AUDIO: Shabazz Muhammad on his dad, what didn't work at UCLA
With the NBA Draft less than a month away and his stock/value very much up for debate, Shabazz Muhammad remains as polarizing a prospect as any in this year's crop. Not only that, but there's now an added level of drama, mystery and intrigue surrounding Muhammad. Specifically: His father's latest alleged troubles.
Muhammad went on the Jim Rome Show Friday to discuss everything from draft prep to his UCLA days to the recent report of his father's reported indictment on federal bank fraud and conspiracy charges.
"I wasn't really familiar with what happened," Muhammad said of the story. "I haven't talked to him. I mean, I'm always there for my dad."
Muhammad said the story isn't a distraction for him in the lead-up to the draft. He described his relationship with his father as "pretty strong," yet added he hadn't spoken with him "in a little bit" but that he's "a good father figure for me."
Rome asked Muhammad about the mystery surrounding his true age, an issue that came up in March.
"That was something I wasn't really familiar on either," Muhammad said. "I never told anybody I was 19. My friends know I'm 20. Everyone knows I'm 20. My driver's license says I'm 20. That's something that got twisted up with my father and reporters."
Muhammad acknowledged part of why he was doing an interview like this to begin with (you could understand if he wanted to pass on talking to the media right now) was his desire to speak up for himself, to be the only public spokesman for himself. (Previously, his dad had done a lot of the talking.)
There was also a conversation regarding Muhammad's time at UCLA. He called Ben Howland a "great coach" but also said the system Howland used held him back in some regard.
"There was some stuff that I wasn't really comfortable with," Muhammad said. "It wasn't a really up-tempo style of play, but I really enjoyed playing there. ... I didn't really get to show a lot of off-the-dribble stuff."
Give the interview a listen here:

Disney VHS Tapes
We have a collection of Disney video tapes that the kids watched when they were small(now 21&13). I can't bring myself to part with them(on occasion they still will watch them, but rarely). I have places to store them but if I hang on to them I realize that one day there won't be a VHS recorder in the house. We have 2 that still work. It will be like having a collection of 8-track tapes!! Any suggestions?
We have a couple of Disney tapes. My daughter (17!) still loves to watch them and in fact rented 2 the other day. We were talking to the woman at the store saying we had Beauty & the Beast and she said she wished they had it, but it was rented out once & not returned. The problem with Disney tapes is they only sell them every 10 years or something like that, so you can't just go out and get them on DVD. I would hold on to them if your kids like to watch them. Otherwise, a local video store might appreciate them.
msmagoo - I can almost guarantee that your local library will ALWAYS have the Disney movies on DVD. Think of it this way - the library will store your DVDs for you. Any time you want to watch them, you can reserve them and go pick them up from your storage depository (aka library).
That's how I think of the library - what a great thing, they will store all my books and movies for me! It relieves me of dealing with the clutter!
I had A TON of VHS Disney, Veggie Tales, and other kid movies. Even though my youngest is only 8, they never watched the VHS any more. So I gave them all to my church library - that way a lot of kids can enjoy them! The DVDs are just so much smaller to store so I kept them.
Having a 3 yr old obsessed with princesses right now, I would suggest you ask your friends with kids/grandkids if they would like to have any of the VHS.
The way that Disney Vault is, it's pretty hard to find the movies you want.
When my cousin offered up her Cinderella VHS to us a while back (must be 15 years old at least), I almost cried out loud. DD watches it all the time and I'm so thankful for the VHS copy. Not sure how many years it will be before it will be re-released and I can just go buy it without an ordeal.
You just can't find Cinderella or any other Disney movie in the vault unless you know someone who wants to unload it, or pay a pretty penny on EBay.

I have a textbox inside a Expasnders contentemplate that I'm trying to bind to from outside the expander, but it's not really possible, I have another textbox inside the expander looking like this:
and an exact duplicate of this markup outside the expander, The textbox inside the expander updates it's text proeprty when txtTitle is changed, the one outside doesn't so how do I get bind to txtTitle from outside the expander??
I will try to illustrate it with some sample xaml (sounds fun pronounced).
<TextBox Text="{Binding ElementName=ExpandertxtBox, Path=Text}" />
<TextBox Name="ExpandertxtBox" />
The problem is that the binding wont work because ExpandertxtBox is inside a contentemplate, and I'm trying to bind from outside, so how can I access it, what is the correct bindingpath?

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Canada's new soccer kit features sound wave graphic of 'O Canada'
TORONTO - When Canada's soccer teams take the pitch, it will be almost as if they're carrying the voice of Canadians with them.
In a move meant to connect with Canada's fans and inspire its players, the national team's new Umbro kits feature a sound wave graphic of "O Canada" sewn into the shirts and shorts.
"A group of fans at a pub one day were singing the anthem at the top of their lungs and (Umbro) took a sound bite from that, what it looked like and they put it on our new kits," said Carmelina Moscato, a defender on Canada's women's team. "So our fans are kind of always with us.
"It's a bit of a motivation, inspiration-type of thing, and I think it's a brilliant idea and it allows us to connect with our fans at all times."
The graphic — it's a couple of inches long and looks like something you'd find on a heart-rate monitor or an earthquake seismograph — is embroidered inside the neckline of the shirts and on the right hip of the shorts.
"It's our song, it defines us. It is traditionally and whole-heartedly Canadian," said Gerald Woodman, president of Umbro Canada. "We thought this was a great opportunity to combine sight and sound all in one really clever story, so we created this sonic wave, their sound embedded now into the garment.
"We think it's a really clever way to stay connected, to know that their voice is really on that shirt. And when they sign 'O Canada,' they sing with a little bit more lust, a little bit more passion to inspire our team on."
Canada's new kit, unveiled Thursday night at an upscale Toronto lounge, is a major departure from the previous jerseys that featured the large flashy V across the chest.
The new kits are more classic and understated, the home jerseys in matte red with simple white piping around the neckline and sleeves, and away jerseys the reverse.
The uniforms will be available in stores Monday and are already for sale online.
"We wanted to zig when everybody thinks we're going to zag," Woodman said of the return to a more simple design. "This is a real departure, smarter, more sophisticated, more style-driven, going away from shiny polyester to more of a matte finish — a real distinct look."
Woodman said the kit met with the approval of national team players when he visited training camps for both teams late last year.
"What I like about it is the fitting, it's always been a problem in the past with my sizing, me being a small guy and me liking my fitted gear," said Canadian midfielder Julian de Guzman. "But this time it fits pretty well and I'm very pleased with it and the quality of the material as well, it's very impressive."
The cotton fabric is the same found in the Umbro jerseys worn by England and Manchester City.
"The new jersey is very sophisticated and kind of a new cotton, it's something we haven't had in a jersey before with the national team," Moscato said. "I think overall we're going to look really good, and I think when you look good, you play good. So we're really excited about it."
Umbro was brought in last year as a partner through 2014, replacing Adidas.

An Exhibition of Emerging Artists from the Intermedia + Digital Arts (IMDA) MFA Program at UMBC
Featuring 2015 MFA thesis candidates:
March 24 – April 10
Jordan Faye Contemporary and Maryland Art Place (MAP), 218 West Saratoga Street (first + fifth floors)
For more information and contact:
In collaboration with Current Gallery, Jordan Faye Contemporary Art, and Maryland Art Place and in partnership with the Bromo Arts and Entertainment District, we are pleased to introduce INCIDENTAL MATTERS. This exhibition features six MFA thesis candidates hosted by UMBC's Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture (CADVC) and the Department of Visual Arts. The 2015 M.F.A thesis exhibition venues for "Incidental Matters" are located within a short alley walk from each other in two buildings in Baltimore's downtown Bromo Arts & Entertainment District. This 2015 exhibition is grateful for the support of UMBC's College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences.
UMBC's INTERMEDIA + DIGITAL ARTS (imda) M.F.A. Program is where interdisciplinary artists seek to expand or reinvent their professional practice. The IMDA program is committed to artists that pose unique conceptual and social challenges while offering them an environment that provides courses in emerging methods, contemporary art and theory, a studio, teaching opportunities, engaged faculty, premier visiting artists and research centers that are typical of a research university. Each year these emerging artists present their culminating work in the form of installations, new media, performance, interactive sculpture and other conceptual art objects. The MFA exhibition is created with a professionally designed journal published by imda journal.

Animation artist Tim (Silouan) Bubb draws on historical, mythical, and theoretical materials to explore an animated iconography of spiritual symbiosis between humankind and technology in his work SILHOUETTE SYNAXARION. This work, on view at MAP, consists of holographic projections manifested in a free-standing, modular shadow theater.
Chanan Delivuk's navigating family in an unfamiliar place is an installation of photographs and audio/video documentation of the artist's journey to a remote mountain village in Croatia that shares her last name. Also included are objects from the village, including food, coffee, and homemade slivovitz. During the opening reception for the exhibition, the artist will hold a performance in the rear outdoor space of Current Gallery that will allow visitors, including the artist's Croatian family who live in the mid-Atlantic region, to interact and converse over food and drink from Delivuki and to reflect on origins in places of the past while gathering in a contemporary location.
Kata Frederick uses dirt, charcoal, and other organic materials to create physical and contemplative durational performances. In addition to his Current Gallery exhibition of works that employ ethereal film projection and drawings, he will perform daily in the space.
Jason Hughes is an interdisciplinary artist who has focused on the history of economic power and its influence over cultural representation in the United States. His recent emphasis has crossed boundaries of textiles, collages, and sculptures cast from shredded currency; a series of large-scale prints that are ornate abstract composites of money; and sculptural objects from appropriated street barricades used for crowd control. Works from these projects will be exhibited at Jordan Faye Contemporary.
Meghan Marx explores hoarding, bioaccumulation, and the moments when pesticides and other chemicals are absorbed, inhaled, or ingested by a living organism at a rate greater than that at which these toxic substances are lost. Her work, on display at MAP, is a kinetic and interactive sculpture informed by data that the artist gathered in Baltimore and used as a basis from which to construct a breathing monument simulating "airscape."
Using art installations, sculptures, and durational performances, Victor Torres studies the historical trajectory of sounds and their meanings as pivotal not only to understanding and tracking how human perceptions and mythologies have changed over millennia, but also how societal norms can be rewritten and who has that agency. Torres will exhibit and perform multimedia interactive masks, as well as his own verbowritten language, during his exhibition at MAP.

Look At Gawd: Single Mom Wins $188M From Powerball Lottery
One of the three Powerball lottery winners has already decided what she's going to do with at least part of the $188 million she won earlier this week.
"First I'm going to pay my tithes because I wouldn't have none of it if it wasn't for God," Marie Holmes told WECT 6.
The news of Holmes' win is certainly an inspiring one, as the 26-year-old single mother of four children, one of which has cerebral palsy, revealed that she previously worked at McDonalds and Walmart, but had to quit in order to care for her children.
"I was currently looking for employment, and then God brought this along. I'm grateful. I'm grateful."
While she admits that the reality of her win hasn't fully set in, she's ready to embrace her new life.
"I'm ready for it. I'm ready to embrace the change. I'm very grateful for what's about to happen for my family," Holmes told WSOC TV.
In addition to cutting her church a hefty check, Holmes' plans for the money includes putting money aside for her children's college tuition and buying a house.
"I'm thankful that I can bless my kids with something that I didn't have," she expressed. "I'm going to set up accounts for my kids and when I figure out where we're going to live, I'm going to buy a house for me and my kids and then I'm going to make sure my family is good."
What makes Holmes' story so heartwarming is knowing how much she has struggled up to this point.
"I have four kids, one boy and three girls. I've been struggling since I had them, but I wouldn't trade nothing because they're a blessing. I'm just thankful that I can actually do it for them without anybody's help, without anybody telling me that they did this or that. I don't have to worry about the word 'struggle' anymore and neither do they."
The entire jackpot was for $564.1 million. The other two winning tickets were sold in Texas and Puerto Rico.

Kenya Moore Says She's A Size Four, Not A Six (And That's the Worst Rumor About Her)
Breaking news everyone, Kenya is a size four, not a size six. And yes, that's the only rumor she's willing to address.
Yesterday, the folks at Rumorfix caught up to Kenya and asked her if she needed any rumors fixed and all Keny had to say was:
"That I wear size six and I actually wear a four…that's the worst thing that you can possibly say about me."
But we know the RHOA villain was just covering for the news we really want her to spill. When Rumorfix tried to get to the real nitty gritty, saying, "Now we asked fans to come up with questions for you. And one of the questions is 'will you ever smooth things over with Porsha Williams,'" Kenya clammed up quick:
"I'm not going to answer that question."
We guess Kenya wasn't ready to spill any tea, but she may have tipped a little accidentally, which is why now we want to know is: was Kenya passed up for a spot on "Dancing With the Stars"?
When Rumorfix asked Kenya if it was great to see NeNe on DTWS, Kenya said she wouldn't know because she hadn't seen her. When Rumorfix asked if she'd like to be on it, Kenya quipped "I'm a great dancer, I would love to be on that show." and then turned away from the camera for a few salty beats.
Kenya has been shading NeNe's fading acting career as of late, but did Kenya also try to take NeNe's place and get rejected? Check the video and let us know what you think.

Daddy On Duty: TJ Holmes Talks About Fatherhood And How Its Grounded Him
From Essence
New dad T.J. Holmes is officially on diaper duty.
The former host of BET's late-night talk show Don't Sleep says he does his best to help his wife Marilee Fiebig with caring for their two-month-old daughter Sabine.
"I probably change more diapers than her because she breastfeeds and she has to do that," Holmes told ESSENCE.com at the premiere of Free Angela. "So I do the thing that I can do and that's change diapers."
Awww, isn't that sweet! Men don't really like to help with diaper changes (it isn't a woman's favorite thing either) so it's nice to see he's become a pro at it. You can read the rest over on Essence.
What have been some of your most memorable moments as parents?
It's A Girl! TJ Holmes & Wife Welcome New Baby To The Family
Looks like congratulations is in order!
The YBF has officially confirmed that television anchor TJ Holmes and his wife Marilee welcomed a baby girl into the world on Friday.
Marilee gave birth to baby Sabine who weighed in at seven pounds and 8 ounces in Atlanta where the two still call their primary residence She's also about 20 inches long. What a very pretty name!
YBF is also reporting that TJ will remain in Atlanta while his BET show Don't Sleep, which is filmed in New York, is still on hiatus. As it stands, there's been no word on when the show will return to the BET lineup.
Since he's still there, it may be time to see if the bridges are broken over at CNN; maybe he can do a little moonlighting over there like he did a few weeks on MSNBC. I suppose we'll have to see what happens next in his career.
Mom and baby are doing just fine. Congrats again to the happy couple.
I have one question: Who's in charge of the sip & see? Fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta will get that one.
Jumping Ship? BET's TJ Holmes Makes Surprise Guest Anchor Appearance on MSNBC
We weren't going to say anything but since Eurweb brought it up, we might as well go there.
TJ Holmes, host of BET's "Don't Sleep," made a surprising appearance on MSNBC Saturday morning as he filled in for Alex Witt on "Weekends with Alex Witt." He then reappeared in an afternoon shift making us wonder: What's going on with his relationship at BET?
Now, there are a lot of ways we can go with this (and we might) but let's just point out that TJ tried to clear up any notions that he was completely done with BET by tweeting:
"To clear this up: last "Don't Sleep" episode of 2012 was last wk. Look forward to it in 2013. But, u can see me other places, like
So, we know "Don't Sleep" isn't coming to an end just yet. But we also know that Holmes wasn't exactly excited that the show went from a daily 30 minute show to a weekly one hour show. That move may have been exactly what he needed to start exploring other options and "moonlighting" on MSNBC is not a bad place to start. We all know the best relationships start with some sort of a "meeting."
Holmes also tweeted in regards to his anchor seat position:
"Yes, I'm doing some moonlighting with my former NBC family. Sitting in for
@alexwitt this weekend. More on Monday. #backintheanchorchair"
So there's news on Monday, huh?We eagerly await what TJ has to say, if anything, then. The ratings over on BET aren't great and it is possible that things just aren't moving in the direction he thought they would.
We see you, TJ…make moves.
MN Year In Review: Our 10 Most Shocking News Stories
In MN's Year In Review, we're counting down our top stories as well as the biggest moments in television, music, movies, and news.
With so much going on every day, most news stories end up being big today and forgotten tomorrow, but these 10 stories were so shocking, sad, and disturbing they stuck with us all year. Check out the list:
No Excuse At All: Mother Arrested After Holding Baby Under Scalding Hot Water For Crying
In April, 18-year-old Port Richey, FL, mom Chekayla Dampier was arrested on charges of aggravated child abuse after she put her 7-week-old baby under scalding hot water to punish him for crying excessively. A little over a week later, the baby boy died from the burns he suffered as a result of the 142-degree water which left him with severe burns to his head, chest, arms, and even his eyes and ears.
Wasted Opportunity: BET Co-Founder Sheila Johnson Disappointed With Network
Over the years many people have complained about Black Entertainment Television (BET). Among the complaints: too much focus on entertainment, not enough news, too much low-brow entertainment, to many explicit music videos. Complaints really peaked when BET failed to cover live the 1992 L.A. Riots following the beating of Rodney King by LAPD. During all of this, BET co-founder Robert Johnson would always answer his critics that BET was entertainment TV—not news TV.
Now Johnson's former wife and BET co-founder, Sheila Johnson, is lamenting the history of BET, which was sold to Viacom in 2001 for $3 billion.
Johnson recently spoke at the "Conversations and Encounters" program at the Carmel Art and Film Festival in Monterey County, CA where, according to EUR, she said she thought BET is a "squandered opportunity." She added, "I think we squandered a really important cable network, when it really could have been the voice of Black America. We're losing our voice as a race as a result. I'm really worried about what our young people are watching. There are so many young people who are using the television as a babysitter. We have parents who are not being parents and not monitoring what their children are watching."
News only recently returned to BET with Don't Sleep with TJ Holmes. Prior to that, former BET journalist Ed Gordon's news segments always struggled to find a solid place on the network, which played more video than news. And even the videos have come under attack, with calls for BET to censor some of the explicit videos and critics claims that BET promotes African-Amerian stereotypes.
Regardless, BET, which launched in 1980, remains the most prominent TV network targeting African Americans. It currently reaches more than 90 million households.

Now that I have a camera on my new computer, I can share with you a video and a story that I'll be sharing with my grandkids someday about something that happened to me on September 11, 2001 I'll never forget. In a way, I'm glad it's a funny thing that ended up happening because the horrors of that day will forever linger.
In April 2001, I had a little bit of extra time during the day that I did not have before because I was unemployed at the time. That is when I began watching some of the morning television programs I have never seen before since they came on while I was at work. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the daytime programming. One such television entertainment show that I especially liked was one that broadcast live out of downtown Manhattan in New York City called LIVE with Regis and Kelly.
Regis Philbin is the affable male host of the show who became a household name over the past couple of years with his hit ABC-TV show, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire (although it was surprisingly canceled after ratings slipped). Kelly Ripa, who replaced long-time female co-host Kathy Lee Gifford in early 2001, is the sexy, but quirky sidekick for Regis on the show. She also stars in the daytime soap opera All My Children and the recently nixed ABC comedy Hope & Faith.
One day in May 2001, I noticed that LIVE with Regis and Kelly was running a contest called "Travel Trivia." Everyday the show would have a contest near the beginning of the broadcast with a lucky contestant from home for a chance to win a trip to various places all over the world. Regis would spin a wheel to find out which trip the contestant would be playing for. Then the contestant at home got 20 seconds to answer a question about one of the guests from the previous day's show. Even if they got the answer wrong, the contestants were given a $250 gift certificate to various stores as a consolation prize.
After watching the show one day, I decided to hop on my computer to visit the LIVE with Regis and Kelly web site to find out more information about how to enter for a chance to be a contestant in the "Travel Trivia" contest. To my delight, there was a link right there on the web site to enter once per day. There was also an address to send postcards, but the web site seemed to be a more efficient and economic way to enter. Thus, I made the LIVE with Regis and Kelly web site one of my daily visits for the next 4 months.
And then on September 11, 2001 it happened...
I got a call from one of the producers of LIVE with Regis and Kelly at 7:30am that day. She said my name was chosen to be a contestant in the "Travel Trivia" contest. I said jokingly "I knew it had to be you guys calling me this early in the morning!" She told me that I would be asked a question about one of the guests from the previous day's show and she told me who was on the show since I admitted I had not watched that day. The producer said that she would be calling me back around 8:45am to be put on hold until the "Travel Trivia" contest took place live on the show around 9:15am.
After hanging up the phone with her, I immediately jumped out of bed and hit the Internet to research what I could find about each of the guests from the previous day's show. I went to Yahoo!, Google, and wherever else I could find and entered the names of the guests to record as much information as I could about their careers on a legal pad. I made notes of what I could find and went into my living room to turn on the television and wait by the telephone for the call.
A little over an hour after I received that exciting telephone call, the tragic attack on the World Trade Center towers in New York City began. I was literally on hold with the producer of LIVE with Regis and Kelly watching the television waiting for the show to begin around 8:45am when The Today Show began showing the first World Trade Center tower on fire. The commentators were speculating that it might have been an accident.
When it was time for LIVE with Regis and Kelly to begin at 9:00am, the producer came on the line and told me that they might not be having a show today because of the plane flying into the World Trade Center tower. She said that their studio is only a few blocks from the World Trade Center towers. At 9:00am, I was listening on the phone to LIVE with Regis and Kelly since The Today Show was still being shown on the television.
Around 9:10am, I was watching the television with the mute on and listening to Regis talking about what was happening in New York when the other plane crashed into the second World Trade Center tower. I could hear the gasps of the audience members when that happened and you could sense that something unprecedented was happening.
At that moment, the producer came on the line and said that something really bad was going on in New York City and that they will have to evacuate their building immediately. She assured me that I would be called back as soon as the next show was scheduled...whenever that would be. Somehow, that was not the most important thing to me at the time after the horrific scene my eyes had witnessed on television!
For the next few days, the producer (I found out later that her name is Linda) called me from her home to let me know that they had not forgotten about me and that I am in line to be called for the "Travel Trivia" game as soon as they are back on the air live. Because downtown Manhatten was closed for several days because of the fear that other buildings in the area might collapse, it was over a week before the show would be back on the air again live. They showed repeats of the show until LIVE with Regis and Kelly returned to the air on Wednesday, September 19, 2001.
It was on that Wednesday in September that I would have my chance to win a trip to an enchanting vacation destination...
When I got the phone call from Linda the producer on September 19, 2001 at 7:30am, this time, I was ready for it to happen. I was probably the only contestant they ever had who had more than a week to prepare for the "Travel Trivia" game (actually, I did not do any additional research than I had done on the morning they called me). Because it had been so long since their last show, though, I asked Linda what kind of question I would get for the "Travel Trivia" contest. She said it would be the same question they would have asked if they had the show on September 11th. So I went back to the notes I made from my research of the guests from September 10th.
Finally, it was time for the show to begin at 9am. I was watching the show on my television with the volume turned all the way down while I was listening to the show on the telephone. I was so nervous that I could feel my heart beating loudly and my hands were getting sweaty. I even noticed every breath I was taking was very deliberate and shallow. The time seemed to go by extremely slow as I awaited my opportunity to be on national television. Obviously, I was getting excited because I knew I was only seconds away from having the chance to win a trip to a popular vacation spot.
Around 9:15am, it was time for "Travel Trivia." Watch what happened next when yours truly, Jimmy Moore, made his television debut long before he started or was even thinking about livin' la vida low-carb. This is hilarious, so you don't wanna miss it (you can also watch it at YouTube and comment there if you would like):
When the big wheel of prizes came down from the ceiling as the theme music for the game was being played, my knees were shaking hard. Then on the television screen was an outline of South Carolina with a big red star where my hometown was, signifying that I was from Spartanburg, SC.
My name was also plastered across the screen as Regis said, "On the phone is Jimmy Moore (he pronounced it Moooore, like a cow!) from Spartanburg, SC. How ya doin' Jimmy?" At that moment, the phone was screeching really loud as I was saying hello to both Regis and Kelly. Regis said that they must be having some technical difficulties with their phone. Regis said "Can we hear Jimmy?" About that time, I said very clearly, "Hello?" Regis responded, "Oh, Hi Jimmy, how you doing?" I retorted back, "I'm here buddy!" Regis, Kelly and the studio audience burst into laughter.
Regis, the consummate professional able to make small talk with anyone, made the only connection he had to South Carolina: Lou Holtz who was the coach of the South Carolina Gamecock football team at the time. He started bragging about Holtz' 2-0 record at the beginning of the 2001 season.
Kelly inquired about how Regis knew so much about college football, but Regis explained that he likes to keep up with certain teams, such as South Carolina. Kelly then says, "South Carolina, isn't that the Tarheels?" Regis chimes in that the Tarheels are actually the North Carolina team. He explained that South Carolina are the Gamecocks. Then he said in a matter-of-fact manner looking at the camera, "Right, Jimmy?" Then I said, "I'm not a big fan, but yeah!" Again the audience and Kelly burst into laughter as Regis looked exacerbated by my statement. I tried to explain to him that I am a fan of the Tennessee Volunteers, my alma mater, but the phone started acting up again.
Regis quickly began describing a new prize to England valued at $14,000 that was added to the wheel that day. Then Regis asked what I did for a living. I explained that I was a student working on my Master's Degree in public policy back then and that I would be graduating in May 2002 from Regent University in Virginia Beach, Virginia. He wished me well in my career endeavors. Regis asked if I was married. I told him that "I am married to my beautiful wife, Christine, for six years. No kids yet, though." Regis said that "this would be a nice trip for the two of you."
Finally, after all the chit chat was finished, it was time to get down to business and play the game. Regis spun the "Travel Trivia" wheel to see what trip I would be playing for. As it spun around and around, I was hoping it would land on a really nice vacation spot. As it slowed down, you are never going to believe what the destination for the trip I was playing for landed on...MYRTLE BEACH, SC!
Regis started shaking his head and said, "Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, you won the prize, Myrtle Beach, SC!" Kelly perked up and said, "Hey Jimmy, you could walk there, right?" I responded that it was only a few hours away. Regis then asked me if I played golf and I responded, "Uh, no!" ( I do now, by the way!).
Regis replied, "It's still a lovely place to visit because you could walk on the beach and watch those great sunsets." Kelly jokingly said, "You can call home, it wouldn't even cost you anything." Regis got a big kick out of that comment as everyone in the studio laughed. Regis explained that it was a week's stay and included two rounds of golf.
Then Regis got this bright idea look on his face as he explained that this would be the perfect opportunity for me to learn how to play golf while I was in Myrtle Beach. He said that if I learned how to play golf, I would always remember that Regis and Kelly were the ones who made it happen for me. Regis then said that in order for me to win, though, I have to answer the trivia question correctly first.
The question was about professional tennis player Lleyton Hewitt, who had just defeated Pete Sampras in the 2001 U.S. Open. The trivia question asked "What country is Lleyton Hewitt from?" Being a sports fan and looking at my sheet of notes from my research, I knew the answer right away. I said the answer emphatically--"Australia!" Regis said "You got it, Jimmy!" The announcer came on and described my vacation, which he said was valued at $4000 (had to pay the taxes on that trip, too! EEEK!).
I also enjoyed picking a number so an in-studio guest could win a prize. At the time I was 29 years old, so I just added a "1" in front of my age to come up with "129." As you will notice in the video, the winner was a mom there with her young son and daughter and the genuine look of excitement on that little girl's face is something I'll never forget. I was so happy she won.
Before I hung up the phone, Regis said, "Jimmy, have a wonderful time down there in Myrtle Beach. Will you do me a favor?" I said, "Yes, sir." He continued, "Will you write me after you take advantage of this vacation and tell me that you took golf lessons while you were there?" Thinking quickly, I told Regis that he would have to come with me. Regis retorted that his back problems prevent him from playing anymore. He then wished me well again as they went into a commercial break.
So, Myrtle Beach, SC is where Christine and I went on our anniversary in 2002...compliments of LIVE with Regis & Kelly. The ironic twist to this story is that I was NOT able to take advantage of those two rounds of golf. I broke the nevicular bone in my left wrist in May 2002 and it had not healed well enough for me to swing a golf club yet. Oh well! At least I can always say that Regis Philbin paid for my vacation! :D
That's my Regis & Kelly 9/11 memory I'll never forget!

Can someone confirm this is Zoysia?
I live in Northern New Jersey and we just bought a house in November and it appears that we have Zoysia grass. I'm eventually going to put a sprinkler system and replace it with kentucky blue grass, but just looking to confirm this before I go overboard trying to kill the stuff and replant. Long term I want to regrade and terrace etc... but for now I'd be happy with just getting rid of the overgrown hedges and replanting a nice lawn of bluegrass.
I won't start anything until the late summer/fall at the earliest, but I'm starting to get my game plan together. My goal is to get the grass growing full speed, and then do 2 courses of round up, 2 weeks apart. After the first application I'll cut it everything back very low and water. Then I'll wait for it to reemerge, then do another round of round up, wait another 2 weeks and reseed. At some point in there I want to install the sprinkler system, as I think it would be easier to cut down the zoysia really low after I roundup, and I don't want to hurt the sprinkler heads. Again this all depends on funds, the time and energy is there, but the money isn't...
I know it's difficult/impossible to get rid of zoysia, but I think sod cutting the entire yard would be a ridiculous amount of work to get rid of 2" of grass on approximately 3000 square feet of yard. Unless I can find someone who wants the sod, in which case it might be worth it...
Thanks, Bill
Larger pictures here:
Thanks, I kinda assumed that, but reading a million posts and a few books doesn't substitute from somebody who's actually seen/touched/felt the stuff in person. Kinda like how you pronounce some word you've only ever read, and you mispronounce it... and someone more knowledgeable corrects you. Kinda embarrassing, but that's kinda what I was going for, making sure I wasn't going through all this trouble under the wrong assumptions.
But how's that plan of kill, mow low, water, kill, reseed sound? I've read some people suggests sod cutting 2" down for good measure, but I'm just seeing if it's feasible to get away without that step. Seeing how Zoysia is slow growing, I was hoping to fertilize and water to promote KBG and mow at 3" so eventually the KBG wins out if the Zoysia does manage to come back somehow. I was also considering Supina Bluegrass... as I heard it was fairly agressive, or maybe just a variety that would have a better leg up than home depot brand mixes etc...
You can't really displace Zoysia with a cool season grass, it just won't happen. You have to kill it, and remove as much of it as possible. Refer to this thread and check out the links I included to read about how to kill zoysia and reseed with a cool season grass:
Regarding poa supina, I don't recommend it for a lawn that gets full sun, stick with KBG, TF, or PR.
Great Links! I kind a ran out of where to look, and that hit the nail on the head, same scenario. Hopefully I'll have enough time before the fall to do basically the same thing as Turf Toes. Thanks!
This post was edited by ocelaris on Sat, Apr 20, 13 at 1:31
For anyone following along... basically this is exactly what I want to do, remove zoysia, install sprinklers, plant dark KBG...
Yes, it does look like Zoysia. If you really want to get rid of it, wait until it greens up some more and then start treating it with Roundup. You're going to have bare soil for a few months until the Bluegrass germinates. In your area you can start seeding as early as first week in August, don't wait until September as the Bluegrass seeds take a long time to germinate and established.
Get a blend of Bluegrasses, at least 3. If you have some shade issues, use Fine Fescue in those areas only.
You can always paint the Zoysia dark green when it goes dormant, which in your area it will be 6+ months.
Take a look at the link below:

Overnight stay for a wedding
The suite was freezing and it was impossible to heat it so we turned the heating off after 4 hours of it allegedly being at 30 degrees C.
The bed was comfortable and the television was big enough to see from it. There was evidence of the occupants before us on the floor and on the settee that hadn't been cleaned away. There was no fridge and the lights were so dim I had to use the torch app on my phone to see the heater controls with all the room lights on. We had lunch shortly after arrival and when I ordered 'Escalope of Pork Cordon Blue' I got Queen Scallops in a tomato sauce??. My wife had completely finished her meal before my replacement arrived but that was probably my own fault as the waitress was upset enough without me making a fuss.. The buffet at the wedding was fine but there were no condiments either at point of service or on the tables, strange. Breakfast the next morning was just OK but plentiful. At check out no-one asked us about our stay or looked like they even cared.

The first fifteen minutes of Drive may be the best movie I've seen this year. In an ordinary hotel room with a window that peers out on a neon-colored Los Angeles cityscape, a movie stuntman who enjoys a second career as a getaway driver (Ryan Gosling, in a commanding performance) is talking into his cell phone, tersely explaining his way of doing business to a prospective client on the other end. You have me for five minutes, he says, if you aren't back in the car by then, I'm gone. Hanging up, he heads to the garage, fires up his vehicle of choice and pulls out into the street.
Arriving at his destination -- a non-descript warehouse in an industrial neighborhood -- he puts five minutes on his clock and opens the back door. Two masked men scale the warehouse fence and force their way inside; a minutes passes, then another and another. One of the men emerges and makes straight for the idling car. His partner is still inside though and reports of the robbery have hit the police scanner. Sirens approach and, behind the steering wheel, the Driver (whose name is never revealed during the course of the movie) prepares to peel off. Just then, the second robber runs wildly out of the warehouse and leaps into the vehicle. The Driver promptly floors the gas and speeds away, the cops not far behind. His passengers are freaking out, but the Driver remains cool and collected, taking hairpin turns down back alley ways and navigating twisty side streets with expert precision. Eventually, he arrives at the Staples Center and pulls into the crowded parking garage. Once the car is parked, he gets out, pulls on a baseball cap and walks onto the sidewalk, vanishing into the crowd of post-game revelers just as uniformed officers arrive on the scene. Despite the odds, he's just pulled off the perfect getaway.
For fans of stylish (and heavily stylized) filmmaking, everything about this pre-credits sequence is invigorating, from the gorgeous inky-black cinematography (by Newton Thomas Sigel) to the razor-sharp editing (courtesy of Mat Newman) to the dreamy, synth-heavy score (composed by Cliff Martinez) to director Nicholas Winding Refn's unerring sense for the exact right place to put the camera. The rest of the movie is pretty great too, but this opening salvo dazzles and delights in a way few movies have this year. It gave me the same tingle of excitement I experienced when I saw Pulp Fiction for the first time -- that sense that I was in the hands of a director who understood and more importantly loved this material inside and out and was determined to get the audience drunk on repeated shots of pure cinema.
Like Quentin Tarantino, Refn wears his influences on his sleeve. In both its style, story and sensibility, Drive evokes the work of such filmmakers as William Friedkin (specifically To Live and Die in L.A.), Michael Mann (most notably Thief, Collateral and both the TV and film versions of Miami Vice) and John Boorman (director of the seminal L.A. noir Point Blank). But again like Tarantino, the Danish director is more than a gifted mimic. Rather he synthesizes these various cinematic reference points and comes up with his own distinct visual language. Drive may feel familiar, but it's not a glorified repeat -- it's a square-minded, small-scale genre picture told with exhilarating brio and showmanship.
As with so many noirs before it, at its core Drive is the story of a boy and a girl whose fledgling love affair is short-circuited by a series of poor decisions. Against his better judgment, the solitary Driver starts hanging around his cute-as-a-button neighbor Irene (Carey Mulligan), who has been left alone with her young son while her hubby (Oscar Isaac) is in the slammer. Their casual friendship quickly blossoms into something more; in the movie's most purely romantic moment, they take a drive together and her hand reaches for his by the dashboard light. But this love story comes to a screeching halt when her husband is released from prison and is tasked with pulling off a snatch-and-grab for a gang back on the inside. Making his second major mistake, the Driver offers his assistance, but the job inevitably goes south and he finds himself the target of a pair of vicious L.A. gangsters (Ron Perlman and Albert Brooks... yes, that Albert Brooks) who have no compunction about killing anyone and everyone -- even women and children -- to keep themselves out of jail.
At this point, Drive erupts in an orgy of bloodshed that sees numerous lives snuffed out in exceptionally brutal ways. The sadism might be too much for some viewers to stomach and, to be honest, Refn does stage some of the deaths with a certain tittering, "now watch this" glee that recalls the worst examples of torture porn. (He's also guilty of belaboring a running visual metaphor tied into the old "Scorpion and the Frog" fable.) But the brutality also makes sense within the world of the film; because of the way the Driver and the rest of the men in his orbit have chosen to live, their decisions carry literally life-or-death consequences. Despite what the opening sequence suggests, it turns out that there's no such thing as the perfect getaway. Whether he knows it or not (and deep down he almost surely does) the Driver's road only leads him to one destination. The power and, yes, pleasure of the movie lies in watching him get there.
Check out Ryan Gosling's strangely awkward unscripted conversation with the director of Drive.

Migration and the Externalities of European Integration (Program in Migration and Refugee Studies)
Migration and the Externalities of European Integration analyzes the extra-European dimension of the European Union's migration policies and the mechanisms developed to enforce the EU's policy decisions. While previous scholarship has tended to overlook the consequences of Europeanization on actors outside the EU, this work scrutinizes the foreign policy dimension in EU migration policies and highlights the Union's complex role as an international actor. Written by scholars of migration policy, the essays discuss the impact of EU asylum and refugee policy on Norway, Switzerland, Eastern Europe, and the Euro-Mediterranean region and the effect of migration on European immigration controls and welfare policy. This comprehensive treatment of transnational migration will be a valuable resource for students of international affairs, European integration, and international organization.

Recycling Bikes In Albany, N.Y.
By Eric Breitung
The Albany Bicycle Coalition started in my backyard in 2003 when a small group of mechanically inclined bike enthusiasts-volunteers gathered to learn bike repair skills and repair bikes that were headed to the dump. The rescued bikes were then donated to local organizations for kids.
Eventually we grew and moved into a community center basement, where the focus is on teaching kids skills while improving community relations.
Nowadays, volunteers spend their evenings reaching out to kids to build bikes, share skills, and create community.
Eric Breitung is a chemist at the Library of Congress and listens to WAMU and WAMC.
