I should start by saying that I do believe Bonds used steroids, and that technically no one has proven he did use them. I will cling to that technicality for as long as I can, because I am an unabashed Barry fan and a proponent of "innocent until proven guilty". Though I realize that for many, the evidence is already strong enough to prove him guilty. This is all beside the point, though.
What if Barry hadn't started using steroids? What if he went his whole career without a single injection, balm, or pill? A pure, unenhanced player among many who were decidedly not.
The general consensus seems to be that Barry started using steroids sometime in the mid-nineties, possibly as late as 2000. His career with the Pirates is generally considered steroid-free, but almost all of his Giants campaigns would then have been partially PED driven.
Let's start with some milestones. Without steroids, I don't think he would have broken the single-season home run record. I think his single-season home run totals would drop for every season. But they would still be good. I doubt he'd lose more than ten home runs a season at maximum. Definitely no more than 100 over the course of his 14-year Giants career.
In total, I think he drops maybe sixty bombs and finishes around 700 at the end of the 2007 season. Remember, when he got to San Francisco he was still under thirty and had two 30+ HR campaigns in the last two years. I also don't think his intentional walk totals or OBP would suffer much; he wasn't being walked a lot until 2002, and not a ridiculous amount until 2004. But that 2004 team wasn't the offensive juggernaut previous seasons had produced, so I think other teams would have walked him anyway just because it was easier to pitch around him than let his still-prodigious power and undiminished, incredible batting eye hurt them. I'd say he loses some average as well, since he's not hitting them out with such frequency, but not much. His stolen base totals would probably increase, since he's getting more chances to run the bases with fewer balls leaving the yard.
But this still leaves him as probably the most iconic, powerful slugger in the game. Bonds was so utterly dominant that he could afford to lose those home runs and still be far-and-away the best hitter in the majors. So he still gets called to the witness stand in 2003. He still has to answer the questions about whether he used steroids; there would be no real evidence this time, particularly in regard to his head size, but I highly doubt the grand jury would ignore him just because there wasn't any evidence. They would at least want to talk to him.
This time, of course, he can categorically deny everything since he definitely hasn't used steroids. No obstruction of justice here; he can give clear and complete answers to any questions the grand jury might have.
Would it matter? Would the grand jury believe him? Would they still launch an investigation? I think they absolutely would. I think the clear nature of his answers would light a new fire underneath them; if they can prove anything, they've obviously got him on perjury charges. They don't have to prove that he said he didn't use steroids and that he used steroids, just the last part. The court case becomes easier; it's finding the evidence that will be impossible.
So I think he still gets at least investigated. I'm not sure if he gets tried; I think Ilston would have thrown the case out due to lack of evidence. But he still doesn't get signed after 2007; after being investigated and MLB wanting to keep him out as a token of the steroid era, he hits free agency without breaking Aaron's record (though he passes Ruth). Despite no trial, I think his career ends after the '07 season, this time for absolutely no reason.
What about the media? Do they still attack him and accuse him endlessly? Of course. It's never been only about the steroids with Bonds; he's been singled out because he's the best. If the media just cared about steroid users, then Bonds and steroids would have been more of a local story than a national one; local media would focus on their team's users. The Red Sox' writers wouldn't care about Bonds. And even without steroids, Bonds is probably still the best hitter in the game.
Jeff Bagwell is the other reason I believe this. Bagwell has no connection to steroids at all. There's pretty much no chance he was using. He's got Hall of Fame numbers. But the question remains: will he get in? Bagwell was a HOF player who wasn't using when everyone else was. So people assume he did. Or at the very least they aren't sure, and tend to give some credence to rumor. It's just a case of steroid era+good player = steroid user.
Bagwell wasn't the best player in the game, even if Bonds is removed from the equation entirely. And since I think Bonds would have been the best without steroids, there's no chance he isn't associated anyway. If Bagwell can see his HOF chances at least diminished for no reason other than rumor, Bonds absolutely is assumed to be a user. After all, what sportswriter can resist the obvious idea that since Bonds is better than steroid users, he must be on something himself? It's easily written, since you don't have any sources to talk to, it's sensationalist, it's about the best player on any field.
So without using, I think Bonds is still tagged as enhanced. His disdain for the media and their reaction to that is just pushing him towards the obvious end. I think it would be more speculation and less "look at the size of his head!" but I doubt many writers would go from convinced to unconvinced. They would just assume, as they have with Bagwell, that everyone was doing it so he was too, and his league-leading numbers wouldn't have helped him. For the same reasons, his HOF chances would have been marginalized to the degree that I think he wouldn't have gotten in on the first ballot.
That's really the sad irony to all of this. If Bonds hadn't used, he probably would've been the best player in the game for awhile anyway. He probably would have led the league in several categories - instead of pretty much all of them - for several seasons. That would have fueled the steroid suspicions. And the steroid suspicions would have, for a while at least, kept him out of the Hall. Had he hit worse, actually diminished his case for entry, then maybe he would get in sooner, as fewer voters would be convinced he was a user. This whole ethical judgment of players in the steroid era has led me to the resoundingly idiotic conclusion that a player would have a better chance of getting in if he hit worse, and that's all that needs to be said.

text: I guess we all have had weird ideas and our own dreams and ideas about the ways to riches at one point or another. I am sure none of it was as outrageous as the one youll get to see in "Ghostbusters", and I am not sure how many have been as controversial. Director Ivan Reitman created "Ghostbusters" in 1984 with the help of Saturday Night comedian Dan Aykroyd and writer/actor Harold Ramis, who are supported by Bill Murray, Rick Moranis and Sigourney Weaver in this hilarious comedy. Little did they know at the time that they were creating a cinematic phenomenon that would rise to instant cultdom and would still inspire legions of fans 15 years after its release. Now, just in time for the films 15th Anniversary, Columbia Tristar Home Video is releasing what could be the ultimate special edition of the film ever. We have taken the disc and checked if it can live up to the expectations, if it can indeed eclipse all previous releases of this amazing film.The story starts when the scientists Peter Venkman (Bill Murray), Raymond Stantz (Dan Aykroyd) and Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis) are fired from their university one day. Too long have they been the sideshow attraction of the campus rather than what you would consider serious researchers and scientists. Paranormal research has never been one of the directors pet subjects and the mens clumsiness and inability to turn up results only adds to the overall chaos on campus.In order to raise money to further support their work, the three eccentrics decide to open their own business as Ghostbusters. Incidentally, New York exhibits an increasing number of paranormal appearances at the same time and soon the Ghostbusters find themselves working on their first assignment. Dana Barrett (Sigourney Weaver) had a strange encounter in her kitchen, when eggs took on a life of their own, jumping from their shells, and the interior of her fridge turns into a portal to a sinister looking place.Investigating the case - and the woman - the Ghostbusters quickly detect increased paranormal activities in this particular building and assume it has some kind of implicit attraction to ghosts. In the meanwhile more apparitions and incidents occur across town, putting the entire city in a frenzy, and soon the Ghostbusters find themselves in higher demand than they could have ever expected. In a battle that seems hopeless, the Ghostbusters manage to capture and isolate one ghost after another, cleanly accumulating them all in their unique storage facility. Unexpectedly things take on an interesting turn when Dana and her nerdy neighbor Louis (Rick Moranis) become unwillingly tools in the resurrection of Zuul, the master of all ghosts. The Ghostbusters now have to face their ultimate challenge."Ghostbusters" has long found its place in our hearts and its satirical view on environmentalists, over-inflated politicians and mind-numbing bureaucrats has become legendary. The film manages to wrap all its harsh social criticism and cynicism in a colorful and extremely entertaining comedy spectacle. Although the film is benefiting a lot from the atmospheric cinematography and the detailed production design, this film is clearly carried by the odd-ball performances of the masterful comedians on the screen. The acting is hands-down funny and oftentimes seems more real than real. It is certainly a result of the chemistry between the actors, but must also be attributed to the amazing skills of talents like Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd. Oftentimes they manage to get the best out of a particular scene by ad-libbing and improvising the most magical moments, completely setting the script aside and doing what they do best - improptu stand-up comedy. Just by watching this movie you can tell that the people have had the time of their life, playing with propped plasma rifles, having goo smeared all over their faces, and standing in the middle of the most chaotic set Hollywood has known at the time.When Columbia Tristar Home Video made the initial announcement for this particular release, you could hear people literally gasp in anticipation. The list of bonus supplements for this disc was not only seemingly endless, it also contained a number of features that were never heard of and that would clearly push the current DVD technology quite a bit. Interestingly the disc looks just as unsuspecting as any other disc when you pull it from the packaging. It has the same weight, the same look and the same texture - I stayed away from checking the taste. But boy, I tell you, this disc is packed! Loaded, would be the better word. Some of the features on this release are simply spectacular and mind-boggling. The most amazing part of it is how well it all integrates into the movies overall feel, and how immersive these materials become. Addicting, I should say. Whatever you touch upon on this disc, it exhibits a love for detail, a love and respect for the movie and some kind of addictiveness that I have never seen before. Geee, its even harder to get away from this DVD than it was from the computer game that came out with the movies release back in 1984 - and that one was pretty good. For the first time ever, this disc allows you to experience and re-experience the same movie over and over and over again, adding new layers information and supplements every time you watch it.Take the commentary track for example. Although the disc contains a regular running-length commentary track by director Ivan Reitman, co-producer Joe Medjuck and actor Harold Ramis, Columbia added a new layer of experience to the feature. From the discs menu you can select a "Mystery Science Theater"-like silhouette of the commentators that is placed as an overlay on top of the actual film. Due to the added visual cue it vastly increases the feedback and impact you get out of the commentary track, and is the coolest special feature I have seen in a long while, taking a slightly worn and aged feature to completely new heights. When I started watching the film I was constantly torn between watching the plain film first, or going along with the commentary right off the bat. I must have switched back and forth a hundred times, until I opted for the prior, only to return to the commentary moments later. Its hopeless. This commentary track is sheer fun!Adding just as new a spin on a traditional feature, is the way how Columbia approached this discs production notes. Instead of giving you printed liner notes or static text screens that are completely detached from the actual movie, Ghostbusters" can give you background information about the film while you watch it. If you ever wondered which exact scene has been referenced in the production notes of a film because you dont remember it shot by shot, heres the answer to that. You have all your information as you go along the film, and once again, it is a great new way to enhance this feature, and to make use of DVDs enhanced capabilities and interactivity... And it gives you a good excuse to watch the film yet another time - as if you needed one. And make sure, not to miss the deleted scenes and the featurettes that come on the disc as well.Unfortunately the discs Tricks and Trivia" section is a little misleading. Instead of taking you to a true trivia section, this menu entry actually takes you to the above mentioned feature-length production notes.Ghostbusters" is presented in an anamorphic widescreen transfer on this disc, restoring the films 2.35:1 aspect ratio. The transfer is flawless, coming from a very clean print. The picture has a very good definition and well defined edges, without being over-enhanced. The color reproduction is the best I have seen for this film, with natural fleshtones, strong and well saturated colors and hues, and deep solid blacks. The level of detail is very good and the overall impression of the image is outright stunning, especially considering the films age and the fact that many films of that particular period did not hold up nearly as well. Dont even try to look for compression artifacts on this disc - you wont find any.The disc also contains a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround soundtrack. While the surrounds are nicely integrated, the films bass extension is rather moderate. Only in a handful of scenes it reaches down to give the scenes more punch. Nevertheless the soundtrack is well produced and balanced and has an impressive clarity to itself, due to the good spatial integration of the 5.1 re-mix. Elmer Bernsteins tension loaded musical score is also represented gloriously on this release, making the film even more fun to watch, although the soundtrack is probably the area where you will notice the films age the most. One of the reasons why Ghostbusters" became such a memorable film was because everything came together so nicely, and this presentation on DVD clearly consolidates this impression.Alltogether the verdict is crystal clear. Ghostbusters" is the coolest DVD in the market. Not only is the transfer and presentation of the film prisitine, it takes DVD as a medium to new heights, giving you features you cannot find on any other video format. It is a stellar release that is the ultimate showcase disc for DVD in terms of flexibility and there can be no doubt, that this disc has to go into every DVD owners collection. Even if youre not particular fond of the movie - which would surprise the hell out of me - you have to experience the innovative approach Columbia has taken here. Undoubtedly we are seing the introduction of a new generation of DVD with this spectacular release.

Gilbert, Ballinger Pace Whit X-C Women
News Release Date:
Saturday, September 18
WALLA WALLA, Wash. -- With sophomore Emilie Gilbert placing 23rd and senior Kristen Ballinger close behind in 27th, Whitman College finished seventh among 17 schools in the women's 6,000-meter open race at the Sundodger Invitational Saturday morning at Lincoln Park in Seattle, Wash.
Simon Fraser's Jessica Smith won the race, which attracted 191 runners, in 21:51.94.
Gilbert finished in 22:55.99 while Ballinger was clocked in 23:01.13.
|Emilie Gilbert
"Emilie went out with the lead group and held on strong," Whitman coach Scott Shields said. "She ran a really wonderful race from start to finish."
Others contributing to Whitman's team score were sophomore Lori Mendelsohn, 52nd, 23:44.69; first-year Missionary Eliza Vistica, 68th, 24:11.69; and junior Jennifer Farley, 76th, 24:17.56.
"Lori has been getting better and better every time she runs, and it's great to see Eliza stepping up for us and getting better.
|Kristen Ballinger
"Jennifer ran a typical Farley race, where she started at the back and must have passed about one-hundred runners."
Whitman finished seventh in the team scoring with 200 place points for its top five. Simon Fraser was first with 35 points while Lewis & Clark and Whitworth, two of Whitman's Northwest Conference rivals, were second and third with 88 and 95 points, respectively.
Puget Sound and Pacific Lutheran, the other NWC schools in the women's race, placed 12th and 17th, respectively.

B-Sens smoked 8-1 by Hershey Bears
That doesn't sound nice. The Binghamton Senators perfect season ended Saturday with an 8-1 loss to the defending AHL champion Hershey Bears. Denis Hamel scored Bingo's only goal, assisted by Martin St. Pierre, while Andy Chiodo allowed six goals on 29 shots in his first start of the season.

Amongst the carnage of the 48-3 victory, one of the players that fans have been waiting to see emerged... Keiland Williams. I gotta say, I like what I saw. Not only can Keiland push the pile, but he can spin of it too... damn near had a score during such a run.
I hope the coaches agree, as Williams looked faster, stronger, and a bit more hungrier than Harrison. Let's all hope that Keiland will be able to close out a bunch more games.... starting with the color purple. I'm not saying he's going to be anything but a role player, but his proformance was good enough to warrant a solid rotation when draining the clock and closing out the game.

Down for maintence page in CMS
10 June 2009 at 3:02am
I seem to posting a lot in here at the moment...
I was wondering if there is a way to create a "Down for maintenence" page through the CMS that would publish a html page (Just like ErrorPage does now)?
Could I achieve this through a subclass of error page? Or is there a class that I can use to generate a html file from my own page class?
Any help appreciated,
Re: Down for maintence page in CMS
10 June 2009 at 4:41am
I would be interested in a solution to this as well.
Usually I just add a rewrite rule in my .htaccess, before the SilverStripe rewrite rule. This then redirects to the "down for maintenance" page.
So it actually reduces to un/commenting a line in the .htaccess.
Changing it inside the CMS would be much nicer though.
Re: Down for maintence page in CMS
10 June 2009 at 5:25am
I was thinking along the lines of being able to content edit the page, rather than skipping the htaccess part... But that would be pretty handy as well
Re: Down for maintence page in CMS
10 June 2009 at 6:16am Last edited: 10 June 2009 7:18am
Yeah. The following .htaccess usually does the trick (and you should be able to enter the cms still):
<Files *.ss>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(\.gif)|(\.jpg)|(\.png)|(\.css)|(\.js)|(\.php)$
# comment/uncomment the 2 lines to enable/disable the down for maintenance page
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/(Security/.+|admin).*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* downformaintenance.html [L,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule .* sapphire/main.php?url=%1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
Update Fixed the rewrite condition (added .*)
Re: Down for maintence page in CMS
10 June 2009 at 8:50pm Last edited: 10 June 2009 8:52pm
Wouldn't it make more sense to use:
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^xxx\.xxx\.xxx\.xxx
To allow pre defined IP addresses to view the site? That way you can check it properly setting changes live?
Also, what markup do I need to use in this forum to get a code block? (edit: never mind, I found the 'Formatting Help' link)
Re: Down for maintence page in CMS
10 June 2009 at 9:01pm
Yes, that's even better if you got a fixed IP that is.
Re: Down for maintence page in CMS
10 June 2009 at 10:05pm
Yes, I guess it would require a fixed IP... Luckily I have one in work .
I guess another way would be to create a sub domain that points to the main site and then redirect that domain when the site is live and use it to access the site while it is down for maintenance? Shouldn't be to hard, you would just have to switch which rules you comment in your htaccess.
Admittedly, I could be making this too complex, but it seems like an idea at least .

You will want to send a HTTP 503 response as well, not a 200.
Probably the easiest way is to use a separate docroot for a 503 page and just switch the vhost to let apache server that file instead of your SilverStripe installation. Conceptually:
header( "HTTP/1.0 503 Service Unavailable" );
<title>Service Unavailable</title>
My 1337 site is currently unavailable due to maintainance. Please try again in a couple of minutes

It is not the fault of our doctors that the medical service of the community, as at present provided for, is a murderous absurdity. That any sane nation, having observed that you could provide for the supply of bread by giving bakers a pecuniary interest in baking for you, should go on to give a surgeon a pecuniary interest in cutting off your leg, is enough to make one despair of political humanity. But that is precisely what we have done. And the more appalling the mutilation, the more the mutilator is paid. He who corrects the ingrowing toe-nail receives a few shillings: he who cuts your inside out receives hundreds of guineas, except when he does it to a poor person for practice.
Scandalized voices may murmur that these operations are necessary. They may be. It may also be necessary to hang a man or pull down a house. But we take good care not to make the hangman and the housebreaker the judges of that. If we did, no man's neck would be safe and no man's house stable. But we do make the doctor the judge, and fine him anything from sixpence to several hundred guineas if he decides in our favor.

Five days after a woman was brutally raped and robbed in Sheffield, her attacker remains at large.
Police released a sketch of the man accused of violently raping and robbing a woman at the Colbert Square Apartments Tuesday evening.
Apparently this stranger had come by her apartment looking for an unknown person. She opened the door to talk to him and he forced his way in and sexually assaulted her.
Police say the man attempted to clean up the scene. He then forced the victim outside naked, stole her car keys and cell phone and took off. Officers found the woman's car abandoned in the middle of the road, just a few blocks away.
The suspect in this case had actually went to two other apartments prior to the third apartment with the same sad story and was trying to get into an apartment. police say the woman is recovering from the assault.
The victim was able to provide a description of her attacker, therefore leading to investigators being able to release a sketch.
The man is believed to be in his mid-to-late 20's and about 5'9" in height.
Sources said during the assault, the victim was able to strike the offender in the forehead with an ashtray. There was a lot of blood at the crime scene so the offender could have a gash in his head.
If you've see this man or have any information about this case, Sheffield Police ask that you contact them immediately.

This project Men of Color- Vol 1 (A grown and sexy journey using poetry and photography) started out as a project to reclaim a love for photography. By using my own self written poetry and my own photography capturing real brothers in erotic poses, the focus is on the mental, physical and untapped sex appeal. At first I was apprehensive since we live in such a suspicious society, but what I found was enthusiasm and each brother had a unique story behind his eyes. Men of Color exude a sensuality and eroticism, which has been captured, boxed, and mass-produced to sell everything from shoes, clothes, liquor and to yes sex. However, often times overlooked or missed is what lay behind the swagger, the muscles, the bald head, the Caesar and fade cuts, the six pack…the suit, the uniform, the hip hop gear, the cars, the jewelry, friends and lovers, ..….A Man with dreams, emotion, fears, successes, a deep real love.
Not to be trapped behind the skyscrapers overshadowing our lives or the concrete jungle we maneuver, we each are on a journey through life. The challenge is not to stay in one experience but rather live life to the fullest and learn from our past to propel us into the future.
The brothers most having never modeled come nationally and internationally from various heritages and ancestry…European, African, Indian, Latin. Each one helped bring his own sex appeal in each picture and by each poem. Experience real photography and real poetry without being changed or enhanced. Thank You.
Sex Appeal, Color and Imagery…what would life be without it?

|Leader visits mausoleum of Imam Khomeini
TEHRAN – Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei visited the mausoleum of Imam Khomeini to pay tribute to the founder of the Islamic Republic on Saturday on the occasion of the 35th anniversary of the return of the late Imam Khomeini.
Later, the Leader visited the tombs of former chief justice Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti and 72 senior officials martyred in the terrorist bombing of the Islamic Republic Party office in central Tehran on June 28, 1981 and the tombs of martyrs to pray for their souls.
Imam Khomeini returned to Iran from exile on February 1, 1979.
The next ten days are called the Ten-Day Dawn in Iran because the victory of the Islamic Revolution occurred on February 11, 1979.

Oops that was a bit of a bloomer. I was about to begin a Derby County diary for the season and then thought better of it as it was late. Little did I know that I had hit the wrong button (It must have been late)!
The purpose of this diary will be to track the progress of Nigel Clough as Derby fans have such high hopes this season. I must admit he has had a proper clear out and is obviously concentrating on reshaping the defence. Tito Villa has returned to Mexico, Mears has gone to Burnley, Dickinson to Brighton, Nyatanga to Bristol City, Sterjovski and Andy Todd are bound for Australia, Davis is apparently having his contract cancelled and some of the more prominent youngsters have been freed to join other clubs.
Today he signed the Blackpool captain Shaun Barker after a prolonged chase for his signature. Barker follows some quite surprising signings. There is no doubt that Nigel has been scouring the lower divisions for talent and he has astonishing faith in the abilities of some of his former Burton Albion players.
I must admit I could not see Jake Buxton and Saul Deeley ever making the grade three divisions up and that could also go for Dean Moxey from Exeter and I thought the signing of Pringle from Ilkeston was a touch barmy. In footballing terms it is a long way from Ilkeston to Derby. First reports are that young Pringle is a good 'un so I will reserve judgement.
The most surprising potential signing is the Aussie Patrick Kisnorbo who was only recently a hero at Leicester. Apparently he got injured and Leicester cut him loose so he can be considered a risk. If he can be coaxed back to his best then he could be a genuine bonus.
This leaves Lee Croft last seen being relegated with Norwich as being the only other signing alongside Barker who has proven ability at this level. Having said that the squad does look balanced with cover in all positions. All the major injured players from last season are back in training so it will be interesting to see who emerges as the first team and how they play under Nigel. Time will tell!

***UPDATED at 11:05 A.M. on Monday, August 19th***
It hasn't quite sunk in yet for for Augusta State University golfer Patrick Reed's family about his first PGA Tour win.
Patrick's prents, Bill and Jeannette, and his younger sister Hannah shed a lot of tears on Sunday...
Patrick and Jordan Spieth used to play junior golf together before starring in college...
The families have become close over the years, but once that playoff started, there was never any doubt in their mind who would come out on top...
"In those match play situations at the NCAA championships where it's just him, the athlete, having to perform; I think that helps him get his mind out of the way. So, sometimes I think it's better when he gets into those clutch situations," says Patrick's dad, Bill Reed.
"When he gets motivated he's pretty in gear and it's 'go time'. I had no doubt (he would win) and I don't think any of us did," says PAtrick's sister, Hannah Reed.
The Reeds say they usually rent their house out to players each year during Masters week...but needless to say, they probably won't be doing that this year...
We will continue to follow this story and bring you the latest details as they become available.
***POSTED at 6:37 P.M. on Sunday, August 18th***
GREENSBORO, N.C. (Joey Warren - GRU Sports Information) -- Former Augusta State All-American Patrick Reed drained a seven-foot birdie putt on the second hole of a playoff Sunday afternoon to win the Wyndham Championship at Sedgefield Country Club and claim his first PGA TOUR title.
Reed, 23, who led the Jaguars to NCAA Division I National Championships in 2010 and 2011, defeated Jordan Spieth when he rolled in the winning putt on the 10th hole, a 440-yard, slight dogleg-left, uphill par 4. From 167 yards out and in the woods right of the fairway, Reed punched a low, three-quarter 7-iron to avoid a limb after Spieth had just hit his approach to within 10 feet.
"It was the best shot of my life," Reed said of his approach into the 10th. "I had trees. I had a tree (limb) overhanging. I couldn't see the flag. I saw the two blue towers behind the green. It was a three-quarter 7-iron. It was a full 8-iron distance but if I try to hit something hard that thing would have gone left. We clubbed up one and I pulled it off."
Playing in the final group, Reed fired a final-round, 4-under 66 for a 72-hole total of 14-under 266 and finished regulation tied with Spieth, who finished one group ahead. Both players parred the first playoff hole at No. 18, with Reed missing a birdie putt from eight feet
On the second playoff hole, the 10th, Spieth's 10-foot birdie effort just slid by on the high side of the cup, leaving Reed with a seven-footer for the win. Reed, a two-time All-American in 2010 and 2011 for the Jags, sank the putt and celebrated with his wife and caddie, Justine.
With the victory, he became the fourth first-time winner in the last five years at the Wyndham Championship. He earned $954,000 for the win and easily went over the $1 million mark in earnings for the season. The win also gives Reed a two-year exemption on the PGA TOUR and qualifies him for the 2014 Masters Tournament.
Reed moved up to No. 22 on the FedEx Cup points list and is guaranteed a spot in the FedEx Cup playoffs in at least The Barclays, the Deutsche Bank Championship and BMW Championship. He will likely earn a spot in the field at the season-ending TOUR Championship presented by Coca-Cola.
Fellow former Jaguar All-American Henrik Norlander enjoyed a nice week as well, tying for 16th on the strength of a final-round, 4-under 66.

Drew Brees wins tag ruling
Alright! Looks like the precedent has been set. So now, the number of times a player has been tagged will carry over through the course of a player's career. So, we tagged Bowe this year for 9.5. If we should trade him, and the next team tag him, that would be considered the second time he's tagged. Meaning that the third tag would be for 144% of his salary.. Regardless of which team he playes for.

Lets take a look at who I project will be starting, and who the key backups will be in five years
QB- Cam Newton- No need to explain
RB- Jonathan Stewert, Speedy Drafted player- we intend to have Stew for awhile, but after Deangelo leaves we will need a viable backup
FB- Mike Tolbert- Debatable but I think we will keep him around
WR1 Drafted Player- Smitty retires, and nobody on the roster currently is number one WR material
WR2 Brandon Lafell- I like what i'm seeing and I hope he's around for awhile
WR3 Drafted Player- This position could be Pilaris, Gettis, Murphy or Joe Adams, but I don't think so
TE Drafted Player- could still be Olsen, but I think we develop someone into a better TE
LT Drafted Player- Gross retires. It could be Campbell, but I think we draft someone
LG Amini- He'll be around for awhile
C Kalil- Same
RG Signed FA- We need to upgrade this position
RT Byron Bell- He's looked great. He'll be around for awhile
So thats 7 current starters who I have starting in 5 years.

Reaaaaaally? Pop diva Katy Perry dressed as a Japanese geisha for her performance of "Unconditionally" at the American Music Awards tonight. The theatrical event included high-flying back-up dancers and lavish scenes from the Orient. We're just relieved she kept all her clothes on and refrained from twerking.
But it appears the grievance-mongers want to make a thing out of her adopting Eastern costumery. P.C. police, hear them roar:

Absorption of European Funds Priority Objective for Local Communities Development (English version)
AbstractThis paper analyzes the absorption capacity of structural funds in Romania in the programming period 2007-2013 and its impact on the development of local communities from the administrative point of view. The paper also focuses on the need to invest in institutional capacity and efficiency of public administrations using the Operational Programme for Administrative Capacity Development 2007-2013 which is a part of ESF funds that have as general objective to contribute to the creation of a more efficient and effective public administration for the socioeconomic benefit of local communities. Finally, the study reveals the problems and challenges related to local administration and its limited capacity to absorb european funds wich is a sensitive issue, especially because 2011 represents the fifth year of EU assistance for Romania to reach the stage of development of other member states.

ok before you go all /eyeroll, I saw this on SI and thought I would share it with anyone that hadnt seen it.
Its a decent write up and even though it doesnt tell us anything we as 9er fans dont know, it at least does the next best thing, for me at least, and that is once again remind everyone that Schwartz is a spandex camel toe. It wont make Harb Haters change their minds, but general fans, especially in the east that dont pay much attention to west coast teams/Pac 12 and just have heard what a jerk this Harb guy is, may come back with a better opinion.
My favorite line: Jim Harbaugh played 177 games in the NFL. Jim Schwartz did not play any. And yet, Harbaugh views himself as an outsider, while Schwartz sees himself as part of the NFL establishment.
Second fav: When Schwartz was asked about the handshake after the game, he explained his actions like this: "I think there's a protocol that goes with this league." It was a brassy statement from a guy who, to that point, was 13-25 in his head-coaching career. There's a protocol that goes with this league. Schwartz sees himself as an enforcer of that protocol.

Route Guide - iPhone / Android - Partners - Forum - Photos - Deals - What's New - School of Rock
Select Route:
This route requires a bit of a lot of different technique. The bottom section is a fairly easy crack, but requires a bit of thinking for gear placement. The middle bulge (first crux) looks a bit intimidating, but the crimps are all there. After a little offwidth section, the top section (second crux) is pure face; very fun and protected by two bolts. This last section is almost like a reverse "Lotta Balls", instead of balls, there are small dimples that you don't think will quite hold you, but do.
This route starts in the obvious crack about 30' right of the start to "Tarzan's Arm", follows the crack up, over a bulge, through a short offwidth section, past two bolts, to the bolted anchors. As with all other climbs on this face, you walk off right, and circle back to the base. You could rap off with a 65 meter rope, with a 60 meter rope you end up having to downclimb the last 6-8'.
Nuts, cams up to #4 Friend. There are two bolts in the last 20' or so. Bolted anchors.

Perfect Day
How lucky am I?
So far today I have been out for a 5.30am paddle with my outrigger crew and watched the sun rise over the Whitsundays. Then I got the kids off to Hamilton Island State School with their tennis and basketball gear so they can head to the Sports Club after school.
Then off to see Samantha at Ropana for a shiatsu treatment before heading to Front Street to get a fresh beetroot, carrot and apple juice from the Marina Deli.
A walk down the marina in the sun, cooled by the perfect amount of breeze, to Popeye's to pick up a fresh piece of salmon for dinner, and then drop into the florist to pick up some orchids for the table.
It's only 11am and already it's a perfect day. It must be time for a cup of tea out on the deck overlooking Catseye Bay.
How lucky am I?

Will The Slowing U.S. Economy Effect Asian Stock Markets?
Posted October 23, 2007
0 Comments
If the U.S. economy continues to slow down, will that negatively impact the growth of China and other Asian economies that manufacture and sell so many products to the U.S.? How will Asian stock markets react to a slowing U.S. economy? Remember when you were a kid and watched a magic show. The magician was always trying to get you to look somewhere else while his other unwatched hand was pulling a card or a coin out of your ear. Magicians call this misdirection. The secret of successful investing is to stay focused and never take your eye off the only thing that really matters: the overall health of the economy.

Black Mountain ReviewTags: Robert Creeley, William Burroughs
Reports from the Bibliographic Bunker
Jed Birmingham on William S. Burroughs Collecting
First impressions. Some people take their cue from a handshake, the eyes, a bank statement, or the shine of one's shoes. I make a beeline for the bookshelves. Forget reading palms. One's library is a window into one's soul. Go through my books and I stand naked before you. So I was excited to get a series of e-mails from Steve Clay of Granary Books attaching selections from the library of Robert Creeley. The institutions had first crack at the lot and, if there were no takers, the doors were thrown open to the collectors. Naturally I was curious to see what Burroughs books Creeley had. From the looks of it, Creeley seems like my type of guy. Naked Lunch, The Exterminator, Nova Express, The Third Mind, Letters to Ginsberg 1953-1957, The Yage Letters, Paris Review No. 35, some lectures and notes by Allen De Loach on The Last Words of Dutch Schultz. Heavy on Burroughs from 1962-1965. Not surprising really, as Creeley wrote one of the first reviews of Naked Lunch in 1961, which was published in Outburst #1, a little magazine out of England edited by Tom Raworth. Creeley also included Burroughs in the anthology he co-edited with Donald Allen, the prose follow-up to New American Poetry, entitled The New American Story (published by Grove Press in 1965).
This is my Burroughs as well. The experimental Burroughs, the cut-up Burroughs, or, as Ted Morgan describes him in Literary Outlaw, Burroughs at large. For me, this is when Burroughs was at his best and at his most relevant. Much is made of the importance of Naked Lunch, and rightly so, but do not forget about the publication of Nova Express in 1964 (in hardcover) and quickly reprinted in paperback the following year. The hardcover had a print run of 10,000 as opposed to the 3,500 for Naked Lunch in 1962, although I doubt many people actually read Nova Express. No question, Naked Lunch has been more widely read and named bands, but Nova Express inspired and influenced the creative process. It is popular culture versus cult. It is kind of like the albums of the Velvet Underground. Not a lot of people bought and listened to the music but everybody who did started a band. Such is the case with Nova Express, the rest of the cut-up novels, and the contemporary little magazine appearances. From J.G. Ballard, Michael Moorcock and the new science fiction to Second Generation NY Poets to the Language Poets to the cut-up brigade of Claude Pélieu, Carl Weissner, Jan Herman, and Jürgen Ploog to say nothing of later writers such as Kathy Acker and Stewart Home, musicians such as David Bowie or Genesis P-Orridge, or artists such as Tom Phillips, Burroughs of the mid-1960s is Burroughs at his most viral in that other artists were infected with his techniques and style. Naked Lunch or Nova Express. It is a lifestyle versus a way of writing. I privilege writing and reading over experience. That is my weakness, my failing, and it is all laid out for view in my library.
Creeley's relationship with Burroughs goes back to the beginnings of Burroughs' literary career, and Creeley played a major role in the launching of Burroughs as a serious writer. The key book of Creeley's library in this regard is Letters to Ginsberg 1953-1957. These letters contain the genesis of Naked Lunch, and Creeley along with Ginsberg served as the midwives who gave birth to Naked Lunch in print. Naked Lunch first appeared before a limited public in the landmark Black Mountain Review 7. The Maynard & Miles bibliography states that this issue of Black Mountain Review was not available until the spring of 1958. I think this is wrong. In his essay on Black Mountain Review, "The Grinding Down," published in Kulchur 10, Paul Blackburn, a contributor to and primary distributor of the Review, states that Issue Seven was available in New York in the autumn of 1957. In January of 1958, Ginsberg writes in a letter that issues were on sale in New York bookstores (thanks to Blackburn), and Ginsberg requested a copy. This would put the first appearance of Naked Lunch right smack dab during the height of the hype around the Beats: the Howl trial, the Evergreen Review San Francisco Scene issue, Mailer's "The White Negro" essay and the publication of On the Road. It should be noted that this Naked Lunch was not the novel as we know it today, but an early hybrid of Queer, The Yage Letters, and Naked Lunch and that Burroughs hid behind the name of William Lee. In any case, a small selection of the embryonic Naked Lunch was available in print, much to Burroughs' surprise and excitement. In 1957, Burroughs was still wrestling with the form of Naked Lunch, and he never thought it would be published. The appearance in Black Mountain Review must have been a tremendous boost to his confidence.
Founded by progressive educator John Rice in 1933 near Asheville, North Carolina, by the late 1940s, Black Mountain College attracted key figures (or soon to be) in the experimental arts: John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Josef and Anni Albers, David Tudor, Clement Greenberg, Charles Olson, Robert Rauschenberg, Franz Kline, and Buckminster Fuller. By 1954, the College was on its last legs. In fact, the winter of 1953/1954 was arguably the lowest point in the College's history. Out of this winter of discontent grew the idea of a literary magazine. Olson had turned Black Mountain into his own classroom and writers like Ed Dorn, Michael Rumaker, John Wieners, and Fielding Dawson attended the college. Robert Duncan and Robert Creeley along with Olson would teach at the College in its closing years. Olson saw a review as a means to draw students to North Carolina in addition to serving as a means to disseminate his own work in the event Cid Corman's Origin collapsed. Much to his surprise, Creeley found himself in the position of editor of the Review. From his first correspondence with Olson in 1950, Creeley flirted with the idea of publishing his own magazine (with instruction from Ezra Pound) and now he had to shit or get off the pot.
At the time, Creeley was living in Mallorca off the coast of Spain. The island had a tradition of independent publishing due to Robert Graves, Laura Riding, and their Seizen Press. Printing was cheap in Mallorca and the first issue of the review was printed in roughly 500 copies (print runs for the seven issues ranged from 500-750 of which Creeley believes only 200 of each run were actually distributed) by local printer Mossen Alcover on equipment acquired from Graves. Simultaneously, Creeley established Divers Press which published the work of Olson (The Mayan Letters, In Cold Hell, In Thicket), Blackburn (The Dissolving Fabric), Duncan (Caesar's Gate), Creeley (The Gold Diggers) and others. Please read Kyle Schlesinger's excellent essay on Creeley's typography for more in-depth information on Creeley as a publisher. The first four issues of Black Mountain Review appeared quarterly in 1954 at about 64 pages and then annually thereafter in 1955-1957 at more than 200 pages.
Jonathan Williams published the seventh and last issue in North Carolina. By this point, Williams and his Jargon Society were well-established publishers of experimental poetry. Olson (The Maximus Poems 1-10 and 11-22), Creeley (The Immoral Proposition), Louis Zukofsky (Some Time), and Duncan (Letters) were all published by Jargon. See Jacket Issue 38 for the Jonathan Williams retrospective edited by Richard Owens for more information on Williams as a publisher. Williams honed his craft as a publisher and a photographer at Black Mountain and he was not alone. Joel Oppenheimer along with Jonathan Williams ran the printer at Black Mountain, producing Oppenheimer's The Dancer with a cover drawing by Rauschenberg. Nicholas Cernovich printed Robert Duncan's The Song of the Border Guard with a cover by Cy Twombly in the Black Mountain Graphic Workshop. A copy of this was up at the New York Book Fair signed by Twombly to Jonathan Williams. Cernovich also printed Charles Olson's This with Cernovich designing the cover in 1951. That same year Olson's Letter to Melville was printed at Black Mountain.
Black Mountain Review remains one of the greatest little magazines of all time. The Review published key critical and creative work by Olson, Creeley, Zukofsky, and Duncan in addition to reproductions of work by Franz Kline, Aaron Suskind, and Harry Callahan (Creeley's collection of Callahan's photographs are available from Granary Books). The cover art of Black Mountain Review is striking. The first four issues were done by Katue Kitasono whose Black Rain was published by Divers Press. John Altoon provided the artwork for Issue Five, Dan Rice Issue Six and Ed Corbett Issue Seven. Each Issue of the Review captured the melting pot of literature, music, art, dance, and photography that made the College famous. The Review in form and content is an experiment in the arts.
Number Seven is the most influential issue of all. The editorship, like the College itself, was in disarray with Creeley and Allen Ginsberg each having a hand in it. The magazine appeared well after the College had closed in 1956. The range of work in Number Seven is much more diverse than previous issues with Ginsberg's influence playing a major role in its contents. In 1956, Creeley and Ginsberg were in San Francisco and at the center of that city's poetic renaissance. Philip Whalen, Gary Snyder, Ginsberg (as well as Michael Rumaker's tough love review of Howl), and Jack Kerouac all appear in the issue, giving it a Beat feel. Like in the San Francisco issue of Chicago Review in 1958, Burroughs was thrown in by Ginsberg as part of his heroic effort to disseminate and promote Burroughs' work.
To a certain extent, as in the Chicago Review San Francisco issue, Burroughs did not fit in. Burroughs himself felt the Black Mountain crowd to be rather pretentious and doctrinaire. They were just another political faction like the Senders or Divisionists, as described in Naked Lunch. Yet Burroughs' inclusion in Black Mountain Review is crucial as it placed Naked Lunch in the context of experimental fiction, not pulp or pornography like the Ace Junkie, the Olympia Naked Lunch or Man's Wildcat Adventures (which excerpted Junkie). In addition, Naked Lunch was not a medical curiosity like Burroughs' "Letter from a Master Addict to Dangerous Drugs" published in the British Journal of Addiction in January 1957. Burroughs and his work mingled with the work and ideas of Robert Rauschenberg, Olson, Zukofsky, John Cage, and others, i.e., experimental art, poetry, and music of the 1950s. For me such links provide much of the power and lasting legacy of Naked Lunch and foreshadow Burroughs' literary obsessions of the next decade. Unfortunately the pressing need to defend Naked Lunch against obscenity charges would bring back into play questions of morality, which would link the novel to Jonathan Swift, Dante, and medical case studies. The process of returning Burroughs to his roots in the experimentalism of the 1950s is just now being undertaken. Those links are strong as Burroughs' later collaboration with Rauschenberg makes clear. Thankfully Burroughs added black humor, underworld and hipster culture, and a unique intensely personal writing style into the mix, which enlivens what can, for my taste, be overly serious and sterile in Cage, Olson, and Zukofsky.
To be honest where else could Naked Lunch have appeared in the Silent Decade? The literary landscape of the mid-1950s was a wasteland for experimental literature. Black Mountain Review was an oasis in the desert. There was Cid Corman's Origin, the fledgling Evergreen Review, Semina, and little to nothing else. Evergreen Review and Semina would follow in Black Mountain Review's footsteps and publish Burroughs in the coming years. Yugen, Big Table, Floating Bear, and New Departures did not yet exist and, in fact, grew out of the thawing soil in which the Black Mountain Review 7 and Evergreen Review 2 planted the first seeds. Donald Allen's landmark New American Poetry anthology of 1960 made clear that poetry in the United States was in full bloom. Through the pages of Black Mountain Review, Burroughs and Naked Lunch first entered into print and the experimental arts, and in Big Table, they began to enter into the popular consciousness. Big Table and its huge print run of ten thousand copies would blow the door off the jambs that the Black Mountain Review had merely unlocked.

A dog owner may lose his pets in the next few days. His Boxers are accused of viciously attacking a student back in April. Prosecutors say a teenage girl is lucky to be alive, but the owner of the dogs says there's more to the story.
Tim Iocoangeli says he's fighting for the lives of his family: his four Boxer dogs. He says, at the very least, he wants to see them one last time.
"I can't even say goodbye to them," Iocoangeli says. "I mean, honestly, it's cruel. I can't say goodbye to them? And they're never going to be around again. They're good dogs. I mean, that's my best friend. All of them are. They slept with me every night, every night since they were born, and then now they're gone."
Iocoangeli says in late April he left his dogs inside his home: Brooklyn, Bhudda, Sweetie and Sheena and five puppies.
While he was gone, investigators say two teens came to his house and opened the front door. One was bitten -- dozens of times. Neighbors say they had to throw bricks at the dogs to make them stop.
Despite the fact that the dogs were left inside the home, they were impounded. It was ruled the adult dogs should be destroyed and the puppies adopted out.
Iocoangeli argues the girl and teenage boy were trespassing, and his dogs were protecting the property – and their puppies.
"I am horrified about this girl that got bit," he says. "But the thing is they're just looking at the bite thing and not around it. Trespassing. They were never allowed in that house."
Prosecutors disagree, and the judge ruled the victim never entered the home, making the incident it an unprovoked dog attack.
Iocoangeli wants to see his dogs, but animal control says allowing anyone to see the dogs would expose the county to liability.
"It's wrong," he says. "Eight months, and I couldn't even go in there. Liability? What liability?"
Iocoangeli is facing four felony counts for the dog attacks.
The prosecution has granted the defense two more days to file a motion before euthanizing the dogs.
Iocoangeli has started a petition to save the dogs. You can also visit the Facebook page he started about the case.
