that emotional eruption from 90,000 people...in that moment, I had some idea of what it was like to be a Florida fan in Neyland Stadium on September 19, 1998.
Rather than take this loss lying down, though, the 14-year-old me opted to be obnoxious. I chose to hold my head high, shed the jacket to reveal my UT t-shirt, and walk out of Sanford Stadium in a blaze of orange glory. I was razed mercilessly on the way out. I listened to chants of "It's great to be a Georgia Bulldog." I bathed in the cascade of "0 and 3 in the SEC." I didn't care. I just wanted to remind everyone there that our record in the last 11 games against them was 10-1. Why I thought this was a good idea...I still don't know. But I did it and don't regret it.
You would think the loss ended there, right? It didn't. Remember those difficult relatives I alluded to earlier? They weren't about to let it go. On Christmas Day 2000, I sat in my grandparents' living room blissfully unaware of any danger that might be lurking under the tree. Eventually, the time came for me to open the present from my aunt and uncle, the UGA alums. They give solid gifts, so I was excited to see what it would be...at least I was until I saw the wrapping. It was the front page and sports section from the AJC the Sunday after game...I was bombarded once again by images of UGA's first victory in more than a decade. And what do you suppose I found inside the box after disposing of the paper? The Georgia highlight film for the 2000 season complete with Larry Munson's "best" calls. And you wonder why I don't like Georgia.
Honorable mentions: 2001 (I wasn't there, but c'mon, it's the Hobnail Boot), 2003 (I WAS there and Jabari Davis is still on my crap list for this)
Good: While the 1998 season turned out to be special, I'm not sure we knew it yet in the 2nd week of October. Yes, we'd finally beaten Florida, but we hadn't done much otherwise. Donovan McNabb had run all over us, we'd beaten up on a bad Houston team, and we'd almost blown a 17-0 lead against a bad Auburn team that destroyed Jamal Lewis' knee. I didn't expect us to win and neither did Vegas as the Bulldogs were the favorite. Gameday was in town and I remember watching Corso don the bulldog head while grabbing lunch at an Athens eatery. I think the good vibes started at that moment.
I'm sure this can be said of any SEC fanbase when their team is good and they expect to win, but the Georgia fans were particularly riled up and cocky for this game. Even though I was only 12, there were a lot of choice words lobbed in our direction as we entered the stadium. I've never been one for trash talk and have always preferred to let the play do the talking for me. The Vols' defense did a lot of talking in the game. Quincy Carter? Amateur. Champ Bailey? Chump. We absolutely owned the Dawgs on this day, and it was awesome. We started taunting the UGA fans who left at the start of the 4th quarter with us up 22-3. Many UT fans, including my dad and me, made a beeline for the Gameday set once the game ended. "Foooooowleeeeeeer" we chanted. "Wrong again, Corso, wrong again!" we exclaimed. We even bought one of those little cardboard signs with the score of the game so I could rub it in the face of the UGA relatives (ok...maybe I had it coming a little bit). This win is absolutely one of my favorites of all-time.
Honorable mentions: 2007 (pure domination from start to finish on both sides of the ball and maybe the last peak of the Fulmer era), 2009 (I drove home from Richmond on a whim to attend this game, I got my picture taken with Bruce before the game, and Crompdaddy put the icing on the cake), 2004 (only saw it via TV, but it felt good to finally beat them again)
What games stand out in your mind from previous encounters with the Bulldogs? Share them below and let's prepare to send the Dawgs to 1-5. Whoo!
P.S. I wrote this while wearing my UT snuggie. That has to mean good things, right? :)

This particular book is a newer version (1988) of a true book no longer in print (Nurse and Spy in the Union Army - 1860's.) Emma disguised herself as a man in order to serve in the army. Her ability to disguise herself allowed her to cross enemy lines multiple times in various disguises as a spy.

The Private History of a Campaign that Failed
By Mark TwainIt would be almost impossible to produce a humorous account of the Civil War (or any war for that matter.) But leave it to Mark Twain to do just that. The Private History of a Campaign that Failed is a short, funny, fictitious account of a group of fifteen soldiers from a Hannibal, Missouri that form their own company. I'll let you guess from the title how successful of an outfit they were. This story is in stark contrast to Red Badge of Courage, yet touches on some of the same themes; albeit in a much more lighthearted manner. The closing paragraph has a valuable conclusion about the soldiers on both sides of the conflict.
One of several short stories in Humorous Stories and Sketches.
Read on-line from Classic Shorts.
A Century of ChangeIn addition to the American Civil War, the years of the 19th century brought many changes to nations, communities and families. Find more 19th Century Literature to see what life was like for your great-great grandparents.

Why is it that the Grizzlies can never seem to get a win in Houston at the Toyota Center? Is the arena built on some sort of ancient zoo site where grizzly bears were ritually sacrificed? Is it just because the Grizzlies sent Shane Battier there in exchange for Rudy Gay?
We may never know. What we do know is that the Grizzlies need to win out if they want to get to the third seed, and it doesn't look like that's going to happen, especially if the Nuggets keep somehow refusing to lose basketball games.
At any rate, look for Tony Allen to turn off James Harden's water (again) (again) and for Jeremy Lin to get the ball swiped away from him at every possible opportunity by the surging Mike Conley, who's had 20 points the last 5 games.
Let's talk it out!

Moon and Robinson residents who are waiting for garbage pickup will be serviced soon, according to Waste Management officials.
Lori Casa, spokeswoman for Waste Management, said collection services have been delayed in various service areas, including parts of Western Pennsylvania. Both Robinson and Moon contract with Waste Management.
"In some cases it's due to severe weather conditions or the holiday," Casa said.
Landfills in Washington County closed because of the snow, causing garbage pick-ups to run behind schedule.
Robinson Township issued an announcement that remaining trash pick-ups for its routes will be handled today.
Any trash that hasn't been picked up, will be hauled soon and the schedule will be as normal again on Monday, Jan. 7, officials said.

1. THELONIOUS MONK QUARTET: Thelonious Monk Quartet With John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall (Blue Note) Monk on top of the world, Coltrane in the throes of discovery, and each inspiring the other's best efforts.
2. JOHN COLTRANE: One Down, One Up: Live at the Half Note (Impulse) The Coltrane Quartet at its most ferocious, especially on the blistering title track.
3. PAUL MOTIAN/JOE LOVANO/BILL FRISELL: I Have the Room Above Her (ECM) Motian's apparently simple compositions are fodder for exquisite chamber interplay, and his drumming suggests the crawl of lengthening shadows.
4. VIJAY IYER: Reimagining(Savoy) Pianism is one reason to pay heed to this quartet outing, Iyer's strongest yet. Another is his rhythm concept beguiling, befuddling, and legitimately new.
5. ROSCOE MITCHELL QUINTET: Turn (RogueArt) Gripping inside-out miniatures from an AACM elder, with a heavy next-generation crew.
6. CUONG VU: It's Mostly Residual (Artist Share) As trumpeter and composer, Vu favors darkness and warmthwhich explains why this album provides such a hospitable setting for Bill Frisell.

Warren Buffett: Tax Dodger?
I'm a longtime admirer of Warren Buffett.
He taught me a lot about stock investing, including the most important thing about it I know: Forget about outguessing the market and focus instead on identifying businesses that are selling for less than they are worth.
While Buffett is a genius at equity analysis, he is no expert on government policy issues. And so it was with regret that I read his New York Times Op-Ed piece this week calling for higher taxes on the nation's top income earners.
I won't bore you with arguments about fairness or job creation or economic growth. The truth is confiscatory tax rates won't change the slightest thing about the national debt crisis we face. And every American should understand why.
Imagine that your 18-year-old son goes off to college for the first term of his freshman year. You are happy to pay for his education costs – room, board, tuition, books, etc. – but you also give him a credit card "in case of emergencies."
When he comes home for Christmas, you discover that he has run up $70,000 on his MasterCard. You hit the roof and demand an explanation.
"Now hold on, Dad," he says. "Before we start talking about how much less I might spend, let's talk about how much more money you're going to give me."
Consider your response – and whether it would be printable in a family paper. Yet Congress makes our hypothetical spendthrift look like a piker.
Most reasonably well-informed Americans know that our $16.1-trillion federal budget deficit is now larger than the nation's GDP. But what most don't realize is this figure doesn't include the unfunded liabilities for Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and the Prescription Drug Benefit. That's another $121.6 trillion. Combine the federal budget deficit with the unfunded liabilities for current entitlement programs (excluding ObamaCare) and it comes to a mindboggling $1.2 million per taxpayer. (To understand how this fiscal mess is already affecting you – even if you don't realize it – click here).
Some will argue that this is exactly why we need to stick it to the ultra-rich, an approach that has clear populist appeal. But here's a bit of perspective. Less than a hundred years ago, the nation's richest man, John D. Rockefeller, could have written a personal check and paid off all the entire national debt, every penny accumulated since 1776. Today the government could confiscate the entire net worth of the nation's wealthiest man, Bill Gates, and it wouldn't pay six weeks' interest on the national debt.
Our elected misrepresentatives have spent so recklessly, promised so promiscuously and behaved so immodestly, that raising the revenue required to meet future outlays isn't just difficult, it's impossible.
Writing in The Wall Street Journal this week, former Congressional Committee Chairmen Chris Cox and Bill Archer note that even if the government confiscated the entire adjusted gross income of every individual and corporation in America, it still wouldn't cover U.S. entitlement obligations. Yet the first order of business according to President Obama, Senator Reid and Mr. Buffett is not to reform entitlements or rein in spending but to raise tax rates? You might as well try bailing out the Pacific Ocean with a teaspoon.
Congress has a world-class spending addiction, but then so do most other Western democracies, including Canada, Britain, Western Europe and Japan. In every case, politicians on both side of the aisle have learned that promising lush government benefits paid for by "someone else" is a big winner at the polls.
As for the current fiscal cliff negotiations, the Congressional Budget Office estimates that raising the top marginal tax rate to 39.6% - as Obama proposes – would generate approximately $70 billion a year. That's not an inconsequential sum. But it won't come close to fixing this year's $1.1 trillion federal budget deficit. Where would we get the other $1.03 trillion?
Finally, it's also interesting to note that while Warren Buffett feels strongly about raising taxes on "the rich," he has done a masterful job of avoiding them himself. As he notes in his New York Times piece, past taxes on dividends ranged as high as 91%. But Berkshire Hathaway has never paid a dividend, so Buffett has never paid a dime in dividend taxes on his own multi-billion-dollar holdings. And he has sold few shares, so he has avoided paying capital gains, as well.
He won't be selling those shares and paying taxes on them down the road, either. He has pledged most of his fortune to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. That's certainly a worthy thing to do. However, his contribution came with a single string attached. The donation is contingent on charitable contributions remaining tax deductible.
In short, when it comes to taxes, you'd be well advised to do what Buffett does. And pay no attention to what he says.
Good Investing,
Editor's Note: Over the past few months, many readers have asked what the tax debate has to do with investing. The fact is, taxes are the biggest cost investors face - and thus the most unyielding attack on your wealth. That's why one of our Four Pillars of Wealth is the effective management of both fees and taxes in your portfolio.
And these four pillars are behind everything we do here at Investment U, and at our sister organization The Oxford Club. For more information on just how successful these core tenets have made us over the past 20 years, click here

United's win on Wearside not enough to retain crown (From Durham Times)
Send us your pictures, video, news and views by texting DURHAM TIMES to 80360 or email us
Sunderland 0 Manchester United 1
5:11pm Sunday 13th May 2012 in Sunderland By Paul Fraser, Chief Football/Golf Writer
A WAYNE ROONEY header on an afternoon of high drama in the Premier League was not enough to secure Manchester United their 20th title in North-East surroundings at the Stadium of Light.
Rooney's simple back post header in the 20th minute from Phil Jones' cross gave the Red Devils the goal they craved against Sunderland that might have left them above rivals Manchester City on the final day.
The Black Cats, whose goalkeeper Simon Mignolet performed heroics in keeping the score down to one, battled away in the hope of avoiding a finish to the season which ended on nine games without a win.
However, Rooney's winner was insufficient as Manchester City staged a remarkable fightback to clinch their first top-flight title in 44 years. Just 20 minutes after Rooney's opener, Manchester City lifted themselves back above their rivals courtesy of Pablo Zabaleta's opening goal at the Etihad Stadium.
Sir Alex Ferguson needed a miracle – and it looked as if it had arrived.
Relegation-threatened Queens Park Rangers levelled through former Sunderland striker Djibril Cisse and then, 18 minutes later, Jamie Mackie put QPR in front to lift them to safety.
Suddenly City required two goals – or Sunderland to haul back United – and they looked like failing to materialise.
But then, in added time, Edin Dzeko pulled things level at the Etihad. And, when the final whistle had blown on Wearside, news filtered through of Sergio Aguero's dramatic winner.
Manchester United were not to be crowned Premier League champions on North-East soil, as they were at Middlesbrough's Riverside Stadium in 1996.

It was a good weekend for the Camden-based AAU SC Ballers (11 and under) and the TBallers (14 and under) basketball teams, which traveled to Dallas, Ga. for the Wolfpack Elite Summer Jam AAU Basketball Tournament. Both teams, coached by Willie Dubose, came away with their respective tournament championships.

Recently in response to Governor Haley's attempt to force the South Carolina State Senate to do her bidding to reform state government, Senator Glenn McConnell in an editorial commentary made a convincing and timely statement with respect to deliberative legislative process and to the respect for constitutional law and the processes of orderly government. While one may not always be in agreement with Senator McConnell, what he had to say in this matter should be a tenet for guiding not only us who serve in government but should be a guiding principle for all of us in going about ...
In the late 1980s, the fight against global communism entered a crucial phrase. President Ronald Reagan publicly pressed Soviet premier Mikhail Gorbachev to tear down the Berlin Wall. Pope John Paul II and Lech Walesa gave Polish workers the courage to rise up against their communist masters. The Velvet Revolution sprang up in Czechoslovakia.

Officials at the Obama White House have been making calls to primary care doctors in this country, trying to make appointments in an effort to find out how difficult it is to do so if they're new patients. There's just one problem: those making the calls aren't identifying themselves and are basically "mystery shoppers" who are trying to ferret information from the doctors and trying to find out whether different answers are being given if they are paying privately or have public insurance such as Medicaid.

When he left Camden High School following his graduation in 2009 to continue his academic and basketball pursuits, Evrik Gary needed only to hop on I-20 East and head for Florence and Francis Marion University. Among the reasons he chose to attend FMU was the school's proximity to his home and family in Camden.

The American Civil Liberties Union and Freedom From Religion Foundation filed a lawsuit against the Jackson City School District in Ohio on Thursday over a portrait of Jesus.
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of a student at Jackson Middle School and two parents, who objected to having the portrait of Jesus prominently displayed in the school's entrance.
"The school system was warned weeks ago that this religious display is an unconstitutional endorsement of religion, and must be removed." said ACLU of Ohio Legal Director James Hardiman. "They have chosen to continue displaying the portrait, making legal action necessary."
Jackson City School District Superintendent Phil Howard said last month the portrait reflected the "culture of our community." He claimed it was legal to display the overtly religious symbol in a public school because it was "a student led presentation."
The ACLU and FFRF saw things differently. Their U.S. District Court complaint claimed the portrait violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, alleging it had "the effect of advancing or endorsing one particular religion."
"Display of said portrait of Jesus constitutes an offensive affront to the religious and moral convictions of Plaintiffs, making them feel like outsiders who are being coerced by their government into observing the religious portrait of an individual identified with one particular religion," the lawsuit stated.

Project X bottle. 5 abv
Pours black with a thin dark brown head. Nose is creamy, light cocoa, roasted malt and hints of chocolate. Taste is thinner than expected; lactose, milkish, not much in the way of a body of a stout. Thin notes of cocoa and mild chocolate malt. Mouthfeel is average, lighter bodied perhaps due to the abv.
Overall the taste profile didn't live up to its expectations for me. A decent beer but not something I'd reach for again, unless draught just to see if its different on tap.

Deep brown colour, more than one finger of creamy tan head, lots of lace all the way down the glass. Smell is roasted with a big helping of chocolate and coffee, light milky-creamy scents, bittersweet. Taste follows the nose roasty with milk chocolate, lactic flavours, coffee grinds with a moderate bitterness, only lightly sweet. Super smooth feel, light carbonation, very creamy. Solid milk stout and on nitro this went down super quickly, great drinkability.

While I think most of us are in agreement that Rolando McClain would be our optimal choice for the Giants first round pick to fill our need at LB with someone who can step right in, we may need to trade up to do so (like our 4th round pick to swap with Jacksonville). I know that a lot of us are so hyped up on McClain that it is McClain this and McClain that, so since we are all McClain happy, I thought I would take the opportunity to show how a young NFLer can take lessons from another McClain...John McClane
- John McClane is the optimal police officer. Even when off duty, he is still in cop-mode and willing to defeat the bad guys at a moments notice. He eats, lives, and breathes cop.
- John McClane listened to the advice of others, but didn't let it be used as an excuse for his failures. Remember the guy on the plane that told him to take is shoes off and walk around with his feet balled up to combat jet lag? McClane didn't whine throughout his defense of the Nakatomi Building that his feet hurt or complain when he had to cross broken glass...he just did what he needed to do to get the job done.
- John McClane adapts to his surroundings. Whether he is getting double crossed by Mr. Evans from Good Times or being run around a city solving riddles and trying to prevent bombs from going off, John McClane learns and adapts. Although fooled by the guy that played Mr. McDowell from Coming to America, who was the one who ended up in the jet engine after fighting on the wing of the plane? Who was the one that figured out that Scar from The Lion King wasn't trying to blow up the gold, but keep it for himself?
- John McClane accepts help when he needs it. Although a very capable person, John McClane knows his limitations. He needed help solving riddles and picking locks from the robber who held up McDowell's in Coming to America and who better to help him with figuring out how to overcome the fire sale than Silent Bob and The Mac from those TV commercials.
- John McClane makes others around him better. Sipowicz from NYPD Blue had his head up his ass about the entire airport takeover, but came around in the end. Nick Fury stepped up and risked life and limb to help the people of New York City and Dean from Waiting manned up, took a bullet, and shot a guy.
- Bottom Line...John McClane gets the job DONE. He's a perfect 4-0 when it comes to thwarting the plans of diabolical masterminds. He won by whatever means necessary, even thinking outside the box. He threw Professor Snape off a building, blew up a whole plane of bad guys with a lighter including Heywood from Shawshank Redemption, had telephone wires crash the helicopter carrying Tiberias from Kingdom of Heaven, and shot through HIMSELF to shoot the killer from Scream 2. The last one being simple, but effective.
If Rolando McClain can be half as good at his job as John McClane is at his while applying the principals stated throughout this rant about John McClane...he will be an NFL beast, which is why we need to move up to be assured that we get him for our team.

The BBA applauds the Justices of the United States Supreme Court for recently granting certiorari to challenges to the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and California's Proposition 8. Because of our long-standing support of same-sex marriage, the BBA will continue to watch with interest as this issue progresses in Washington.
The BBA's first supported marriage equality in 2002 with the independent filing of an amicus brief in the landmark Goodridge v. Department of Public Health. In 2004, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court issued its ruling in the Goodridge case stating that barring a same-sex couple from marriage constituted discrimination against gays and lesbians. Consistent with our position in Goodridge, in 2005 the BBA independently filed another amicus brief in the case Sandra and Roberta Cote-Whitacre et al. v. Department of Public Health et al. The BBA's brief challenged the Department of Public Health's enforcement of M.G.L. c. 207, sec. 11-12 to prevent city and town clerks from issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples residing in other states.
Most recently in November 2011, the BBA signed onto an amicus brief drafted by the American Civil Liberties Union and Edwards Wildman Palmer LLP concerning two cases – Commonwealth of Massachusetts v. U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services, et al. and Nancy Gill et al. v. Office of Personnel Management et al. – that challenge the constitutionality of Section 3 of DOMA heard before the First Circuit. In May 2012, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit agreed that Section 3 of DOMA is unconstitutional.

Inside a home on Nodding Shade Drive, the unthinkable happened.
Upset about his wife's recent divorce filing, Daniel Castrillon-Oreggo shot his children, 8-year-old Susana, and 7-year-old Sabastion as they slept. Then, he took his own life.
With the crime scene tape down, young neighbors stopped by to offer remembrances of their lives.
"It was very sad that somebody would do that to their own children and then themselves, for like, going through a hard time. It's very sad," said Taylor Meacham.
"It's hard to lose somebody and to lose like part of your family. and they were so young, they still had a long life to live," said Emily Medley.
Related content: Hernando man kills 2 children, then himself
It's a set of circumstances that is terribly familiar to one Bay area woman.
Nine years ago, this December, Patricia Parra-Perez's husband Robert O'Mara flew into a rage, killing his kids, 11-year-old Sean and 12-year-old Lauren. O'Mara shot her too, before killing himself.
Parra-Perez survived, and after numerous surgeries, is on a crusade to overhaul domestic violence laws.
"If I could, I would have given my life that day for my 2 kids," she said. "And I'm sure whoever is left without those children right now is a horrific grief journey they got ahead themselves. It is horrible."
Parra-Perez wants state lawmakers to tighten gun laws, and give domestic violence injunctions more teeth.
She is also on another crusade: teach domestic violence victims that exes sometimes use children to get back at the spouse.
"Does it matter to them that it's their own kids? In my case it didn't matter to him. He cold-blooded [sp] killed our children," she said.
Parra-Perez has since remarried, and has 2 young children.

Making Family Mealtime Work for You
Creating this ritual in an age of overbooked kids is no mean feat. Here's how one mom does it.
I often daydream about an ideal dinner. In these admittedly rather mundane flights of fancy, I have a gleaming, serene kitchen (with new appliances!), and I cook lovely, nutritious meals for my family. Stuff like swordfish and pasta in a fragrant tomato-fennel sauce. We would start with Caesar salad, the kind I used to make when it was just my husband and I. I would toast croutons and shower the romaine leaves with a lemony vinaigrette. There would be sautéed broccoli on the side and for dessert a fresh fruit tart (made by me, of course). My husband and I, along with our children, would sit down together to eat, drink, and talk.
I love to cook, and I love my family…so why is it so hard for me to make this seemingly ordinary event, homemade tart or no, a reality?
My own mother worked, she had three kids, she took care of her aging mother, and we all sat down to a healthy dinner that she cooked herself, seven nights a week. Most of the moms that I knew back then, whether they worked or stayed at home, were responsible for all the nightly meals. Now I think: How did Mom do it? When I came home in the evening, something always smelled delicious. Of course, it helped that my mother was home at the dinner hour. She was a social worker, had a conventional work schedule, and was usually back by six. (She was also great at making soups and stews that reheated beautifully.)
I work days and some evenings. Even the nights I'm home are chaotic, as everyone has a different schedule, homework, and after-school
activities. Back in the 70s, when I was a kid, we ferried ourselves around to dance classes and music lessons by bus and subway,
and my mom didn't have to deal with all our extracurriculars. My own workday, because I'm always on some deadline or other,
feels as if it's never over. Don't get me wrong―I love my work (I write and teach); I just don't like my schedule. My husband's
timetable is just as nuts. He almost never eats with the kids, although he tries to get home most nights in time to read to
them before they go to sleep.

Manolo stilettos
Though summers in London can consist of ominous clouds, drizzle, rain, winds and yet more rain, don't let the gloom interrupt arguably the best season of the year. Add a pop of colour to offset the grey with these Manolo Blahnik stilettos. Step into them and sip on a pina colada (adorned with an umbrella naturally) as you're taken away to the tropics, dipping your feet in the turquoise water. The coral applique turns this classic shoe into a show-stopper. Ditch those predictable sandals and grab these when you need a bit of flair and fancy. You'll feel like you're on a never-ending holiday whenever you put these on and who can complain about that?

The Falcons have a modus operandi when it comes to free agency, which I would boil down to this.
Get in, get out.
The Falcons tend to land one major free agent, sign a couple of players to fill essential holes and then move on to draft preparation. There are exceptions to that, of course, but the Atlanta Falcons under Thomas Dimitroff have embraced swiftness. There's little sense in getting involved in bidding wars when you don't have enough cap space to win them, after all.
My expectation is that you will see the Falcons striking quickly, then. They've been heavily linked to Steven Jackson, who is a possibility to fill that hole left at running back by Michael Turner. They still are probably negotiating with Sam Baker, at minimum, if not Vance Walker and Brent Grimes. And they need an established pass rusher like I need a comically oversized bucket of coffee to get through the average day.
The best way to get quality players for a little less is to get them either early or late, before their markets develop or after they've failed to gain significant traction. You can bet the Falcons will try to lock up the big names early, but they may gamble on getting a couple of players cheaper later on.
So don't be surprised if by the time the sun goes down, there's a few faces new and old who have fresh contracts. Who do you think they'll be?

Nashville, TN (SportsNetwork.com) - Tennessee Titans quarterback Jake Locker has been cleared to play in Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers and will make his first start in three weeks, The Tennessean reported Saturday.
Locker has been sidelined with a sprained right knee and hip he sustained in a win over the New York Jets on Sept. 29. He participated in all three practices during the week, however, and the Titans' coaches were encouraged with his progress.
The 2011 first-round pick was initially given a timetable of 4-to-6 weeks to return, and expectations were that the Titans were planning to hold Locker out through its upcoming Week 8 bye.
Tennessee had officially declared Locker questionable on its final injury report.
If healthy, Locker could provide a needed boost to a Tennessee offense that has struggled with backup Ryan Fitzpatrick under center the past two weeks. The Titans have lost both of Fitzpatrick's two starts, with the veteran tossing four interceptions over that span.
Tennessee won three of its first four outings of the season with Locker at the controls. The third-year pro threw for 721 yards and six touchdowns without an interception prior to his injury.
The Houston Texans selected defensive end Jadeveon Clowney first overall in the 2014 NFL Draft.

This is a common excuse that is
understandable. It's commonly understood that a candidate would generally
not do something illegal, since that would jeapordize their chances of being
elected. So, if campaign bandit signs are everywhere in the public realm,
then all bandit signs must be legal.
Political bandit signs must be mounted on stakes and affixed to the ground and only located in public city-owned medians nearing the time of election. No later than 30 days (on average) after an election, they must all be removed from City-owned property before L&I/Streets will begin to respond to complaints. This does not apply to privately-owned property where the campaign previously obtained permission from the private property owner(s) to place signs.
But in case you had any doubts, in most cases
L&I says no,
they are not legal.
If you're really adventurous,
you can look for loopholes in
Just about every bandit sign you see in the public realm for a political
campaign has a problem with it if it bumps against the criteria in Philadelphia City Code,
Title 10. Basically, if the sign is mounted on public property fixtures, like light poles, utility poles, parking meters, trees (private or public), they are not permissible. But for private property, the law says if permission was obtained from the
property owner first, then the sign stays.
Period. End of discussion.
Since permission is needed first, that also means most coroplast signs hanging
on abandoned property and vacant lots are most also likely to be illegal.
It's not very likely that the political candidate obtained express permission
first, so those signs are also blight and must be removed. Unless, of course,
the candidate can demonstrate that permission was obtained, which rest-assured
never happens in Philadelphia.
If it's up in the windows of a home, the side of a building or a privately owned
fence (preferably on occupied property), then it is legal. Everywhere
else, they're not legal.
In case you're
wondering if a politician has ever ran afoul of this rule, there actually is
such a case. Kenyatta Johnson, soon to be 2nd District City Councilman in the
2007-2008 election cycle ordered and distributed 5,000 bandit signs. This
attracted the attention of City Hall, and L&I was dispatched to enforce the
rules in ¶10-1200 on Mr. Johnson.
Because Kenyatta Johnson felt that prohibiting
his bandit signs in the public right of way constituted infringement on the
right to "free and fair elections," he sued the City of Philadelphia in the US
District Court in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
He lost.
See a bandit sign that bugs you? Report it!

So I was was reading the diary today about the Blanton/Milledge rumors and it got me thinking about the way the market in baseball has swung so that league average pitchers are receiving astronomical amounts of money. Pitching is now, more than ever, a highly valued, highly sought, and highly paid commodity. It's also interesting to me that Billy Beane has crafted the A's into a team that excels in pitching and defense. But how true is that? The discussion in the diary I was reading debated Joe Blanton's value with many saying that he was only league average. The topic centered on whether he should be traded for Lastings Milledge, a fantastic center field prospect for the Mets. The reason why the Mets might trade for a league average pitcher like Joe Blanton is because he posted decent numbers in the past couple years in the statistical categories that other teams tend to overvalue (e.g. ERA and wins; 3.53 in 2005 and 16 in 2006, respectively). Basically, the argument is that the Mets might trade a future superstar for Joe Blanton because the Mets overvalue him.
This leads me to my theory. I think Billy Beane is focused on defense not only because it is undervalued among other general managers in the major leagues, but also because it, combined with the spacious confines of the Oakland Coliseum that make it a pitcher's park, artificially inflates the value of the league average pitchers he employs. By having a good defense behind his pitchers to prevent runs from scoring, added to the fact that they already pitch half their games in a park that is more advantageous for them than other parks, the numbers for his pitchers make them look better than they really are. This then inflates even more the value of an already highly valued commodity, giving him chips to play with in the trade market, allowing the possibility of getting a player like Lastings Milledge. I'm not sure Beane thought this out and intended this outcome when he decided to focus on the undervalued commodity of defense (though I wouldn't put it past him), but I think this is the reality of what has happened and he's benefiting from it.
A condensed version of my theory: Beane's focus on defense, combined with playing in a pitcher's park, has artificially inflated the value of his pitchers. As a result, the perceived value of his pitchers is higher than their true value. This increases the odds of him making a trade that is in his favor. This kills two birds with one stone; he not only makes his team better, but he also increases the value of his pitchers.

Hey im getting a new game either those two, I have zelda and want to wait a bit for red steel, and Wario wares. So............ Need for speed or Excite truck?!?!?!?
Hey im getting a new game either those two, I have zelda and want to wait a bit for red steel, and Wario wares. So............ Need for speed or Excite truck?!?!?!?
I own Excite Truck and love it, and just this week I rented Carbon... I'm still undecided about picking up a copy, the controls seem too floppy, and when in certain control modes, the main menu navigation requires you hold the wiimote vertically, it seems poorly programmed in that sense. Excite Truck wins hands down imo. On the other hand, every single NFS game has won my heart in the end, and I'm sure this one will too, it'll just take some time.
I'd still do anything to replace Rayman with Carbon, no doubt about that!

Hosted by Should Be Reading – this is a weekly event where MizB will ask a book/reading-related question, and you answer with your own thoughts on the topic
This week's musing asks…
- What takes you away from your book(s)?
Mostly just myself lol. During the day my little one is at school and my husband is at work. I get a little reading done, but then housework and my college homework calls my name.
Once the little one gets home, it's school work and Girl Scouts, followed by dinner and house chores lol.
Then the mister comes home & I have to get in my husband time!
I normally find it's best to read with NO distractions when the both of them are asleep and everything is done.
Texting. This is my biggest issue. For some reason when I start reading, everyone and their mother wants t text me. I'm not one to ignore anyone; so I respond – and it last forever ahah.

Yesterday's Tomahawk Nation's coverage of FSU's National Signing Day was the culmination of a years worth of hard work by our under-appreciated, strictly volunteer (as in not paid, unlike our competitors) Recruiting Staff. These men perform this service because of their love for FSU and Tomahawk Nation, and to provide our members with what we consider to be the most accurate, most up-to-date, unbiased information and coverage of the future stars for the Seminole football team.
Just like everything I, and everyone else here at TN writes and publishes, the following are just my feelings, opinions, and thoughts. Each author on this site is given the freedom to write about whatever is on their mind, and there are no assignments given, nor are we asked to write about a specific topic. I only mention this fact to let our readers know that I was not asked to write and publish this piece, I am doing it because I think it is the right thing to do. As a person who has been fortunate and lucky enough to experience some success in my professional life, I learned a long time ago that you can never say "Thank You," "Congratulations," and "job well done" enough to the people who truly deserve it.
Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to say Thank You, Congratulations, and job well done to our recruiting staff for the time, effort, and work they have been putting in for the past year, which resulted in the finished product you saw yesterday.
Your TN recruiting staff consist primarily of FSUSOM, DA-2, SWFLNole, and NoleThruandThru. Thanks are also in order to other major contributors to our recruiting efforts such as tdchrisdavis, DKfromVA, RaysnNoles, to all of the other staff members who help make this the best site around and whose names are posted at the bottom of this page, and to our resident Basketball expert, TrueCubbie. But mostly, many many thanks to each and every one of you, our members, who contributes their knowledge, thoughts, comments, ideas, and opinions to Tomahawk Nation not just on the recruiting threads, but to all of the stories posted.
So getting back to our NSD coverage, I think it went pretty damn great. Our front page was awesome, the recruits bio's and film were there at a glance with links, the staff write ups were second to none, everything was well presented and organized, the allocated time slots for comments was a brilliant idea, the updates as LOI were received at FSU were posted in near real time, and each and everyone of our members present yesterday contributed in some positive way.
I also think we learned a few lessons that we will probably use next year, such as posting expected signing times, listing the players whose LOI's have already been received, and important links, at the top of each hourly thread to have all pertinent information on the page you are currently viewing. I am sure any other suggestions you may have would also be welcomed.
I would like to share some final numbers regarding our NSD coverage.
There were 3,654 comments posted on the NSD threads, however we estimate that also approximately 800-1000 comments were deleted for failure to conform to the stricter than usual policies implemented to keep our site running at full speed and capacity. I am proud to say that only 6 members were temporarily banned for repeatedly failing to follow the more stringent rules and all have since been reinstated. Thank you all for behaving as well as can be expected on a day that for most of you must have felt like it did for me yesterday and on that very special Christmas years ago when I woke up to find Santa had finally brought me what I really wanted, my very own Malibu Barbie Dream House and the Pink My Little Pony that made me the envy of every little girl in the neighborhood. (TMI?)
From our Sitemeter at the bottom of the page, we learned that we had 36,728 unique visitors yesterday who came to Tomahawk Nation for the best National Signing Day coverage, and those visitors performed 129,270 page views here on our little site. Thank you all of your loyalty.
Finally, I would be remiss if I did not thank FSUncensored for putting this little dog and pony show together for our amusement, and for the hours and hours of work he puts in every week to make this, bar none, the best and the #1 FSU Sports Digital Media Site anywhere on this planet.
