Big Living, Tiny Homes
How much space do you need? Despite being low on the population density list, Americans tend to take up a lot of space. In fact, the Sierra Club reports that an American's average "ecological footprint"—the space it takes to produce the resources he or she uses—is four times the world's average. Some people are trying to combat this by living small. Really small.
For two weeks ending today, the Smart Home has had a new neighbor: the Tiny House. Created by students and recent alumni at Northwestern University's McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science, the house boasts a teeny-tiny living space (only 128 square feet!) that has all the needed amenities for a functional home. From two different sets of rooftop solar panels to a composting toilet, this thing has everything you might need... with the exception of breathing room!
This is just one of many in a "small-time living" movement that has been gaining momentum. Instead of making a large carbon footprint, houses in this genre, like Amsterdam's new steel shipping container apartments, use green materials, resources, and methods to make tiny living a good option for the environment.
So what do you think? Could you live in a house smaller than your current living room? Or do you prefer your wide-open spaces?

Seems like an economical way to live alone. I want to live in a tiny house like the one in the picture! Does it have a basement? It needs to have a place to take shelter in case of bad weather. Making it taller wouldn't add to the ground space used, so why not add another floor? Would a staircase take up too much floor space to be practical? I can picture a housing development filled with these little homes. I think that the yards would have to be smaller as well.

Walker Bay (Livingston Island)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Walker Bay, Livingston Island)
Walker Bay (62°38′S 60°42′W / 62.633°S 60.700°WCoordinates: 62°38′S 60°42′W / 62.633°S 60.700°W) is a bay lying between John Beach and Hannah Point along the south coast of Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1958 for John Walker, Master of the sealer John who visited the South Shetland Islands in 1820-21 and provided George Powell with descriptions and sketches of their southern coasts for incorporation in his 1822 chart.

When you look back at the 2012 London Olympic games and think of the French men's basketball team, you immediately might recall the ending scene with Nicolas Batum purposely hitting Juan Carlos Navarro in the lower region of the body.
The 2012 London games didn't end the way Batum and France wanted, but San Antonio Spurs' Tony Parker won't ever forget the experience of not just participating in the games, but cherishing the moments of being amongst the world's greatest athletes.
"It is unforgettable and unique to play in the games," Parker said.
"This is the biggest competition and I loved living these moments, like entering into the (Olympic) stadium and meeting other athletes."
Though Parker came out of the games without a medal, he continued to speak with FIBA.com of how special the games were to him.
"In the morning, you were talking with everyone," he said.
"It is a great experience, it creates links and friendships.
"This is what I loved during the Olympics ...
For Parker, he Boris Diaw and Nando De Colo will be putting on the silver and black colors in early October as they prepare for a full regular season of 82 games in the NBA. Parker made a great stride in last year's lockout season, as he was being called an MVP candidate throughout the year.
Diaw also revived his image when he signed with the Spurs and became the starting center in the playoffs. De Colo didn't have a spectacular Olympic showing, and with the Spurs so stacked the guard positions, he might be in for a season where he'll have to take advantage of the possible limited minutes he may receive.
Either way, Parker and members of Les Bleus weren't able to come up with the Gold in August, but they still have a new chance at capturing an NBA title this coming June.

Appeals Court Approves of Union Fining Member for Reporting Safety Violation
It should come as no shock that unions have rules. They are usually a codified set of rules and union members are expected to abide by those rules. Almost always, a union's rules are spelled out in the union's constitution. If a member violates a union rule, a union has the legal right to place that member on trial (a union trial).

Jul 1st, 2015 by filmdrunk
This week on the Frotcast, Ben and Burnsy join via Skype, with Vince, Bret, and Steve Post in the Frotquarters. We talk about the first episode of season two of True Detective, an HBO show about some police officers who drink a lot and are very sad about the absurdity of existence. Alt titles: "California Pout Force." "Grumbleteam Jelloshots." "The Misanthropolice." My hypothesis: Colin Farrell's character isn't a bad dad. His only crime is caring *too* much.
With Bret and Matt Lieb joining Vince in the Frotquarters, we open this week with a lengthy, or possibly girthy, discussion of Lebron James' penis. Laremy joins via Skype to discuss Pixar's latest, Inside Out, which we both saw. Since we've been off for two weeks, we discuss Jerry Seinfeld's now-infamous "Political Correctness is killing comedy" comment (words Jerry Seinfeld didn't actually say), and Matt's perspective as a fellow Jewish comedian (I'm required by law to mention that Matt is Jewish at least once in every post). After that we talk Rachel Dolezal (because who ISN'T talking Rachel Dolezal, am I right??), people whining about Game of Thrones, and Jurassic World.

Greg Sestero is perhaps best known for playing Mark in The Room ("Oh, hi, Mark."). He's also the co-author of The Disaster Artist: My Life Inside The Room, The Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made. Michael Rousselet is co-director of Dude Bro Party Massacre III, which also stars Greg Sestero. Rousselet also happens to be one of the first people to discover The Room, helping to make it a cult hit, who's credited for starting many of The Room's now familiar audience participation trends, like throwing spoons at the screen. I got them together 12 years almost to the day after the first The Room screening, to ask Greg what it was like being Tommy Wiseau's producing partner and roommate, his teenage modeling days in Europe, and what it's like having had his life inexorably tied to Tommy Wiseau's for close to 20 years now. And to ask Mike about the first time he saw The Room, and what possessed him to force everyone he knew to watch it. How old is Tommy Wiseau? Where is Tommy Wiseau actually from? How did Tommy Wiseau get so rich, and how could afford to blow $6 million on The Room? What does it all mean? We answer all or none of these questions on this week's BookDrunk Radio.

Vince is down in LA for a special edition Frotcast with Michael E. Peter, Michael Rousselet, and Alec Owen of 5-Second Films, whose crowd-funded magnum opus, Dude Bro Party Massacre III, for which they raised more than $200,000, plays the LA Film Festival this week. We talk about how you make a movie with 12-15 people involved in the creative process and how they scored all their magnificent cameos, from Larry King to Patton Oswalt to Andrew WK. We also discuss how much Larry King got paid ($8, seriously) and what Andrew WK calls his "character supplies" (mostly Doritos and Four Loko). Enjoy.

I know it's probably not why people listen to the Frotcast, but this week, we talk about movies! Lots of them. We open with Kung Fury, now free on YouTube, which we all watched, and mostly enjoyed. After that, I discuss my experience seeing the Entourage movie, which organically leads us into Chet Haze's spirited and similarly tone-deaf defense of using the N-word, aka "N-Star" (including a digression into Brent Weinbach's "Gangsta Party Line"). After that, we discuss the Rashida Jones-produced Netflix documentary about amateur teen porn, Hot Girls Wanted. Which felt very local news scare piece to me. ("It's CALLED amateur porn, and YOUR HOT TEEN could be doing it..."). From there, Matt and I discuss Love & Mercy, the Brian Wilson biopic starring Paul Dano and John Cusack, which Matt is well qualified to critique as a Brian Wilson freak and Beach Boys scholar. Should a biopic just be a dramatic retelling of what you already know or should it try to innovate? Finally, we finish up with your emails, including a bitter script reader's take on "the two wolves story," another reader's rank of the frot crew by f*ckability, and yet another question about the best way to wipe your ass. Frot on and enjoy.

This week on the Frotcast, aka Comedians With Microphones Talking Movies, I talk about San Andreas (my review), a film about a very muscular, chesty man's love for his chesty wife and their busty daughter in a time of earthquakes. Bret continues his journey to shilldom ("I get #horny for #brands!") and Matt Lieb tells us about his latest commercial, and why Alexandra Daddario is so attractive it makes him angry. About 30 minutes in, Kaseem Bentley, (SF Weekly Best of Award Winner for "Racial Humor You Don't Feel Guilty Laughing At" and one of the Bay Area's "Top 5 Comedians to Watch" according to the San Jose Mercury News) drops by. Kaseem spends the first 10 minutes or so making fun of me, my friends, and my past relationships, then dives down the rabbit hole of obscure San Francisco comedy references. At one point, he and Matt Lieb have a frank discussion about the existence of God. I dunno, man. Meanwhile, I try to ask him questions about his parents being in the Nation of Islam and the Black Panthers, what the deal is with bean pie, and how it was he came to be San Francisco's only insult comic/social worker. As always, Kaseem is really interesting in the brief moments you can get him to stop being hilarious.
May 21st, 2015 by filmdrunk
Welcome to another episode of what we like to call "Comedians with Microphones Talking Movies." This week on the Frotcast, our guest is Laremy Legel from Film.Com (and the upcoming movie 'Lightweight'), and the topics are rape scenes in Game of Thrones and feminism in Mad Max: Fury Road. But before we get to that, we've got an update on the "Startup Castle," which you may remember from last week as the folks behind the world's most pathos-drenched roommate ad. It turns out, the guy who "founded" (aka rented) the Startup Castle is a former Chippendales dancer and castmember on a pirate reality show. Neat! After that we get to Game of Thrones, and whether departing from the books has made it open season on criticisms of being gratuitous/rapey/predictable. We move onto Mad Max: Fury Road and the great (misguided) "Is It Feminist??" debate. Also, we discuss Armond White's review. Finally, we finish things off with your emails, including a question about honk shaming and a Smash Mouth story. Enjoy, and please continue Frotting.
This week on the Frotcast, Incompatent Thieves director Tom Dean joins Matt Lieb and myself (Vince Mancini) in the Frotquarters. We begin discussing the epic beef between Third Eye Blind's Stephan Jenkins and Smash Mouth's Steve Harwell, the most 90s beef since the Arch Deluxe. After that we discuss 80s sitcom theme songs and how bizarrely similar they all were. They were all somehow about a perfect family, that was an antidote to depression, bad news on the TV, and a general apocalyptic hellscape they implied existing outside the set. Then we get into the Kurt Cobain documentary, Montage of Heck, heroin addicts in general (a subject with which Matt is somewhat familiar), and why Courtney Love is so perfectly hatable. Is Courtney Love everything we accused Yoko of being? Finally, we finish off talking about "The Startup Castle," and their ad for a roommate who doesn't wear too much makeup, watch too much TV, drink, smoke, have too many tattoos, listen to songs with explicit lyrics, or drive too much - another perfectly insufferable illustration of everything despicable about the tech industry in Silicon Valley. Fun! Fun! Fun!
May 6th, 2015 by filmdrunk
This week, OJ Patterson of Courting Comedy/Super Trashed Bros is in the Frotquarters to discuss the #CONTROVERSY surrounding Jeremy Renner's alleged slut-shaming of Black Widow. Is it okay to call a fictional character a slut? Did he ruin his original non-apology by trying to explain it? Also, why did Joss Whedon quit Twitter, or rather, where did Patton Oswalt & Co come up with their explanations for Joss Whedon quitting Twitter? After that, we talk about A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night. Underrated? Overrated? Accurately rated? X-Rated? Is the setting supposed to be Iran? Also, BRET FINALLY SELLS OUT! "I want a slice of that idiot pie," Bret says. "In a world of monsters and shills, I want to be a shill." "I want you to be a shill with me," Matt Lieb says. "People always try to make it about Batman and the Joker, but it's not about Batman and the Joker. It's about the Joker and Ronald McDonald, and I want to be Ronald McDonald. I want to feed you, but in a clownish sort of way."

After losing a week to technical difficulties, we're back! This week, we're discussing the release of the Star Wars trailer and the people competing to see who can be the most nostalgic for Star Wars. The big question is, what's the line between acceptable, earnest fandom for something that meant a lot to you, and cheering while a corporation sells you your childhood? We try to answer that, talk about "thug" as we solve race relations in Baltimore, listen to some of Joe Sinclitico's stand-up comedy about koala hunting, and try to figure out if Matt Lieb actually likes us. As for the listener who asked if the Frotcast was dying, no, it is not, we just had some troubles upgrading our recording set up. We've come a long way, from shouting into a single mic to multi-track recording. Not successfully, mind you, but it's been a journey.

I was in SoCal this week for the MTV Movie Awards and Alison Rosen's podcast, so the regular Frotcrew is gone this week (though Bret did still show up to the Frotquarters, poor Bret). Not to fear, though, because I was able to get a couple fan-favorite guests to record the make-up 'cast, comedians Joe Sinclitico and Matt Louv (the museum of comedy). We talked about Joe's righteous mustache and it smelling like a condom, the MTV Movie Awards, Furious 7, and discussed whether Vin Diesel is trying to bring up Paul Walker as much as Rudy Giuliani brings up 9/11. Enjoy.

There's a new bus service in San Francisco that basically helps rich tech nerds pay a few more dollars not to see poor people. Is this a sign of the apocalypse or is it basically all capitalism in a nutshell? Either way, it seems like we the San Francisco residents are guinea pigs in an experiment to see what it'd be like if tech companies ruled the world. WE HAVE SEEN YOUR FUTURE, AND IT SUCKS. We discuss the infantilizing effect of tech before moving onto 'Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief,' with Ben back on the pod after two months in Central America. He talks where to go and what to spend and all that good stuff. We finish up with your emails and voicemails about your personal encounters with Name Of The Year contestants like Dr. Loki Skylizard, and Tokyo Sexwale.

We couldn't get the Frotcast crew together for a proper Frotcast this past week, but I did interview Paul Fischer 'A Kim Jong-Il Production: The Extraordinary True Story of a Kidnapped Filmmaker, His Star Actress, and a Young Dictator's Rise to Power.' While it's not the same thing as a normal Frotcast, I did go all Teri Gross for a Fresh Air-style, hour-long interview. The book tells the story of Choi Eun-Hee and Shin Sang-Ok, who at one point were the most popular actress and director in South Korea. They were kidnapped by Kim Jong-Il in 1978, and after Shin tried to escape twice and spent five years in North Korean gulags, he eventually got out, was reunited with Choi (his ex-wife at that point) and they made seven movies for Kim Jong-Il, including the so-bad-it's-good cult classic, Pulgasari. They tried to make movies good enough that they'd be in Jong-Il's good graces, so that he eventually gave them just enough freedom that they were able to escape back to the west. Shin eventually went to Hollywood and made a few movies, including '3 Ninjas Knuckle Up.' I talk to Fischer about North Korea, parallels betwen North Korea and Scientology, The Interview, his personal experience in North Korea, and all about himself, writing the book, Kim Jong-Il, and everything else. Enjoy.

Twollie Vanderworf! Tokyo Sexwale! Taco BM Monster! Dr. Loki Skylizard! These are all people's real names, uncovered every year by the folks at NameOfTheYear.com. Using their 2015 Name Of the Year bracket, we all chose our Name Of The Year fantasy teams, with guest and fantasy sports expert Matt Ufford of The Inactives podcast. After that, we discuss competitive Paul Walker grieving among the Furious 7 cast, and go down the rabbit hole of conspiracy theory websites. Enjoy, and go to AudibleTrial.com/Frotcast for your free Audiobook download.

This week on the Frotcast, we talk The Jinx and Robert Durst. The appeal of the show, is it closure or characters? Or is it just that Robert Durst is nuts in so many different ways that it seems like there's a new one every week? And why would people feel closure at the end of the show, because the weird guy was talking to himself? Wouldn't any rational human being know how did it from the very beginning? Did you hear the story about his rubber mask? About him killing his dogs? So we talk about that for a while, and compare it to Serial. Then we bring on Laremy Legel to talk about 30 for 30's I Hate Christian Laettner and tell us about The Divergent Series: Insurgent. As Bret says, "This is the dumbest book I've ever had told to me."
Matt also tells the story about a listener trying to make Matt look bad so he could have sex with his girlfriend. No snitching!

The usual crew couldn't get together in the Frotquarters this week, so in lieu of a regular frotcast, I'm posting audio of FilmDrunk interviews with Homegrown Video's Farrell Timlake, Mastering the Art of Soviet Cooking author Anya Von Bremzen, and a couple quickies from the AVN Awards. Sorry, and I hope you enjoy these! As always, email us at firstname.lastname@example.com, leave us a voice mail at 415 275 0030

This week, we welcome Somerville, Mass's finest (don't say Boston...), comedian Steve Post to talk about the Edward Snowden documentary CitizenFour (as well as the upcoming Oliver Stone biopic and Oliver Stone movies in general). We also Skype in Ben from Costa Rica to talk about his Kickstarter project, his post-testicular cancer vision quest and current swing through Central America. He updates us on staying fit and the backpacking ladies, we get in deep to talk about the Oxy epidemic that drove Steve Post to leave Somerville, talk about Matt Lieb's latest Xfinity commercial and getting "shrunk" in a Nature Valley commercial. Then Steve one-ups him with his story about playing a bartender in a Silicon Valley episode, thanks to his nine years of actual bartending experience.
Enjoy, and check out audibletrial.com/Frotcast to sign up for a free trial and get your free audiobook.

This week on the Frotcast, comedian Jane Harrison joins Matt Lieb, Vince, and Bret in the Frotquarters. We open talking about Mystique from X-Men being the perfect woman, which leads us to the appeal of 'Fifty Shades Of Grey' and pretty much all things porn - watching it, guilt surrounding it, evolution of desires, the search for novelty, whether the younger generation's ideas about sex have been skewed by, whether it changes intimacy in a relationship, etc. etc. It just sort of happened. We also talk about the Oscars and pitch a TV show about Matt Lieb and his silicone sex butt, which he kept in his closet when he lived with his mom. Matt Lieb is a sick, sick, man.
ALSO. Check out http://www.audibletrial.com/Frotcast and get your free Audiobook. All you have to do is sign up. For one thing, it's a great way to support the Frotcast, and for another, Audible is actually a great company. I go through three audiobooks a month myself, so it's not like I'm recommending something I don't use myself - I use the sh*t out of it.

Comedians Matt Lieb and Torio Van Grol are in the Frotquarters this week, with Film.com's Laremy Legel joining via Skype. We open discussing Matt Lieb's recent audition for Adam Devine's House Party, and lead into arguments about Kurt Cobain and our pitches for Spider-Man now that Marvel is rebooting the franchise. We get into that crazy NY Times article about the internet shame machine and the girl who lost her job and had to move to Africa over a bad AIDS joke. Laremy comes on to talk about his viewings of Kingsman: The Secret Service, and of course, Fifty Shades of Grey, leading to Matt Lieb's truly priceless Christian Grey impression. Enjoy.
Feb 4th, 2015 by filmdrunk
Back from hiatus, we've got Matt Lieb and Brendan in the Frotquarters with Ben joining via Skype. We talk about Matt Lieb's newly-acquired quicksand porn (thanks, listeners!), read an alleged treatment for Kevin Spacey's body-swap-with-a-cat comedy sent in by a listener, and talk about my trips to the AVN Awards and to Sundance. Then we bloop in Gavin Booth, director of Scarehouse, to talk about the challenges of shooting a horror movie and being Canadian, and also the dumb things people ask at Q & As. Also, I convince everyone to see Jupiter Ascending because it's one of the most ridiculous movies ever. Enjoy!

American Sniper was the big topic this week, so we all saw it, and invited on my former co-worker and roommate, SB Nation's Matt Ufford, Marine veteran, and host of the new podcast The Inactives. Is the movie any good? Is Chris Kyle a hero? A murderer? Does the film paint fake babies in a false light? Is it a proper representation of military tactics? We answer all these and more, probably the longest we've ever talked about a single movie. Besides that, Bret talks about celebrating his birthday in a sensory deprivation tank, Matt Lieb eats the supermarket sushi he bought with food stamps, and we read your emails about a guy with two buttholes. Enjoy, and for the love of God, tell a friend. Download it multiple times yourself, spread the word. Frot-nation is sweeping the nation, and you can get in early.
Jan 15th, 2015 by filmdrunk
We open this week discussing Matt Lieb's new haircut, which makes him a dead ringer for Lena Dunham's boyfriend, Fun guitarist Jack Antonoff. This naturally leads to 'Girls' infamous butt-eating (analingus) scene, which seems to have been written just for Matt. Who famously eats so much butt he has a bib with a picture of a butt on it. Just keeping things high brow like always.
After that, the Space Dockett includes: the politicization of Facebook, 'Frank,' and Film.com's Laremy Legel joins us to talk about Michael Mann's 'Blackhat,' aka Thordfish (thanks to commenter Erswi for that one). And did I mention Ben is back in the studio??? Enjoy, and Frot on.
We've got three comedians in the Frotquarters this week to discuss a movie about a comedian, Obvious Child, along with Bret, who hates comedy, story, humans, and existence itself. Asked by his wife what he wants for Christmas, Bret answers "I don't want to be," and so she bought him a gift certificate to a sensory deprivation tank. Other topics include Collective Soul Bird, 'Girls' Vs. 'Entourage,' the Josh Gad Gad Movie Game, Kid Rock saying rap rock is gay, and lots of weird sex stuff. Guests: Matt Lieb, Vince Mancini, Jane Harrison, and Bret. We ate pizza. Won't you be our friend?

Every night at Club Space (34 NE 11th Street, Miami) will satisfy your craving for cutting-edge house, techno and trance music. But Saturday night, Feb. 5, 2011 will be truly special, as underground German DJ Nick Curly, who blew up dance floors all summer in Ibiza and who was chosen by electronic-music godfather Pete Tong to take over the BBC Radio Essential Mix show, steps behind the decks at the Techno Loft. Curly talked to Miami.com about the show.
How was your summer residency in Ibiza?
Last summer was great. I stayed four months on the island and played amazing gigs for Space and Amnesia.
What does it mean to you to take over the BBC Essential Mix?
Oh, it was great. Essential Mix is still the biggest radio show for electronic dance music, so I was really proud to get a slot from Pete.
How would you describe your sound?
I would, but my sound is a special genre. For sure, it is house/techno music, but the main thing for me is that the beat grooves.
What's the musical mission of your Cecille label?
We are always looking for a new sound. For example, we try not to release the same kind of music that we had in 2010. That's boring, even when it worked last year.
Is the German electronic scene dominated by trance, and if so, what inspired you to break away from that?
No, the German scene is definitely not dominated by trance. We have big names like Paul van Dyk, but to tell you the truth, in Germany they are not really big. Trance is maybe the smallest scene in Germany.
What can we expect from your set at Space Miami?
I always try to play as groovy as I can. My last gig at Space was great, so I'm really looking forward to this one, also because it is the last gig on my tour.
Have you performed in Miami before? If so, what do you think of the city?
I really like to play in Miami. The city has a special vibe, and the weather is always good.
Do you have plans for Winter Music Conference?
Oh, I'm not going to the WMC in 2011. It was a bit confusing with the dates, when the official conference is now, so I decided to stay in Europe.

It almost seems like atheists don't want to believe in God. Do you just simply not want to believe in God because you don't want to give up your own free will?
ADMIN EDIT: Mercedes has left ThinkAtheist.com on her own accord. This discussion will remain, however do not expect a response from the author.
Views: 11721
It is, indeed, a very leading question. But look what wonderful debate it's sparked! More fun for us than for Mercedes, I'm sure.
Personally, I think Mercedes is quite likely a sweet kid, she can't help the way she was raised, any more than she can help trusting the beliefs of those who raised her - weren't most of us there once?
We were much kinder and more tolerant toward Belle Rose/Sarah/Jessica, when she first came here, and I'm sure she will agree with that. Let's give Mercedes a chance to learn from us, rather than turn her off with our criticism.
Well said. If she was indoctrinated as a child then she is a victim of child abuse and needs help not criticism.
im not the victim of abuse.
"...she is a victim of child abuse and needs help not criticism."
A truism to be sure. But can you or I actually repair a damaged mind by with just words.............maybe. But then 'criticism' may be a part of the procedure to repair that mind.
Once someone figures it out the word 'Atheist' will no longer be in our lexicon. Looking forward to that day.
I recall a number of us who used kid gloves with you, because of your sincerity, knowing you were not to blame for your own indoctrination. Maybe you haven't been here long enough to see us go all school of piranha on a theist troll - it's not a pretty sight --
Belle! Scratch the "BS!" remark, something unprecedented has happened! I KNOW you're never going to believe this, but I MADE A MISTAKE! Yeah, I know, what are the odds?
I wasn't thinking of you - sorry - when I said what I did about the kid gloves - but the reason you sprang to mind, was because I was thinking of the little girl you took under your wing, because others were picking on her, but I can't recall her name.
Then a bunch of stuff happened, most of which no one knows about, because evidently, without knowing it was a no-no, you posted the state she lived in or something, then a lot of comments were deleted by the Almighty Powers That Be, and she left and never came back.
Remember? What was her name?
We treated her with kid gloves. You, yeah, we probably kicked to the curb --
BTW - we seem to have another Sarah - http://www.thinkatheist.com/forum/topic/listForContributor?user=2t7... - is that you, or a new one? I'm SO confused!
RE: "are you just bringing up bad memories on purpose?" - no, but now that you mention it, it sounds like fun.
RE: "You don't remember? It wasn't that long ago Arch.." - true, but there are so many of you sweet, innocent little Christian girls who drop by to convert us with such inarguable logic as, "The Bible's true because it says it is!" that without a scorecard, I lose track, but it's slowly coming back to me, like much of the Seventies and select parts of the Eighties --
Its not about what I want, its about what is. What I want holds little relevance to truth and I do actually care about truth.
I am pretty sure she is a POE
Oh my!

TravelPod Member ReviewsEmbassy Suites San Francisco Airport South San Francisco
The hotel is very nice and, like all Embassy Suites, provides free breakfast and cocktails for two hours each day. The issue with this hotel is that they promote a shuttle on Friday and Saturday to take you to North San Francisco but they do not tell you that the shuttle is shared with three other hotels. The week we went, the Embassy was the last hotel to pickup and the shuttle is first come first serve 6 times a day. So we never made a shuttle.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
I stayed in a single suit on the second floor. It was a really nice room with a wide bed, bathroom with bath tub, a living room in the entry with a plasma screen, sink, fridge and another tv in the room. The room was very clean, very big and very comfortable. They had all the amenities necessary and the staff at the front desk was very welcoming.
The internet service is expensive at $14 a day. The restaurant food was good but not wonderful. I had a french onion soup for $8 that was small and a little salty. However I do recommend this hotel if you plan to stay there before boarding your plane. It is a little bit far from the city.

Historical Traveler Reviews Embassy Suites San Francisco Airport South San Francisco
We loved it!
I read all the reviews before we booked wiht the Embassy Suites. I was a bit apprehensive, but it was the only property that had all of the "extras" that we required. My main concern was getting breakfast! We had ten in our group, six of them being children! We had NO problem getting plenty of food every morning. (We stayed a week) The food was cooked to order or you could get the special of the day. They also had a wide variety of pastries, bagles, and juices. Also offered was coffee, milk, juice, hot chocolate and teas. We ate a full breakfast every morning and none of us really ate again until dinner! The property is older, but the spacious two room suites, (two sinks, fridge, microwave, plenty of storage for all our things, dining table, couch that makes into a queen bed) free breakfast, and open air enviroment made a trip superb! My kids don't want to stay anywhere else! We travel frequently and was suprised we hadn't stayed with them before. The prices are reasonable, and well worth every penny! Figure in the saving of breakfast and lunch ( if ya skip it) in calculating the cost of staying here.
The worst hotel ever
my girlfriend and i wanted to have a short shopping stay in sfo by mistake i booked this hotel instead of anza road embassy suites. same info as another guest mentioned-could not turn off air conditioner they kept saying after 9p the heat would kick in and we switched roomes twice no such thing as heat. came home with a terrible cold.--also one of the rooms we switched to smelled like olives..we switched rooms a few times and all were freezing cold. on the other hand anza road i stayed with my boyfriend in late october was wonderful.--could not have been a better staff and clean as can be--this hotel was the same as the other party mentioned before,mold and smelly. -- im going back in may with my boyfriend and its going to be anza road again--cant wait..
Fantastic value
I just thought I had to write a positove review of this hotel even though I stayed there last Spring. We arrived quite late but they made sure that we joined into the Manager's reception and in just over 20 minutes we manged 3 full drinks.
The room was clean, big and comfortable - just what we needed after our drive.
We enjoyed the full brakfast before our flight nad as we left I thought what wonderful value we had from our stay when compared to the prices we would have paid back in the UK.
My experience of the staff was that they were helpful, kind and did their jobs with humour.
I would definitely recommend this as a stopping point at the start of your holiday or before your flight onwards.
I booked the room through Total stay and that was cheaper than the Hilton web site.
Only SF airport hotel we stay at
This place is great. My husband and I are pretty local but stay in San Fran by the airport whenever we're up for Giant's or 49ers games. We used to stay at some of the other hotels (Westin, Sheraton) but they all charge you $16-$20 for parking your car. That's crazy! Plus, the Embassy gives you a great custom breakfast, the interior is beautiful and the have free happy hour drinks! I'll admit the rooms are not as nice as the Westin or Sheraton but you get a lot more for your money. It also has a great walking path along the water for you to watch the planes (my husband LOVES planes). We booked a standard room and when we got there asked them if they had any bay view rooms and they upgraded us for free. When ever I've asked that of some of the other hotels (Westin/ Sheraton) they ususally say no. Overall, I'd say the friendly staff, the breakfast, the drinks and the atrium make this stay the best.
Great location
We chose to stay at the Embassey Suites - SFAirport over Labor Weekend '04. We were traveling with another couple and wanted to visit the city, Napa Valley and then drive down to Carmel. This location was perfect and was very nice. The hotel setting was lovely and had a walking trail by the bay....you would have never known you were at an "airport hotel" We were able to get on the highway easily to get to our destinations. The rates were good and they included breakfast and a happy hour. There were a large number of guest there over a busy holiday weekend and the facility was able to accommodate everyone during the breakfast buffet. The rooms were the basic Embassey Suite rooms and the hotel decor was lovely. For the price and location it was a pleasant experience plus the parking was free!! If you don't want to stay in downtown SF, this is a nice change.
Highly recommended
Excellent value for the money. Stayed here the weekend of 11/20 with my family of five. We had a great time, the place was immaculate, the inside atrium incredibly picturesque - and the complimentary breakfast delicious. I will definitely stay here again.
Good stay but some problems
Stayed there on 11/11. Hotel was nice and staff was friendly. Good value overall However, there were some problems: 1). No hot water in the bathroom sink. The hot water valve was shut off by the maintenance people because of the leak. I opened it and hot water started leaking. I called the front desk and the problem got fixed when we got back to the room that night. 2). The sofa bed was broken. Half of the bed springs fell off when we pulled the bed out. It was midnight so I didn't bother calling the front desk. Anyway, they should have checked all these before giving the room out. 3). There were 17 kids from the same group in the pool that night, and half of them were teenagers. The younger ones there had no adult supervision. Where were the parents? These kids were totally out of control and no hotel staff there to intervene. My kids were bumped out because I had to pull them out of the pool after five minutes as they almost got hurt by some of these teenagers jumping into the pool ignoring rules posted in the pool area. We ran into the same problem when we went back to the pool the next morning. Pretty sad!
Great value for the money
We recently stayed at this hotel and thought that the service, amenities and location great for our family of four. Central Reservations had promised us a rollaway bed, but this hotel does not have them! The manager was great and helped work out the situation quickly. Maintenance came and fixed a problem in our room quickly--food at the restaurant was good, breakfast a little too crowded some mornings with a very long line for made to order items and low stock on most other things. Staff was generally very nice and answered all our questions pleasantly. It is an easy drive into San Francisco as long as you don't go in rush hour and the train is walking distance from the hotel. All in all, we thought it a great place to stay for a family!
Dirtiest hotel i have ever stayed at
The first room we were in smelled really bad. On the box spring had stains all over it. The bathroom looked like it had never been cleaned.
There was mold everywhere. We asked for a different room and the staff was extremely rude. The second room wasnt much better and we couldnt turn the air conditioner off. We ended up just leaving and going to the Hilton down the street. It was a lot more money but after the trauma we went through at the embassy suites we didnt care.
Good location reasonable price
Hotels in SFO are expensive , and most charge for car parking. The solution - stay at the airport. Ten mins from clearing the airport you are in your room relaxing. Not much to see or do about here, not even much in the way of eateries but the cost savings more than make up for this. Hotel a bit bland but has some very nice features- complementary breakfast, complementary evening drinks and popcorn. A bit of a wait for the above when the hotel is busy but overall a good value for money package.

With no GPS navigation and only Google Maps to rely on we made a wrong turn which resulted us in driving through the entire Vegas strip which we hadn't planned on doing to save time ...
San Francisco - part two

Coach Klinsmann, Salute to a Free Spirit!!
Juergen Klinsmann is a great German footballer, nothing will ever change that but he's always reflected being a free spirited kind of player and gosh, I guess a diver as well, which he kidded about. Still, Klinsy has been involved with charity, went to Israel on some sort of "goodwill mission", married a Chinese American, moved to America, moved to California and even in his playing days at least at the 1994 World Cup USA came off not totally unlike a rock star, I still have the video of Germany being eliminated in that tournament by Hristo Stoichkov and Bulgaria.
That's our Manager there: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KEBtPmz0D
-Bayern-Munich-001.jpg Must have been a cold day playing for Samdoria there, I doubt if he's wearing goalkeeper's gloves, I wanted to say Samdoria but that is a Bayern Munchen jersey isn't it, one of a number of clubs he played for which of course, included a stint, perhaps 2 stints actually with the Spurs. It rarely surprises me that though he must love Germany, the Deutscheland, he sortof wanted to get out of there. I'm sure in the long run, things will work out for the USA under his reins and tutelage.
A free spirit and a free thinker, one time I ran into some German tourists here, we went to the Edelweiss German restuarant but they were a ball. One time, I bought something on German Ebay, I could not get the bank to wire the money over there for at least a low cost and the guy sent me the stuff from Germany still, an Addidas t-shirt, Beckenbauer, before the next day was over, I sent the $$ discreetly hidden in an envelope.
But that old German team from '86-+'94, an interesting team, maybe too much emphasis on winning and winning at all costs. Competitive nonetheless. How things have changed, prior to the 2006 World Cup, t-shirts were sold reading "Make way for the bad guys" in regards to the German team but that was a thing from the past, from the spitting incident between Riijkgaard and Voeller in 1990 to all of the many incidences the German team or more properly, the West German team had been involved in since becoming competitive but whose to judge it?? That Germany is certainly gone in the past. What did we see France do to make the World Cup in South Africa? Thierry Henry's handball against Ireland and then France went and were one of the worst teams there? The pressure is on the players. Though we aren't perfect in US Soccer, in no time soon are we going to see flying elbows that have got to be intentional or dives, at least on a grand scale, to advance or other like acts.

Brum defeats Belgium's Best!?
With USA International Player at times and previously at West Ham, Johnathan Spector, PL relegated and Championship club Birmingham defeated Club Brugge Belgium in the 90th + 10 minutes of Extratime, there must have been some hold up in the game with 10 minutes of additional time. This result really goes to show how strong the English pro leagues must be.
So there was indeed something more to this game, the Blues may have risen more to the occasion.
Let's hope Pablo Ibanez, the Spaniard is alright, not to be confused with a Raul Ibanez, apparently playing in the MLB World Series.
With Stoke City quashing Maccabi Tel Aviv 3-0 it is given to reflection the performances of these teams along with Tottenham's win and Fulham's close loss.
The BBC stats are telling here.
Club Brugge defeated every English team previously in Belgium, West Brom, Chelsea twice, Ipswich, Nottingham and Tottenham except for one draw with Liverpool in 1976, 7 games altogether. So they were undefeated before yesterday's match. I wonder if one may read into this any kind of decline in Belgium as a footballing power? I'd think the National Team will return to it's former glory, lots of Belgian players on teams in England let alone Germany and France, Fellaini of Everton of course, is probably one of the most famous..
Update: After Sidney Crosby can we ever think a concussion is not that bad?? Well, it does seem Ibanez did not suffer a serious injury thank goodness and get well soon Pablo!

Iranian Players caught with cocaine.
Of all the countries that have tried to hire Diego Maradona as their coach? I wonder if Iran ever has??
From soccerway this morning:
Iran international Amou Lashgarian Hassan has been arrested on suspicion of trying to smuggle 690 grams of cocaine into Italy.But imagine that! Not before it went through the UK and Netherlands and then to Italy.
Sad, sad, some of the things from that part of the world as this blog takes a bit of a look into more worldly affairs. I think some countries like Egypt and their former ruler Mubarak were not that bad, in fact, I have a good Egyptian Moslem friend, he has no problems with Israelis or Christians. God protect us from the scourge of Extremists. This International player may well be hung if he ever returns to Iran from what I know. And if this Hassan is a talent, he certainly has hurt himself in that area as well. I'm sure smuggling cocaine is going to carry a prison sentence.

Beckham in Honduras
1st off: Please David, please do not pull this "we don't shave as long as we win" trick that the Gals, that is the LA Galaxy did last year. I know you did it with Landon Donovan but in the end, the Galaxy did not win it. This businesslike attitude is great. Also, in not being too much of a publicity seeker in this possible deal with Paris St. Germaine.
Down to business, the CONCACAF Champions League game was rather intriguing last night broadcast from Tegucigalpa, those poor parts of Latin America now that currently suffer but when you got the pelota, the ball, the women went wild. I'm even reading Beck's is going to Indonesia with one Dennis Rodham sometime in the future.
Congrats to the Galaxy. I kindof hope they can win it this year in that they deserve it. Read about it here: http://www.mlssoccer.com/ccl/news/a

Championship League Rundown, 22 Oct.
Quick rundown, man, how this week has flown by, we were just talking about Tuesday's games and I don't know yet, if Birmingham City won in Europa.... but they must have played, they are the Sunday game.
How tight are things in the C-ship? The Coca Cola Fizzy Pop League? You see with the opener
Peterborough Leeds 7th vs. 11th and Leeds got a draw and still dropped places during the week. I have no idea who might win here, I assume Leeds can win it.
Cardiff City Barnsley
'Boro Derby
Ipswich Palace
Leicester Millwall, Millwall really needs a win, Beckford scored for Leicester CIty Wednesday, his first goal for the team as Sven's team makes a try for the playoff spots.
Hull City Watford
Blackpool Forest Doing this shorthand, I'm tired but it's more of a note to myself.
Pompey Doncaster
Conventry Burnley
Reading Saints, this looks like a good game, someone will surprise Southampton 'maybe', a ton of teams are playing very well but they are still 5 points clear with about 12 games played, pretty good.
Birmingham Bristol
Brighton, Hove and Albion West Ham , Man, Brighton, Hove and Albion started this season at the top and though they aren't dropping like a rock, they certainly do not have the same form. This would be a game that could get them back in the hunt, if they drop?? Maybe they'd end up in 13th place when all is done, surely they will know going into Monday's game.

"Bloody Confused" by Chuck Culpepper
Our library had this book, "Bloody Confused", it looked like it was going to be a great book, the amazon reviews show many think it is a great soccer/football book. For a book from the library or at a good used price, it's not too bad but I think it's far from great. The American, Culpepper follows Portsmouth soon after their promotion to the PL and in one of those years they were new to the top flight, they won, of course the FA Cup, quite a feat really. Maybe Redknapp was coaching them. Anyway, it's a popular book, it's not too bad, it's fun reading, nothing to really weigh you down, it's not a hooligan book Maybe good but not great .
This came to mind about the book because the Big rivals of Portsmouth are??? Everyone??? Everyone knows this?? Of course, Southampton who are off to a very good start in the Championship league and while in the book, the Portsmouth fans would look down their noses at Southampton, the Saints, now it is Portsmouth who are on the skids and the way they dropped down, administration and all about 2 seasons ago but at least they did not go totally out of business. I always wondered what the author thought of his beloved Pompey with the subsequent events, something to research I suppose.
I look to see Southampton in the Premier League next year though it is a bit premature to assume they will be there.
I'd say the book "Bloody Confused" is more for those who are not real familiar with the Premier League, English football or in fact, European Soccer. "A season in Verona" is probably a similar type book about Italian football and in my opinion, in my opinion it was probably first. But all of these seem to be somewhat modelled on 'Fever Pitch' and then again, 'Fever Pitch' is modelled they say on "All played out".
But in the end, if you want a good soccer read, explore the library, they may have some. What one likes is really subjective and often depends on your preferences, your favorite teams, etc. and used, one can often find some good deals, especially when it seems a dozen books come out every month in the UK about football/soccer.
A bit off the topic but "Gas masks for Goal posts" is about British soccer/football during World War II, I've read bits of it and have had the book for a few years but I really need to buckle down and read the whole thing through. When World War II first started, I believe most football was cancelled and then, slowly came back. I've also gone through games for the English football team, the 3 Lions biggest rivals use to always be just in the UK, Scotland, Ireland, Wales. England and Wales played a match at the Molineux during World War II, I need to refresh myself as to that story.

Last Round of Fixtures for the MLS
There are some nuances about this last round of fixtures in the MLS and that is how it will influence post season play.
What I see mainly is that the Chicago Fire have a shot at the MLS playoffs, the Fire need to defeat Columbus Crew on Saturday and the game with the NY Red Bulls hosting Philadelphia Union would need to see NY lose for Chicago to have a shot at post season play. Well, the Red Bull Uion game is on Thursday night so at least, Chicago will know going into their game Saturday if they need to win but the Union do not have a whole lot to gain by winning except the chance to help see New York eliminated. I'm sure there are other factors as well, if Philadelphia were to win and Chicago were to win, it would go to some sort of tie breaker as the two would have 43 points. I would think head to head would be the next tie breaker and then Goal Differential. Who knows if we will even see this scenario play out.
MLS quality of play seems to be vastly improving every year.
The Portland Timbers may have a shot as well with remaining games at DC United and at Real Salt Lake, 2 wins could help them catch the Colorado Rapids if the Rapids drop their last game vs. Vancouver. Looks like Portland loses head to head, perhaps this race is already over and it might explain why Colorado, Dallas and Real Salt Lake have been poor over the last month, they really have not had to win to make the playoffs but you'd think they'd want to avoid the wild card playoffs.

Out-with-the-Cream Puffs
Traditional cream puff recipes use 1/2 cup butter and 4 to 5 whole eggs. We've reduced the fat to 2 tablespoons and cut out 3 egg yolks. Filled with Light Custard and fresh berries, these add an elegant flourish to a special dinner.
Makes: 16 cream puffs

Nutrition Profile
Diabetes appropriate | Low carbohydrate |View Our Nutrition Guidelines »
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 5 large egg whites
- Set rack in the center of the oven; preheat oven to 425°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or coat them with cooking spray.
- Combine water, butter, oil, salt and sugar in a medium saucepan; bring just to a boil over medium heat. Remove from the heat and add flour all at once. Stir with a wooden spoon until it forms a smooth paste. Return the mixture to low heat and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes. This will slightly dry the paste. Remove from heat and cool for 2 minutes.
- Lightly whisk together whole eggs and egg whites. Beat one quarter of the egg mixture into the flour paste with an electric mixer until it is absorbed. Repeat with three more additions of the egg mixture, until the mixture is smooth and glossy. Note: The unbaked cream puff paste will be much less firm than that of a traditional cream puff.
- Drop heaping tablespoons of the mixture, 2 inches apart, on the prepared baking sheets. Bake one sheet at a time until puffed and well browned, 25 to 30 minutes. (Cover unbaked cream puffs with plastic wrap.) Poke each puff in two places with the tip of a paring knife to allow steam to escape, and cool on a rack.
- To serve, cut each cream puff in half with a serrated knife, removing any excess uncooked dough from the center. Fill as desired and serve immediately.
