Universities with Master's Degrees in Structural Engineering: How to Choose
Students interested in a structural engineering career may pursue either a Master of Science or a Master of Engineering in the field. The Master of Science program prepares students for a range of careers within structural engineering; the Master of Engineering program puts students on track to becoming a professional, licensed civil engineer. Most schools require about 30 credit hours of coursework and the completion of an engineering project, thesis or series of final exams.
How to Select a Structural Engineering School
Those who are looking to earn a master's degree in structural engineering may be awarded a Master of Science or a Master of Engineering. Programs are available through the engineering departments of 4-year universities and technology institutes.
Summary of Important Considerations
- Types of degrees
- Course topics
- Concentrations
- Thesis options
Types of Degrees
Students interested in structural engineering should look for schools offering the type of master's degree program that will be most useful to their career goals. The Master of Science in Structural Engineering program offers students a background in civil engineering with a focus on the structural aspects. Students in this program can pursue a career as a practicing engineer but may also want to work in other areas in the structural engineering field, such as structural health monitoring. Those interested in a professional degree that is made up almost entirely of classes pertaining specifically to becoming a structural engineer and licensure preparation may want to pursue a Master of Engineering in Structural Engineering.
Course Topics
Structural engineering programs that lead to either a Master of Science or Master of Engineering cover a broad spectrum of topics within structural engineering. Students want to choose a program that trains them in design, analysis, mechanics and structural behavior among other topics. Programs should teach students how to work with a variety of structures, such as bridges, dams and buildings, and how the environment affects and interacts with these structures.
Students may want to pursue programs that allow them to choose a specialization. Prognosis, simulation and mechanics are a few options that students may select as a concentration.
Thesis Options
Schools with programs that offer a thesis option for the Master of Science may appeal to students who eventually want to earn a Ph.D. in engineering. Students who do not want to complete a thesis may choose a program that culminates with a series of final examinations. Many programs offer both options for students who have not yet decided if they would like to do a thesis or final exams.
Structural Engineering Program Overviews
Master of Science in Structural Engineering
Most program participants hold a bachelor's degree in engineering. Some programs admit students with degrees in other areas but may require additional courses to supplement the student's background. Students complete approximately 15 credit hours of study in structural and civil engineering courses. Students may also be required to take math-oriented courses. Topics of study for the structural engineering program include:
- Structure dynamics
- Prestressed concrete
- Bridge structures
- Earthquake engineering
- Random vibrations
Master of Engineering in Structural Engineering
The Master of Engineering in Structural Engineering program focuses on preparing students for professional practice as a structural engineer. Students graduating from the program may seek licensure (P.E). Licensure requirements may vary by state and information can be found on the NCEES (National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying) website (www.ncees.org).
Programs often encourage or require students to minor in a subject with professional emphasis. The degree requires about 30 credit hours of coursework. At the end of most programs, students complete a structural engineering project, often accompanied by a report or presentation. Individuals may take courses in:
- High-performance structures
- Modeling and analysis of structure
- Project management
- Structural mechanics

Beijing Hyundai Motor Co., Ltd. is an automobile manufacturing company headquartered in Beijing, China, and is joint-venture between Beijing Automotive Group and Hyundai Motor Company. Established in 2002, it manufactures in Shunyi District, a satellite city of Beijing,[2] producing Hyundai-branded automobiles for the Chinese market.
2014 saw the company sell 1,120,000 vehicles.[3] Were it not a subsidiary such sales figures would have placed it as the sixth or seventh most-productive Chinese automaker. It did make the third most-purchased model in 2010 in China, the Elantra.[4]
In May 2002, Hyundai Motor and the Beijing Automotive Group signed a memorandum of understanding with the aim of creating a joint venture based around an existing Beijing factory. Hyundai begun to improve the plant's installations,[5] and on 18 October 2002 an equally owned joint venture between the two companies was established. While it was not the first arrangement between a foreign and a domestic automaker, Beijing Hyundai was the first to be approved by the Chinese government after its entry into the World Trade Organisation.[6] Beijing Hyundai initially expanded its production output through importation of key parts from South Korea and the creation of an integrated, Korean-owned supply network inside China.[7][8] As of 2012, average per year production since 2003 stands at roughly 370,000 vehicles,[9] but yearly output has grown over the lifetime of the project.[3]
At least four Hyundai models have been solely sold on the Chinese market. These are: BT01, indigenously designed; Lingxiang (Chinese: 领翔), an interior-and-feature localized Sonata NF; Elantra Yuedong, a localized version of the Elantra; and Verna, a city car.[10] All are tailored to Chinese tastes. The 5th generation Elantra is sold in China as the Langdong,[11] but little localization is likely to have occurred.
Shouwang brand[edit]
Cheaper[12] products may be sold under a new, China-only brand name, Shouwang.[13] A concept vehicle was shown at car shows in China in 2011 and 2012, but the brand does not appear to have been launched.[14]
Production bases and facilities[edit]
As of 2013, the company has at least three production bases[11] as well as an R&D center, all of which are probably in the Linhe Industrial Development Zone of the Shunyi District, a satellite city of Beijing.[15] Two of these produce automobiles and the other, engines.[15]
Its first automobile production base was completed in 2003 and the second in April 2008.[16] Construction on a third Beijing base begun in late 2010 should be complete in the second half of 2012.[17] At least one of these facilities is 17 km from Shunyi Yangzhen.[18]

SkyProductions saidBahaha! Are red paws not really invited?? Cuz I'd be screwed! No way would I be above red by then!
I could make it to Nashville…. Of course I'm only a red paw so I don't know if I'm invited really
Thank goodness!
Nashville is just 600 miles away from where I'm staying, I will keep an eye on this topic for sure If my paw is good enough of course!
United Paws of Envato! All paws very welcome!

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Kevin Harvick won the first race of Speedweeks, dominating the final two segments of the exhibition Sprint Unlimited in the debut of NASCAR's new Gen-6 car.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Brad Keselowski strolled through the Daytona 500 Club with his cellphone in one hand and a half-empty bottle in the other.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Rusty Wallace touched on his early days trying to make it as a professional race car driver, the lessons he learned from NASCAR's pioneers and his relentless push to drive for Roger Penske in an energetic acceptance into the Hall of Fame.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - New cars, same results at Daytona International Speedway.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Danica Patrick's talking about challenges that lay ahead, Clint Bowyer and Jeff Gordon aren't saying whether they have patched their differences, and Brad Keselowski is eager to defend his Sprint Cup title.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - NASCAR's newest team owner bought into its premier series with every intention of building a competitive team.

HOMESTEAD, Fla. - Brad Keselowski got some help on the last day of practice for NASCAR's Sprint Cup season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Pole sitter Joey Logano was involved in a three-car accident during the first of two practice sessions Saturday, switched to a backup car and will start from the rear of the field Sunday.
HOMESTEAD - Joey Logano wants an apology from Jeff Gordon, and Clint Bowyer is so angry with Gordon, he won't even discuss the now very public feud.
NASCAR had a real dilemma on its hands with this whole Jeff Gordon mess hanging over the season finale.
AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) - It would have been easy for Brad Keselowski to wreck Jimmie Johnson at the end of last week's race at Texas Motor Speedway.

Release Date:
October 9, 2007
Milos Forman's adaptation of the tribal rock musical Hair stars John Savage as Claude, a quiet young man from the Midwest who becomes friendly with a group of New York hippies on his way to begin basic training in the military. The repressed Claude is quite taken with Berger (Treat Williams) and the group of freedom seekers who reside in Central Park. The group encourages Claude to go after a debutante named Sheila (Beverly D'Angelo). Legendary choreographer Twyla Tharp masterminded the dances, which attempt to flow from the natural settings of the film. The film includes most of the more famous songs from the original play, including "Donna," "Aquarius," "Easy to Be Hard," "Let the Sunshine In," "Good Morning Starshine," and the title number. Perry Seibert, Rovi
Broadway's celebratory musical about rejection makes it to the screen in a fizzless adaptation by Richard Attenborough that misses the whole point of the Broadway show -- i.e. the dancing and the dancers. Instead, the dancers become a limp Greek chorus for the dead love affair between a choreographer, Zach (a pre-Gordon Gekko Michael Douglas) and his old flame, Cassie (Alyson Reed) the star dancer. Zach is holding try-outs for a new Broadway musical and, as armies of dancers are brought on stage to audition for Zach, he sits in the darkened recesses of the theater, puffing on a cigarette, as he winnows out hopeful dancers who want to become part of the chorus line for Zach's new show. Finally, Zach has reduced the dancers to 16 men and women, and he asks each of them to step to the footlights and tell him about their lives and their dreams. But backstage, while the dancers are confessing their pasts to Zach, Zach's past walks through the stage door. Cassie, Zach's ex-lover, whom Zach met, courted and broke up with in the theatrical environs, has returned. Once a big star, Cassie has returned to the theater -- not to see Zach but to audition for Zach's musical. She needs the work. Paul Brenner, Rovi
The public and private lives of famed songwriter Cole Porter are both explored in this musical drama, in which the aging Porter (played by Kevin Kline) looks back on his life while watching a rehearsal of a stage musical based on his story. As Porter compares notes on the play with director Gabe (Jonathan Pryce), he shares thoughts on his rise to fame in the mid-'20s, writing witty and sophisticated tunes for a string of successful Broadway musicals. Porter seemed to be living a charmed life when he met Linda Thomas (Ashley Judd), a beautiful American woman who, like Porter, was enjoying a sojourn in Paris following the collapse of her first marriage. Thomas is immediately taken with Porter, whose intelligence and charm is a welcome change after her brutal first husband, and the two discover they share a remarkable understanding of one another. Porter and Thomas marry, even though she's aware that her new husband is gay; Thomas is willing to forgive Porter's indiscretions with other men in favor of the emotional support he brings her. However, as the years wear on and the couple takes up residence in Hollywood as Porter begins writing tunes for motion pictures, Thomas finds Porter drifting away from her as his liaisons become more frequent and more serious. Then tragedy enters their life when Porter loses the use of his legs in a riding accident and Thomas is diagnosed with cancer. De-Lovely features a number of noted pop singers interpreting classic songs from Porter's catalog, including Diana Krall, Sheryl Crow, Alanis Morissette, Elvis Costello, Robbie Williams, Mick Hucknall, and others. Mark Deming, Rovi

Scott Carpenter was one of the Mercury 7, and more of a bad ass than Chris Carpenter. Thought you good people should know that.
Originally written on Fox Sports Midwest | Last updated 6/29/14
PHILADELPHIA Don't count out these St. Louis Cardinals. They don't know when to call it a season. "This club was hit by a lot of stuff the first four months of the season," said manager Tony La Russa. "The guys just decided we were going to play every game like it's Game 7 of the World Series, and they did it every day for six weeks." And they aren't stopping yet. With Chris Carpenter pitching the first 1-0 complete game of his professional career on Friday night, the Cardinals survived a Game 5 showdown with a Philadelphia team that won more games than any team this year, and advanced to the NL Championship Series for the first time since 2006. They open the best-of-seven showdown with NL Central champion Milwaukee at Miller Park on Sunday afternoon. "And," La Russa said with a smile, "we're going to start Carp on two days rest four times (in the NLCS)." Just kidding. But then that gem that Carpenter put together in a showdown with his close friend and former Toronto teamm...

I watch them ever since they where 10.5 games out. They just kept pushing, making plays that were great and fantastic. There hits came at crucial times, when really needed and they played every game like it was the last one. That is the St. Louis Cardinals. To all the people who called the team a bunch of whiner"s. Well, who's the whinny now. Not the Cardinals.

"Wow, que tienes puesto hoy, muchacha?" he bellows, asking her to describe what she's wearing. She gleefully offers a Spanglish description of her tight red lycra bodysuit, then launches into a warning to stay away from the Lincoln Tunnel. "Let me ask you something," Paco says in Spanish. "What does it mean to you to be bilingual?" "Well," she chuckles, "it means I speak English, y tambien hablo español." "Claro!" shouts Paco. "But what does it mean when your boyfriend says you're bilingual?" Carolina squeals with laughter, the listening audience makes the connection between tongues and sex, and Paco pushes a button that plays a Spanish-language commercial hawking home delivery of The New York Times.
A little bit of English, a lot of Spanish, an unapologetically macho sense of sexual politics, and a relentless barrage of hyperkinetic salsa and merengue have catapulted La Mega into a tie with LITE-FM (WLTW-FM) at a 5.9 share for the No. 1 radio station in the New York area, according to the spring Arbitron report. An El Diario editorial proclaimed that La Mega's victory "symbolizes not only the growth of the Latino media market, but the coming of age of the entire Latino community in the Big Apple." With about 18 percent of the metro area's population--a 77 percent increase since 1980--the Latino community has been a marketing boom waiting to happen. "This has been coming for years," said Arbitron researcher Robert Patchen. "There's nothing surprising about it."
One of the reasons American media outlets have been slow to galvanize this massive listenership is the community's own demographic diversity. "The Hispanic community is not a single entity," said Patchen. "There are lots of nationalities and lots of degrees of assimilation." That is why in the last few years Arbitron has been putting out a Hispanic Language Preference Report, which shows that the community is becoming increasingly bilingual. While it has long been assumed that the way to reach Latinos is in Spanish, last winter's Arbitron report shows that only 56 percent of New York Latinos prefer Spanish over English.
La Mega is owned by Miami-based, Cuban-born media mogul Raul Alarcon Jr., whose 11 U.S. outlets constitute one of the few privately held station groups left in America. Since it went to a salsa-merengue format about five years ago, La Mega has been refining its approach to its target audience. Recognizing the dominance of Puerto Ricans and Dominicans over Mexicans and South Americans in New York, it has completely eliminated ballad-oriented Spanish soft-pop from its mix, exiling it to its recent acquisition WPAT-FM, also known as Amor. Reaffirming the primacy of the salsa-merengue format, a second station, Caliente (WCAA 105.9), owned by Heftel Communications, joined the fray in June.
Although broadcasts are predominantly in Spanish, about 15 percent of La Mega's commercials are in English, and when Paco engages in "code-switching," freely moving between two languages with station foils like Carolina and Boca Chula, he is in touch with New York's Latino mainstream. Paco, who is the first DJ to be on the No. 1 station in the New York market in two different languages, is the ultimate symbol of reverse assimilation, a term now adopted by marketing wonks. "In the last five years our younger listeners have discovered that the music is hip to them, not only to their folks," said Paco.
La Mega's younger listeners have also made "El Vacilón de la Mañana"--with off-color comedians Luis Jimenez and Epi Colón--second only to Howard Stern's morning show, and the fans who pack 30-year veteran Mega DJ Polito Vega's live shows at the Latin Quarter, Copacabana, and Orchard Beach are predominantly in their twenties. Gregory Rodriguez, a fellow at the Pepperdine Institute for Public Policy who coined the term "reverse assimilation," insists that "despite the popularity of Spanish-language music and media, our power and articulation is going to come in English. The fastest-growing sector of the Latino market is native-born, and virtually all native-born Latinos speak English."
Last August, La Mega became La Nueva Mega, a gimmicky move that brought in an even tighter playlist and increased contest giveaways. But the main reason for La Mega's success is a major shift in Latin music trends that had divided New York Latinos in the last decade. After an initial rivalry, salsa (a Puerto Rican thing) and merengue (a Dominican thing) listenership have merged into one massive salsa-rengue fan base. Even more important, the salsa genre has become transformed by the emergence of three Nuyorican acts, Marc Anthony, La India, and Tito Nieves. Since the late '80s, the bland, sugary salsa romantica had held sway. But Anthony and La India, who had been recording house and techno songs, used their soulful r&b influences to reenergize salsa music with a new jack attitude. The New Yorkbased Dominican salsa singer Raulin Rosendo's recent No. 1 hit, "Llego la Ley," a song that makes palpable the undocumented immigrant paranoia of the INS, echoes the urban politics of '70s salsa classic Siembra, by Willie Colón and Ruben Blades.

text: Yep, good old "guesstimate' focusing. There are fancier names for it, and even some articles at various web sites about how to do it. Mainly practice, practice, practice, and learn to take advantage of the DOF scale on the lens. Also, depending on whether your Ikon was an import model or not, the numbers on the focus wheel might be in either feet or meters, so that has to be taken in account (hint: if the numbers on the focusing part of the lens start with 1 or 1.5 it's meters, if they start around 3 or 4 it's in feet.) I have a Super Ikonta that originally had a crack in its lens so I found another one (with a reportedly much more desirable Tessar lens) and swapped lenses. Then an odd minor dilemma showed up - the uncoupled rangefinder was in meters and the numbers on the lens were - you guessed it - in feet. I just multiply the rangefinder number by three, and get in the general ballpark. Folders are great fun, and easy to take everywhere, so you should be in for some good times with your new camera.

I know you can get the first byte by using
int x = number & ((1<<8)-1);
int x = number & 0xFF;
But I don't know how to get the nth byte of an integer. For example, 1234 is 00000000 00000000 00000100 11010010 as 32bit integer How can I get all of those bytes? first one would be 210, second would be 4 and the last two would be 0.

For Bears, backup QB 1 of few questions on offense
BOURBONNAIS, Ill. (AP) — Almost as soon as he signed with the Chicago Bears, Jimmy Clausen got some tutoring on the offense from Jay Cutler.
If everything goes according to plan, his knowledge of the system won't be tested in a meaningful way.
The Bears would love nothing more than to see Cutler get through the season without missing time and render the backup quarterback spot a non-issue.
Instead, it's one of the few areas of concern for an offense that ranked among the league's best last season and has all its starters back.
For now, coach Marc Trestman has the returning Jordan Palmer in the lead. Then, there's Clausen trying to win it, with rookie David Fales likely trailing the pack.
"They're both very hungry," Cutler said. "They've both worked extremely hard this offseason putting in the time mentally, which is probably more important for them right now, just trying to figure out the playbook so they can go to the line of scrimmage and be fluent in what they want to do. We'll see how it goes."
There is no shortage of eyes on this competition, given Cutler's history of injuries and the departure of veteran Josh McCown. He played his way to a starting role in Tampa Bay after making the most of his opportunity when he got the call with the Bears last season.
Now, Palmer and Clausen are competing.
Neither has thrown a pass since 2010, but assuming the Bears don't bring in someone else, one of them could be called on if Cutler gets hurt.
"The guys are doing a heck of a job in terms of what we've seen," Trestman said Saturday after the Bears completed their second training camp practice. "I think you've seen it. I think you've seen some pretty sufficient play in the backup role."
Trestman and general manager Phil Emery expressed confidence in Palmer as the No. 2 quarterback early in the offseason. But that didn't stop them from giving him some competition.
The Bears signed Clausen, the former Notre Dame star, to a one-year deal in early June following a strong workout. Almost as soon as the ink dried on his contract, he found himself getting a crash course in the system from Cutler.
"He helped me out a lot, especially that first day, going through the formations and just the basic things they do in this offense," Clausen said. "Obviously you get a whole entire playbook, but a lot of the plays in the playbook aren't necessarily the ones you run. So he kind of went through pretty much the whole entire playbook and said, 'Hey, you need to know this, this and this.' He really helped me a lot."
The Bears know just how important the backup spot can be given Cutler's history. He hasn't played a full 16 games since 2009, his first season in Chicago after being acquired from Denver, and he has missed 13 over the past four years.
He sat out five last season, forcing McCown into action, and the veteran performed about as well as anyone could have expected.

This hotel was terrible. The room was not clean, and the front desk ignored my complaints to the point where they told me " it is what it is". The "non-smoking" room had a very pungent smell that the person at the front desk told me to consider normal. Staff from the moment you enter until you leave show no respect to the patrons, can't articulate full sentences, and show no care or pride in what they are doing. The wifi kept cutting out every 5 minutes which made it impossible for me to complete work. Overall this hotel is terrible and I would not recomend to anyone. ...

photo posting
Can pics only be posted thru smugmug? I have flickr and cannot get it to work
Thanks, Bruce
I use either Image Shack or Photo Bucket and either works. I had to experiment a little to figure out which link would become a photo. I use "Direct Link" in Image Shack.
Wish I knew how to do more but I've gotten this far.
When you click on the "insert image" icon and paste your link here, sometimes you need to add ".jpg" to the end to get it to show up.
Flicker works
You want the medium "C" size http link
Right click this photo and select properties you will see the link. Address (URL)
Thought I would give the Flickr link a try........
edit....but the image doesn't show?

there it is,,,,,,thanks for the info.........
Specifically: http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=919
I have learned how to post a photo but I do not know how to control the size of that photo. Most of the time I get a tiny thumb size and it is not useful. I use mostly Image Shack for hosting photos and they provide limited editing. There is a feature of the Upload Page that allows me to select a size but this has no impact on what I get even if I select a different size. I think I need to resize a photo on my computer with my software before I save it to Image Shack? But I don't know how to do that.
I use a MacBook Pro 13", two years old. Everybody said I'd be able to do things a lot easier with Mac than Windows. This has not been my experience.
There is probably something in the coding of the URL that determines the final size of the image. In the SMugmug URL's you can actually see the O, L, or XL, or you can specify an 800x800, or 1200x1200 or whatever size.
Things are easier on a mac, just not when they are things not associated with MAc's, like picture websites :D But I agree with you, most thingsare not easier, but videos play a damn sight better!
I'm not sure how posting a picture could be any easier on a Mac, but it's pretty easy in general.
Anyways.. here's a cell phone pic from yesterdays ride.
if you open the pic with the basic "Preview" software, and look at the drop down menus along the top of your screen, one should be called "advanced" or something (i can check when i get home). that drop down menu gives you the option of image size. just edit and "save as", then upload.
Image Shack really doesn't give you links to different sized options? each link should be different for each size I'd think.
good luck!
Everything gets dumped into the Mac through iPhoto. IPhoto becomes the warehouse and editor.
I use SmugMug. That provides an uploader called MacDaddy....
Once the images are in smug the address is copied and pasted into adv...
I back up the whole mess with an external harddrive.
Posting pics
I still cannot figure posting out, I know my way around a garage but I suck on a computer. The bike is done except throttle cables coming from Ca. It came out really nice, very much like the 1973 ISDT bikes of Herbert Schek. I can email photos, not sure how to caption them. I have spent my whole life building and restoring houses, and hold all of the mechanical liscenses, computers weren't a part of my work and it shows. I have a hard enough time with a simple cell phone. Arrrgh
Send them to me and I will host/post them.
I've been using & supporting Smugmug. Arn't I also supporting ADV with my Smug acct, in a way???

"It was muddy and sloppy - and a fun exciting game," he said, noting that the players were covered with mud, and struggled to keep their face masks cleared of dirt. "The kids felt great because they knew it was a good team they'd beaten."
Looking toward the Rensselaer showdown
Monday, Bennett said his players were looking forward to their showdown with Rensselaer, and that the Rams were tough opponents.
"They're big, they're strong, and they're fast," he said, noting that a win would likely give them a No. 1 seed in the upcoming Section II playoffs. A loss would place them at No. 2 or No. 3.
With one regular-season game left in 2009, Bennett said he was pleased with his team's performance this year, particularly the players stepping up and filling vital roles due to injuries or other issues.
"Every time we lose someone, a player steps in does a fantastic job," he said. "We're playing really well as a team."

Everybody, it's Joan of Arc's 600th birthday! The young French heroine was born (at least according to legend) on this day in 1412; she was burned at the stake at the age of 19, in 1431.

This is 7 minutes long, but funny as hell.
This is 7 minutes long, but funny as hell.
Kind of speaks to the intelligence level of some of the people that they recruit on these "news" shows just to scream at one another.
Send that dude back to an 8th grade history class so he can gain some semblance of knowledge of history.
RIP Jacob Schlottke - 1984-2011
"If Cornell finishes ahead of Iowa with five all americans I'll jump into the Des Moines River after finals." -Herkey#1 8/16/12
LOL. A bit embarassing for the poor guy, no?
Jacob Schlottke---Gone too soon, and the world is a little less bright because of it. RIP, brother.
One, two, Evans is coming for you...
I think Kevin James is one of the worst people they could have had on the show. But, he was right in assessing Chamberlain's appeasement, for which he was infamously known. Also, did anyone else notice how Matthews shut up when James brought up how many terrorist attacks occurred during the Clinton administration? Did anyone notice that Matthews said, "Didn't the Cole happen under Bush"? The answer is NO, the Cole was bombed on October 12, 2000, which was nearly a month BEFORE Bush was elected, and more than 3 months before Bush took office!
Before we say that Matthews "owned" anybody, we should understand that his twisted view of history and his thinking that the Cole attack went UN-RETALIATED under Bush is far from reality.
skipster, while all that is true, it is neither here nor there. The guy looked like a retard. And he made it worse by blathering on and on about appeasement instead of just admitting he didn't know.
Jacob Schlottke---Gone too soon, and the world is a little less bright because of it. RIP, brother.
One, two, Evans is coming for you...
Sure, he looked AWFUL on that show. I'm surprised Matthews let the stuttering and screaming go on as long as he did. I just think that Matthews got it thrown back at him and didn't know how to handle it, so he shot back something about the Cole that was blatantly incorrect. He railed against Kevin James for not sharing the same interpretation of a person's actions (common to many on the left), but he then made a historically FALSE statment.
The whole thing about Neville Chamberlain was all about interpretation -- all about subjectives. Chamberlain thought that if you talked to Hitler and gave in a little bit, he woudn't want more, which is what he tried to do when he gave Hitler portions of Czechoslavia and Ireland. Some on the left think the same way in regards to Hamass and Iran. Some call his actions appeasement, some call it something else. But, that is all up to interpretation and Matthews is telling James that he knows nothing about history because he interpreted Chamberlain's actions differently than Matthews did.
But, how can Matthews berate James and tell him that he has no knowledge of history when Matthews himself doesn't even know that the Cole, an attack on AMERICAN SOLDIERS that happened MUCH more recently than Chamberlain's shenangians, was committed under Clinton??
James merely thought differently than Matthews. Why can't Matthews be more tolerant of different interpretations, like he screams that conservatives should be? The total hypocrisy here comes when Matthews berates James for not knowing history (though he clearly did), then Matthews doesn't know history, either.
Speaking of talk show hosts making fools of themselves, Ed Schultz called Bush an idiot on Hardball today. Matthews didn't take kindly to it and essentially cut him off. Even though I agree with Schultz about 50% of the time, going on national TV and calling the pres an idiot doesn't advance the discussion.
I'm glad Matthews smited him (even though I can't stand Bush).
The House of Chamberlain is as about as weird as it gets -Sir Houston ''channeled '' a novel and was a huge occultist -he was an ardent admirer of all things German , especially Wagner . I believe the Nazi's used excerpts from his novel as propaganda .
You must remember to put all this into the context of the times -I mean , Hitler was Time magazines man of the year and a lot of British didn't want another war -also , at about this same time , Joseph Kenedy pronounced Democracy was dead and Fascism was the future , that is why he was returned to the states in total discrace .
Hitler was greatly inflenced by Karl Haushofer and his idea of ''living space''-that is why Hitler was so adamant about the Danzig corridor -he needed access to the sea .
Also Chamberlain was disgusted by the treaty of Versailles -leaving Germany destitute morally and financially . Berlin was the ''Tiajuana''of Europe -and Chamberlain liked Germany ,just as granddaddy and daddy did-he was a fan of the term Aryan [which simply means a white person ] and was a lover of Anglo/Saxon stories and a big plus here -He hated Churchhill with a passion .Often referring to him as that drunken pervert.

Ralph Malbrough / Contributing Writer
New Orleans Saints fans and America in general don't love Darren Sproles enough.
Even though he was named Player of the Game after the Saints win against Atlanta it feels like barely two years since acquiring him fans have started taking his awesomeness for granted.
Sproles' six catches for 88 yards versus the Falcons were a thing of beauty including one that almost defies description. Sproles caught the ball from Drew Brees then did a 360, tip toed the sideline, and picked up a critical first down. It didn't get replayed on Sports Center or make a Top 10 play list but it should have.
While I love fantasy football it really does sort of cloud our opinion of offensive skill position players. Sproles is part of the three-headed monster Sean Payton uses at running back so his fantasy value can sometimes feel like an Internet stock on Wall Street. One week he is leading your team to victory and the next he is quiet as a mouse. This, of course, has nothing to do with his actual value to the Saints, as I doubt Payton worries about how our fantasy teams are doing.
(Sean, you totally should though! For everyone's sanity don't let Mark Ingram touch the ball EVER AGAIN!)
I would argue besides Jimmy Graham, Darren Sproles is the biggest matchup nightmare Saints opponents face. If you don't believe me go to any Atlanta Falcon fan blog and read the horrible things they say about the Falcons defense inability to cover Sproles. Darren was about two more catches away from having the entire Atlanta fan base lose their minds Sunday. Good times.
Sproles is the Ritz Carlton of safety valve and check down options and Drew Brees is entering year three of five-star luxury.
All Sproles has done since he helped get LSU in the National Championship Game by single-handedly destroying Oklahoma while at Kansas State in 2003 is carve out an NFL career as a running back who basically can't be covered by linebackers while being the smallest player on the field every week. Besides Drew Brees and Jimmy Graham, Darren Sproles is the third most valuable piece in the offense even if we sometimes fail to realize it.
Rob Ryan's Big Chart of Fun Update: All year long I'll be charting how the Saints defense does under Rob Ryan in certain situations. For a full explanation of how it works read this.
Against Atlanta the Saints defense gave up 367 yards and by NFL rankings is 18th. Pretty good compared to 2012 right? The way we grade with 'Rob Ryan's Big Chart of Fun' the Saints were a lot better than just ok against the Falcons.
Rob Ryan's boys held Atlanta to just 2.28 yards per carry on first down and in passing situations (2nd and 3rd downs of more than 7 yards) only allowed only two plays of more than 10 yards in 12 attempts. In fact the defense hit their goals in 8 of 9 categories.
Rob Ryan reportedly celebrated in the most Rob Ryan way possible by going to Ms. Mae's and having a Heineken. You deserve it this week big guy.
The Games:
Last Week: 3-2
Season: 3-2
Tampa Bay (+3.5) vs. New Orleans Saints: This game will be a really good barometer on if the Saints improved run defense is real. Tampa is going to pound Doug Martin at the Saints and holding up in the heat without Brodrick Bunkley and Tyrunn Walker could prove difficult.
Bucs coach Greg Schiano is looking more and more like USC's 2014 head coach every week. My wife's cats have more discipline and focus than the Bucs did against the Jets. If we created a dumb football checklist Tampa would have marked every box last week in New York. It was a cornucopia of stupid.
So why am I taking them against the Saints? Desperation. If Tampa loses to the Saints, they face a trip to New England and are staring 0-3 in the face. The Bucs are already having player only meetings and it's only Week 2. This means most likely the players HATE GREG SCHIANO. Have the Saints ever had a player's only meeting in eight years under Payton?
Josh Freeman has quietly become a complete mess of a quarterback. When he faces even the slightest bit of pressure he turns into southern version of Mark Sanchez. Did I mention Tampa's training facility still might be infected with MRSA? MRSA isn't the sticker price of your new car, it is basically the black plague and it may or may not still be in the players' locker room in Tampa.
Yet I'm picking Tampa to win. It makes no sense except to say I'm not a believer in the Saints run defense. By 6 p.m. Sunday the Saints will look dog tired in their black jerseys in the Florida heat and Rob Ryan might need an IV just like the players.
Tampa 24-20
St. Louis (+6.5) at Atlanta: The Falcons did not look nearly as good as they did in 2012. The Saints were clearly the better team and I expect Atlanta will need a late game miracle they didn't receive against the Saints. Stephen Jackson is old and won't be a top 15 fantasy running back.
Falcons 31-27
Buffalo (+3) vs. Carolina: How does Mike Shula keep getting hired to run NFL offenses into the ground? Seriously. The man loves the 7-yard completion on 3rd and 10 more than I love Bud's Broiler. I expect Cam Newton to punch him in the face on the sideline by Week 4. If I had remembered Mike Shula was running the offense in Carolina I wouldn't have drafted Cam Newton as my fantasy quarterback. That's what I get for not preparing for my draft. Remember kids; failing to prepare is preparing to fail. GUH.
Bills 23-20
Philadelphia (+7.5) vs. San Diego: Did you see the Eagles on Monday? Seeing Chip Kelly's offense was like the first time someone showed me an I-phone. I was like, 'Oh my God a cell phone can do this?' I don't know if a team can keep up that insane pace with only a 53-man roster or if Michael Vick can stay healthy but it is awesome to watch.
I won't lie, if Sean Payton wasn't coach of the Saints I'd want Chip Kelly to be. That offense would be fantastic to root for every week.
Eagles 34-17
Tennessee (+8) at Houston: My sister, an alleged Saints fan, dressed her two-year-old in a Texans jersey last weekend. First he is wearing a Texans jersey, then he is wearing clogs, and then he is reading Marx and IS A COMMUNIST. It is a slippery slope my friends. Am I using an Internet column to shame my sister? Yes.
Did you know the Texans are having Vanilla Ice perform at the team's home opener Sunday? And I thought the Saints shouldn't play the Ying Yang Twins anymore because they were out of date. 'Ice Ice Baby' was released in 1989 in case you were wondering. In Texas it will always be 1989 and J.R. Ewing still rules us all. Sometimes the jokes write themselves.
Texans 27-23

Despite their completely impractical nature, RVs hold a special place in my heart. Part of it is nostalgia for childhood adventures, but part of it is the sheer, ridiculous audacity of driving a house around. I love the big, stupid things, and I dream of owning one before the oil is gone, so shows like the eighteenth annual Colorado RV Adventure Travel Show are like Disneyland for me. Everything from behemoths that cost twice the value of my house to little trailers you could pull behind a compact car will be on display at the Colorado Convention Center, 700 14th Street, from 10:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. daily, today through Saturday. Throw in some seminars on camp cooking, RV safety and more, and you have three days of bliss for RV geeks. Admission is $8 for ages twelve and up, $7 for seniors 62 and over, and free for kids eleven and under, with discounts available online.
