Don't bother looking for anything strikingly original. Spalding is a synthesist, not a ground-breaker. But from the outset, "Radio Music Society" reveals her pop instincts, jazz sensibilities and social awareness with ingenuity. "Radio Song," a summery ode to rush-hour relief ("This song will keep you groovin', keep traffic groovin' ") is the opener. It's a simple, lighthearted lyric wed to a sophisticated arrangement that borrows freely from a variety of jazz, pop and Latin traditions. It's also the first of several reminders of how Spalding, like the jazz-savvy Joni Mitchell before her, is capable of creating radio songs that have some musical heft.
Other engaging tunes follow suit. "Cinnamon Tree," with its insinuating electric bass lines, perfectly suits Spalding's lithe soprano. Saxophonist Joe Lovano helps soulfully rejuvenate Stevie Wonder's "I Can't Help It," while Spalding's torchy ballad "Hold on Me" radiates a brassy, blues-tinted allure. Thanks to Lovano and other jazz heavyweights, including drummers Terri Lyne Carrington, Billy Hart and Jack DeJohnette, Spalding is in excellent company throughout.
Ironically, some songs that stand out on "Radio Music Society" aren't apt to snare widespread airplay. "Land of the Free" is inspired by the plight of Cornelius Dupree, who served 30 years in prison after being falsely accused of murder. It's a stirring interlude, as is "Vague Suspicions," a commentary on war, religion and the media. Saxophonist Wayne Shorter, a hero to both Spalding and Mitchell, is represented by "Endangered Species."
Spalding contributes a cautionary lyric about ecological abuse to the imaginatively arranged performance, a showcase for guest vocalist Lalah Hathaway. On the other hand, "Black Gold," the album's first single, is bound to win Spalding a lot of new fans. In addition to offering words of encouragement to African American boys ("Hold your head as high as you can / high enough to see who you are, little man"), it boasts a bright and vibrant chorus.
The deluxe edition of "Radio Music Society" comes with a DVD that features a series of short films inspired by the music. Not surprisingly, the album's socially relevant songs make the most lasting video impressions.

This lady is incredible. She is the most evil, wicked teacher who is on a mission to break anyone's spirit who is eager to learn. Enduring her class was a very bad experience for me, and I would encourage anyone who is debating between the two and four year program to endure the four years. She really should not be allowed to teach.

Two Tigers Named to Tennis All-Conference Team
May 5, 2005
MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Senior Alex Bucewicz and junior James Spence were each named to the Conference USA All-Conference team in a poll of league head coaches, it was announced by the C-USA office, Thursday.
Bucewicz was a second-team, all-conference honoree after capping his four-year Tiger career with an 89-41 mark in singles and a 63-34 mark in doubles. He was 6-9 at No. 1 singles for the Tigers in the spring of 2005, finishing with a 13-10 mark in dual singles for the season. A three-time member of the Conference USA Academic Honor Roll, Bucewicz was named the M-Club Male Student-Athlete of the Week last week. The second-team honor is the first all-conference honor for Bucewicz, who became just the second Tiger in as many years to earn a national singles ranking. Bucewicz was ranked in three different computer rankings for the Tigers, following the lead of current Tiger assistant coach Lee Taylor Walker. Bucewicz was a five-time Conference USA player of the week, including two honors in 2004-05.
Junior James Spence is also earning his first career honor, garnering third team honors in the poll. Spence split time at No. 1 singles with Bucewicz, capping his year with a 13-9 singles mark, including a 5-3 mark at No. 1 and an 8-6 mark at No. 2. Spence suffered a wrist injury in the Middle Tennessee match, but managed to finish with a 7-3 mark in his last 10 matches in singles. He also teamed with White Station's Scott Felsenthal at No. 1 doubles, finishing with an 11-9 mark and earning a national ranking during two ranking periods. Spence and Felsenthal shared one C-USA Player of the Week honor after initially breaking into the national rankings. A member of the Tiger 3.0 Club for the last two semesters, Spence will be one of two Tiger seniors returning for the 2005-06 season. He will be joined by Alex Jago, who battled injuries all year to play No. 4 singles and No. 3 doubles.
The Tigers, currently No. 73 in the country, were guided to a 12-11 record by first-year head coach Paul Goebel. Memphis faced an astounding 12 ranked opponents, including 11 of them on the road. All 11 Tiger losses came to ranked opponents on the road.
Next fall, the Tigers will again host the ITA/Southeast Regional championships at the Racquet Club of Memphis. That tournament has called Memphis home over the past two years and features some of the top ranked players in the country from one of the strongest regions in college tennis.

The drought of 2012 has corn crops dry and shriveled up across the country. As a result, the price of the parched crops jumped 23 percent in July.
Since corn is in just about everything from cereal to soda pop, prices at the grocery store are rising too. The impact isn't just hitting consumers.
"We're affected directly," said Mark Scurlock, the owner of Scurlock's Donut Shop and Eatery in the Capital Towers building in downtown Jackson.
Scurlock said the cost to make his assortment of homemade glazed and chocolate dipped donuts and the variety of other sweet fried favorites is on the rise. Basic ingredients to make donuts like flour and cooking oil come from corn.
"On the cooking oil it has gone up $3 to $4 on a 50-pound cube of oil within the past couple weeks, $3-$4 adds up when buying 3, 4, 5, 6 cubes of fifty pound shortening," Scurlock said.
To help deal with paying the higher prices to make his pastries, Scurlock said he's carefully monitoring how much he's dipping and frying.
"We'll come in and cook a certain amount for each day then as we start selling we'll just have to cook more as needed to keep from having a lot of waste," Scurlock said.
While the drought is spiking prices on the veteran donut maker, Scurlock said he doesn't plan to raise prices. However, if prices did go up, longtime customer Syl Burrell said it wouldn't stop her from buying her sweet treats.
"This is the best product I've ever had in my life, I love coming here," Burrell said.
In addition to corn costs rising, the Department of Agriculture predicts we'll see a hike from 3.5 to 5 percent on all foods next year.

IGE (Internet Gaming Entertainment) is a company which trades in virtual currency and accounts for MMORPGs. One of the main dealers in virtual economy services, members of the gaming community were often critical of IGE, as its services may allow players to break rules in online games.[1]
During its peak time, it had offices in Los Angeles, China (Shanghai), and headquarters & customer service centre in Hong Kong[2][3] It was reformed in 2007 by Jonathan Yantis.
IGE was founded in 2001 by Brock Pierce, a former child movie star,[4] and Alan Debonneville. They met each other while playing Everquest and decided to form IGE. Pierce was the main investor in the company while Debonneville was managing the operations. Brock Pierce was also the co-founder of the controversial failed dot-com Digital Entertainment Network (DEN).[5] Media reports claim that Marc Collins-Rector is a silent partner in IGE.[6] IGE initially used an address in the city of Marbella, Spain, where Collins-Rector and Pierce shared a villa until it was raided by Interpol in 2002.[7][8]
In January 2004, IGE acquired its major competitor, Yantis Enterprises, then run by another secondary market figure, Jonathan Yantis,[9] for $2.4 million and 37% share of the company. Yantis later sold his shares back to IGE in exchange for 22 monthly payments of $1 million due to conflicts and disagreement.
IGE's parent company, RPG Holdings, purchased Allakhazam.com in November 2005,[10] as announced in May 2006.[11] This purchase followed that of ThottBot.com.
During late 2006 and 2007, Debonneville was forced out of the company. Later Debonneville sued Pierce for various reasons related to an investment made by Goldman Sachs a year earlier, which Debonneville ended winning in a settlement.
IGE tried to restructure its upper management team by recruiting new executives. IGE began to lose revenue due to the frequent deletion of accounts involved in trading. In 2007, a lawsuit was filed against IGE by Antonio Hernandez for "substantially impairing and diminishing [player's] collective enjoyment of the game." [12]
During the final months of IGE leading to its reformation, the board of directors decided to sell the company to their former partner Jonathan Yantis.[12] IGE's parent company was then renamed Atlas Technology Group Inc,[13] which is owned by Yantis, while Brock went with Affinity Media.
Affinity Media was said to be one of the parent companies of IGE, though the company no longer has any ownership stake. Affinity Media's senior vice president of business development John Maffei, noted that "we're no longer in that business." [14] Affinity retains control of Allakhazam.com, Thottbot.com, and has since purchased Wowhead.com.[15]
Like all the other in-game currency traders, the vast majority of IGE's revenue comes from buying/selling World of Warcraft gold. Its website traffic, and allegedly its revenues, have been declining since 2006 due to the increased competition from the in-game currency traders based in China and the constant bombardment of anti-real-money trading measures by Blizzard Entertainment, the publisher of World of Warcraft.[16]

Preventing damage to underground utility infrastructure is a priority for utility operators and contractors who excavate, drill and bore in areas where there are existing utilities.
Even so, accidental strikes of underground utility lines continue to interrupt essential services, cause millions of dollars in damage every year, result in serious injuries and sometimes loss of life.
The 830R/T (receiver/transmitter) system is designed to provide best performance at a high active frequency.
Digital Control Incorporated (DCI) has introduced the DigiTrak F5 locating system, the top-of-the-line model of the company's new F Series horizontal directional drilling locating and tracking equipment.
Each F Series model incorporates DCI's successful Eclipse tracking technologies, including DCI's patented 3D antenna technology, target-in-the-box locating and intuitive picture-driven menus.

"Today, people are selecting the project they dive into based on their history," IBM's Carter says. "If I'm an ERP shop, I'll start from an ERP perspective and move out. If I'm a datacentric shop, I'll start from my data view and move out. Only 20 percent are re-architecting from SOA; the other 80 percent are starting with their heritage." What enterprises should be doing, Carter argues, is looking at their processes across the board, and identifying the highest impact opportunities -- such as improving customer satisfaction, enabling better collaboration, or more quickly getting new products to market. "If you try to start with ESB [enterprise service bus], we'll push you to look at your process," Carter says.
"The process you select to start with SOA on is crucial."
As an example of how small process shortcomings can have huge business impacts, she cites a Columbian coffee company that had 17 different ways to label a single coffee bean. "Because they had different ways to qualify it around the world, they couldn't tell if they were in or out of stock -- it was there, but just designated a different way. It seemed like a simple little thing, but it was costing the company a lot of money."
In IBM's component business modeling framework, consultants typically pull together diverse business stakeholders for a rigorous, full-blown mapping exercise. A session with a retail industry client, for example, might include representatives from IT, business administration (HR, corporate strategy, financial planning, and compliance), distribution and warehousing (for logistics expertise), product merchandising, and marketing.
"This is all about governance," Carter says. "At the very highest level of business, most companies are doing it as a business transformation. You need alignment of business and IT, and a set decision-making process. And you need rules for compliance -- everyone will use this particular service."
Just don't expect any magic formulas that can be applied across the board, Forrester's Heffner says. "It's less important to figure out which process modeling method you're using, and more important to ensure that you're getting a rich dialogue between the business and IT," he says.
"Success now is characterized by personality," Heffner argues -- the involvement of self-starters who combine business and IT savvy, create opportunities by making connections, build relationships around a process area, and just make things happen.
"Forget about best practices," Heffner says. "Take bits from here and there ... just enough process modeling, just enough technology. This is not the kind of thing we've had in the industry long enough for it to be programmatized in a way that leads to good outcomes."
Focus too rigidly on either pure process modeling or services architecture, Heffner warns, and you could end up in a methodology boneyard. "Three years ago, somebody drew some maps, and they're not really part of any solution delivery process [today]. At this point, you should be establishing opportunities, designing your business as you're designing your services, understanding how your business will function in the digital world," he says. "You don't want to freeze either of these design points … success is characterized by the dynamics of the process."
Meeting in the middle
The key to a successful process/services mashup is how you execute it, according to analysts -- from methods for resolving conflicts, to grounding your assumptions in specifics, to leaving room for the business-use cases and SOA to evolve over time.

BOSTON (AP) -- Kevin Garnett scored 18 points, grabbed 10 rebounds and remained unbeaten against his former team as the Boston Celtics beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 104-94 on Wednesday night in Rajon Rondo's return from a two-game suspension.
The Celtics improved to 10-0 since they acquired Garnett from the Timberwolves during the summer of 2007. They also won for the 11th straight time against Minnesota.
Boston went 1-1 without Rondo, suspended for his role in a scuffle during a game against the Brooklyn Nets last Wednesday.
Rondo had 17 points and 11 assists. Paul Pierce scored 18, Jason Terry 17 and Brandon Bass 12.
Kevin Love led the Timberwolves with 19 points and 13 rebounds. Nikola Pekovic had 14 with nine boards.

I'm sure you guys who live in the state of Alabama can atest to this better than i can but it sounds/looks to me that the AU Administration and the fan base are in full out panic mode. I heard the AU students had a "rally" at toilet paper corner yesterday.....I have heard so many rumors from a guy who knows the dude that went to school with Leaches baby sisters aunt who once drove through the plains that Leach is the guy....How many times am i going to hear Petrinos name thrown out there before they get that it CAN NOT happen! EVER!
I mean the fans are split down the middle. One side is calling for the BOT's and AD's head and the other is practically rejoicing in the streets. I have actually heard AU's fans admit that their program has been on the decline for the last 4 years! Shocker, it's not like they've been told that about 1,000 times already!
The best thing is the guys at TeT are speechless. I mean they are pissed and they have no idea who will replace Tubbs. Honestly i think they are scared crapless. They see what Saban is doing and they know that Tubbs was the perfect fit for their University.
Go read Dawg Sports article. Its a good one! Ivan Maisel is predicting bad things for the barn and Bama fans are loving every minute of it. Just sit back guys and watch the show. They will tear themselves apart! Its going to get worse before it gets better! Mark my words! Write this down!
Roll Tide Roll!

Christian Legal Education Aid and ResearchBy Ian MacLellan for Christian Legal Education Aid and Research
Christian Legal Education Aid and Research (CLEAR) Kenya represents marginalized individuals in court, teaches legal education in prisons, schools, and communities, and gives legal advice to anyone who needs it. They also pursue public interest cases that highlight larger systematic failures in the justice system. Their larger goal is to make justice the norm across all regions of Kenya.
Last year they won a grant through International Bridges to Justice (IBJ) JusticeMakers Competition for their innovative teaching methods and dreams of a fair world. I was connected to this organization because IBJ wanted documentary journalists to cover the new projects they were helping to fund.
I followed CLEAR's efforts in their Kisumu office, where they have four full-time employees and dozens of volunteers working for equality and legitimacy in the legal system. Their efforts were particularly important in the wake of the 2008 post-election violence, which rocked the city and brought life to a stand-still because it was too dangerous to go outside for simple things like groceries. The two programs I found most interesting were a tribal language radio show on legal issues, and paralegal training of prisoners and prison guards so they can participate in the appeal process and represent themselves.
I was inspired by how much they were able to accomplish with a $5,000 grant, and I tried also to do the most with my two months in Kisumu by going out and searching for other stories of injustice in Western Kenya. The prisoners who were training to be paralegals were also particularly interesting, because a few of them spent much of their day researching legal issues and organizing themselves into law clubs to empower themselves.
I plan to make a book of my experiences in Western Kenya to raise money and awareness for CLEAR.

Re the Feb. 14 article Developer: Tequesta site in downtown Miami is 'hokum': It sounds like when construction workers uncovered an ancient Tequesta site at the mouth of the Miami River, where it is known that they lived for thousands of years, the bulldozers also unearthed the profound ignorance of Eugene Stearns, the attorney for MDM Development.
There is nothing else that could explain him calling the 2,000-year-old settlement "hokum" and "a joke." I hope the site will be preserved and that the joke will be on him.

The downtown Sioux Falls you see today may not have existed if discussions in 2002 didn't lead to the 2015 plan. Now, the area is thriving with no signs of slowing down. All the change started from the input of those who love the area, and those suggestions are being welcomed once again.
"We're really looking to hear anything. We don't want to limit them to their discussions, we want to hear all the topics that they can think about with relation to the individual elements we've established," Economic Development Coordinator Dustin Powers said.
Separating their new plan into 13 subjects, city leaders are now looking ahead to 2025 to see what should change over the next decade. To those in the room, they are just building on an already good thing.
"I've seen it evolve from somewhere people didn't want to go to and just a bunch of hoodlums down there to what it is today, to where everyone wants to come down and do something and there's always something to do," Aaron Bakker said.
"It's full of people; it's full of night life. The businesses are doing well, so it's really come a long way," Chad Hanisch said.
The praise for what exists is high, but there are still some tweaks they'd like to see.
"As it grows, keep it very connected. Ease of getting around, taking care of the pedestrian traffic, the vehicle traffic," Hanisch said.
"So, I'd like to see more availability for us to find out what's going on downtown and to have younger generations come down and really enjoy it," Bakker said.
As the list of possible changes is gathered, the hope is that the results of the 2015 plan are repeated by checking everything off the list, one item at a time.

Improving our understanding of the world in which we live is a core piece of what makes us human. We seek to explore, map, and measure the places around us, and to have deep knowledge of our environment. Over time, technologies to help us with these processes have improved. Where we once had the compass and the map, we now have mobile computing devices, GPS, and large data collection efforts that put the world at our fingertips.
Today, you can determine your location to within a few meters, see image previews of your route before you ever get in your car, and view 3D reconstructions of entire cities. On top of this foundation, has emerged an entire ecosystem of applications that use this data. You can find the closest restaurant, get realtime traffic information for your commute, or view art in museums halfway across the world. In short, the way in which we interact with our world, our environment, and each other is constantly changing.
Project Tango, an effort by the Advanced Technologies and Products (ATAP) group at Google, seeks to take the next step in this mapping evolution. Instead of depending on the infrastructure, expertise, and tools of others to provide maps of the world, Tango empowers users to build their own understanding, all with a phone. Imagine knowing your location to within centimeters. Imagine building 3D maps of the world in parallel with other users. Imagine being able to track not just the top down location of a device, but also its full 3D position and orientation. The technology is ambitious, the potential applications are powerful, and hiDOF is proud to be a core part of the effort to take the next leap in mapping and localization technology.
The desire to use a camera to map the world is nothing new. Many decades of research have been thrown at this problem and, slowly but surely, we've made progress. Many of the techniques used in Project Tango have roots in mapping challenges of the past, Google's Street View cars are one example that comes to mind. The basic idea is to recognize various landmarks in the world (the corner of a certain table, a picture on the wall, etc.) across different images, and to use that information to back out the structure of an environment. This information can be further improved by using accelerometers, gyroscopes, and depth sensors to augment landmark tracking, which improves the quality of the map that you build.
When the ATAP group first approached us at hiDOF, the challenge they faced was to select and transfer appropriate technologies from this vast research space into a robust, efficient product ready to be shipped on a mobile phone. This is an incredibly daunting task. Though there has been research in the space, most Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) software today works only on high powered computers, or even massive clusters of machines. Project Tango, in contrast, requires running a significant amount of mapping infrastructure on the phone itself to provide realtime feedback to users. This introduces two distinct challenges. You must carefully manage both your power and CPU budgets.
Over the last year, hiDOF has applied its knowledge and expertise in the SLAM and technology transfer spaces to Project Tango. We worked closely with the ATAP team and partners around the world to make progress towards a handheld, mapping and tracking device. The ultimate goal is to generate realistic, dense maps of the world. Our area of focus, however, has been to provide reliable estimates of the pose of a phone (position and orientation), relative to its environment. Specifically, we have worked with ATAP to build a system capable of providing drift free, realtime, 6 degree of freedom, localization in typical indoor environments.
There's still a long way to go, but we believe that this technology has the potential for big impact and creative applications. We've already seen Project Tango used to guide the blind, enable immersive gaming experiences tied to the real world, and provide a compact sensing package for a robot. The unique hardware of the device, including a wide angle camera, inertial measurement unit, and depth sensor, opens up many applications on its own, but the combination of this sensor suite with SLAM technology makes for truly endless possibilities.
At hiDOF, we're proud to be a part of this effort, and to work on core components and algorithms of the Project Tango infrastructure. As an organization, we love a challenge, and look forward to continuing to test, improve, and innovate in this domain.
For more technical details about hiDOF's work on Project Tango, check out our case study.

Second Detailed TNA Impact Taping Report [Spoilers]
Posted by
on 02.15.2006
Another report from the action!
Credit: Alan Wojcik & alanwojcik.com
This is the Spike TV/TNA Wrestling tapings to air over the next two Saturday's. On the hard camera was the Destination X banners, with the phrase "Beyond the Ring" underneath the X Division title belt. Speaking of the PPV, I am hoping they will announce some of the Destination X PPV matches, including who Samoa Joe will face in the Ultimate X. David Penzer returned to the ringside area for these shows as the ring presenter, with Jeremy Borash doing the backstage interviews. I must thank the Syrian Slasher for his ability to keep the fans away from my view of the ring. I have seen him wrestle and feel he should receive a tryout with TNA or WWE. I thought I saw "Big Wiggle" Norman Smiley, Mike Modest and Donovan Morgan walking around backstage.
Matches to air Saturday February 18th:
The show began with the new NWA World Heavyweight champion "Captain Charisma" Christian Cage in the ring. Cage said he waited twelve long years to raise the world title over his head in front of the fans. He dedicated the win to people that at one time in their lives held been held back. For eight years he was told he wasn't big enough, he didn't have the right look, that he didn't have the "IT" factor and other insulting things another promotion said about him. Cage ran down several former title holders that he stood in the shadows of right now. Cage put over TNA's move to prime time in April. Finally he focused on the number one contender Monty Brown and his "jungle gibberish." Cage said he wasn't going to be a champion who lived under a glass ceiling and Brown would get the same fair shot he got at the championship.
Jeremy Borash spoke to former champion Jeff Jarrett, Scott D'amore, Gail Kim and Eric Young about the loss of the title to Cage. Jarrett blamed TNA management, Dave Hebner, Earl Henber and I think all of the fans for losing the title. Despite Young's belief that Sting was still around, Jarrett told Borash he will eliminate four of his problems at Destination X. D'amore showed the camera the video Alex Shelley filmed of Jackie Gayda. Jarrett said tonight we would have a "viewing party" later tonight.
(1) Jay Lethal defeated "The Prince of Punk" Shannon Moore and "tTh Messiah of the Backbreaker" Roderick Strong.
Lethal came in energized thanks to a victory at the PPV. At one point everyone attacked the other men and also had very brief partnerships with the other men. All three men were on the ring apron when Moore tossed Lethal over and Lethal landed on Strong's head, sending Strong to the floor in a headscissor. Back in the ring Moore hit Lethal with an Exploder then Strong hit Moore with a half nelson backbreaker along with chest chops. Lethal got the win after he hit Strong with a Full Nelson into what looked like a floatover suplex.
Mike Tenay and Don West spoke on camera as Penzer and So Cal Val tossed out t-shirts to the fans. A background vignette on Ron "the Truth" Killings played; I thought it was good stuff. Borash spoke to the James Gang about their issues with the Latin American Exchange. "Bullet" Bob Armstrong came in and volunteered to be their partner at Destination X.
(2) The Latin American Exchange ("The Notorious 187" Homicide, Machete and Konnan) defeated The Border Patrol (Michael Modest and Donovan Morgan wore outfits with that phrasing on the patch) and Ryan Drago.
This match didn't stay in the ring long and lasted a little longer. Homicide and Machete hit Drago with a top rope bulldog, Steiner Brothers style to win the match. After the match Konnan hit Modest and Morgan with the sock puppet. Then he took the house mic and insulted the fans by saying the Nashville crowd had more class then the Orlando crowd. Konnan told Armstrong to get a wrestling license and he would agree to the match at Destination X.
Borash and Larry Zbyszko spoke to NWA World X Division champion Samoa Joe about his eight month undefeated streak. Zbyszko told Joe he was going to defend the title in the Ultimate X. Joe told Zbyszko that was a mistake since he doesn't play by rules and doesn't like stunts to be pulled on him.
(3) "Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels defeated Austin Aires.
I think this a dream match come true for some fans. Aires went right to work on Daniels' neck, probably still sore from the PPV. Aires dropped the corkscrew elbow on Daniels' neck but got two. Aires charged Daniels but was hit with a modified STO, clotheslines, a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker and an enziguri. But instead of the Angel's Wings, Daniels locked in the Kokina Clutch. I think Aires tapped out but not 100% sure, this could have ended with a DQ. Samoa Joe hit the ring and Daniels fought him off but Daniels' BME met the X Division title belt. Joe placed a chair in the ring and was set for the Muscle Buster when AJ Styles hit the ring and Joe in the back with the chair. Styles and Daniels had words as Styles posed with the title belt.
The history of the Ultimate X video played. They tried to play an interview on screen but it didn't play all the way through.
(4) Ron "the Truth" Killings and Team 3D (Ray & Devon) defeated Team Canada members Petey Williams, "Canadian Enforcer" Bobby Roode and A1.
Before the match the Pit joined the rest of the crowd in chanting "Let's Go Dudley's." The Canadians tried to attack Ray's arm but instead Williams was hit with a double team sideslam elbow drop. Next they dropped Killings onto Williams flapjack style followed by Killings hitting A1 with a sidekick. Killings got too close to the ropes and Roode dropped him on the top one. Team Canada tagged several times beating down Killings but couldn't keep his shoulders to the mat, even allowing Williams to hit his patented O' Canada crotch dance. After surviving all of this violence, Killings hit Williams with a suplex into a modified Stunner and was finally able to tag out to Devon. Team 3D beat down all three Canadians and hit Roode with the "Wassup" Headbutt to the crotch. Killings hit a "Wassup" legdrop to A1's crotch. Team 3D, Williams and Roode fought to the back as Killings hit A1 with the Scissor Kick to win the match. America's Most Wanted hit the ring and beat down Killings. As Harris tried to handcuff Killings he was hit with a GORE delivered by Rhino!
Matches to air Saturday February 25th:
(1) "The Alpha Male" Monty Brown defeated Dylan Night in a real short match where Brown POUNCED the holy crap out of the kid to end it. Brown talked to the camera and Christian Cage. Brown said he went looking for Cage but didn't find him in the male locker room, he found him in the ladies room. Brown ripped apart Cage's ring entrance, ring style and his Unprettier finisher. Cage came down the rampway and reminded Brown that he would get a fair shake at Destination X. Cage and Brown traded geography related jokes before Cage lowblowed Brown in the Bangkok. TNA security and Larry Zbyszko hit the ring to try and calm down the situation.
Borash spoke to America's Most Wanted and Gail Kim about the Destination X eight man tag match and their bout with Rhino and Ron "the Truth" Killings. Jeff Jarrett and Alex Shelley came over telling the audience that Shelley had footage of Sting to show tonight. Tenay and West spoke to the TV audience. Christopher Daniels joined them for commentary.
(2) "The Phenomenal" A.J. Styles defeated "The Messiah of the Backbreaker" Roderick Strong.
Strong thought he avoided a dropkick and went to the ropes but he came off into a Matrix dropkick from Styles. Strong got on the offensive when he raked Styles eyes and hit a half nelson backbreaker for two. Strong took Styles to the mat with a chinlock but Styles refused to submit. Styles hit Strong with abdominal punches but Strong raked his eyes. Styles hit a spinning heel kick and escaped a second half nelson backbreaker. Styles finished off Strong with the Styles Clash. Daniels remained at the broadcast table.
Gail Kim handed Jackie Gayda a bag and told her to put on the outfit that was inside.
(3) Team Canada members A1 & "Canadian Enforcer" Bobby Roode (w/Scott D'amore) defeated the James Gang (Kip James & B.G. James).
B.G. was doing his spiel when Team Canada jumped the Gang. A1 and Roode focused on Kip's left knee. Somehow BG tagged in just as the LAX came down the rampway. Homicide and Machete distracted BG long enough for Konnan to hit him with the sock puppet. Roode hit BG with the Northern Lights clothesline. Just as the LAX was going to beat down BG, "Bullet" Bob Armstrong came down and to the shock of the crowd punched out the LAX. Konnan and Armstrong had words but Konnan left before any additional violence broke out.
(4) NWA World X Division champion Samoa Joe defeated Shark Boy.
Sorry to say but Shark Boy didn't stand a chance as Joe beat the fish food out of him. Shark did get in some offense by attacking Joe's legs. Shark looked like he was setting up Joe for his finisher but was hit with an enziguri. It was followed by the Muscle Buster and the Kokina Clutch.
Gail Kim stood in front of a partition as Jackie Gayda changed into the outfit Jarrett told her to wear. Kim told her to wear the outfit or the footage would be sold on the internet.
(5) NWA World Tag Team champions "America's Most Wanted ("Tennessee Cowboy" James Storm and "Wildcat" Chris Harris) defeated Ron "the Truth" Killings and "War Machine" Rhino.
The Pit was as colorful as ever with their chants directed towards AMW. Killings and Storm began the match but Storm got cocky and Killings put on the Cowboy's hat before tossing him around the ring in various armdrags. Rhino came in and beat down Harris but Killings ended up on the short end as AMW took over control of the match. Rhino and Harris fought over to the announce table while Killings and Storm collided in the ring. Harris and Rhino fought to the top of the rampway. Rhino was ready to GORE Harris down the rampway when Abyss grabbed him and threw Rhino into part of the rampway wall. Harris came back to the ring to join Storm in trying to beat down Killings. Storm hit a superkick and then AMW hit the Death Sentence. Abyss remained at the top of the rampway, standing over the injured Rhino.
Guess I better watch the show because they didn't show the Jackie Gayda footage segment to the Impact Zone fans.
The following were matches taped for TNA's syndicated Xplosion show:
The Diamonds in the Rough ("Primetime" Elix Skipper and David Young w/Simon Diamond) defeated Lance Hoyt and Matt Bentley (w/Traci Brooks.) Bentley was going to superkick skipper when Diamond hit Bentley with a chair. Hoyt picked it up and Bentley thought Hoyt clocked him. The Diamonds hit Hoyt with a double team move. After the match Bentley and Hoyt argued as Brooks tried to settle things down. Hoyt looked away for a moment and Bentley hit Hoyt with a superkick, chair shots and other items. Brooks was definitely as confused as the fans were and reluctantly left with Bentley. Hoyt's forehead was busted open by the Bentley attack and had to be helped to the locker room.
Penzer introduced Frankie Kazarian's favorite NASCAR personality Jeff Hammond to the fans.
Lex (Lex Lovett w/Cassie) defeated Cassidy Riley.
Riley was distracted by Cassie and was hit by Lex's megaphone to win the match.
The Naturals (Chase Stevens and Andy Douglas) defeated Michael Modest and Donovan Morgan when they hit Modest with the Natural Disaster. This was an entertaining match and I hope it gets Modest and Morgan jobs with TNA.
Announced matches for Destination X, Sunday March 12th:
***NWA World Heavyweight champion "Captain Charisma" Christian Cage vs. "Alpha Male" Monty Brown.
***In the Ultimate X match, NWA World X Division champion Samoa Joe vs. "the Phenomenal" AJ Styles vs. "Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels

4/5 rDev +3.4%
Appearance: 1.5 inch head, high carbonation, gold in color, hazy
Smell: banana, coriander, and fresh wheat
Taste: banana, lemon, coriander, and fresh wheat
Mouthfeel: sweet, medium bodied and moderate carbonation
Overall: A really good domestic hefe where the wheat shines. It seems really fresh in the can. Hits all the typical marks in the style as the banana taste is spot on. Easily do a six of these.

4.08/5 rDev +5.4%
Serving glass: Poured from bottle into Weizen glass.
Appearance: Pale cloudy yellow. Looks orange when held away from the light. A relatively aggressive pour plus the high carbonation produces a fast forming foamy head but subsides faster than I would like without much lacing.
Smell: Wheat, banana and only a hint of clove.
Taste: Strong wheat taste with a good amount of banana as well. The clove is pretty light. There is a lingering wheat aftertaste that just barely detracts from an otherwise outstanding tasting Hefeweizen.
Feel: Pretty high carbonation, with a very smooth, creamy body that is fuller than expected. Mostly dry finish.
Drinkability: Outstanding Hefe, up there with Schell's as a top echelon American made example of the style.

3.45/5 rDev -10.9%
Hazy wheat hue unfiltered 100%, beige head fine speckled lacing. Aroma big over ripened banana notes with clove and vanilla exploding on the senses. Flavor has bubblegum sweetness, clove and vanilla, a hint of citrus and malted wheat notes. Big over ripened banana pushes it into the realm of almost cloying, which doesn't settle well with me considering a can of Nebraska Brewing Eos hefeweizen cans in the Burgh will run you around 40 bucks plus tax. Needless to say there's many better PA brewed versions including Yuengling Summer wheat, the mouthfeel on this has some sturdy carbonation big malt layers, sharp wheat/citrus some balance but the yeast phenolics here are out of control with the ripe banana, vanilla, clove notes making it a bit cloying for me. Overall, still easy to drink and a solid American version of a hefeweizen just nowhere near as good as the German versions or Pennsylvania Deutsch population that has carried on the tradition of great hefeweizen.

12 oz can poured hazy golden-amber with a towering, foamy, bone-colored head. Very good retention and lacing.
Aroma: ripe banana, clove, apricot, Spicy.
Flavor: banana; light spicing; light baked bread; apricots; Spent grain in the aftertaste. Slightly bitter.
Feel: Medium body with soft but high carbonation.
O: very enjoyable hefeweizen with great feel and good complexity.

halfway between a regular wheat and a hefe.Decent drinking beer, not the best of the style. Orange coloured body, lacey. Slightly creamy mouthfeel. A little clove,a tad of bannana,understated carbonation and that's a good thing. On tap at The Ginger Man NYC.

4.09/5 rDev +5.7%
Pours a hazed amber with 3 fingers of pearl colored head. Pretty average for lacing & head retention
S: Green bananas & doughyness
T: Green bananas, sweet breadyness pears, slight grassiness, slight metallic hoppyness up front. More green bananas, pears & metallic notes as this warms. Finishes with green bananas, sweet doughyness, pears & a little bit of dryness & cloves
MF: Medium bodied, slight carbonation
This impressed me, pretty well thought out hefe, very drinkable

3.83/5 rDev -1%
On tap @ TJ's (Paoli, PA) on 5/14/11. Served in a pint glass.
Pours a hazy gold, topped with a finger of bright-white colored head. This retains with a thin sudsy look, leaving back some minimal lacing. The aroma is very estery smelling, with notes of ripe bananas and spicy clove. A crisp bready twang of wheat is quite supportive underneath. The yeast really gives this some thickness in the nose.
The taste is a combo of bready biscuits and tight twanginess on the palate, with soft fruit and assertive clove flavors taking control. This finishes lightly grainy with some lingering dry fruitiness. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, with a moderate crispness to the carbonation but this does have a certain amount of heft to it that unfortunately keeps this from being overly refreshing feeling.
This was decent. The yeast definitely added a healthy dose of flavor to this but also held the drinkability back some as well. Flavor wins out though in my book. Get a pint of this if you see it and take your time.

3.8/5 rDev -1.8%
Pours a hazy golden color with a pure white head that settles into a solid ring. Nice banana aroma, with some clove and bubblegum as well. Not much else to say, spot on. The taste starts off with a lemony tartness which is followed by a candied banana flavor and some grains. A bit too sugary and not enough of the yeasty phenols but decent bavarian hefe taste. Light to moderate body with fizzy carbonation. Feels a tad thin for the style. The hefe drinks very easy and is fairly crisp. Good beer to drink outdoors while grilling food. Worth a try but it won't blow you away.

Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a cloudy dark golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of bananas and spices. Taste is the same, some banana, spices, a touch of wheat, highly refreshing and the glass is getting empty quick. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a great warm weather session beer.

On-tap at Nebraska Brewing Co. - Papillion, NE...
Appearance: Very cloudy / hazy golden body presented with a lemon inside of the Hefeweizen glass.
Smell/Taste: Banana, cloves, vanilla. They nail this one right on the head as far as a German style Hefeweizen is concerned.
Mouthfeel: Light refreshing body with plenty of carbonation and a clean, crisp finish.
Overall: On point.

3.9/5 rDev +0.8%
Served on-tap at TJ's.
A: The hefeweizen is a golden color, hazy and clouded over. A finger of white head along for the ride.
S: Wheat, pleasantly tart, along with biscuity breads and banana sweetness. After the still-resonating clove intensity of Penn Weizenbock, a beer of this subtle nature easily gets lost. Late in the game clove returns.
T: Another good hefeweizen, summer's almost here! Sweet banana and tart wheat, more predominantly the wheat, are present throughout. A grassy hop finish is an undercurrent, as are the clove flavors. Biscuity malts are a pleasant support for the wheat. The wheat leaves a dry finish.
M: The mouthfeel is banana and wheat, tart and sweet, with a drying aspect that makes me want another sip. My second run-in with Nebraska Brewing and I like what I taste.

4.03/5 rDev +4.1%
A: The beer is slightly hazy yellow in color and does not have any visible carbonation. It poured with a thin white head that completely faded away.
S: There are light to moderate aromas of wheat and sourness in the nose. Hints of lemon are also noticeable.
T: Similar to the smell, the taste is slightly tart and sour with flavors of wheat plus hints of bananas and clove.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a light amount of carbonation.
O: The beer is very refreshing and easy to drink. The sourness and tartness is unique for the style and makes this rather interesting compared to other hefeweizens.

The Rev. Campbell Lovett, minister of and fire chaplain for the East Providence Fire Department, has begun a new journey in Michigan.
According to Fire Captain Oscar Elmasian, the minister has accepted a new position in Lansing after serving in East Providence for 16 years. Sharon Kay is listed as the associate minister on the church's website.
In addition to providing spiritual aid to members of his church, he also assisted the fire department in times of need, said Captain Elmasian. He would help counsel firefighters after an especially trying emergency situation or respond to the scene of an accident.
"[The chaplain] was a phenomenal support system," he said, adding he helped the firefighters deal with the Sept. 11 attacks. "[Firefighting] is our job, but as human beings it affects us for many years to come. Campbell was one of those guys he could ease the pain, assist us in dealing with it."
He worked with the department for 11 years. He has a wife named Eileen and two sons.

All you Internet viral video directors need to pay attention here. Not only am I in the business of finding clips of people hurting their faces, I'm also a connoisseur. I appreciate the art that goes into filming a dumbass failing at a stunt that he had no hope of performing successfully. So when I say "more slo-mo" and less "victim not writhing in pain," I expect you people to listen and modify as necessary. You think viewers want to see the rider sit up uninjured? Hell no. Edit that shit out. Only keep the camera running if they're writhing in pain and/or bloody.
