Kiffin keeps falling forward to USC
So let's sort out this Lane Kiffin from Tennessee to Southern California deal as best as we can.
USC, one of the top-five jobs in college football, just hired a guy who went 7-6 in his only season as a college head coach. He previously went 5-15 for the Oakland Raiders. Sure, Lane brings his dad, Monte, with him as defensive coordinator, but for how long?
USC, which is facing a multi-sport, department-wide NCAA bloodletting next month, just hired a guy who in his tenure at Tennessee was a walking secondary violation (six of them), had two players booted off the team after an attempted armed robbery and leaves with NCAA investigators looking into how the program used recruiting hostesses. And, of course, he was a Trojan assistant when the compliance trouble USC must answer for began.
USC, which is still smarting from the supposed "disloyalty" of Pete Carroll (who left after nine years, mind you), just hired a guy who Raiders owner Al Davis accused of being "immature" and a "flat-out liar." Kiffin, 34, did his best to disprove Davis by walking out after a single season on a UT administration that gave him a plum SEC job for no known reason.
(Wait, did USC athletic director Mike Garrett just make Al Davis look like he was correct about something?)
Oh, and Tennessee? That roll of the dice on the Smirk of the South leaves them coachless weeks before signing day when finding a viable replacement is exponentially more difficult. Hey, the one-liners about the Gators and the Pahokee High fax machine were fun while they lasted though, right?
And despite all of that, I don't think this was the worst move by the Trojans.
It tells you what you need to know about Garrett and Kiffin, both of whom deserve plenty of ridicule. In terms of potential wins and losses though, this might actually work out. That's especially true since USC wound up with Monte Kiffin as defensive coordinator.
Of course, Lane also needs to avoid self-destructing and no one, absolutely no one, can guarantee that won't happen.
In the meantime, the real question is who is cackling harder right now: 1. Urban Meyer, 2. Phil Fulmer, 3. Notre Dame fans?
Fulmer, no doubt, doesn't look so old and uncool to the fans who wanted him out (didn't you see me in "The Blind Side?"). ND can point out that when it took a flyer on an unproven coach at least Charlie Weis had four Super Bowl rings as an assistant. As an added bonus, it now has a coach, Brian Kelly, who might have a decided schematic advantage over their archrival after all.
That said, based on the video of a laughing Meyer checking his text messages at Tuesday's Florida basketball game, we'll go with No. 1. If nothing else, Meyer's stress level just returned to normal. This clinches it. Soon, the Gators are getting their daddy back.
The least happy person is Volunteer AD Mike Hamilton. He stuck his neck out for Kiffin because Kiffin talked a good game and, hey, when the clairvoyant Al Davis (for about 15 minutes) thinks someone might be the perfect coach for his new franchise quarterback, JaMarcus Russell, how don't you pay attention?
Now Hamilton is stuck wondering what happened and hoping, when it comes to an NCAA investigation, that nothing actually did. Good luck to Hamilton finding an SEC-level coach at this time of year. This will be especially difficult since the Kiffin debacle will likely undermine his authority and send his boosters into a state of infighting chaos.
After all, Tuesday night police were called in to break up a crowd of fans who were standing outside the football offices chanting obscenities about Kiffin, according to local news reports.
Or, consider my five favorite thread titles on the Volquest message boards Tuesday night (or, at least the printable ones).
5. Glad I only named my dog Kiffin.
4. Al Davis wasn't as crazy as we all thought.
3. Pat Summitt is more of a man than Lane Kiffin.
2. It's like getting a divorce from a stripper!
1. Layla can stay.
Mike Garrett was a heck of a running back in his playing days – he won the 1965 Heisman Trophy for the Trojans. He never moved quicker than he did since Carroll left for the Seattle Seahawks. This was the speed dating of all coaching searches, Garrett apparently running down his wish list like he was on a last-minute mission to find a prom date.
He finished with Kiffin, the fair-haired father's son who may turn out to be a good hire or may be a complete disaster.
The thing with Kiffin is there is truly no way to know – he hasn't lasted anywhere long enough to show he's more than a confident kid with a famous football name (Monte was considered a defensive genius during his long career as an NFL assistant). There's a hint of potential to him, but also a tendency for self-inflicted mistakes. Garrett is the third person to hire Kiffin. The first two wish they'd never heard of him.
Screwing over UT certainly doesn't say much about Kiffin. Yes, it's the USC job, coveted beyond belief. And yes, this is America and everyone has a right to better their situation.
There's also a thing called loyalty. Even by the pathetically low standards of college athletics, this one was rough. Naturally Kiffin soothed everything over by holding an approximate one-minute news conference in Knoxville.
"This was not an easy decision," he said of the decision he must have mulled over for, what, a half an hour?
Then he refused to take questions and left. He all but stole the school's last gallon of orange paint on the way out.
Once the smoke of hurt feelings is left behind in the Smokies, Kiffin will settle in with one of the sport's true Cadillac jobs. Has there ever been a coach who got progressively better gigs despite not experiencing any success at the previous one?
He keeps failing upward, which doesn't necessarily mean he's going to fail at Troy.
First off, you have to be one lousy football coach to screw up the USC juggernaut.
Yes, there are potential NCAA sanctions coming, but the NCAA doesn't have a punishment in its bag that can derail one of the big-time programs. Cutting some scholarships or recruiting visits would be a spitball off the Trojan battleship. Only a multi-season postseason ban (not going to happen) or the death penalty (really not going to happen) could slow SC.
If the Trojans have the proper coach, they'll keep winning. After all, Alabama is on NCAA probation right now and Nick Saban just won the BCS title. A year ago Oklahoma played in the title game while on probation.
Carroll left the Trojans with a slew of future NFL talent, a top-five recruiting class and arguably the hottest brand name in the sport (even if star tailbacks have to stop driving tricked-out cars).
Kiffin can make that work. If there is one thing he learned from his father's NFL experience it's to hire assistant coaches who can actually coach. He assembled a top-line staff at UT and is on his way already at SC.
During the course of his one season, Tennessee players appeared to go through a measure of development not always seen at the college level. Especially on offense, the Vols got better. UT was expected to be worse next season due to a lack of talent, but it wasn't out of the question that Kiffin was going to win in the long-term.
So, yes, the record isn't much, Kiffin talks a far bigger game than he's delivered and the complete lack of regard (or understanding) of the rule book would be troubling to most schools (not Mike Garrett's USC, of course, but most schools). Still, there's at least a chance this will work out in the win column. Does anyone in L.A. care about anything else?
One way or the other, it won't play out quietly – it never does with Lane Kiffin.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent phone.. don't be worried.
I bought this phone with the same worries others probably had such as,
1. Will it lag with it's single core CPU?
2. Will it freeze if i run more than one application at a time?
3. Will it have an obvious problem that irritates me?
I can safely say that none of these things pose any problem with this phone. The single core cpu that worried me so...

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent phone.. don't be worried.,
I bought this phone with the same worries others probably had such as,
1. Will it lag with it's single core CPU?
2. Will it freeze if i run more than one application at a time?
3. Will it have an obvious problem that irritates me?
I can safely say that none of these things pose any problem with this phone. The single core cpu that worried me so much actually does a very good job at running the phone very smoothly. I know some people on the older reviews have complained of some lag, but i think Sony updated the software since and it has sorted that issue out nicely. The phone browses around its menus and home screens without any glitches and i can also confirm that apps such as facebook, youtube, twitter and Chrome etc also work nicely without any freezing. I must say this phone has excellent battery life (rare with smartphones these days) battery life similar to the old 2G phones that would last several days.
The camera: Completely rubbish, I actually laughed when i tried it out it's comical. Supposed to be 5MP but my tablets 3MP camera puts this one to shame. It's more like one of the older 1.3MP cameras. Not a phone for the people who care about their picture taking. Loses 1 star for this.
The Walkman and sound quality from headphones is very good. Loud speaker is fairly decent in this price range too.
Also the 4 inch screen looks fantastic. Really bright and clear.
If your looking for a good android on a budget that just works an allows you to do most things a smartphone does then i think this phone suits your needs well enough. (Have not tested it's performance on demanding games)

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice style, shame about the lag,
Reviewify.co.uk "Mark" (UK) - See all my reviews
I like Sony handsets, they tend to do a good job and look a little different. The Xperia J has a nice, curved, design which is let down a little by it feeling a bit on the plastic side. It's a nice size and will fit well in most peoples hand.
The screen is nice and crisp to look at, but is let down by being a bit unresponsive (for example when swiping menus it doesn't seem as instant as it should). The camera is OK, but a bit of a let down considering cameras are something Sony generally do well. It's fine for the odd snap, but if you're looking for a handset that can also be a dedicated camera this is probably not the handset for you.
If you're looking for a budget Android handset that has a nice style to it then you'll likely be very happy with this phone. Would suggest seeing if you can play with one in a phone store first to make sure you're happy with it in the hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars Got this for the wife and she loves it.,
N. Artingstall "n tinstall" (paignton) - See all my reviews
Compared to I phones and top end htc or Sony etc this cannot compare. But for a cheaper smartphone with nice size screen and functionality it's great. Looks the business and 1ghz processor seems quite nippy to me. No problems here and camera seems decent enough for our general use. Anyway this will be mainly used as a phone not a plaything. If you can accept the slight compromises of a cheaper smartphone I don't think you will be in any way disappointed

5.0 out of 5 stars I wanted a good basic mobile...,
R837737 "PJH" (Essex, UK) - See all my reviews
After reading the reviews of this phone - good, bad and indifferent, I decided to trust the brand and hope that this mobile would work for me. And it certainly does! It is much faster than my previous one (HTC Wildfire S), has much sharper definition on the screen and looks good. I particularly like the intuitive way the phone operates - I've never had a Sony mobile before (and I'm not a techie) but I found it easy to work out how it operates on a basic level. It also has a far better battery life than my last one (but that wouldn't be hard!) with it needing to be charged every 2 / 3 days, although I am a light user.
There is a great deal more the phone does - more than I need - but I will explore these extras over time.
For now I'm just pleased I bought this particular phone and model because it more than satisfies my needs and wasn't too expensive.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent phone, with a few tweaks...,
Beanie Luck (Cotswolds) - See all my reviews
I have now had this phone for 2 months on contract.
I got it silly cheap on voda, less than 20 notes a month, so i am not that bothered about the price if im honest.
I upgraded from a blackberry bold and let me tell you, wow what a difference.
The 1st month i had it, i absolutely hated it. I still hate texting on it, in fact i have found i despise touch screens entirely and i miss my qwerty keyboard, but that is a personal preference, nothing to do with the phone.
So then, response times.
Turning on the phone, pain in the neck, you press and hold the power button until it vibrates and then it takes 30 seconds to load. I don't know why i find this frustrating but i do.
The screen for me also is unresponsive at times, i have found the trick to it when it wont do anything is to just press the power button to hibernate the screen for 30 seconds and then turn it back on. Job done. No problems at all.
Music, some people have complained that their music isn't loud enough and for that reason alone have given the phone 1 star. Ridiculous.
There is a trick to making it louder but the problem isn't with the phone but with the headphones which are absolutely awful. They are stiff, not comfortable and tend to sit outside of the ear, even though they are supposed to be in ear headphones.
I replaced my headphones with some ones I had bought to go with my iPod and they work perfectly. They are not a hands free headset though so you need to take them out of your ears to answer calls, but personally i don't mind doing that as I detest the spaciness of hands free voice calls. The headphones will play a noise though when you get an email text or phone call and the music automatically cuts off when the phone is ringing allowing you time to take out the headphones and answer it. When finished plus headset back in and music will play from where you left it.
If anyone finds a decent hands free set though, please leave a comment on the bottom of this review.
Anwyay I am just using my cheap ones in pink, Philips SHE3570PK/10 In-Ear Headphones - Pink they are brilliant, loud as you like and with a few alterations will in fact blast your eardrums out.
You can also get them in:
Green: Philips SHE3570GN/10 In-Ear Headphones - Green
White: Philips SHE3570WT/10 In-Ear Headphones - White
Black: Philips SHE3570BK/10 In-Ear Headphones - Black
Blue: Philips SHE3570BL/10 In-Ear Headphones - Blue
When you play your music through the Walkman app, press the right hand side menu button on the phone (4 straight lines) then select sound enhancements, then you can change the equaliser to whatever you want, personally I have mine on heavy. Before you go back though, if you tap the equaliser name on the top left of the screen and choose more, you go to a new screen, make sure that xLoud is ticked, then select headphone surround and you can put it on one of 3 settings, studio, club and concert hall. For my personal tastes I chose studio, but mess around with all 3 and choose which one you prefer.
Job done, loud as you like music with just a few seconds to change things
The camera in my opinion is absolutely rubbish, I have a dslr, and a point and shoot camera and try as I might, I cannot get superior image quality from this phone, they are ok now with a few tips and tricks but luckily I did not want the phone for the camera. If however you just want it for some brief snapshots for Facebook etc it should be ok.
Tips, always keep the scene on landscape, I don't know why but that seems to give the best image. In addition, the flash is ridiculously bright so do not use it unless you have too, as it will wash out all of your pics. I always have mine on off.
Now for focusing I have found that having it on single auto focus is the best and having it on auto for the white balance is also better.
If you press the menu ( 4 straight lines) button whilst in camera mode, there are 9 options, scroll the screen to the right and you get 3 more. If you press the capture method button and then select on screen button, that's the best way to get good results.
Also whilst you are there, press the data storage icon and change the storage to sd card because the app will batter your internal storage and you will have to keep deleting pics.
Best trick then whilst lining up a shot is to point the camera as you do, and then keep your finger on the camera icon button to take the picture, keep it pressed down until the shot is in focus and only then release your finger. If you do it without doing that all of your pictures will be blurry. There is also a little inbuilt trick to know when it is in focus too because once you have held it down long enough, the little square in the middle of the screen will go green to tell you when to release your finger.
Easy as pie right !!!
Ooo one more thing about the camera, just like the new spanky iPhone 5, it will take panorama pictures. Easy to switch over as well, whilst in camera mode, press the top right hand side icon (whilst the phone is upright) and you can select, normal, front camera, or sweep panorama. The results are brilliant, I will upload the one I took so that you can see the effects.
The phone comes with 50gb of free storage from The box but you need to download the free app to your phone to activate it. This expires on 31st December 2012, so if you haven't got it yet, I would recommend getting it, if just for your pictures and music.
The phone has gorilla glass which is super tough, but I very highly recommend you put on the free screen cover that comes with it because it is amazing at how quickly screens become damaged. Be patient though, because it takes some practice and I had air bubbles in mine the 1st time I tried it, but doing my partners, I did it perfectly.
One little thing for users of twitter, the hashtag. I nearly threw my phone up the wall trying to find this so I will share it with you. When you are typing a tweet and go to locate the hashtag and cant find it, it is there , press the 12!? Button on the bottom left of the keyboard and then the numbers and a few icons appear, but no hashtag, however if you look to the bottom left, just above the keyboard button you will see a button that says 1/2. Press it and woohoo hashtag plus the pound sign, brackets etc. It took me almost a week to figure that out, I had to ask someone on a forum how to do it grrrr.
The internet, absolutely fine for me, I have no problems with it at all, it is very limited in vertical mode though but the minute you flip it to horizontal, no issues at all.
I find copying and pasting text a pain though, you have to press and hold down the screen, then 2 little blue arrows appear, you change them to accommodate the txt and then go to the top of the screen and press the double page strangely and it copies.
Doesn't tell you it has copied though and then you can go onto somewhere else and press down on a blank page and keep your finger held down until the paste button appears and then press it. Absolutely ridiculous and one feature I would like to change.
Word to the wise, you cannot do this in Facebook for some reason, it will not allow you to copy text off the page no idea why..
Apps - Without doubt the best app on this phone is Google Maps. It's the full version which isn't available on other platforms, haha iPhone .
Plus it has free voice navigation, woooo no satnav needed. Bonus.
It has Navigation (Free, turn-by-turn GPS system), 3D Maps , Offline reliability ,Latitude ,App Store ,Traffic ,Driving directions, Layers. Love it, and I would happily pay for it.
Tune in Radio - The 2nd most used app on my phone. It's a digital radio app that can pick up any radio station in the world. My partner was super happy with this one because he is originally from Liverpool and can now sit and listen to Pete price at 10pm.
We have also sat and listened to college football, Nashville country radio stations, ryan seacrest on kissfm. Its amazing the radio stations you can find.
Angry Birds - boy is this addictive, I personally have Angry Birds Star Wars, Space, Seasons, Rio and the Original. Drives my partner nuts because I am always on it, his choice of tv bores me so I need something to occupy myself.
Jewels Star is good as well, a cheap version of bejewelled.
Other apps that are worth the download are 3D bowling, Bad Piggies and shot bubbles.
I am sure that there are many other things that you need to know but I will let you discover them for myself.
I think it is very unfair to compare this to the iPhone 5 or Samsung galaxy s3 which I had and hated btw and much prefer this one.
A worthy choice for the budget conscious and you can get some really great deals atm all for less than 20 quid.
Winner !!!
Oh one added little extra, the case for the Samsung Galaxy S3 fits this phone perfectly and I have bought several from the same seller.
He has them in different colours, I have 4 so far, cheap as chips and worth every penny, the Yellow is my favourite.
KC-Electronics Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 Dark Purple
KC-Electronics Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 Orange
KC-Electronics Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 Red
KC-Electronics Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 Green

5.0 out of 5 stars Good and cheap phone,
Recently get this nice phone. It's stylish,slim and great build phone. I was looking for a cheap smartphone on Android for calls,messages and wifi.
Pros: (just in my opinion)
+Great quality screen
+Gorilla Glass
+Size and weight
+Good sound quality (it's loud enough for me)
-Not fastest CPU and RAM (just 1Ghz)
-Does not support 720p videos even with another player from GooglePlay (it plays 480p clips-no big difference between 720p)
-Sometimes it's laggy (thanks to slow CPU)
Would not reccomend this phone for them who are looking for a powerful phone for HD games,HD videos and many many multiple tasks. This one is basic smartphone for a people who wants to get big and quality screen,for a good sound and cheap price. It could be your best first Android phone for a basic tasks!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Phone,
Much has been written in reviews and some online articles about the Sony Xperia J being laggy and under powered.The latest software release (no:11.0.75.A)appears to have addressed this issue.Fundamentally the phone has very good build quality - screen - sound etc. For the price it is indeed good value. There is a lot of info i.e tweaks , tips on the XDA Developers website.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a bad phone,
Having recently recieved this phone I am quite happy with what I have got so far
For the price, the screen is very good as it is colorful, bright and vibrant. For me the highlight if the phone is definately the music player; it has sony's walkman and Xloud technology to make the music very clear to listen to even at high volumes. No distortion is heard when you turn the volume up.
However the big set back is the low amount of ram onboard making it laggy at times. Yes it has a front facing camera for video calls but dont be fooled so easily; skype is very bad. I tried skyping my friend and it was very slow and ended up almost crashing the phone. You also have to be in bright daylight to use it as it is too dark indoors. So don't get the phone because of its front facing camera
The rear 5mp camera is ok for the odd shot but anyone who wants a good quality camera should stay away from it. Pictures come out grainy and the more you zoom in the worse the picture gets as they become unclear. However should you want to take a quick picture it is good but don't expect to capture those truly memerobale moments on this device.
Overall I think it is a decent phone for it's cheap price tag offering a good screen size and a sleek design that looks like a high end phone. It should not be used by gamers or photographers but for anyone looking for a decent phone that can play most games without a problem or surf the web occasionaly and text your friends it is the right phone for you.

Other WORKS AT AUCTION
Harrington Mann, Painting, Boy with Red Ball, England, 1913 Oil on canvas London, England, 1913 Harrington Mann (1864-1937) – Scottish painter Signed and dated lower right 'Harrington Mann 1913'''' In gold frame Dimensions: 124.4 x 78.7 cm Good condition Provenance: formerly property of the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Philadelphia; Private collection Great Britain (acquired at Christie's London in 2007) Particularly charming portrait of a child by the Scottish portrait painter Harrington Mann; similar portraits by the artist fetch up to €20,000 on the international auction market This portrait by Harrington Mann was painted in 1913 and depicts a little blond boy in front of a large armchair. With big blue eyes he is meeting the viewer''''s gaze. A red ball, with which the boy has probably played until just now, is lying on the floor. The finely composed background – here Mann''''s talent as a stage painter becomes evident – is painted in muted colors. Thus the figure of the boy in a bright white dress and with red lips as well as the colorful toy stand out before the background. Mann''''s color scheme shows the influence of James Abbott McNeill Whistler, while his bold brushwork is reminiscent of John Singer Sargent. Harrington Mann created numerous portraits of children, which he painted with devotion and a delightful charm. The painting is signed and dated lower right 'Harrington Man 1913''''. There is a label of a London antiques dealer with a delivery address for the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Philadelphia attached to the back of the stretcher. It is in good condition consistent with age; there is a small restoration backed with a patch of canvas in the upper center. Examination under UV light reveals spots of retouching. The frame shows light signs of wear. The framed work measures 141.5 x 94.5 cm, the stretcher measures 124.4 x 78.7 cm. Harrington Mann (1864-1937) Harrington Mann studied at the Glasgow School of Art and later at the Slade School of Fine Art in London. He continued his studies in Paris at the Académie Julian under the painters Gustave Boulanger and Jules-Joseph Lefebvre. Initially Mann painted primarily fishermen in Yorkshire. From 1885 he regularly exhibited at the Royal Academy. In the 1890s he gained recognition as a portraitist. In addition, he also worked as a decorative and glass painter. In 1900 the artist moved to London where he enjoyed increasing success with portraits of British nobility and royalty. Moreover in New York, where he opened a studio around the same time, his paintings also became very popular. In 1911 Harrington Mann was a founding member of the National Portrait Society. (tfa)

To start you will deal with interpreting and drawing diagrams to a particular scale. You will then learn to extract information from tables and charts. Finally you will learn to draw graphs using coordinate axes, which is a very important mathematical technique.

Top 10 Revenge Quotes From Episode 16′: "Girlfriend Keeps Poppin' up Like the Homicidal Stripper Version of Whack-a-Mole"
Bad news, gang: Our biggest TV crush went to jail this week, which made emotions aside from grief and despair hard to come by.
Luckily, Revenge can always be counted on for a few laughs, so check out the 10 best quotes of the episode!
10. Daniel greets Sammy: "You should take him for a walk."
Please, that dog can't even hobble.
9. Declan interrogates Charlotte: "Were you high last night?"
Someone get this kid a job at D.A.R.E.
8. Daniel's lawyer grills him: "You're rich. Who hates you?"
How about the 99 percent?
7. Nolan greets Jack: "Welcome to the cone of silence."
Nolan's hair is less of a cone and more of a coif, really.
6. Nolan gives testimony about Tyler: "The guy went all Benihana on my arm and tied me to a chair."
5. Emily comforts Daniel: "You're injured. You're traumatized."
Just like Bambi, come to think of it.
4. Conrad warns Victoria: "Life as we know it, Victoria, is over."
We assume he's talking about Lobster season in the Hamptons, right?
3. Emily real talks about Declan: "Finding Tyler's body must have been pretty awful."
Bloody chintees aren't a good look for anyone.
2. Nolan blows our minds: "Mea culpa, babe."
All apologies should be in Latin.
1. Nolan chats about Amanda: "Girlfriend keeps poppin' up like the homicidal stripper version of whack-a-mole."
Now that's a mole we'd love to whack.

This time around it is my best work. I try and gauge this based on how many people are viewing this thread at random checks throughout the day. But you're right, it woukd be more relevant in the rom hacks section. I just get a little intimidated over there. The problem is that new treads need to be approved, and even if it does get noticed, there's not often time before it's churned in a sea of other ideas. I know I shouldn't think this way, but if you try and convince me that it's worth it, I'll put my focus on it.

Great Towels
June 29, 2015
Since I stay only in IHG hotels, Ive found most to be equal in accommodation. I was unaware at the time of booking that the Candlewood Suites is an extended stay hotel. (no daily room cleaning). Otherwise the hotel was good and the towels were excellent with good water pressure.

Great location, great service, great room= great stay
June 11, 2015
This was a working trip with long hours and hard work. Coming back to this hotel was a very relaxing relief in the evening. The room was recently refurbished and was very comfortable. The star was very helpful with any request I had. Plenty of dinning choices within walking distance. The remodeling that is going on proved to be no problem at any time. This is a great place to stay when in this area.

Why a 50mm Lens is your new Best Friend
You may have heard the term "Nifty Fifty" before. If you haven't, it is usually a reference to the Canon 50mm f1.8 lens. But for the purpose of this article I'm going to use it synonymously with any prime 50mm lens.

Product description
You must let blood to get blood! It's Arizona, 1867. As consort to resurrected Mayan goddess Ixchel, hexslinger 'Reverend' Asher Rook has founded 'Hex City' - the first place in all of human history where magicians can live and work together safely. But this tenuous peace is threatened by the approach of Rook's former lover, Chess Pargeter, bent on revenge over Rook's betrayal, as he kills his way toward the very same spot, dragging Pinkerton agent-turned-outlaw Ed Morrow along with him. Because Chess, sacrificed in Ixchel's name, has become far more than just a hex: his very presence has torn a crack in the world, remaking everything around him. And as the cycle of Chess's power approaches its climax, Chess, Morrow, and a young spiritualist named Yancey Colder - caught up in Chess's vendetta - will all have to shed yet more blood as they face down his mysterious patron demon, known only as the Enemy...along with every other enemy Chess has already made along the way.

text: In a peculiar move by New York Knicks owner James Dolan, he re-hired Isiah Thomas to be president and a part-owner of the WNBA's New York Liberty. This has Anucha Brown Sanders's name reverberating in the sports world administrative offices and locker rooms. In 2007, Brown Sanders was entitled to $11.6 million dollars in damages from Madison Square Garden (MSG) and James Dolan after suing for sexual harassment and being unfairly treated in a hostile environment.

Wheat-Free Vegan Pizza Crusts
Fire up your best pizza yet with one of these perfect pre-made vegan crusts from Venice Bakery.
Pizza, our dear friend: in the words of Prince (and Sinead O'Connor), "nothing compares 2 u." We've enjoyed you in many vegan forms now: thin-crust and deep-dish, loaded and minimalist, traditional and un-traditional alike (Mexican Tater Tot Pizza, we're lookin' at you). And we've enjoyed you delivered piping hot to our door, served on a silver platter at our local vegan-friendly pizzeria, or fresh from our own oven, the latter of which has bright new prospects since we tasted Venice Bakery's amazing dairy-free pre-made crusts. These gluten-free (they're as soft and doughy as their classic counterparts) bases for your cheesy creation are available in a variety of sizes, thicknesses, and herby varieties, so your ultimate pizza opus is only a few minutes and about 450 degrees away. 'Za la la la la la la la la means we love you, Venice Bakery.
