Killing several fatted calves with one stone
Saturday 27 May 1995
This regime will, as it were, kill several birds with one stone: it saves the lives of countless fish; it contributes to world harmony, reducing by a small percentage the size of the catch that all those bolshy Atlantic trawlermen argue over; and it makes me feel like a good person, which is far more important to vegetarians than feeling like a healthy person.
The one problem is veal. In the current climate, it's quite difficult for anyone to feast on a recently slaughtered calf and feel like a good person. As part of the research for this review, I even tried it the other night. Animal Crackers (BBC2) is in the third week of an imaginative attempt to hear all sides of the topical argument. So far we've had, in 15-minute bursts, the campaigner and the farmer. Next week, doubtless to tie in with The Vet (BBC1, tomorrow), we get the vet. The week after, God help us, it's the theologian.
Last night was the turn of the cook Jennifer Paterson. This game old bird sportingly underwent a tasting test involving white veal, the anaemic variety that has a bum ride in planes from Coventry and ships from Brightlingsea. She sampled slices of veal and pork which lurked under an overbearing mushroom sauce. Needless to say, she identified the veal as pork and the pork as veal. When even a cook doesn't know which dead animal she's eating, the abolitionists have their best case yet for imposing a ban on veal consumption. Let them eat pig, except in certain parts of north London.
After that, it all fell into place: a programme granting the platform to a notorious flesh-eater was the work of a crack troop of undercover veggivores. These are vegetarian secret agents, planted all over the media, who like to sink their teeth into meat-eaters.The Spectator's cookery writer was an irresistibly juicy meal.
As we watched the crash-helmeted Paterson mount her chugging moped and charge off in search of ossobuco at the butcher, the soundtrack caught the thrill of the chase with snatches of a hunting tune from a Mozart horn concerto. Some satire is performed with a forklift truck; this was done with a tuning fork.
But in the task of taking the mickey, the veggivores had some unwitting assistance from the lady herself. She stole the theologian's thunder by saying the Bible sanctions meat-eating. If you read the small print closely enough, you'll probably find that the Good Book lets you visit all sorts of atrocities on the fatted calf before you kill it.
And anyway, she added, "the average vegetarian I know looks jolly ill". You had to see her saying this to appreciate the full absurdity of the statement. Why is it that only the fatter carnivores think of meat-eating as a keep-fit class you can do in your own kitchen?
This spat will run and run, rather like the witnesses for the defence of veal crates summoned by Patterson. "They take expensive racehorses in aeroplanes," she offered. So they do. And then they deliver them direct to an abattoir, where they are summarily executed, strung up and hacked into bite-sized pieces. Like most of the arguments crammed into this small space and shipped onto your screen, that point is known as a Red Rum: an old chestnut that's long ago been put out to grass.

Inside football: Drill Field's disputed place in record books
Thursday 30 December 1999
The club was planning a year of events to celebrate this remarkable genesis of the world's great game at its modest mid-Cheshire ground, hemmed in now between semi-detached suburbia and a Kwik-Save car park. Northwich's history tracks much of football's own - its eruption in the 1870s from upper-class, amateur recreation to passionately supported, professionally played game of the masses.
As founder members, in 1892, of the Football League Second Division, the Vics struggled to keep up with big city clubs whose wider catchment areas meant bigger gates and, consequently, more money to pay for better players. In 1894 they dropped back to amateur or semi-pro football where they have been stalwarts ever since, selling to Manchester City their greatest-ever player, Billy Meredith, arguably football's first star, who played until he was 50.
Dave Thomas, the Vics' general manager, planned a dinner as centrepiece for the 125th anniversary, commissioning 200 commemorative plates for guests to pay a little extra to keep forever. Graham Gooch was provisionally booked to speak. "We'd have got a big star in as well," sighs Thomas, ruefully.
The party began to be pooped this summer, with letters to the Northwich Chronicle contesting the Vics' precise date of formation and the claim about the Drill Field contained in the late Ken Edwards' 1992 history of the club. Detail by detail, the claims have been unpicked by two local historians, Paul Lavell and the redoubtable Colin Lynch, 70, a retired lorry driver who claims to have read every issue of the local papers since 1861, eight times.
They have pored over original newspapers, plans and documents in a rigorous search for historical accuracy - or, according to some Vics fans, a soulless exercise in nit-picking. They have unearthed sufficient detail to seriously undermine the Vics' claims. In 1890 the club merged with another local club, Hartford and Davenham United, in order to compete with powerful new professional outfits at Crewe and Chester. Lavell insists that this involved the original club being wound up, handing the Cheshire Challenge Cup to Northwich Library, which had been promised should the club ever become "defunct". This break, according to Lavell, strictly makes the Vics 109, not 125, years old. Clive Penny, a Vics supporter, argues that the club remained affiliated to the Cheshire FA, but the row rumbled on into December, unresolved, scuppering the anniversary plans.
The Drill Field claim also appears to have crumbled. Edwards' first belief was that the Drill Field was the world's oldest surviving ground, a claim accepted in writing by the FA in October 1989. Later he modified it: Sheffield Hallam's Sandygate ground (1860), and Bramall Lane (1863) predate the Drill Field. However, as Hallam had a break between the wars, and Sheffield Wednesday played at Bramall Lane before Sheffield United, Edwards produced his somewhat tortuous claim that the Drill Field was "the oldest senior ground continuously played on by one club".
Lynch argues that the Vics had a nine-year break during the wars, and have shared the ground with four other clubs. Since then, the FA appears to have accepted Maidenhead's prior claim to have played on their York Road ground since 1871. Now Lynch says another original amateur club, Reigate Priory, may predate Maidenhead, having played at their ground continuously since 1869.
Many at the Drill Field mutter that the hidden hand of bitter local rivals Witton Albion is behind this little local difficulty, but both historians deny this, saying they are Vics fans interested only in establishing the facts: "Historians have never given football the attention it deserves," Lavell says. "Club histories have tended to be written by fans or directors. The process is only beginning now of really documenting the game's history."
The current Vics chairman, Rod Stitch, rolls his eyes at the very mention of the controversy. His concerns are more immediate - a constant struggle to stay afloat in the current age of wage inflation, even in the Conference, where players are increasingly full-time and have agents. He became chairman in 1995, shortly after the Vics' directors and supporters had raised more than pounds 150,000 to save the Drill Field from a property developer. The Drill Field Trust, funded with appeals and contributions from ordinary fans, is still trying to preserve the ground's future.
Yet now the club is in trouble again; Stitch recently admitted it was losing pounds 2,000 a week. At Tuesday's local derby against Altrincham, fans were asked for contributions to meet the pounds 20,000 needed to pay the players between now and the Vics' next home game in February. "It's a constant struggle," Stitch says. "If you don't pay the wages, players will go to clubs who will, then you can't compete."
He bemoans the money pouring into football at the top: "Greed is ruining the game, turning it from the working mans' game into a corporate entertainment activity. You have to question the motivation of directors at that level who make money for themselves. Much more should trickle down: two weeks of Roy Keane's wages and we would prosper."
The anniversary would have been a nice money-spinner, lost now to minutiae in which Stitch struggles to be interested. "We should have a definitive ruling from the FA to clear up whether 1890 constitutes a break. But it's a shame the year's been ruined."
Tuesday's Altrincham game, the last on the Drill Field this century, was played without sentiment or ceremony, 200 plates piling up, obsolete and unsold, in Dave Thomas's office. Kenny Boyd, the Tannoy announcer, no longer welcomes people to the "World's oldest ground", promising, instead, "the hits of the last century" - which turned out, at half-time, to be "Tiptoe through the Tulips" and "There's no-one quite like Grandma".
Freezing rain came down on a fierce local derby, dominated, as ever, by the flicks and subtlety of the Vics captain, Steve Walters, that prompted, on 65 minutes, a late, two-footed assault by Altrincham's Jason Gallagher for which he was sent off. After 89 minutes, the Vics substitute David Gray finally scored, only for Altrincham's own sub, Richard Landon, to equalise two minutes into injury time.
Even if it is not strictly the oldest ground in the world, the Drill Field still made a fitting place to see football out of this millennium; a monument to its real history of a phenomenal growth from amateur roots into the greatest game in the world, with clubs hurtling along, living beyond their means, the rich lording it over the poor, who struggle to survive, even in these satellite television times of unimaginable wealth.
The game has never managed to look up for long enough from its hard competition to preserve itself properly for the future, or even adequately document itself and its history - the great moments, legends, memories, to which it has given life, almost unwittingly.

While Thanksgiving week might be one of the busiest times of the year to fly, not all travelers are taking flight to get home for the holidays. Some are driving their own cars, renting one or even taking to the rails to get to Thanksgiving dinner on time. With a sea of useful travel apps for those flying for the holiday, travelers not up in the air are left to search for their own tools to help them travel for Thanksgiving. Luckily, there are several apps you can use to assist with your Thanksgiving travels even if you aren't flying for the holiday.
Amtrak App: If you aren't taking to the skies for Thanksgiving, you might be going by rail. In that case, you will want to download the Amtrak app. You can access all of the necessary travel information you might need including the status of trains arriving and departing. In the chaos of holiday travel, you might forget to print your ticket. Luckily you can also use the Amtrak app's eTicket feature instead. The app can also inform you about station amenities and hours. It can also help you modify your reservation and upgrade your seat. The Amtrak app is available for the iPhone and Android and comes free of charge.
Waze: If you are hitting the road for your Thanksgiving travels, you will want to know what lies on the road up ahead and how to dodge any problems. Waze is one of the world's largest social based traffic apps. While it helps you navigate, it also aims to point you on the best route to outsmart traffic. The app will alert you before you approach accidents, police, road hazards and traffic jams. You merely need to type in your destination and just drive with the app open. It also features a component where you can find the best gas prices along your route. As Waze is community driven, you can also contribute tips to other drivers on detours you encounter on the road. Waze is available in the iTunes store and on Goggle Play. It is free to download.
Weather.com App: You can encounter any number of problems for Thanksgiving Day travel, one of which being the weather. You don't need to merely know the weather to see if your flight will be delayed but also a detailed weather forecast is essential for travelers going by other modes of transport. While there are dozens of weather apps, the Weather.com app provides plenty of detailed weather forecasts, specifically details within 1.5 miles of your location. The app also allows you to look at the road ahead to see what is on the future radar in the direction you are headed. The app is free to download and can be found on the iPhone, Android, Blackberry and Windows Phone.
Your Car Rental Company's App: Even if you do have to fly for Thanksgiving, you might still have to navigate the roads to your relative's house. In this case, you will want your car rental company's app. Most of the major car rental carriers have an app where you can stay up to date on your reservation. These apps also tend to prove useful when you can't seem to find your reservation and the exact address of your car rental location.

A Dinner Table Mouthful! How to Say 'Bon Appétit' in 15 Languages Across EuropeComments: 0Rating: 0 / 0
The French phrase, "Bon appétit," is often used as a substitute for the lack of an English phrase of the same meaning. While you might hear, "Enjoy your meal," Bon appétit is one of the most common ways of greeting someone before they chow down. As most of the country gets ready to have a Thanksgiving feast, in case you have a few at your table who don't speak English or French for that matter, it is useful to know how to wish someone a good meal in some of France's neighbors. Here's how to say essentially, "Good appetite," in 15 European languages....read more

Five things to know from Macy's earnings call
Send this to a friend
- Tom Demeropolis
- Reporter- Cincinnati Business Courier
- Email | Twitter | Google+ | LinkedIn
Macy's Inc. beat analysts' estimates when it posted fourth-quarter earnings on Tuesday, showing gains in revenue and profit.
Some highlights from Chief Financial Officer Karen Hoguet's conference call on Tuesday with analysts and investors:
1. My Macy's continues to localize store offerings.
Last year, Macy's simplified some of the processes for My Macy's, a localization initiative that started as a pilot program in spring 2008. Hoguet said the company continues to find new ways to increase localization of product offerings. "This is so critical, and frankly, cannot be emulated by the competition," Hoguet said on the earnings call.
2. Omnichannel is working and has room to expand.
Through omnichannel, Macy's is working to get any product to customers seamlessly. Last year, Macy's started to fill orders placed in stores from the inventory either from Macy's online fulfillment center or its stores. Currently, 292 stores are able to fulfill orders, up from 23 a year ago. By fall 2013, Macy's expects about 500 stores will be fulfilling orders. The company expects this process to help it deliver goods to customers faster.
3. Magic Selling is putting emphasis on service, sales.
Magic Selling is the process of improving Macy's employees' ability to sell and giving them more local decision making. The company is working to coach its employees on their selling skills but also encouraging them to sell through omnichannel when a product is not in stock.
4. Business was strong in a number of categories, parts of the country.
Looking at fourth-quarter sales, Macy's strongest categories were handbags, watches, shoes, women's suits, active, men's overall, home textiles, luggage and furniture and mattresses. Private brands also had a good quarter. The best performing parts of the country were the southern markets, as well as Western New York, Oregon and Colorado.

Coulthard: Hamilton must deal with bad luck
Former F1 driver David Coulthard has said that Lewis Hamilton must deal with any bad luck that he may face in Formula 1, after losing more ground to Nico Rosberg in the drivers' championship last weekend in Germany. Hamilton suffered a terrifying brake failure during the first part of qualifying at Hockenheim, and started the race from 20th position. He managed to fight his way through to third place come the chequered flag, but was still despondent in the post-race media sessions after Rosberg won the race and extended his lead over Hamilton to 14 points. Coulthard believes that the Briton has no reason to be disappointed in light of such a superb performance on Sunday. 'Lewis Hamilton...

Englewood Film Festival Hopes To Bring Change To CommunityOctober 8, 2013 // 0 Comments
Most people talk about making the world a better place, but Mark Harris is putting his thoughts into action. Harris, a black filmmaker, organized the Englewood Film Festival three years ago with the hopes that showing positive images on the screen will help to uplift the troubled community.
With high unemployment rates and gun violence, the Chicago neighborhood has had its share of bad press which makes it a challenge to drum up interest for the film festival but Harris is confident in his mission: "We want to put cafes in the community. We want to put bookstores in the community. We want to put health food stores in the community you know, we want to–we want to make Englewood like your Hyde Park or Oak Park, you know, where people come in and see what's going on in Englewood and they can be proud of it."
The Englewood Film Festival is from October 24-October 27th. You can get more information at www.eiff.org.

Veteran will vie for No. 2 job with Luke McCown Brad Biggs
The New Orleans Saints will have some competition for the job behind Drew Brees.
Veteran Seneca Wallace has been added to the mix and he is expected to compete with the previously signed Luke McCown for the No. 2 job that was held by Chase Daniel the previous four seasons.
The Saints announced the addition of Wallace today. He previously got looks this offseason from the Seattle Seahawks and Oakland Raiders. While it would not be surprising if the Saints spent a mid- to late-round selection on a quarterback, the team has more pressing needs and will probably be satisfied with one of the journeymen.
The Cleveland Browns released Wallace at final cutdowns last August. During the season, the Saints had Wallace in for a workout, so the team was intrigued enough to kick the tires on him at the time.

IBM's cloud computer drifts over Georgia and Ohio

Sure it's nice to think about "cloud computing", but why does it have to be called that? And isn't the idea behind cloud computing what people have been aiming at for several decades? You know, the whole sharing resources regardless of physical location bit...
Screw cloud computing. I call it computing. No need for a fancy name that'll just be made fun of in a few years.
Mission Impossible ..... or just Highly Improbable*?
"The research partners will work over virtualization and cloud computing technology until the concepts bend to their collective wills." ........ They are far too late into the game to be able to do that and to think that they have any chance of doing it, is quite delusional.
Although, if they were funding the leaders in the field, they could follow in their footsteps and appear to be in Control ....... which is about as good as IT will IT gets.
I do admire their bravado/sheer cheek, though, even though it be so naive.

Have you tried Internet options, Security. And set them all to default. Or go to advanced while in there and press restore advanced setting see if that helps.
If none of those work try it with your Firewall turned off.

Yesterday PropertyShark posted the above graph ranking the median sales price of co-ops, condos, single-family and two-family homes sold in 2012. Dumbo, previously ranked the most expensive Brooklyn neighborhood, was dethroned by Boerum Hill, which is now the borough's most expensive address and is fifth city-wide, with a median sales price of $950,000. Dumbo, at $869,256, comes in at ninth place overall. Boerum Hill has seen a huge property value increase in the past eight years: since 2004, the price per square foot on residential sales increased by 30 percent. As The Real Deal noted yesterday, sales at 233 Pacific Street (which sold 20 units for more than $1 million each) account for some of the big sales jump. On a related note, you can check out this Property Shark map, just posted, tracking all the co-op and condo sales in Brooklyn in 2012. The map also tracks average price per square foot.

I'd rather see this on a price per sq ft basis.
yeah, doesn't really mean anything. brooklyn neighborhoods are small and don't have that many transactions – so one big sale can skew the median
I've lived in many Brooklyn neighborhoods and Boerum Hill is the most convenient,has the best restaurants, close world-class cultural institutions and in my case anyway, really nice,creative, neighbors. I always thought it was undervalued,but I guess not.
Boring Hill
I suspect this is because most of what sells are townhouses
pretty clear that everyone sees the flaw and error of the headline.
Not true that mostly townhouses sell. There are lots of condo buildings on Atlantic, Schermherhorn, etc. It's just a very small neighborhood with lots of new construction, and, at this point, aside from the housing projects, seems to contain no middle class housing. . . . .

POSSIBLE and MoMA Announce Next Installment of ART140
Creative agency POSSIBLE, in a collaboration with The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), today unveiled its interactive "ART140" visual installation at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. The social experiment was first unveiled at SXSW, with the ART140 website (artoneforty.com) showcasing iconic works of art from MoMA's collection. ART140 encourages everyone worldwide to join the conversation in 140 characters or fewer on Twitter, via the hashtag #art140 along with the hashtag of the artist's name.
"Every day through shared knowledge, digital technology has invited us to participate in culture. This participation has redefined major parts of our society, including knowledge sharing (Wikipedia), photography (Instagram), music (Spotify), and even how we get the news (Twitter)," commented POSSIBLE CEO Shane Atchison. "ART140 has harnessed the power of social media to encourage the public to freely share its perspective, celebrating creativity in its purest form."
The installation itself serves as an interactive art gallery, with visitors able to tweet their opinions about the artworks on display and seeing their tweets print out in real-time - bringing the analog world to the digital world, and vice versa. The new tweets will be measured and analyzed in real time. Insights will be revealed on the ART140 website to illustrate the conversations sparked among the Cannes community during the Festival.
Besides the tweets on display, POSSIBLE is also sharing the following insights about ART140:
- The Stream of Consciousness Index - Analysis determined which tweets reflected a "stream of consciousness" versus those that utilized more conventionally structured language. The familiarity with a specific artwork directly correlated with a higher ranking on the index. Tweets critiquing less familiar artworks resulted in a lower ranking.
- The Highbrow Index - Analysis determined which tweets were the loftiest in tone as well as which artworks attracted the most of these tweets. When compared to tweets relating to entities such as celebrities and popular bloggers, ART140 tweets ranked at the index's lower end, an indication of the decidedly human and straightforward way the art was referenced.
- The Positivity Index - The majority of tweets about ART140 were positive in nature. A work's ranking on the index correlated with the artist's composition and subject matter. Gauguin's Seed of the Areoi ranked highest, partially due to its Tahitian backdrop.
- Time of Day Matters - Different times of day evoked different emotions, with lunch time bringing the "happiest" of tweets. However, the greatest volume of tweets posted at night when the work day ends, especially for Van Gogh's The Starry Night.
"The Stream of Consciousness Index that POSSIBLE devised was unique," said Victor Samra, MoMA's Digital Media Marketing Manager. "It's fascinating to see which artworks elicit a more emotion-based, off-the-cuff response. We look forward to seeing how this project develops."
According to POSSIBLE Group Creative Director Jason Minyo, "With the world as its 'jury,' Cannes is the perfect setting for this creative experiment. The installation and visual representation of our findings clearly show how ART140 has taken the art world to a place never before explored. We anticipate this being the first of many creative ways we continue to give people a social voice that is impactful."
The ART140 installation is open throughout the week of the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity and is located right outside of the Palais on the Parvais. Those not in Cannes are also encouraged to continue participating in the conversation via the hashtag #art140 or visit artoneforty.com.

We finally fulfilled our dream of beating guest stars Insane Clown Posse with a baseball bat. [Oct 2003, p.37]
Fans of the Backyard Wrestling line of DVDs, Insane Clown Posse junkies, and blood fiends should probably go nuts over it...[though it] isn't as fulfilling as it should be.
Could have been one of those great alternatives to the WWE wrestling titles, but its many flaws are just too numerous to make this one any fun.
What could have been a very unique and innovative title failed in several key areas. With a very clunky wrestling/fighting engine that will leave the player frustrated, and more than lackluster visuals, Backyard Wrestling needs plenty of touch-ups.
Attempts to span the chasm between wrestling and fighting but it should have taken it further to the fighting side since that's the direction it heads in.
I suggest totally revamping the wrestling engine to make the game play more like a wrestling game and less like "Final Fight."
Don't count on using this stuff the way it was intended, though. Unlike the routines real wrestlers choreograph, these matches are absolute button-mashing chaos. [Dec 2003, p.194]
Borderline unplayable due to terrible collision and sloppy mechanics. [Dec 2003, p.174]
Body-slammed by slipshod control, uninspired storytelling, and AI that flips between hyper-brutality and empty-headed idiocy. [Dec 2003, p.106]
There are many reasons to be appalled by this game, but it all starts with a poorly designed game engine that's spazzy to the point of near unplayability. [Dec 2003, p.100]
Compared to most wrestling games, the movesets here have been whittled down to almost nothing. The basic attacks are almost all simple strikes that quickly become half-hearted combinations (punch, punch ... kick!) for button mashers.
This one comes straight from the backyard. It should return there, preferably buried deep by the family dog. [Dec/Jan 2004, p.95]
Sadly, the sloppy controls and graphics make the game about as fun as a blow to the brainpan with a spiked bat.

Whoever gave them permission to make a game should be shot, and I feel sorry for the wrestlers they included in this game, they probably will never appear in a real wrestling title simply becouse of this. Poor sabu, went from tag teaming with RVD to being a side charecter in a third rate pure crap title like backyard wrestling dont try this at home. A word of advice to anyone who wishes to get a good game, stay far away from this one. … Full Review »

Sarasota County Public Hospital Board votes for Sarasota Memorial
Date: March 19, 2013
by: Alex Mahadevan | News Editor
After nearly one-and-a-half hours of public comment, the Sarasota County Public Hospital Board unanimously agreed the Sarasota Memorial Healthcare System isn't for sale March 18.
The board determined selling Sarasota Memorial to a for-profit or non-profit firm wouldn't benefit the system.
The average homeowner in Sarasota County paid about $200 in the 2012 fiscal year to Sarasota County Public Hospital District.
The taxing authority, which the Florida Legislature established in 1949, runs Sarasota Memorial Healthcare System.
That could change if the district's nine-member board decides to sell the hospital system's assets, a move that became a possibility during a March 18 public hearing that revealed Sarasota Memorial is worth between $425 million and $475 million.
Ponder & Co. performed five varying valuations using the hospital's financials and three methodologies with results that ranged from $328 million to $558 million.

Boxing: Loud reminder of a sport down but not out
Sunday 04 July 2004
When the British Boxing Board of Control took charge of what was then the noblest of arts 75 years ago, Gene Tunney, an intellectual who corresponded with George Bernard Shaw and a true man of letters which were not WBC, WBA, WBO, IBF et al, had just relinquished the world heavyweight championship. The most widely recognised heavyweight champion today, Vitali Klitschko, is a Ukrainian with a doctorate who speaks a fistful of languages.
So, the "brain-scrambling" sport remains a magnet for the cerebral and the celebrity, inside the ring and out.
Those attending the board's Diamond Jubilee bash on Friday night at Cardiff City Hall included more than a few who happened to be scholars as well as gentlemen. Nicky Piper, erstwhile light-heavyweight champion and a member of Mensa as well as the board, was among those paying tribute to an organisation who have survived a series of bruising battles, most recently one with Michael Watson which brought them to the verge of bankruptcy and was the reason the celebration was being held in Cardiff rather than London, where the board had been housed for most of those 75 years.
Boxing has had to move on, as have the board. But this is a sport where there are many hard punches, but few hard feelings. Watson, who nearly lost his life but thankfully has recovered his faculties and much of his mobility following his fateful fight with Chris Eubank, was invited by the board, whom he had successfully sued. He couldn't make it because of a prior engagement. These days he is as much in demand as another absentee, boxing's first knight, Sir Henry Cooper. Had he been there he would have savoured a genuine acclamation that is rare in sport these days. There were emotional, rheumy-eyed reunions between those who years ago belted bits off each other, handshakes, hugs and reminiscences galore among old gladiators, with noses askew, proud relics of glorious, if painful ring warfare.
A heavyweight occasion - but one with an unfortunate absence of heavyweights. No Cooper, Lennox Lewis or Frank Bruno. Like Matt Skelton, the present title incumbent, they were otherwise engaged, as was the Olympic champion, Audley Harrison, upon whose huge shoulders the future of the division may well rest.
Harrison, deeply miffed at being axed by the BBC, had also pulled out of carrying the Olympic torch in London last week. Is he turning his back on Britain? Well, he was certainly in America talking, among others, with the promoter Don King. One cannot imagine King acquiescing easily to Harrison's demands to do everything his way, so the conversation may have been brief. Harrison may feel he has good reason to be rueful. But can he really fulfil his self-proclaimed destiny to become a true world heavyweight champion without first proving he is the best of British?
The question was high on the list of table talk on Friday. As it happens, Harrison is himself still talking with British promoter Frank Warren, who remains sanguine about matching him with his man Skelton in the autumn. It is a bout boxing needs for, despite the back-slapping and bonhomie, the sport's golden days are long gone.
The amateur scene - with only one young boxer, Amir Khan, qualified for the Olympics - is in disarray. The World Boxing Council are virtually bankrupt and the fragmentation of titles means that - unlike in the days of Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard and here Nigel Benn, John Conteh, Cooper and Bruno - most champions would not be instantly recognised by the public.
Unless Harrison comes good or Skelton surprises us, Lewis may well have been the last of the big splendours. There is always Ricky Hatton, who has the biggest following in the country. But, as he says himself, he needs to fight someone who brings more than a paper belt to the table. Joe Calzaghe, too, thanks to Sky's coffers, has enriched himself and is a man of immense talent. But 20 years ago he would have been a superstar. Danny Williams, the former champion, was also an absentee heavyweight. He is preparing for a pressing engagement with Mike Tyson who, 38 last week, is again the highest-profile figure in boxing. Broke and busted up by Lennox Lewis, Tyson's continued presence is an indication that boxing still feeds on notoriety. With all his faults and foibles, he remains the man to watch.
Williams, if he gets his head right, has a fighting chance, but he needs ambition as well as artillery. The last thing Tyson wants to face at this stage is a heavyweight with hope in his heart.
At least the board's bean- feast was an indication that the sport is still alive and punching - though not a left hook, a tantrum, even less a bread roll, was thrown. If nothing else - and occasionally Tyson apart - boxing retains a discipline and dignity which is an example to those who play and follow certain other sports.
While Sky televise live boxing virtually every week, there is no doubt that the BBC's decision to curtail their briefly renewed interest, pulling the plug on Harrison after invest-ing £1m of licence-payers' money, is a severe blow.
Not that we have seen the last of boxing on the BBC. On Thursday, much to the board's chagrin, we have a bout between Sid Owen - aka "Rickaaay'' of EastEnders fame - and someone called Ben Fogel of Animal Park, and it is labelled Celebrity Boxing. Nothing cerebral here. The Beeb just need their brains tested.

Ohio State
America's 25 Douchiest Colleges
Of course, special attention needs to be directed to #19 and #2. How true is that?
Rank order of prospective victory goodness 2014 against MSU, ND, OSU.
Off-Season Meta- To "Ohio" or not t"Ohio"
It's the off-season - bear with me here (or ignore the thread).
Help me out: Am I the only one totally annoyed by people calling Ohio State "Ohio." Here's the reasons that make me feel queasy:
1. Obvs: Ohio University. It is confusing at times.
2. It's not clever. I'm all about clever, subtle jabs at other schools: such as "tOSU". Or the "We Own Penn State" chant sung to Zombie Nation at Crisler. That's clever trolling I can get behind. "Ohio" isn't really clever to me.
3. It's a schticky main-stream media non-story created at the start of Hoke's career.
4. Hoke. I can appreciate he is sincere in his Bo/Woody-isms. I hate that it's another way for people to assert an anti-intellectual label to him. Like the saying goes, if we were winning, then it would probably be ignored.
5. It's kinda disrespectful to OU. There is a school that's named Ohio in Ohio. I like them much more than OSU and therefore side with them in their spat over the use of the word.
Just had to throw that one out there. Anyone in my boat. Or am I Francis and totally need to lighten up?
UPDATE: I've appreciated the views of everyone. This is turning into an interesting topic that's more nuanced that it may initially appear. Everyone Murders (an appropriate handle for the subject) put more eloquently than I:
I've got no problem when Hoke describes OSU as "Ohio". I think it's a habit that he has, and a bit endearing because it seems like he sincerely has to choke out that word - as though choking out the whole name of "Ohio State University" (or even "Ohio State") is too hard for him to stomach. So Hoke referring to Ohio State as "Ohio" is OK by me.
When everyone else uses it, I find it confusing and a bit forced. There is a legitimate Div. I university called Ohio University, they knocked us out of the NCAA tournament one year, and their mascot famously punched and horse-collar tackled Brutus. Ohio University was founded over 60 years before OSU. Importantly, most people I've met from Ohio University dislike OSU, and look at the OSU fanbase as a bunch of meatheads. I've got some respect for Ohio University.
Consequently, for people not named Brady Hoke I'm in the call Ohio State University either "Ohio State" or "OSU" camp. (Or call them Buckeyes or "cooler poopers". Or call them "library onanists" or "patio furniture fornicators".)
I would add truck-drivers to that list as well
2014-2015 Ohio State Basketball Preview
Ohio State:
I am a lot higher on Ohio State than most people. With their recruiting class, it will be hard not to improve on last year. The Buckeyes lose Lenzelle Smith Jr and Aaron Craft to graduation. They also lose LaQuinton Ross and Amedeo Della Valle to the pros. Yes you read that correctly, Della Valle is going pro. This means losing:
Losing the grittiest player of all time is tough for a team. However, Craft was not really all that good. I think Ohio State fans would much rather Scott start over Craft. They also get THREE 5 star recruits. Here is their projected roster:
# Name HT WT YR POS
55 Trey McDonald 6-8 240 SR. PF
The back-up Power Forward, will get about 15 minutes this year.
34 Jake Lorbach 6-7 210 SR. SG
24 Andrew Goldstein 6-3 200 SR. PG
23 Amir Williams 6-11 250 SR. C
The most UN-intersted man in basketball. He doesn't always try hard, but when he does, he is pretty good. If he tries this year, he can be dominant.
12 Sam Thompson 6-7 200 SR. SF
An athletic freak, he is gettting more and more skilled. He will get about 30 minutes a game this year. Sam should be one of their go-to guys.
3 Shannon Scott 6-1 185 SR. PG
Scott went off against us last year and if he can do that all the time, Ohio State will be set. He is almost as good on defense as Craft and he actually has something resembling an offensive game.
Anthony Lee 6-9 230 SR. PF
Lee is a transfer from Temple, if I am not mistaken he can play this year. He should be their go-to guy as he did pretty well at Temple.
15 Kam Williams 6-2 175 SO. PG
I am pretty sure he redshirted. In that case he will get about 5 to 10 minutes a game next year.
2 Marc Loving 6-7 215 SO. SF
Loving will be the back-up 3 this year and will probably split minutes with Bates-Diop as a back-up.
32 Trevor Thompson 6-11 210 SO. C
Transfer from Virginia Tech. Has to sit out a year.
D'Angelo Russell 6-4 180 FR. SG
A five star, the #1 best Shooting Guard in the class. He will start at the 2.
Keita Bates-Diop 6-7 190 FR. SF
A five star, the #6 Small Forward in the class. He will split minutes as the back-up 3.
Jae'Sean Tate 6-5 190 FR. SG
A five star, the #8 Small Forward in the class. He will be the back-up 2.
David Bell 6-9 200 FR. C
A three star, the #37 Center in the class. He will be the back-up 5.
Projected Starting Line-up:
Point Guard: Shannon Scott
Shooting Guard: D'Angelo Russell
Small Forward: Sam Thompson
