Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
That was actually a pretty good season. I think our limits were entirely in place the moment Matt Slauson decided that the easiest way to get Brian Cushing off his back was to cheap shot him out of the season but it was a good ride for the most part.
Usually when the Texans go on win streaks I am constantly watching things that we're getting away with but shouldn't be doing. Things we manage to win in spite of. Over the first 5 weeks I never really felt like that. I think I expected Schaub to have a little rust coming back and I kept looking for Wade's defense to drop off as I'd been told to expect but I never noticed it all that much. All of that changed in week 5 when Cushing went down. The next week the Packers just used us like toilet paper in prime time and I think we all knew that something had changed. The follow up beat-down of the Ravens was a blast though and the next two wins against Buffalo and Chicago almost had me thinking we were still going to be all right. Then the two OT games scared the crap out of me. Suddenly we start giving up 37 and 31 points a game and a clumsy win in Nashville didn't impress anybody. Hell at least it wasn't another OT game right? Then the Patriots started the slow spiral down to the bottom of the bowl. 42-14 was about right. That's about how much better they are than us. That game broke the Texans season really. In a lot of ways it unmanned them. They bounced back from the Green Bay loss but they never came back from the beating New England gave them. Most of all Matt Schaub and the OL never came back. In the home win against the Colts that sealed up the division they still didn't look right. I mean, Foster looked great at the end and AJ was still rolling along proving to everyone that he wasn't too old to whip some ass but the OL wasn't protecting at all like they did before New England nor were they opening holes like before. Schaub looked like a shell of the guy who started the season. Worst of all the defense started to become terribly unreliable in crunch time. When you absolutely needed a stop it wasn't there. Against Minnesota and Indy the team threw their season away. Sure the Bengals WC round game is nice but ultimately it means nothing. The Texans got no further this year than last year when they were balling with a 5th round rookie. Seasons like this that end with a bitter beating after having so much promise hang around. They tend to stick to the teams that endure them. This year was maybe the most straightforward path to the Super Bowl I've ever seen a Houston football team on. Win one of those two infinitely winnable games at the end and you play two home playoff games and force the Patriots and Broncos to play one another. To not succeed at that is a choke job of epic proportions and to think that it's possible that nobody at the top over there understands that is saddening. If this loss and the way this team stumbled down the stretch accomplished anything positive at all I'd hope it makes someone over there look in the mirror and question what they've been doing. The Texans have two enormous problems. They've got a sub-par QB who they just signed up for another four years with and their offensive line (and the philosophy it is based on) has issues that three Pro Bowl nods can't conceal. The right side of the line is a mess. I keep asking myself why was the RG position still being platooned this late in the year? All I can think of is that they don't have anybody they think is ready to play there so they aren't concerned with getting it to gel. I think they'll pick OL heavily next year. They thought they had promising young talent and none of it stepped up. Even if they find the talent to fix it there's no guarantee that the league won't change the rules enough to force them into changing their philosophy. It might be better to start planning for a future without getting to cut the defenses legs out from under it. I'm not unhappy with the results this year. I still think I saw progress but at the end of it all I also saw limitations revealed that have to be addressed. I'm ready to see the offense evolve into something other than a copy of the 1998 Broncos being run by a guy with no mobility. I'm ready to see the Texans defense send Barwin to the bench or somewhere else entirely in 2013. His drop-off in performance really hurt us. It's time to fix the Special Teams issues. None of this is going to be terribly hard to resolve if Rick Smith is the GM the Texans seem to think he is. We need to go get a RG in free agency. We need to keep an eye open for a free agent WR. The rest we can draft or will get back when injured players return. We're still kind of young in most spots and we're going to get better. Anyone else want to summarize what they're thinking? I don't want to tell people what they can or can't contribute to this thread but I'm more interested in what you're thinking than what you think about what I said. Try to focus on what you see and not debating others if you don't mind. Just a suggestion.

Re: Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
Only one major comment. Today, more than any other game, Cushing was missed. Lots of runs up the gut where Cushing makes a play that Ruud, et al simply were overmatched, and dragged for extra yards, or tackles completely missed.
It was a massive blow back then, and it came down to roost big time today. I know Schaub is the target right now, but the defense still gave up a ton of yards, points etc. Cushing may have made a huge dent in that. You can't discount the leadership void and talent divide. From the outside looking in, your window is now and the best thing to not do is panic.

Zone blocking is dead. We been figured out by elite staffs. Qb needs an upgrade. Wr needs an upgrade. D is as good as it gets. No really the D is as good as it gets. This is an offense oriented league now

Re: Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
Meh, I'm not going to say ZBS is dead.
That's what happens when you think you can get away with basically starting two rookies on the right side of the line. Getting average play from them is being lucky, forget about hoping they can replace the guys we had on that side...two very good players... EDIT: Maybe they'll be better in the long run, we can hope at least. |

Re: Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
1. Schaub's foot has affected his longevity. He was nails in the first half of the season, but as time wore on...I think the gimpy foot (even though it's "healed") has made it hard for him to move around AND throw--reliably--anything over 15 to 20 yards downfield. No other way to describe his inability to get the ball vertical. That pass was basically removed the past month and a half.
2. Kubiak is stuck. He's loyal, and so he probably genuinely thinks Matt is good-to-go, the thinks Matt just needed to get a feel for playoff football and all that jazz. Experience, I tell ya'! And by golly we'll get 'em next time. It's always NEXT TIME. 3. I am surprised at the anger at Wade Phillips. For about the final 6 games, his defense was put to the test via Gary's offense being unable to sustain drives and put up a lead they could work with. That sort of thing, if sustained over a long period of time, is going to ruin guys in the defense. They're people, too. They have thoughts, too. They wonder to themselves why they are always doing the heavy lifting. Good thing is that they found the Andre Johnson of their defense, JJ WATT, who seemingly gives all-world performances even when everyone else is sort of standing around watching him do it. 4. Connor Barwin shouldn't be in this team. His only role was to contain the edge. I bet 90% of the time he puts two hands on the OL and then backs up and shuffles his feet, watching the QB. If Wade has him playing spy THAT much, then WOW! I might need to reevaluate my opinion of Wade as d-coord. 5. Posey deserves WR2 duties, the whole game. All season. He has proven he can do it, and he moves twice as fast as Walter does. Game over. 6. Defense needs 12 more LBs. Because they got injured all year long. In a 34 defense, the linebacker is King. Our King(s) got tumbled, and our offense couldn't pick up the slack for anything other than the 2nd Titans game which looking back on it, it seems weird that we won so convincingly. This means the Titans are, in deed, VERY bad. 7. Marciano should retire quietly. It took Manning putting the entire ST unit onto his own back in the Patriots playoff game to make something explosive happen for us in the kickoff game. We lost HFA, IMO, when the Colts returned a kickoff on us in the 2nd game. Granted, we won the first Colts game (perhaps) because of Braman's blocked punt that was a TD for us. Still, the penalties and the lack of inspired play and positive, consistent results, was saddening. 8. Manning and Joseph. What is their window? What is there contract situation? I'm scared about this. They are good. We need them forever. Period. 9. Tate. Hope we get a good deal for him, cuz he gone baby gone. I now think he wasn't played for two reasons: Foster wanted it all on his back, which is commendable, and because maybe the Texans FO did NOT want Tate blowing a knee or some other freak accident that harms his trade value. #conspiracy 10. We're at the top of the world with Kubiak. This is what it looks like. And I don't think he can find the next level. And I even think maybe he knows it, too. Shouldn't he? A little? Can he look at things and say "Man, we're GROWING. We're almost there. I'm excited!" Sure not. Probably so? I dunno. I just wish I had some Walking Dead and Boardwalk Empire to watch. I'm a moody muthersucka' right now. LOL. Wife says I'm PMS'ing. Pffft....women!

It was a good season. They peeked at the Chicago game.
Kareem and Watt made huge strides this year. Barwin and Reed were no shows. Foster had a good not great year. He lost that breakaway speed but managed 17 TDs ill take that any year. AJ had his best year yardage wise but the clock is ticking. The other receivers were non factors. Daniels was good not great. Now to Shaub. If he gets behind in an important game he does not have the ability to bring em back. He looked great in the Denver and Ravens game impressive in the Jags and Lions game but down the stretch in our clinching games he was a NO SHOW. And that's concerning. It was a good fun year but the writing was on the wall with 4 weeks left in the season. Till next year. |

What hurts the most: We had two chances at HFA and couldn't do it.
We even had a THIRD chance at HFA, via a Broncos loss to the Ravens in TWO OT periods nonetheless, and we couldn't do it. Three times to get the AFCC game in Houston. Fail. Fail. Fail. That's the ultimate death blow for my hopes and dreams. Inability to suck it up and get it done. That 1 yard is always the toughest.

This team had a very good season. I'm hoping that they learn how to finish a season next year and not peak at week 6.
I honestly expected more injuries, but we got very lucky. Just means that we didn't execute with nearly all the healthy players. This defense right now has 1 playmaker in its front 7 and that scares me with all the draft picks we have in the first and second. This was a fun season, but I don't see a change in the outcome without a #2 WR. |

The minute Cushing went down I knew we werent winning a super bowl. That night we lost Cush I actually felt worse than I do now to be honest.
The great new gents... Is JJ Watt is OURS. That man will keep us above .500 as a team almost by himself. |

Re: Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
I don't trust Kubiak. After deciding that they'd be OK with both right side starters on the OL being scrubs, I don't trust his ability to plan properly. After watching his chosen QB fall apart, I don't trust his flexibility in personnel or scheme. I don't trust his game planning. I don't trust his play calling during the game. I don't trust that he'll put together an offense that scores in the red zone.
I spent all season trying to ignore my distrust of him. It was a good ride, but despite my best efforts to convince myself that this was a Super Bowl team, that GB loss stuck with me. The Pats loss after the couple games prior just convinced me it wasn't going to happen. Still, the best football season in Houston since 1994. Now let's draft a QB.

Re: Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
I'm optomistic about our defense, especially getting Cushing back......and naturally JJ Watt as our foundation player for yrs to come. I'm good with Wade and he's proven that when his team is healthy - they play really well (unless you're playing GB or NE, although Cushing was out for these 2).
I'm pessimistic about our offense for numerous reasons - the number one reason is Matt Schaub. I don't think he can lead us thru the playoffs and to the Superbowl, let alone win it. He does not have the leadership, can't read defenses, has a weak arm and thus can't throw the deep ball for homerun explosive plays, over/under throws constantly, throws critical picks in big games, he is so immobile/uncoordinated it is quite pathetic, he's inconsistent and has nothing at all that resembles killer instinct. The other reasons I'm pessimistic on O is at Wide receiver and running back...our number one WR is getting up in age and we don't have a legitimate # 2 WR, and Posey's now hurt. We dont have a legit # 2 running back. Even if you argue tate is - most agree he can't stay healthy or out of kube's dog house.....and he's probably gone. Lastly, our O-line issues and Kubiak play calling. I'm just not sure we can get to and win a SB with MS and Kubiak. Period. You got to win now before the new set of Tom Bradys and Peyton Mannings shut the door on you.....like perhaps Luck or Colin Kap or a healthy RG3...... Houston is wasting the careers of AJ, AF, OD, JJW etc....... We used to have a great offense - but no defense. Now we have a good defense, but no offense..........

Re: Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
Houston we have a Schaublem, he's just not going to get it done, and Kubiak has to change his style to get it done. After listening to his post game comments though I'm convinced we won't get it done under him.
Was a good season, but when it really comes to the top teams in the NFL, we just can't consistently beat them.

I think this team has gone as far as it can with this offense and this QB. I think Kubiak could make this a more dynamic offense with a more dynamic QB. The Shannys did in Washington. So I'm not ready to pull the plug on Kubiak (and it wouldn't matter if I was, he's not going anywhere). But this isn't getting any better with the current cast.
I think the defense needs to change some, as well. Smaller, quicker LBs with bigger, stronger DBs. Dump the overpriced guys who are not producing (Barwin, Cody, maybe Smith) for hungrier, younger players. Fresh blood is required. The biggest mistake of the 2012 season was the Schaub extension. Wasn't necessary. He was never going to be a hot item in free agency. There was no need to not wait until the offseason. That contract will haunt this team for at least 2 years.

Re: Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
This team had a great year. 13-5 a'int nothing to be ashamed of. But improvements must be made. And thats why this draft is so crucial. Get used to Matt Shaub because he is paid for the next couple of years. Accumulate weapons around him, and hope for a 2000 Ravens Trent Dilfer. This defense has shone early, then crashed when playing good talent like tonight's game. Like I said, evaluations have to be made, and I think that starts with not resigning Connor Barwin. I like the guy, but another team will overpay for him and we simply cannot afford that.

Re: Well, that's a wrap. 2012 season final thoughts
We need a legit RT and its not too early to start looking for a LG to replace Wade Smith he did not play at a pro bowl level even if he was selected.
We have to get a better pass rush from the OLB positions whether its from someone on the roster or an addition in the draft/free agency. JJ Watt will probably never have 20.5 sacks again and you can't expect it either. WR whether that player is on the roster or we acquire him he not only has to play, but Matt has got to feel confident enough to throw him the ball. If our WR become more balanced that will make AJ more effective and give the defense that much more of the field to defend. We need a true FB. Casey while he is a good receiver he is not the hammer that we had in Leach and the running game was not as dependable the past 2yrs as it was in 2010. It was a huge red flag that late in the year 3rd and 2 became a passing down with one of the best RB's in football in your backfield. Getting Cushing back will be huge but we need another thumper at ILB to stop the run. Bradie James was not that guy and he was so bad in coverage when Cushing went down that we had a guy off the street playing Nickel/Dime LB late in the year. In the draft we have to look at DL as well. Antonio Smith is in his 30's now and has one year left on his deal. I don't see the Texans signing him to another deal at the money he is making now at his age. Crick could be a productive player next year and beyond, but it never hurts to have competition at a premium position like DL. Special Teams were ****ing terrible this year. The return game was non existent except for today, and we gave up 2 kickoff returns and 1 punt return td this year. That is way too many for a team trying to win a championship. I will be shocked if there is not a new coach in place for next season.

I have a bunch of Chicagoans that always ask me about the Texans because I lived in Houston despite my Cowboy background. I told them all the same thing 2 months back and on...if the Texans get home field they will get to the SB because it will be tough to beat them there. If they go to Baltimore, NE, Denver, etc, its over. I'll give you names. That has always been my opinion. Thought they blew a perfect window this year. JMO.

Marciano needs to go and they need to bring in a focus on improving all aspects of the special teams, including getting rid of Graham and his inaccurate leg from over 50 yards (I was actually shocked when he got that 55 yarder today). |

As I walked into the room with my new attractive boyfreind, whom I spent most of my time with nowdays, I could help but feel "mean-mugged" by my ex-boyfreind, Brooks, who was drowning his sorrows in alcohol at the end of the bar, becuase he was recently fired from his job, and has resorted to selling cheap elevators in Boston.

Inaugural Eunice Kennedy Shriver Challenge, Presented by Audi, Raises $1.2 Million in Total Donations for Best Buddies International and Special Olympics International
David Archuleta, Chris Brown, Michelle Kwan, Carl Lewis and Miss Teen USA Joined 700 Participants to Raise Awareness for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities and Celebrate the Life and Work of Eunice Kennedy Shriver
Washington, D.C.---Seven hundred people both, with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities, participated in the inaugural Eunice Kennedy Shriver Challenge, presented by Audi, in the nation's capital on Saturday, October 23. The Challenge, which featured a 20-mile cycling event, 5K run, 3K walk, the Chris Brown Youth Fun Run and tandem bike races, raised $1.2 million for Best Buddies International and Special Olympics International.
The Challenge was held in honor of the legacy of Eunice Kennedy Shriver, to foster greater acceptance and inclusion for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Ted Leonsis, Internet pioneer, philanthropist, filmmaker, author, and owner of the Washington Capitals and Washington Wizards, along with his Best Buddy, Ken Holden, a six-time Special Olympics medalist, were co-chairs of this historic event.In addition to the hundreds of Best Buddies participants and Special Olympics athletes that took part in the event, celebrity supporters, Shriver family members and friends of Eunice Kennedy Shriver were also on hand to celebrate her life's work. Among those in attendance:
• David Archuleta, 19/Jive Recording Artist, sounded the starting horn for the day's first race and closed out the event with a live concert at the post-race awards luncheon.
• Carl Lewis, 9-time Olympic Gold Medalist and Best Buddies International Board Member, led the Carl Lewis Challenge, a 5K walk and a 3K run.
• Chris Brown, pop star, performed an inspiring rendition of the "National Anthem," and led the Chris Brown Youth Fun Run (1K walk/run.)
• Michelle Kwan, 5-time World Figure Skating Champion, U.S. Public Diplomacy Envoy and member of the President's Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition congratulated and presented awards to Best Buddies, Special Olympics and youth participants as part of Closing Ceremonies.
• Washington, D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty led the 20-mile ride, (coming in first place.)
• Anthony K. Shriver, Founder and Chairman of Best Buddies International and Timothy Shriver, Chairman and CEO of Special Olympics, participated in several of the day's events, including the 20-mile ride and the Friendship Races, in honor of their mother's legacy.
• Johan de Nysschen, President, Audi of America, the event's title sponsor, led a team of 60 employees from the company's headquarters, which raised the most money and finished first in the Corporate Challenge Friendship Race.
• Other notable attendees and participants included: Bobby Julich, Tour de France cyclist; Christian Vande Velde, Tour de France cyclist; Kamie Crawford, Miss Teen USA; and Simone Feldman, Miss Maryland.
The day culminated with Friendship Races, where many of the event's celebrities teamed-up with Best Buddies participants and Special Olympic athletes to compete on tandem bicycles. At the finish line, the celebrity riders posed for pictures and signed autographs. The day concluded with a luncheon, awards ceremony and star-studded concert for all participants and special guests.
For more than five decades, Eunice Kennedy Shriver worked to break down barriers and improve the lives of millions of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities around the world. More than 200 million people worldwide have intellectual and developmental disabilities, making this the largest disability group in the world.

Unique top!
I very much liked this top because it was unique. I am between an XS and S in Limited tops and ordered this in an XS and it fit great.

Conversation Starter
Really interesting sweater. Love the fact that it's a little loose...needed for my muffin top!
Wore it to work and everyone asked if I was wearing the top backwards. As long as you don't mind answering that several times a day - the top is great. Looks good with skinny jeans.
May 12, 2013
This is a nice sweater with a lovely back. I got my normal size, and it works well. I have already worn it and washed it according to the care tag, and had no problems. I definitely recommend.
April 21, 2013
A very unique style
the styling of this sweater was very unique and different. I loved the draping at the back, the length and material used. There was no clinging and had a very attractive overall look. Best worn with slim fitting pants.
April 11, 2013
Not as great
Ok this shirt was really pretty online but when I got it in the mail, I thought about wash, wear and donate. The material was nothing like I thought. It was more sweater type which means it will look not as good in the future. I would have used a polyester type of material to with stand wash and years to come. I love the idea, but sometimes 2 different materials can cause a 1 piece of the shirt to look worn over a period of time. The white area would hold up well but the black sweater type wouldn't.
April 10, 2013
I want it in more colors!
Love this sweater- relaxed and comfy but professional and work wear appropriate- I wish they made it in more colors!
March 30, 2013
Classy Top
I love this top!!! The tulip opening in the back is soooo classy and it looks perfect with skinny jeans/pants! The perfect party top. The material is thin, so it's good for the spring weather. It does fit a bit larger than what your normal size is, but this is the type of top that shouldn't fit you closely. This is my favorite recent purchase!!!
March 25, 2013
Pretty, Unique Piece
This piece is one that you might not give a second look...but you should. The tulip back and exposed ivory trim on the bottom of this sweater makes for a really beautiful top. It's subtly sexy actually, and very unique. I think this is one that you could really dress up or down. I usually wear an XS at Limited, and this one fit true to size.

For the dining room. This is before the crystals have been cleaned and all the bits carefully re-attached. |
To say the past weekend was delightful would be a major understatement. We had a glorious time thanks to our hosts and their charming children (and six-month-old puppy, Gibson).
For some time I have been asking -- begging (?) -- my great blog pal, Sharon Santoni, to take me to a brocante with her. I was hoping to find a chandelier to give to Drea and Will (daughter and son-in-law) for their new house as their big Christmas present.
Run, do not walk -- it's a metaphor -- to see what Sharon has in her brocante stop, click here .
Sharon, expert in these matters, cautioned me not to be disappointed if on my first time out I couldn't find my heart's desire.
My sweet cake dish. |
You cannot see the tiny chip on the top side of the plate. Note the small "pedestal." |
The weekend was fun from the minute we arrived until we packed our car and headed home. The Santonis had a little dinner party with divine food and it seems to me I had a magic wine glass. It was never empty and I never saw it being filled. I mention this only because normally I drink in moderation and sometimes not at all and that had been my intention, mainly because the plan was to set out at 5-ish Sunday morning. We finally tucked into bed at 2:30/3-ish, but, wine or no wine, I was at my post, flashlight in hand at the appointed hour for departure.
When we arrived, the venders were unpacking their wares as we and the professionals -- antique dealers -- started "helping" them unwrap what everyone always hopes will be a once-in-a-lifetime find.
Much smaller and to be hung flush against the ceiling. Again, in perfect condition and yet to be polished. |
As we headed back to the car with my small purchase and a lovely cake dish Sharon said I should buy, I was consoling myself about not finding the object of my mission. But there it was! Perfect in every detail, not one piece missing, not a chip on a single crystal and, it was agreed all around, an exquisite 19th chandelier.
The man had two. I bought one. I should have bought two, but I'm still a novice at this game. I could do this again and again.
I have an addictive personality, it has been demonstrated time and time again when I'm faced with chocolate, champagne, fresh raspberries, cherries, and more. Now I'm thinking despite the fact I detest slipping out of bed at 5-ish, I could definitely get addicted to this new treasure hunt.
Merci Sharon.

(If you're here after reading that interview with WordPress, then I apologize. You were mislead. Although being complimented for a witty writing style is uh, a compliment, it's also an absolute falsehood. If anything, I inconsistently post about camels, and brunches, and make references to bands I hope only a select few with understand. You've been warned.)
It might be Monday. No wait, it's definitely Thursday. There's probably no sense in trying to remember. You're drinking to forget it, anyways.
The area doesn't matter. Downtown bars, an overworked financial district, that shady alleyway between your favourite barbeque place and your wife's most recent hair dresser. You're not going to a "bar district" or really, a place with any sort of atmosphere at all for that matter. You're choosing a bar based on its proximity between work and home. Halfway is ideal but being particular is not of this time. By now, the only decision you'll be making is choosing between the blue and red plastic picnic sets which can comfortably seat about four but will inevitably be crowded with the entire accounting department before the night's end.
You loosen your tie. It has small rhinestones sewn into its diagonal pattern. It was a present from your wife's mother. The baby pink is a little much but you wear it anyways. You still don't know if it was a thoughtful gift from the in-laws or a malicious attempt to make you look more feminine in your buddies' iPhone pictures. Soon, you'll be too drunk to care.
Given it's a weeknight/ weekend/ any day at all, drinking is not something that is eased into. But it's not a race either. It's a matter of fact activity. And it has to be done.
You're comfortable with your position at the table. Not nearly the oldest but middle-rung enough that others still (falsely) believe you to have seniority. This works wonders in the office but becomes truly beneficial during these post-work gatherings. Strategically, you have placed yourself next to the company's newest hire. You know for a fact you're 5 years his senior. He is a recent microbiology engineering graduate. This is his first benefits included, I'm-already-regretting-this, full-time gig. What this basically means is he's attentive, goal-driven, and eager to please. He'll do anything to secure his spot among the thrones of the picnic table seat of state. He foolishly believes that he has a future in middle management. You don't have to fill your glass once because of this.
Grilled pieces of meat are ordered and cooked. Garlic cloves, red pepper paste, a couple sides of kimchi. Wrapped together in sesame leaves, you pop golf ball-sized portions into your mouth two at a time. Hmm, golf. That doesn't sound like such a bad idea. You present the option of a round of simulation golf once the meal is finished. With Korea having the largest population of indoor golf centers in the world, you know there has got to be a joint around here somewhere.
The idea quickly becomes fleeting as three green branded bottles are brought to the table. Soju. There's no point in trying to describe this beverage as "something like vodka but worse." It translates literally to burnt alcohol, and most who consume it drift into this delayed catatonic state of uselessness and incapability. It will take about 30 minutes for the effects to truly set in but until then, you feel content, rosy, and yearning for another.
There are a group of foreigners at the adjoining table. They've chosen this spot because the pretzels are the freshest in the neighbourhood. They haven't eaten dinner and will probably just continue to snack on these salty twines because the waitress is so damn attentive and refuses to catch glimpse of the bottom of the bowl. The same goes with the pints.
Your English skills are still pretty admirable, considering you're on your fourth pint. You ask where they're from and then enthusiastically tell them all about your 2-day visit to Niagara Falls when they reply "Canada." They nod in politeness. But suddenly they are speaking too fast. Like clockwork, the effects of soju have hit and your brain can no longer conjugate the verb "be." Your fingers aren't much help either as you attempt to translate simple conversational questions on your phone.
They become disinterested. You become insufferable.
Time passes and you're stumbling into the bathroom with three of your buddies. Strength in numbers, right?
Someone has to catch the last subway home. The new hire is too heavily engaged in a fast-paced texting conversation which you believe, judging from the amount of heart emoticons being sent back-and-forth, to be his girlfriend. Your glass is empty.
You search for your own phone and fumble with the attached microchip. The occupation of key-cutter has long been phased out since the introduction of key codes and plastic chips. This serves as a key to your home and the ultimate access to your bed. It slips through your fingers once more. Why did they make these so ridiculously small? You open your Galaxy III or Universe I or whatever phone has now been marketed as the smartest. It does more than just tell the time, but that's all you really need it for right now. 3:23 AM. Shit.
Your co-workers pile into cabs. Some pausing to release the contents of their stomachs before making the journey home. You dodge piles of red and pink as you cross the street and hail your own.
You lean your head back on the fancy pleather interior of the taxi. You mentally prepare yourself for tomorrow's work day. You have already justified the purchase of one of those overpriced hangover-cure drinks that leave your teeth coated in sugar and your gut too rotted to remember the fact that you have just spent the last four hours filling it with burnt alcohol.
You crack your eyes open just in time to see your apartment building pass by. Shrieking loudly, the cab driver halts and demands the fare. You're home.

Privacy Policies
Health Insurance Portablility and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
A new Federal law, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), establishes new requirements for hospitals regarding how they use and share patient information. The law became effective on April 14, 2003.
Palmetto Health maintains a directory containing the name and location of patients who have elected to be included. Upon admission to Palmetto Health, patients are asked if they would like to be included in the directory. The directory allows family, friends and possibly clergy who ask for you by name to be given your room number when they call or visit the hospital. HIPAA law prohibits hospitals from providing information about patients who have chosen not to be in the patient directory. This also applies to patients who have not yet had the opportunity to authorize their inclusion in the directory. If a patient elects not to be included in the directory, individuals who inquire will be told, "We have no information about that person."
If a person seeking information about a patient has been told, "We have no information about that person," it is suggested that they contact an immediate family member of the patient for information.
Flowers or cards sent to a patient who is not listed in the patient directory will not be delivered unless they include the patient's name and room number as this could be construed as an acknowledgment that the person is a patient in the hospital. Additionally, patients not listed in the patient directory will be unable to receive phone calls made through the hospital switchboard.
For additional details, including how patient medical information may be used or disclosed and how a patient can access their medical information, click here to read Joint Notice of Privacy Practices or click the links below to access the following forms. Please send/mail a copy of a Photo ID with Authorization Form. Copy Service fees are applicable. For additional information, call 803-296-5865.
As a patient in our Joint Commission accredited health care facility, you have many rights that we are committed to protecting and promoting. Whenever possible, we will inform you of your rights in advance of furnishing or discontinuing your care. Your rights include the following:
1. To have the staff promptly notify a family member/representative and your physician of your admission to the health care facility.
2. To considerate and respectful care, and to give us feedback about your care. You have the right to personal dignity.
3. To have your cultural, psychosocial, spiritual and personal values, beliefs and preferences respected. You have the right to wear appropriate personal clothing and religious or other symbolic items, as long as they do not interfere with diagnostic procedures or treatment. You have the right to pastoral and other spiritual services.
4. To participate in the development and implementation of your plan of care, and to know the identity and professional status of those involved in your care, including if the care giver is a student or trainee or is professionally associated with other individuals or health care institutions involved in your care.
5. To make informed decisions about your care, treatment and services. This includes being informed of your health status: being involved—prior to and during the course of treatment—in your care planning and treatment, being informed as to all proposed technical procedures and treatment—including the potential benefit(s) and potential drawback(s) or risk(s) as well as alternatives for care, being able to request or refuse medically appropriate treatment to the extent permitted by law and health care facility policy, and to be informed of the medical consequences of such action. If you refuse a recommended treatment, you will receive other medically needed, indicated and available care.
6. To formulate an advance directive (such as a Living Will or Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care) with the expectation that the staff and practitioners will honor the directive to the extent permitted by law and Palmetto Health policy. If you have a written advance directive, you should provide a copy to the health care facility, your family and your doctor. These documents express your choices about your future care or name someone for you if you cannot speak for yourself.
7. To expect that, within capacity and policies, the health care facility will make a reasonable response to any patient's request for appropriate and medically indicated care and services, including the management of pain. Our health care facility is committed to providing individuals impartial access to treatment or accommodations that are available or medically indicated, regardless of race, creed, sex, national origin, or sources of payment for care.
8. If requested or if medically appropriate and legally permissible, you may be transferred to another facility after being informed about the need for, risks, benefits, and alternatives to transfer. You will not be transferred until the other facility agrees to accept you and you agree to transfer.
9. To personal privacy, to receive care in a safe setting, and to be free from all forms of abuse or harassment. You have the right to refuse to talk with or see anyone not officially connected with the health care facility, including visitors, or people officially connected with the health care facility but not directly involved in your care. You have the right to expect that any discussion or consultation involving your care will be conducted discreetly and that individuals not directly involved in your care will not be present without your permission. You have the right to be interviewed and examined in surroundings designed to assure reasonable visual and auditory privacy. This includes having the right to have a person of one's own sex present during certain parts of a physical examination, treatment or procedure performed by a health professional of the opposite sex and the right not to remain disrobed any longer than is required for accomplishing the medical purpose for which disrobing is needed.
10. To access people outside of the health care facility by means of visitors and by verbal and written communication, as long as it does not interfere with treatment.
11. If you do not speak or understand the predominant language of the community, access to an interpreter can be provided.
12. To be free from restraints of any form that are not medically necessary. For behavior management, all patients have the right to be free from seclusion and restraints except in the case of an emergency, when there is an imminent risk of an individual physically harming himself/herself or others, and less restrictive interventions would be ineffective.
13. To confidentiality of your clinical records, except in such cases as suspected abuse or public health hazards and/or when reporting is permitted or required by law. You have the right to have your medical record read only by individuals directly involved in your treatment or in the monitoring of quality. Other individuals can only read your medical record on your written authorization or that of your legally authorized representative. You have the right to expect all communications and other records pertaining to your care, including the source of payment for treatment, to be treated as confidential.
14. To access information contained in your clinical records within a reasonable time frame, and to have the information explained or interpreted as necessary, except when restricted by law and/or as long as it does not interfere with treatment.
15. To know if this health care facility has relationships with other health care facilities, educational institutions or other outside parties that may influence your care.
16. To consent or decline to take part in research affecting your care. If you choose not to take part, you will receive the most effective care the health care facility otherwise provides.
17. To examine and receive an explanation of your bill, regardless of source of payment. You have the right to know about payment methods. At your request and your expense, you have the right to consult with a medical specialist.
18. To expect reasonable continuity of care when appropriate and to be informed of realistic care alternatives when the health care facility services are no longer appropriate.
19. To be informed of the health care facility policies and practices that relate to your care, treatment and responsibilities. You have the right to know about the health care facility resources, such as patient representatives, patient complaints and grievance processes, or ethics committees, that can help you promptly resolve problems and questions about the health care facility services.
20. To ask questions about the care you are receiving. Contact your nurse, or if you wish for your nurse to contact your physician, a call will be placed to that physician or to the physician who is covering your care that day. If requested, the nurse will provide a telephone number for your physician and can assist you with making the call. You have the right to know who is involved in your care. Every caregiver at Palmetto Health will be wearing an identification badge clearly stating his or her name, department and job or title.
21. To voice a concern about your stay and be involved in resolving dilemmas about care, treatment and services. Your concerns are very important to us and we would appreciate the opportunity to resolve them. If you have a concern/grievance, please speak with the staff or request to speak with the unit/department supervisor/manager. If you would rather express the concern/grievance to a patient liaison, call the appropriate number at the bottom of this notice. Staff are available to assist you anytime during your stay and will seek prompt resolution to your concern/grievance. If you want to contact an outside agency before the hospital representative, you may also contact the Department of Health and Environmental Control, 2600 Bull Street, Columbia, SC (803)898-3432, and/or The Carolinas Center for Medical Excellence, 246 Stoneridge Drive, Suite 200, Columbia, SC 29210, (803)251-2215 or (800)922-3089.

3. Speaking Up—Asking questions when you do not understand what you have been told about your diagnosis, medical tests, treatment plan, medications, care or what you are expected to do.
4. Participating in decisions about your treatment and following the care, service or treatment plan developed.

Every effort is made to adapt the plan to your specific needs and limitations.

Super-grandpa: BMW's most powerful bikes gain an extra 136cc
Article Summary
Whatever else could be said about the K1200 series BMWs, they could never have been accused of lacking power. The 168hp K1200R naked, for example, was the most powerful production naked going around, and by a considerable margin, until yesterday's announcement that BMW were re-building the S, R, and GT models with an extra 136cc, upping the power and particularly the torque to 175hp and 103 ft-lbs for 2009. Incremental improvements are found all over the bikes as well - including (finally) a standard single indicator switch, ironing out an annoyance that has plagued BMW buyers for decades.

This item ships within one business day.
Ah, the good ol' days - phones were attached to the wall with a cord and worked even when the power went out, popcorn was popped in a skillet on the stove, and when the President was addressing the nation, he was on all three TV channels! Some things have changed for the better, but there's still something comforting about getting back to the basics. Do you remember when they made T-shirts with slub fabric? They had a slight irregularity in the yarn produced by knotting, twisting or including uneven lengths of fiber in the spinning process. They were just as soft and comfortable as the shirts made today that have "technology" in their title. Take a trip down memory lane with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish Scrum Basic long sleeve tee from '47 Brand! The cotton slub material and printed vintage Irish graphics will take you back in time to a simpler time even while you're texting the kids to let them know where you're setting up the tailgate!

OAKLAND -- After more than a decade of failing to meet a federal judge's order to reform its police department, Oakland became the first U.S. city Wednesday to willfully surrender authority over its command staff to a court-appointed director.
The federal officer, whose official title will be compliance director, would have wide ranging powers to force Oakland to fully comply with a decade-old reform plan that settled the infamous Riders police brutality scandal.
The agreement, which still must be approved by a federal judge, will not displace Oakland's current police brass.
However, in order to ensure that the reforms are pushed through, the federal officer will have the power to fire Chief Howard Jordan, overrule him on major decisions, demote his command staff and order expenditures of up to $250,000.
The compliance director's powers are far more broad than those of a current federal monitoring team, which only reports on the department's progress in achieving reforms.
The agreement includes several major concessions by city leaders to two civil rights attorneys who represented victims of the Riders in an $11 million civil case and negotiated the reform plan that was designed to bring accountability to a department dogged by racial profiling and brutality scandals.
The city had initially proposed that the compliance director have no authority to spend city money or discipline the command staff.
"It's really up to the city how much federal control there will be," attorney Jim Chanin said. "If they can't deliver (on the reforms), we now have someone who will deliver."
U.S. District Court Judge Thelton Henderson had scheduled a hearing for next Thursday to consider potentially even stricter federal oversight of the police department. Oakland officials said Wednesday they expect Henderson to instead consider the settlement agreement at the hearing.
City leaders said the agreement safeguards city finances by restricting the compliance director's spending power and lets them work in partnership with the director, rather than ceding total control of the department.
"The city can help shape the new police department," Jordan said. "This will help move our department into the 21st century."
Mayor Jean Quan said she didn't anticipate the federal compliance director frequentlyoverruling Jordan. "This is something we want for Oakland," she said. "We have a stake in making this work."
The Riders case involved four officers accused of beating up and framing drug suspects in West Oakland and then writing false reports to hide their transgressions.
In settling the civil case, the city agreed in 2003 to make 51 reforms to help the department better police itself. But the department's progress was slow from the start. This year, the federal monitoring team said police had stalled on key tasks such as tracking problem officers, reporting the use of force and performing internal affairs investigations.
And despite the reform effort, the department has continued to face scandals and lawsuits that have cost Oakland an estimated $46 million over the past decade, more than four times as much as San Jose.
The settlement agreement nearly mirrors the proposal Chanin and attorney John Burris sought from Henderson earlier this year. The major difference is that the federal officer won't be a "receiver," which typically command broad budgetary authority.
"We wanted greater oversight of the department," Burris said. "We're just going to call it something else."
The city would have to pay the compliance director's salary.
The director would not have power to change the police union's contract. Any move to fire the chief or demote a deputy could be appealed with the matter going to Henderson.
The director would be required to get the city to complete the reforms by the end of 2013.
The director also would set benchmarks for making progress and reducing problem areas for the department, including racial profiling, use of force cases and incidents of officers pointing their firearms at minority residents.
