We think the guys running TrackingPoint know what they have to do. In fact, we think they're already doing these things. But here's what, from our point of view, is missing from the current iteration of TrackingPoint hardware and software for real penetration into the upper tier SOF market.
So, Who Do You Hit First?
If we were their marketing consultants (we use our MBA, but not like that), we'd also press them to focus on sell-in to certain SOF elements that are image leaders in the international SOF community. Sell, for example, to SAS, and you will have Peru, the UAE, the Netherlands, and many other nations very interested in your product line (Indeed, sell to SAS or to their US counterparts, and you'll get sale after sale, worldwide). It's important, also, not to over-discount the stuff to your lead customers: confidentiality agreements are fine and good, but they probably can't keep, say, American shooters from telling the foreign shooters they're training with or competing against, what a good deal you gave 'em.
Another possible launch customer is FBI HRT. As their history of reckless shots and whacked non-targets shows, they could use the marksmanship boost. Meanwhile, despite their record, they're very influential on local police procurement. Tag/track/release technology is just the ticket for police marksmen who never get enough time for training, and yet have to make more consequential and more constrained shots than a lot of military snipers. (A military sniper, outside of some rarefied CT or HR gigs, almost always has the option to no-shoot. FBI or police sniper, scope-on a crim threatening a hostage, might lack that luxury).
Who Don't You Hit?
While the Marine Scout Snipers could use the hell out of this thing, it's too foreign to Marine marksmanship culture, which is a master-and-apprentice culture that demands effort, even hardship, and eschews automation or corner-cutting of any kind. So we'd put these excellent Marine precision marksmen way down the list, right now. We've worked with enough 8541s to know that they like to do things the hard way, and they take particular joy in doing it the hard way faster than an Army guy can do it the easy way, and take a positively indecent glee in breaking the dogface's easy-way technology. Bringing this to the Marines first means that they will use their considerable intellect and energy to break your machine and send you away with a duffel bag of expensive pieces (so they're great for finding unimagined points of failure — there is that). Bringing it to them after selling it to the Army is not a panacea. It might be even harder, because they will be energized to demonstrate that the Army did Something Stupid, because if Marines believe three things about the Army it's that: we have too much money, too little guts, and way too little brains.
You'll probably need a Marine sniper on board to sell to Marine snipers. Once you do, you won't get quite the global reach that you do by selling to SAS or its American counterparts. But you get in with the world's greatest military image machine, and there is that.
You have to be very careful about selling in to Hollywood. (One TrackingPoint precision guided rifle is already in the hands of the most successful firm that supplies movie and TV weapons and armorers). The reason is that an inept display of your product can hurt sales. (It would be very Hollywood to put the TrackingPoint system in the hands of a villain, to be overcome by someone like a Marine sniper or James Bond willing to use superior skill and old school firearms).
What's Missing From 1st-Gen Tracking Point
While the extant system has undeniable SOF applications, it also has limits, and some technical improvements — none of which are impossible or require TrackingPoint engineers to schedule an invention — would increase its marketability in military precision riflery circles.
Emission Control / Encryption / ECCM
It's great that you have a computer in a scope, and it's the wave of the future. But the computer can be located by enemy SIGINT. The video and wifi links need strong encryption, and in addition they need to be controllable so that emissions can be closed down. Even third world enemies often use electronic support measures these days, and so you need some RF low-observability measures, and you also need to have electronic counter countermeasures to ensure usability of the system in an electronic environment.
Two-way communications
This one engenders some risk, but there should be a capability for the opetator to hand off control of the PGM's optoelectronic systems to someone's telepresence from a support station. Or even from another field station.
Intelligence gathering MASINT capability
There is everything in this weapons system that's needed, for instance, to remotely measure a prison camp or a suspected SS-20 missile TEL. This capability would also tie in beautifully with the improved communications and encryption capabilities mentioned above.
A Ballistic Development Interface, SDK or App
Now that we have that in-scope computer, fully integrated with the hardware of the firearm, we need to have a way to make it more adaptable to different ammunition loadings, including one-time, single-mission loads. And that has to be done at the unit level; otherwise you've got a potential breach of compartmentation.
This is a sales stopper with top tier units. They develop their own long range capabilities, including, at times, loads, and they do it because they think they, like benchrest shooters, can handload a more consistent, higher-precision round than even premium ammo suppliers can do.
Demonstrated, Documented Durability
The running joke is that a soldier or marine can break a ball from a ball-bearing — just leave him alone in a room with it, and you're a half hour from looking at a broken ball, and hearing, "Uh, I dunno, sarge. It just broke!" (Bearing-ball, hell, these guys could do that with a wrecking ball). You want your machine to be wrecking-ball strong.
Demonstrated "Fail Safe" mode.
The capability of the system has to degrade gracefully. If you're sneakin and peekin' on Day 38 of a "14-day mission," dead batteries can't leave you in shoot-randomly mode (let alone, can't-shoot mode). Even an ACOG, which is probably harder to break than the gun it's atop, has cast-in backup sights. But with a TrackingPoint gun's scope being dependent on a CCD display at the shooter end, you can't afford to have dead batteries.
Full Auto Stabilization Mode
We can't be the only ones who looked at this and thought, "tag, track & x-act really could up the game of a door gunner and/or Boat Guy." Hell, those Chenoweth sandrails might come back from the dead, if the gunners in them could actually hit things instead of just contribute morale-raising decibels to a fight. Imagine this Hollywood concoction, except real, and with the boost in hit probability than TrackingPoint promises.
You know you want one (more on the movie gun soon).
Note that these are just for the military employment of tracking point, as combat weapons technology. We haven't even addressed the utility of tracking point for big game hunting, which is what the thing was developed for in the first place. Its applications for everything from African plains game to heliborne predator control seem self-evident. We haven't even hinted at the potential for a rimfire TrackingPoint squirrel slaughter system, something that would sell itself once the price comes down.
As we all know, the guys running TrackingPoint are not stupid. They are probably thinking of most if not all of these things already. If not, hey, our rates are reasonable; drop us a line.

NEW YORK (MainStreet) -- It's late August, and if you're a parent wrestling with college costs, the living ain't – sorry, "isn't" – easy.
According to the College Board, while the rest of the economy goes into the tank, college costs are actually rising and will continue to do so. Here are the numbers for projected four-year tuition and fees from the organization:
- Private College: 2010: $119,400 / 2028: $340,800
- Public College: 2010: $33,300 / 2028: $95,000
But help is on the way: If you're struggling to close the deal on this year's college costs, Sallie Mae can help you fill the tuition gap with these key tips. And interest-free tuition is at the top of the list.
First off, parents facing what Sallie Mae calls a "financial gap" can contact the company directly for last-minute financing. Sallie Mae says it has a wide variety of funding programs, including interest-free tuition payment plans, private education loans and other funding programs (the company calls such plans "financial life savers").
Here's a look at those resources:
Interest-free tuition. Sallie Mae is a big advocate of interest-free tuition, and says that such plans are available at "hundreds of college campuses." These arrangements allow you to evenly spread payments out instead of paying a lump sum at the start of every college semester.
Try a "responsible" private loan. Sallie Mae is also a fan of what it calls "responsible" private loans. Its own program has three "flexible payment levels" (you can find them here); one option allows students to pay just $25 per month while in school, or to not start repaying the loan until the student has graduated. Students can also earn discounts up to 2% of the loan value by paying their loan off every month, on time.

3D handset hits streets of Japan
Our mobile phones will be slimmer, 3G-enabled and sporting 3D fascias. That's if your expectations are based on handsets now available in Japan, where NEC has just unveiled the world's slimmest clamshell handset for the W-CDMA network that features a stereoscopic fascia. The rectangular N704iμ handset, which has just gone on …
An NEC phone
I had a NEC phone years ago and liked it. Showing my techno ignorance here but I still get along just fine and dandy with a Nokia 6310i. Have you seen how much they go for on eBay? Crikey.....
Anyway, that's not the point.
I've seen the iPhone thing, not impressed.
I've read about the mini projector in a phone, yaaawn
And you can FRO Motorola with your razor rubbish
But this I like.
It touches buttons on a purely silly level like the surfacing and lovely slimness. Wonderful.
I want one. In red. Now.
So it doesn't have a 3D screen, or camera, or sound, just a fucking hologram casing?!?
Stupid stupid article.
looks familair...
This looks just like an updated N412i.
I actually prefer the old look: less blingy, but a nice tecno look.
Lets hope they improved the camera quality a lot..
3D My Royal ***
And I thought there was another dimension to be found in that tiny thing.
I wonder
How many of those slim thingys will be broken in two by being put in a rear pocket and sat upon a few minutes later ?
I wonder if it'll be available..
...in a 3D Burberry finish. NEC needs to tap into the chav market if they want to compete in the UK!

And also by congratulating the graduates on gaining their degrees - all the better because they have been awarded by Australia's oldest and most prestigious university. I am sure you will all do well in your chosen careers.
I trust that you enjoy your day and I do hope that you may remember just a little from my brief remarks that follow - which I have entitled: "Students in the Early Days and the Idea of a University".
2007 should be, but isn't, being celebrated as the sesquientenary - the 150th anniversary, of the commencement of university teaching at this site; the University having moved from its temporary premises of the old Sydney College at Hyde Park, to what was then generally known as Grose Farm, though nowdays more generally thought of as Broadway or Camperdown.
In 1857 the foundation professoriate - John Woolley (Principal & Professor of Classics); Morris Birbeck Pell (Mathematics); and John Smith (Chemistry and Experimental Physics) - gave their first lectures in the partially-completed university buildings on the Grose Farm paddocks.
As the cattle grazed, the Professors taught, and the builders continued with the work of completing Stage 1 of the university buildings, comprising:
- Blackett's masterly designed Great Hall,
- the eastern front between the Hall and the Clock Tower,
- and the Great Tower itself.
It is instructive to look back at these early days to see something of the life of the students; and to ask the question, What is a University?
A glance at how students traveled or got to University is a useful starting point. In the early years Grose Farm was perceived to be at what John Woolley termed a "great distance from Sydney", and getting to the place was not without its difficulties.
Delicate students, in particular, the Principal claimed, were disadvantaged by the location, as there was a great deal of wet weather in Sydney, and whereas these students might have been able to attend at Hyde Park - where the University began in the building of the old Sydney College, they could hardly be expected to withstand the elements to reach the building at Grose Farm.
Horse-drawn omnibuses travelling to Glebe stopped at five-minute intervals at the toll-bar at the bottom of the hill, on which the University stood, but there was still a considerable walk to the university building.
The omnibuses made the University accessible from all parts of the city, but they were an expensive form of transport, especially for students, who normally walked or rode to the University. Those who rode, however, had no accommodation for their horses at Grose Farm and were forced to keep them at neighbouring hotels, a practice which Woolley found "very objectionable on many accounts".
Members of the class in jurisprudence who were not undergraduates of the University complained bitterly at having to travel out to Grose Farm on Monday nights. They claimed that for an hour's lecture it took up to two or three additional hours of their valuable time, and Hargrave, the Reader (or in more modern parlance, Associate Professor), had no doubt that had the lectures been held in some central location, such as the Supreme Court, the attendance would have been much increased.
According to Hargrave, the accommodation for his lectures at the University was "very good", but the inconvenience of getting to the night classes was aggravated by the incomplete state of the approach road to the university building and the inadequate lighting in the grounds. Some nights were very dark and very wet, and when the road was particularly bad, the Sydney students, who used to charter an omnibus to come out, found great inconvenierlce in reaching the place.
If getting to the University could be extremely difficult in the early days, once there it could scarcely be said that classes were overcrowded. During Term, lectures for the regular degree course were conducted from 9.00 am to 1.00 pm as in Oxford and Cambridge, on each day of the week except Sunday, with a student generally having one hour free during the morning. The by-laws of 1856 required that lectures, each of an hour's duration, be delivered daily by the professors in classics, mathematics, and experimental physics.
There were also voluntary classes in French and German but they attracted very few students indeed. The lectures in German were in fact abandoned in 1856 after a single student who had been taking the class discontinued. The numbers taking French, which had been up to eleven in 1855, also fell away when the University moved out to Grose Farm.
In 1859 when these lectures were held three days a week at the very inconvenient hour of 1.00 to 2.00 pm - so that they did not interfere with the regular degree course - they attracted only two students.
The very few undergraduates in the professorial classes, however, was the most remarkable feature of early University life and militated strongly against the emergence of a corporate university life. Throughout the early years the numbers were very low, and in the fourteen years from 1852 to 1865 they totalled only 176.
The great majority of students furthermore did not graduate. Between 1856, when the first degrees were awarded, and 1865, only 65 students graduated Bachelor of Arts.
The high dropout rate further depressed the size of the student body, and the total number of students at the University at anyone time was very small indeed.
Whether or not potential students or graduates were deterred by the toughness of the examination system it is impossible to say; but that the system was one of some rigor, there can be little doubt.
In addition to the yearly examination, for the first two years of the undergraduate course, there was an examination at the end of the Third Year for the award of the degree of Bachelor of Arts. The examination was conducted in the first instance by printed papers, and afterwards, at the discretion of the examiners, by "viva voce". Candidates were required to pass "a satisfactory examination" in Greek, Latin, mathematics, natural philosophy, chemistry, experimental physics, and logic for the award of the ordinary or pass degree. All those who passed the examination were eligible to sit for the honours examinations in classics and mathematics, held at the beginning of Lent Term.
The undergraduate examinations developed a reputation for strictness and rigour, and the failure of half of the sixteen candidates who presented themselves for the degree examination in 1859 was cited as evidence of their "admirable" severity.
At the same time, the standard, according to Woolley, was not as high as in Oxford and Cambridge, where "a young man wishing to get on in Classics or in Mathematics ... must be well acquainted with moral and mental philosophy, both modern and ancient, and so well up in languages that it would be almost impossible to puzzle him with any book you put before him".
The Sydney examinations, on the other hand, were on "things actually done during the course of the Term", and no question was asked which had not been previously often written upon.
Failure to pass the yearly examinations in the early days could incur not only the displeasure of the professors, but also the censure of the Vice-Provost and the Senate.
The case of David Scott Mitchell demonstrates the point. In their report on the examinations for 1854 the professors observed that Mitchell, who subsequently graduated BA (1856) and MA (1859) and whose books and papers now form the basis of the Mitchell Library, had displayed evidence of "culpable and wilful negligence".
Although he had won a scholarship in the previous year, largely on the basis of his performance in physics, he had submitted a blank paper in that subject, and his performance in classics and mathematics had been "by no means equal to his ability; and the expectations which the Examiners were led to form at the commencement of his career".
The examiners considered Mitchell (who had attended a private-venture school in the colony) to be one of those students whose performance had been adversely affected by the discrepancy between the attainments of the undergraduates educated in the colony and those who had received their education in an English Public School.
Under these "special circumstances" they were "inclined to recommend that the letter of the law should not be severely enforced". The Senate consequently deprived Mitchell of his scholarship, but did not require him to attend any additional terms.
Nevertheless, he was to be summoned to appear before the Provost and the Vice-Provost in order that he might be formally censured, and unless he should satisfy them of his regret for his past failure and his resolve for the future, he was not to be permitted to compete for any scholarship at the next examinations.
The Idea of a University
I have previously said enough to convey the notion that our University in 2007 is so different from that of 1857 that any similarity seems purely accidental. For example, today, or at least according to the latest official statistics, the University of Sydney comprises:
- 45,000 students (a majority, or 26,000 of whom are female);
- 6,500 staff (3,170 of whom are female);
- The University awarded for the year ended 31/12/05 over 13,000 degrees/diplomas;
- It had an income of just under $1.03 billion (i.e. $1,020,707,000);
- And there were in excess of 5.5 milllon items in the Library .
Such mind-boggling differences may well cause us to pause and ask: What is a University?
It is not as Cardinal Newman - who held back reform at Oxford for some quarter of a century or more - would have us believe, a place of "universal knowledge". Rather, a university (or "universitas", to use the mediaeval legal term from which the word "university" is derived) is a CORPORATION of students and masters - or, to put the matter another way, as the distinguished American educator and former President of the University of Chicago, Robert Maynard Hutchins, has observed:
"A university is a community of scholars. It is not a kindergarten; it is not a club; it is not a reform school; it is not a political party; it is not an agency of propaganda. A university is a community of scholars ...
"Freedom of inquiry, freedom of discussion, and freedom of teaching - without these a university cannot exist. Without these a university becomes a political party or an agency of propaganda. It ceases to be a university.
"The university exists only to find and to communicate the truth. If it cannot do that, it is no longer a university. Socrates used to say that the one thing he knew positively was that we were under a duty to inquire. Inquiry involves still, as it did with Socrates, the discussion of all important problems and of all points of view."
I would add that in 2007, a university is not a vast correspondence school, nor an institution for self-adulation. It is not an instrument for playing political games, nor a centre for remedial education; it is a community of scholars.
And to those who would interfere in university affairs by legislating, for example, against compulsory student unions, to take but one example of recent Federal Government interference, would do well to heed what the famous Oxford Don, Benjamin Jowet, said to the future Secretary of the landmark Royal Commission on the University of Oxford in the mid-nineteenth century, viz: "Our sense that education at the Universities does not consist in mere teaching or learning, but in a thousand undefined things - association, place, amusement etc".
Or, as Australia's first professor, John Woolley, put it in a letter to the Colonial Secretary and member of the University of Sydney Senate, Edward Deas Thomson:
"The mere acquisition of certain knowledge is not the sole, even principal thing sought for at the University - it is the indirect effect produced by the collision of many minds together, and by the influence not less real because difficult to appreciate of the 'genius loci'. Many men leave Oxford and Cambridge with little positive addition to their scientific acquirements - but not without real and considerable benefit. No man looks back to his reading for the degree as to the benefit which he derived from his academic life".
Here today in this magnificent Great Hall, we, graduates of the university of Sydney, can look back to those who conceived our University, who built the edifice, who imbued it with a great spirit of learning and of service to the nation and we can rightly say we have been blessed - and in turn, we can pass this blessing on to others.
Again, I wish you every success and professional fulfillment in your chosen careers.
Thank you.

'Long Island Medium' EP Reveals What Goes on 'Behind the Read' (Exclusive Video)
From what it's like to produce the show to what Theresa Caputo knows before a reading, executive producer Wendy Douglas may make you a believer.
The second season of the TLC series Long Island Medium, which features Theresa Caputo, her family, and her spookily accurate ability to speak with spirits, returns Sunday at 9 p.m.
EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Niecy Nash on 'Leave It to Niecy': 'We Just Make Love, Money and Laughter'
If you watched the first season, then you know that Caputo has been able to convert several nonbelievers with her readings. I'm even willing to bet that plenty of skeptics of Caputo's abilities watch the show anyway. Those are the same people who would be interested in watching this behind the scenes video with executive producer, Wendy Douglas, titled "Behind the Read."
In the video above, Douglas reveals what it's like producing the series, answers some burning questions viewers may have, and admits that working on the show hasn't made her immune to its more emotional events.
Long Island Medium debuts its second season on Sunday at 9 p.m. on TLC.

Michael Linke Jr., 33, of Fremont, was charged with one count each of Tampering with Evidence, OVI and leaving the Scene of an Accident.
The indictment alleges that Linke was involved in a collision in Harris Township in April 2011. Linke was intoxicated when he crashed his motorcycle, left the scene, then later gave false information from Ohio State Highway Patrol troopers.
Also indicted were:
Walter N. Polus, 30, whose last known address is Sandusky, was charged with felony counts of Burglary, Theft and Receiving Stolen Property, along with a misdemeanor count of Theft after he allegedly entered an Oak Harbor residence in August then used a credit card taken from the home.
A warrant was issued for Polus. Summonses were issued for all other defendants to make their initial appearances in the Ottawa County Court of Common Pleas on Nov. 7.
Local churches, civic organizations, businesses, school groups, and private citizens of the greater Elmore area are collaborating again this year to prepare over 250 holiday meals.
The event was originally planned to support families and individuals who were unable to prepare a traditional Thanksgiving dinner because of financial limitations, as the 2009 unemployment rate in Ottawa County neared 17 percent. What the planning group learned was there are many area residents who just want to gather in joy, much like the original Thanksgiving, as a community to celebrate the day with a feast and a grateful heart.
Everyone is welcome to the dinner, which will include turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, green beans, rolls, cranberry sauce, dinner roll, homemade pumpkin pie, desserts and beverage.
Those who are able are asked to bring in a canned good for the local food pantries or a new, unwrapped toy to support Toys for Tots.
From 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., court personnel and members of Perrysburg Court Law and Government Explorer Post #2306 will volunteer their time to inspect candy for foreign objects using security x-ray equipment. In addition, Judge Dwight Osterud will have treats for the children.
The Explorer Post provides a look into the world of law and government as a career choice for our community youth and the opportunity for them to participate in law and government activities. The Post is currently preparing to compete in the Ohio Mock Trial.
For more information about the program call 419-872-7915 or visit the court's website at www.perrysburg.court/Gen/explorer.
Wild Carrot & The Roots Band offers something for everyone. Wild Carrot is made up of Pam Temple and Spencer Funk. The pair met through music, married and began performing full-time together in 2000. In addition to performing, Spencer is a respected guitar teacher. Pam hosts The Front Porch, an American Roots radio program heard in the Greater Cincinnati area on local NPR member station 89.7FM WNKU.
Mike Breen of City Beat calls their show, "a whirlwind of Roots music forms, touching on Bluegrass, Country, swinging Jazz, Modern Folk and Celtic music."
Tickets are $10 and are available at Beeker's General Store or Riverbank Antiques in Pemberville, or by calling Carol at 419-287 4848. For more information, call www.pembervilleoperahouse.org.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C., Sept. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Studies have shown that U.S. patients are more likely to fill a prescription after initially receiving a sample from a physician.
However, as the access of pharmaceutical sales reps to doctors has declined in recent years – and companies have been forced to cut the size of their sales forces – drug manufacturers have toyed with new ways to deliver product samples to physicians.
One approach that has gained momentum in the last several years is physician E-sampling - a program that enables physicians to order and manage prescription samples online.
Thus, to help offset the diminishing returns of traditional physician sampling, some companies – 46% according to "Current & Future Trends in Physician E-Sampling: Managing for Superior Sales, Access, Service & Cost Benefits" – have begun initiating E-sampling programs simultaneously with product launch.
This critical report from Best Practices, LLC presents an array of E-sampling program benchmarks that document the current state of this important tactic at leading pharmaceutical organizations, such as E-sampling prevalence, volume, budget, allocated FTEs, and performance measurement.
The 46-page study also reviews how organizations manage E-sampling programs and their benefits and pitfalls.
While the study found only 33% of drug manufacturer brands were supported by E-sampling as opposed to traditional sales rep sampling, more companies are supplementing rep-based sampling with physician E-sampling and a few companies have moved to 100% E-sampling.

Joe Washington's presidential courting
The persuasive power of President Lyndon B. Johnson is the stuff of Washington legend. Selling ice to Eskimos is nothing. As Senate majority leader and again as president, LBJ sold civil rights legislation to a Senate controlled by Southern segregationists.
But 40 years ago, in the winter of Johnson's life, when he had returned to his beloved Texas, he couldn't sell the Longhorns to one of the top recruits in the state. The running back went to Texas' archrival and fulfilled the potential that had prompted Longhorns coach Darrell K. Royal to enlist LBJ in the first place.
Recorded in the files of the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library and Museum in Austin is the story of how the recruit, Joe Washington of Port Arthur, and his family refused an invitation from Johnson to go to the famed LBJ Ranch and meet the former president. Washington, a 5-foot-9 scatback, went to Oklahoma, where he became an All-American and, as a junior, finished third in the 1974 Heisman Trophy vote. After 10 years in the NFL, he was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame.
And after four decades, every time he thinks about saying no to LBJ, he winces.
"I didn't tell anybody about the invitation," Washington said Monday. He is the executive director of the O Association, the organization of former Sooners letter winners. "I thought they would say, 'You should go.' 'You're stupid.' That was stupid. There are things you do regret. That's one of them."
That Johnson would attempt to dip his toe in recruiting may come as a surprise. Not because of NCAA regulations -- in 1972, boosters could play a role in recruiting. But anyone who knew Johnson knew he had little interest in spectator sports.
Plenty of presidents have been sports fans, from Benjamin Harrison, who in 1892 became the first to attend a Major League Baseball game, to Barack Obama, who annually fills out a March Madness bracket for an ESPN audience. The president who replaced Johnson, Richard M. Nixon, attended the Texas-Arkansas game in 1969 and declared the winning Longhorns No. 1.
But Johnson couldn't have cared less.
"My God, another football game. I always trembled when he went to one of those things," George Reedy, a longtime member of Johnson's staff, said in an oral history recorded in 1982 by the LBJ Library.
"He didn't pay any attention to the game at all. He cared about as much about football as I would a ladies' dressing parade," Reedy said. "[He went] because other people went. He could meet people there, he could talk to them. He knew that every red-blooded American had to go to baseball and football games."
Doris Kearns Goodwin, the presidential historian and a former aide to Johnson, wrote that when LBJ went to see the Senators or Redskins play "he would wait impatiently for the action to end so that he could talk politics."
Goodwin, a huge Red Sox fan, described her former boss as "constitutionally incapable of enjoying a spectator sport."
Added Reedy, "I was always worried that the television cameras would be on him, you know, during a home run with the bases loaded or a 50-yard pass, and there would be the camera showing him talking to somebody."
But Johnson did care about the University of Texas. That's why he had his presidential library built on the Forty Acres. It sits across the street from Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. LBJ cared about Royal's football team because it represented Texas. And he cared about Royal. They had become good friends late in the president's life. Darrell and Edith Royal used to vacation with the president and his wife, Lady Bird, and other friends in Acapulco, Mexico. Royal also regularly visited the LBJ Ranch.
In the winter of 1972, Royal discussed with Johnson the problems that Texas had recruiting African-American players. Royal had been slow to integrate -- the 1969 team is known as being the last all-white national champion -- and other schools had taken advantage of the opening that lapse created. Houston and Oklahoma, the other schools in which Washington showed interest, had been integrated for some time.
The "racist image," Royal said in an oral history he gave to the LBJ Library in 1987, "carried on down through the years and still exists in some blacks' minds today, and I was having a hard time convincing black student-athletes that we wanted them on campus. And he [Johnson] said, 'Well, let me call Mack Hannah, and let's just meet out here at the Ranch.'"
Mack Hannah, a Port Arthur businessman, was one of the most influential African-Americans in the southeastern part of the state.
"I remember very well sitting out on the porch and going over the recruitment of Joe Washington with Johnson and Hannah," Royal said.
Johnson had a staff member call the Washington home in Port Arthur to invite Washington and his parents, Joe Sr. and Phyllis, to come to the LBJ Ranch and have lunch with him.
"They even turned that down," Royal said in the oral history, "which was unbelievable."
Washington didn't say no out of spite or out of politics. He didn't say no because of the "racist image" that concerned Royal. Far from it.
"Every kid grows up wanting to go to Texas," Washington said. "I was no different. When Coach Royal's [TV] show came on, I think it was Tuesday nights, they would play 'The Eyes of Texas' and my brother and I would stand up with our hands over our hearts."
Washington can rattle off the Longhorns stars of the national championship teams of 1969-70 -- Chris Gilbert, Jim Bertelsen, James Street -- as though they had been his own teammates. But Washington declined the chance to meet the former president because he already had made up his mind that he would sign with Oklahoma.
"I didn't think that would be kosher, as much as I would have loved to have done that," Washington said. "To go ahead and take the trip knowing I was going to the University of Oklahoma."
Washington played at Port Arthur Lincoln High for his father. When integration took hold, schools like Houston and Oklahoma swooped into Texas and hired African-American high school coaches to pry open the doors. Sooners assistant Wendell Mosley, an old friend of Washington's father, had watched Joe grow up. So had Elmer Redd, an assistant coach for Bill Yeoman at Houston.
Washington wanted to go to Oklahoma to be in the same backfield as Greg Pruitt, the back from Houston who became an All-American in the Sooners' wishbone. He wanted to measure himself against Pruitt. He decided to sign with Oklahoma. But he hadn't told Mosley or head coach Chuck Fairbanks when he came home one day and got a phone message that President Johnson's office had called.
"I said, 'Holy crap! That is cool. It's too late,'" Washington recalled. He had made up his mind, and that was that. "I thought about it a little bit. My mom wouldn't approve of that. My mom would not have any part of that. She said, 'Joe, we don't do that.'"
Washington still wonders, though.
"It's something I always talked about and thought about," Washington said. "It's one thing I regret, that I didn't go anyway. I think I probably made the right decision. I do regret not going."
Washington went to Oklahoma. In his first intrasquad scrimmage, the first time he touched the ball, playing against the Sooners' first-team defense, Washington ran a simple counter play. He went 80 yards for a touchdown.
"Nobody laid a hand on him," Barry Switzer, then an Oklahoma assistant, wrote in his autobiography, "Bootlegger's Boy." "I mean, nobody touched him. I looked at Chuck, who stood 10 yards away. We didn't say a word. We just stared at each other. We both knew what we had just seen."
Washington's refusal to meet with LBJ didn't dissuade Royal.
"Actually, one weekend we made a big push and had as many of the top black prospects as we could get at one time," Royal told the Library, "and President Johnson took a helicopter from the ranch and landed on top of the library here, and we had a little party, a little cookies and tea and milk and a little set-to in the suite here. He had a little nice, buffet-catered-type deal for those kids, and he talked to them about coming to the University of Texas. The little meeting took place, of course, right here on the campus, and I thought, 'Well, gosh, having an ex-president of the United States show this kind of interest, this will make a heck of an impression!'
"You know," Royal said, "we didn't get a one of those prospects."

I signed up for this program and was charged $1.97 for an information kit. I immediately received an email stating I would be charged $76.97 a month, plus $19.97 a month for some Expense Tracker that I never signed up for.
My gut told me this was a ripoff so I called the phone number in the email (877-204-7404) right after I signed up on Saturday, then I tried to call four times yesterday (Monday) and once today (Tuesday). Every time I call I have been on hold for at least 30 minutes. Once time yesterday I called the number and my call couldnt be connected. I have emailed but of course they tell you that you cannot cancel by email.
So I have contacted my credit card company to be on the lookout for these charges, and I had to request a new card to avoid the $76.97 and the $19.97 charges.
BEWARE of this company!!! DO NOT SIGN UP!!! The only ones making money on this is them.

Beyonce Halftime Show Performance: Grade It!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
So... how did she do?
Following her controversial Inaugural performance of the national anthem, we can finally move past Beyonce Lip Sync Gate - and focus instead on the superstar's performance at today's Super Bowl XLVII halftime show.
It followed the Alicia Keys national anthem rendition and featured black leather and lace... a fiery guitar... some serious dance moves... renditions of "Crazy in Love," "End of Love" and, of course, a Destiny's Child reunion!
Grade the Beyonce halftime show performance now:
nice song
Beyonce can't dance. she does the same hip shake move all the time. Very basic amatuerish stuff. her back up dancers must be laughing at the simple routines they have to mimic.
15 of us watched the halftime show, without exception, had to put clothes pins on our noses. In a word, it stank. Someone said amazing? Amazingly bad. That's two recent strikes for the diva. One more and she's on the bench.
I wonder what made the NFL choose Knowles and Destineys Child to perform at the Super Bowl. Her recent re-emmergence into the top spotlights has began only with her connections to Barak Obama and partying with him to the Innaguration and now this. Kinda reminds me of J.F. Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe. I'm not arguing her talent...or lack of it..which ever side you're on, but Obama seems to be into everything but the presidency, for example; The Martin/Zimmerman case, Could it be that he is also responsible for this? Why the Super Bowl to headline Their reunion? Its no wonder Hollywood supports Obama if he is using the Presidential powers to further some ppls careers. It would also stand to reason, if he does this for Hollywood he would do it for the media n general and others pushing the rest of us aside. Now tell me that YOU can trust the media and Hollywoods endorsement of Obama when its bought n paid for. PEOPLE! Next time MAKE UP YOUR OWN MINDS!
Her talent becomes more questionable with every performance.
First lip syncing for the phone president, then this.....a lot of strutting and shaking, not much singing, just wailing one note constantly. And the Destinys child reunion? Who cares? Not exactly the Beatles getting back together.
Uh, Steve Urkel....Beyonce stole your spastic act.
Even Beyonce's performance was nothing we havent seen her do in stream of award shows during the last 5 years, made it very predictable but it still was entertaining to watch. She had a tough act to follow . Last years Superbowl performance by Madonna and Guest Artists set the bar way too high. Entertaining and unpredictable yet wishing that the halftime show be an hour instead of 12
You are kidding, right? Madonna sucks, too.
I think she was beautiful, but not impressed with performance. It just wasn't what the hype made it out to be. And the reunion of Destiny's Child was not all that either. The way she shooed Kelly and Michelle off at the end, was kind of the way they were treated when the group was recording together. Beyonce the center of attention the other girls just there.
She looked cracked up.
She did Amazing!!!!!!!! As always!!! But I wish she performed Run The World. Every time she performs Run The World, the performance is completely phenomenal!!! Because it's do different each time and I just love that song!!! And it would've been perfect because she had the all girl band and dancers. But she was whipping that weave!!! LOVE YOU BEYONCÈ!! And the people that think she didn't do well, I understand that that's your opinion and that you have every right to think that way, but I just want to see you all reign above all entertainers like she does. She's very positive and I just hate how people love these vulgar rappers these days who only rap about sex, drugs and money. They usually are the ones heading downhill later on in life!! Except Kendrick Lamar..........I LOOOOOVE KENDRICK LAMAR!!!!! Sorry I changed the subject a little, I never fail to. :D YA BISH!!
With her husband's money, anyone of us could reign supreme, that does not equate talent. She sucked.
I'm elated the super bowl sponsers blessed us with Beyonce the most beautiful and best entertainer in the world! As well as the second most beautiful and best entertainer Alicia Keys! I never miss a opportunity to see them live or otherwise. The AKHIS love and support these beautiful ladies!
Beyonce beautiful, not so much. Beyonce talented, not at all. Ms. Keys...beautiful and talented. Ms. Keys talented? Why yes Ms. Keys is talented, she can sing on command without the studio equipment for which Beyonce's husband pays so dearly for. Oh, and Ms. Keys can do all this while keeping her clothes on. THAT is talent.

Alexander Wang [Rex]
Working across continents on two different labels is commonplace within the fashion industry. Take Marc Jacobs for example, until his departure from Louis Vuitton earlier this month, he managed to split his time between Paris and New York for his duties for the luxury fashion house and his eponymous lines for the past 16 years. Or Jeremy Scott: the announcement of his appointment at Moschino means his schedule will now be halved, part L.A., part Milano. Another man who knows more of that Atlantic stretch than others will now be Alexander Wang. Since he took creative directorship at Balenciaga last November, the wunderkind has been in a whirlwind of press coverage, archival adventures and extra work.
'Essentially it's double the amount of work. But it's been so enriching and such a challenge that I've really enjoyed. I really took it on as a way to see myself incorporate into a different business structure, something that might challenge me in the way that my own company may be able to grow into in a few years or a decade, etc. It's definitely been an amazing ride,' he tells WWD's Bridget Foley, admitting also that jet lag is just something he's become used to.
Alex cosies up to Georgia May Jagger backstage at the Wang S/S'14 show [Jason Lloyd Evans]
As for distinguishing the Wang aesthetic and that of a Parisian maison: '…going into Balenciaga, of course it was a completely new challenge that I'm not used to, but in a way, it really gave me discipline, gave me a way of creating codes and to dig for certain things and find things and make them more au currant, and make them more recognizable to speak to a much larger audience.'
Balenciaga's latest campaign for autum/winter 2013
With just eight years under his belt – and even some early confusion over whether to work in editorial or design, interning at Teen Vogue and Vogue as well as Marc Jacobs and Derek Lam - Californian-born Alex has achieved more than many can dream of in a lifetime. 'When I was in school and I was quite uncertain after I got to Parsons and I was quite uncertain about courses I was taking, I just thought why not, let's do an internship in editorial and find out about the other side, whether it was editors, stylists, photographers, and how the whole process works. I did it for a year.' And that impressive growth within the crazy biz of design isn't lost on him, either: 'I never thought eight years ago in 2007 starting my first collection and selling, I remember the first time it shipped.
