Blasphemous Obama painting goes viral Comments
Last weekend we had Jamie Foxx say that Obama was our "lord and savior." Now, we have the picture to prove it, or so we paraphrase former GOP candidate Herman Cain's tweet which alludes to a new Obama painting which most find to be blasphemous. Continue Reading

[Hi, here is something that I saw on the web & would like to get reactions to it.]
Who Needs Holy Catholics?
There's already enough holy stuff:
Holy Father, Holy Mother, Holy Week, Holy Virgin, Holy Water, Holy Orders, Holy Bingo, Holy Savior, Holy Family, Holy Matrimony, Holy Oils, and Holy Communion. So who needs Holy Catholics, especially in politics?
The New Testament (Phil. 2:9-11) says that "Jesus" is "a name which is above every name." Since many have viewed Catholicism as a "blasphemous counterfeit" of true Christianity, shouldn't the Pope tell folks in Catholic countries to quit naming their boys "Jesus" and threaten to excommunicate them if they do? Wouldn't this be a step in the right direction?
(Believe it or not, the above message was inspired by "good Catholics" like Boehner, Biden, Pelosi and Madonna!) -

No Judy. But the right is the only faction talking about it. I think they sensationalize this garbage and keep it going. They get everyone riled up but and for what? So everyone can whine?
When Obama first ran, it broke me of right wing talk. This last cycle broke me of news in general. I've hardly followed anything since the election. I find I have way more peace.
All of this stuff is just noise. -

It's been brought up repeatedly here (in an accusatory tone) that 50% of Catholics voted for Obama. The Hispanic population is overwhelmingly Catholic. Hispanics were the only group he won by huge margin and I do mean HUGE.
How much of that 50% vote do you suppose was purchased from our Hispanic brethren with the little backdoor amnesty stunt he pulled just a few months before the election? What politically brilliant timing. What was Romney going to say that would trump ' Don't worry about a thing, your family members and friends who are here illegally are in. Don't forget to vote! '?
I'm not going to throw out some bogus statistic about how many of these folks are represented in this '50% of Catholics' number but it would be naive to think it's not a BUNCH.
Something to think about before you pull the trigger on a phrase like "you Catholics" brothers and sisters. -

Roseann Graham, Ditto!
Rob, Are you saying that the right is making it up? Bear in mind, i am Free and Independent and Catholic. Being such, I would not consider it a Right thing. Existing in Reality however, it exists in the Truth. Therefore, Considered neither Left or Right. Prayerful Blessings... -

By viral, does this site mean on right wing sites? I've only seen this referenced by the right?
Seems to me the editors could save us all some time if we are going to have the same rhetoric of the last four years for the next four. Just cut and paste the comments. -

The Liberal Left hates God, religion, and the Church. Since they have no god of religion, they create their own religion and their own god. The religion of the Liberal Left is "Liberalism". Whatever "Talking Points" the Liberal Leaders vomit, their robot followers swallow and digest these 'Talking Points' as gospel truth. The god god of the robot followers is whoever their current leader is. Right now, it's Obama. So, he is their god. Bill Clinton was and still is a god in their programmed minds. Whatever they say is gospel truth and they can do no wrong. Their god can commit murder but they will fight to the death defending them against their accusers. This is Jaime Lee Foxx and all the Obamabots.

Whatever Jamie Foxx said or this artist portrayed does not mean that President(he still has that title!)Obama endorses these ridiculous ideas. By coming out and commenting on them President Obama might draw more attention to these two irrelevant people. No matter what, Christ reigns and the foolish statements and acts of some His creation does not diminish that. Whether we like or dislike the current President he needs our prayers so that his positions on moral issues might be changed to reflect what would please our Lord. Our God has the power to do that and we need to be the agents of His love, not judgement.

This is ridiculous! Nothing could be farther from the Truth. All Catholics/Christians must practice Our Lord of Patience. St. Francis was the first to receive the stigmata of Christ. One vow of all Franciscans is also to follow Our Lord in Patience. Patience. Both Our Lord and St. Francis had Patience while suffering, ever, and continuing in Prayer. While Always fulfilling their daily duties.
I say this not to introduce a new topic, but to remind all of us, including myself, how, in my mere opinion, we may react. I share this, because, until I know, or hear of anything more, this is all that I can do or say that would be of any use to anyone for now. Blessings...

Ricardo Collazo-canales, Manuel Melgar and Amber Reaves Plead Guilty in U.S. Federal Cour
Bill Mercer, United States Attorney for the District of Montana, announced today that during a federal court session in Billings on September 1, 2009, before Chief U.S. District Judge Richard F. Cebull, RICARDO COLLAZO-CANALES, MANUEL MELGAR, and AMBER REAVES, residents of Billings, pled guilty.
COLLAZO-CANALES pled guilty to possession with the intent to distribute cocaine.
MANUEL MELGAR pled guilty to conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute cocaine.
AMBER REAVES pled guilty to conspiracy to maintain drug involved premises.
Sentencing is set for December 3, 2009.
MELGAR is currently detained and COLLAZO-CANALES and REAVES are released on special conditions.
In Offers of Proof filed by Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph E. Thaggard, the government stated it would have proved at trial the following:
In August 2007, the Montana Division of Criminal Investigation and the Drug Enforcement Administration began to investigate the trafficking of cocaine by a criminal organization located in Billings. The investigation revealed that the leader of the organization in Billings was D.B.
As part of the investigation, law enforcement officers purchased a total of four ounces of purported cocaine from two individuals in August and September of 2007. One of the individuals later told law enforcement that COLLAZO-CANALES had provided the cocaine to him. The individual also stated that he received a total of 20 ounces of cocaine from COLLAZO-CANALES and then distributed the cocaine.
Other witnesses from Billings would have testified that they had also purchased cocaine from COLLAZO-CANALES. Collectively, the evidence would have established that COLLAZO-CANALES had possessed, with the intent to distribute, 500 grams or more of a substance containing a detectable amount of cocaine.
The investigation also found that between March 26, 2008, and July 10, 2008, MELGAR distributed a total of nine ounces and one gram of a substance containing a detectable amount of cocaine to an undercover agent. That cocaine was provided to MELGAR by COLLAZO-CANALES.
A witness would have testified that he directly provided seven ounces of cocaine to MELGAR for distribution. Given the amount of drugs MELGAR distributed to the undercover agent over the course of the conspiracy, the amount of drugs witnesses would have testified had been provided to MELGAR, and MELGAR'S assumption of the role as a subordinate dealer of D.B.'s, the amount of cocaine attributable to MELGAR as part of the conspiracy was at least 500 grams of a substance containing a detectable amount of cocaine.
MELGAR subsequently admitted that he stored cocaine at a residence he and his girlfriend, REAVES, maintained in Billings.
A witness would have testified that REAVES knew the residence was employed for the use and distribution of cocaine.
COLLAZO-CANALES and MELGAR each face possible penalties of a mandatory minimum of 5 years in prison and could be sentenced to 40 years, a $2,000,000 fine and at least 4 years supervised release.
REAVES faces possible penalties of 20 years in prison, a $500,000 fine and 3 years supervised release.
The investigation was a cooperative effort between the Montana Division of Criminal Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Messi helps Barcelona advance
in UEFA Champions League
Lionel Messi started one of soccer's classic comebacks with two first-half goals, and FC Barcelona of Spain overwhelmed visiting AC Milan of Italy to reach its sixth straight UEFA Champions League quarterfinal.
Messi scored in the fifth and 40th minutes, and Barcelona went on to a 4-0 victory Tuesday that gave it a 4-2 aggregate decision in the home-and-home, total-goals series. Barcelona became the first team to advance in Europe's top club competition after losing the first leg 2-0 on the road.
"We went out gunning from the start, and scoring early helped us," said David Villa, who scored the third goal. "We have believed in the comeback ever since we lost in Milan, and belief combined with hard work is how you achieve things."
Before a screaming crowd of 99,786 at Camp Nou, Europe's largest stadium, Messi scored from 17 and 19 yards.
"For anyone who doubted Messi, today Messi gave a lesson on how to play football," said Barcelona assistant Jordi Roura, in charge of the team while manager Tito Vilanova is being treated for a throat tumor in New York.
Barcelona is seeking its fourth Champions League title in eight years.
"Barcelona is still the best team in the world. Moving on was a true feat," Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri said. "The first leg didn't change these two teams, and whoever thought so was wrong. We played worse than in the first leg, but that is to Barcelona's credit."
In another Champions League match, Galatasaray of Turkey won 3-2 at Schalke of Germany to advance on 4-3 aggregate and reach the quarterfinals for the first time since 2001.

text: Banksy has taken his provocative and inspiring brand of vandalism to sites worldwide, from the Sydney Opera House to Cuba. A media favourite for stunts like hanging his own work in the Tate gallery, but a popular star long before any of that. Banksy brought UK graphic art to an international audience through his street works, painted animals, screen prints, books, and was finally honoured in 2009 with a hometown show at the Bristol Museum shortly before the global release of his first feature film. Despite pleading not guilty to selling out, the artist concedes that he now does so from a bigger house than he used to.

The event is set to take place at Old Saint Phillips Baptist Church from 5-6:30 p.m.
Refreshments and free medical screenings will be provided.
Walgreens Store Manager Andre Harris said this in one of many outreach programs that the store sponsors.
"Walgreens has an outreach program where we go out into the community and do events that are related to health and wellness," said Harris.
"Last year we partnered with different non - faith organizations in the state of Mississippi and here locally, we partnered the Bolivar County Baptist Association to focus on more health and wellness in the community," he added.
The following health screenings will be administered: hypertension, A1C, bone, weight and HIV.
"I feel that this event is important because in our community, there are so many health issues and some of them are preventable," said Harris.
"High blood pressure, obesity and HIV are greatly impacting our community and we fill that early detection is key," he added.
According to the Mississippi Department of Health and Human Services, more than 700,000 Mississippi adults have high blood pressure and thousands more may be at risk.
High blood pressure increases a person's risk of heart disease and stroke, two of the leading causes of death in the United States.
It can also lead to kidney disease, blindness and mental impairment.
High blood pressure can be controlled or prevented entirely by taking the right steps.
Hypertension affects all ages and races.
"It is free testing and I would like to encourage the community to come out because it is good to know your stats or your results. We want everyone to know where they stand with their health and wellness," said Harris.
"Students from the Delta State Nursing Program will be administering hypertension, A1C and weight," he added.
According to the Mississippi Department of Health and Human Services Mississippi has the highest rate and greatest percentage of people living with HIV in the country.
A Mississippian with HIV/AIDS is almost twice as likely to die than the average American with the virus; HIV-positive African-Americans in Mississippi are ten times as likely to die from it than whites.
African-Americans are only 37.5 percent of the population, but represent 78 percent of new HIV infections.
"Aaron E. Henry Community Health Services Center will be administering the free HIV screenings. There are people in our community who are walking around with illnesses but they are too afraid to go to the doctor and some of them just simply do not know that they are sick," said Harris.
Harris said the event would also feature medical or medicine counseling.
"Walgreens will also be there administering different types of testing and providing medicine therapy and counseling," he continued.
"Medical therapy is basically when a pharmacist advises patients on how to take certain types of medication. I feel that this is important because sometimes people go to different doctors and they do not know the safe way that they should take their medicine," he added.
For more information, contact Harris at 662-846-5781.

Release: 24 June 2010
Genre: Drama, Action
- Dennis To
- Sammo Hung
- Yuen Biao
- Louis Fan
- Huang Yi
As a child, Ip Man learns Wing Chun from Chan Wah-shun together with Ip Tin-chi (Ip Man's adopted brother) and Lee Mei-wai. After Chan's death from an illness, Ip Man continues to learn Wing Chun from his senior, Ng Chung-sok, before eventually leaving Foshan to study in Hong Kong.
In Hong Kong, after a field hockey match, Ip Man and his schoolmates are racially insulted by a Westerner. Ip Man takes offense to the language. The Westerner then slurs them in Chinese. Ip Man challenges the Westerner to a fight and defeats him. Ip Man's notoriety and popularity soar after the incident. While getting medicine to treat the Westerner whom he now refers to as a friend, he meets master Leung Bik, who is actually the son of Leung Jan, Chan Wah-shun's teacher. Ip Man learns a different, improved style of Wing Chun from Leung and his prowess in martial arts improves tremendously. Meanwhile in Foshan, Ip Tin-chi rose to become a prominent businessman under another Wing Chun martial arts association.
Ip Man returns to Foshan years later and reunites with his peers. Ng Chung-sok sees that Ip Man has mastered a new style of Wing Chun from Leung Bik, which differs from Chan Wah-shun's orthodox style. Ip Man also later falls in love with Cheung Wing-shing, the daughter of the vice-mayor of Foshan. When Lee Mei-wai realises that Ip Man loves Cheung, she accepts Ip Tin-chi's love for her. On their wedding night, her godfather is murdered and Ip Man is arrested as a prime suspect after being witnessed struggling with him. Cheung later lied that Ip Man was with her the entire evening to have him released from jail. Lee discovers a letter to Ip Tin-chi, revealing his involvement in the murder of her godfather. She was saved by Ip Tin-chi when she attempted suicide and both of them leave for Foshan but are stopped by the Japanese. Lee is captured and Ip Tin-chi is forced to kill Ng Chung-sok because Lee showed the letter to him.
At the martial arts association, Ng Chung-sok was defeated by Ip Tin-chi and the Japanese. Ip Man arrives in time to save Ng Chung-sok from being killed and then subsequently defeats the Japanese and Ip Tin-chi. Ip Tin-chi then reveals that he is actually a Japanese and was sent to China to infiltrate and work as an undercover agent. He then performs seppuku to end his life. Ip Man rushes off to the pier to rescue Lee. He defeats the Japanese and rescues Lee. At the pier, they discover that the Japanese have been smuggling Japanese children to China, possibly as future undercover agents, similar to Ip Tin-chi.
Ng Chung-sok is seen narrating the story of the night to new apprentices at the martial arts association. Ip Man's son, Ip Chun, is seen among the new apprentices. Ip Man arrives back at the association and is shown married to Cheung.

A Blanchard man was arrested Wednesday for sex crimes involving juveniles over 10 years ago, said Caddo Sheriff Steve Prator.
Jimmy Garland Canada, 63, of the 200 block of Juliet Street, turned himself in on a warrant obtained by Sheriff's Det. Jared Marshall. Canada was booked into the Caddo Correctional Center on two counts of molestation of a juvenile.
Canada came under investigation in November after a 28-year-old woman reported that he had touched her inappropriately several times when she was a girl in the late 1990s. During the investigation it was learned that Canada had also been the subject of a similar complaint by another 11-year-old girl in 2000, but no charges were filed at the time. The case was recently re-investigated, and a witness to that incident came forward.

Sunday, December 28, 2014: Arrive at Villahermosa where, if traveling on the suggested group flight, you will be met upon arrival at the airport and transferred to our hotel. For those arriving independently, a taxi can be hired for the short drive into town. Overnight at the Hyatt Villahermosa. (Dinner included)
Monday, December 29: Visit La Venta Park to see a magnificent outdoor collection of stone sculpture that originally came from the Olmec site of La Venta. The Olmec were one of the earliest cultures developed in Mesoamerica, preceding the Maya by centuries. Their monumental stone carvings and mythological beings puzzle archaeologists to this day. After lunch, drive to Palenque, a World Heritage site and one of the great western capitals of classic Maya civilization that some have called "the Paris of the Maya." We will check into our charming hotel and have time for relaxation, exploring the surrounding lush forest, and swimming in the unusual pool. Overnight at Chan Kah Resort Village for two nights. (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Tuesday, December 30: Explore Palenque's many exquisite examples of 7th- and 8th-century Maya architecture, including the Temple of the Inscriptions, Palace, the Cross Temples, recently uncovered Temples XIX and XXI. We finish the morning walking a beautiful downhill jungle trail, across waterfalls and hidden ruins, to get a true sense of the rainforest and all its beauty. After lunch at an outdoor, palm thatch restaurant, visit the Palenque site museum, with many world famous pieces of Maya ceramics and stone carving. (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Wednesday, December 31: We cross the selva mountains and visit the gorgeous site of Tonina carved into the highland hillsides and then the colonial city of San Cristobal de las Casas –where dynamics between Latinos and Indios are still complicated--before ending our day at the Casa Mexicana in Tapachula, the pearl of the state of Socanusco. Happy New Year's Eve! Don't forget to ask Tom about that time he was in San Cristobal on Good Friday! (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Thursday, January 1, 2015: What a great day to spend visiting the highland Maya cities of Zinancatan and San Juan Chamula where we will see traditional people, their markets and churches. If you thought you understood the Catholic church, you may end up changing your mind! (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Friday, January 2: We spend our day visiting the traditional highland Chiapas communities of Chicuntik and Amatenango and end our day at the Hotel Lagos de Montebello at one of Mexico's greatest natural wonders. Montebello is a national park close to the border with Guatemala, comprising 59 multi-colored lakes in a pine forest and two Maya ruins. It was the first national park in Chiapas when created in 1959 and in 2009 the park was designated a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Saturday, January 3: We visit La Mesilla en route to Chichicastenango, famous for its markets and the Church of San Tomas, next to the market. The 400-year old church is built atop a Pre-Columbian temple platform, and the steps originally leading to a temple of the pre-Hispanic Maya civilization remain venerated. K'iche' Maya priests still use the church for their rituals, burning incense and candles. In special cases, they burn a chicken for the gods. Each of the 18 stairs that lead up to the church stands for one month of the Maya calendar year. We spend the night at the Hotel Museo Mayan Inn, a restored colonial building located next to Chichicastenango's Calvario Chapel. (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Sunday, January 4: We visit the famous Sunday market at Chichicastenango. Don't let Grace and Colleen buy ALL of the textiles! Then we are off to Lake Atitlan, which the great German explorer Alexander von Humboldt called "the most beautiful lake in the world." We spend the first of two nights at Hotel Atitlan in the shadow of volcanoes and a Guatemalan national park. (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Monday, January 5: We take a boat tour through the traditional Maya villages of Lake Atitlan and return to our lakeside Hotel Atitlan (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Tuesday, January 6: We leave Atitlan to the colonial city of Antigua in the central highlands of Guatemala, famous for its well-preserved Spanish Baroque influenced architecture as well as a number of spectacular ruins of colonial churches. It has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is the first of two nights at the Hotel Camino Real Antigua. (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)
Wednesday, January 7: We tour some of the historic and great coffee plantations in the area.....Tom is bringing and extra suitcase just for samples! After a stop at a jade

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I was able to choose a custom color that was in the same shade as my wedding invitations. The foil print in these really makes them pop, while still being casual. Thrilled with the final product!"
"Very elegant. Very high quality. Pearl finish envelopes with this card made it the total package. Everyone thought they were super expensive. We just absolutely loved them!!!"
"Love this shower invitation!! I am super picky and have a very romantic taste, so I did a lot of research before choosing an invite - this one is perfect! So cute & totally feminine! I added some lines in as well because I had more information to display than what was shown in the sample, and my biggest concern was that it would look too cluttered - not the case! The designer worked with me to create several proofs and let me compare the different ways she spaced it out - WPD designers are so accommodating and the invite came out absolutely perfect!!!"
"I was surprised how swiftly my proof was reviewed and the short amount of time which it took to arrive at my door! Wonderful service as well as product! Thank you!"
"Easy to personalize. Came quickly. Paper is good thick card stock. Color is as shown onscreen. Used Vintage Circus stamps to continue with the theme. Lots of fun!"

I just finished a major overhaul of my 18yo Clopay garage door, with new springs (extension), rollers, hinges, etc. I dissasembled, inspected, cleaned and lubed the necessary components of the Craftsman garage door opener as well. After installation, during the adjustment phase, a problem cropped up that I have not been able to determine the cause of. When the motor cover is on the door opener, the door will only open 4-6ft. When the cover is removed, the door opener operates perfectly, full travel both up and down. I have tried adjusting the force controls to the max settings, which has no effect. I have disconnected the door from the opener and checked the door travel top to bottom for binding and dragging, the door is perfectly balanced and travel is smooth. I removed the logic board and inspected the PCB for loose solder joints and fractures of the circuit paths, in case the board was flexing when the cover is installed. Also I inspected the limit switches to verify the motor cover was not impeding their travel and function. As soon as I remove the motor cover the door opener works perfectly. I don't even have to tighten the cover screws before the door opener stops functioning correctly. I suppose I could just leave the cover off, but it has worked fine for the past 18 yrs with the cover on. One thing I'd like to add here, is that when the door opener is first used after sitting overnight, it will open the door all the way one time, after that, it will only open the door roughly half way. If you double tap the wall switch, the door will continue from its half-mast position, to its fully open position. At all times the door will close normally.
Hopefully one of you garage door gurus will have seen this condition before and point out something obvious that I have overlooked.

I don't know how much this will help, because I'm not really a Skarner player... but I want to be, if that makes sense. I like him. He's a unique champion, and I like the idea he seems to represent. But I don't feel good playing him. I want him to feel like a scorpion. They are poisonous and tough-as- nails desert dwellers. Playing Skarner doesn't feel like that. At best, he feels like a tow truck. Idk.
So this is what I feel. When playing Skarner, his Q seems incredible, aoe damage on top of a slow, that's spammable, when playing against Skarner, I hate this ability because it means I never get away. His W? Feels alright. but I'd like to see it take more of a damage role, instead of increasing AS for the duration I think I think it should get a thornmail-like status, reflecting damage done to him while shielded back at the caster because its crystal armor after all. his E? Everyone says it sucks, I disagree, however I'd like to see 1 or 2 changes, 1, the animation delay is basically a self-stun when you use it, meaning you stop chasing to E, which can be terrible, please change this to an instant cast while moving? The heal shouldn't rely on him having to close a gap AND do damage to be honest. his R? Its the only skill that still behaves the way it does, Volibear, Singed, ect all counter flash with thier BASIC skills, why is Skarner punished on his ultimate?
I'm so excited
havent played him in a while, so I don't really know. I would assume he benefited similarly to udyr with the s3 item changes but without the stun he isnt really as great sticking to people without ulti.
His ult needs to not burn CD if someone flashes away.
Unless you build movement speed as a jungler it can be hard to gank effectively when your ult is down. His slow is pretty unreliable as well forcing you to build for that movement speed or get a frozen mallet.
The perma slow is the most important part but is considered to be the most anti fun against people. His E is totally useless, because it stuns your self making his lose grip on enemies. He has great itemization but they are mainly nerfed items. Stacking HP is less common since his shield gives him extra 500 EHP.

For this week's Throwback Thursday we're celebrating Bryan Ferry's 67th birthday with a set of Roxy Music songs.
I didn't really become familiar with any of Bryan Ferry's work, whether with Roxy Music or solo until I began working at WERS. Fortunately for me, we play a lot of it. Soon enough, I had listened to just about all of Roxy Music's decade-long output (1972-1982). Despite a relatively somewhat short heyday, there's something about the band's music that keeps it feeling fresh to this day. Featuring pioneer Brian Eno on their earliest records, Roxy Music now seems to have always been ahead of the curve during their first period of existence – the band, in some form, technically is active today. Their progressive sound remains fresh today because it still is unlike anything else. The music they made functioned not only on the level of being really, really catchy pop but also as sonic experimentation. Oh, and music that's easy to dance to never goes out of style.
Despite coming into prominence in the early 1970′s with Roxy Music, Ferry's solo career continues to this day. His solo work started almost as early as the band in 1973, making him one of the longest tenured artists who are currently producing music – he's kept up a streak of releasing an album every few years or so since the 70′s. Join us at 5pm today to celebrate this icon's birthday!

By EDDIE PELLS
AP National Writer
HOUSTON (AP)  Nobody will dispute that they are great coaches, and the latest evidence lies in the teams they guided to this year's Final Four.
Nobody will argue that John Calipari and Jim Calhoun are saints, either.
The men on the sidelines for the Kentucky-Connecticut Final Four matchup have had their share of trouble  with each other, the programs they run and the NCAA.
They are a microcosm of everything that's right and wrong in college basketball  a coach-driven game where good leaders can elevate programs and players to new levels but the road to success often produces its fair share of cringeworthy dealing.
Calipari leads the fourth-seeded Wildcats (29-8) against Calhoun and the third-seeded Huskies (30-9) in the second semifinal Saturday. Both coaches coaxed a turnaround out of their young, struggling teams to make unexpected trips to the game's biggest stage  the third for Calipari and fourth for Calhoun.
On the eve of the game, their histories were as lively a topic as the success of their teams. One of the first questions Calipari fielded Friday was whether he is the 2000's version of former UNLV coach Jerry Tarkanian, a coach who did a lot of winning in his day but did it with his phone number firmly entrenched on the NCAA's speed dial. The question slid off the Wildcats coach as smoothly as good Kentucky bourbon.
"I respect everything that Jerry did  his kids, how they played, all those things,†Calipari said. "But, no, I think I'm the 2011 John Calipari. I don't know what that means, and I hate to talk in the third party. But I am who I am.â€Â
Unlike Calhoun, Calipari has no qualms about how many of his players have had startlingly brief college careers and, indeed, views that as something of a feather in his cap. He recruits the best players, replaces them just as quickly  goodbye John Wall, hello Brandon Knight  and gets them to accept different, sometimes uncomfortable roles to come together as a team.
He is back in Houston, where three years ago he won two games at the regional to lead Memphis to the Final Four, only to leave that school a year later, just as the program was running into NCAA problems involving the recruitment of Derrick Rose.
Calipari's first Final Four visit, with Massachusetts back in 1996, also has been scrubbed by the NCAA. Which led to another tongue-in-cheek question: How does it feel to be coaching in your first Final Four?
"I don't deal with that,†said the 52-year-old coach, who spent four years in the NBA between his stints at UMass and Memphis. "We've been here three times. Those players played those games and did what they were supposed to. I'm so proud of what they've all accomplished.â€Â
He says this without apology. Though his schools suffered, Calipari was not found at fault in either of the NCAA probes.
The so-called problems between Cal and Cal began during those UMass days, when the coaches were on top of each other in neighboring states  one trying to protect his turf and the other trying to carve out his own. Things got testy during the recruitment of Marcus Camby, who wound up choosing UMass and whose issues there eventually landed the school on probation.
Both coaches acknowledged the relationship got off to a rough start.
"I mean, the northeast, you're so tight, you're right on top of each other, that it is a competitive environment,†Calipari said. "Our radio shows and television shows are in each other's states, in our cities. That's how it is there.â€Â
The 68-year-old Calhoun lightheartedly reprised the complaints he raised more than a decade ago about Calipari  a Pittsburgh native trying to muscle his way through New England  but made it clear the enmity has died down as the years have passed.
"From a generational standpoint, to the fact that John really was trying to claim New England,†Calhoun said of the lack of a true friendship with his counterpart.
Then, he affected his best Boston accent: "He could never say he pahked the caah in Hahvahd Yahd, he didn't know what clam chowder really was. I took (umbrage) to it, but I take (umbrage) to a lot of things.â€Â
As magical as this season has been  Kemba Walker's emergence as an NBA-bound star, the five-wins-in-five-nights title at the Big East tournament, then four more wins and the unexpected Final Four trip  it also has been a drain on Calhoun.
This season at UConn was played under the shadow of an NCAA investigation into the recruitment of a player named Nate Miles, who wound up getting expelled from school before ever playing a game.
The probe  ugly, but the first in Calhoun's 25 years at UConn  resulted in sanctions that include Calhoun's suspension for the first three games of next season. If, that is, the coach decides to return. He has had a slew of health problems over the past eight years and now enjoys spending time with his grandchildren as much as the players he coaches.
"I'm comfortable with my university, how they handled it, how the NCAA handled it,†Calhoun said. "I didn't say I agreed with everything. But I was in charge of the program, the program made mistakes, and I think everybody had their chance to speak over a two-year period. When it was adjudicated, it was adjudicated, and it's over as far as I'm concerned.â€Â
Meanwhile, the saga of Cal vs. Cal lingers on, albeit in a far less angry light now than 15 years ago.
Earlier in the week, Calhoun was referring to his three Final Four coaching counterparts and called them, "my three sons  my two sons plus my problem child,†in a reference to the classic 1960s TV show that starred Fred MacMurray.
Calipari picked up on that one Friday: "I did tell him that I knew Fred MacMurray,†he said, "and Mr. Calhoun, you are no Fred MacMurray.â€Â
