Sister Zsa Zsa Glamour, Guard The Opressed |
A giant glitter-ball hit the planet and Sister Roma emerged from the crater in 1987. Okay, I'm not from outer space, I'm from Michigan (which is even scarier). I moved to San Francisco immediately after graduating from college in 1985. Two years later I was hanging out with friends during happy hour at the Midnight Sun in the Castro. We all had jobs downtown and were standing around in our power-ties, watching videos when this character entered the bar. She looked liked a clown/nun/showgirl and for the first time that evening everyone stopped looking up at the video screens and look at her. The reaction was mixed, to say the least, but she greeted everyone with charm, grace, and a huge smile. Suddenly the queen came up to me and knew me by name - I was stunned! It turned out to be a good friend of mine named Norman who (unbeknownst to me) was also known as Sister Luscious Lashes with the Sisters Of Perpetual Indulgence. I had never heard of the Sisters until that very moment but I was intrigued. I befriended the group and discovered that they were social activists, fundraisers, trailblazers, shit-stirrers, and passionate, talented, amazing people. I started volunteering with them as a boy until one day Luscious suggested that I 'just try the makeup' and my life changed for ever. Sister Roma was born! |
Spiritual. I definitely believe that there is more than this. Life is just too miraculous - and more amazing than we can understand while we're busy living it. |

In December Roma also turns 50 years old, meaning that she has dedicated half of her life to serving the San Francisco LGBTQI community as an activist, fundraiser, public speaker, hostess/Master of Ceremonies, columnist, talk show host, and an arguable gay icon. Recognizing in herself a desire to create change and improve the quality of life for our community, Roma joined the Sisters in January of 1987. At the time, the San Francisco Order had dwindled to a mere six fully professed active members. Roma is credited with being a major force in the rejuvenation and future growth in the Order; which has grown to over 1,000 members strong in this worldwide non-profit organization. Since taking her vows, Roma has been on the front lines in the war against HIV and AIDS. At a time when people were getting sick and dying alone, Roma reached out and showed compassion and support for those afflicted with a virus that was still unidentified. Roma embraced members of our community who others were afraid to touch due to the ignorance surrounding infection. It has always been one of Roma's goals to educate people about HIV and safer sex practices. Roma has volunteered, hosted, and/or MC'd fundraisers for nearly every organization related to HIV education and practical care. All told, Sister Roma has directly or indirectly helped raise over $1 million for her community. Responding to a rise in hate crimes in the spring of 1989 Sister Roma spearheaded the Stop The Violence (STV) Campaign. Designed to raise awareness to the unsafe conditions in and around San Francisco, STV included a citywide distribution of window placards, safety guidelines, and whistles. This program continued on to include college campuses and cities outside of San Francisco. Although eventually put to rest, Roma and the Sisters reactivated the STV campaign after a series of violent hate crimes hit the Castro and Mission districts in 2010. The program continues today and includes the original safety placards, safety packets, regular free self-defense training and cooperation from the SFPD, CUAV and Castro Community Patrol. As an outspoken advocate for civil rights, Sister Roma has been often called upon to speak at rallies, marches, and major demonstrations. She also speaks at colleges and universities on topics ranging from HIV/AIDS, homophobia, and drag. Roma has organized, hosted, and/or attended the peaceful demonstrations including the annual AIDS candle light vigil, Prop 8, DADT Repeal, Freedom of Choice, and Occupy SF. One of San Francisco's most colorful (and sometimes off-color) Master of Ceremonies, Roma has graced the main stages of SF Pride, Folsom Street Fair, Castro Street Fair, Halloween in the Castro and Easter in Dolores Park just to name a few. Her reputation for being a gracious, and at times, bodacious hostess has spread to include regular annual engagements in Chicago, New Orleans, Los Angeles, and even LifeBall in Vienna. Roma's quick wit has also earned her guest spots on radio, television and her own online talk show, the Tim & Roma show, the Internet's #1 gay-themed live format talk show. Although she claims to be "off-the-rack" Roma has somehow become a fixture hosting adult industry red carpets annually at the GAYVN, Grabby and the Cybersocket Awards. As well as appearing as a regular commentator on local radio including KMEL, Energy 92.7, and 99.7 and even branching out to appear in MTV music videos, independent films, on stage in Ronnie Larsen's Sleeping With Straight Men, and even spotted on Kathy Griffin's My Life On The D List. Roma pens Drag It, one of the gay communities favorite bi-weekly op-ed columns appearing in Gloss Magazine. Roma uses her column to address issues ranging from local events and fundraisers to reality TV to her own personal experiences with substance abuse. With over 100,000 online downloads per issue, Roma claims that more people comment about her writing than any of her public appearances. She is grateful whenever she hears that she has helped someone through a difficult time or personal struggle. Below is a very partial list of the events, fundraisers and organizations Roma has supported over the last 25 years: PARTIAL LIST OF EVENTS ROMA HAS VOLUNTEERED FOR: · Folsom Street Fair - Master of Ceremonies (15 years) · AEF Christmas Eve Dinner - Master of Ceremonies (15 years) · Easter in Dolores Park– Master of Ceremonies (15 years) · SF Drag King Contest – Master of Ceremonies (10 years) · Tenderloin Tessie Holiday Dinners – Greeter/Server (7 years) · Imperial Court Investiture – Master of Ceremonies (7 years) · Mr. & Miss Gay SF Contest – MC/Judge (7 years) · San Francisco Pride - Master of Ceremonies (5 years) · Halloween In The Castro - Master of Ceremonies (5 years) · Castro Street Fair – Master of Ceremonies (5 years) · AIDS Emergency Fund County Fair – Master of Ceremonies · Black Coalition on AIDS Anniversary – Master of Ceremonies · Gay Day at Great America - Master of Ceremonies · SF Fetish Ball – Master of Ceremonies · Miss Gay California – Master of Ceremonies/Judge · "SF AIDS Foundation Battles Syphilis" on Public Access - Roundtable Moderator · "Magnetic Couples: When Opposites Attract" Forum on Serodiscordant Couples – Discussion Moderator · Mama's Media Whore – Mama's Family · Stonewall 40 Trans Heroes Honoree · Project Nunway - Judge PARTIAL LIST OF ORGANIZATIONS ROMA HAS VOLUNTEERED FOR: · Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence · Stop AIDS Project · San Francisco AIDS Foundation · AIDS Emergency Fund · Project Open Hand · Positive Resource Center (PRC) · Project Inform · Richmond Ermet AIDS Foundation · Asian & Pacific Islander Wellness Center (API) · AIDS Health Project (UCSF) · AIDS/HIV Nightline · Black Coalition on AIDS · Pets Are Wonderful Support (PAWS) · Folsom Events · Real Bad · Center For Sex & Culture · LYRIC · SF Pride |

Ok so I went to newbie to suggest it...
Saved data is the lifeblood of any RPG game. There are few games that don't need to start with a design for how the data will be saved.
Savefiles are quite handy -- but the first time you hit them it's a doozy. I had a whole game ground to a halt for that reason (might go back to it shortly).
I know the book will cover savefiles, but Tom would it be possible to get a tutorial for this?
I'd even be happy to provide one if it would help.

Bears: Lynch run won't happen vs. us
January, 13, 2011
Michael C. Wright | ESPNChicago.com
LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- The Chicago Bears expressed a not-against-us sentiment in discussing the possibility of Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch pulling off a repeat of his dazzling 67-yard run in the fourth quarter of his team's win over the New Orleans Saints in the wild-card round.
[+] Enlarge
AP Photo/Ted S. WarrenMarshawn Lynch's remarkable 67-yard touchdown run against the Saints on Saturday was aided my numerous missed tackles.
"Excuse me?" linebacker Lance Briggs said when the topic was first broached.
Asked what would happen if eight Bears missed tackles on a run -- similar to what transpired on the Lynch play -- linebacker Brian Urlacher took a more comical outlook, saying, "he'd probably score," before explaining how his team could prevent such a thing.
"The thing we do is we run to the football," Urlacher said. "If there's missed tackles, there are guys coming to hopefully tackle him if that does happen. It was a good run, but [there were] a lot of missed tackles on [Lynch's] play."
Indeed. At least eight Saints made contact with Lynch during the run.
"When I look at it, I [think], 'Man, I had a lot of help,'" Lynch said. "There were about four or five blue jerseys in front of me. Matt [Hasselbeck] and Sean [Locklear] were right there behind me. So it was like they built a wall, kind of like a little force field around me to make sure nobody took me down."
Bears defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli wasn't surprised. That doesn't mean the team's mentality on defense becomes any more intense than it's been all season against the Seahawks.
"[Lynch is] [a] downhill [back], he's physical," Marinelli said. "We know that. He's a good back, no question about it. We play good backs every week. But it comes down to us. We have to tackle well, pay our gaps, work as a team and swarm the ball."
Marinelli didn't even want to ponder what he'd tell the defense if it missed as many tackles on one play as the Saints did last week on Lynch's run.
"Let's get the first one," he said.

Tonight's main event of UFC 145 matched up former teammates in Jon "Bones" Jones (16-1) and Rashad Evans (17-2) in a fight for the UFC light heavyweight championship. Jones, the reigning champion, successfully defended his title with a unanimous decision win over five rounds of action in Atlanta. The judges' scorecards were 50-45, 49-46 and 49-46. What We'll Remember from This Fight It's not surprising to see a fight go the distance, but for Jon Jones, who has finished his last four opponents, it was good to see him get taken the distance even if he was in control for the majority, if not all, of the fight.

Early college summit discusses value of special cirriculum for students
Discussing values of early college designs, workforce readiness, and work-based experiences
LAFAYETTE, LA (KADN) — A four year running program for early college academy is having a two-day summit at the Picard Center. This is a very successful program which takes students from 8th grade and preps them with a special cirriculum until their senior year, making the students better prepared for college courses and ready to take on a four year university.
"This is important because today we're exploring other things we can do. Just now our college has about 250 students that actually come to our campus but we have all different parishes around it. Our college has eight different parishes it serves, and we're looking at ways to reach out and see how we can expand this initiative so we can take in students within all our parishes to do something similar," says Dr. Micheal F. Glisson, Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs at SLCC.
This venture has been very successful in Lafayette Parish, so they are now looking to expand in Lafayette as well as surrounding parishes to better prepare our students about college and the workforce after college.

'We need to come clean': e-mails could further damage Toyota
Internal e-mails at Toyota suggest a reluctance to address sudden acceleration. The documents come to light at a time when Toyota is trying to rebuild its image.
If Toyota didn't already have enough safety-related challenges, now there's more – internal e-mails that paint the company as reluctant to address the problem of so-called sudden acceleration in its cars.
The e-mails could deal another damaging blow to the firm's once-stellar reputation and raise questions about whether the carmaker is moving decisively enough to put the crisis behind it.
In one Jan. 16 e-mail, Irv Miller, then Toyota's vice president for public affairs, said: "We are not protecting our customers by keeping this quiet. The time to hide on this one is over. We need to come clean."
Five days later, the company issued a recall to fix gas-pedal problems on 2.3 million US cars. The e-mail by Mr. Miller, and other documents obtained by news organizations this week, bolster the view that some officials within the company wanted to delay disclosure or downplay the accelerator problems.
Millions of cars recalled
By January, the relatively high number of Toyota drivers filing complaints about unintended acceleration had become a big issue for the company. Toyota had already recalled several million cars to address the risk that floor mats could trap accelerators in an open position.

I stood shaking, the envelope quivering in my hand. Inside were a DVD and a note. I knew what was in both. The DVD contained a sexual video I made for fun a few years back -- it had to be.
I slid it into my computer and it booted up. I closed my eyes slowly. There I stood in front of a camera on a tripod. I was at my peak here, 21 years old, 5'9, my body athletically muscular from frequent visits to the gym. And I stood in a parking lot. My clothes came off until I was completely naked. The next twenty minutes followed me running around in public naked, jacking off as people passed by unknowing. It ended with me cumming on myself, the cum dripping from my stomach. I was a secret exhibitionist and made this film for myself, but lost my camera soon after before I had a chance to transfer and delete it from the camera. That's what I get for being lazy. I opened the note next. It read;
"In order to stop this video from going to any future employers and family and friends, you will submit to my demands. But first, a package is here. Go get it naked, then come back and finish reading".
My heart was pounding. I went to the door and looked outside to my front yard. Sure enough, a box sat by the fence. Nothing else stirred. Was I really going to do this?
My hands were already moving, shirt coming off over my head. My pants hit the ground and I stepped out. With a deep breath, the underwear followed. My feet clenched on the hard wood floor.
It was 30 feet. I could do this. I never questioned anything else.
Easing the door open I stepped out into the cold morning. Staying low I walked to the box and picked it up. A car engine suddenly sounded around the corner. I dove behind a bush as the car passed by, the sound fading into the distance. Sweat glistened on my forehead.
"Hey Aaron," A deep voice said. "Lose something?"
I looked over to see my neighbor Harry standing on his deck, eyes leering at me. Harry was disgusting, 200 pounds of fat. He had been creepy since I moved in, standing in his window watching me and always making rude comments in passing. He was the last person I wanted to see me now, of all times. But it had happened and I just needed to get back inside.
"Hi Harry, it's just a dare. Sorry!" Covering my privates I raced back to my door.
"I would tear that ass up, Aaron. Tear it up." His eyes followed me the whole way back to the door.
"Well you never will big guy!" I yelled as I ran inside. Throwing the big box on the table I came to a stop. My computer was open on the table, an email notification on the screen. An email from someone named Master.
I opened it with trepidation.
"Good. I knew you would listen easily, you're not stupid. You are now my slave. You will collect 5 tokens and I will release you, and promise to never show your video to anyone. That is my deal. The first token is in the public library, handicap stall. Open the first box. Have the contents on when you're in the stall. Nothing else. You have twenty minutes. Your Master".
I opened the box quickly. Inside was a blindfold and hand cuffs -- with no key. I had fifteen minutes left to get there. I had no time to think, I just left. I drove to the public library. My eyes were glued to the ground as I made a straight line to the bathroom and went to the very back where the handicap stall was. I went inside. No one else was in the bathroom.
My watch said I had two minutes left. I threw off my clothes, folding them quickly next to the toilet. The blindfold went around my eyes, plunging the world into darkness. I fumbled with the handcuffs, clicking the first one easily, the second one trickier behind my back. It clicked and I sealed my fate. My arms were tight, unable to move. I knelt on the cold ground waiting.
Time seemed to crawl by. Second thoughts crowded in my head. What was I doing? Naked in a public bathroom stall?
Then the door swung open. Heavy footsteps came down to my stall. Panic filled me. What if this was just a random person and they didn't see my feet and just came in? How would they react? Maybe they would stop before my stall -- but already the door was opened. It was quietly closed again.
My ass stung as the hand struck again and again. I whimpered and fell forward. Strong hands pulled me back up. The spanking continued, every hit stinging more and more. Finally it stopped and I was left gasping. I thought for sure the noise would bring someone. But no one came. It was just me and this unknown person.
I heard fumbling and then a belt struck my ass. I moaned in pain. A deep chuckle followed with pants hitting the floor. My mouth was forced open and boxers were stuffed in. I nearly choked on the smell of sweat. My body was pushed forward so my chest was on the soliet seat, my head just above the stinking water. Cold liquid fell along my ass, dripping down the crack. Lube.
No, no no no no no.
I had never put anything in my ass. That was about to change. Something big pushed against my tight asshole and forced it's way deep inside me. I tried to arch my back, but strong hands kept me down. My ass felt stretched and full. The big man grunted, thrusting in and out. It felt like it went on forever. His cock came out with a wet POP.
The gag was removed. I was turned around and the cock was shoved into my mouth. He shoved it to the back of my throat, hair filling my nose. I wanted to gag. The door opened again and the man kept going. Footsteps neared the stall.
"Hello? Is everything ok?" The big man pushed his cock as far into my mouth as he could. I choked, tears sliding out from the blindfold.
"I could use your help". He said in a gruff voice. The door swung open and I heard a gasp.
"You're doing this in a public library?" The man must have nodded. I struggled to pull my mouth from the cock but he held me fast. "That's hot". I heard the door close again and moaned around the cock.
Pants hit the ground again and a new cock teases the entrance to my ass again. This one is thinner and longer. He fumbles for a moment, then it slides into my ass. The cock in my mouth goes faster and faster. I was being roasted. I heard a clicking noise but couldn't focus on it as the cock in my ass suddenly spruts warm liquid, the new man gasping, falling over my back. His scent covered me. The cock in my mouth moved quicker and the man moaned, cum spraying into my mouth. The cock finally withdrew. I choked but he held my mouth shut until the salty mixture slid down my throat. I laid on the ground, unmoving and exhausted.
"Thank you" the newcomer said and I heard him pull on his pants and leave. The first man got dressed as well. He removed one hand cuff -- finally, freedom -- and then closed it around the handicap bar. NO!
"I told you I would get that ass" I froze. I knew that voice. The blindfold was removed and the world was blinding for a moment. Then my worst fear was realized. Harry stood in front of me. His belly jiggled as he laughed. "I was told by your master to give you this." He holds up a small package. "Your ass was amazing. He held up his phone again and snapped another picture. That explained the clicking. There I was, hand cuffed in a public restroom, cum driping down my chin, with the most disgusting man taking pictures of me.
"That'll teach you to be nicer to your neighbors. I was happy to oblige when your master contacted me. See you at home"
He held up the key to the hand cuffs, setting it on the ground by the door. Then he turned and left. The door closed and everything was quiet. I reached for the key with my foot, but it was too far away.
I tried for what felt like an hour as people came in and out. Finally I got the courage to ask the next person. They went to the urinal and I heard their stream come to an end.
"Excuse me?" I said meekly. No answer. "Can you help me?" Their feet came over to the door.
"You need toilet paper or something?"
"No no, there's a key by the door." I said.
"I see it"
"Can you kick it towards the toilet?"
"Why do you need a ke-" He tried the door and it opened. The man was a nice looking individual, greying hair set over a strong face. He stood there, holding the door open, not entering the stall.
"What's your name?" He asked.
"Aaron" I said. He waited. "Aaron Hemsworth.
"Aaron Hemsworth? Do you have an interview at DCM tomorrow?" My heart froze. DCM was my dream job and after two years I had finally gotten an interview. I nodded meekly. The stranger smiled. "I'm the manager there. Let's consider this a pre-interview..."
The door slowly closed and locked.

Court quashes Britain's anti-terrorism orders
By Peter Graff
LONDON (Reuters) – Britain's High Court ruled on Wednesday
that "control orders" confining six terrorism suspects to
partial house arrest breached their human rights, throwing out
a key plank of Prime Minister Tony Blair's security policy.
Under the orders, terrorism suspects who have not been
charged with a crime have been electronically tagged, confined
to their houses for most of the day and banned from using
computers and phones or meeting people without permission.
"The six control orders are incompatible with the
respondents' right to liberty under article 5 of the European
Convention on Human Rights," said Justice Jeremy Sullivan.
"It follows that the Secretary of State had no power to
make the orders and they must therefore all be quashed."
Blair rushed the new powers through parliament last year
after courts rejected post-September 11, 2001 emergency
measures that had allowed police to confine foreign suspected
terrorists to high security prison indefinitely without trial.
The control orders apply to British citizens as well as
foreign nationals and do not allow them to be jailed, but
provide for a host of severe restrictions amounting to
effective house arrest.
The new measures caused an uproar in parliament, where they
triggered debate over the degree to which ancient and
fundamental rights should be suspended to combat terrorism.
Blair has repeatedly criticized judges for placing too much
emphasis on the rights of suspects and says the system needs to
be rebalanced in favor of protecting the public.
The judge said government lawyers are to appeal the case at
a hearing now scheduled for Monday. The six men, who have not
been named, will remain subject to the restrictions until the
appeal is heard.
Under the European Convention, a country may not deprive
people of their liberty without trial unless the country first
declares an emergency and "derogates" from the convention,
ordering the suspension of basic rights.
Blair's 2005 law would allow the government to derogate
from the convention in an emergency, but the government has not
declared one, arguing that its partial house arrest powers do
not amount to depriving suspects of their liberty.
Lawyer Natalia Garcia, who represents two of the six
suspects, said the judge's ruling showed that the government
had attempted "derogation by sleight of hand."
"What they have done is to impose conditions of such
draconian severity as to be a deprivation of liberty."
"It is heartening that courts will still act as a check
against the government when it seeks to ride roughshod over
basic human rights and civil liberties," she said.
Britain's Home Office, which oversees the system, said it
was preparing a public statement in response to the ruling.

Locker room Q&A, 12/23
Here's a partial series of Q&A's that some Patriot players had in the locker room after today's game:
Rodney Harrison, Safety
(On breaking records as a team)
It's just records. It's just something we can talk about when we are older and retired. It has no bearing on what we have to do for preparation for next week and we need to just stay focused.
(On what satisfied him the most in this win)
The guys coming out and playing with emotion and understanding how we needed to play the Dolphins because they are a very dangerous team. Going out there and making plays, goal line stands, red zone stands, were all big for us.
(On the improved Patriot red zone defense)
Just doing our own jobs and executing and not worrying about anyone else. We just need to make sure we communicate and make plays because that's what it comes down too.
(On if next week's potential 16th win means any more than the others)
I just want to win a ball game. The media has made a big fuss about it but its business as usual for us. We are going to have a day or two off and then come back here on Wednesday and focus on the Giants and try to win the ball game.
Laurence Maroney, Running Back
(On David Ortiz wearing his jersey)
David is my friend and I noticed it when he first walked in and I gave him a look and he smiled back at me. When I go to a Red Sox game I will definitely be wearing one of his jerseys.
(On his 50+ yard runs)
I can't take credit for those plays because the O-line and Heath Evans did such a good job blocking that anyone could have run through that. All I had to do is show some speed and make sure not to get caught. I didn't have to make to many moves or run through anyone because it was that open so all I had to do was run to the end zone.
(On Randy Moss's downfield blocking)
He was doing an excellent job blocking for me and the defensive back kept backing up so as long as Randy Moss keeps chasing him I'm just going to run behind him. I was hoping he would stay inside so I could go outside and outrun him but he kept turning when I turned which gave the defense time to come up and pursuit.
(On if he knew he was that open downfield)
I didn't know until I looked up at the jumbotron and realized no one was around me. I then slowed down to save my legs a little bit because this could have been a long game.
(On gaining experience in his second season)
I feel a lot better, having a whole year on me to know what to expect, how to manage my body, how to take care of my body. Coming in last year, I had to deal with a college bowl game, the combine training, the actual combine, then the actual pro day, then your draft, then you've got your mini camps then you've got your training camp, so it was a long process. I can definitely say my body feels a lot better than it was last year
Wes Welker, Wide Receiver
(On whether he thought the Patriots had a "sloppy" second half)
Yeah, all of a sudden we didn't play better in the second half. We need to be a second half-type team and make sure we're putting things together. But [the Dolphins] did a great job out there. You have to give Miami credit. Luckily, we had a good first half and we were able to hold onto the lead.
(On if hitting the century mark in receptions on the season was significant for him)
I think it's something I can look back at, but right now it's not a big deal. I'm focused on the next game and ready to go to New York.
(On if it's indicative of the success the Patriots have had this season that all the criticism is about one bad half)
Yeah. That's the way it is, though. We realize that half isn't the type of half we want to play. Anyways, that's the way it goes.
(On what kind of significance going 16-0 has)
None. It's the next game and that's the way we're going to treat it. That's the way we're going to go about it.
(On what he does when people ask him about going undefeated)
I think people know better than to ask me about it. Except you all.
(On if he would like to get Tom Brady the single-season passing touchdown record)
I think it would be something we could look back at. I know it's nothing that Tom worries about and nothing that we worry about. We're just out there trying to execute and run our plays and if it happens along the way than great.
(On how important it is to be playing good football going into the playoffs)
There are still opportunities to get better, through practice and through these games. So we need to continue to get better and to grow as a team and make sure we're ready to go into the playoffs.
Kevin Faulk, Running Back
(On if things slowed down offensively for a reason)
I'm not sure what the reason was, but we're going to hear about it. There were mistakes we made as an offense and we're going to hear about them from coach. That's just what he does as a coach. He doesn't ignore our mistakes. He doesn't let them pass by.
(On how much he wants to help Tom Brady set the single-season, passing touchdowns record)
Of course we want to see him get it, but – he knows just like we know – if he focuses on the team all the other stuff will take care of itself.
(On if Miami did anything differently defensively in the second half)
Not really. They did the little things and they play hard. At the same time, we made a lot of mistakes and we didn't move the ball.
(On if Bill Belichick reminding the team of its mistakes comes with the territory)
Knowing Coach Belichick, that's what you come to expect. There's something teaching going on, some coaching going on. That's just how the organization and the coaching staff is set up. No matter how many wins we get, we're still going to get our coaching.
Jarvis Green, Defensive End
(On if the team thinks about going undefeated)
Yeah, we think about it here and there, but we know we have to concentrate and get better. There are still things we have to work on. We know it's going to get harder in these last games. I know we have to prepare for the Giants and stay under control.
Junior Seau, Linebacker
(On how important it was for the defense to set the tone with some hard hits early in the game)
It was nice to start off early. Coming out there, trying to execute everything that we tried to do, we started off good. We tapered off a little at the end. There are some things we need to work on. Trying to finish. Being able to finish. I'm sure there's more out there than meets the eye, but we'll look at that another day.
(On the play of Mike Vrabel Sunday)
Mike has been doing that all year. He's obviously a Pro Bowler. He comes to work every day during the week and prepares himself like no other. We're happy to have him on our team.
(On Vrabel forcing Cleo Lemon out-of-bounds shy of the end zone)
He took a flat angle. As old as we get, angles are key in this game. He went in there, took a great angle at it, and he got him out for us.
(On the hits by Rodney Harrison and James Sanders early on and if they inspired the defense)
Well, you have to throw our little rookie in there. [Brandon] Meriweather had a good one there, too. Our safeties came up and really set the tone in terms of the hits that they placed and did a great job of really controlling that middle.
(On if there was any sentiment that there was something missing in the Patriots' performance in the second half)
When you look at it, it was 28-0 in the first half. When you get back in the second half, you have to finish it. I know we're saying that to each other, that we can do a better job of finishing. It's going to be something that we're obviously going to tell each other and try to learn from. It's definitely a point of emphasis.
(On if the team is ready for a week of "16-0" questions)
We're going to enjoy this. It was something that was a gift to each other, being one of the first [teams] to be 15-0 at this point of the season. It was something that was very important to us. So we're going to go on from there.
Tedy Bruschi, Linebacker
(On breaking NFL records )
Records come along, individual recognition comes along, team recognition comes along. We've done that consistently this year and when you can win consistently like we have it's going to happen. We aren't shooting for anything. We've got to just focus on who we have in front of us. We're not going to worry about what records we're going to break because that's how you have success.
(On the defense appreciating the offense's improved running game)
In terms of being a member of the defense and the hard-nosed type of guys we are, we appreciate good running. We know it's the ultimate sort of insult when someone can run it down your throat. That's happened to us this year – so to see our offense do it – we recognize what they're doing in there. A lot has to happen. Those offensive linemen have to open up holes and our running backs have to hit those. [Laurence] Maroney had two big runs and that's just as enjoyable if not more enjoyable than a Randy Moss bomb.
(On the improved red zone defense)
We've just been emphasizing it every week, talking about how we were at the bottom of the league in some statistical categories. There are a lot of prideful guys in this locker room and when you tell us we're doing terrible at something, we want to fix it.
Adalius Thomas, Linebacker
(On the red zone defense)
It's big. That wins games for you. Definitely I think over the past couple of weeks stepping up big in the red zone has helped us. It's a momentum shifter, especially when you go for it on fourth down, you go down there deep and don't get any points, that's a big momentum shift for our offense and our team.
(On striving to go 16-0)
It doesn't matter. This game doesn't change anything, the ramifications of it don't change anything. You just have to focus on your job, that's how you really have to look at it. The goal is to go out and perform week in and week out. Of course you don't want to lose at this point and that's the ultimate goal, so you just want to go out there and prepare week-to-week. The goal is to go out there and beat the Giants and move from that point on.
(On big hits by Rodney Harrison and James Sanders)
It sends a message that it's going to be a physical day. They were sweet. They left a bitter taste in your mouth. It makes guys go over the middle and when they go to look for the ball maybe make them take a double take. I think it just shows you the physicality of the secondary, that guys went out and hit people.
Jabar Gaffney, Wide receiver
(On the touchdown pass that Schulters tried to intercept.)
I really don't know. I know that I saw him coming and I tried to shield away from him a little bit and Tom [Brady] made a great throw and the ball got there before he did and I was able to grab it and keep going.
(On how much concentration did it take to keep the defender out of your eyesight to make the catch)
We work on that all the time in practice, we have to make that catch. If Tom [Brady] makes it and gets the ball to us we have to pull it down no matter who's around us. My hat's off to our receivers coach [Nick Caserio] for putting us through a lot of hand and eye coordination drills and distraction drills.
(On Tom Brady potentially setting the touchdown pass record)
Yes, we definitely want to get it for him, we will go out there next week and fight hard and hopefully it will happen.
Asante Samuel, Cornerback
(On the defense)
We are not worried about that. Whatever the media wants to talk about is what they will talk about. We just want to win and go out and play hard defense like we always do and make plays and it's a team effort. The offense scores and they do a lot of good things over there and we try to do our job on the defensive side.
Ellis Hobbs III, Cornerback
(On the possibility of going 16-0)
It'll be just like the other wins. You have to take it in stride and understand and then continue to move because 16-0 is great, but that wasn't our goal starting this year off. Getting to the final game and winning – that's our goal. But how do we get there? Step by step, enjoy the victories and then move on.
(On whether he was disappointed by the team's second-half performance)
It's just something that… I don't know what comes over us. We had some great red zone stops. We gave up the one touchdown, but you can't be disappointed. It was 28-7. My hats off to the Dolphins, they played a hard game.
Troy Brown, Wide Receiver
(On how emotional the game was for him)
It's up there with the others. Actually, it's a great gift being around so long and having the chance to come back here and be a part of win and actually be able to contribute in a good way. It was definitely pleasing. It was definitely a great feeling, just the roar I got from the crowd the first time I went out there.
(On the ovation he received from the crowd)
It was great. It was special. I've been here my whole career and get a welcome back like that in your home stadium was a pretty touching moment for me and I appreciate it.
(On whether the second half was disappointing for the offense)
Obviously, you want to score some points. We didn't do that. We turned the ball over a few times in the second half and that's not the way you want to finish the game. But the first half was great, got out to a big score and put some points on the board real fast. Obviously, you want to finish the game better than we did. We didn't put up any points at all in the second half so that was a little bit disappointing, but in the end we did get the win.
(On whether he would have the opportunity to play)
I don't know about that. I don't have any control over that. I just go out there and put my best effort out there every day and leave the rest up to the coaching staff to decide who's going to play. I'm always getting ready because my team deserves that I'm ready if they need me to go out there and play so I need to be ready to go.
(On his final punt return of the game)
I wish I would have taken it to the house, but you can't be greedy and I can live with that. You have to enjoy the good times; you can be down about the bad times, but don't be too much of either. You can't spend too much time feeling sorry for yourself. You've got to get back out there and do it again. That's what you've got to do in this league and that's kind of what I did today. Dust myself off and get the rest of them. Like I said, I had the home crowd behind me.
Tom Brady postgame Q&A, 12/23
Here's the full transcript of the Q&A session Tom Brady had with the media after today's game:
Q: Tom how do you feel coming out of that second half? Are you happy with the win or are you frustrated with the way things went the last 30 minutes?
TB: It's great to be 15-0. I thought it was a great first half and I thought we played really well. In the second half we just didn't execute very well, certainly not the way we wanted to but, fortunately, we played well enough in the first half to create a big enough lead to – where the defense I thought played great. We just didn't help them out much in the second half. There'll be – we'll try to make the corrections but everyone is happy to be 15-0.
Q: Were those deep balls to [Randy] Moss in double and sometimes triple coverage, were those just 'well this is the only thing left that I can do on this play' or were they designed in any way?
TB: Part of the plan was to try to get him up running through the middle of the field. He's pretty dangerous when he does it. We'll just have to see the film, maybe there were other guys but sometimes you see him run there and just want to lay it up there for him.
Q: Winning is the most important thing. How do you feel about every time you touched the ball today you were closing in or setting some kind of record?
TB: I think it's exciting for the team. A lot of those team records are really fun, the most points scored and touchdowns and so forth, those are pretty cool records considering the history of the NFL and the incredible teams that have played – the incredible offensive football teams and to think that we've been up there with the best of them is exciting. Hopefully, we can continue to play well next week and going forward but, you're right, winning is most important and I think that's really what everyone's concerned with. There's a lot of happy people in the locker room.
Q: Tom, I know you like to throw it but how did you think [Laurence] Maroney did today?
TB: It was great. It was great. I thought it was one of the best games he's played. He had some great runs there was some great blocking by Heath [Evans] on both those runs. Heath had some great blocks. Receivers blocked downfield. That's always critical on those long runs, so I thought Laurence played great. It's exciting to see for him. Sometimes people forget about him but we certainly don't. He obviously [has] big play capability that he showed today.
Q: How tough is it out there without the tight ends in this offense? Going with three and four wide, what does it do for you?
TB: You lose some opportunities and you'd love to have the tight ends that we've had because they're great players for us and they're very productive. Going against a team like this who rushes the passer well, sometimes it's good to have the tight ends but that's not the case. They're getting healthy and it'll be nice to get them at full strength when we get them.
Q: How close was the touchdown to [Jabar] Gaffney to being interception in your view. It looked like [Lance] Schulters had a bead on it?
TB: Very close. I threw it about as hard as I could. I'm glad I threw the fastball on that one and it was great play by [Jabar].
Q: There were a couple of times where you threw a couple of deep ones to Randy [Moss] when he was, I guess triple covered. What were you thinking on those plays?
TB: We talked all week about trying to get up on those safeties and trying to give Randy an opportunity down the middle. Those guys were pretty deep and you try to lay it up there to give him an opportunity to make the play. It works out pretty well when he catches them; when he doesn't, it doesn't look so good. [We] just try to make them defend the deep part of the field and open up things underneath. I think about the second half and we just didn't execute really the way I thought we were capable but they know Randy's going deep and hopefully they continue to defend it, [that] will open up things for everybody else.
Q: Team records are obviously most important but how much would you like to see Randy [Moss] get that Jerry Rice – what's he need two more – would that be another milestone in this season?
TB: Like I said when you look back at the end of your career and you'll be excited about individual records and Randy, everyone knows he's a great player, whether he gets the record or not, he's a great player. He's had an incredible season for us and it's obvious they pay a lot of attention to him when he's out there on the field, as they should, and you have to find ways to keep him involved. He ran a great route on his first touchdown. [His] second touchdown was a great catch and yeah whenever he's open he usually gets it. Even when he's not open sometimes I throw it up there.
Q: When you're that close to a record, whether it's you or Randy [Moss] or the team you only get so many shots at it so I would think it would be tempting next week to try to grab it. Because you played so much baseball as a kid you can't go up trying to hit homeruns. How will you – do you consciously have to discipline yourself or are you just going to play like you always play?
TB: I think you always try to play very disciplined and you try to do what – as a quarterback you try to play however the defense is playing you. [You] try to find the weakness of the coverage and find the open guy. I know the receivers are working hard to get open and I just have to find them. They made it tough during the second half. They were rushing well, they've got some good, very productive pass rushers on that team and we missed the opportunities that we had. We have to figure out what the problem was and try to correct it.
Q: You went big at the 1-yard-line. How much of that was a fake so you could get Randy in a quick one-on-one and get the score and how much of that was 'hey were going to get this; let's throw it instead of run it'? In theory you could have run it.
TB: I think that's – [when] they leave him one-on-one down there he's usually pretty good at getting open on that so sometimes that's the best opportunity to score rather than give it to Laurence and try to let 10 guys stop him. Or [Kyle] Eckel, whoever was in there on that play. You try to pick your best match-up and Randy was a great match-up on that play.
Q: Is it hard to appreciate 15-0 because there is still so much left to play for?
TB: It just feels like every week kind of rolls into the next. It's such a long season and I know when we started this season you're always looking at the schedule going, "Yup, this one looks – we can win this one" and I guess every time I do that we end up 16-0. We have an opportunity this week to play the Giants and hopefully get to 16-0. I think that would be a great accomplishment for this team. Coach has kept pressure on us all week, this past week, really all season he's coached us very [hard] and we've responded and we need to continue to respond.
Q: What did it mean to have Troy Brown out there and was there any temptation on your part to look for him on those few offensive plays when he was in to try to get him a catch?
TB: Troy is very elusive, like Wes [Welker], underneath and he wasn't in there a whole lot but yeah, I'm always looking for Troy. He had some great punt returns. I know he's bummed out about the one that bounced off his facemask, but he's a competitor and he came back and had two great returns after that. It shows his mental toughness and his resiliency and I know there's a lot of excitement for him. He told me he was nervous on Wednesday night, he couldn't sleep, because he was so excited [that] he saw his name on the call sheet and he was going to be involved, so he was really excited.
Q: Was it exciting for you guys to see him out there?
TB: Oh yes, of course. No one works harder then Troy [Brown] and since I've been here he's been the leader of the offense. He's a great example to all the players of what it takes to be successful over the course of a long career and we're lucky to have him on the team. Every time he's out there I'm excited for him and I know he loves to play football and he's everything we're about so it was great to see him.
Q: I met a fan today, Patriots fan, who said he would give up his fiancé if he could see a perfect season, who or what would you give…
TB: Is that right? (Laughs) Wow. Poor girl. Pretty disposable I guess, man. What would I give up? It'd be a hell of an accomplishment, I'd say that. I have to think long and hard about that one, I don't want to offend anybody, especially not anyone that's close to me. I don't think I'd give up a family or friend or anything like that.
Q: Tom do you have any Christmas plans?
TB: Any Christmas plans? Yeah to celebrate like everybody else, it's a helluva holiday.
Q: Family and friends?
TB: Yeah family and friends (laughs). Bye guys, Merry Christmas.
Bill Belichick postgame Q&A, 12/23
Here's the full Q&A session Bill Belichick had with the media after today's game:
BB: That was a good win for us out there today. I thought we played real well in the first half [and] did a lot of good things. Miami played us tough all the way through, though. We made a couple plays there early in the game but they were tight and I thought they did a good job in the second half, especially defensively. It was good to win. We had a lot of people contribute. It would be hard to single anybody out. We had certainly a lot of production offensively, our defense came up with a couple big stops in the red area and [we had] a solid day on special teams. [I'm] happy to win. It's good to win the division, sweep the division, and we're getting ready to move on to New York next week. [It's a] short week, [with the] holiday and all that, so we have a lot in front of us. We'll have to pack a lot in in just a short amount of time this week, but hopefully we can do that.
Q: Can you talk about Laurence Maroney today, both his two long runs and overall?
BB: He's done a good job for us all year and it's nice – It's always nice to see a back break through the line of scrimmage clean, especially a guy like Laurence. He's got great speed. [He can] get out there and he can turn a short run into a long run in a hurry. Similar kind of to the short-yardage play we had against Jacksonville last year, where he split the line of scrimmage. Not a lot of guys can run him down. It was a nice play, well blocked. It's good.
Q: Was it nice to see Troy Brown back?
BB: Of course. Yeah. Troy gave us – He played a few plays on offense and then a little bit in the kicking game, returning. It's always good to have Troy back.
Q: In the second half, were you trying to force some plays to maybe get records for Tom Brady or Randy Moss?
BB: Trying to run our offense. That's all we did. We didn't really have much of a tight end offense. We eliminated that going into the game, and so we went with what we had. That's really all we did the whole game, other than a few short-yardage plays, but the rest of it was some type of mainly four receivers, a little bit of three receivers, but that was it. That's all we had. We planned to go into the game with that, and that's what we did.
Q: Could you talk about the historical significance of 15-0?
BB: It's good to win and we're not really too hung up on that. We're just – We'll get ready for next week. We'll take one week at a time and get ready for next week. I'm sure that's what you were looking for.
Q: Were you concerned about the turnovers in the second half?
BB: We never want to turn the ball over. Believe me, we don't call plays and say, "Well, we might turn this over." That's – We don't want to do that. Yeah, taking care of the ball… What did we have, three today? That's three more than our goal is every week. It's not to turn the ball over at all and so, unfortunately, we had a couple. [We] want to try to eliminate all of those.
Q: You talked about Maroney getting through the line clean. Was that also a function of being able to read his blocks and reading where the holes are so he can get through?
BB: Sure, yeah. It's a combination of good blocking and good running, yeah. Having some patience in there. Sometimes it's hard to see how those interior line blocks go from the sideline. I couldn't tell you exactly how, but the short-yardage, obviously we split that one. And we had a couple good runs on — as we had to spread our offense out a little bit, we were able to hit a couple of creases in there and get Laurence through the line. I mean, that's great. [It] gives us good balance offensively.
Q: How do you plan on spending Christmas?
BB: With my family. I hope we can all do that as a team.
Q: I assume your approach will be the same with the people you play in the final game?
BB: We'll do what's best for our football team, same as always.
Q: How do you feel about the idea of playing next week and being 16-0?
BB: We treat every week the same. [I'll] try to do what's best for the football team next week, same as we always do. It's nothing different. Whatever it is, that's what it's going to be.
Q: What's best for the football team – trying to win next week or looking at the big picture?
BB: Whatever is best for the football team, that's what we'll do. If it's to run it, if it's to pass it, if it's to blitz, if it's to line up in an unbalanced line, if it's to put – Whatever.
Q: Will the Giants dictate what you do, as far as resting players?
BB: We're concerned about our football team. I'm not worried about anybody else. There's no other team that concerns me. I'm worried about what our football team does. That's the only one I coach.
Q: Did you sense there was any lack of focus in the second half or was it strictly the Dolphins making adjustments?
BB: No, I thought it was a competitive game all the way through. I really did. As I said, a couple of the plays that we hit were close plays. We hit a long run there, but the Dolphins did a good job. We've seen them all through the year. They've played a lot of close games, played well last week, have been in a lot of tight games. I mean, they've lost some tough games. They're a good football team. They've lost some tough games and I thought they played us well, just like they did in the second half down there.
Q: You didn't feel once you got up 28-0 that your guys let up a little bit, unwittingly?
BB: No, I don't think so. No. I mean, I don't think we – offensively, especially – that we executed as well as we could have, but you know, I give the Dolphins credit for that, too. They've got good players and they made some plays.
Q: You always talk about taking one game at a time. Are you saying there's no special significance that the next game could put you on a historical —
BB: Well, we look at each week as its own week, so I'm not going to worry about what happened last week or two weeks ago or five weeks ago. It doesn't make any difference. Right now all we're concerned about is this week and that's what we'll put our focus on. At some point there might be a time to reflect back on it, but right now… We'll do that some other time.
Randy Moss Postgame Q&A, 12/23
Here's teh full Q&A that Randy Moss had with the media after today's game:
Q: How nice was it for you to play alongside Troy Brown today?
RM: I think I was as excited as he was. I've always been a fan of Troy and I like the things he does in the slot as far as his quickness and his hands. I was just anxious to see him out there and be a part of the receiving corps again.
Q: Did you think as quickly as you started that you might get number 22 today [to tie Jerry Rice's single season touchdown reception record]?
RM: As you saw, the way we were trying to go downfield I really wasn't paying attention. I think once I caught my first one I was like, "Ok, this could be a long day" and then once they started playing defense – we came out [in the] second half and they made their adjustments. I just wanted to get the win. Like I said before, that record has been, I don't know how many years, but it's been up for a very long time. Records are meant to be broken and if I break the record I'm cool, if I don't I'm cool. As long as that zero stays in that [losses] column, I'm fine. Basically what I'm saying is I want to keep winning, the hell with the record.
Q: Would you like to get Tom [Brady] the passing touchdown record?
RM: I'm not speaking for Tom; I'm speaking for myself. This is a team. There's no individual play here and I that's how coach prepares us week in and week out. He wants his team to go out there and do whatever we can to win the game. Like I said, if the touchdown record for wide receiver is broken, it's broken. If it's not, it's not, as long as we keep doing what we're doing and keep winning.
Q: You had some good blocks on [Laurence] Maroney's first long run. He seemed pretty appreciative of that.
RM: I told Maroney I tried to – the guy was on his heels a little bit and I was taught at a young age, at the beginning of my career, when you are out in the open space like that -I try my best to cut the guy so that gives the running back a little bit more vision so he can see more of the field. By my body presence and the DB's body presence it's like you see zigging in and out. Basically I was trying to go at him and hopefully he would bring his feet together so I could try and cut him and get him out of Laurence's way, but you saw him keep backpedaling. I just did whatever I could just to – I thought Maroney was going to go all the way across the field. Like I say, we win as a team, we lose as a team so it was just a team effort by everybody.
Q: Are you happy with where you are personally at this stage in the season?
RM: I don't have any complaints.
Q: Do you think it's important to keep taking those shots downfield to you when you have double, triple coverage, even when the play's not working?
RM: I mean, hell, I'm Randy Moss. What do you expect? (laughter)
Q: After you score a touchdown you do this, what does this [your touchdown celebration] mean?
RM: At the beginning of the year, you guys talked about how I lost my step and really wasn't into the game of football. Coming off my hamstring injury in training camp that – I don't even know how long the play was, but it was against the Jets, that long 70-80-something yarder. I thought to myself that physically I didn't think that I was able to do that, to run like that, because I'm coming straight off a hamstring injury – so for me to be able to part the defense like I did that's basically me parting the defense. That's where it came from.
Q: Did you think you got interfered with on that bomb that you were triple covered? It looked like you got jostled.
RM: All I know is it hurt. That's all I know. Physically, it did hurt. There are a lot of things in the game that you really don't feel until after the game, but that kind of hurt me. I went over to the ref, I think after the next series or something, and I asked him about that play, and he said, "We all had our heads around looking for the ball." It was a good call.
Q: With so much still to play for, is it hard to appreciate the historical significance of 15-0?
RM: I don't think the people, and when I say people I mean the fans of the game of football, I don't think they realize what we're doing, how hard [we're working for] what we're trying to accomplish. Coach Belichick, before this team was ever brought together, he already had a history of being able to get things done late in the season, basically, as far as playoff time, to make that run. This year, what we've done, we've put in a lot of hard work on the field and in the classroom. We sort of argue, but not toward him, amongst each other, about how hard it is throughout the week and [him] putting those pads on us last week was really physically hard. What we're trying to accomplish, I really see it coming together. I know we have the New York Giants next week; they're standing in our way. Hopefully we can get a victory. I know we're going to New York to put 11 on the field and see what happens.
Q: Have you ever been part of a team that has been so good at maintaining its focus throughout the season?
RM: I think that's hats off to Coach Belichick. Because you have a lot of different guys, a lot of different personalities. And with the success that we're having, to be honest with you, it really is kind of hard, and I'm not really talking about this team, I'm just saying when you have things going good like that, it's hard to keep everybody on the same page. It's hard to keep everybody focused. That's a credit to Coach Belichick and what he's done from the start of this thing to the end of it. So he has a tone or a beat, that we're beating to, trying to stay in rhythm. That's what we're beating to now: his beat.
Q: With the '98 Vikings, you had a great season, but you didn't close the deal. How much has that influenced you, in terms of not getting wrapped up in all the records?
RM: The one thing I don't try to do is I don't try to live in the past. I still have memories of my 10-year career in the NFL. But that one hurt, it really hurt. But, like I said, I don't really try to live in the past. I try to love in the present. What we have ahead of us now is really what I'm trying to put my mind to and go out and give it my all.
Streak snapped
With Miami's third-quarter touchdown pass from Cleo Lemon to Greg Camarillo, it marks the first offensive touchdown the Patriots have allowed in two weeks — a stretch of eight-plus quarters.
LB snaps in 1st half
We are compiling an unscientific list of how many snaps the New England linebackers have played. Here are our first-half numbers:
Of the 35 offensive snaps the Dolphins took in the first half:
Mike Vrabel played 35.
Adalius Thomas played 35.
Junior Seau played 29.
Tedy Bruschi played 24.
No other New England player was at linebacker in the first half.
Eight quarters and counting
The Patriots have now failed to allowed an offensive touchdown for eight-plus quarters. The last offensive touchdown scored on New England was by Pittsburgh on Nov. 26, when Ben Roethlisberger connected with Najeh Davenport on a 32-yard TD late in the second quarter.
Double digits for Vrabel
With Mike Vrabel's second-quarter sack of Miami quarterback Cleo Lemon, he becomes the first Patriot since Willie McGinest in 1995 to reach double-digits in sacks.
Lucky Seven
The Patriots' defense has now gone seven-plus quarters without allowing an offensive touchdown. The last offensive touchdown scored on New England was by Pittsburgh on Nov. 26, when Ben Roethlisberger connected with Najeh Davenport on a 32-yard TD late in the second quarter.
•The Tom Brady to Randy Moss first-quarter touchdown is the Patriots' 68th TD of the season, second-best in NFL history.
•And with his first-quarter appearance, Patriots wide receiver Troy Brown has now played in 192 games for New England — fourth-most in franchise history.

Chocolate Kale Clusters with Cumin & Cranberry, and Kids Version
Author Notes: Delicious chocolate with No More Guilt!
I combined my three favorite foods: cranberries (great for any day that's not Thanksgiving), chocolate, and kale (usually over-cooked). These chocolate clusters are low-sodium, packed with vitamins, and most importantly, the sewing-circle ladies loved them! - BoulderGalinTokyo
Makes 40 or so
- 1 bunch kale
- 1/2 cup raw sunflower seed kernels
- 1 1/2 Tablespoons whole cumin seeds
- 2 teaspoons anise seeds
- 12 ounces dark premium chocolate (340 g.)
- 1 cup dried cranberries, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup coconut
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon red chili pepper (cayenne)
- salt (optional)
- Kale: Wash and spin kale to dry. Divide into three piles. Pile 1. Ruffly leaves on tops and outside, torn in about 2 inch pieces. Pile 2. Thin stems less than half an inch cut out from between leaves. Pile 3. Thickest stems more than half an inch in diameter. Put #3 in bag and save in fridge for another use.
- Prepare an ice-water bath. Boil 6 cups of water in a saucepan. With water at a rolling boil, carefully add stems Pile #2, cover and wait until water reaches rolling boil again. Carefully uncover, add leaves Pile #1, cover again and wait until water reaches a rolling boil again. Leaves should be an emerald green. Drain kale. Shock in ice-water bath immediately. Should be al-dente with a crunchy bite. Drain again. Squeeze water out. Chop everything to 1/4 inch pieces by hand (food processor made pesto).
- Seeds: Toast sunflower kernels in a skillet on low heat until lightly colored and fragrant. Remove to large mixing bowl. Toast cumin seeds and anise seeds until fragrant. Put cumin and anise in mortar (spice mill) and coarsely chop. Put in same bowl as sunflower seeds.
- Add black pepper and red peppers to seeds. Add salt if you like. Stir. Add cranberries and coconut to spices. Stir. Add squeezed kale. Mix well.
- Coarsely chop chocolate so It will melt evenly. Put in a flat pan (pie plate) and microwave until chocolate is shiny. Remove, stir, and microwave more if needed to be smoothly melted. Pour over kale and seed mixture and mix quickly but thoroughly.
- Using a teaspoon mound in spoonfuls on cooking paper or foil. Cool.
- These keep only about 3 days so enjoy with friends.
- FOR KIDS: They probably won't want the extra spices. I recommend not adding spices in Step 4. Instead sprinkle on the top so kids can see which Chocolates Kale Clusters are for the adults and which are for them. (We want them to eat kale!)

Justin Bieber was waiting for girlfriend Selena Gomez at the Toronto airport on June 15 when fans approached wanting autographs. A verbal scuffle ensued and Justin didn't react in the most polite manner.
Although Justin Bieber did eventually pose for pictures with fans, he had a bit of a tantrum while waiting for Selena Gomez to land.
"Do I not have any right as a human being to wait for my own girlfriend? Why do you have to be so impatient?" Justin snapped at fans waiting for the star to sign autographs.
Fans insisted that they'd been waiting all day and Justin answered, "I've been here waiting for my girlfriend. I'm still a human being, I have a right to wait for my own girlfriend." One fan answered she wanted to keep waiting and he said, "You're not being very respectful at all. I feel very disrespected with all you guys waiting." He continued, "You say you're really my fans, but then why are you doing this."
Fans answered, "We've had a long day, just be nicer about it." Justin quipped, "I've had a long day too, I flew in. I don't have to be nicer about it. You guys are in my face."
Watch the video here:
On one hand, Justin has been working extremely hard promoting his brand new album Believe and his new fragrance GIRLFRIEND. He was obviously tired and just wanted to see his love Selena.
On the other, Justin is a huge celebrity and he has to realize that in his lifestyle, he can't go anywhere without being recognized and approached. If he was tired and didn't want to entertain fans, he could have waited in the car.
I know celebrities work long hours, but they also get paid very generously and enjoy fabulous perks. I've interviewed hundreds of celebrities in my four + years as an entertainment journalist and I can make a list of stars who have been nothing but grateful, friendly and pleasant at every interview — Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, and the Jonas Brothers — just to name a few.
I've also had a few horror experiences with certain celebrities who will remain unnamed, so I'm not entirely surprised something like this was caught on camera.
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Was Justin justified in snapping at fans?

He is a person just like anyone else and nobody is perfect, he is followed everyplace he goes. He can't walk out his door without someone snapping his picture and people at his heels. Yes his fans r the reason he is where he is but he is veiwed under a microscope by the entire world at all times and everything he does is leaked to complete strangers and a lot of it is lies and he has to deal with stress of people believing them.u become famous and endure what he has to and see if u don't have times u just don't want to be ambushed and bothered just get over it

I think he should have told them something like: "I am sorry you guys, I am really tired and right now I just want to wait for my girlfriend. I am really sorry that you all have been waiting here all day just to see me, but I really just want some private time." and idk.. add that he loves them for being his fans.

the fans were being rude to him cuz he wanted peace their nd not to get harressed by fans nd if they were really sorry they would hve left him alone id think he was being rude at all if i was him i would hve done the same thing to like celebrities also need private time to nd they were fans not beliebers cuz if they were beliebers they would hve sed srry then left but their fans.. .so i agree with what he was saying like he his a human being and all he wanted was space to wait for his gf and time alone like leave hima lone goshh….
Posted at 1:02 PM on October 30, 2012
I don't blame him; no one wants that attention 24/7 my goodness. I would never wait hours to meet a celebrity out side of their work. Why are so many people's head buried in these celebrities behinds. He looks tired and aggravated; also he is not being rude because he did take pictures with them he just needed his space which is understandable.
I actually became sad when justin said that to his fans…Like, why snap at them like that?? I understand clearly that he was waiting for his girlfriend to land and he was tired and waiting all day, but that does not give him the right to snap at them like that…from that girl's voice i tell that she was tired too…Justin should've waited in his car at least because it was getting out of control..I'm actually glad that the fans stood up for themselves…Now I have a different opinion about Justin…He's not that cute kid I fell in love with when I was younger…he's now this bad boy figure who's all over the magazines speeding, punching the paps, sticking up the middle finger?? Pattie should sit down and chat with him…He knows good and well that this was the consequence he was going to get when he gets famous..And girls are saying that Selena has changed him..and I totally agree with them..I never met him in person..nor did I met selena in person but before this video I hoped and prayed to god that they weren't like this…But now, I don't know what to think..Justin has ruined my day completely…I actually defended him when they accuse him of something in the magazines and now…after I watched this video…I don't care anymore…That's how all the celebrities get…I actually understand how he felt in his video,,because I actually felt it..and the fan felt hurt..but there is no reason to snap at them like that…and if he didn't want to get noticed, why sit on the ledge then?? He is spiraling out of control and I don't like it…Justin..THEY CAME HERE TO SEE YOU! And you are just going to sit there and just talk to them like that? He was being very rude and he should've just sucked it up..put the anger in the back of his mind and take pictures with his fans…they came to that airport to take pictures with you and enjoy your company and Selena's…I'm still his fan and all…but I feel hurt…

When you are famous you hae to give up somethings including some of your private life. He might have been tired but these are the things famous people go through he should of handled it better. I like justin bieber and if he would of said those things to me I would of been pissed off.

Posted at 2:51 AM on August 23, 2012
ya'all stupid , why he was being rude??!!? i mean is his life , why he have to say all that is no need he had take some pics but now they are all up on his face i mean AND THEN ONE GIRL SAY AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU KNOW WHY U HERE/?!! i will say yes i know and is not cause of you u did nothing so shut up cause u dont know me
Posted at 7:42 PM on August 20, 2012
i would lash out on them too because i mean gosh HE WAS JUST TRYING TO SEE HIS WOMAN!! you people are suffocating him and yes i admit he should of been more polite but crazy fans girls?, paparazzi? haters? interviews??? that stuff would make me want to explode! he cant even see his own girlfriend, sooner or later they gonna break up because they can never see each other, JUST LEAVE THAT DUDE ALONE GIVE HIM SOME SPACE! and if it is true that justin beat some paparazzi guy that he deserved that, i would beat him up too all flashing cameras in me and my girls face. LAY OFF HIM HES JUST A HUMAN BEING, NOT A GOD!!!!!!!!!
Posted at 8:15 AM on August 17, 2012
In my opinion, his behaviour was unecessary and downright rude. I get that he was "tired" and "wanted to see Selena" but why be all snappy to his fans? He shouldn't take his anger out on other people like that, even if they were being a bit clingy. And really… does he expect people to pay him so he can be nice to them? Not being at concert = no money = fans get to meet him for free = they don't deserve a bit of politeness from their idol.
I don't get how people are saying "he's just a human being" and "he's just tired". He's a celebrity, for God's sake. If he's down in he dumps and a bunch of clingy fans crowd around him, the kid has to know how to shake it off and behave politely in public.
And I thought teenage girls were worst.
Posted at 9:55 AM on July 30, 2012
I NEVER even saw the end of the video until now. Who was the guy with him, his security? Did he honestly say, "You're not going to get anything from him or Selena so you BETTER BE QUIET,"? Who the H*LL is he? Seriously? I think it's rude of Justin to let his "fans" who MADE him be DISRESPECTED like that! Also, the fans were NOT in his face so obviously he doesn't know what it is to have people in his face. He should have stayed in his car and waited for her, he knows he is a PUBLIC figure and if you don't want the lights and the cameras don't get into the business. I bet when the day comes that no one is waiting for him at the airport he'll be crying for the attention he's complaining about now because that will mean he's a has been. People are always comparing him to Justin Timberlake but at least Timberlake never had such a bad attitude about things & wasn't getting into all the trouble Bieber has been getting into lately. It seems since he turned 18 his mother has lost control of him and his behavior. PATTIE GET YOUR SON!

This is clearly a case of the El Paso police department not knowing the law. There is nothing illegal about video taping the police in public. Had they known that, they would have left Lopez-Ledesma alone and there wouldn't have been an issue.
Don't let the police or anyone tread on your rights as a citizen, especially due to something like ignorance of the laws they're supposed to be upholding.

Austin community leaders and philanthropists Teresa Lozano Long and Joe R. Long have given $1 million to The University of Texas at Austin's College of Education, endowing a fellowship fund for kinesiology, health education and educational administration graduate students and a fellowship fund for faculty.
Alumna Film Named Best Student Short in Cannes
"Danzak," a film written and directed by Radio-TV-Film alumna Gabriela Yepes, (M.F.A. '08), won the best student short film category at the Emerging Filmmaker Showcase at the American Pavilion at the Cannes Film Festival May 17. "Danzak" was selected among 400 other shorts from around the world.
