UConn makes 3-D copies of antique instrument parts
STORRS — Researchers at the University of Connecticut are using medical technology to breathe new life into some antique musical instruments.
Dr. Robert Howe says his medical practice in Massachusetts showed him how computerized tomography could make precise 3-D images of body parts. As a doctoral student in music history, he realized the same CT scanning could help study and recreate delicate woodwinds from the past.

You know you're in dangerous sci-fi waters when a world has a made-up swear word. Battlestar's 'frak'. Judge Dredd's 'drokk'. Infinite Space gives us 'grus'. Syntactical reverse engineering struggles to pinpoint the exact meaning. "What the grus!" suggests 'hell', but that doesn't translate well to "what a load of grus". "Grus you!" suggests something worse. Normally we'd file fictional swear words alongside nobbly prosthetic foreheads and reach for the off switch. But normally, developers Platinum and Nude Maker aren't at the helm.
This is pure melodrama. Farmer seeks life as Zero-G Dog (the space equivalent of the cool kids doing BMX tricks down at the bus station). As boy becomes man he faces pirates, politics and artifacts from beyond the stars. Allegiances form and rivalries burn ferociously. Enemies become lovers. Boy robots become girl robots. A geek cross dresses and almost gets molested by hairy space pirates. Epic events carry Infinite Space. Lift them and comical, nuanced life teems underneath.
At the heart is your ship: a build-it-yourself beauty and one of the best RPG heroes of all time. Ships show you how meaningless most traditional RPG stats are. Strength, defence, dexterity: these are cold numerical parts of an invisible math formula. Installing an engine, shield barrier or crew cabin into your ship makes an unmistakable difference. Fast ships sprint across battlefields like Road Runner.
Radar rooms let cowardly captains fire from afar. Installing a second bridge helps laser fire accurately thump into enemy hulls. Build it and fun will come. When did you last relish in a +1 increase in Psyduck's SP defence?
Ships are skeletal frames waiting for parts, or modules, to be inserted. Space is tight. Do you champion crew happiness or the tech they maintain? Every inch given to meatlings is one taken from guns, shields and engines. We swiftly jettisoned manners out the airlock after our initial boat of pampered space idiots exploded in flames after a single dink to the hood. Middle ground doesn't necessarily have to be found – with a fleet of multiple ships, specialist designs can complement the whole.
It's not perfect – the way that you can't see ship stats in the building screen is a glaring omission. Trying to weigh up the pros and cons of five ships in unison is also tricky with only one set of stats on screen at any time. The amount of factors you control is unbelievable for a DS game and, at times, a little unworkable. But when you fire the cannons you've struggled so hard to tune, however, much is forgiven…
Combat initially seems simple. As a battle gauge fills, attacks become available. There are three levels of attack: dodge, fire and barrage. A smart relationship exists between the three: dodges avoid potentially fatal barrages, but amplify normal projectiles into something much worse. Thus begins the waiting game. Is a dormant enemy charging up a barrage or waiting for you to dodge? We love making the right call: dodging a barrage and unleashing our full arsenal on an enemy too depleted to dodge back.
It's a double-edged sword: victory and failure on a single button press. We've never cursed louder than the hundreds of times a barrage has sent us to the title screen. We've never cheered harder than the times we've defeated an entire fleet on a sliver of health and a whole lot of foresight. Over time, the lack of options actually emphasises how ship design can alter proceedings. A less fatigued crew raises the battle gauge faster. Long-range weapons place hero Yuri out of reach. Play fast and furious or with methodical cunning? What other RPG can boast such a responsive combat system?
And don't the devs know it, structuring missions to test your grasp of every facet. In one mission you target specific ships in the fleet. In another, you try to lure enemies into a trap without firing a shot. The addition of anti-air units ten hours in reinvents the system again – now you have hundreds of fighter ships in your metal belly. A warning: save often. Tinkering costs money and investing in a poor ship design can heighten some difficulty spikes (and there are many) to near impossible size. A single save file can paint you into a corner.
What Infinite Space lacks in the soft approachability of a Pokemon or Mario RPG, it makes up for in bombastic scale and mettle. Hundreds of planets. Hundreds of interesting, fully formed characters. Hundreds of lasers, mess halls and intergalactic toilets to equip. Infinite Space feels like proper grown-up gaming and a proper grown-up journey. Our hero grows from man to boy, and the DS matures with him. Brutally uncompromising, but never anything other than ridiculously silly fun, Infinite Space really is a grusing revelation.

text: I was tossing around a Glock and the MP9 . The MP9 felt better in my hand. Still waiting on my permit should be another 4 weeks I hope. I figured I buy a gun so they would have a serial number when giving me the permit and not waiting again for them to add the gun later. I am 5'8 about 200lbs and built pretty big , not heavy. I was wondering will I have a problem concealing and what holster would be better to help conceal it. I am open to an IWB or OWB holster.

Music of the homophonic-melodic style of composition, that is, music with a main theme, accompanied by and based on harmony, produces material by, as I call it, developing variation. This means that variation of the features of a basic unit produces all the thematic formulations which provide for fluency, contrasts, variety, logic and unity on the one hand, and character, mood, expression, and ever needed differentiation, on the other hand—thus elaborating the idea of the piece.
Arnold Schoenberg, from "Bach" (1950)
This fall our series of three concerts on the theme "Various Variations" began with a new treatment of Bach's Goldberg Variations. Our second concert was introduced by a quote from Robert Schumann identifying Bach as the one indispensable source for composers of all music that was to follow.
For our third and final fall concert on the same theme—in the music of Bach, Beethoven, and others–we offer some of the most beloved music of Johannes Brahms in three consecutive opuses: 99, 100, and 101, all played for the first time on November 24th and December 2nd, and 20th 1886, respectively. In these works Brahms unfolds music that Arnold Schoenberg was to cite as primary examples of music in which "nothing [is] repeated without promoting the development of the music, and that can only happen by way of far-reaching variations."
With very few words and tantalizingly short examples, Arnold Schoenberg describes the process of unfolding basic materials, motifs and intervals, into large pieces through a technique he called developing variation. Every aspect of the music is derived from the first material one hears. Schoenberg recognized Brahms as the latest in a series of supreme masters of the art and tried to associate the creation of his own music and techniques with this tradition. That only the strongest ideas could become great pieces by surviving the infinite traceable variations of a creative mind is not unknown in the era since Darwin's Evolution, Einstein's Relativity, and the "Big Bang Theory". Schoenberg's description of what goes on in Brahms's style and idea remains informative and compelling to this day.
On a personal note, I should say only recently I recalled that one of these three was the one around which I organized my late teenage and young adult life for a period of about five years. I went to every live performance I could find. It was my "desert island" piece then, and remains so today, even after knowing much more music and learning from Schoenberg how this one is supposed to work. I won't say which one it is. Nor, do I have any explanation why none of these includes viola. That's for another time.

5 Secrets to Softer, Smoother Skin
Follow these steps to stop dryness before it starts
By Woman's Day Staff
Massage your scalp
Your skin does not stop at your hairline—and neither does the need to moisturize. Many styling products, like hairspray, are formulated with alcohol, which can dry out your scalp and cause irritation. To ward off flakes and itchiness (or treat them if it's too late), put a drop of vitamin E oil on your fingertips and massage directly onto your scalp in small circles. Worried about greasy hair? Try this trick at night. Plus, vitamin E oil has a unique way of quickly melting into skin so it won't build up and weigh down your locks.

text: In my opinion charter has a pretty crappy website so I'm not surprised. I couldn't find 'em either. However Bud's has them in stock and ready to ship. I noticed a couple others also had them. Bud's is asking $408 with free shipping. In doing my homework though I find a very mixed bag of reviews of Charter guns in general. Seems like if you get a good one then it's a great gun. But seems to be way to many owners with locked up cylinders and other problems with very few rounds fired. Much as I like the idea of getting a snubbie in .40 cal I don't think I would feel comfortable carrying a pistol that will "probably" work. Unless I can find some evidence to indicate that charters problems have been solved I will get the LCR .357. I've owned a few different Rugers over the years and have never been given a reason to question their integrity.

Welcome to July. The days have already become unbearable but finally the rain probability is on the rise and we are starting to see some of those afternoon summer thunderstorms.

SAVANNAH - The Savannah Ronald McDonald House will host the Chef of the House Challenge on June 27-July 1, July 25-29 and Aug. 22-26.
Tybee Island, 20 minutes east of Savannah, will host its annual Independence Day fireworks display the Sunday evening with the first explosion expected at about 9:30 p.m. The official start time is thirty minutes after dark.
The annual Independence Day "Worth Fighting For" is next weekend and kicks off with a golf scramble at 9 a.m. Friday at Taylors Creek.

If I told you I just got back from seeing a comic-book movie, you'd probably have a hard time guessing which one. There are so many out there these days, but one prequel features my absolute favorite superhero team. Which is it? Well, I like to "Make Mine Marvel" and for that reason, "Uncanny X-Men" was my favorite comic book as a kid.
"Exodus: Gods and Kings" is another attempt by Hollywood to embrace spirituality on the big screen.
Ah, yes, it's that time of year again.
"The Penguins of Madagascar" is a spin-off from the successful "Madagascar" animated franchise, and while it has its moments of energy and humor, I think it would've been much more successful as a DVD release.
The "Hunger Games" series continues with the recently released third installment, "Mockingjay - Part 1," which goes the same route that worked for both the "Harry Potter" and "Twilight" series: Split the final chapter into two parts to milk the proverbial cash cow.

Best Restaurants
Out of all the restaurants in a city, 10Best narrows the options to those places with the most appeal and the best reputations. We offer carefully vetted selections to let you explore Panama City dining on your own. If time is really tight, though, and you don't have the leisure to look through all our offerings, we present our Panama City Best Restaurants list. Here, we distill the best businesses down to a special selection of ten. These places promise a stellar experience and a taste of the city that you just can't miss.
7 Pineapple Willy's
This popular Panama City eatery serves up a full menu of favorites from its perch on the beach. Try the Jack Daniels-basted BBQ ribs (Pineapple Willy's is famous for 'em) or the traditional-style seafood specials. The place's friendly staff and casual ambience combine to serve up a good night on the town, especially for sightseers and families looking for a great meal at a very reasonable price. (850-235-0928)
6 Captain Anderson's
For more than 35 years, this popular and critically lauded family-style seafood restaurant has been a key stop for beachcombers thanks to its fire-grilled specialties. Try Capt. Anderson's "Famous" grilled Bay shrimp, oven-broiled stuffed Florida lobster with crab meat dressing, or flavorful tenderloin of grouper. If seafood is not your thing, order one of the delicious, cooked-to-order steaks. There is a separate children's menu and an extensive wine list. Be sure to visit the on-site market for fresh seafood, souvenirs and cookbooks. (850-234-2225, 888-878-6750)
5 Angelo's Steak Pit
Angelo's is a critical and local fave for hickory pit-grilled USDA Choice steaks. Indeed, residents say you haven't had real food until you make the trip to this casual restaurant. The succulent, seared menu also features pit-broiled chicken and seafood favorites. If you go the red meat route, be sure to sample their signature sauce. Try your main course with a salad and your choice of chowder or potato, or pick and choose from the a la carte menu. Add a bit of class to the meal with a glass of wine, and be sure to save room for slice of their sinful Key lime or French silk pie. (850-234-2531)
4 Saltwater Grill
Be sure to check out the giant 25,000-gallon tropical aquarium at this Panama City eatery that's earned a great reputation for its food and festive ambience. Dine in the Café or the Mermaid Room. No question, lobster stars here, but other fresh fish and seafood dishes are also worth trying -- macadamia-encrusted grouper or grilled mahi mahi, for example. Those looking for something beyond seafood will find excellent steaks and prime rib. Be sure to hang around and sing along to the piano music each Tuesday through Saturday. (850-230-2739)
3 Boatyard
Located on the Grand Lagoon, the Boatyard is accessible by land and sea and draws high marks for its casual, Island-themed ambience and sterling cuisine. Start off with white clam chili or a lobster relleno. From there, move on to the "Tastes of the Keys": coconut-crusted grouper or Key lime garlic shrimp, for example. Their Apalachicola oysters -- baked, Rockefeller or coconut fried -- are justifiably popular choices as well. A late night menu, spirited bar area and good live music ensure this seafooder entertains well into the Gulf night. (850-249-9273)
2 30 Degree Blue
Customers always ask, "How'd this place get its name?" Owners explain the name comes from the location of this casually upscale restaurant -- 30 degrees latitude and overlooking the blue waters of the Gulf. Menu items are as creative as the name. Seared and bacon-wrapped scallops or veal chop stuffed with figs, foie gras and manchego cheese are delectable and perfectly prepared. Be sure to couple your dinner with a choice wine selection. Friendly service, a casual ambience and breathtaking Gulf views make for a first-rate evening out. (850-236-1115)
1 Boar's Head Restaurant & Tavern
This relaxed eatery serves up fresh local seafood dishes as well as a few ditties that let diners explore the wilder side of the culinary spectrum. Try the baby back ribs, a tender veal medallion or succulent prime rib for a deliciously hearty meal. Marine appetites find nothing but smooth sailing thanks to dishes like crab-stuffed grouper. Of course, the more adventurous can go all out and order a combination that takes char-grilled or blackened venison and pairs it with stuffed quail. (850-234-6628)

Havent been. I will have to check it out.
891 14th St.
Denver, CO 80202
We fell head over heels in love with Row 14's wine list the first time we laid eyes on it. Curated with a heady mix of precision, nuance and a food-focused viewpoint by owner David Schneider, this list reads like a wine geek's all-star lineup of fantasy bottles, and is definitely edgier than other rosters in this city — edgier, but not unapproachable. Oenophile-worthy bottles of chenin blanc and grüner veltliner cuddle up to familiar pinot grigio; varietal cab franc and carmenère share space with pinots from around the globe. But what truly makes this list so sublime is its ongoing, wholehearted dedication to repping the entire wide world of wine — and that includes paying respect via its "Colorado Proud" flight to some of the best bottles to be found right here in our own back yard.
Havent been. I will have to check it out.
The blogger does a partnership with them, but isn't listed as buyer. Still fishy if she had anything to do with decision but who knows if she did.
What exactly makes a list more "edgy" and why do I want an edgy wine list? By saying it isn't unapproachable do you mean it's short? Familiar? Row 14 has an ok list, but definitely not the best, not even close.
Not even the best list in lodo...
Isn't the Westword wine blogger the buyer at Row 14?? Who decided this?
the wine is great!

Good Points
Siemens ME45 has got everything it needs for a mobile, excelent calendar!! Easy to use, and it just won't break!
Bad Points
None !
General Comments
Siemens ME45 is such an amazing phone! I've been using my phone since 2001 and it didn't give me any problem or whatsoever.. It's fallen a number of times, and it just won't break! I live in Portugal and I surf a lot, it often falls in the sand, and it gets wet, and nothing! It's been working wonderfully well since the day I bought it. I love the calendar in it, I still love the design.. Siemens really impressed them with this phone.
I'm not even sure if I want the 65 series... I know it's got camera in built and stuff, but that makes the battery lasts less, which is not a good thing for me, because I always forget to charge it, and this one, the battery seems to last forever!

everybody leaving wptv. whats going on. they had the best news talent in palm beach,now they are the worst.i think some of them beening push out.
let's predict who will leave next. I predict:
Shannon Cake
Bran G. was wonderful and will be sorely missed. I'm wondering also who will go next?? Still trying to figure out why Laurel left all of a sudden.
Brian, sorry about the typo above. I always liked seeing you on the news reporting.
not surprising that so many are leaving wptv.
the once respected station has become a laughing stock.
they (staff) are all so arrogant –steve weagle, is repulsive, as are the other weather guys.
roxanne needs to go also–her day has long come and gone–the camera can no longer hide all of her wrinkles–anf the horrible eye makeup she wears makes every day seem like halloween
Nothing wrong with getting old. Not a Roxanne fan in the slightest but we all get old…

Locust You'll Be Safe Forever
- Words: Brandon Bussolini
- Label: Editions Mego
- XLR8R Rating: 8/10
From its unguarded emotion to its big, acoustic drums and touches of breakbeat-indebted syncopation, the new Locust (a.k.a. Mark Van Hoen) album sounds very '90s. Luckily, time has been kind to Van Hoen's sensibility, and it seems that the 12-year hiatus that followed Wrong—his previous album under the name—failed to sap his prior momentum. (Granted, he's also been releasing enthralling records under his birth name during this time, but he seemingly went dark for part of the the 2000s.) You'll Be Safe Forever sounds of a different time, but its execution is deliciously foreign. It preserves in itself, like the solid amber excretion from Jurassic Park, an entire structure. In this case, it's the affective structure that Van Hoen applies in his music, and the organism he resurrects is similarly unwieldy and magnificent.
The incredible anxiety surrounding genre and discernment in electronic music is not at play on You'll Be Safe Forever, and the effect is somewhat like stepping onto the surface of a planet with weaker gravity. The imperative everywhere in culture is to be tasteful above all things, and this has led to a situation where cultural products are aesthetically irreproachable and totally lacking in flavor or insight, the quality of being something in itself, rather than something only in relation to other things. Of course, it's not a difficult feat for Van Hoen, an artist who—despite the modesty of his renown—is not only thought of in terms of the still-fashionable side of IDM—Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada, and so on—but is also considered an influence on such enshrined home-listening music.
With "Fall for Me," Van Hoen lays out the album's agenda pretty shrewdly. Keening synths flush the surface with a summery, literary nostalgia, revealing the album's little green heart right away, but Van Hoen counters sentimentality with a leet flutter of chilly hi-hats. The interstitial "I Hear a Quiet Voice" follows, a 30-second vignette pairing more brittle, British modular sounds with uncanny vocal samples that coo and, further back, wail with incoherent pain. You'll Be Safe Forever proceeds in this indeterminate fashion, with Locust maintaining a razor's-edge balance between comforting and disruptive sounds. From a slightly more distant perspective, he seems to be evoking genres only to brush them off—without a doubt, Van Hoen's work has traits readily identifiable with certain ossified genres, but in his hands they are unsettled and unclichéd. The listener's subconscious might dredge up a besmirched label like "trip-hop," but it will never stick—these digressions simply reaffirm the project's uniqueness. It should be noted, if only for the sake of completeness, that aside from its relatively sunny disposition and a certain poppy compactness, the technique that guides You'll Be Safe Forever isn't much different from Van Hoen's previous album for Editions Mego under his own name, The Revenant Diary. It says much about Van Hoen's continued relevance that, rather than inspiring a sense of familiarity or stagnation, this recognition just makes us want to hear more.

My friend and I have been best friends for about three years. This past year we went into high school and we are making new friends and changing which may have strained our relationship.
We're at a stage in our friendship where we know so much about one another that we have nothing else to say. But I feel like she judges me constantly and I can no longer be myself when we're together, making me not want to be her friend anymore.
This has been building up for a while. I wanted to deny how bad things were getting but it's reached a point where I can't take if any more. We went from talking every night for hours to not even talking when we're together. We've talked about what has been happening so many times but things never seem to change or go back to normal.
It used be me, my BFF, and two other girls in our group but when one of the other girls left, it ended up being just the three of us. I knew either my BFF or me would become closer to the other girl and it happened. I feel excluded whenever I'm around them because they are in their own world now. I don't know what to do.

Christianity seems to be the most oblivious religion out there. A YEAR ago they placed a monument with the ten commandments in front of a court house.. and theyre whining when someone calls them on their shit? are you kidding me?
Stop being a cry baby and realize that when you try and merge church and state and proselytize to citizens of america that non-christians wont just lay down. Honestly did you expect zero resistance to such a religious creed on state grounds?

Im just borrowing the same brush your crew has been using throughout the thread to paint all atheists with. Most atheists really dont give a shit about stuff like this at all, its not even a blip on our radar, we have better things to do with our time than be militant.
Its just funny that the OP is forced to flamebait with crap like "This is the first atheist monument in the country and they focus on bashing Christianity. Does such intolerance have a legitimate place in our society? "
I am intrigued that everyone assumes that the 10 commandments are purely Christian. There are several versions of the 10 commandments out there, depending on one's religion (and the view their religion takes on the 10 commandments).
The 10 commandments existed long before christianity came into being,
There are 3 primary versions of the 10 commandments that I have been able to find. Based on what I see on the monument, it would appear that the version on the monument is the protestant version.
So, agreeing with the OP for the sake of the argument... It would seem that the AA's would be specifically trolling protestants
Oh, and here is the bench.
Personally, I'm interested in keeping other people from building Utopia, because the more you believe you can create heaven on earth the more likely you are to set up guillotines in the public square to hasten the process. -- James Lileks
Not sure why they think the 10 commandments are at all relevant to american law. Only 2 of those are actually laws (kill, steal). The rest are just considered a sin by christians and have no bearing whatsoever on the laws of the country.
No matter how helpful the feature, how easy it is to disable, or how good your intentions, someone somewhere will hate it and think you're a monster for implementing it.- Anonymous Developer
Arguably, fighting social decay is the whole point of law in the first place. Perhaps we would have a better society, were adultery criminal, people did not lust after things that do not belong to them (be they inanimate objects or actual people), and we had a culture that fostered a greater level of respect toward their parents in children.
Whether or not one actually believes in organized religion, it does offer quite a bit of productive material for a better society. It's problem is not that it doesn't offer some very good things, it's that the good information is surrounded by a lot of religious propaganda the church spewed in there for greater control of the masses.

Zeitgeist, the movie did not make this up originally, you can find several places on the Internet that make such claims, but there are no sources or suggestions as to where this information came from. It is highly possible all this originates from The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold - If you read the Amazon reviews, you can find that a lot of people who point out how the information is completely unsourced [8]. I went to Barnes and Nobel and actually found this book in the Christianity section. Needless to say it was completely unsourced and was like reading much the other "Christianity Conspiracy" books out there. So, if these claims all originate from this book, there's absolutely no evidence for it [9]. I should note that this book is used as a "source" in Zeitgeist, the movie [10]. And it is worth pointing out the title is only one word away from the title of this part of the movie "The Greatest Story Ever Sold" vs "The Greatest Story Ever Told".
I'm looking at the book right now and there are sources throughout. The Horus part comes mostly from the work of Thomas Doane (and he's quoted throughout the book) as well as Barbara Walker, Gerald Massey, Albert Churchward and a few others.
You can argue that the sources don't cite their research (and I can't say I've sourced the sources either) but to say that "The Greatest Story Ever Sold" in unsourced is quantifiably wrong.
Dallow, Spicer, Pinkie, Cubitt - rush to danger, wind up nowhere

All growth depends upon activity. There is no development physically or intellectually without effort, and effort means work. — Calvin Coolidge
"Under Barack Obama, the only 'change' is that 'hope' is hard to find" - Marco Rubio
I think the roots of social decay are a) parents working instead of raising kids (because of the economy) and b) technology. It's all well and good to have the wonders of the internet, but I think the anonymous nature of the internet is going to cause a serious problem with society and how we treat each other. I mean just look at the emergence of "trolls". People like that wouldn't exist (or at the very least, would be shunned by normal society) if everyone were still meeting and talking face-to-face. But the fact that people can say whatever they want anonymously with little-to-no social repercussions... I think that's going cause a lot of problems.
You (not necessarily you) might not agree with conclusions of Acharya S (the author of The Greatest Story Ever Sold) - I don't agree with them myself and I'm quite a militant mythist at times but the one thing you can never accuse her work of is lacking sources and citations.

Desvenlafaxine ( Pristiq ) is a novel form of the isolated major active metabolite of

It works by blocking the transporter "reuptake" proteins for key neurotransmitters affecting mood, thereby leaving more active neurotransmitters in the synapse. The neurotransmitters affected are serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline).

About Last Night: Opening Up
In case you were busy giving one final baseball stadium curtain call to the Captain of Captains, Tracy McGrady, here are the top five stories you missed in sports on Thursday:
In the open, open, Open Championship:
Rory McIlroy opened up a one-stroke lead at the British Open at the Royal Liverpool Golf Club after firing a bogey-free 6-under 66 in the tournament's opening round. When asked what changes in his personal life might have led to him shooting such a low number, McIlroy replied, "A lot of big changes, ins and outs, but one in particular stands out." When asked if he was referring to his ex-fiancée Caroline Wozniacki, McIlroy shook his head and said, "No, no, no. Luis Suárez to Barcelona. We were all goddamn terrified of coming to Liverpool before that went through. Do you know what a shoulder bite would do to my short game?"
In the tour! Tour! Tour de France!
Vincenzo Nibali maintained the yellow jersey at the Tour de France after the 12th-stage sprint from Bourg-en-Bresse to Saint-Étienne was won by Norwegian cyclist Alexander Kristoff. When asked what propelled him to the sprint victory after a number of second-place finishes, Kristoff admitted, "I have no idea. Frankly I don't see how bikes don't tip over. I mean, no one makes two-legged tables." Kristoff later withdrew from the Tour, citing his fear that he would "fall over and go boom."
In the dregs of NBA free-agency news:
Jimmer Fredette signed a one-year deal with the Pelicans while the Lakers acquired forward Carlos Boozer off amnesty waivers as the team continues its strange offseason rebuilding process. "We're working hard to recapture our glory days," team vice-president Jim Buss said. "Nick Van Exel, Vlade Divac, Eddie Jones, Cedric Ceballos — that's the sort of 'between good teams' nucleus we're trying to construct." Buss then smiled and said, "And Boozer? Not only does he have a hilarious name, but he's a modern Elden Campbell." Buss then looked around at a room full of blank stares and said, "You guys remember Elden Campbell, right? Come on! Elden Campbell! What a legend! He was our team's scoring leader for the '90s. Seriously! You can Bing that."
In the dregs of NFL offseason news:
The San Francisco 49ers opened Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell adding the ominous note that he views the stadium as a potential solution for the Oakland Raiders if that team cannot get a new stadium deal. "Christ, Roger, no," said the 49ers collectively in response. "The Raiders? Sharing our place? They're a mess. I'm sorry, but they are." The 49ers then sighed and said, "It's not personal. It's just that they're gross and we really don't want to share a locker room with them. I mean, look, we can meet them somewhere for drinks or whatever, but we can't share a place until they grow up and get their act together." The 49ers then described the raw sewage situation at the Raiders' current place before adding, "Come on, brah. Roger, come on."
Goodell also announced that the 2015 draft will be held in either Los Angeles or Chicago, as scheduling issues have prevented the NFL from continuing to hold the event at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. When Goodell was asked why Los Angeles, which does not have an NFL team, was in the running, the commissioner replied, "Have you seen this place? It's really hip. I think it's SoCal's undiscovered gem." When asked if he was serious, Goodell said, "Absolutely. Sunshine all year long. Babes on the beaches. Celebrities around every corner. Great Mexican food. It's like SXSW all year long. I can't believe we'd never thought about having a team here before."
