Wednesday, August 4, 2010

ATLANTA -- Ever since Georgia State announced it was starting a football programs just over two years ago, the "Countdown to Kickoff" began.
With 29 days remaining until the Panthers' inaugural season begins with the Sept. 2 opener against Shorter at the Georgia Dome with the program's first media day and first day of practice, the countdown -- also called the "Countdown to Touchdown" -- is now called the "Countdown to History."
"We're a little fanatical about all these countdowns," GSU athletics director Cheryl Levick joked while introducing Panthers coach Bill Curry to the large media turnout Wednesday.
For many of the players who were with the program as it went through a year of practice last season, like Buford grad Ben Jacoby, the countdown can't get to zero soon enough.
And Monday's opening of the first official preseason practice was a welcome milestone.
"When I finally decided (to come to GSU), (the first season) was so far in the distant future," said Jacoby, the Panthers' starting center coming out of spring practice after transferring from Ball State a year ago. "Now that it's right upon us, it's so much more real."
Having had to deal with plenty of reality since building up the program from nearly day one, Curry has a different perspective on how fast the first season is approaching.
"I learned something a long time ago from a really wise man," said Curry, who welcomed 90 scholarship and walk-on players to campus Tuesday night. "We had (an assistant) coach at Alabama named Homer Smith. ... We were just starting spring practice (one year), and ... he gathered the offense and said, 'Now men, it's March 3. We'll be running on the field at Temple University,' where we were opening up the season in Philadelphia that year, 'We'll be running on the field before you know it.'
"He was right, and I never forgot that. It seems like it's gone fast."
The time Curry will have to incorporate 17 true freshman who were part of GSU's second recruiting class, plus several transfers -- including those who came from high-profile Division I programs like quarterback Star Jackson (Alabama), offensive linemen Joseph Gilbert and Clyde Yandell (Georgia Tech) and tight end Bailey Woods (Auburn) -- into the group that spent last year practicing may pass fairly quickly for his taste.
However, he is eagerly looking forward to see the talent level the newcomers will bring to the team.
More importantly, he is looking forward to how well the newcomers will raise the bar for the rest of the team as they prepare for the long-awaited season.
"We're very enthused about some of our personnel," Curry said. "Some of them are guys we recruited from a lot of different places. Some of (them) just flat out fell from the sky. We are so grateful for the transfers who came our way.
"As an overall team, we have enough personnel at all of the positions that we can do that which football teaches the best -- that is, to have competition. Last year when we were practicing and didn't have games to play, we also didn't have competition for positions. ... That's the advantage we now have. How we use our 29 practices is going to be the difference in how we perform."
Performance in this first season is very important to the Panthers.
They want to be seen as more than just a start-up program that will take their lumps coming out of the gate.
And the schedule -- which includes a mix of some very winnable games against NAIA, Division II and non-scholarship Division I-AA programs like Shorter, Lambuth and Campbell and more challenging games against I-AA foes like Jacksonville State and Morehead State, plus the much-ballyhooed season finale at defending BCS champion Alabama -- would seem to present that opportunity.
According to redshirt junior receiver Sidney Haynes, the Panthers have set their goals quite high.
"Overall, over the season, I think we want to have a winning program," the 2006 Peachtree Ridge graduate said. "I know one of the goals is to be going into Tuscaloosa (against Alabama) undefeated. That's the plan. That's what we're shooting for."
Curry says that goal may be a little overly ambitious, but the goal to be taken seriously and have a feel as being more than the average first-year program is very attainable.
"Well, first of all, I'm big-time with my granddaughters because they've seen the billboards," Curry quipped, referring to the billboards featuring his likeness throughout Georgia spreading the word of the new program. "First of all, our administration has done such a tremendous job of marketing and getting (the word) out there. Second is the reception, the way (the media) have responded to us. I know it's for real because you wouldn't do it if it weren't. ... So, that's really encouraging."

Friday the 13th, for some, marks a day of trepidation. It's bad luck, messy mojo and a horror film favorite. A triskaidekaphobic fears it and supernaturalists study it.
But for congressional Democrats, this Friday the 13th marks 100 days in power, perhaps only increasing the darkness of the day for the Republican majority that was replaced.
So what have the Democrats accomplished in their 14 weeks? Not much if bills becoming laws is the bar.
Democrats spent Thursday touting their accomplishments: They've passed a minimum wage hike, new lobbying rules and implementation of the 9/11 Commission recommendations; there's a new budget without much of the traditional pork spending, a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq and a rollback of stem cell federal funding restrictions.
Alas, despite the Democrats sweat and even some moderate Republican support, none of these measures has become law; none have even reached the president's desk for a veto -- but that didn't stop the celebration.
"In the Senate's first 100 days at work, we have passed legislation that cleans up Washington, gives working Americans a raise, cuts taxes for working families, restores fiscal responsibility and allows federal funding for stem cell research," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on the Senate floor.
"Democrats," the Nevada Democrat continued, "have also made the homeland more secure and continue to hold this administration responsible for its failed policies in Iraq."
The president has pledged he'll veto a number of the bills passed by the Senate but he hasn't gotten the chance. In most cases, the Democrat-controlled House and Senate haven't agreed on one version of the same bill, making for some busy days with few tangible results. They have to reconcile the differences and pass all the bills over again before they can be sent down Pennsylvania Avenue for President Bush's signature.
The Senate has been in session for 54 days, compared to the 41 days during Republican control at this point in 2006. (Granted, 2006 was a midterm election year.) The Democrats have held 128 votes; last year, at the 100-day mark, there had only been 90.
Republicans contend that while all these bills have passed in various forms in the two houses of Congress, they haven't really gotten much done.
The Democrats, however, have passed an enormous bill funding the federal government for one year. And to do this, they sidestepped the normal committee and amendment process.
Playing on the Democratic campaign slogan "6 for '06," Republicans distributed a list of things Democrats have not passed, calling it "0 for 7 in '07."
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ken., said that divided government gives a "unique opportunity to do some very significant things" in Washington, pointing to the unique relationship between Democratic House Speaker Tip O'Neill, D-Mass., and President Ronald Reagan in the '80s and welfare reform in '90s.
But, he said, "Regretfully, we are here at the end of the 100 days. Our opponents, the Democratic majority in the Senate played small ball. They have pursued their poll-tested, highly partisan agenda and the result of that is that nothing has been accomplished."
Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss., the former majority leader who is climbing his way back up the ladder of Republican leadership, said, "It has been a lot of action, a lot of talk, not a lot of days in session and no accomplishments."

This NHL lockout may literally be driving some people crazy. Dennis Leary was in town Saturday night for Comics Come Home, a charity event at Agganis Arena at Boston University that benefits the Cam Neely Foundation for Cancer Care. But while he and Neely did take a few moments to chat about the event and recent donations for Tufts Medical Center, Leary became much more animated when talk turned to the lockout. "I can tell you as a fan and union guy, I'm in support of the players," Leary said, calmly laying out the situation before starting to get worked up. "… I hate to say it, but I'm just begging. Please, guys, come back and play!" Leary said he couldn't take any more college hockey, and he didn't even think highly of what Tyler Seguin has been doing overseas, jabbing, "I could play in a Swiss league." Neely and NESN Daily co-host Adam Pellerin were just along for the ride. Check it out in the video above.

There are not too many games of this nature on the xbox 360. It is a fun thinking game. Who doesn't want to be "El Presidente". The controls are not to bad considering this game was ported over from the pc version of the game, but it is still just as fun. Each game can take hours.....

As described works perfect and great quality
Mar 31, 2014
By Ron
I bought a snowblower off of clist that wasnt fully functional. This was the only thing that needed to be replaced and it works like a champ. From what i have found this is a pretty common problem. Installation took about 2 hours to disassemble and put back together, also i replaced the belt while i was in there. Great product i would recommend it to anyone.

Murray snow thrower
Aug 31, 2010
By rob emmert
Wow- this item took forever to track down, doubled the amount I had invested in this machine but it eats snow like a champ. Good thing too cause last winter when I needed it most we got hit w/ a pair of 22 inch storms. This repair is not for the faint of heart tho' and requires some mechanical know-how.

Before purchasing, be sure the keyway matches up with the keyway opening on the shaft.
Jun 26, 2014
By MiBow
This gear fit perfectly except for the keyway opening. It ended up being a 1/16" of an inch too big for the keyway on the shaft it matched up to. Ended up having to a machine shop make it fit by making a bigger opening in the shaft to accommodate the size on the gear. Other than that if would have gotten five stars.

By JR "jorrr"
The gear on my snow blower broke only two years into using the snow blower (not using it very much). Apparently this is common. I bought this gear, opened the gearbox, and replaced it. Seems to work fine. Price was a little high.
Identical to the original snow blower auger drive gear. ...
Aug 25, 2014
By little ralphie
Identical to the original snow blower auger drive gear. This is not a worm gear. It is the gear the worm drives. Picture is correct, description is not clear. This is the gear that wear out. Keep extras on hand as they have a shorter life than one would think. A lot of load for such a small gear.

Father of a Lovely Celiac Daughter
88 Main St, Freeport, ME 04032
Per my 8 year old GF daughter: The. food is great and I like it so much and the restaurant is kids friendly.
15 Cottage Street, Bar Harbor, Maine
Kids friendly restaurant. The pancakes for kids were really good, but we had to wait about 20 minutes for a table. You need to order real maple syrup extra, because the regular syrup on the table may contain traces of gluten.
19 Main Street, Bar Harbor, ME 04609
As previously reported, good GF options and our waitress was intelligent enough to verify GF sensitivity versus Celiac. Also ensured peanut allergies were addressed.
255 State Street, Boston, MA 02109
Great place for GF adults and kids near Quincy Market and the Aquarium. Served warm GF bread before the meal.

Wow the Celtics looked good vs Denver last night. They ended up winning only by 26 but it wasn't that close. Up by 39 at the half (77-38) and the big three were all out by early in the 4th. Very impressive Celtics, very bland looking Nuggets.

The Atlanta Hawks have defeated Dallas and Phoenix so far this year.

Houston can beat the Spurs on the second of a back to back but you are making excuses for Denver because they played the Knicks the night before?
Denver didn't have a shot because Boston has the best trio of offensive weapons that the NBA has seen in a long, long, long time.
Playing the night before obviously isn't a help. But it is no reason to fall behind by 40 at the half.
Denver played at home Sunday. Flew cross country to New York on Monday. Played the Knicks on Tuesday, flew to Boston on Tuesday night and played Boston on Wednesday.
Houston played at Dallas, which is a cab ride away, and then beat San Antonio at home the next night. There is a slight difference.
I wasn't disrespecting the Celtics at all.

Not sure why a 240 mile journey from Dallas to Houston is a cab ride while 215 miles between Boston and New York requires a plane?

"The players make the manager, it's never the other way." - Sparky Anderson
Good timing for me huh?
So the team you are backing, had to go thru the trouble of going on a plane.
But the Rockets, the team I said had to go through the same thing, all they had to do was find their wife for the short car ride home.
The flight from Denver to New York has nothing to do with this and you know that. You had no idea how far it was between Boston and New York OR Houston and Dallas and IMO you decided the Texas cities were closer because they are in the same state.
I get that Denver was tired and that Melo was probably out shooting people on Monday night on his way home from Scores. But that isn't my problem. These guys get paid to play basketball. They get paid to take care of themselves. The Celtics have had to shake off jetlag from a preseason trip to Europe. When football or baseball teams do this all we hear about is how long it takes to get back in sync upon returning home. The Celtics lost their sixth man early in the game to back spasms. Doc Rivers dad just died and he hasn't been around as much. I could go on. Its called adversity. There is a reason that teams coming off a game the night before don't get a head start.
The Celtics have lost more games than I could count playing the second of the back to back. They usually play at home on Friday and then have to play on the road on Saturday. I'm sure the Celtics will lose plenty of games this season in this situation and no Celtic fan I know will use it as a crutch.
Boston is better than Denver. Maybe not 40 first half points better but better. That is why they won. Easily. You called the Knick game a hard fought battle. Go ask Denver who gave them the tougher time.
BTW, did you watch that Knick vs Denever game, knowing Denver would lose after that brutal flight from Colorado?
The team I was backing is awful, and will be until the Dolans relinquish ownership. I don't assume that they'll win any game that they're in. But once again, you forgo facts in search of an internet debate.
Boston is the best team in the NBA. They should just give them the trophy now. I'll be shocked if they don't go undefeated.

"The players make the manager, it's never the other way." - Sparky Anderson
Something to take note of when considering Boston's team. KG, Pierce and Allen are all playing a TON of minutes. Each is right about at 40 MPG right now.
If they continue to do this through the entire year, and more than likely they will because of how sad their bench is, it's going to have a big impact on them come playoff time.
On the other end of the spectrum, look at the Spurs. Tony parker is leading the team in minutes at 35 per game, and he's a young guy that shouldn't be running out of steam towards the end anyway. As much as I don't really like the Spurs, I have to respect how incredibly well-run they are.
Going to see the Spurs when they roll into town next week. WFU alumni group has arranged a deal where we'll get into Philips around 5:00 pm and get to check out the shoot-around, etc. They did it last year when Chris Paul & the Hornets were in town last year, and CP3 spent about 45 minutes signing autographs & posing for pictures for fellow Deac fans.
and for all this talk about the Hawks, just imagine how good they'd be if they had taken either Chris Paul or Deron Williams a couple of years ago instead of Marvin Williams. Either of those guys running with Joe Johnson in the backcourt would be lethal. And I still say they screwed themselves by not taking Mike Conley in the most recent draft. There hasn't been a decent PG in this town since Mookie Blaylock.
As for the way the season will unfold, I'll gaze into my crystal ball and speculate that folks will be talking about Kobe, they new Garnett dynasty in Boston, and all sorts of flashy other stuff all year long. The Spurs will yet again fly under the radar, and be the last team standing when the final buzzer sounds.
Tim is the man.
They've also got Tony Allen who is playing but is slowly working back from knee surgery. As the season goes along he will be able to play more minutes. And Big Baby has only been around for 5 games but he is coming along and will likely see more minutes.
I know it is has become the in thing to do, to criticize the Boston bench but if their bench is sad, could you give a couple of examples of Eastern Conference teams who don't have sad benches? Pretty much every team has a sad bench but for some reason it has become popular to only point it out only in regards to the team with the most talent in their starting five.
Why is nobody saying the Wizards have no bench? Or the Knicks? Or the Nets? Or the Heat? Or the Cavs? Take away David Lee and I question if these teams can combined to come up with 3 players better than Tony Allen, Eddie House and James Posey.
Here is an easy link to every teams roster. I'd love to know (being serious) the names of some Eastern teams with benches that aren't "sad":
15fan, no argument on the Spurs. But they have won 4 titles and have yet to win one back to back.

An interview with "Amy" director Asif Kapadia and producer James Gay-Rees.
Ed Harris in "Phantom" is like Steve Carlton with the Philadelphia Phillies in 1972 — delivering a wall-to-wall, amazing performance that's lost in a sea of dreadfulness.
That season, Carlton won 27 games for a Phillies team that finished 59-97. Harris delivers a nomination-worthy performance in a movie with a throwaway title, an abundance of closeups that provoke unintentional laughs, a few bizarre supernatural touches and one of the loopier endings in recent memory.
If they gave a Cy Young Award for acting, Harris would be a contender. That he kidnaps our attention and holds it throughout "Phantom" while playing a Soviet submarine captain who speaks English without a trace of an accent makes his work all the more impressive.
Inspired by true events, as they say, but filled with speculative fiction, "Phantom" takes place almost entirely aboard a nearly obsolete Soviet submarine in 1968. The sub will be stripped of some key elements and then sold to the Chinese — but first there's one last mission.
Harris plays Demi, a craggy-faced, world-weary Soviet sub commander who battles epilepsy, drinks too much and is plagued by flashbacks that seem right out of a horror movie. Nearing the end of his career, Demi has never escaped the shadow of his father, a legend in Soviet military lore. (How's that for an unoriginal twist?) But even though Demi's wearing a Soviet uniform, in charge of a Soviet ship and living in, well, the Soviet Union, I spent the first few minutes of the film wondering if Demi was actually an American, given that he was speaking perfect English without a trace of an accent.
Turns out writer-director Todd Robinson has made the bold and somewhat goofy choice to have all his actors talk in their normal voices, as if they're doing a table read and not in full costume with the cameras rolling. Whether it's William Fichtner as Demi's fiercely loyal right-hand man, Alex, or David Duchovny as Bruni, a "technician" who clearly has ulterior motives joining Demi's crew at the last moment, everybody just speaks "American."
Granted, it's always a bit jarring when a film about, say, German soldiers in World War II has all the actors speaking English with German accents — but it's even more unsettling when a bunch of "Soviet" sailors are talking about "the Americans," and yet they all sound like they're from Jersey or Chicago or Cali.
Robinson does a fine job of maneuvering the cast and his camera through the sub's narrow, labyrinthine corridors, but the murky, claustrophobic atmosphere turns thuddingly dull because we almost never leave the submarine, and the submarine almost never surfaces. "Phantom" paints itself into a tiny corner where there's little choice but to rely on tight shots of sweaty actors communicating in what we presume to be authentic sub-speak as Demi and his loyal crew square off against Bruni and his nefarious plans for the vessel.
There's a mutiny, as there so often is with movies of this sort, and we finally learn what Bruni and his KGB thugs have in store for the old sub. Suffice to say they've got a plan that could trigger World War III — or just get everybody aboard killed for no good reason. We get the obligatory few scenes in which a character goes on and on about another character's back story, for no other reason than to fill in the audience. Eventually we learn the true nature of those horrific flashbacks plaguing Demi.
With his smirk and his cool line readings, Duchovny is wildly miscast as a Cold War Soviet spy. Fichtner does fine work as a No. 2 whose loyalty to his commander and his country go hand in hand. Everybody else tries hard with material that asks us to not only suspend disbelief but also to expel it for the duration of the film. The ending is a howler, provoking uneasy chuckles when we're supposed to be feeling chills and maybe a tear or two. Whatever really happened with that sub in 1968, we can be reasonably sure this wasn't it.
But then there's Harris, holding our attention, whether he's springing into action or motionless, simply reflecting on a hard life nearing its end, with more failures than triumphs, more regrets than warm memories. It is a stellar performance from an actor who always comes to play, even when the story almost guarantees a lost cause.

Fox era in Carolina officially to end Sunday
CHARLOTTE, N.C. As John Fox left the practice field Friday, he insisted he's known about his impending departure for about two years.
A few hours later, the Carolina Panthers formally announced the end of his nine-year run in which he led the franchise to its only Super Bowl.
In a news release sent 10 minutes after the end of a college football bowl game at the team's stadium that owner Jerry Richardson attended, the Panthers finally announced the contracts of Fox and the rest of his staff wouldn't be renewed after Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"I told John today that I appreciate everything he has done for us over the last nine years, but as happens in this business, it is time for both sides to move in different directions," Richardson said in a statement.
Fox's departure has been no secret, and his last full practice at the Panthers' complex was an odd scene with the Meineke Bowl about to kick off just a few steps away. Fox gathered the players around him shortly before noon, with a burst of laughter heard from players as they broke toward the locker room.
"It's been a lot of great memories, a lot of fond memories, a lot of great relationships and something I'll cherish forever," Fox said. "Now (I'll) just embark on the next chapter."
Fox was first denied a contract extension after the 2008 season. He entered the last year of his deal this fall after the Panthers began a youth movement that's left them an NFL-worst 2-13.
"It's not new," Fox said of his impending departure. "It's something I've been preparing for actually for a couple of years."
A rift had developed between Richardson and Fox since Carolina's 33-13 loss to Arizona in the team's last playoff game in January 2009. Fox was more vocal this season in showing displeasure for several personnel moves that left the Panthers short on experience and talent.
The Panthers have the league's worst offense and have locked up the worst record and the No. 1 overall draft pick in April.
The 55-year-old Fox, who is making more than $6 million this season, is 78-73 in Carolina, which includes the franchise's only Super Bowl appearance after the 2003 season. But the Panthers have never had consecutive winning seasons under Fox, who inherited a 1-15 team from George Seifert in 2002.
In his statement, Richardson didn't address what he'd be looking for in a new coach. Only Jeff Fisher in Tennessee, Bill Belichick in New England and Andy Reid in Philadelphia have been with their teams longer than Fox, who had been the New York Giants' defensive coordinator.
"While we haven't accomplished all of the goals we set as an organization when we signed him in 2002, we have certainly had our share of high moments - the Super Bowl, two NFC championship games, and a division title in 2008," said Richardson, who hasn't answered questions from reporters in almost three years. "We wish John and his family the best going forward."

Afghanistan presses for answers on long-term U.S. military bases
KABUL (Reuters) – Afghanistan wants the United States to clearly spell out what sort of military presence it will leave behind once most of its combat troops leave by the end of 2014, a senior Afghan official said.
It is also pressing Washington in talks over future cooperation to detail to be more forthcoming on what will be on offer for Afghan forces as they ready to take over responsibility security in the country that is still at war.
Afghan defense ministry denies bomb plot
KABUL (Reuters) – Afghanistan strongly rejected reports that some soldiers working at the defense ministry were involved in a bomb plot, saying no arrests had been made nor were any vests used for suicide bomb attacks found on the premises.
On Wednesday there was no sign of a hard clamp down on personnel movements at the sprawling ministry with soldiers checking scores of visitors as usual. However, the fast spread of reports of a cache of suicide vests found at the defense ministry on Tuesday illustrates the tense atmosphere in Kabul following a spike in attacks on foreign soldiers by rogue Afghan security forces.
Taliban talkback: militants answer your questions online
KABUL (Reuters) – Want to know why the Afghan Taliban opened talks with the United States even though they have fought the world's most advanced military to a virtual stalemate or prospects for girls' schools if they regain power? Go online and post your question.
The Taliban have opened an online forum on their website, called "Your questions and Zabihullah Mujahid's answers" where readers are invited to leave queries for their spokesman to answer.
Three foreign soldiers killed by Afghan forces
KABUL (Reuters) – Three foreign soldiers, including two Britons, were shot dead by Afghan security forces personnel on Monday in the latest round of insider killings which have raised deep concerns about the reliability of NATO's local allies and their ability to keep the peace.
So-called insider attacks have mounted recently as tension between Afghanistan and its foreign backers rises over a series of incidents, including the burning of Korans at a NATO base and a massacre of 17 villagers for which a U.S. soldier has been charged.
Afghan Taliban say U.S. must rebuild trust for talks
KABUL (Reuters) – Afghanistan's Taliban will eventually resume talks with the United States, a former commander said, but it will depend on how Washington repairs trust damaged by a string of incidents, notably the killing of 16 Afghans blamed on a U.S. soldier.
The Taliban have suspended the nascent dialogue, blaming the United States for failing to deliver on a promise to transfer five of its leaders held by the U.S. military in Guantanamo Bay.
India eyes Pakistan for access to Afghan mine bonanza
NEW DELHI/KABUL, March 21 (Reuters) – India will explore a
route through rival Pakistan to transport iron ore from
Afghanistan, the head of a consortium involved in the $11
billion project said, hoping that economic benefits will
outweigh political hostility.
Despite a spike in tension in Afghanistan and uncertainty
over the future once foreign combat forces leave in 2014, India
was committed to developing the Hajigak mines and a 6 million
tonne steel plant alongside, C. S. Verma, chairman of Steel
Authority of India, told Reuters in an interview.
Afghanistan : the creeping enemy within
Shortly before U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta's plane was to land on an unannounced trip in southern Afghanistan on Wednesday, an Afghan man in a stolen pickup truck drove onto the tarmac at high speed. The truck crashed into a ditch after it sped across the runway ramp and the driver, whose motives were unclear, emerged from the vehicle in flames. No explosives were found on the man who later died or in the truck and the Pentagon said at no point was the defense chief's plane in danger. But it was an extraordinary breach of security at the British airfield in the southern province of Helmand which sits next to a vast U.S. Marine base.
Later that day U.S. Marines, gathered to hear Panetta speak, were ordered to leave their weapons outside the tent just like the Afghans who had been told before not to bring their weapons to the tent. The New York Times quotes the top U.S. military officer in Helmand as saying he wanted a consistent policy for both the Marines and their Afghan partners. Again it tells you about the nervousness that has crept into U.S. operations in Afghanistan, after a spate of green-on-blue attacks or attacks on coalition forces and advisers by their Afghan allies that strike at the heart of the mission to prepare the Afghan national forces to take over the fight against the Taliban.
Beneath the radar, a Russia-Pakistan entente takes shape
One of the early calls that Vladimir Putin took following his expected victory in the Russian presidential election last weekend was from Pakistan Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani. He congratulated Putin on his success and invited him to visit Islamabad in September which the Russian leader accepted, according to newspaper reports citing an official statement.
Culture wars: The burning of the Koran
U.S. President Barack Obama has apologised for the inadvertent burning of copies of the Koran at a military base in Afghanistan and the top general in the country has ordered all coalition troops to undergo training in the proper handling of religious materials by March 3.
Quite apart from the question of how can you "inadvertently" burn books, the bigger issue is can soldiers be so blindly ignorant of the consequences of their action ? Is it because these were soldiers in the rear, insulated in a huge base that sometimes feels like a little America with its gymns, snack joints and the easy conviviality between men and women, a setting far removed from the hard-scrabble country outside ?
Afghanistan: Asia's Congo
By Dan Magnowski
For many in the West, Afghanistan and Iraq have much in common.
Both are Islamic countries whose nasty regimes were kicked out by
the U.S. after September 11 2001; in both places, the Americans,
British and others stayed and spent huge amounts of money on nobody's
quite sure what; and both were examples of 'evil', back when that was
a cornerstone of foreign policy thinking.

TV Gal Is Conflicted by The CW
How can I boycott
Last week was one of the more wacky upfront weeks networks have seen in a long time. A week that answered the question -- when is a series finale not a series finale? (Two words: "7th Heaven." Get ready for twinsapoolza and I can only assume, Simon discovering he's the father of Sandy's baby). A week that saw the surprise (and most welcome) pick ups of "What About Brian" and "The Loop." A week that saw all the networks say "It is so on on Thursday night."
But you know what I want to talk about don't you? The positively devastating and callous cancelation of "Everwood." Kids, this one hurts even more than your typical "I can't believe 'Once and Again' isn't coming back next season" pain. Networks cancel my favorite shows all the time and, well, I've had to get used to it. If I didn't you find me rocking in the corner, still chanting about "Boomtown." But canceling "Everwood" feels like I won't be able to see members of my own family next season.
And I want to apologize to all the
Okay, well, we have a lot to talk about this week so I need to move on, but it's going to take me quite a long time to get over this one.
"Will & Grace" Series Finale
I'm simply not a fan of any kind of time travel in a series finale. And this is a show that spent eight seasons predicated on the lasting friendship of Will and Grace, and we're supposed to believe that they spent over 20 years not talking to each other just because their lives went in different directions? That there is no way their friendship could have been sustained once they both found the love of their life?
But I'm willing to confess that I cried (and so did my mom) when Jack and Karen sang "Unforgettable" to each other. It was a classy and perfect moment. The kind of moment I'll always remember when I think of that show. But the rest of the finale I could have done without.
How about you? What did you think of the series finale of "Will & Grace?" Talk about it on the TV Gal message board.
I wish you all could hear my (if I do say so myself) spot-on impersonation of Meredith's whiny "I'm with Finn now. And he has plans."
I'm so all set with both Meredith and Derek. If you want to be together, be together. It's not like one of them is off at war. Derek needs to grow up, divorce his wife and be with Meredith if that's what he wants. I think the show made a critical error by having them sleep together (and I'm telling you all I could think about was, hmmm ... with all those people around, wouldn't you want to lock the door?). Derek is considerably less Dreamy; he's an indecisive loser. I guess any time a TV show gets me this riled up it's a good sign that I have a vested interest in the series. I'll have much more to say about the finale (like why are they making Callie look so horrible?) next week.
Quotes of the Week
"The only people who don't know that Derek loves Meredith are Derek and Meredith." Addison to Richard on "Grey's Anatomy." Word.
"With this we conclude our first season of 'Earl.' We are very thankful for your support and we hope to see you next fall." What Catalina said in Spanish on the season finale of "
"You are a traitor to this country and a disgrace to our office. And it's my duty to see that you're brought to justice for what you've done. Is there anything else Charles?" Aaron to President Logan on "24."
"I get a choice now. I get to chose. I chose you Izzie Stevens." Denny to Izzie on "Grey's Anatomy." At that precise moment, I called my friend and said, "Denny is so going to die."
"They're not who they say they are. They're pretending." Walt to his father about the Others on "
"It's like all people see when they look at us are the supporting players on the Will and Grace show." Jack to Karen on "Will & Grace."
"I don't die that easy." Sydney to Sloane on "
"Kiss me. Remember this is a sweeps episode." Denny to Shirley on "Boston Legal." Thanks to Jane for the quote.
Where Have I Seen Them Before?
Well, we're all in an absolute tizzy regarding the actor-sharing program happening between "Veronica Mars" and "Grey's Anatomy."
Tessa Thompson, Jackie on "Veronica Mars," was Camille, the chief's niece who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Katherine recognized Sydney Tamiia Poitier, Mallory Dent the first season of "Veronica Mars," was the woman whose fiance dunked behind her when shots rang out. Poitier was also Rebecca, Kevin's journalist girlfriend on "Joan of Arcadia," and the title character in the short-lived UPN series "Abby."
And all this week's bonus points have to go to Sana who even remembered that
Heather was the first to recognize
Many of you caught series creator Aaron Sorkin at the President Santos' inauguration on the series finale of "The West Wing." If you missed him, go back and look for the close up shot of the only person not in the opening credits.
Jen recognized Robert Michael Morris, Mickey on "The Comeback," was the weatherman on "How I Met Your Mother." We also saw him earlier this season as a fan of Jack's on an episode of "Will & Grace."
Tania Raymonde, Alex on "Lost," was Cynthia, Malcolm's girlfriend on "Malcolm in the Middle." April Grace was the Other running the show (the one who told Michael who to bring back to the camp). She is most familiar to me for playing Sergeant Toni Williams on "Joan of Arcadia."
Highlights of the Week Ahead
All times listed are Eastern Time for May 15 to 21
The fifth longest day of Jack Bauer's life comes to a heart-stopping end in the two-hour season finale of
Ah, cruel, television schedule, how you mock me. Last week my TVs nearly exploded when "24," "Everwood" and "Grey's Anatomy" were all on at the same time. And now the first hour of series finale of "Alias" is on opposite the final hour of "24." I blame
I don't want to brag but I did predict that both Taylor Hicks and Katherine McPhee would make it to the Final Four back on March 13. My potential bragging is tempered by the fact that I was wrong about Paris and Mandisa (still so upset about Mandisa). Taylor and Katherine sing an original song (which will become their first single should they win) on Tuesday night (FOX, 8 p.m.) and then the whole gang gets back together for the two-hour finale of
I'm so freaked out about the two-hour season finale of "Lost" (Wednesday, ABC, 9 p.m.). I have no idea what is going to happen and that's the sign of a truly great show.
The 2005/2006 television season came to a close Wednesday night but don't tell FOX, because the network is heading right into the summer season with the premiere of
That's all for today. I'll be back next Monday with a May sweeps wrap up -- the good, the bad, and the downright ugly. We'll also have to talk about the season premiere of "Rescue Me." And coming in June, the annual Amy Awards. In the meantime, have a fabulous week. Go ahead and get out of the house, you have my okay. Have a question, seen a familiar face, have an inside scoop or want to nominate a quote of the week? Write me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Federal workforce, Filner, 'Realville' and more
This " free spirit" who refuses to follow any rules, has the audacity to call the police "pigs." Our police put their lives on the line every day for us and also for this ridiculous couple.
What a waste of newspaper space! There are so many young people who contribute to society doing charitable work, helping others and following rules. How about devoting some space to deserving young people? – Joan M. Galvin, Rancho Bernardo
Taking steps to curb concussions
Thank you to the American Academy of Neurology for developing new guidelines for athletes with concussions ("New guidelines on concussions," Local, March 19). With over 1 million athletes sustaining a concussion each year, and so many San Diego youth participating in sports, these rules will help coaches, parents and administrators recognize the symptoms and address them immediately. The most important part is that these guidelines emphasize getting the diagnosis right, which in turn can lead to a more accurate treatment plan.
By providing basic rules for care providers, we're taking a tangible step toward making sure a system is in place to protect our youth from a poor initial diagnosis. There is still a long way to go to ensure that patients of all ages and conditions avoid the troubling repercussions of an initial misdiagnosis. These rules set an example for doctors, patients, and policymakers everywhere to place the highest priority on making sure the diagnosis is right before all else. – Evan Falchuk, vice chairman, Best Doctors Inc., Boston

Arnot-Roberts Clajeaux Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2010
Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma County, California
Winemaker's Notes
A cool and rocky site in the Mayacama Mountains is home to the Clajeux Vineyard. Arnot-Roberts have hand worked the same 12 rows in this vineyard-formerly called Wild Iris-since 2003. Planted to clone 7 in well drained volcanic soils, this site is cooled by afternoon breezes sweeping in from the Russian River Valley below and the ocean to the West. As a result, the vineyard is characterized by long slow flavor development in the grapes and naturally low yields. Fermented 30% whole cluster and aged 22 months in 30% new French oak barrels hand crafted by Nathan Roberts.
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Dark purple. Textbook cabernet aromas of cassis, cherry, pipe tobacco and pungent herbs, with a suave vanilla overtone. Plush and palate-coating, offering gently sweet dark fruit and floral pastille flavors and a touch of licorice. Becomes spicier with air and finishes with superb persistence, clarity and subtle, harmonious tannins. "
Vinous / Antonio Galloni - "A relatively soft wine, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Clajeux Vineyard, from the Chalk Hill District, comes across as quite supple in this flight of 2010 Cabernets from Arnot-Roberts. Juicy plums, blackberries, smoke, cloves, asphalt and violets meld together in this decidedly fleshy, expressive Cabernet. Elements of inner tension are nicely balanced by the pure density of the fruit. My impression is that this 2010 will mature earlier than some of the other Cabernets in the range."
Arnot-Roberts Winery
Arnot-Roberts was Founded in 2001 in Healdsburg, CA by childhood friends, Duncan Arnot Meyers and Nathan Lee Roberts. The focus of this two person operation is on small lot, single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Chardonnay, as well as several other varieties uncommon in Northern Californian vineyards. Sites are carefully chosen and are generally on the cooler end of the spectrum for the planted varieties. Collaboration with dedicated and passionate growers is paramount in the farming of these sites.
Duncan and Nathan grew up around winemaking in the Napa Valley. Nathan is a second generation cooper and personally builds all of the French oak barrels that are utilized in the ageing of all Arnot-Roberts wines. Over the years Duncan has worked making wine in the Napa Valley in wineries like, Caymus, Groth, Acacia, Kongsgaard.
Total production of Arnot-Roberts is around 2,000 cases per year with thirteen individual wines. Both primary and secondary fermentations are carried out utilizing native yeast. For the Syrahs whole clusters are retained during primary fermentation before being basket pressed to French oak barrels. For the Cabernets, hillside sites of intense character are chosen, small amounts of whole clusters are retained during primary fermentation and the wines are aged for two years in varying amounts of new French oak cooperage, selected and toasted to meld with the vintage at hand. White wines are whole cluster pressed and stainless steel fermented with native yeast, then aged in neutral French oak barrels. View all Arnot-Roberts Wines
About Sonoma CountyRelated Links:
Twice as large as Napa in size, Sonoma County only makes about a half the amount of wine as her northeasterly neighbor. But Sonoma, with her size, is able to vouch for more diversity within her borders, including sub-AVAs that are climatically varied. The atmosphere of Sonoma is decidedly laid back and down home country style. But in wines, they are keeping up with the Joneses, or Napa-ites if you will. Grape varieties are more varied here, from Pinot Noir and Zinfandel to Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay.
Notable FactsThe largest sub-AVAs of Sonoma include Dry Creek Valley, Russian River Valley, Alexander Valley and Sonoma Valley. Each sub-AVA, with its own micro-climate, is unique in its grape varieties and styles of wine. Dry Creek makes a mean Zinfandel while Russian River produces stand up Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The Alexander Valley makes some of the better Cabernet Sauvignons in the county and Sonoma Valley creates excellent wines from all the above varieties. Other grapes found throughout Sonoma include Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot and Syrah.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Crisp
- Light to medium bodied wines that are high in acid and light to medium fruit. Typically no oak.
Fruity & Smooth
- Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Rich & Creamy
- Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.
