Program/Project Management
The general contractor's "unreasonable" direction of subcontractors on an Air Force repaving project in Guam led to delays that will cost the parties millions of dollars, a federal judge has ruled.
Wading into a messy series of claims and counterclaims between AMEC Earth and Environmental Inc. and a joint venture comprised of Nippo Corp. and International Bridge Corp., U.S. District Judge Cynthia M. Rufe's 114-page ruling assigned some share of the blame and costs to each party for the problem-plagued project, which included failed materials, months of delays, and millions of unbudgeted costs.
Still, much of Rufe's ruling went against AMEC, the global consulting, engineering and project management firm.
"The court concludes that, as to certain limited claims, the JV has indeed shown that AMEC was either primarily responsible for the delay or additional cost, or was unreasonable in its direction or evaluation of the JV's performance in ways that constructively modified the subcontract or constituted a breach of AMEC's contractual duty of good faith and fair dealing," the ruling said.
AMEC was awarded a $74.2 million engineering and construction services contract to rebuild typhoon-damaged structures at Andersen Air Force Base in Guam from 2003 to 2006.
Although the joint venture "did not strictly comply with the contract requirements for all claims," it "provided sufficient notice to AMEC regarding the problems it was encountering and the damages it was sustaining," the judge found.
$29.7M Contract
The claims arose from a November 2003 contract that AMEC was awarded for runway repairs and resurfacing at Andersen Air Force Base in Guam. The airfield is classified as a "heavy load" facility, designed for the use of B-52 and bomber aircraft, which increases the significance of the specifications, the ruling noted.
The $29.7 million contract was a "cost reimbursable contract," under which the Air Force was to reimburse the contractor and its subcontractors for costs "within the scope of work and the authorized budget."
The subcontract with the Nippo/International Bridge JV was valued at $21.2 million.
The original completion date for the subcontract work was April 26, 2006, but that was extended, and the scope of work expanded, until July 10, 2006. In the end, however, the Air Force did not accept the project until May 31, 2007, 325 days after the scheduled end date.
AMEC ended up meeting the Air Force's budget for the project, but the JV ended up spending $47.6 million on the project; it blamed 251 days of delay and $16.2 million of the additional costs on AMEC, leading to the litigation.
'Never Simple'
The court notes that "determining and attributing 'fault' among the parties in a highly complex contruction contract is never simple," and this case was no exception.
Complications included Guam's extreme tropical climate (with nearly 100 inches of rain over 270 days a year); its remote location; and its military sensitivity, the court noted.
"Heavy load" runways at Andersen Air Force Base support B-52s and other bomber aircraft.
On the other hand, the court said, all of the parties "are sophisticated repeat players in this industry" who realize that responsibility for increased costs and delays fell in this case primarily on the subcontractors, unless they could prove otherwise.
Some of those delays, the court adds, were "indisputably caused by the JV." Those included multiple late cement deliveries; an attempt to use "an on-island paver that proved wholly inadequate"; insufficient trucks to transport concrete; "drastically" underestimating the number of rain delay days that would need to be built into the schedule; and failure to provide sufficient rain protection for the fresh cement.
Even absorbing the cost of those mistakes, however, left millions of dollars in dispute.
Hot Mix Asphalt Debate
A major source of contention in the project (and resulting lawsuit) was the hot mix asphalt used to pave runway shoulders, overruns and taxi tie-ins. AMEC provided the specifications for the HMA mix, and the JV used a local paving contractor that AMEC approved and had used before.
However, AMEC rejected the first mix design submitted by the JV in May 2006. It also noted that a second submitted mix "did not strictly comply" with the specifications but accepted it, with certain requirements waived. However, the Air Force then rejected the mix approved by AMEC.
At that point, AMEC "'took control' of the HMA mix design process" (although the extent of that control was in dispute) and ended up directing the local paving contractor, according to the judge's ruling. The JV contends that it was effectively excluded from the process at this point.
'Fatal Mistake'
Many weeks later, however, AMEC was also unable to come up with a suitable mix, and the continuing delay was threatening to shut down the entire project. The JV complained in writing to AMEC about the delay, but the Air Force refused to approve any alternative mixes.
"I expect [the Air Force personnel] won't be able to realize that Guam is a 2nd World Country with deficient labs and will refuse to grant approval of the mix," an AMEC manager wrote in an email in August 2006. "Within 2 weeks the project could come to a screeching halt as a result of this issue."
Another manager wrote about the same time: "I don't know how AMEC got ourselves into the middle of trying to produce an asphalt mix design for [the local paving contractor] but i[t] was a fatal mistake that we must immediately extricate ourselves from."
Approval—and Failure
In late August 2006, AMEC finally persuaded the Air Force to accept the variance and the same mix design it had rejected that June. The JV made one change to the mix (allowed under the specifications) and installed it.
The design of the hot mix asphalt was debated throughout the summer of 2006. When a mix was finally approved and installed, it failed. The court blamed the GC for "interfering" with the subcontractor.
The mix failed. Of seven lots placed that September, six required partial or total removal.
In the end, the court blamed AMEC for muscling in on the subcontractor's piece of the project, to a costly and problematic result.
"AMEC's active involvement in attempting to create an HMA mix with local materials that met the contract specifications—ultimately resulting in AMEC's obtaining the mid-August approval and variances for a mix design that was substantially similar to that submitted by the JV at the end of May—violated the duty of good faith and fair dealing by interfering with the JV's contract performance," the court found.
Regardless of AMEC's "good intentions," the court said the contractor had "interfered with and hindered" the JV "by taking the HMA mix design process out of the JV's hands..."
The judge added: "AMEC's efforts at self-help backfired, but only after AMEC itself was unable to develop a mix that met the specifications in the subcontract did AMEC make a concerted effort to seek the necessary variance from the Air Force.
"It would be unjust, therefore, to hold the JV responsible for the delay associated with AMEC's own unsuccessful attempts to improve on the JV's May 31, 2006 mix design."
The court said it was "also particularly troubled by AMEC's decision to compel the JV to use a laboratory-created HMA mix that AMEC evidently knew would be difficult, if not impossible, to produce in the field, while making little allowance for field-production variations and failures. Such a decision clearly violates the duty of good faith and fair dealing."
That made AMEC responsible for additional delays and costs, the court found.
Comment from Donald L Crusan, (4/11/2013, 8:11 AM)
Many problems here: Patronage reared it's ugly head, someone at AMEC decided to cut corners & make a name for themself, probably without provenance & Senior Management Approval, Typical Bureaucratic Confusion, and not bringing the proper lab equipment on Island to test the mixes quickly & before application. There are also many more as I see it.

The ballet performance were phenomenal I took my family and it was a great evening, we want to go back to more shows this company will be doing this season.
A mysterious vampire rules over a haunting group of beautiful undead spirits, and a swan maiden under a spell is torn between her black swan and white swan personalities. Expressing the struggle between good and evil is the theme as Inland Pacific Ballet opens their 17th season with an evening featuring selected scenes from its inspired adaptation of Bram Stoker's famous novel that brings Count Dracula eerily to life along with scenes from Swan Lake featuring the infamous Black Swan and her elusive White Swan counterpart. Jonathan Sharp returns to the stage to recreate his brilliant performance as the alluring but sinister Count Dracula, and the elegant and sensual dual role of the Black Swan/White Swan will be danced by Allynne Noelle Stoller. Powerful choreography, spectacular sets, beautiful costumes and dramatic musical scores come together to create a gothic atmosphere for scenes from these compelling ballets and more. A perfect Halloween treat!

OK! OK! Five key points of Isaiah's message that are seen clearly in the first twelve chapters of the book of Isaiah! This is important because these five aspects of God's communications with Isaiah are added to, expanded upon and made clearer as we plough through the entire 66 chapters of his burden. The important thing to observe, I believe, is that the skeletal statements of this first dozen chapters are the seedlings of what the rest of Isaiah's pages explain.
I differentiate these first twelve chapters from the next fourteen or so because of the remarkable change of focus and style that starts with Chapter 13 verse 1. But if we grasp these opening salvo's, the rest of Isaiah will be easier to grasp as we read through.
The first six chapters zoom in on Jerusalem and Judah alone. Chapters 7-12 zoom in on Judah being placed under the disciplining hand of God who utilizes Assyria as the instrument of His judgement. Fascinating! And while these two major strands of thought are being spoken about and made major, Isaiah touches on so much more which, although are not minor, are simply the larger umbrella that requires other realities to be placed on the table. Although the, "so much more," must have seemed like sub plots and trivia to the unbelieving population of Jerusalem contemporary with Isaiah, from our perspective looking back on the history of the Hebrews as well as the life of Christ and the overall "Big Picture" of prophecy, we can plainly see that none of it is a "subplot" to any other part of Isaiah's message. The entire network of Isaiah's thoughts and the strength of what he delivers is plainly demonstrated to be a sack full of heavy duty life changing spiritual goodies that look to the future, the past and what was the present of Isaiah's life. It looks to heaven and hell and all that is between the two. He sees the righteous and the unrighteous and the need for faith. His magnificence is his breadth of message and depth of insight.
Let us briefly observe five of the major truths that are seen already from chapters 1 through to 12, before we continue delving into the rest of his writings. I do not state these five statements in any particular order.
(Isaiah 6:1-6 (in the context of John 12:40-41). Isaiah 7:14. Isaiah 9:1-7. Isaiah 11:1-5. Isaiah 11:10.)
Without doubt, whether Isaiah or the readers of the Old Testament knew it or not (and they obviously did not) the prophet saw a personage coming in the future that was to be the ultimate as the definition of a man being anointed, empowered and motivated by God and His Spirit. This person's anointing would change the world and one day rule the entire cosmos as we know it, and beyond what we know. The word for anointed in the Hebrew language is: Messiah. In Greek, the same meaning is embedded in the word: "Christ." Messiah was coming and Isaiah had the most glorious flashes of what He would be doing, where He would be doing it and what His modus operandi would be.
From our privileged perspective of living subsequent to the resurrection of Christ as well as post the writing of the New Testament, we can see that the baby that was to be born of a virgin, and the light that was to shine in Galilee of the gentiles was the first advent when Messiah would walk as we now walk in what the letter to the Hebrews refers to as "the days of His flesh." However in the most wonderful and glorious imagery, Isaiah also saw the Messiah in His all power and majestic reign in Jerusalem when the entire world would be all at peace, and the world's population would be making pilgrimages to Jerusalem, hosted by the then much loved and appreciated Hebrew nation of Israel, in order to sit at the feet of Messiah and learn of His ways.
(Isaiah 6:1-7. Isaiah 8:13-17. Isaiah 11:1-5.)
Isaiah not only has a remarkable concept of God's greatness, His holiness and all those characteristics that make God – God, but he has the language, the allegories and the descriptive adjectives to take us with him. Isaiah is absorbed with the uniqueness and the intrinsic purity of the Almighty, so much so that the reader needs help to misunderstand his exaltation of Yahweh and the Holy One of Israel. As well as declaring how the glory of God "fills the whole earth" of which we are participants. He also declares the transcendence of God, that is, that He is totally outside the world of Nature which He created and which He rules and sustains. Yet as well as being the invisible, unequalled immortal God, at the same time He is the God of History who is actively involved in the affairs of all mankind and of nations. He is personal to each human being, yet it is He that sustains the entire family of nations in the earth. How glorious is He!
It is because God is the God of the individual as well as the God of all the nations that it is clear that the ultimate value of true spirituality and relationship with God is in the quality of a man's faith in Him. Total and unshaken faith will bring personal and national strength and security. Isaiah sees it, describes it graphically and takes us with him to commit our very being into His hands via Messiah.
(Isaiah 1:26-27. Isaiah 2:19-21.Isaiah 4:2-6. Isaiah 10:20-34. Isaiah 11:6-9. Isaiah 12:1-3.)
The uniqueness of Israel in the future millennial world of multiple races and sustained national identity is plainly declared. For those who believe the so called "Replacement Theology" that openly declares that God is "finished" with Israel and that all Christian reference to them is irrelevant, and has been so since Christ's crucifixion, this point must be a painful "ear bending" that they would prefer to do without. The major point behind the philosophy that says "the Hebrews as a nation called Israel are irrelevant," is the entire failure of the Law and Israel's disobedience to the Sinai covenant. It sounds a good point, but it misses one of the simplest and most profound revelations of the apostle Paul. The promises to Abraham were unconditional and were also 430 years before the law was even given. On top of that the Mosaic law was a conditional covenant. This writer believes passionately that no matter how deep and perverted was the fall of Israel and the continuous sin of the Hebrews throughout the days of the Judges, the Kings and even to the rejection of Christ and their call that, "His blood be upon our heads," as they screamed for His crucifixion, the relevance of the Hebrews and the nation of Israel in this day and age has little – if anything – to do with what was said and done at Sinai, but everything to do with the unconditional covenant that God made with Abraham, repeated to both Isaac and Jacob. The land belongs to Israel by the very mouth and oath of the Almighty. It is the end result of this promise that God gave to the three Patriarchs that leads Isaiah to describe what the Jews refer to as "the Messianic age," and what Christians refer to as "the Millennial Reign if Christ."
Isaiah paints the picture of a righteous Hebrew nation comprising of every Hebrew tribe (all twelve of them) dwelling in perfect peace in the full parameters of the Promised Land, playing the host to every nation of the world as they make pilgrimage to Jerusalem in order to sit at the feet of Christ. Having sketched what that day will be like, the prophet uses the dream of the future to encourage the sinful Hebrews of his day to trust God to bring the day nearer. Only righteousness will save the nation of Israel. Only righteousness will save any and every nation. We refer to the righteousness that comes to mankind through faith in Christ. Conversely, evil will bring on destruction, whether it be temporary for some nations, or total annihilation for others. The Jews, however, are different, inasmuch as they will never be totally destroyed simply because of God's promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. God has stated it to be so. God has ordained it that there will always be a faithful remnant who will return to God's law and save the future for Israel. The Messianic Age is still future and still a prophetically described reality. Therefore it is impossible for the Messianic Age to be installed in the earth without a unified and faith filled Israel. Amongst the other writing prophets of scripture, Isaiah says this as plainly as language allows. "The divine plan for Israel is wonderful, so repent now and hasten that day to come," is the point of his message.
(Isaiah 1:26-27. Isaiah 2:2-5. Isaiah 4:2-6. Isaiah 11:12-16. Isaiah 12:4-6)
Jerusalem has a very special place in the theology of Isaiah. It is indeed the city of the Great King, and that Great King is Christ. It is uniquely the City of God and the visible symbol of His living presence amid the Hebrew nation which is established for Israel and ultimately for all the nations to visit and be ministered to by the Great King, Messiah – Jesus Christ Himself. Jerusalem will become the meeting place for all peoples who will come there to recognise and experience the truth of the teaching of the only One God of all mankind. See Isaiah 4:2-6.
There is a wonderful mystery that is released even in these early twelve chapters of Isaiah that the Jewish insistence that "Messiah" has not yet been hides from their view. There are those lines in Isaiah chapters 7, 9 and 11, that tell us how Messiah will be born of a virgin, how His astounding grace will be seen in the areas of Naphtali and Zebulun, places situated in the district of Galilee of the Nations, and how He will be motivated by nothing but the fear of God the Father and the impulse of Yahweh's Spirit. We can see and understand how the fulfilment of some of those prophecies and Christ's incredible ministry to the people of Galilee have clearly been fulfilled. However, there are also those verses that we know, have not yet been fulfilled that must refer to yet another time when Christ will be here on planet earth in Jerusalem. Thus Isaiah clearly sees what we understand as both the first and Second Advent of the Christ. But by ignoring His first advent, to the Jew, the very idea of two advents seems farfetched. For this reason, from a Christian's perspective, it seems unlikely that Isaiah could have seen the two visitations of Messiah.
Or could he?
In Isaiah 4 Isaiah tells us that the Branch of the Lord, a euphemism for Messiah, will cleanse the hearts of those in Jerusalem and will install a cloud over Jerusalem that will be smoke in the day and fire in the night, and this will be part of a canopy over Jerusalem that will protect the city from inclement weather systems.
In chapter 2 in the opening five verses we have the temple of the Lord which, at Christ's return will be the highest of mountains in Zion and, "all nations will stream to it." The picture of the primary capital of Jerusalem for the entire globe is clearly envisaged. That primary profile of Jerusalem is, of course, solely because Messiah will physically be there.
The prophet enlarges on these concepts as he progresses.
This writer considers it to be of outstanding significance that each and every prophetic word from the writing prophets of the Old Testament that were fulfilled in Messiah's first advent was fulfilled literally and actually, no matter how poetic and abstract some of those words seemed to be prior to their fulfilment. My rhetorical and pointedly loaded question concerning that fact is, therefore, this: If all the prophecies concerning Messiah's first advent were historically, literally and actually fulfilled in this time space world, on what grounds can any bible expositor use a different criteria or set of interpretive rules for understanding the prophecies of His second advent? "This same Jesus shall so come in like manner to the way you have seen Him go." Can language be any plainer than some of these comments concerning Messiah's return?
Isaiah lists a manifest- an itemized inventory- of the sins and the evils of the people of Judah, seen both as a multitude of individuals as well as a single culture. His message is interspersed with predictive prophecies of Messiah and the golden age to come, and he uses these revelations to exhort his contemporaries to seek the Lord "in the now." As already noted, Jewish scholars refer to this future time of Messiah's rule as "The Messianic Age." Christians refer to it as "The Millennial Reign of Christ instituted at the Second Advent of Messiah" as opposed to His First Advent and "the days of His flesh." Those two epithets concerning days that are yet future are so different, yet the meaning they carry is identical. This prophetic vision is seriously important for rightly dividing the scriptural teaching concerning the future of the planet and the "end of time" as we know it.
Again, to clarify the point; What Jewish people would refer to as "The future golden age of Judaism" is what Christians see as the state of the world after the second coming of Christ has taken place and He is enthroned in the City of the Great King, that is Jerusalem. The description of the glories of Israel and Jerusalem is clearly not found in the past that we know so much of, as in the future the Bible tells us to expect. Isaiah is given grace to see ahead in unknown and unmeasured future dates when Messiah will be born and then bring great light to Galilee, and then later on in a time and date utterly hidden from all of humanity still, a day when there will be no more war or any other evil, and when Israel will be redeemed as it becomes the veritable light to all the nations of the Earth. Isaiah's vision is clear, and as we read it gets ever clearer. It will be introduced by this unique Messianic personality working by the Spirit of God. We read the New Testament and see the man Jesus of Nazareth, risen from the dead, ascended and glorified and declared at first by a completely Jewish church that Jesus is the Messiah. Christians declare that Messiah is truly Jesus Christ the Lord. Today of course, there are more gentile Christians than Jewish.
Judaism, however, not acknowledging, yet, that Jesus is the Messiah, sees Isaiah's description clearly, and simply envisage one visitation which, to their Old Testament perspective is clearly still future.
(Isaiah 1:6-20. )
While the religious ceremonial of the Temple ritual and its sacrifices are important, the ethical dimension of a person's behaviour is infinitely more significant and takes extreme precedence over the ritualistic aspects of Judaism as introduced by Moses. "Ritual without character, ethics and integrity is an abominable hypocrisy," is what the writing prophets thrust at their audience. Moses would clearly have agreed if he had lived in Isaiah's day. Moses was a man of faith. The Law he instituted, however, is not of faith.
A call to the purity and holiness that was legislated for in the law was transcended by the prophets just calling for integrity in all aspects of life with a deep repentant heart towards God. Statements like those embedded in Isaiah 56:1. Micah 6:8, Jeremiah 22:3, Hosea 6:6, Amos 5:24, and Zechariah 7:9 amongst others shocked the hard line religionists because the prophets were calling for a purity of spirit and heart, not just an obedience to the Mosaic Law which could be submitted to whilst still living a godless life. The blind practice of the sacrificial system was never how Moses himself envisioned the Levitical sacrificial to be, but that was indeed what it became quite quickly after Moses' death.
The word of God to every person and generation since the fall of man has always been, "Be holy because I am holy." I say this with the full knowledge that Leviticus 16:16 was not written until many centuries and even the flood had passed, but the purpose of the word of God, and the fruit of faith in that word, has always been holiness.

Don't know if this is much help, but I am related to both Jacob and Delilah Heater. My grandfather was a Heater (on my mother's side), and my grandmother was a Riffle (0n my mother's side). From doing my genealogy, my Riffle line looks more like a "family wreath" than a family tree..for example, my maternal granfather's aunt was also my maternal grandmother's grandmother. Delilah Heater's maiden name was Riffle, and the names Heater, Riffle, Blake, and Posey, appear many times married to each other. They married as close as first cousins, so don't be surprised if you start to find this.....it can be confusing, but it did happen since the area was so rural, and in each "town" there would only be a handful of families. So, you may find a Heater married to a Heater, or a Riffle married to a Riffle, etc.
Hope this helps you sort thru some of your info.

good quality and a very good price---packaging attractive and great for storing
What seemed like an easy product to find turned out to be elusive. Overstock had several choices at reasonable prices. This set is well made and looks very well suited to use in food prep.
I love the set, but I thought there would be more sizes. There are, actually, only two sizes 2" and 3" ... six of each. A larger size would have been nice such as a 4". All in all, I am very satisfied and would order it again.
Restaurant quality, no doubt. Iv'e seen Chef's use a can, w/a glass plunger The price is a little steep, especially if you want to use these to roest, 6 is the total in identical sizes. If there is 8 people, you'll need more time, or another set
This is a professional set of rings. A must have whether you entertain or not. Makes plating look 5 star. Easy to use and clean. Highly recommend this product.

Clayton Kershaw, dominant in high school, still dominant in Major Leagues
Clayton Kershaw, Highland Park, 2006: Probably Dallas' most notable player in the big leagues right now, and the reigning National League Cy Young Award winner, the Highland Park standout has been a driving force for the Dodgers' success in 2013. His sub 2.00 ERA makes him one of the most difficult starting pitchers to score on in the last 20 years, and at 25 years old he has a bright future to follow.

We stayed at this hotel on the night of Red, White and Boom. Location-wise, this place was super. We (family if four) easily walked to a grassy area about 5 blocks west to see the fireworks. Room was clean, spacious, and very nice. Hotel was above avg. Restaurant was not very appealing. We did not try it. My biggest complaint was the air conditioner. Though it worked and the temp was comfortable, it was very loud. It sounded like the wind outside was blowing up a hurricane, when in reality it was the air conditioner. My 9 year old twice looked out the window to see the storm, only to realize it was the air conditioner making all the noise. Otherwise, it was a very good stay for our trip. I would stay there again.

I hate this is all happening again. Maybe now more people will understand what happened in the south during the ´60´s. Out of state people came in to start trouble, and they did. And both sides of the stories were never told. Just like now. I´m so sorry for Michael Brown´s family. Hopefully black families are educating their young men to obey a policeman. Whether the cop is right or wrong at the time, just do what he says. Mr. Brown would be alive now, had he done that.

Must read! I am so very, very tired of the race hustlers. Their rhetoric is what is causing most of the black on white "knock-outs" and many other crimes like this that the media refuses to print. In "White Girl Bleed A lot", there is highlighted all the lawlessness toward the other races committed by the blacks. They are angry because they believe this nonsense from the Al Sharptons, etc. Shame on them!

The Jackson gang can never be placated. So why waste the time, they will not be happy until they get Whitey.They are driven by HATE and GREED from shake downs and extortion. Until they get called out they will continue to push the edge. The Klan is unacceptable in proper Society and Jackson, Sharpton and Spike Lee should be considered equal racist.

Senh Duong (Founder)Wopular,
Amid long-running concerns that it's too easy to become a teacher, the White House on Tuesday evening announced new draft regulations that could overhaul the way teacher preparation programs are held accountable for their graduates' performance.
Earlier this month, a report from a Washington think tank found that education majors tend to rack up more A's than other majors, confirming "the damaging public perception that, too often, getting an education degree is among the easier college career paths." The proposed regulations seek to change that.
The Obama administration had announced its intention to develop new standards of accountability for teacher preparation programs in April.
Think those "missing" IRS emails aren't a big deal? Then consider the hullaballoo when Palin's were released.
By David Lawder WASHINGTON, Nov 25 (Reuters) - Democrats in Congress on Tuesday vowed to reject an emerging Republican effort to split immigration-related funding from a full-year government spending bill that avoids a government shutdown. The plan, being pushed by some conservative Republicans including incoming House Budget Committee Chairman Tom Price, would provide a short-term funding extension only for immigration agencies as a way to exert leverage against President Barack Obama's immigration order last week.

Medieval Play
Signature Theatre
Kenneth Lonergan became a cinephile rallying point last year when his long-delayed film Margaret was quietly released and then brought back into select theaters for awards consideration. Lots of film lovers in Manhattan made a point of seeing it several times when it played at Cinema Village, and the announcement of a Margaret DVD with added footage has fans of the film in a state of extreme excitement. But Lonergan has been best known as a writer for the theater, working in a style of patient, careful naturalism in plays like This is Our Youth, Lobby Hero and The Waverly Gallery, a tribute to his grandmother. Consequently, the last thing to be expected of Lonergan is that he would write and direct a sophomoric comedy like Medieval Play, which feels like several college-type skits on medievalism stuck together end to end.
Medieval Play (through June 24) is redolent of Monty Python and the early plays of Christopher Durang, and to really work in that vein, it needs to be gleeful, shameless, outrageous and sharp. Lonergan's idea of a funny joke is to have a knight or a nun say "Motherfucker!" very loudly, and a dismaying amount of the humor is dependent upon verbal anachronisms and modern urban behavior by characters in medieval costume. The play begins with a stupefyingly long conversation about medieval times between two knights, Sir Ralph (Josh Hamilton) and Sir Alfred (Tate Donovan), and many of the ensuing scenes are equally distended. The funniest moments come during a sit-down dinner in which a hostess (Halley Feiffer) reads aloud from a book of etiquette and the knights and wenches try to conform to her instructions on table manners, but this set piece, like so many others, seems to go on forever for no particular reason. In Margaret, many scenes went on longer than we are used to in a film, often with reams of smart dialogue going by at a fast clip, and this kind of abundance worked beautifully for Lonergan there, but when the same unedited technique is applied to a burlesque-type comedy like Medieval Play, the result is heavy-footed.
Of all the actors, only Feiffer plays in the appropriate goonish comic style, though C.J. Wilson works very hard at one point to make a slapstick death scene into a laugh riot. Hamilton plays with wide-eyed earnestness, as if he expects a more serious play to cohere around him, but instead we get more cries of "Motherfucker!" and "Shit!" and jokes about medieval medicine and lengthy narrative exposition delivered in dry tones by Catherine of Siena (Heather Burns, who makes for an awfully reasonable psychotic stigmatic). At the end, Catherine describes The Great Schism between two different popes and wonders if there was any point at all to the conflict, and it's easy to wonder the same thing about Medieval Play, which seems a juvenile and unfunny indulgence next to the mature character drama we've come to expect from Lonergan.

UCF shows off artist renderings of new uniforms
- Updated: March 11, 2013
For Central Florida 2013 is about a new conference, new conference name, and new uniforms. With the help of Nike, UCF will debut a new uniform set for the 2013 season, the first after leaving Conference USA for the soon to be renamed remainder of the football Big East. Making them a little more unique is the fact that UCF will be the first to debut the Nike template nicknamed The Beast. [Insert Beast Mode jokes here]
Unfortunately the new uniforms have yet to be officially unveiled, but the school was kind enough to provide a tease with artist renderings using fancy computer graphics. So that will have to do for the time being.
A quick glance at the renderings shows little has changed in the uniform to the casual eye. The UCF uniforms could probably be swapped with Army and nobody would ever notice. One thing that will be new, at least under head coach George O'Leary, will be the addition of black pants. O'Leary is no fan of wearing black, according to The Orlando Sentinel, but they will at least be an option this season. With a black jersey, we can only assume there will be a black (knight) out for a game, and we'll speculate along with The Orlando Sentinel that the Black Friday game against South Florida will be a top candidate for such an occasion.
There are no indications to any changes with the helmet for UCF, although I would endorse a golden chrome helmet to play up the Golden Knight theme. Think about what Rutgers did with their helmets last year and add a gold version. It could work. Free advice for you UCF. It's your's.
According to the school's athletics department, this is the first time UCF has altered their football uniforms since 2010. That was the first year the school partnered with Nike.
