Bernice Ruth "Byrni"
Learn about sponsoring this memorial...
May 4, 1930
Cook County
Illinois, USA
Jun. 24, 2007
Nez Perce County
Idaho, USA
Bernice (Byrni) Darrington went home to be with her Lord Sunday, June 24, 2007.
She was born May 4, 1930, in Chicago, Ill. Bernice spent most of her childhood in Minnesota, where she met, fell in love with, and married Donald Richard Darrington. Bernice and Don had seven daughters, 10 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
If you were to ask any one of her seven daughters, each one would tell you "I'm her favorite." Bernice had the unique ability to make everyone feel special. The family home was filled with love, laughter and singing.
Bernice led a full and active life. She treasured her family above all and was especially proud of her role as a mother and homemaker. She was a talented artist and found much joy in her painting and teaching others to paint. She loved singing in the church choir, as well as the Sweet Adelines. She was extremely humble about her accomplishments but she was particularly proud of going back to school and earning her bachelor's degree from Lewis-Clark State College, managing Aquatic World and Pets in Spokane and owning her own business, The Little Health Food Store.
Bernice loved reading, creative writing, her flower gardens, a cup of tea with Marye Barker, her many travels around the world with Charlotte Lane, especially their trip to the Holy Lands and her dog Clancy.
Bernice was dedicated to serving the Lord. She loved and treasured all of her brothers and sisters in Christ. She was a member of Tammany View Baptist Church and was instrumental in the establishment of the Pomeroy Baptist Church through her mission work.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Don; her sister, Catherine Smith; and son-in-law, Laurie Laurance.
She is survived by her children, Peggy Laurance, April DeBord, June and Rob Smith, Susan-anne and Bill Liedkie, Anita and Mike Bradley, Yvonne Bezotte, Kathleen and Scott Eppinger; and her brother, Clarence Bourland. She was cherished by her grandchildren, Melanie Guier and husband Dave, Cliff and Chad Miller, Shawna Harvey and husband Charlie, Crystal and Marc Eppinger, Jessica Pruett and husband Zaughn, Justin and Nick Liedkie and Vanessa Hooper, her great-grandchildren, Michael and Josh Guier, Warren and Jeremiah Miller, Beth and Angel Miller and Jesse and Marie Harvey.
Funeral arrangements for Bernice Darrington are with Malcom's Brower-Wann Funeral Home in Lewiston. Visitation hours will be from 1-5 p.m. Friday, June 29 and from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, June 30, at Malcom's Funeral Home. A grave side service is scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday, June 30, at Lewis-Clark Memorial Gardens. Following the grave side service, a celebration of Bernice's life will take place at Tammany View Baptist Church in Lewiston at 2:30 p.m.

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?

15 Mar 2012 17:12 GMT | Europe, Italy
Italian police have arrested a Moroccan man on suspicion of plotting an attack against a synagogue in the city of Milan.
The chief suspect, identified only as a 20-year-old worker who had lived in Italy since age six, was arrested in the northern city of Brescia, 100km east of Milan.
The suspect was said to have had details of the synagogue and plans for an attack on his computer.
Meanwhile, in Britain, Scotland Yard detained a 40-year-old woman who had been in contact with the suspect to determine if she played any role in the alleged plot.
Anna Maria Cancellieri, the Italian interior minister, said that the matter was being treated "very seriously", although there was no terror alert in particular.
Lucio Carluccio, the head of Brescia police, said anti-terrorism investigators identified the suspect from internet traffic, including a Facebook page on how to assemble explosives and references in other contexts to a holy war.
The suspect had been under investigation for several months, but police arrested him after noting that he was using an internet application to zoom in on areas around the synagogue in a way that suggested he was examining the security, not browsing casually, said Carluccio.
'Particular alarm'
Authorities confiscated two flags emblazoned with Nazi swastikas at the suspect's residence, along with computers, USB drives, detailed descriptions of how to build a car bomb and the quantities of chemicals needed to make an explosive.
In Britain, Scotland Yard said the 40-year-old woman was detained in the early hours of Thursday on suspicion of collecting information useful to terrorism.
Authorities were searching the residence where she was arrested, and Scotland Yard was in contact with Italian authorities to determine if there was a link between the woman and the alleged plot.
Italy's interior minister, who is in charge of security services, played down any "particular alarm" about terrorism but said the arrest of the Moroccan was a "very serious activity".
The arrest warrant for the Moroccan was issued by authorities in Sardinia, who first identified the suspect in the course of another investigation.

Recent San Juan Area reviews
"We loved our recent visit to Puerto Rico and Aquatika! The owner Rolando was wonderful to work with and I would recommend this unit to anyone. The unit: Clean, spacious, as good or better than photos. There were plenty of towels, well-stocked kitchen, boogie boards and pool toys. Air conditioning in the bedrooms was nice, and the rest of the apartment had a good cross-breeze when the windows were opened up. Loved that roof terrace!!! This unit is towards the front of the complex not too far from the beach. Comfortable beds and the extra half bath upstairs was a plus. Aquatika: Very quiet, not many people around during the week, with only a few more on Sunday. Maintenance crew seemed to rake the beach and clean the pools every morning. Landscaping on ground was lovely. Kiddie pool with slide and fountains was only turned on on Sunday the week we were there. Many times we had a pool or hot tub all to ourselves, other times we shared with other renters, several of whom we return visitors to Aquatika. I would love to be a return visitor sometime!! Also, security seemed very tight - our group of 4 women felt very safe here. The beach at Aquatika was nice, a couple of days it was fairly calm and a couple of days it was a little rougher and we could attempt to boogie board. Loiza: We did not really spend any time in Loiza, but we found the location to be a good home base for visiting Old San Juan, Pinones, Luquillo, and Fajardo. Loiza is only 10 minutes or so off Highway 3 where you will find lots of chains (Wal-mart, Walgreens, Burger King, etc). We we very happy with our choice to stay just east of San Juan."Guest: Julie W. Date of Stay: February 2015 Review Submitted: February 18, 2015View listing
"Convenient N/S, N/P, apt with ocean view from bedroom. Beautiful Ocean Park Beach steps away from apt and 15 minute walk to restaurants and shops in Condado. 5 minute walk to Ocean Park restaurants and near City bus stop to go to Old San Juan. Staff friendly and very efficient. A/C worked great, but it was nice to leave the windows open and hear the waves at night. Comfortable bed and kitchen great for those who like to cook some of their own meals. I'm glad we chose the guest house at Numero Uno for our 1st visit to San Juan."Guest: Snow Relief Date of Stay: February 2015 Review Submitted: March 11, 2015View listing

San Juan Area Travel Tips
San Juan Vacation Rentals Offer Spanish History in the Midst of an American Paradise
Puerto Rico has long been known as a tropical oasis for travelers from all over the world. San Juan vacation rentals offer the ideal opportunities to experience the luxurious beaches as well as several local attractions.
Reserve San Juan Vacation Rentals and Relax
Many San Juan accommodations are located directly on the beach for easy access to several water sports. Did you know that San Juan is the oldest city in the U.S.? Take a stroll in the surrounding communities and take photos of local architectural specimens. Several resorts within walking distance of San Juan accommodations also offer spa and salon services for special pampering. Take a look at the many beaches available, and find your choice in Puerto Rico resorts for the entire family to enjoy.
San Juan Accommodations in Old San Juan
If you're a history buff, a stay in Old San Juan is a must when reserving San Juan vacation rentals. You'll find plenty of commercial businesses in this area that are 465 years old. Visitors in San Juan accommodations enjoy walking the cobblestone streets and viewing the many Spanish buildings from the 17th century. This area is extremely popular among tourists, as Puerto Rico resorts offer casinos and shopping in the midst of this tropical paradise.
Take Your Family on an Adventure near Puerto Rico Resorts
There is so much to see here that there's no excuse to be bored during your stay in San Juan vacation rentals. No matter where you stay, you can spend a day perusing local museums and art galleries, or even touring the parks full of tropical animals and plants. San Juan accommodations are often located on the beach for easy access to the beautiful shoreline, though you may also find Puerto Rico resorts within walking distance of several historic Spanish forts too.

The southernmost island in the Norwegian Svalbard archipelago, all 172 km2 of Bear Island (Bjørnøya) is a protected nature reserve. Uninhabited and undeveloped save for a manner weather station at the north end, the pristine island is home only to its unique collection of flora and fauna. Contrary to its name, you won't find bears here! At the southernmost tip of the island, near-vertical cliffs jet into blue sky; rugged rock columns jut from the sea. Bear Island's stunning cliffs are home to some of the largest seabird colonies in the North America, making it an ornithologist's dream.

Posted by Sam-Adams
Sam, you could say the exact thing about the rich team owners.
Look at all the stuff they get for free to help operate their businesses - stadiums, transportation and infrastructure upgrades, military fly-overs that probably cost around $100K per game, long-term ( 10 years) local and state business tax exemptions, special financing rates that you and I could never get on a business loan, etc., etc., etc. The owners BEACH about not making enough money all the time, but they are almost always making the most money. If you don't like richly paid people complaining about not getting enough, you should hate the owners as much as the players.
As to the dreaded claim of "SOCIALISM!" regarding the proposed 20-year healthcare package, you are thus labeling Mike Ditka a Socialist. Mike Ditka...the pronounced arch-conservative who has dedicated years to this cause and knows all too well the real physical "risk" of playing pro football.
Which brings me to my last point on this board: You love it when Brady throws a 40-yard pass downfield into double-coverage to Moss, who catches it with one outstretched hand, jukes the safety, then runs it another 15 yards for a TD. A thing of beauty. Eleven players contributed to the play, and some will only make a million in their career, a career that may have taken them 15, 16 or 17 years of hard work to build, and will almost certainly leave them physically scarred, maybe brain damaged. You scream, you celebrate, you yell that you love Brady, or Moss, or Hernandez for throwing a key block...but then you hate them when they get paid. Why?

Beverly Hills Hotel Exec Says Hotel Is Being 'Unfairly Picked On'
UPDATED: The CEO of parent company the Dorchester Collection insists the Hollywood hotspot, which has lost several high-profile events in recent days over the company's connection to an anti-gay law instituted in Brunei, has done nothing wrong.
Amid protests against the Beverly Hills Hotel, the CEO of parent company the Dorchester Collection is saying the Hollywood hotspot doesn't deserve to be targeted despite the company being owned by the Sultan of Brunei, who has instituted a severe new penal code based on Sharia law that calls for death by stoning for homosexuals and adulterers.
Christopher Cowdray told CBS This Morning that the hotel "has done absolutely nothing wrong."

"I feel totally unfairly picked on," Cowdray said in a report that aired on Tuesday's edition of the morning show. "All they are doing is hurting a local business."
Cowdray declined to comment on Brunei's new law.
What began as a grassroots movement two weeks ago, with designers asking their Instagram and Twitter followers to boycott the Dorchester Collection of hotels, which the Beverly Hills Hotel is part of, has gained momentum, with prominent organizations dropping plans to hold dinners and fundraisers at the landmark hotel.

On Tuesday, the Beverly Hills city council passed a resolution urging the Government of Brunei and governments with similar anti-gay policies to divest their property investments in the city, The Beverly Hills Courier reported.
On Monday, the Motion Picture & Television Fund said that it would not hold its glitzy Oscar-eve fundraising party, the Night Before, at the hotel. Other events that have moved from the hotel to other locations include the Feminist Majority Foundation's Global Women's Rights Awards, the Independent School Alliance for Minority Awards and a Teen Line fundraiser honoring Sony Pictures Entertainment co-chairman Amy Pascal. The Outgiving Conference, a meeting of LGBT donors, was the first event to pull up stakes. And the Human Rights Campaign Fund has urged other groups to follow suit.
The Hollywood Reporter has also notified the hotel that it will no longer hold its annual Women in Entertainment breakfast there.
The Dorchester Collection is owned by Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah through the Brunei Investment Agency.

American Dad: Tropes F to J
open/close all folders
- Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong: An early Running Gag replaced by New Powers as the Plot Demands.
- Failed Attempt at Drama: "I'M LOOKING FOR PEACHES!"
- Fairytale Wedding Dress: Hayley when she was Brainwashed.
- Fall Back Marriage Pact: Turns out Stan has one with his dentist in case he ends up outliving Francine.
- Family-Unfriendly Aesop: In Can I Be Frank (With You), the ending invokes this In-Universe with guest star Jon Hamm talking about how domestic "disputes" are none of your damn business, so keep your eyes down and don't get involved.
- Fan Dumb: Mostly The Monomaniac, with a hint of Willfully Blind. In one episode, Stan becomes a fanatic of the band My Morning Jacket, revolving his life over them. When Hayley tries to show him other bands, he calls her a "musical slut".
- Fanservice: Francine and Stan both fill out the MILF and DILF roles well. Each get their fair share of sexy storylines including Francine as a scantily clad Bond girl in the James Bond spoof "Tearjerker" and Stan becoming a stripper in "G-String Circus". As a matter of fact, the show has a tendency to feature more strippers (both male and female) than any of Seth MacFarlane's other shows. Special shout outs to Hayley who once became a, you guessed it, stripper; a buff Jesus Christ who rises out of a swimming pool in tiny speedos (seriously, they even made sure his bulge moves around while he walked on the water); Greg and Terry who like to relax in speedos; and the blonde waitresses who engage in sexy antics in the background of a diner while Steve and Roger try to write a porno movie.
- Fawlty Towers Plot: Done in the space of a few seconds in Lincoln Lover when Stan's homophobia is uncovered:Bret: Your son stopped by the office today and dropped off this.[Bret holds up a picture of Stan and Pat Robertson smiling]Stan: So it's me and hatemonger Pat Robertson. I met him at some party.[Bret unfolds it; it's an "Anti-Gay Palooza" pamphlet]Stan: I was just walking through.[Bret unfolds it again; it was held and funded by Stan]Stan: It was just a momentary lapse of judgment.[Bret unfolds it again; it's the seventh annual convention]Stan: (beat) My mind's a blank.
- Faux Affably Evil: Roger when he's in a manipulative mood. He can act nice if he wants to be at times, before stabbing you in the back and/or abandoning you.
- Felony Misdemeanor: Stan makes Steve participate in a Vietnam War reenactment in order to make him sing the National Anthem with more passion. After the reenactment, Steve starts acting as if he actually fought in the War when he suffers from "war flashbacks".
Francine: MY ROOOOOAAAAST!!!!
- In Not Particularly Desperate Housewives:
Francine: You're overreacting...
- In Threat Levels, when Stan is outraged at liberal reporters moving in:
Stan: Overreacting? OVERREACTING?! (headbutts a hole in wall)
Bullock: They're using [our torture budget] to teach inner city kids (sobbing) to read!
- The CIA generally qualify for this:
[Stan, Duper, Jackson and Sanders smash up everything nearby, while Bullock picks up Dick and throws him through a window]
- Fetish: Cornerstone of any McFarlane product for quick and easy gags, some examples:
- Bullock has a Groin Attack fetish.
- While it's never explicitly stated to be such, Steve has a recurring fascination with robotic women that is usually treated as a real character trait rather than a joke.
- In the episode I Am The Walrus Principal Lewis says that he works at the pottery center to pay for his watch fetish.
- Principal Lewis: Now, if only I could tell time...
- In Hot Tub Stan pays quite a lot of attention to Francine's feet...
- Cee Lo Green: Now he's got lady foot in his mouth!
- Bullock has a Groin Attack fetish.
- 555: The call-in number for the CIA's donation line in Phantom of the Telethon. Also, Roger's pretend psychiatrist number in Widowmaker.
- Film Noir: Star Trek includes a soft trumpet theme in the background, a (seemingly) Posthumous Narration, and heavy references to Sunset Blvd.
- Flanderization: Roger's antics used to be quite varied, relating to his drinking, scheming with Steve, alien biology, watching trashy reality television, etc. Now virtually everything he does is based on his role playing/dress-up obsession.
- Truthfully, he still uses his alternative roles on occasion, just his more "out-open" lifestyle requires him to use his dress-ups alongside it.
- His Jerk Ass traits also got Flanderized to sociopathic extremes, possibly to balance the other characters' more sympathetic qualities later on.
- Originally, Principal Lewis had slightly quirky moments every now and then. By the sixth season, he's less a character and more a way to get his voice actor Kevin Michael Richardson to say the weirdest shit the writers can think of. This isn't at all a bad thing. In fact, this is lampshaded by Steve when Lewis offers to sell him a belt buckle depicting Tweety Bird with bloodshot eyes and a joint in his hand, saying "God is Dead". Steve finds it hard to believe that a person like him is an educator. Lewis states that his job as Principal is more administrative than educational.
- To add on, Principal Lewis had moments where it was implied he had a checkered past, but overall was a responsible and respectable educator. But more recent seasons show him as crazy, drug abusing, and wildly irresponsible.
- Klaus has also become more of a Butt Monkey over time.
- At this point, Stan is as dumb as Peter Griffin which stems from him falling victim to Aesop Amnesia and how his antics put his family in danger every other episode. Recent episodes have also had him doing and saying things that one would expect from Peter.
- This is one of the reasons Stan is such a designated villain as the writers regularly flanderize either Stan or someone else within the episode just so Stan can learn a lesson. For example, so Stan can learn how hard it is to live off of minimum wage, he had to lose literally a lifetime of experience of living off a budget. Later Francine is no longer Bi the Way so that Stan can learn to listen to her.
- Flag Bikini: Obama in a flag speedo on the episode "An Incident at Owl Creek."
- Flashback Cut: Used to embellish character backstories mostly.
- In the pilot episode, they were used to provide random gags in the same fashion as Family Guy; luckily, after that episode, the writers banned cutaways in an effort to both distinguish the series from its predecessor and to focus on more character-based humor. It worked...though starting with Season 8's "Naked to the Limit, One More Time", later episodes would slip back into the kind of bizarre non sequiturs that Family Guy was known for (cf. the Pizza Poppers commercial on "A Boy Named Michael")
- Flashed Badge Hijack:
- Stan once proclaims "Official CIA business" to do this to a woman and her sports car. Before she can say anything, he grabs her and tosses her out of the car, then drives off. A moment later he returns and throws her wheelchair out next to her before driving off again.
- "42-Year-Old Virgin" has Stan trying to enter a carnival to catch up with the villain of the episode, a child molester who's kidnapped Steve and his friends, and arguing with the ticket booth to be let in. After driving to the store, buying a can of soda, driving back, and chugging the entire thing to get a discount on the ticket, his CIA buddies and Roger arrive, the former two getting in for free by simply flashing their CIA badges (to which Stan replies "that bums me out"). Then it's taken to parodying lengths when Roger follows them in by simply flashing his wallet and identifying himself as a wallet-owner.
- Foil: The relationship between Steve and Roger, with Steve usually being Roger's foil. They are similar in many ways but different enough to inevitably disagree, leading to the derailment of their schemes and usually some kind of fight.
- Also Stan and Hayley, who both tend to be similarly minded people on the opposite ends of the political spectrum.
- Also Stan and Jeff, who were both raised by really crappy parents in their youth. Stan grew up to be an ultra-conservative, Jerk with a Heart of Gold who tries to take down anything against his morals. Jeff grew up to be a decent (if Cloud Cuckoo Lander and stoner) man, being able to take any levels of abuse and doing anything to help anyone. Naturally, the two will butt heads when trying to interact.
- Follow That Car: Hilariously subverted when in one episode, Stan hops into the back of a car intending to follow out the trope as normal, only to realize after a second he's in the back seat of his own car.
- Forgot I Could Fly: Stan frequently seems to forget that he's carrying a gun.
- Forgotten Anniversary: The episode "Francine's Flashback" is about the second time Stan forgot his anniversary.
- For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself: In All About Steve, Roger is so desperate for human contact that the only place he can go outside the house is a sci-fi convention. Of course, this was before he became a master of disguise.
- Foreshadowing: In "Joint Custody", we learn that Stan looked up to his mother as a role model, which he admits set him back quite a bit. It's not until season 3's "Oedipal Panties" that we learn just how far it set him back.
- Another, more subtle one occurs in "Finances With Wolves". When stopping the construction equipment from bulldozing a tiny patch of forest, Hayley gets trampled by a herd of wildlife. One of these animals is the wolf that will later cause troubles for Roger and Steve in the episode's B-plot.
- Former Teen Rebel: Francine is continuously shown to have been a crazy and promiscuous party girl when she was younger until she met the ultra-Conservative Stan, whereupon The Power of Love made her choose a button-down life instead.
- In S2 Ep10 "Bush Comes To Dinner" then-President George W. Bush brings this trope up to Stan after he angrily tells Hayley that she's a lost cause. Bush reveals that he was a very wild party boy when he was younger (which, sadly, is Truth in Television) and that Hayley, due to her rebellious ways, is not a lost cause, but is on the track to becoming President of the United States.
- For Want of a Nail: Stan convincing Martin Scorsese in the past to give up drugs forces Stan to jump ahead a few years and shoot Reagan to prevent the USSR from taking over the USA. Specifically the timeline of changed events is: Stan convinces Scorsese to give up drugs, meaning he never makes Taxi Driver. Meaning John Hinkley, Jr. never becomes obsessed with Jodie Foster, and so never tries to assassinate Ronald Reagan to impress her. Reagan, in turn, loses his re-election to Walter Mondale due to not having the added popularity from surviving an assassination attempt. And Mondale, in turn, hands the United States over to the Soviet Union two months into his Presidency.
- Freeze-Frame Bonus: Roger's golden turd is visible in the new title sequence (from Season 4 on).
- Friend to All Living Things: Francine has a singing version in "In Country... Club" which is then subverted when she drowns the bird singing with her.
- Furry Fandom: Referenced during a sequence in One Little Word."I'm a squirrel and that feels fantastic."
- Future Imperfect: How Stan imagines life after his death in Stanny Slickers II: The Legend Of Ollie's Gold.
- Gag Boobs: In Helping Handis, some CIA-supplied steroids cause Steve, and later Stan, to sprout comically large breasts. And yes, it's both hilarious and extremely Squicky.
- Gay Conservative: Explored extensively in Lincoln Lover, where Greg is revealed to be a Log Cabin Republican... and Stan temporarily becomes one.
- Geek: Steve, Barry, Snot and Toshi are a Four Man Band comprised entirely of geeks who adore Dungeons & Dragons, Star Trek, and World of Warcraft-esque computer games. Thankfully the show doesn't resort to making any one of them a full-time Butt Monkey.
- Geek Reference Pool: Pretty much every stereotypical geek interest that's out there, Steve has been shown as being into it at some point.
- Geeky Turn-On: Akiko trick-or-treats as Chun-Li, which Steve finds very... happy. Though given Chun-Li's general attire, it may be a turn on in general.Steve: Hommina hommina hommina BONER!
- Gender Incompetence: Averted for the most part. Stan is actually a pretty intelligent and efficient operative in many aspects, but is prone to making snap decisions and his judgement can often be clouded by his political views. Meanwhile Francine is (usually) more rational and has noticeable hidden talents and intellect, but something of a Cloud Cuckoo Lander. Likewise, neither Hayley nor Steve seems especially more intelligent or competent than the other.
- Gene Hunting: In Big Trouble in Little Langley, Stan gets tired of dealing with Francine's adoptive Chinese parents and goes searching for her biological parents.
- The Generalissimo: Roger briefly impersonates one of these.
- Generation Xerox: Stan and Hayley. Despite being polar opposites in their political and social views, they're exactly the same. They're both controlling, obsessed with being right, and tend to treat their partners like crap.
- Genre Blindness: Steve, who lies on the opposite side of the Idealism-Cynicism scale to the rather dark series; for example, during the conclusion of Brains, Brains, and Automobiles:Snot: If only we could thank that magic, mystery underwear salesman.
Steve: Oh, I don't think we've seen the last of him...
[Cut to the salesman sitting in a boxcar train, pale and with a needle hanging out of his arm; he falls out of the train and into a river, where he sinks.]
- George Jetson Job Security: Stan has been suspended or lost his CIA job several times, yet he's always right back at work the very next episode. Sometimes it's explained in-story, sometimes it isn't.
- The Ghost: Gwen, the biological daughter of Francine's adoptive parents. Based off what we've heard she's very attractive (Stan calls her "Hot Gwen"), but also very stupid.
- She finally appears in the episode "Now and Gwen". She is indeed beautiful but more larcenous than stupid.
- For a long time, Bullock's wife fit this trope, though she was eventually seen in One Little Word.
- Glad I Thought of It: The CIA telethon episode.
- Godwin's Law: Invoked by a man who's just been framed by Stan, and revealed to be a member of the Aryan Brotherhood:
- "What do you think this is, Nazi Germany? Oh wait, that'd be AWESOME!"
- Going Native: Stan often ends up going full throttle into any subculture he is thrust towards, such as illegal street racing or gay lifestyle. Francine lampshades this in Stan of Arabia.
- Gonk: The Summoner from "Lost in Space."
- Good People Have Good Sex: Stan and Francine seem to have a healthy, active sex life.
- Although Stan doesn't believe in the female orgasm.
- That proves to be more Francines problem then Stans due to being All Take and No Give.
- Although Stan doesn't believe in the female orgasm.
- Gorn: Has indulged in this as of late, though thankfully not as much as Family Guy, though time will tell whether or not it goes too far.
- Gosh Dang It to Heck!: In Ricky Spanish:Roger: What the Dickens? I thought you knocked him out, Daniel. [shaking fist] WHAT THE DICKENS?!
- Goth: Debbie Hyman (see Perky Goth below) is the de facto leader of a brood of goths, who haunt a candlelit stairwell. And believe that dancing to Joy Division is enough to halt a stampede of jocks.
- Grail in the Garbage: In "Return of the Bling," Roger finds what is apparently the One Ring near the site of a plane crash...and then promptly throws it away.
- Roger: "It turns you invisible in the middle of nowhere? What good is that? Where were you when I farted at Danny's wedding?"
- Grandfather Clause: The "Terror Alert" indicator on the family Fridge is a relic from the 2000s, but is still there in the 2010s despite the fact that Obama retired it. In newer episodes it's missing its arrow as a subtle joke.
- Granola Girl: Hayley.
- Gratuitous Spanish: That weird song Roger listens to during the chase scene in Roy Rogers McFreely, which is set to the tune of the Mexican Hat Dance and full of nonsensical Spanish phrases.
- Grey and Gray Morality: Stan vs his Conscious in "Cock of the Sleepwalk" while killing 100 people had clearly affected Stan as he himself lampshaded the fact that Good Stan was too nice since he got Stan fired there was no money coming in to supplement the excessive amount he was giving away. In the end its hard to know who to root for as while Stan did intentionally put his family in danger to prove a point. Good Stans approach would have eventually ruined them financially.
- This also leads to another Broken Aesop about how Stan is the only one in the family who isnt allowed to spend money excessively.
- Groin Attack: Stan and Steve are subjected to one every now and then.. usually by each other for ruining a father-son moment by mentioning it. Stan's special CIA martial arts training specifically focuses on kicking people in the groin.
Francine: Got ya!Stan: *huddled over in pain on the floor* Punk!
- Francine chops Stan in the nuts when the two of them playfully dash down the stairs to go answer the door. She said he answered it the last time, and it was her turn.
- Also invoked in Stanny-Boy and Frantastic about four times.
- Growling Gut: This happens to Stan, Roger, and Hideki in "Independent Movie," not from hunger, but because their guts were telling them how to be successful in their new invention idea.
Tom: He's right, you can't see a guy get hit in the groin and not laugh.
- It happens to Roger again at the beginning of "Wheels and the Legman and the Mystery of Grandpa's Key" due to the restaurant Roger ate at prior to the episode.
- Guns Akimbo: Roger vs. the drug dealers. Stan has done the double once or twice too. Francine even dual wields machetes in the pilot. ("If I die you must protect the clan!")Tom: He's right, you can't see a guy get hit in the groin and not laugh.
- Hair Trigger Sound Effect: A wolf howl could be heard every time a character mentioned Karl Rove *howl* during "Deacon Stan, Jesus Man". Stan and Steve can both hear it, flashing a look of wonder and worry in their eyes.
- Hand Wave: Stan has an extreme fear of seagulls. The plot of Choosey Wives Choose Smith requires him to interact extensively with seagulls. How to solve the problem?Stan: Hey, there is good news. I overcame my fear of seagulls. (casually takes a bite out of a dead seagull)
- Happily Married: Hayley and Jeff. The events of the 2010 Christmas episode indicate it may actually last.
- By the end of season 6, this one has been averted and played straight in regards to status quo. Averted in that they're still married and have overcome a few marital issues, and played straight in that the show rarely brings up the fact that they are indeed married (on the infrequent occasions that Hayley and Jeff even appear at all). It's shown that Jeff has seemed to move in with the Smiths, and sleeps in Hayley's room, but most of the time he's nowhere to be seen.
- Happiness in Slavery: Paco and his entire family while working far below minimum wage in Stan's American Dream Factory. Notably, the relationship changes from Stan not caring to one of great appreciation when he sees how much they love his country, whereby he decides to do them a favour.
- Happy Holidays Dress: The blue, winter themed dress the Ghost of Christmas Past (formerly a tooth fairy) wears.
- Healing Hands: Spoofed in the pilot when Roger reveals his race have no such ability. ("And don't expect me to bring him back with that E.T. finger thing because that's a giant load of crap!")
- Healing Potion: Roger uses one on Stan to regrow his legs, after they've been bitten off by a polar bear.note
- Henpecked Husband: Buckle the Mountain Man, married to Shari.
- Hentai: Referenced in the episode Iced, Iced Babies, where Stan goes to have a vasectomy from a Japanese company, and is asked if he wants to bank some sperm just in case; in addition to a sample cup, Stan is offered two magazines: "Buxom Octopus Woman" and "Disobedient School Prefect".
- In another episode Stan hides in a whale's skeleton:Stan: Let me outta here! *holds up a squid* Squidface does horrible things to me during lights out! Unspeakable things!
- In another episode Stan hides in a whale's skeleton:
- Hillbilly Moonshiner: One of the Christmas specials has Roger learning how to make moonshine from a hillbilly named Bob Todd after his alcoholism gets so bad that the stuff at the liquor store can't satisfy him. The liquor store clerk told him the guy was a blind four-armed satyr, which he isn't but the hallucinations from his booze make him look like that.
- Historical Character Confusion: Stan tries to encourage his son and says:"Just look at Helen Keller. Deaf, dumb and blind, and she wrote that whole diary in her little attic during World War II. She doesn't sound so dumb to me."
- Historical In-Joke: Ever wondered if George Washington Carver really invented peanut butter? See Black Mystery Month. There are other allusions throughout the show too, such as the truth behind Ollie North's gold, Reagan's assassination attempt and the rise and fall of disco music in the 1970s.
- Also played with in The Best Christmas Story Never. Stan goes back in time to stop Jane Fonda from ruining Christmas and inadvertently sets in motion a chain of events which leads to America being taken over by the Soviets. To put the timeline right, he must shoot President Reagan.
- In this universe, Francine, after having a one-night stand with apparently the entire band, inspired Dexys Midnight Runners to write the song "Come on Eileen" (they couldn't remember her name).
- Hoist by His Own Petard: In one episode, Hayley needs internship credits and works at Roger's bar in the attic; when Roger refuses to sign her papers, the two get into an Instant Costume Change battle, rapidly cycling through personas. Hayley resolves the conflict by dressing as Roger and saying "I'll never sign your form, Hayley!", prompting Roger to dress as Hayley and say "Well then I'll just forge your signature!" After she walks off with the signed form, Roger asks "What just happened? Did I win?"
- In "May the Best Stan Win", Stan defeats Cyborg Stan using one of the ludicrous made-up martial arts moves that Cyborg Stan taught him to keep Stan busy so he could try to steal Francine.
- Homage: Steve's plan in Bar Mitzvah Shuffle is presented in the exact same fashion as plans are presented in Ocean's Eleven.
- The poison drinking scene in With Friends Like Steve's is a direct nod to The Princess Bride.
- In I Can't Stan You, Stan sends people to the corn field motel when he overhears them criticizing him.
- The plot of Hot Water references Little Shop of Horrors, made obvious by the name of the store Stan buys the tub from - Little Shop Of Hot Tubs.
- House Wife: Francine is an extreme parody of this. In the Thanksgiving episode she was obsessed with having the most number of burners on her stove, and upon entering an enormous magnificent mansion, all she can think about are the burners.
- Ho Yay: An In-Universe example kicks off the plot of "Lincoln Lover"; Stan makes a play about Lincoln's bodyguard. He intends the characters to be Heterosexual Life-Partners but includes lines like "I was his bodyguard...and he was my everything!" and ends with him recreating the famous scene from The Bodyguard with Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" playing. It's a smash hit with the local gay Log Cabin Republicans.
- Hug and Comment: Roger does this to Francine.Francine: (Hugging Roger) Oh, Roger! You're back.
Roger: And you're starting to get lunch lady arms.
- Hugh Mann: After tricking Stan into switching bodies in "Da Flippity-Flop," Klaus claims that he'll be able to flawlessly impersonate him. However, after saying only "Hi!" to Francine and Hayley, they immediately know what's happened.
- Humongous Mecha: In Rough Trade, complete with Billions of Buttons. Which Stan has no hope of piloting - it was All There in the Manual, but that was destroyed by monkeys. Monkeys with amazing hairstyles. You heard me.
- Francine has also has an encounter with one in 1600 Candles when she uses brownies as leverage and excites Stan's co-worker.
- Hurricane of Puns: Frequent in Wheels and the Legman parts, such as when they interrogate Klaus:Roger: Something about your story seems... fishy.
Steve: [...] Klaus, youre going to face the scales of Lady Justice!
Roger: We know youre gill-ty!
Steve: Like it or not, fish, youre on the hook for this one!
Roger: Your days of crime are H2Over!
Steve: That doesn't even make sense!
Roger: Fish live in water!
- Even brought back up in their own episode "The Case of Grandpas Key"; Stan plays a Composite Character of Wheels and The Legman. Since he is Steves dad and he rides a novelty unicycle, he names his character Poppa Wheelie.
- Hypocritical Humor: Barry has commented on Debbie's weight a few times and once said that fat people disgusted him.
- "We get it! You're a Jewish farmer!" Says Toshi, whose entire bit of humor centers around him playing out every Japanese stereotype imaginable.
- "A world without children. Future generations will thank us."
- Hayley herself is Not So Different from her dad in the early seasons. In one episode, she complains about how the mall is making people materialistic, greedy, and corporate as she complains it in her blackberry.
- In "Stannie Get Your Gun," Stan and his NRA buddies recite a pledge about how they will always be vigilant in protecting their neighbors, while Terry is outside pleading for help as someone makes away with his CD collection.
- I Call It "Vera": Stan's gun's name is Gun.
- I Banged Your Mom: Used as a Running Gag when Stan becomes Steve's bully to toughen him up. Done to the point that even the mother does it referring to herself.
- I Can Explain:Francine: "Oh, has my pie fairy godmother finally arrived? ...Hayley?"
Hayley: "Mom! It's not what it looks like.. Uhh, I was cooking meth!"
Francine: "Oh really? Then where's your muriatic acid?"
Stan: I get to strap him to the waterboard!
- In Phantom Of The Telethon, when Stan and co get excited about torturing a terrorist:
Dick: I get the car battery!
Saunders: I wanna slather him in oil and make love to him all night long! [he realizes people are looking] Oh, I'm on the phone.
- If I Wanted X, I Would Y
- I Have Boobs, You Must Obey!: Francine uses this trope several times in S5 Ep07, "My Morning Straitjacket" to get Stan backstage at a concert. A montage shows her flirting and flashing her way past several levels of security (including a lesbian security guard).
- I Have No Son: Stan disowns Steve upon realizing that he is a total Geek.
- Inverted when they think Roger died, Stan acts like a jerk about it, and Steve shouts "I have no father!"
- I Just Want My Beloved to Be Happy: While Stan doesn't exactly treat Francine brilliantly a lot of the time, whenever he believes she may be happier with someone else he is willing to let her go. Naturally it always works out however.
- "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight:
- Played with nicely in "Haylias", in which a brainwashed Hayley turns on Stan and chases him back to their house. Stan tries to reason with her as she hold him at gunpoint, making a last gambit with a heartfelt confession and apology on trying to control her happiness. It fails, she proceed to shoot him anyway mid-sentence. Luckily for Stan, he manages to survive with just a concussion, with the brush of death he had allowing the program in Hayley to be completed and bringing her back to normal with no memory of the true reason she was trying to kill him.
- Taken to literal lengths by Francine towards Stan, who has amnesia, in the episode "The Boring Identity". To help Stan remember that he works for the CIA, she attempts to trigger his self-defense instincts... by pummeling him with punches and kicks, hoping that he'll fight back on reflex alone.
- I Never Said It Was Poison: Spoofed in "Black Mystery Month." Steve goes to the museum, only to find that it's a crime scene and the detective gets incredibly suspicious when Steve mentions details that are clearly visible.Detective: I'm afraid the curator has been murdered.
Steve: Oh my God, someone killed him?!
Detective: Funny, I never said he was murdered.
Steve: Yes... yes, you did. God, he's wedged into the mouth of a giant bust of George Washington Carver!
Detective: That's classified, how do you know that?
Steve: Uh, I can see it from here.
(the detective takes half a minute confirming that the body is visible from where Steve is standing)
Detective: Okay, that checks out.
- Idiot Ball: In "Stannie Get Your Gun," Stan stages a robbery at the house to motivate Hayley into firing a gun. It all goes smoothly...until Stan and the "robber" celebrate their successful ploy right in front of the house. Where Hayley can clearly see and hear them.
- In "Stan of Arabia", Francine goes to jail for a variety of Muslim related charges (revealing too much skin, singing, dancing etc) ALL of which could have been easily avoided had Francine retained some of that common sense she usually has
- Ignore the Fanservice: In one episode, Francine tries to sweet talk some CIA scientists into giving her a top-secret formula. She tries brushing the straps of her dress off her shoulders, and shimmying off her panties and tossing them at the scientists, but they don't react at all. When she mentions she has brownies, however... BROWNIES!!
- Indecisive Parody: Several episodes don't seem to know whether to play the Aesop straight or mock it. Almost any episode involving Hayley and Roger heavily lampshade their hypocrisy and Jerkass tendencies for laughs for example, but Stan learning to respect them is still usually played straight.
- Injury Bookend: In "Stannie Get Your Gun," Stan is paralyzed from being shot. After some hijinks and character development, he gets shot again, which cures his paralysis.
- Imagine Spot: Director Bullock has one of these in the season five episode, G-String Circus:Bullock: [To Stan] The C in CIA doesn't stand for crestfallen. [To himself] But what if it stood for cat?
- Incest Subtext: Hoooo boy. Virtually every member of the Smith household has had at least one scene built on this trope, and more often than not it's a great deal more than subtext. Comes to a head in "Virtual In-Stan-ity" when Stan takes control of a (robot) girl's body and tries to sleep with Steve (!) to get closer to him.
- Incurable Cough of Death: Hayley coughs early in Tears of a Clooney; minutes later, she is suddenly stricken with cancer (though she ultimately beats it).
- Minutes from our perspective, months from theirs.
- Informed Ability: Roger has a Masters degree in City Planning. He can tell you where to build a convention center, but can't tell when he's being played for a fool by a fish.
- Ink-Suit Actor: Avery Bullock looks more than a little like Patrick Stewart. And you'd never guess who voices him.
- What makes it more conspicuous is that in Family Guy, Patrick Stewart has appeared as himself in Not All Dogs Go To Heaven, as Jean-Luc Picard in at least one Cutaway Gag, and as Avery Bullock in a dream sequence, and in all cases the character model was exactly the same: no changes at all apart from clothing, proving once and for all that Avery Bullock is Patrick Stewart in everything but name, parodying himself to great effect.
- There are also some cameos by some people that work on the show. Those scientists about five tropes up? The one in the mech is Mike Barker and the other is Matt Weitzman, the co-creators of the show.
- Principal Lewis is basically the animated version of Kevin Michael Richardson.
- And Snot's name and design are based on his voice actors most famous role, Booger in Revenge of the Nerds.
- Inner Monologue: Crops up more than average, especially in episodes centering on Stan.
- Innocent Innuendo: Or not so innocent. When Stan's teammate, Jim, uses his The Casanova skills to seduce his way out of the bad guys' hideout and to safety. When Stan gets home, he hugs his wife.Stan (still hugging): If I smell at all like sex, it's because of Jim.
(Francine opens her eyes and gets an odd look on her face)
Stan: His hips never stopped moving as we porked our way through 200 miles of jungle. It was magnificent.
Steve: I don't like the last half, it's not as effervescent. Nope, the bottom's not for me; I'm what they call a top.
- "This is the only photo from our honeymoon where you can't see Vag. [beat] Ah, Vag, the little island boy who served as our tour guide."
- In Stanny Tendergrass Steve throws out half of a can of soda and tries to justify it:
[Roger's eyes widen]
- Interspecies Romance: Hayley and Reginald The Koala. Roger and Kim Kardashian the alien.
- Also, Steve and Klaus, at times. One time Steve got the "ick" from "spending time" with Klaus.
- Intoxication Ensues: During a daring escape from a burning barn full of dope in Joint Custody this happens to Stan and Roger, who ride out the episode with some hilarious stoner behaviour, and manage to resolve the plot by accident.
- Invaded States of America: One episode has a Set Back What Once Went Wrong plot where it is shown that a Walter Mondale presidency would have resulted in the Soviets perpetrating a full-scale conquest of America. Stan has to help the president he idolizes, Ronald Reagan, prevent this turn of history, but the method of fixing history is not one that he will enjoy...
- In another episode, a cyborg Stan from the future mentions that Canada and Mexico will team-up to invade the US.
- Invoked Trope: When an awkward fight between Stan, Steve, and Stan's dad starts in the kitchen, Francine points out that this is when Klaus would usually come in and say something funny for comic relief, the joke being that he doesn't make it until the end of the scene, despite Francine's repeated invoking.
- And in Iced, Iced Babies, Roger wants to discuss an intellectual article, but Francine and Stan point out that Roger is only good for spitting out cutesy one-liners and that he's "the Adam Sandler of the house."
- I Owe You My Life: Stan owes Roger a life debt after he saves him at Area 51. It's finally repaid (twice) in the episode You Debt Your Life, however.
- I Should Write a Book About This: The final episode of the show's run on Fox note literally ended with Stan finish reading a book titled "American Dad! on Fox".
- Issue Drift: Inverted; the show has arguably become less political than originally intended, though it's still pretty heavy on it.
- I Told You So: The episode "Four Little Words" centers on Stan's increasingly over-the-top efforts to keep from having to hear this from Francine.
- It's a Wonderful Plot: The "Dreaming Of A White Porsche Christmas" episode is this doubly over. First, Stan wishes he could live Principal Lewis' life, only to find out he's no longer married to Francine and Steve and Hayley are no longer his kids. Stan figures he has to "learn a lesson" in order for the wish to be undone. True to plot, Stan ends up realizing how important his family is, and an angel shows up to restore things... only Stan is reunited with an entirely different family, Klaus is a normal fish, and Roger lives with them under the guise of a mall optometrist. It turns out this new family is Stan's actual family, while Francine, Hayley, Steve, and Klaus were part of a previous attempt at this trope and thus the "cautionary family." Turns out the original angel in charge of Stan's first lesson died before it could things were set straight and Stan forgot all about his original family. The problem is that Stan actually wants Francine and the others back.
- It's Popular, Now It Sucks: In-universe, Stan decides to get a head start by hating on a singer before he gets popular.
- Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: Stan even converts his backyard into a fully-fledged prison when he convinces himself the new neighbors are terrorists.
- And in the same episode he uses the technique on himself.
- Jerk Ass: Stan and Roger. And when they put aside their differences and get together...
- With Roger, the Jerk Ass trope actually has some justification. In "Frannie 911," it's revealed that for Roger's species, their "bitchiness" takes the physical form of a poisonous bile if they don't vent it out on others on a frequent basis. It would literally kill Roger to be nice. That said it's not as if he has a hard time doing it.
- Tank Bates, Terry's father. Tank understands completely that homosexuality is not a choice and he is still disgusted by it. Tank doesn't care how much stress it caused Terry to keep his homosexuality from him, wishes he never knew, and proceeds to act like Terry doesn't exist when he's finally been outted. Conversely, this episode plus later ones involving Stan's father have resulted in Stan and Terry being fairly amicable with each other.
- Jerkass Realization: A recurring plot point that makes Stan repetant of his callous ways. Roger has a few moments of this as well, even if he is just as likely to fake one to get his way.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Stan... most of the time.
- Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Roger plays this a lot, a few episodes hint to Hidden Depths that possibly explain his personality issues, only for them to turn out as Blatant Lies and for Roger to simply be an out and out Jerk Ass For the Lulz. Stan also has occasional shades of this (particularly in earlier episodes) though he does seem more capable of genuinely seeing the error of his ways.
- Jesus Was Way Cool: In a Christmas episode, the Rapture occurs and Stan and Francine were left behind. Jesus comes back to lead people against the Anti Christ. He doesn't have his superpowers (except for being able to withstand freezing temperatures and Walk on Water), but it's still a badass. He's hunky and charismatic and actually front flips onto the Anti Christ's shoulder and snaps his neck with his thighs. He's also allowed to date this time and Stan calls him the best guy Francine could ever end up with.
- Jump Scare: Twice in Best Little Horror House In Langley Falls involving Buckle's haunted house and its setup.Goblin: I'll fucking kill you!
Goblin: I'll skin you alive, you filthy whore!!
- Just Between You and Me: Lampshaded in For Black Eyes Only, the sequel episode to Tearjerker. Black Villain has Stan all tied up on a conveyor belt, and casually asks him if he wants to hear about his convoluted evil plan before he kills him. Stan eagerly says "Sure!", and Black Villain turns on a video at a conveniently placed TV next to him.
- Just Like Making Love:Jack: Now son, breaking in to a safe is like making love to a woman.
Stan: So, we should just pound on it for like two minutes?
Jack: No... you need to gently work the dials till she surrenders...

Disney World Teaches The World Tech Coolness
IF YOU WANT to imagine how the world will look in just a few years, once our cell phones become the keepers of both our money and identity, skip Silicon Valley and book a ticket to Orlando. Go to Disney World.
The folks at Disney spent two years figuring out how to remove all the transactional aspects of going to a theme park, and transferred them to a wearable device. According to the article, the "magic band" they created has a singular goal:
The goal was to create a system that would essentially replace the time spent fiddling with payments and tickets for moments of personal interactions with visitors. The MagicBands and MyMagicPlus allow employees to "move past transactions, into an interactive space, where they can personalize the experience," Crofton says. What started as a grand technology platform has inevitably changed the texture of the experience.
Did you catch the part about "tickets" and "moments of personal interaction"? This is pretty much why I've been evangelizing CRM as most important innovation of this generation for our industry, and it's only now getting started. And, amazingly, Disney is leading the way.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has approved a settlement between its Office of Enforcement and Deutsche Bank Energy Trading LLC to resolve an Order to Show Cause proceeding regarding manipulation of California power markets. Deutsche Bank stipulates to the facts and neither admits nor denies the violations. It agrees to pay a civil penalty of $1.5 million and disgorge unjust profits of $172,645, plus interest, resulting from its trading in California Independent System Operator markets at the Silver Peak intertie. In a September 2012 order, the Commission directed Deutsche Bank to show cause why its conduct did not merit a proposed $1.5M penalty. Based on its investigation, Enforcement staff determined that between January 29, 2010, and March 24, 2010, Deutsche Bank violated the Commission's anti-manipulation rule by engaging in a scheme in which Deutsche Bank entered into physical transactions to benefit its financial position, its Congestion Revenue Rights position at the Silver Peak intertie. Within 10 days, Deutsche Bank must pay the civil penalty to the U.S. Treasury and disgorge the unjust profits to California ISO for distribution to market participants harmed by the company's manipulation.

Nobody can predict whether or not one action in a fight could have changed the end results, but Chad Mendes believes Jose Aldo grabbing the face in their first fight definitely changed the course of the first round and heading into the second fight plans to address the issue with the referee prior to the bout:

That's a great idea. Maia would have loved that rule vs Silva
6/27/14 3:31 PM by ender852
the rule is kinda stupid in the first place, and is only around to protect the guy doing the grabbing from getting his fingers ripped off, not to protect the purity of a wrestling in mma.
6/27/14 3:28 PM by ender852
that's too harsh, the fight should be restarted with the offender on the ground if anything.
6/27/14 3:27 PM by ender852
cry me a river. every fighter has grabbed the cage at least once, many times it is instinctive. I am not saying it shouldn't be penalized but i don't think it's that big a deal.do it more than once, sure, take a point.
6/27/14 3:20 PM by Wasa-B
^ Exactly.Yes, Aldo should have at least been warned or penalized there, sure. But people acting like it "dramatically changed the course of the fight" are exaggerating. Again, Mendes got Aldo down right after that and Aldo got right back up. And lets be honest, fair is fair and Aldo should have been penalized but Mendes wasnt gonna do anything to Aldo on the ground or standing back then. Lets just focus on the coming fight and Mendes has every right to highlight the fence grabbing for this one. Im super stoked about this fight, its hard to call, just like Weidman/Machida.
6/27/14 3:05 PM by SykChyld
Intentional hand balls in soccer happen also. Fouling when it is your favor is part of almost every sport. World wide. Why do we expect MMA is going to be any different? The rules are set up to make it just flagrant.
6/27/14 1:09 PM by da Vinci 81
^ And I shouldn't say fighters purposely commit fouls because of they can get away with it once. But there's certainly not the punishment in place like there should be for guys to be consciously aware of not doing it.
6/27/14 1:06 PM by da Vinci 81
It's sad that this is actually what goes on. These guys all know the rules of the sport and are reminded in the back before every fight. Yet still when eye pokes, fence grabs, and other fouls occur everyone feels it necessary for a warning to be given before a point deduction. It's stupid. It's fair game right now to commit blatant fouls once because everyone knows you have to get a warning first before a point is taken off. There's no deterrent out there at all.
6/27/14 12:14 PM by eljamaiquino
They foul intentionally in basketball, football, baseball. All major sports occasionally intentionally commit a foul to wreck.the opponents game plan.
6/27/14 6:50 AM by SykChyld
Yep. And if we were to fight. I would kick you in the nuts once. Take my warning. Grab the fence a few times. Get my warning. Poke you in the eye a few time and get my warning... then win. Don't worry though I will pretend it is an accident.

With Matt Flynn replacing a largely ineffective Scott Tolzien, the Packers were able to turn around a 20-7 third-quarter deficit and force overtime. But both teams' offenses stalled in OT, and we saw a 26-26 tie — only the fourth NFL stalemate since 2000.
Perhaps Aaron Rodgers should win the MVP this season. Because the Packers look pretty horrible — on offense and defense — with him not on the field.
Tolzien made a fantastic spin move on a rushing touchdown but had serious problems sustaining drives in the rest of the half. So head coach Mike McCarthy called on Flynn, the once and current backup, from the bullpen to get bailed out.
Flynn, who returned to the club a few weeks ago after being cut by the Oakland Raiders and Buffalo Bills, completed a respectable 21 passes for 218 yards and a touchdown. He came up with some timely scrambles and a huge conversion on a sideline throw to Jarrett Boykin on a terrific catch that helped set up the field goal to start overtime.
But Flynn hit on only three short passes in the remainder of overtime after the Vikings tied it on their first possession, and the game ended all square.
How did Flynn fare? Considering the circumstances, pretty well. He rallied the Packers from two scores down, and though he didn't hit the big plays at the end of the game and seemed confused by the Vikings' pressure, the end result was pretty good all things considered.
Now the Packers have a decision to make. Do they start Flynn in the huge road game against the Detroit Lions next week?
That's one key decision McCarthy must make. But he also has to seriously worry whether his defense — something Rodgers routinely covered for with his greatness — can be at all competitive until Rodgers is back.
