(United Kingdom, Australia 28 Aug 1893 – 13 Aug 1977)
50.5 x 61.0 cm board; 62.5 x 73.0 x 3.7 cm frame
'Dance of the football field' depicts two Sydney-based rugby league teams during a 1947 match in which the Balmain team (black and yellow) defeated the Manly team (maroon and white) at Brookvale Oval, home to the Manly football club. It is likely that Weaver Hawkins and his sons were in the crowd, as Hawkins lived in Mona Vale, north of Manly, at the time he created this painting.
The artist has signed the painting 'Raokin', an alias which he began to use from 1927, stemming from unwanted publicity as an artist living with severe injuries from World War I.

"I enrolled on OLCI's course so that I could get the qualifications I needed … I've been working for over a year for a major electrical firm with various contracts for the Ministry of Defence.
This has given me the opportunity to put into practice what I've learnt on my training and get some useful practical experience. I'm looking forward to developing my career as an electrician within the company."

So Cody Ross's name has come up a lot in trade talks, which is no surprise considering how well Maybin is doing in NOLA and the fact that Cody will be in his second year of arbitration after the year. Although the Marlins could fit him in, he likely will not be here next season. Ontop of which, he's likely our most valueable trading chip. So what exactly is his value?
First you have to understand how good he is.
(Note: I compiled these numbers during the ASB, not going to re-do it all as it should barely have changed)
He took over the CF job for the Marlins in 2008. Since then, he has posted a .810 OPS and 17.1 wRAA On defense, he has a 9.7 UZR and a 9 plus/minus. Very good numbers. He has not been too good on the base paths though, which is normally expected out of a CFer, with only a 0.2 EQBRR. All togeather, this is a total of 27 runs going by UZR and 26.3 going by plus/minus.
Looking at CFers with atleast 120 games played (roughly 50% of games) since then, his 27 runs with UZR rank him 8th out of 26, and his 26.3 runs with plus minus rank him 7th. Needless to say, he's been one of the leagues better CFers.
Sorted by Offense+BR+UZR:
Sorted by Plus/Minus:
However, this also gives advantages to guys with more PAs and Innings. If we rate offense, base running, and fielding to a 150 game sample size, this is what we get
For UZR:
And Plus Minus:
As you can see, Cody is one of the better CFers in the league. By adding then runs for replacement level and positional (+24 runs total), we're talking about a 4 and a half win player, which is very good.
Of other interestings notes, since 2006 Cody Ross has the ISO of any CFer at .233. He ranks 23rd in all of baseball during that time period, ahead of guys like Burrell, Chipper, Holliday, and Morneau.
And dating back to 1901, he has the 9th highest career ISO of any player with atleast 50% of their games in CF. We're talking about one of the most powerful CFers of all time. Certinaly not Mantle or Griffey level, but still very impressive.
The team that trades for him also wouldn't just be getting a rental; he's under team control until after the '11 season. He's making 2.225m this season and will likely make around 3.5-4m in arbitration this coming offseason.
So, then, what exactly is his value?
Most likely, it's around what McClouth got. Although going by statistics, McClouth is worth one less run then Cody, you have to remember that not everybody goes off statistics and McClouth won a gold glove. There are also reports that there were those in Atlanta's office that wanted COdy instead because they thought they could get him for cheaper. I think it's safe to assume that McLouth's haul is a good comp though, which was 3 borderline C+/B- minus guys.
However, the Marlins really do not need depth, as they have one of the deepest minor league systems and not many ML holes to fill. So at that point, you're hoping for something more along the lines of one B spec and one C+ spec.
So then, who could be matches?
Cincinatti Reds: They're currently running Taveras out in CF and as you can see, he's very very bad. However, they have supposedly been more interested in Hermida. Though, with Bruce being really the only impressive OFer left there, getting both probably wouldn't be unheard of.
Baseball America's top 10 | John Sickel's top 20
New York Yankees: If they aren't sold on Brett Gardner's production, he could be a fit for the Yanks. Gardner is also currently on the DL, leaving the CF job to Melky.
Baseball America's top 10 | John Sickel's top 20
Kansas City Royals: While they did trade for CoCo Crips this past offseason, we can see above that he's not exactly impressive, and they have been making moves to be better now. However, Cody's below average career OBP of .324 might be too high for Dayton Moore.
Baseball America's top 10 | John Sickel's top 20
Detroit Tigers: WIth Grandsen, Cody would move to a corner spot, but they could use the OF help
Baseball America's top 10 | John Sickel's top 20
Chicago White Soxs: They just traded for Mark Kotsay, just enforcing how much they could use Cody
Baseball America's top 10 | John Sickel's top 20
Seattle Mariners: They've shown they're defense first, and Cody is a very good defensive player. He'd play LF, and would put up a lot better offense then Endy Chavez (as it'll likely be his again next season) and Ryan Langerhans, while not being much worse defensively.
Baseball America's top 10 | John Sickel's top 20
Oakland A's: They have a good amount of OFers, but only Davis can play CF like Cody and Cody is vastly supperior on offense.
Baseball America's top 10 | John Sickel's top 20
A couple other fits would be San Deigo and Cleveland but both seem to have given up not just on this year but next year aswell. The Twins could also be a fit, but that would involve them giving up on both Gomez and Young, which is unlikely.
And what are the Marlins needs?
3rd baseman: Currently Chris Coghlan, Emilio Bonifacio, and possibly Gaby Sanchez are the only ML-ready 3b options. We need a real 3rd baseman badly.
ML-ready starting pitcher: Anibal Sanchez is injured again, Andrew Miller is struggling again. With guys such as John Koronka, Graham Taylor, and Hayden Penn getting starts, the need screams badly.
And possibly catcher. Although Baker has done a nice job, fact remains he's aenemic against LHP and has very questionable defense.
However, that's basically it. The Marlins are completely covered in the OF; they have Maybin for CF and Stanton for RF, and something should emerge out of Cousins/Carroll/Petersen/Raynor/et al for LF. There's also the possibility of Logan Morrison moving to LF if Gaby Sanchez pushes him. Which, then moving to first base, there's Gaby Sanchez and Logan Morrison. You also have to look at the fact that with the current market, FA LF/1B are very cheap. At second base, the Marlins have both Chris Coghlan and Emilio Bonifacio. SS there's a guy by the name of Hanley Ramirez, and the bullpen is loaded with young cost controlled guys aswell as several projectable bullpen arms in the upper minors.
And out of the teams above, none of them really have an attainable ML ready good 3B option. So the focus on Cody will probably be pitching. And there's just too many interesting names to name for that.

The NFL released a statement today saying that teams would be able to excercise their franchise tags beginning on February 10th. Steve Reed quickly pondered over Twitter than DeAngelo Williams would likely receiver the tag, but low and behold the NFLPA has other thoughts on the matter.
One hour ago the union sent a message to agents telling them that this was spurious given that the wording of this CBA is thus:
'each club shall be permitted to designate one of its players who would otherwise be an Unrestricted Free Agent [or RFA] as a Franchise Player each season during the term of this Agreement'
It's the union's claim that as the owners plan to have a lockout that 2011 does not count as a 'season' under the agreement and therefore the franchise tag is not applicable. From where I sit it seems the union is right on the money with their claim. Whether I agree in the methodology or not, it does appear from the wording of the current CBA that the tag would not apply as there are no current plans for an upcoming season.
After the jump we'll explore what would occur if there are franchise tags... after the jump
I agree with Steve Reed's belief that DeAngelo Williams would be the most likely recipient of the tag, should it be available. However, the most interesting aspect is that of potential trades involving tagged players.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but as the CBA doesn't expire until March 1st and the NFL are claiming that tags can be applied on February 10th you could see a speight of players being tagged and traded before the CBA expires, provided they sign their tenders before the CBA expires. The motivation for teams is simple: trade players and get some value before the draft, the motivation for players is clear too- try and sign an extension under the current CBA.
While there would be no free agency come March 1st, there is no prevision that limits teams from signing players to contract extensions before that deadline. Therefore, a player could be tagged, traded and sign long term before March 1st. Is it convoluted? Absolutely. Unlikely? Indubitably... but possible? Yes, I think so.
What do you think CSR community? Is my reasoning correct or is there a by-law I've overlooked?

Customer Reviews
By: P S Diamond from Louisville, KY on 12/07/2012Great design, but WAY too heavy to be useful for taking to classes, etc. I am returning it.
By: Greg from Honolulu, Hawaii on 12/26/2011Great palette box. Well designed with glass palette and sliding assembly. Lots of storage space, well crafted, and easy to set up. Only possible disadvantage is the weight; but, that would depend on how it's used. Great alternative to the standard art box.

For asthma and allergy sufferers the choice of carpeting or hard flooring can be a confusing one. Although medical professionals often advise people with severe allergies to remove wall-to-wall carpeting, carpet manufacturers defend their product, saying that carpet fibers actually trap allergy-provoking substances like dust and pollen and prevent them from circulating in the air where they can be inhaled. A new carpet from International carpet and artificial grass manufacturer, DESSO, could mean an end to such conundrums as it is designed to capture and retain more of the potentially harmful allergy-producing particles in its fibers and significantly reduce the amount of such particles floating in the air.

Hookworms may protect against asthma and other allergies
There has been a worldwide increase in the prevalence of asthma and other allergies over the last century. With the biggest jump in cases coming from the developed world, it's been theorized that the rise in such diseases could be the unintended result of the success of modern hygiene in preventing childhood infections. A new study conducted in Vietnam has added credence to the view that parasitic gut worms, such as hookworm, could help in the prevention and treatment of asthma and other allergies. Read More
Possible cure for peanut allergy discovered: peanuts
Peanut allergies are very common - something like one in every 200 children will suffer from some sort of reaction, and while roughly 100 people per year die as a result, peanuts are still thought to be the most prevalent food-related cause of death. Certainly, for those afflicted, it's a huge annoyance to be constantly checking labels and asking at restaurants just to make sure. So it's good to hear that Duke University researchers are making progress on a cure - or at least a therapy for reducing the effects of peanut exposure. Read More

Big Country Q&A: Munday's Corcoran visits with the Reporter-News
Motivated Munday nears championship
Motivated Munday nears championship
By Evan Ren
firstname.lastname@example.com 325-676-6711
He's among the area's most successful small-school coaches, with a Class 1A DII state title in 2007, a title game appearance last year and a state semifinal date with Wellington set for this Friday.
Now, Munday coach Patrick Corcoran, whose top-ranked Moguls are favored by most to take this year's Division II title, visits with the Reporter-News in this week's Big Country Q&A.
Q: Coach, we appreciate you visiting with us. One thing I've wondered about you is that with all the success you've had at Munday, you must have had offers from elsewhere. Yet you've stayed. I take it that you feel like you've found your niche?
A: "To be honest, I was only contacted one time after the 2007 state championship, and that's the only school that has ever contacted me. ... When I got into this career, one of the things I knew was that coaches can lose their job at the drop of a hat, for any number of reasons including wins and losses. So one of the things I wanted to do was not coach at more than three places during my career. ... You look at guys like G.A. Moore at Celina and Gary Proffitt at Goldthwaite or Denney Faith at Albany, that's what I wanted to do. I've got my family here. This is the only place my children know, and that's what I wanted for my family. I grew up in a small town. I feel like we're welcome here. They want to see the teams be successful, but the community is very supportive. I don't feel the pressure of 'Win or you'll lose your job.' "
Q: Last year, you caught some people off guard reaching the state championship game. A lot of us media types thought that you were a year away from getting that far. Did your team surprise you also?
A: "We knew where we stood coming into last year. We knew that Windthorst was the team to beat in our region. We were as good as anybody else, so Windthorst was a focus of ours. Our offense was designed to attack their defense — it's what we spent a whole year building up for. We felt that if we were able to beat them, that we'd have a shot at a (state title). We weren't sure if we could do it or not, but as things worked out, we had that opportunity. Then we managed to beat Wellington and ran into that buzz saw known as Tenaha."
Q: How much did that Tenaha loss in the championship game affect your players? And how much did it make them want to get back to Arlington?
A: "One thing about this group of young men — losing really bothers them. I mean it eats away at their insides, so losing that game last year was a feeling they didn't want to have ever again. I think that's one of the things that drives most successful people — the fear of failure outweighs anything else. It drives people to be successful, and it's driving this group of boys right now. These boys had not only been beaten, but they had been beaten up by Windthorst, Stamford and Tenaha last year. ... So that's driven our players to push forward and not take anything for granted — to work every week and take care of things on a daily basis."
Q: This year's Munday team is one of the most dominating Class 1A teams we've seen in a while. Did you expect it to be this good?
A: "Defensively, we're very pleased with where we are at. We had some question marks there to start the year, and this group is playing really well together, being physical, running to the ball and covering up the passing game. ... That's where the question marks have been answered because we weren't sure how that would develop. ... Offensively, I'm running out of superlatives to explain what the kids are doing. We can call a simple running play, and a kid will go for 60 yards. ... It's crazy how the kids are executing those things. ... The biggest thing after that is Dee (Paul's) ability to throw the football. He has worked tremendously hard on that. Last year, we didn't have the ability to throw the ball to the right spots. But this year, he's got 21 touchdown passes and three interceptions. ... That's making us tough to deal with and it's made our offense pretty dynamic. We want you to defend the whole field, and this year we've truly made people do that."
Q: Coach, I've always viewed your defense as one of the most aggressive in our area. I've seen you take some big risks with five-man fronts, eight or nine guys in the box and no deep safety help. Do you take this approach because you have the athletes to pull it off or is it just your philosophy to gamble?
A: "I've got two theories on how you win games. One is, you run the football. If you're going to win state championships or district championships, you're going to do it by running the ball. But by the same token, if that is your offensive philosophy, then your defensive philosophy had better be to stop the run and make people one-dimensional. In our classification, there aren't a lot of quarterbacks out there who can throw the ball for 400 yards every week and beat you that way. They have to have that balance of running and throwing off play action. Our defensive philosophy is to take away the run and make you beat us throwing the football. We've been blessed to have just enough athletes to play man coverage and put pressure on that quarterback to make him throw it perfectly. ... We always try to have one more guy in the box than you can block. ... We've messed around with different defenses and because of personnel, we can't always do what we want to do. But when we have the right mix of kids, this is exactly how we want to play."
Q: I need to hit you with a tough question. Early in the season, you had told me that Dee Paul, your quarterback, had been the target of racial slurs during games by a number of different teams. It floored me that this sort of thing was still going on during high school football games. How do you tell your players to handle it?
A: "Talking (trash) during high school football games happens, and I'm not going to say that my players aren't saying some things too. I know I've had some players who would rub things in to other kids because they thought it would keep that mojo going. Some use it as a way of getting inside someone's head. ... Some people will say that it's OK, and that it's just a part of the game or whatever. But we've always tried to teach our kids that you play the game on the scoreboard. You play it with your helmet, your hands and your feet. You can't win a football game by running your mouth, and with every new group of kids we get, we have to mature them to that point. ... Bringing up race is another thing. I still don't understand why it occurs, and I'll never understand it. That's the hardest thing for our young men to get over — having people address them racially. I can't explain how it makes them feel because I'm not in their shoes. We just try to grow from it and get them to understand that we can speak louder than (trash talkers) with a victory. ... In this world today, that stuff hasn't disappeared, and I don't see it going anywhere. It's always going to be there as long as some people raise their kids to think that way."
Q: Coach, tell us about the future — your goals, where you hope to be and what you hope not to regret.
A: Moving forward, we just want to continue trying to better the lives of the kids we have here at Munday High School — giving them a well-rounded experience, academically and athletically. I tell our young men that I'm here because I didn't feel like I had that opportunity as a player, and I wanted to make sure that young players get the most out of themselves. That's why we push them and always will push them. So we just want to continue traveling that path, working hard, and continued success will come with that work. We want to (influence) the lives of the boys and girls who go to school here and give them and the community something to be proud of. ... When the time comes to look back and reflect, I'll hope we'd have given them something they can remember for the rest of their lives and share with their children."

Our last afternoon in the village was a trip down to the local hospital (if you can even call it that).
The place was in desperate need of even the most basic tools and medicinal instruments if there is to be any professional medical care for the village.
I seriously had some nightmares of re-visiting the hospital rooms as a sick patient and it was so apparent that if there were to be any complications with the birth of a child or if someone young contracted Malaria, then there really is the smallest chance of survival.
I think this scene really pulled the heart strings of us all in the Quiksilver Foundation team and so we decided to make our next project to be the rejuvenation of the hospital.
To be continued…

Lizzie St. Claire has had just about all she can take. Her marriage ended on a sour note after her husband, the music professor, had a duet with a violinist half his age. Her beloved grandmother, Celeste, went and died on her without so much as a goodbye. And now she must face her family, and the emotional riptide they can churn out, in her hometown of Willow Row, South Carolina. Not only must Lizzie endure the fallout after the death of the family matriarch, but Celeste has graciously decided to haunt her. Her grandmother insists she can only rest in peace if Lizzie can find some peace of her own with The Family in the small town she once vowed to never call home again.
"Again, Ms Phillips has submitted for review a new Woman's Romance so captivating, I could not put it down. It has lingered with me for days and still has me smiling and thinking about it. I have always felt I had not become the woman I am until my mid to late 30's. It is unrealistic to think you are the same at the age of 25 as you are at 35. Many books are written for young romance. Lisa Phillips has wowed me with this story of Lizzie St. Claire coming back to Willow Row, S.C., the small town she left…couldn't wait to leave, to bury her idol, her grandmother Celeste. I hope you enjoy this as much as I have.
I am a Northerner born and bread in NYC. The author had me drifting back in my memories finding differences but also some of the sameness, and I could relate.. Ms. Phillips brings us to a small town in the South, whose ideals are between the old and new. I found though, that even though there they had balmy nights and sultry days and we shoveled snow, families are still probably much the same.
Lizzie is the oldest of three children, She is a "St. Claire" which means a lot in Willow Row. She left to go to college, married an outsider, and is just newly divorced. Grandmother Celeste was the matriarch, and lived 'in the big house' where Lizzie found solace. Her Grandmother knew Lizzie felt she was a square peg in a round hole and cannot leave this earth without fixing this. Upon Lizzie's return for the funeral, she meets up with the ghostly Celeste and we are drawn into Lizzie and her grandmothers wonderful "chats" and along with Lizzie we learn more about "the perfect" St. Claires of Willow Row.
Daddy is movie star handsome, an attorney with a philandering eye. Mommy is pretty, polished, well-dressed and part of the Woman's Club set.Does she just look away from Daddy's other activities??? Perfect, beautiful, younger sister Cassie was the Homecoming Queen at USC, has a perfect marriage, is a perfect wife, 2 perfect children; you get my drift. Can you be perfect forever??? Last but not least, brother Ashton, now 32, working in Daddy's Law Firm, handsome like his Daddy and spoiled rotten. Ashton has been Lizzie's since he was a toddler, they adore each other. He is to inherit the family business. What would happen if he fell in love with someone Daddy and Mommy, and polite society, didn't approve of??? Grace is more than a housekeeper and cook. She and her granddaughter Julia give us the 'inner circle' but I couldn't help laughing and thinking about 'the 3 aunts' that plagued this family just like my very similar 3 aunts that plagued mine. They were so full of themselves and their agendas, and the similarity was not missed by me.
Grandmother Celeste was a spitfire in her day, marrying 'into' the family and has an idea up her sleeve called Brady Ralston. He is a contractor she hired to work on her house when she got the news that she had only a short time left to live. Brady is living in the carriage house, and when Celeste pops in for her first chat with Lizzie…the story begins.
This is so the story of a woman coming into her own and finding herself. On this path, she has to look back, and as she does, she sees what she thought of herself then was not how others saw her. In doing so, she finally finds her worth now and boy does that have an effect on the other family members…Lizzie has found her groove.
Another interesting point I would like to make, is how our author makes us view the south, in all it's glorious Gone With the Wind splendor. The manners, the cooking, the family, the smells coming from Grace's kitchen; fried tomatoes, moon pies and fried chicken. My little NYC self can only imagine this wonderful life-style with rolling meadows, whispering springs, beautiful balmy nights with the sounds of frogs and crickets, the small of lilacs and gardenias in the air.
Ms. Phillips has taken this one place, Willow Row, and woven an intricate story of love, pain, heartbreak, and strength and laugh out loud moments that I will not soon forget. I applaud her and it is a book EVERY WOMAN SHOULD READ.
5 Stars Lisa Phillips"

"Elizabeth St. Claire grew up as one "The St. Claires" in the small South Carolina town of Willow Row, where the old south is not dead and there is no new money but old money. She hated it and couldn't wait to get out, and she got out in a big way. Much to her daddy's dismay, she went to The University of Tennessee, she married an outsider, moved to Atlanta and comes back to Willow Row only once or twice a year when she must.
Now, a divorced woman, she returns to Willow Row to attend the funeral of one of only two people there that she can truly say she misses, her grandmother Celeste. Celeste was the grand dame of the family, she lived in "the big house" and really didn't care much for the elite of Willow Row. She adored Lizzie, and she and her home were Lizzie's refuge. Little does Lizzie know but Celeste has one more trick up her sleeve and even from the grave, the irrepressible old gal will not go quietly into the good night, not Celeste, she is going to stir the pot up good and enjoy every moment of the results from where ever she is.
Ms. Phillips takes the reader to the Old South that most don't know still exists, a world of good manners, soft spoken women with a spine of steel, men who open doors, a place where no matter how old you get you still call your parents mama and daddy. A land of hot days and lazy nights and underneath it all the stuff of soap operas. This is not the south of the Housewives of Atlanta; no this is the south reminiscent of The Long Hot Summer and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Being a southerner, this is the south I grew up in, and Ms. Phillips has captured that long lost south perfectly. Lizzie and her family are like most families of the old south, to the public eye they are perfect, but behind those closed doors of their perfect homes, they are one big dysfunctional mess.
Lizzie is the oldest of three children, she writes children's books and doesn't think she lives up to the family standards. In actuality, she is the rock of the family. Grandmother Celeste knew this, and decided the only way Lizzie was ever going to come into her own was to give her a little boost. Too bad she had to die to do it.
Lizzie's mama is 65 years old, sleek and polished, always dressed properly and thanks to Marcie at the Snip N Curl, never a hair out of place; she has to have a drink now and again to get through the days. Daddy looks like a young Gary Cooper, he owns a prosperous law firm and to Lizzie is "her knight in shining armor with a white horse parked at another woman's door".
Sister Cassie was homecoming queen at USC, perfect wife and perfect mother to two perfect children, she and Lizzie couldn't be more different. Brother Ashton, at 32 years old, is a partner in Daddy's law firm, well built and good looking he's spoiled rotten and stole Lizzie's heart as a toddler. He is the other person in Willow Row Lizzie feels is hers.
Their household is rounded out with Grace, she was one of Celeste's strays and raised Daddy, after his marriage, she moved in with them to help raise Lizzie and her siblings, and basically run the house. Other than the family, we will get to know Julia, Grace's granddaughter who works in Daddy's law firm as well, and was raised as a member of the family with the St. Claire children.
And then there is Celeste's ace in the hole, Brady Ralston. He's a contractor she hired to work on her house, and if Celeste has her way, he will be much more than that to Lizzie. What a wonderful group of people Ms. Phillips has given us to meet and enjoy, all with their little hidden secrets, all so deliciously southern and wrong. I loved each and every one of them.
This book is chock full of southernisms, trust me when I say it is spot on and felt like home to me. Yes, we call all soft drinks coke (even if they are 7up) except if we are eating a moon pie – then you have an RC Cola. After Lizzie had settled back in, she ran around in cotton dresses with her shoes off and her hair down. As I write this review, I'm sitting with my shoes off, in a sundress which is the uniform of any southern lady worth her salt and still smiling over my visit with Lizzie and the Family. You don't have to be southern to enjoy this book. This is a story of one woman's coming into her own and the world she lives in, warts and all."

My grandmother wasn't one to pamper any of us. Tight as Dick's hatband, Aunt Virginia's husband, Uncle Murray, would mutter under his breath. Celeste figured if you had the St. Claire name it should be enough to get the ball rolling for you. After all, her life certainly took a turn for the better once she became one.
Celeste wasn't born into wealth and social acceptability. The Covington's aren't listed anywhere on the social register. According to Mama, great granddaddy on that branch of the family tree was lucky not to have swung by his neck from it. Evidently he made a mean home brew, and folks knew he was the go-to-guy for a snoot full. The one thing Celeste's mother did have to offer her only child was the determination my grandmother would do more with her life. And that could mean only one thing.
Marry up, darlin'!
Celeste being the cigarette girl with legs up to her pretty neck at the Willow Row Country Club was no coincidence. She said choosing from the well to do young men always trying to gain her attention was easy. My sweet granddaddy was the only one who took her to fancy restaurants where folks would see them together and actually wanted to have a conversation. With her.
It worked out well for everyone. Celeste's mother approved of the heir to St. Claire Textiles, granddaddy got a wife he loved as well as liked, and Celeste got to be a St. Claire. Nobody…and I mean nobody was, is, or will ever be a St. Claire like my grandmother.
She moved into the big house long before my great grandparents passed on. The Family says there was talk of Granddaddy building her a home closer to her parents in Charleston, but Celeste liked the big house just fine, thank you very much. By the time twin girls, Virginia and Caroline, arrived my great grandparents were laid to rest, and Celeste had accomplished every dream her mama ever had for her.
Slowly but surely she began to put her own spin on century old family traditions. She faithfully attended the First Baptist Church of Willow Row, but didn't hide the bottle of whiskey on her closet shelf, swearing it was strictly for medicinal purposes. She was known to frequent places usually reserved for… Well, let's just say places no well-bred young lady would be caught dead. She didn't only hire African Americans to work in her home. She invited them to charity dinners, to sit with her at church, and to her annual Memorial Day cookout. She talked Rudy Marshall, the first African American man to run for political office in Willow Row, into campaigning for a seat on the city council. And he won.
Celeste made sure of that.
She didn't wear conservative suits and a hat to church every Sunday. When Emily Henderson suggested she might be too old to be wearing hemlines above the knee, my grandmother showed up at Daddy's law school graduation in a miniskirt and black thigh boots. Mama says Aunt Virginia and Aunt Caroline fainted, but Aunt Beth secretly enjoyed every minute of it.
When Granddaddy died was the first time I ever saw Celeste cry. Not just the polite tears swiped from a cheek when a member of The Family we hardly know dies. These were tears of cold, clawing grief. The sight of them still lingers in my memory. I saw them only one other time. The day I packed my Mustang for Tennessee, she slipped a check for five thousand dollars into my hand. Those tears nearly had me unpacking, and fulfilling Daddy's dream of his firstborn treading the campus of the University of South Carolina. I'd come home on weekends with the young man of Mama's dreams, and live the life folks said I deserved whether I wanted it or not…
That wasn't what Celeste wanted for me. I knew she was betting on me, so I got into that Mustang, and drove until the big house grew smaller and smaller behind me.
There were visits that grew less frequent as she got older, and didn't much like to travel. And there were the rare times I'd come home out of sheer remorse. But, every Thursday evening my phone rang. We'd spend exactly an hour discussing what I thought to be a fairly ordinary life. Somehow Celeste never found me ordinary in any way. It was years before I realized what my grandmother found so fascinating about my life was the choices were mine. Good or bad, the choices were my own.
Most of them anyway.
I stop my Explorer in the driveway, waiting for the screen door to fly open. Of course it doesn't, which is exactly why I can't believe she thought I would want this. There are tire tracks all over the front lawn, and stacks of sheets of plywood in front of the four-car garage that was once a carriage house. It houses two Lincolns and an old beat up Ford truck, but Mama and Aunt Virginia insist on referring to it as the carriage house.
Ashton says while enjoying a good drunk once, Daddy admitted I was conceived in the carriage house. For no other reason, it is a carriage house to me. I did the math as soon as I was old enough to subtract. Mama was no blushing virgin on her wedding night either.
I decide the dock will be as good a place as any to get a glimpse of what in the world Celeste could have been thinking. In the backyard bright blue tarps are stretched over more stacks of wood, saw horses scattered here and there. The worn path to the greenhouse winds around withering orchids and tomato plants in old pots littering rickety tables lining a cement slab. Past a hedge of forsythia and a crumbling stonewall hardly visible beneath honeysuckle vines, the path leads to a dock and a pond with catfish big enough to mount and brag about.
The dock sways as I step onto it. I wonder briefly if it will hold. My brother, sister and I would fish here with chicken livers for the catfish, and fried bologna sandwiches and cherry cokes for us. Well, Ashton and I would fish, and Cassie would bitch about the mosquitoes.
And there under the willows dancing at the water's edge, I believed Matthew Olsen when he said he would marry me no matter what Mama said. I thought I'd become a woman that hot summer night with the crickets singing and fat frogs croaking on the bank. It was seven weeks later I learned I'd become so much more.
Of course, Mama took care of that.
Kicking off my sneakers, I roll up the legs of my jeans to drop my feet into the cold, murky water. I gently press the envelope between my hands like a priceless jewel as minnows nibble my toes. I might as well get it over with. Nothing in this envelope can undo that big house being empty, but I like to pretend for a moment it can.
"Good God, Elizabeth, just get on with it."
I freeze, the envelope fluttering to the rough, gray planks of the dock.
I refilled my prescription before I left Georgia, but was optimistic I wouldn't need one until exactly an hour before supper. As I try to remember if I put the bottle of Xanax in my purse, I stare at the glimmer of her on the water. Now I know I'm hallucinating. Celeste would never sit on the dock in her best ivory negligee.
"It's all right, honey. I suppose you've already had a hell of a day, so you just take a minute to get your wits about you."
I can hear the water gurgle as she sticks her toes in. The feathered mules fall against my thigh as she drops them. "This cannot be happening," I murmur.
"Damn, this water is cold," she chuckles.
"I'm in mourning." I close my eyes, and lay a hand over my stumbling heart. "This is nothing more than a manifestation of my grief."
"Seeing a shrink every week has done you some good hasn't it, Lizzie?" She tosses her silvery curls over one shoulder. "I never saw much point in it. It doesn't take somebody with lots of degrees on the wall to tell me how screwed up we all are."
"Oh, my God." Opening my eyes, I press a fingertip to her cheek. "I can touch you." I narrow one eye. "Did you stage your own death?" It's not like I haven't thought about it.
"I suspected life held no more surprises for me, honey. And it didn't. But, death… Now there's a surprise." Celeste's blue eyes sparkle as she lets out a throaty laugh.
"Did you go toward the light?" I ask lowly.
"Something like that."
"Then why aren't you in heaven?" My eyes widen as I clutch my heart again. "Don't tell me you're in hell. I knew it!" I exclaim triumphantly. "Willow Row is hell."
"It's not as simple as they say, sugar. I can't be anymore specific, but it isn't just about heaven, or hell." She eyes the envelope between us. "You going to take a peek at that?"
"I don't know." I gnaw on a fingernail as I stare at the envelope.
"Want me to tell you what it says?" She cocks a painted on brow as if she's only asked what I want for supper.
"You're supposed to haunt Aunt Virginia, Celeste." What a gift. I was sure I'd never hear her laugh again. "Okay, what does it say?" This should be good. She'll give me the proof I need to later assure myself I did not see my dead grandmother.
"Let's see." She runs a fingertip over the envelope with a wicked smile. "First of all, it says I know Virginia is going to be madder than a wet hen. Then I go on to try to make you understand how important this is to me."
"It's important to you they draw and quarter me at dawn?" I drawl. "I don't want your house, Celeste. I don't want the pearls, or the china, and I certainly don't want to be present when Mr. Calloway tells The Family that's what you want."
"How's Richard doing?"
Her amusement vanishes. I see the same sorrow in her eyes I saw in his. "Go ask him yourself."
"I wish I could." Looking out over the lake, she pats my back.
"He's sad. I didn't realize the two of you were…"
"The two of us were what?"
"In love."
"Richard was in love," she corrects. "I was lonely. There was only your granddaddy for me, Lizzie." Her face lights with another coy smile. "Now, let me tell you why I've put you in the most precarious of positions."

After a bit of a hiatus, I'm back in the borrowed kitchen. I was in the grand city of NY for a few days at a glam media blogger event for my edible crafts column (check out my posts here and here). But now I'm back on cookies. Well, brownies. I do have a rather long story, the details of which I'll spare you, of a heated exchange with an angry customer when working as a cookie decorator. She insisted the brownie should be considered a cookie and was horribly distraught we did not offer them. As it suits my purpose to consider the brownie a cookie for this post (a bar cookie?), I'll give her this one for today only.
These brownie bites are veeeery easy to make. You can use any recipe for brownies or even a mix, though you can find my recipe at the end of this post. I cut out brownie circles, topped them with melted candy wafers, and decorated with M & Ms. That's it.
how to make decorated brownies
you will need:
brownies (see below for my recipe, any are fine)
circle cookie cutter (1 1/2″)
white candy melts or white chocolate chips (find the melts in craft stores)
baking sheet
wax paper
wire rack
M & Ms, sprinkles, or any other candies to decorate
step one: make your brownies
Find my recipe at the end of this post, but you can use any you like. Let brownies cool for about 20 minutes. Line a baking tray with wax paper and place the wire rack on top. When brownies are still a bit warm, use circle cutter to cut shapes. Press cutters firmly to bottom of pan, twist a bit, and lift up. Brownie should stay in cutter! Gently push brownie out of cutter onto the wire rack to fully cool. (I used a couple sizes, but the small ones work best.)
step two: top your brownies
Melt candy melts or white chocolate on top of a double boiler or in the microwave according to directions. I microwaved in a Pyrex measuring cup at half power for 1 minute, 30 seconds, then at 30 second intervals, stirring well. Don't overheat! With a small spoon, pour a bit of melted candy or chocolate in center of brownie top and gently spread with a knife to edges. Let set about 15 minutes.
step three: decorate your brownies
When melts or chocoate are still a bit wet, decorate the brownies with candies or sprinkles as desired. For daisies, use 6 M&Ms–one in the center, 5 around.
brownie recipe:
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. water
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs
Combine flour, baking soda and salt and set aside. In saucepan, heat together butter, sugar and water and bring just to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of chocolate chips and the vanilla. Transfer to bowl and beat in eggs, one at a time. Gradually blend in dry ingredients. Stir in remaining chocolate chips. Pour into greased 9″ baking dish and bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for 30 to 35 minutes.
Feel free to share (nicely)! While my blog's photographs and text are protected by copyright, I do allow (and encourage) you to share ONE photograph with credit to "the decorated cookie" and link to this blog post. PLEASE don't reprint any part of the blog post and PLEASE don't post a photo without credit. Thank you!

Country: USA
Abstract: It is estimated that 178,700 American women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 1998. A large proportion of these women will receive adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and/or hormonal therapy based on evidence indicating that such treatment extends disease-free survival as well as overall survival. As more women receive adjuvant treatment, there is growing recognition of the potential for long-term side effects. Along these lines, it has been shown that administration of adjuvant chemotherapy can result in secondary leukemia, cardiotoxicity, and ovarian failure. Clinical observations and a limited number of research reports suggest that persistent fatigue may also be a long-term side effect of adjuvant chemotherapy. Although fatigue has been identified as one of the most frequent and distressing symptoms affecting breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy, relatively little is known about its characteristics, etiology, or treatment. We propose to address these issues by conducting the first controlled, longitudinal study of fatigue in breast cancer patients before, during, and after adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment. Women with early stage breast cancer scheduled to receive adjuvant treatment will be recruited and undergo a baseline assessment before the start of chemotherapy. Additional assessments will be performed during the course of chemotherapy and before and during a subsequent course of radiotherapy. Following completion of radiotherapy, patients will continue to be monitored for six months. An age-matched sample of women with no history of cancer will be recruited and monitored over a six-month period for comparison purposes. These data will be used: 1) to determine the severity, chronicity, and course of fatigue associated with adjuvant treatment of breast cancer; 2) to characterize the cognitive, affective, and behavioral manifestations of fatigue that persists following completion of adjuvant treatment; and 3) to test the utility of a cognitive-behavioral model designed to explain the perpetuation of fatigue following completion of adjuvant treatment. Preliminary analyses of study data are expected to provide empirical support for adaptation and pilot testing, during the final months of funding, of a cognitive-behavioral intervention originally developed for chronic fatigue syndrome for use with breast cancer patients experiencing persistent fatigue related to adjuvant treatment.
Funding Period: 1999-09-01 - 2004-05-31

Super Smash Bros. 3DS And Wii U Versions To Be Shown At E3
Posted on Thursday, January 24 @ 14:14:29 Eastern by Alex_Osborn
This June, we'll be getting a double dose of Nintendo's upcoming brawler, as both the 3DS and Wii U versions of Super Smash Bros. 4 will make an appearance at E3 2013.
Series director Masahiro Sakurai revealed the news on Twitter, which is translated as saying, "Wii U and 3DS versions -- I would like to show you both. Other games have had visuals shown, but you still have to wait for Smash Bros. But we'll be able to release something better."
Just yesterday, it was revealed that we would be seeing the next Super Smash during this summer's expo, but only in the form of some screenshots. Sakurai's comments however, lead us to believe that there may actually be a little bit more in store for fans of the franchise. Regardless, we'll know soon enough, as E3 will be here before you know it.

The Beaufort County Board of Education has selected three finalists in its search for a new superintendent:
Gloria J. Davis is currently the superintendent of the 9,100-student Decatur Public Schools in Decatur, Ill.
Kathryn LeRoy is the director of high school programs for the 125,000-student Duval County Public Schools in Jacksonville, Fla.
Jeffrey Moss is the superintendent of the 9,850-student Lee County Schools in Sanford, N.C.
The three finalists were selected from a pool of seven candidates interviewed by the Board earlier this week. Those seven were chosen from a pool of 122 applications.
Each finalist will visit Beaufort County for a second interview with the Board, a meeting with district employees and a public forum that will be televised live on the Beaufort County Channel.
Officials have made some changes to those forums. The new schedule is:
At each forum, that night's featured candidate will make a brief opening statement and then answer questions from audience members.
Questions will alternate between live audience members and television viewers who submit their queries via e-mail.
The public will be able to comment on the finalists using paper forms at the forums or electronic forms that will be posted to the school district's website beginning next Tuesday, Feb. 12.

Cheer leading sexualized Kids
But see there is an ugly side to it as well.... Lets face it At the college level or higher have you ever seen an ugly cheerleader ...UM no... Have you ever seen a fat one..... No.... Yes some may carry a bit of weight but they aren't fat but I bet they are solid and have huge tits that fit their build.... So what does this say to young ladies well I think it says you have to look like this to do this.... I think that can be driving force to be fit but can also lead to other problems But not like modeling cause being thin if you don't have the strength to dance and lift people is no good....
The Point that all cheerleaders at least from College on are hot is what gets me to my point. Are they there cause they love the school.... Or is it to keep tabs on their athlete boy friends.... What ever the reason in the end it comes down to that Men watch them and are entertained by them... Hey when your team is playing bad it is a good distraction and in some sports might get fans into the game.... Again the point here is that these women are showing off there stuff to men.... It isn't like I'm licking this sucker that is way bigger then your cock and since I can take it in a can swallow you and your balls..... But there is still a sexual under current there of showing off the goods and moves to men..... Well when you have the JR. Team out on the field that is what you are doing... When you get kids ready for that you are teaching them to show off the goods.... That is just wrong......
I get that the hot sexy Cheer leaders in high school need to learn from some program some place.... But again here is a case where young High School Girls get to show off their stuff at football and Basketball games.... Granted to other students not a big deal but what about when the 3 dads are all checking out the girls that aren't their daughter.... Or in many cases it is dads or moms in some cases that come out to watch someone they know play the sport and as a side thing check out the hot underage girls.... I admit not sure how cheer leading in High School is now but I'm sure everyone who makes the squad is fully developed and look like they could be in College... Dad or Mom or whomever can't tell 16-19 looks wise I mean they know they are underage but looks sure do fool them....
So Yes I do think that kids are sexualized by cheer leading and they don't even know it... At some point and I have no idea at what age they put on make up and those outfits....
On a side note Penn & Teller had a great episode of their show Bullshit about Cheer leading and about how it is not considered a sport when it should be......

First Day of Baseball
The Bisons open up a week from today and even though it is a 3pm game it is a good reason to take the day off... Hope there is no snow or rain or high winds and that I can enjoy the game and a Burger or maybe some Mexican (there was a moe's there not sure if there still is) not really a hot dog guy......
For those with Passports go to Toronto to see a game it is fun and if you want to see it from a different perspective get those 9 dollar seats it is almost like a video game where you are looking down at everything it is really trippy ...... You can go there for more then just a game as well..... Baseball is so much better in person and Yes $20-25 to park but if you are going to do other stuff not a big deal...... There is a way to get a ticket to watch from the Hard Rock Cafe windows but not sure how that works.... I also have seen a game in Cleveland.... From seeing games here it makes it seem like Dunn Tire Park was built backwards like sitting in the seats you should be able to see downtown .........
As I said before I wish I could get into Baseball on TV. I admit I'm a Costas fan and think he does a great job.... But even so I just can't get into baseball on TV I have watched it but.... I think part of it is the delays.... See in a ballpark there is a pitch you look to see if you judged it correctly when people are on bases you have that to watch...... But on TV all of that is done for you and once you learn how to read that graphic you know the count and what bases people are on aren't so the delay's seem slow..... I also think that some how the action of stealing a base is lost.......
Back to the long season.... I never played Baseball in a league so maybe I don't get this nor did a play in school.... But to me baseball is a summer thing not a spring fall and almost winter thing..... I think some sports are to long and there is to much of them.... Same is true with hockey at Club Daiblo this was mentioned slightly that hockey should be over when the ice is soft like in June.... I think that is cause the playoffs take so long since they play every other day........
Baseball does for some reason make great Movies..... Basketball, Major League, Field Of Dreams (not really about baseball at all) and others I have never seen........
How Did Bob Uker become Mr Baseball?
Why Isn't Pete Rose in the Hall Of Fame?
How come did "The Chicken" Lose San Diago ..... and be more Famous then the Team?
I don't know what it is that even with drug abuse there is still something pure about baseball.... Maybe that it isn't a contact sport? Maybe it is the fresh cut grass and that smell? maybe it is how the field is cut so nice and the lines are perfect and you can watch the field come together........
I admit I have no means into Canada and I won't go to that many bisions games but Baseball is great and even as it snows it some how marks a new beginning ..........

Pictures from Previous Post?
Ok Picture one showed up lets us hope it works at the end as well.....
Currently it looks like it is working..... I think what happened last time is I went to Sean Madden's band page and something crashed there so it messed up here.... Brook D'angelo is the lady who is on stage again not sure I know how to tell you what her music is like it is kinda like cover songs but she spices them up? Below is the freakness if you like or want to see Sean Madden's art you can look him up on face book or do the google thing or go to Clownvomit.org
Ok they are added so lets home this works.........
Now Assuming when I hit publish that it works this time... I was hoping I wouldn't have to re drag and drop the photos but I had to since they weren't in my album I mean gallery so I just retried this.... Then I'll put the other attempts to draft status aka Private.........

Why I love Buffalo
I admit that a lot of the suggestions I have no Idea what to write... I thought about this one and I was going to write about the hot weather and how all the fine buffalo ladies like to wear those little tops and small shorts or other out fits that show off the ink and or the boobs or those long lovely legs.....
But then It dawned on me as much as I love summer and hate winter what I really love about Buffalo is.......................The Snow!
Granted the Shoveling it is tough as I just found out.... That being said it is good exercise... I'm guessing it is better for you then "The Gym" well unless of course you are one of those lucky people you hear about that use "The Gym" also as a hook up spot or at least the meeting place......
Walking on Ice sucks but that is kinda like a sub plot to the snow and will be ignored.....
The Snow is pretty and make things look nice.... Yes some say it makes things look dirty.... But that is really the lack of a fresh coat hiding the dirty snow.....
I admit that I hate the cold and love being warm... But see the cold is that it is winter and that is different then the snow except like today when it was blowing in my face on the way to work....
Thinking back to when I was better still not great mind you at dealing with cold like when I was a kid snow was great... Snowball fights , sledding, Cross Country Skiing , Tried Downhill skiing (fun but chair lifts are scary) [couldn't go fast enough to have lots of fun]....... I think that part of the not being able to deal with the cold is lack of a car.... Now at first that sounds crazy.... But if I drove (4 wheel or all wheel still not sure what the difference is) I think I would never stopped skiing... Or who knows maybe I would have tried Snow Boarding and broke my neck.... But I think that if once snow hit I was on a Mountain ok a small hill maybe I would love the snow and be there like everyday after work.... Ok maybe Every Friday.....
There is kinda a side reason why I like snow. Any place you live has weather one has to deal with. I think snow is the least deadly of those. Say you live in Miami or some lovely warm place and you need a bus or something and are running late and see a bus and run or something that heat might kill you if you don't soak your shirt for the meeting you are going to... You live in the lovely (been there a few times) out banks and you have to worry about the Ocean Taking away your house..... I don't know as I could deal with living someplace where I would have to keep huge boards in my house and nail guns and have an escape plan ready for every year.........

Car as Hauler
Don't get me wrong I am happy not driving... There is to much to deal with on the road. Not to Mention Gas... Insurance.... And fixing the thing up.....
What I think a car is best for really is Hauling stuff.... If I got one that would be the reason... For example I could go to Target and buy all kinds of shelving stuff well not tons but a few.... Then over to Tops and get the food.... Then stop over and Run into zillycakes......
The Other use is kinda a sub use to Hauling and that is storage. Say you go to The Fair or Music Is Art or Allentown or what ever and you buy Art Or maybe a huge Blue Sand Castle or what ever with a car you can just go out and put the stuff in and not have to carry it as you watch the pig races or eat that fried cheese cake or what ever...
What got me thinking about this Is I'm going to an Art Show On Friday I think well more then an art show it is at Club Diablo.... What I'm debating is Yes to Pictures and Drinks and looking at art but do I really want to Buy art...... Sean Madden is amazing (Thanks to (e:Heidi) who told me about 464 Gallery and I think Marcus Wise is a member of (e:strip) but he Never posts.... Think I have seen a Picture of (e:Terry) wearing one of his shirts it is a gun and liquor bottle I think). According to the Weather it might be raining on Saturday and do I want to take a chance and get it wet... Also if I buy something do I want to chance spilling Drink on it..... I assume stuff will be being sold....
I know most people would say what is good about a car is the freedom of being able to go places.... Yes there are places that a bus can't take you but you kinda learn to deal with that... Good example is Darian Lake as nice as all the shows are do I really want to sit trying to get out of a lot for an hour... Yes When I went to Metallica, Days of the New and Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains) it was an hour...... After some time you learn places you go and places you don't.... Say I did have a car I wouldn't have the money to go to those shows anyways....
So The Point is a car as a way to get somewhere even though that is the reason for them but they help the most with I think is hauling stuff..... I got interrupted So I lost some of my point argh oh well.....

With the Rangers taking on the cellar dwelling (who'd of thought we'd say that) Devils in part two of "Magical Mystery Tour" through the metro area teams why not take a quick non competitive look at the red headed step child from that industrial waste dump known as New Jersey
Let's start with Logos
The Rangers classic shield has barely changed in the 85 years that they have been in existence and has often been said that the rangers shield is one of the best logos in not only hockey but all of sports..I mean come on...this thing is awesome
The Devils logo has remained the same over the course of their existence. The only change occurred when the Devils went from celebrating Christmas all year long to going to a more clean look of red and black for the rest of their days (so far)
Outdated traditions that are still aimed at the opposing team
C'mon...Potvin Sucks is classic and will never, ever die
They just killed a great children's nursery rhyme
Goal Horns
I've yet to hear anything more original than the Rangers goal horn, and I mean what they play at the Garden and not the crappy recorded version
Kind of frenetic at the beginning there huh? I wonder how much Gary Glitter makes every time a team uses his song...do they realize they are paying for pedophilia?
One thing the Rangers are very good at is keeping the history making players around. You always see guys like Brian Leetch, Adam Graves, Rod Gilbert, and others around MSG and around the team, hell Rod just celebrated his 50th anniversary with the team
All of the team's legends are either too concussed to get out of bed in the morning (Scott Stevens), proving that former hockey players aren't the greatest analysts for the new NHL (Ken Daneyko) or just won't go away (Patrick Elias, Fatso)
Home Arenas
"The World's Most Famous Arena" may have lost most of its luster with the Rangers being the Rangers and the Knicks doing their best Barnum and Bailey's impersonation, but it still is one of the best places to watch a sporting event and the crowds are always rowdy
The brand spanking new Prudential Center (AKA the Rock, AKA the Pebble, AKA that place where no one goes to watch the Devils lose hockey games) has a lot going for it as a sports arena and entertainment center. Too bad it has a lot going against it; namely the fact that the Devils and Nets deem it worthy to call it home, the fact that the arena is located in downtown Newark, and the fact that no in the state of New Jersey gives a shit about both teams
Ranger fans are in two extremes, the fans that are educated and can have a good discussion of the game while giving credit where credit is due (outside the Atlantic Division of course), or the guys who they show on that video before games at MSG where they scream "I AM A RANGER"...some how I don't think they quite get it. Also Ranger fans have a high emotional tolerance and high blood pressure built up from years of dealing with Glen Sather and roller coaster play from the team
Wait...there are actual Devils fans? Not people who have been kidnapped and forced to sit in the seats? I guess it's fitting that the Devils are named after a New Jersey folklore because the inclination that the Devils actually have fans is a myth in and of itself
Taunts that will always annoy the rival teams
All the Rangers have to say to get Devil fans riled up is "LOL, you play in New Jersey" if they could find a Devils fan that is
Most Devils fans would throw their recent Stanley Cup wins in our face...but again if you could find a Devils fan let me know because I haven't seen one in seven years (coincidently, the last time they won a cup...coincidence?)
Well that about does it for this edition of the non statistical, non competitive comparison series. I would like to say a few nice things about Lou Lamorillo, about how he's run a model organization with no fan base, or how he's always put together a contending team. But I guess the toxic fumes have begun to take full effect on old Lou and its beginning to show

St. Louis Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo made an appearance at the Dallas media center for the 2011 Super Bowl. He talked a little bit about the two quarterbacks in this game -- Pittsburgh Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger and Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers -- as well as the Rams return to relevance.
In 2009, the Rams were 1-15 which gave them the No. 1 pick in the 2010 NFL draft. That pick of course went to QB Sam Bradford, who picked up the AP rookie of the year award. Bradford also made the rounds at Super Bowl week on Radio Row.
Spagnuolo noted that while the Rams went 7-9 and that's a big improvement, it's still a losing record. He says they're going in the right direction and obviously hope to be here soon.
Spagnuolo should know a thing or two about a Super Bowl. He was part of the New York Giants Super Bowl winning team when they toppled the New England Patriots. He's looking for another ring but as head coach this time.

San Jose SaberCats Versus Spokane Shock
I haven't tried it, the AFL tweeted this link. The SaberCats are an AFL franchise in San Jose, playing the first game of their season. I'd be watching this even if there wasn't NFL CBA issues. Just making you folks aware. SaberCats lead 14-7 at the time of posting.

CATEGORIES Movies(1) I had fun. First of all, the tv camera was an exquisitely unreliable even confused narrator. It kept flashing reaction shots of contenders who didn't wind up winning -- Martin Scorsese and George Clooney for starters.
The camera was sneaky in other ways -- we saw an uncomfortable Steven Spielberg (director of Schindler's List and a force behind the U.S. Holocaust Museum) watch Iranian filmmakers collect an Oscar.
(2) Billy Crystal is a great entertainer. Maybe next year they can splice and broadcast his bits from this and previous years and save money.
(3) Meryl Streep has a sly shoulder shrug -- head turned toward that shoulder -- that is the closest I've seen anyone come to miming a classy f*** you. The first time I saw her do it was in a production of The Taming of the Shrew at the Public Theater. Last night she did it again while accepting her Oscar. She was dismissing detractors who she figured were probably saying "her again." Her great-looking husband Don Gummer looks like he runs a European country -- totally competently. What did you notice?


text: I guess the bucs are shopping him around, for a mid round pick. He could add some strong depth behind Miller, and be the #2 in 2 TE sets. I am not sure how strong of a player he is, since I haven't paid attention to him since he was a brown, but wanted to see what everybody thought?
