Yet, Pac and Team has repeated stated no longer going above 147........so why is that ok?
Floyd said he wanted the best in cotto so 154 is where he said OK. That gives way to Martinez. Floyd will duck Martinez because he should get 100% of the revenue and he can't afford to give anything to Martinez. He also can't sacrifice his health so Martinez is out the question but don't tell anyone.
He is P4P #3. Like others have expected in other p4p members they have gone through numerous weight classes to fight the best and great challenges. So why not have Martinez vs Ward at 168 which will let him win those belts.

Agree completely with this thread. Would love to see the fight at 160 though? Could Ward make that? Kinda doubt it.

The only flaw in Sergio claiming he's being avoided is that he's avoiding to. Lou says Sergio can't fight Pirog because he won't come to America. That's pretty true though. But what's the excuse with Golovkin??? He's more than willing to come to America. They fought Dzinziruk on America, and no one in American would recognize that guy on the street, no one.
And the flaw with Ward and Bute being too big is that Julio is as big, if not bigger, than they are. I just hope Sergio cleans out MW to make his legacy, fights Ward or Bute at a CW, or goes back down to 154 for big fights and wins another title there. Or a combination of that as well would be nice. If he fights Macklin, Lee, and Geale this year, good with me. Then, either go down to 154 for a big title fight, fight a Ward or bute at a CW, or stay at 160 and fight Golovkin, Pirog, Quillin, etc.

Pirog, Golovkin, Chavez are all more than aceptable fights for Martinez. He should just stay at 160.

In what's becoming a GDC tradition, Sony today announced an update concerning the PhyreEngine, a free, cross-platform middleware tool offered to developers interested in creating PS3 games. First introduced in 2008, the PhyreEngine has since been utilized in games like Critter Crunch, Shatter and Flower. Today, SCEA has announced the expansion of PhyreEngine compatibility to the PSP.
"We're very happy to see the continued popularity of PhyreEngine with the global game developer community," SCEI senior VP of technology Teiji Yutaka said. "PhyreEngine for PSP was developed in response to requests from the game developer community, and we hope that the release of the PSP version demonstrates our commitment and support for game developers on all our platforms." The engine will be demoed at GDC this week.
The PS3 version of PhyreEngine has been praised by studios like Capybara and Sidhe. Perhaps the PSP iteration will be met with an equal amount of enthusiasm and help bolster the portable development community.

The album opens, and the jaw drops. It's a Savoy Brown medley! DLR is making like a ceegar-puffin' Chris Youlden; he's packed up all the boogie from the non-"Endless Boogie" side of A Step Further and fried it up right, like he did for "Tobacco Road."
The dancing beat drags you to the floor, a Steve Miller trip gets laid on, and it's fair by way of crunchy guitar that quotes from a Buddy Miles lick. By the time Doors and Hendrix songs are deployed, it's a joyful pig-roast record.
Newsmen deign to notice Dave these days only when the cops are called to escort a crackhead off his property or when someone sues the guy. It's unfair middle-ageism at work. Diamond Dave is not just for people in Japan and Las Vegas. The man is the very definition of antic fun at your backyard cocktail party.
Related, because they too rip off Savoy Brown, are the New Orleans band Supagroup. They also wish to be recognized as AC/DC clones. All right, I can do that! There are kids on guitar and drums who look like Schoolboy Young. One of the schoolboys also doubles as Bon Scott.
Half of Supagroup is hardscrabble six-strings and rhythm purposefully mimicking High Voltage. The number to hear, though, is "I Need a Drink," a slinky steal of Savoy Brown's "Street Corner Talkin'," which not only captures slouching-to-the-liquor-store bonhomie but is also more clever than one would think possible for guys who look barely 20. So invite them to your cocktail party with Dave already.

Originally written on The Colts Authority | Last updated 11/14/14
No, this isn't a lesson in geometry despite the reference to Pythagoras. Hefty math is involved however. You've been warned. Nate Dunlevy tackles Bill James' famous concept of pythagorean wins as it pertains to our Colts. Let's start with an explanation: The concept is simple, even though the math is tricky. The idea is that over time, a team's point differential (points scored minus points allowed) is a better indicator of how that team will perform in the future than their record is. For example, a team that is 6-2 but has been outscored by five points on the season because of a couple of blowout losses is more likely to play like a 4-4 team going forward than like a 6-2 team. Simple right? Some would say a team is "hot" or "getting lucky" or "has a knack for winning close games" but the math doesn't lie. If you're interested in the math click here. Nate shows us just how good Peyton Manning was during this stretch by discussing the good years. The Colts outperformed ...

Coconut Southern Comfort Layer Cake
So I thought I'd start out this blog with a
bang. A big coconutty SoCo bang.
I had seen this recipe in Bon Appetit several months ago and was immediately fantasizing about it. My boyfriend Alex loves coconut so I knew I would have at least one taker in the house. But I needed a special occasion to cook such a large cake. This weekend rolls around we are visiting Alex's family in Connecticut. Perfect timing for coconut overload.
I'll warn you, you are in this one for the long run. This cake presented a pleasant challenge, but is time consuming. I don't normally want a recipe review to be this long, but here we go!
Coconut Southern Comfort Layer Cake
Recipe Adapted from Bon Appetit Magazine February '12 by Martha Hall Foose
4 cups unsweetened coconut chips
2 ¾ cups cake flour
2 ½ cups unsweetened shredded coconut
1 tbs baking powder
2 tsp kosher salt
2 ¾ cups sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter, room temperature
5 large eggs
½ cups coconut oil, warmed to melt
1 cup buttermilk
2 8-oz. packages of cream cheese, room temperature
1 ½ cups (3 sticks) of unsalted butter, room temperature
1 ½ 2 ½ tbs plus ¼ cup Southern Comfort
½ tsp kosher salt
5 cups powdered sugar
We start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees.
Lay out the coconut chips in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with foil. Recipe calls for 4 cups, but in the end I used probably 3. If your package of shaved coconut only has about 3.5 cups (7oz) you should be fine. Toast in the oven until about three quarters of the pieces are golden brown. About 5-7 minutes. Watch them! They get really brown in the last minute or so quickly!
While the coconut is toasting you can prepare your cake pans. You will need four 9" cake pans. But seriously who has four 9" cake pans? I have two and cooked the cake in two batches. If you have only one pan, well you may be baking for a long time...
Original recipe does not call for lining pans with parchment paper, but I would, especially since the cake bakes a little sticky. To line pans with parchment paper, place a pan on the parchment and trace with a pencil around the pan. Repeat three more times. Cut out the circles. Prepare the pans by brushing bottom and sides lightly with butter. Place a parchment round in the bottom. Brush with more butter and dust with flour. Lining with paper lets the cake pop right out. It only takes an extra five minutes and is way better than cake stuck in your pan :(
Now on to the cake. Keep the oven heated to 350 degrees.
First whisk together the dry ingredients of
cake flour, shredded coconut, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
Next cream the butter and sugar together until smooth and a lighter creamy yellow. You will want to use an electric mixer. Unless have arm of an Olympic discus thrower. Mix about 3-4 minutes. Now add the eggs one by one, beating as you go. Beat for another 2-3 minutes until fluffy and pillowy. Will feel awesome! Now add the coconut oil and beat.
*Note on coconut oil: I have never used coconut oil and found it rather intriguing and expensive. When looking for it in the grocery, look for jars, not bottles. When I bought it, it was solid, but once in my 90-degree apartment, it turned to liquid. Ready for cooking! If yours is not liquid, warm the appropriate amount in a small bowl/cup placed in another bowl of hot water. I'm not sure why the cake needs coconut oil, rather than vegetable oil, maybe someone more versed in oils can tell me. I know coconut oil is good for frying and has certain health benefits, baking pluses beyond that I'm not sure...
Back to the cake. Now it's time to add the dry
ingredients in three additions, alternating with the buttermilk in two
additions. Beat between each addition. We are almost there!
Divide the cake between the four pans. Well, I
have only two pans at a time, so I had to guesstimate. I guesstimated wrong. My
second two layers were much smaller. Oh well, tasted the same. I would say
about 1 3/4 cups per pan. Original recipe says more, but it wasn't so for me.
Spread the batter to the edge of a pan with a spatula and smooth.
Bake in the oven for 23-27 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool on a rack for 5 minutes and then pop out the cakes to cool. With the parchment paper in place all you should have to do is invert the pans and lightly rap on the bottom. They should come right out. Save the papers. I will tell you why later. Repeat the preparation of the pans and bake the rest of the batter.
Frosting time! Yay!
Whip out that electric beater again! You will be beating those three sticks of butter and cream cheese with some serious steadying elbow grease until creamy and blended. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as you go.
Now blend in the SoCo. I used more than called for, about 2.5 tbsp. yummy! Who can go wrong with more booze flavoring?
Now to add the powdered sugar. Be sure to
either sift your sugar beforehand or as your beat it in. If your powdered sugar
is anything like mine it will be filled with balls of sugar and you don't want
that in your frosting. You can scrape the balls through a sieve. Beat for
5 or so minutes more on a low speed until fluffy.
Next the recipe says to cut the layers in
half. Hell no! I am perfectly fine with a 4-layer cake rather than 8 layers.
In fact, I am not even sure they are tall enough to cut in half. Four layers it
Prepare you frosting station. Cakes are ready.
Frosting at attention. *Note: do not do as I did and stack the cakes- they will
stick together. This is why I mentioned saving the papers. Keep them around to
keep between the cakes while they are waiting to stop from sticking together.
Set out the first layer on your plate. I also used a cardboard cake round underneath because I knew I would want to transfer the cake later. If you want to build on the plate you will be serving with later, place pieces of wax paper under the cake. You can then pull out the pieces after the frosting is done and the plate will be clean!
Brush the top of the first layer with SoCo. Frost with about a half cup of frosting. I really like my icing knife. It makes frosting cakes much easier and smoother. Place the next layer of cake on top and repeat. SoCo and frost the top as well. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up. Keep the frosting out, but remove from your 90-degree kitchen and keep near the air conditioner. Complete by frosting the sides. Don't worry if it doesn't look perfect, the coconut flakes will make it look awesome! P.S. I had a lot of frosting left over and froze it for a later use.
Cover lightly with foil and refrigerate overnight. This will let all the flavors meld. Be sure to cover very loosely or the foil will stick to the cake and remove chunks when you peel it off.
Next Day:
Remove from the fridge and let sit 30 minutes or so. Cover with the coconut chips by lightly pressing into the top and sides. I'm not sure if this really needs to be done the next day. The coconut didn't really lose crunchiness after sitting a day, so I would say you could do it before putting in the fridge overnight. Then it would be really to go the next day and less fuss. Done!
And the verdict?
Not too heavy, but definitely rich. The cake itself was not light and fluffy, but certainly not heavy – it had a good texture. The frosting had a lovely tangy orangey spiced taste and the coconut coating makes the cake looks so pretty and professional.
This cake certainly took a good deal of time and several steps, so I would make it again, but only for a special occasion.
Also, this recipe calls for several expensive special ingredients. I don't usually stock SoCo, cake flour, coconut oil and copious amount of coconut. Also, my guilty conscious is sore from the five sticks of butter that went in.
And finally, if you plan on carrying this cake far, don't. It weighs 12 pounds. And you need a small army to eat it. After two days and more than 16 servings of cake, there was still a third left. But who doesn't like cake leftovers for breakfast?

The works of García Lorca, internationally recognized as Spain's most prominent lyric poet and dramatist of the twentieth century, are filled with thinly veiled homosexual motifs and themes.
There has always been homosexual involvement in American musical theatre and a homosexual sensibility even in straight musicals, and recently the Broadway musical has welcomed openly homosexual themes and situations.
Best known for his genius in art and architecture, Michelangelo was also an accomplished author of homoerotic poetry.
The African-American gay male literary tradition consists of a substantial body of texts and includes some of the most gifted writers of the twentieth century.
Combining elements of incongruity, theatricality, and exaggeration, camp is a form of humor that helps homosexuals cope with a hostile environment.
Langston Hughes, whose literary legacy is enormous and varied, was closeted, but homosexuality was an important influence on his literary imagination, and many of his poems may be read as gay texts.
James Baldwin, a pioneering figure in twentieth-century literature, wrote sustained and articulate challenges to American racism and mandatory heterosexuality.
Oscar Wilde is important both as an accomplished writer and as a symbolic figure who exemplified a way of being homosexual at a pivotal moment in the emergence of gay consciousness.

Celebrate Bisexuality Day has been observed on September 23 every year since 1999. The holiday, which is sponsored by BiNet USA, is intended to recognize and celebrate bisexuality, bisexual history, and the bisexual community.
The holiday is often celebrated on university campuses and other venues through events such as lectures, teach-ins, poetry readings, panels, and dances.
Wendy Curry, former president of BiNet USA, was one of the originators of the celebration, which was conceived to counter the marginalization that bisexuals feel within both the straight and the gay and lesbian communities, particularly the tendency to label individuals as either heterosexual or homosexual as though those categories exhausted the range of sexual possibilities and orientations.
Bisexuals are marginalized both by biphobia, which denotes prejudice and intolerance directed toward bisexuals, and by bisexual erasure, which is the tendency to ignore, remove, or falsify evidence of bisexuality in historical records, academic materials, the news media, and other primary sources.
Biphobia is apparent in negative stereotypes of bisexuals as confused, insecure, and unable to commit. Bisexuals are sometimes accused of being promiscuous or suffering from internalized homophobia or accused of denying their homosexuality so that they can partake of heterosexual privilege.
In its most extreme form, bisexual erasure asserts that bisexuality and bisexuals do not really exist. More commonly, bisexuality and bisexuals are erased by the assumption that people who claim to be bisexual are really closeted homosexuals or in transition toward acceptance of their homosexuality.
Bisexual erasure also occurs when cultural and historical figures, such as writers and artists and politicians, who have had extensive sexual experience with both sexes are nevertheless referred to as gay or lesbian rather than bisexual.
Within glbtq activist circles, bisexual erasure is sometimes manifested when bisexuals are not accorded equal status in the movement for equal rights, perhaps on the assumption that bisexuals partake of the heterosexual privilege denied to gay, lesbian, and transgender people.
On September 23, we all need to honor bisexuals in history and in our own lives and join in the fight against biphobia and bisexual erasure.

Santiago Calatrava Unveils His Newly Designed Liege-Guillemins TGV Railway Station
NEW YORK, Sept. 10 /PRNewswire/ – On Friday, September 18th, Santiago Calatrava will unveil one of his most ambitious architectural projects to date; the Liege-Guillemins TGV Railway Station in Belgium. Designed by Calatrava to meet the demands of high-speed travel, the station will bring new life into the industrial city of Liege, while positioning it as the epicenter of the North European High-Speed Network
To celebrate the grand opening, Calatrava will attend a series of inaugural events hosted by SNCB Holding, which is part of the Belgian National Railway Group. The festivities will kick off on Wednesday, September 16th with a national press day and conclude the evening of Friday, September 18th, with a never-before-seen show, created specifically for the grand opening and performed by the Franco Dragone Entertainment Group; the company that was behind Cirque du Soleil. All events are scheduled to take place within the new Liege-Guillemins TGV Railway Station, and will offer media rare behind-the-scenes tours, Q & A sessions with Calatrava, VIP activities and more.
Presiding over the celebration will be: Prime Minister Herman Van Rompuy, international dignitaries and members of the royal family, including Prince Philippe of Belgium. Also expected to attend are members of the press and representatives from Euro Liege TGV and SNCB Holding including Jean-Claude Fontinoy (president), Jannie Haek (CEO) and Vincent Bourlard (general manager).
Calatrava was first commissioned to design the new Liege-Guillemins Station in 1996, after Euro Liege TGV determined that the existing station was unsuitable for the demands of high-speed rail travel. Immediately, the starchitect was faced with a seemingly impossible task; replacing the existing station without interrupting train service or disturbing the 36,000 people who frequent the facility on a daily basis. Using a technique normally employed in bridge construction, Calatrava was able to accommodate this request, while preserving the integrity of his design.
Envisioning a building that would reflect the new station's significance as a high-speed, inter-urban link through Europe's cities, the architect chose to expose the working platforms and the dynamism of the moving ensemble of passengers and trains. The result is a modern station whose high-speed network will provide shorter travel times to Aachen, Cologne and Brussels, as well as to Frankfurt, Paris, London and the Southern portions of Europe, which are only a few hours away. The Station's high-speed trains will shorten the times of travel distances considerably, provide a scenic alternative for leisure travelers and enhance the efficiency of business travelers worldwide.
"It was my goal to create a 21st century transportation facility that would not only unite Liege with the rest of Europe, but would also serve as a symbol of the city's renewal," said Santiago Calatrava, designer of the Liege-Guillemins TGV Railway Station. "The project, as a whole, creates a new gateway into Liege and re-establishes a relationship with the city."
Located within the Guillemins quarter, the new station occupies a more central position within the Meuse-Rhine Euro region and frames the city of Liege. The architect imagined a building without facades, with a soaring roof that would offer protection from Belgium's natural elements, including its rainy winters. The effect is a flowing structure that illustrates Calatrava's reoccurring theme of movement. "The vaulted shape of the roof was a natural development of this vision, while the soft, undulating curve was selected to mimic the graceful rise and fall of the Cointe Hills in the background," continued Calatrava.
The Liege-Guillemins TGV Railway Station is the first part of a planned architectural vision for a corporate center in Belgium and is already asserting itself as the symbol of Liege's renewal.
For additional information on Santiago Calatrava and/or the Liege-Guillemins TGV Railway Station please contact Jacqueline Platt at Corbin & Associates, LTD. at 646.233.0465 or email@example.com.
Santiago Calatrava's name has been most closely associated with his celebrated designs of bridges and transportation centers built throughout the world. He recently completed his design for the new World Trade Center Transportation Hub in Lower Manhattan and in 2010 will unveil the Agora, a multifunctional complex within Calatrava's famed City of Arts and Science in Valencia. The building signifies the culmination of a 20-year-design and building project that, literally, created a city from a vast wasteland. Amongst his collection of internationally recognized work is the expansion of the Milwaukee Art Museum in Wisconsin (2001), the Athens Olympic Sports Complex (2004), the Light Rail Train Bridge in Jerusalem (2007) and the Quarto Ponte sul Canal Grande in Venice (2008).

Christmas Marijuana Seized at LAX: TSA is The Grinch
Some kid is going to be really disappointed this holiday season.
That's because a suspect with marijuana packaged in Christmas-present wrapping was busted at LAX this week, the Transportation Security Administration tells the Weekly.
Santa Clause does not exist, children.
And TSA is the Grinch. What's exceptional about this story is that ...
... the man allegedly had 120 pounds worth of weed in holiday wrapping, the TSA's Nico Melendez told us.
The look on that kid's face when Papa brought that home? Priceless. That gift could have kept on giving, too. Merry Christmas.
Apparently, though, it wasn't the way premature holiday theme that tipped off TSA security officers.
Rather it was that the "two large items in checked baggage ... could not be resolved through the use of screening technology," according to an administration statement.
You know, we could have totally resolved that stuff. With a few friends. And some nice Thievery Corporation on the stereo.
Okay, enough with the Friday afternoon jokes. It all happened Wednesday night in Terminal 6 when the suspect was trying to head to Cleveland via a Continental Airlines flight, the TSA says.
Authorities caught up with him at Gate 60, according to the administration. The TSA alleged he had two "packages" containing 50 and 70 pounds of weed each.
The Daily Breeze, which broke this story, says Derik Dwayne Neely, 32, of Flint, Mich. was arrested on suspicion of transporting marijuana for sale.
We'd also charge him for being an (allegedly) bad Santa.

Unlike most states, Massachusetts land transactions may be "registered" in a procedure conducted at the "Land Court." The Land Court's own engineering department reviews survey plans before registration is final. In this particular case, Mr. Martin's land had gone through that process showing Martin's 40' wide easement in a very specific location. Simmons Properties placed part of a building inside the 40' width. Martin sued, stating nothing could be clearer than a registered plan. The highest court in Massachusetts disagreed in Martin v. Simmons Properties SJC 11325 January 16, 2014.
The Court relied on the Restatement (Third) of Servitudes, a scholarly work that analyzes the law on specific topics from all jurisdictions. Section 4.8 (3) of the Restatement says that owners like Simmons can change the location or dimensions of an easement like Martin's in order to permit normal use or development of their own land. However, the change must not:
(a) significantly lessen the utility of the easement,
(b) increase the burdens on the owner of the easement in its use and enjoyment, or
(c) frustrate the purpose for which the easement was created.
Lesson: If you want to prevent your easement from being modified by the owner of the land your easement burdens, consult very experienced real estate counsel, and be very clear in telling them what you want your easement to do and to be.

Phase 3 Study of ProstAtak™ Immunotherapy With Standard Radiation Therapy for Localized Prostate Cancer
Basic Trial Information
|Protocol IDs
|Phase III
|18 and over
|Pharmaceutical / Industry
Trial Description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of ProstAtak™ immunotherapy in combination with radiation therapy for patients with intermediate-high risk localized prostate cancer. ProstAtak kills tumor cells and stimulates a cancer vaccine effect. Killing tumor cells in an immune stimulatory environment induces the body's immune system to detect and destroy cancer cells. ProstAtak has shown synergy with radiation without added toxicity and lower than expected recurrence rates in previous clinical trials. The hypothesis is that ProstAtak can lead to improvement in the clinical outcome for patients with prostate cancer. Participants will be randomized to the ProstAtak or control arm at a 2:1 ratio. Both arms receive standard external beam radiation therapy. Short-term androgen deprivation therapy may be given but is not required.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria include:
- Localized prostate cancer meeting the NCCN criteria of Intermediate Risk or patients having only one NCCN high-risk feature
- NCCN Intermediate Risk is defined as having at least one of the following: PSA 10-20 ng/ml, Gleason score =7, T2b-T2c
- High Risk with a single high risk feature is defined as having only one of the following: PSA>20 ng/ml, Gleason score 8-10, or T3a
- Excluded are those in the following risk groups: Low risk; High risk with more than 1 high risk factor; Locally advanced/very high risk=T3b-T4; Metastatic: N1 or M1
- Planning to undergo standard prostate-only external beam radiation therapy
- ECOG Performance Status 0-2
Exclusion Criteria include:
- Liver disease, including known cirrhosis or active hepatitis
- Patients on systemic corticosteroids (>10mg prednisone per day) or other immunosuppressive drugs
- Known HIV+ patients
- Regional lymph node involvement or distant metastases
- Patients planning to receive whole pelvic irradiation
- Prior treatment for prostate cancer, except TURP or ADT. For ADT, it may only be given for a maximum of 6 months
- Patients who had or plan to have orchiectomy as the form of hormonal ablation
- Known sensitivity or allergic reactions to acyclovir or valacyclovir

Silver Threads has recently completed a one-of-a-kind quilt to be raffled at the People's Fair in August as a fundraiser for Friends of Carnegie Library.
For June and July the quilt will be displayed at Community First Bank, Bank of Las Vegas, State Employees Credit Union, the City of Las Vegas city hall, Thread Bear and Carnegie Library.
It's hard to be against big government in Las Vegas, since that's our biggest business here. The state hospital is the single largest employer, while other federal, state, county or city jobs keep a lot of other workers away from the unemployment line. Meanwhile, three local colleges and two public school districts keep an enormous amount of money coming in, which boosts our economy in more ways than can be counted.
One of the greatest accomplishments of the baby boomers is not that we turned race and color into non-issues on the American landscape, but that we raised the generation that might just do it.
Case in point: The election of Barack Obama, our first African-American president. He was elected with the overwhelming support of young voters — more so than he had with voters over age 50.
Starting Monday, dozens of some of the premier recently graduated high school athletes in New Mexico will be in town for the start of North-South All-Star week in Las Vegas.
Las Vegas professional boxer Arturo "El Toro" Crespin got the chance to show his skills for a nationwide television audience Friday night. The bad part is that his light middleweight match with Janks Trotter didn't last very long.
TAOS — Win or lose, Mora Little League was one of the pleasant surprises on the first day of the District 4 All-Star Tournaments.
"We've had a really good turnout," said Michael Aragon, one of the coaches who has helped develop young players in the league this season. Aragon said between 120 and 140 youngsters played in Mora's teams this spring and summer.
"We have four all-star teams here," Aragon noted. That includes one in each of the three baseball age divisions (9-10, 10-11, 11-12) plus one juniors team.

Professional photographer turned budding filmmaker Stanley Kubrick ("Day of the Fight") follows up his self-financed directorial debut with a rather uninspired documentary commission from RKO which the filmmaker himself would later describe as silly.
The film supposedly documents two ordinary days in the life of Catholic priest Father Fred Stadtmuller as he pilots his plane between his 11 mission churches spread out over a 4,000 square mile area of Harding county in north-eastern New Mexico but the whole thing feels staged .
Father Stadtmuller makes a surprisingly insipid presence behind the controls of the Spirit of St. Jospeh as we follow him from the solemn funeral of a ranch hand to evening devotions to pastoral duties to canary breeding to an emergency flight all to the dulcet tones of news reader Bob Hite.
The future filmmaking legend seems constricted by the news reel format and although he manages to build some convention defying atmosphere there is little of the visual or structural flourish that marked out his previous "day in the life of…" documentary as being from an emerging talent.
"There's no brass band here, no cheering crowds, no newspapermen clamouring for a headline…"

McDonough said the White House is working on a resolution with Congress and Mexico by which the United States would be in line with its obligations under NAFTA, but he would not say if there would be an announcement on this issue today.
This weekend Obama heads to the Summit of the Americas, a meeting of the 34 countries in the western hemisphere with democratically elected governments. The summit will take place in Port of Spain, the capital of Trinidad and Tobago.
The only country in the hemisphere that will not be represented is Cuba, which does not have a democratically elected government and is not a member of the Organization of American States.
Just as he was in Europe, Obama is likely to be the most popular guy in the room. Latin America experts say expectations are high because it is the first time most of these leaders will be meeting Obama and his presidency marks a turning point from the Bush years.
The White House has not announced which leaders Obama will meet with one-on-one.
The global economic crisis will be a big part of the summit agenda, but leaders will also discuss related issues such as expanding renewable energy, reducing global warming, security and trade.
Obama administration officials say the president will address his support for "bottom up" economic development that helps the "poorest of the poor."
But analysts say the trip is really more about the beginning of a dialogue on regional issues and they don't expect anything concrete to develop.
Mauricio Cardenas, director of the Latin America Initiative at the Brookings Institution, noted that Obama is there in "listening mode" -- because he is not coming with an open checkbook.
"There are things that Latin American leaders want to hear from the president of the United States," Cardenas said, pointing to the message that Obama took with him to Turkey last week. "They want to hear that there is no war on governments to the left or to the right of the spectrum and so long as countries hold democratic elections, Obama will have good relationships with leaders regardless of their ideology."
Abraham Lowenthal, professor of international relations at the University of Southern California and the co-editor of "The Obama Administration and the Americas: Agenda for Change" said Obama has "tremendous" appeal in the western hemisphere, but the summit may not produce any specific agreements.
"The general approach and image of the United States will be significantly transformed by this encounter, so I think this is something that's well worth the effort being put into it," Lowenthal said.
The Obama Administration tackled one large looming issue before taking off for the trip -- easing some travel and business restrictions relating to Cuba.
On Monday the White House announced that it will allow unlimited visits to family members on the island as well as unlimited remittances -- the cash recent immigrants to the United States send to relatives back home. President Bush imposed stricter restrictions on both in 2004.

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas -- An armed carjacker stole a family's pickup truck while a young girl was still inside. It happened Wednesday night in the Walmart parking lot in Spring.
The mother was trying to pull her truck into a parking spot at the store near I-45 and Louetta Road, but there were some carts in the way. When she got out to move them, a SUV crashed into the carts and a man jumped out of the passenger seat.
That man got into the truck s driver s side and began to drive off with her 7-year-old in the back seat.
In a moment of desperation, mom tried to hold on to the truck from the outside. She was dragged to the front of the store.
I finally started screaming my daughter is in there, my daughter is in there, said mom. When he gunned the truck people started hearing me. They said do you know him? I said no, I don t know him.
He told me to get out, said the girl. I said okay. I started crying. He just pulled me out and opened the door and threw me out. I landed on my hands and he just took off.
The suspect got away in the mother s truck. It s described as a maroon Chevy Silverado. It has Texas plates 30Z-FF5.
Officials said there was another man driving the SUV that ran into the carts. He also fled the scene.
Aside from some cuts and scrapes, the little girl and mom are expected to be all right.
The two were visiting Wal-Mart to buy a birthday present.

Repair work on the Aratere Interisland ferry has uncovered
cracked rudder shafts.
The vessel has been out of action since last November when it
lost a propeller during a Cook Strait crossing.
Repairs to the ship have so far included installing new
shafts, old propellers and stabilisers, in preparation for
sea trials, KiwiRail said.
"When reinstalling the rudders this week, ongoing checks
identified a crack in the ship's port and starboard 'rudder
stock' - that is, the shafts which turn the rudders."
Interislander technical staff and the classification society
Det Norske Veritas were assessing options for repairs,
KiwiRail said.
Any necessary work would be undertaken in Singapore.
The replacement ship Stena Alegra would continue to operate
in the meantime, KiwiRail said.

John Calipari could be coaching LeBron James in the NBA Finals; does he have any regrets?Dan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 18 hrs ago
ROYAL OAK, Mich. – Last spring, John Calipari had a chance to become the head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Speculation on NBA jobs is an annual occurrence for the Kentucky coach but this was different.
"The only thing that was ever serious was the Cleveland thing," Calipari said Monday here outside Detroit at the "Coaches Beat Cancer" event, run by Oakland University coach Greg Kampe.
While there was no guarantee, there was, at the time, a possibility that LeBron James would return to the franchise, offering the chance to coach one of the greatest players of all time for an instant title contender. Opportunities like that just don't present themselves very often.
Cal, of course, said no to Cleveland. LeBron said yes. The Cavs open the NBA Finals on Thursday at Golden State.
So any regrets? Any pangs of wistfulness? After all, wishing you could do two things at once, run in dual tracts, doesn't denigrate the path chosen. Every coach would like to win an NBA title.
It was a good story. It would have been a great one except 38-0 Kentucky wound up losing in the Final Four to Wisconsin. The season, by any reasonable standard, was still a wild success.
With Sepp Blatter out, FIFA should start by stripping Qatar of 2022 World CupDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 19 hrs ago
Just days ago Sepp Blatter smiled triumphantly after a near landslide re-election for a fifth term as FIFA president and arrogantly declared himself, "president of everybody."
Indictments and extraditions meant nothing. Scandal and open criminal cases on two continents were mere distractions. The howls of the West, where the wealthiest soccer playing countries tried to band together to unseat him, were discarded.
Then Tuesday he up and quit, the 79-year-old running for the Swiss hills for some yet to be known reason … a gathering posse remaining the most likely, but yet unconfirmed choice.
"FIFA needs a profound restructuring," Blatter said Tuesday in Zurich, at a hastily scheduled news conference.
Perhaps for the first time Sepp Blatter said something undeniably true. And now there is a chance it can happen.
Sepp Blatter wins FIFA re-election the old fashioned wayDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 4 days ago
Immovable. Untouchable. Oddly impressive, even.
Sepp Blatter was elected to his fifth term as president of FIFA on Friday. It came just days after 14 former or current executives and associates were indicted by the U.S. Justice Department in sweeping charges of racketeering stemming from an alleged widespread culture of bribery and kickbacks.
In the end though, it hardly mattered. After blocking Blatter from getting a two-thirds majority on the first vote, Prince Ali bin al-Hussein of Jordan – needing to switch some 31 votes his way – withdrew from the race before the conclussion of the second majority vote. And with that, Blatter is back for four more years.
If the images of FIFA execs getting hauled out of swanky Zurich hotels weren't going to do it, almost nothing short of Blatter himself getting legally rolled up on will.
This was a testament to the power the 79-year-old Blatter has amassed over four decades with FIFA, including the last 17 as president, mainly in gaining unshakable support in many small, often poor nations.
What the FIFA indictments could mean for the U.S.'s 2026 World Cup bidDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 5 days ago
Prior to Wednesday, when the Justice Department decided to rattle FIFA's cage, causing soccer officials to be hauled out of their swanky Zurich hotel beds to face indictments and extraditions, the United States was a favorite to host the 2026 World Cup.
Even without bribing anyone. Seriously.
The expected U.S. bid remained preposterously strong – an endless parade of massive, modern and available NFL stadiums, airports, hotels and infrastructure, plus corporate power, a huge population and a fast-growing passion for the game. And North America is overdue to host the World Cup (U.S., 1994).
U.S. Soccer Federation president Sunil Gulati likes to say we could host the World Cup "tomorrow." He's only slightly kidding. Even FIFA strongman Sepp Blatter acknowledged the seeming inevitability, calling it a "big commercial opportunity."
Oh, and it's 130 degrees there in the summer, which means the Cup was rescheduled for November and December, screwing up major professional league seasons.
The vote went Qatar 12, U.S. 8 anyway.
So did Wednesday's legal actions doom the expected American bid?
Or did it assure its success?
Only surprise of corrupt, exploitative FIFA is that more weren't indictedDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 6 days ago
No one was surprised a bit by any of it. No one.
Not by the United States Department of Justice on Wednesday indicting 14 officials associated with FIFA, soccer's corrupt-to-the-core governing body. Not by the already six guilty pleas and the mountain of evidence they'll almost assuredly provide.
Not by Swiss authorities raiding a FIFA meeting at a swanky hotel in Zurich (where else would FIFA hold a meeting?), hauling guys right out of their rooms.
[FC Yahoo: Will FIFA corruption probe bring any change to Sepp Blatter's reign?]
Not by the opening of two criminal investigations into the awarding of the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, to Russia and Qatar respectively, which literally everyone knows was the work of bribes and favored government contracts.
(Proof? Who the hell would put the World Cup in Qatar in the middle of the summer without being bribed? Note: It's since been moved to winter, screwing up all sorts of things.)
It's FIFA.
Next in deflate-gate circus: Goodell's kangaroo court about to get exposedDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 18 days ago
Perhaps you have something better to do than follow the hourly machinations of the deflate-gate saga – at this point that would include elective root canal.
This is actually where it may begin to have significant ramifications for the NFL and, most notably, commissioner Roger Goodell, who may be doubling down at a time when the best option could be to lay low. Here are some of the, um, highlights:
The New England Patriots issued a lengthy rebuttal to Ted Wells' report on deflate-gate, findings that Goodell used to conclude that the team and quarterback Tom Brady broke rules involving the inflation levels of footballs in January's AFC title game. This led to sanctions and a suspension.
The Patriots offered some compelling counterarguments and context, and presented some new information. They don't really prove anything though.
Hey, anything is possible, but the Pats might have wanted to quit while they were behind on that item.
No word on who plays George Costanza.
This is how the NFL let deflate-gate get out of control and ridiculousDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 20 days ago
With anger still simmering, an appeal coming and Ted Wells holding a fiery teleconference Tuesday to attack Tom Brady's agent (professionalism straight out of the WWE), it's fair to say we are far from the end of deflate-gate.
A first-year attorney could lampoon Wells' report, and Brady has hired the prominent Jeffrey Kessler, so expect the four-game suspension to be halved on appeal. We'll see about the New England Patriots' lost draft picks and $1 million fine.
Still, at this point it's worth contemplating the totality of evidence, as Wells likes to write. And what's apparent is deflate-gate was more misdemeanor than felony, a molehill that commissioner Roger Goodell's office turned into a mountain via incompetence, vengeance or both.
"It's not ISIS," Tom Brady said back in January.
At that very moment, the NFL had to know the story wasn't true. Yet it did nothing.
Tom Brady in position to put NFL on defensive over deflate-gate probeDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 26 days ago
Tom Brady, in a long scheduled appearance at Salem State (Mass.) University on Thursday evening, said virtually nothing about deflate-gate, which means he said plenty about how he will likely move forward.
Brady's lawyers are expected to handle most of his response to the Wells Report, which focused on the inflation levels of the New England Patriots' footballs in January's AFC championship game. You can expect a detailed and ferocious response to the credibility of the 243-page report.
Brady isn't looking for a public relations tour. If he was, Thursday would've served as a perfect opportunity, with a controlled setting of a "speaker's series," a sympathetic interviewer in Jim Gray and a cheering gymnasium of fans, many wearing his jersey, as the audience.
"This is like a Patriot pep rally," Brady noted.
And yet, he deferred, refusing to throw out even a single campaign slogan.
"It's only been 30 hours so I haven't had much time to digest it," Brady claimed.
Tom Brady probably isn't innocent in deflate-gate, but Wells Report fails to prove he's guiltyDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 27 days ago
The conclusion in the NFL's "Investigative Report Concerning Footballs Used During the AFC Championship Game on January 18, 2015" is damning for Tom Brady, very damning.
"Based on the evidence, it also is our view that it is more probable than not that Tom Brady was at least generally aware of the inappropriate activities of [two New England employees] involving the release of air from Patriots game balls," the Ted Wells Report reads.
In other words: we're positive he cheated but we can't quite prove it.
For Brady, as much as he will be raked over the coals following the release of this report and be doubted by many forever, it actually could've been worse. The Wells Report is an opinion. While it's an opinion based on some strong evidence, some of the other evidence is a reach, more than enough for Brady to argue his innocence if/when he addresses it.
It was, however, the most plausible thing.
This wasn't the only theory advanced of course.
He then left the bathroom and headed out to field.
Ex-Green Beret Nate Boyer commanded Seahawks' attention without a workoutDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 1 mth ago
Late Saturday afternoon, just minutes after the 2015 NFL draft concluded, Nate Boyer's cell phone lit up with a number that made no sense … except it fit perfectly into the story of the NFL's most improbable rookie prospect.
Boyer, a former Green Beret who less than a year ago was involved in combat in the mountains of Afghanistan. It was part of his summer job, if you will, in the Army Reserves. The rest of the year he was the starting long snapper for the University of Texas.
He is also 34 years old – self described as "too old and too slow." And oh, he never played high school football. He walked on at UT only five years ago on sort of a lark after he was enrolled following repeated frontline tours in the Iraq War.
So after Texas' 2014 season ended, he decided to try out for the NFL, no matter how unlikely it seemed.
And now the phone was buzzing with a strange number.
Seattle. The Seattle Seahawks. How many workouts or conversations had Nate Boyer had with them?
"None," he said before laughing.
Seattle did.

What a great villa. My partner and I spent a week here at the end of June and it was hands down the most relaxing holiday we've ever had. The pool is just awesome, as is the outside eating area. And the balconies are a treat – you can get the sun at any time of day, not to mention the fantastic sunsets. The villa is nicely secluded and you're not overlooked by anyone. We found Villa Christos a great base for exploring the northern part of the island. Can't wait to go back.
This was our first visit to this beautiful island and Christos' villa was just perfect:, clean, beautiful, spacious, fully equipped, stunning views, very private yet minutes walk away from the village Antipata with its 2 great tavernas and other outlets. There are many beautiful beaches within 5 to 10 minutes drive and Fiscardo with its marina, shops and supermarkets is only 3 km away.
We loved this location from which the East coast and Assos are easily explored.
Christos was a great host, very welcoming and available for advice.
We will be back and would recommend this villa and this part of Kefalonia, a magical location for a superb holiday.
We spend 15 days in this house with our little baby (6 months old) and it was fantastic, I haven't got words to describe the house in general, I mean, it's perfect and the swim-pool give you an extra plus which it's perfect in summer days in Greece. I can tell you you will have very happy in this house at 100% ... therefore if you have the possibility to rent do it ...
Also, Kristos will help you in everything, any question or problem it will be solve by him .. one more time, for sure I can tell you this is the best option is you go to Kefalonia because I think the location is very good, close to Fiskardo, a small town where you will can enjoy every night dinning a very good prices.
I hope back again !!
The stay at the villa was wonderful.We were very happy there and have had everything we needed to be comfortable. The description of the property was spot on. The garden is lovely and the pool is fabulous. Christos was very helpful providing us with any information we needed. Local taxi service was very efficient and reasonably priced. Local beaches are superb as was Fiscardo town. The villa was very clean and the pool was cleaned several times per week. We would definetly recommend this villa /location to our friends and would hope to return again.
Recently returned from a magical stay at villa Kristos just outside Fiskardo. It was clean, very well spec'd and had everything we needed for a perfect family holiday. Christos was a great host and ensured we had everything we needed. It was also a great base for exploring Kefalonia - Fiskardo, Assos, Myrtos Beach well all very close. The local taverna's in Antipati were very good and a little cheaper than Fiskardo. Local supermarkets were good but fairly expensive - for a bulk shop we used Carrefour/Lidl on the outskirts of Argostoli. Can't fault the location or the house - just ideal. Early mornings and late evenings the peace & quiet is magical as are the views out over the sea!
Our family had a fantastic time at Villa Christos. The location in the forest was idyllic, being secluded and quiet. The only sounds were the cicades and cow bells.
The house itself was very spacious and well furnished and we really appreciated the air conditioning. We enjoyed being in the garden which is very natural with the olive trees giving great shade. The pool was cooling especially during the hot afternoons.
Also, we found Christos the owner extremely helpful especially with advice about the area and where to go to eat. We enjoyed talking to him.
We would recommend the villa and location to anyone. It is a great place to stay.
The famous Fiskardo 3 Km away. There are three beaches in the area. Driving time to Dafnoudi beach 10 minute drive, 15 minute walk. Embissi 10 minute Foki 15 minute. There is also the famous Myrtos beach which is 30 minute drive. Antipata has 2 restaurants and a mini-market. Manganos has 2 restaurants, mini-market and grocery shop. In Fiskardo you can find super-markets, bakery, post-office, ATM's, bars, restaurants. In Basilikades you find the pharmacy and the petrol station.The main airport is (EFL) Argostoli-Kefalonia 70 minute drive. From Fiskardo there are daily ferrys to Lefkas.

Upcoming fight: June 25 vs. Raul Munoz (21-13-1, 16 KOs) at South Philly Arena (7 W. Ritner St): Jones: This fight means a lot to me, obviously, because Im back home for the first time in more than two years. I want to look my best when Im at home, just like I do when Im anywhere else.
Its kind of a different feeling when youre at home, because you really want to perform. Like Manny Pacquiao says, I want to do it for the fans. Thats what I want to do. I want to look my best for the fans. I want to look great in there.
June 25th fight will be his first fight in Philadelphia since his March 6, 2009 second-round knockout over Dairo Esalas at the Blue Horizon. It also will be his 13th fight overall in his hometown and his 12th at this venue (South Philly Arena, formerly New Alhambra)

He cannot fall into the habit of waiting for HBO or Showtime or pay-per-view fights. Thats the problem with many of todays fighters; they wont fight unless they can make a score. The old-timers fought to pay their bills and to learn their craft. Experience is the key here and Mike needs it and the best part is that Mike understands this.
Top Ranks Bob Arum on Jones: We have known Russell Peltz for years and he is a true boxing promoter. Look at the job he has done with the career of Mike Jones, who is now co-promoted by Top Rank and ready to break out as a big star in the welterweight division.

Jones: Both fights with Soto-Karass were big learning experiences which will get me ready for bigger fights down the road.
His feelings about fighting for a world title (probably within the next 2-3 fights): I think that two, really tough-name fights down the road after this one, and then, Ill be ready for a title shot and Ill be ready to take the title. Until then, Im looking to take on anybody that is in the top 10. Thats who I want.
Mentor: Bernard Hopkins (who trains at the Joe Hand Gym, where Jones also trains at); Hopkins told Jones after the first Soto-Karass fight, Nov. 13, 2010: Youve got to use your jab and youve got to keep your distance and dont give these guys no chance of winning the fight when they dont have none. You want to have longevity in this game, so use your jab, stick it to them from behind that jab, and send that right hand straight down the pipe. Dont give these guys any chance of winning!

Martin Murray ready to step up after beating Blackwell
MARTIN MURRAY achieved his lifelong ambition to win the British middleweight title on Saturday night and roared: Bring on the best.
The St Helens captured the vacant crown when brave challenger Nick Blackwell was pulled by his corner out after five rounds.
Murray, now unbeaten in 23 fights was dominant throughout the battle and is now anxious close in on fellow world class Britons Darren Barker and Matthew Macklin who were ringside in Wigan.
Murray, 28, believes the secret to becoming a world champ is a special relationship with trainer, Oliver Harrison.
He said: Me and Oliver are going all the way together. To continue that path we had to beat Nick Blackwell and we did that.
The tactics he works out for everyone in the gym is spot on and it really is an eye opener.
I am lucky to have him my corner. I just admire Oliver as a bloke and a coach.
Blackwell, 20, was bidding to become one of the youngest British champions ever, but apart from a good first round the Trowbridge prospect couldnt handle Martins power and relentless pressure.
Murray who also retained his Commonwealth crown and World Boxing Association (WBA) inter-continental titles added: No disrespect to him. Im surprised he lasted as long as he did.
I thought I might have done him sooner, but I didnt feel 100 per-cent myself. I felt him tiring and Oliver said inside six rounds and he was right.
Im very happy to have three belts and I am ready to move on.
Blackwell who lost for the first time in nine fights was distraught at the corners decision, but nobody could complain at the act of compassion and he will come again.
Manchester Olympian Joe Murray stretched his unbeaten run to 11 wins and claimed his first pro title in front of the packed Robin Park Arena crowd.
Genius Joe lifted the International Boxing Federation (IBF) international featherweight title outpointing gutsy Scot James Ancliff 120-110. 120-109 and 118-111.
British lightweight champion Anthony Crolla floored Belgian Herve De Luca three times in round one forcing Terry OConnor to step in at 2 mins 59 seconds.

Coyne Finishes Up Camp
Undefeated cruiserweight Ryan "The Irish Outlaw" Coyne (16-0 6 KOs) has finished up training camp. Tomorrow he returns back to St. Louis for next Saturday's title clash versus Guillermo Jones (37-3-2 29KOs) at the Family Arena in St. Charles, MO.
The former Contender series participant went through the toughest training camp of his career and is eager to put his skills on display for on June 25th.
Coyne said "I put blood, sweat and tears into this camp. Jones is a great champion and I know I need to bring my 'A' game to beat a champion like him."
The Irish Outlaw is known for being athletic and well conditioned. Coyne's strength and conditioning coach Matt Brown said that The Irish Outlaw is in the best shape of his life and it will show next Saturday.
"Ryan is always in good shape but he took it to another level for this fight. The fans will be in for a great fight."
Coyne's trainer Jose Ponce agrees with Brown. He feels that Coyne's conditioning and speed will be the key to the fight. "Titles are won in the late rounds. I am confident that Ryan's conditioning and endurance will enable him to win the championships rounds and walk out of the ring with the belt around his waist."

A handkerchief or tissue. Implicit in the word is that the handkerchief or tissue has been used and that the product within it is particularly vile, greasy, and slimy; the result of diseased sinuses or a severe nasal infection. By extension the word can be used to describe a person having the same qualities, an obnoxious, slimeball whose very presence makes people nauseous.
