But it is what Woz did with that challenge that has permanently locked him into the Hall of the Fame of the electronics revolution: He took what was essentially a business of klugey, improvised, one-off designs and turned it into an elegant, simple and powerful architecture that could be sold by the millions to everyday consumers. This was a vision not unlike Henry Ford's.
But Woz didn't stop there; because to accomplish this elegant act of simplification, he had to go deeper into the world of computers than anyone had ever gone before. Sure, there were thousands of mainframe and minicomputers experts out there in the mid-'70s. But, when necessary, they could apply brute-force solutions to their designs. Woz didn't have that luxury; rather, he had to rethink the very nature of computer components, how they worked together and how they could assume tasks for which they had not been designed . . . all while keeping an eye on size, heat dissipation, energy consumption and the availability of standard parts.
This wasn't an army of product developers at a Fortune 500 corporation doing this, but one kid in his early 20s in his tiny apartment.
But that's just the beginning, because the only way Woz could hope to accomplish this was not from the outside looking in, but to actually inhabit the world of computing itself. For a brief period in his late teens and early 20s, Steve Wozniak seemed to intuitively understand computing as if it was musical notes or color and form. I once described him as the Mozart of computing, and I wasn't exaggerating.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed the myth myself. But, as it happened, one day I was at Apple and passed by Woz's incredibly messy office. I heard him talking to no one in particular, so I stopped to listen … and realized that he was talking to his computer. It turned out that the machine he was working on had no compiler, so he had to enter the programming each time he turned it on. That's what he was doing as I watched, talking as he typed. But to this observer, watching code pop up on the computer screen in response to Woz's words, it was exactly as if man and machine were having a conversation. It made the hair stand up on my neck; as it did years later when Woz told me that during that era he used to dream in assembly code.
Woz's Apple I, and even more the landmark Apple II, still stand among the greatest virtuoso performances in the history of technology. But in creating them, Woz also planted the seeds of his own obsolescence. The Apple II set off the personal computing revolution, but never again would there be a place for one solitary genius to design an entire machine. Henceforth, it would be a world of giant companies and big, well-funded design teams . . . a world for which Steve Wozniak was almost perfectly ill-suited.
Everything up to this point had made Woz a legend; what has come after has made him extraordinary, and brave.
Think about it: What would you do if, at age 27, you had already changed the world, left your mark in the history books, and were coming down from a kind of fevered state of genius that had consumed your late adolescence but was now gone and was unlikely to ever return?

Not Sienna and not Vienna but...
But, what?
I like both names, but we can't use sienna and I don't like the sausage connection with Vienna, not to mention I have never been to Austria.
What names are similar to these? They don't have to rhyme obviously, but I just liked them both and want something similar, and feminine but less common. :-) thank you to anyone with suggestions!Formerly Sully82 (lost my password)

2015 is going to be a busy year for Lyric Unlimited, which is presenting three world premieres and a brand-new family performance! Read more about these great new projects, which include a klezmer opera and a zoo opera!
2015 is going to be a busy year for Lyric Unlimited, which is presenting three world premieres and a brand-new family performance! Lyric General Director Anthony Freud and Lyric Unlimited Director Cayenne Harris take you through these exciting new projects:
Adapted from the acclaimed graphic novel by Rutu Modan, The Property tells the story of Regina Segal and her granddaughter Mica, who travel to modern Warsaw to try to regain family property lost during World War II. As their journey unfolds, Regina is forced to confront painful truths about her past, while Mica realizes their reasons for coming might not be all that they seemed.
This world-premiere opera is being composed by Wlad Marhulets and will be in the klezmer style. Stephanie Fleischmann and Eric Einhorn have adapted the novel and will act as librettist and director, respectively.
The Property will be presented in partnership with the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts at the University of Chicago and will be performed at that venue and at Skokie's North Shore Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets go on sale on July 1!
Let's all go to the zoo! In August 2015, Lyric Unlimited presents world premiere of a new children's opera, Second Nature, at the beautiful and historic Lincoln Park Zoo. Second Nature is set in the not-so-distant future, when the environment has deteriorated and humans have decided it's safer to live in zoo-like habitats that protect them from the outside world. Encouraged by the other animal inhabitants, two young children dare to explore the world outside the walls to see if there is still something worth saving.
American composer Matthew Aucoin is both composer and librettist, and Matthew Ozawa directs. This new presentation is recommended for families with children ages 8 to 12. And best of all, it's free and open to the public!
Preview performances for the highly anticipated mariachi opera El Pasado Nunca Se Termina have been added at Benito Juaréz Community Academy in Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood and Waukegan's historic Genesee Theatre. Tickets for these previews are available July 1. Seats for the world-premiere performances right here at Lyric are available now!
And tickets for The Magic Victrola are available right now, so save your seats today for this all-new family concert with music from Mozart's The Magic Flute, Bizet's Carmen, and other beloved operatic masterworks.

Did you know that Don Giovanni actually was Lyric Opera of Chicago's (then called the Lyric Theatre of Chicago) very first production in 1954? Here's a look at how this monumental opera has evolved throughout Lyric's history.
Lyric's Diamond Anniversary season opens up in grand style on September 27 with a brand-new production of Mozart's Don Giovanni from the always-innovative directorial mind of Robert Falls, artistic director of Goodman Theatre.
Did you know that Don Giovanni actually was Lyric Opera of Chicago's very first production in 1954? Here's a look at how this monumental opera has evolved over the years at Lyric. And what's in store for this year? Subscribe now to reserve your seat!
Lyric Theatre of Chicago's first season opens with Nicola Rossi-Lemeni and Eleanor Steber starring as Don Giovanni and Donna Anna in a production directed by William Wymetal and conducted by company co-founder Nicola Rescigno. Below is an ad proof from the Chicago Daily News and a costume photo of Nicola Rossi-Lemeni in character. Lyric would mount this same production with Rossi-Lemeni again in the title role in 1959, this time with Georg Solti (before he was music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra) as conductor.
In 1961, Lyric presented a new production of the opera from director Wolfgang Weber with Peter Maag as conductor. Eberhard Waechter starred as Don Giovanni. Pictured below (top left) are Walter Berry as Leporello and Lisa Della Casa as Donna Elvira. The company revived the production in 1964, this time with Nicolai Ghiaurov in the title role. Shown from this production are Ghiaurnov and Nicoletta Panni as Zerlina (top right) and a wide view of the stage during Act 2, when the Commendatore (Bruno Marangoni) confronts Giovanni.
The multitalented Tito Gobbi both starred as the Don and directed this production, which featured sets and costumes by the legendary designer Peter J. Hall. In this photo, Don Giovanni (Gobbi) seduces Zerlina (Judith Raskin).
Donna Anna (Claire Watson), Don Ottavio (Alfredo Kraus), and Donna Elvira (Ilva Ligabue) in disguise during the party at Don Giovanni's house.
In 1980, Lyric mounted a new-to-Lyric production (originally from the Salzburg Festival) by Jean-Pierre Ponnelle, one of the most celebrated directors and set designers in opera. Ponnelle wore many hats for this production as well, both directing and designing sets and costumes, characterized by their somber tone and death-haunted imagery.
The production proved to be so popular that it was revived twice: first with Samuel Ramey in the title role in the 1988-89 season, and then with James Morris as Don Giovanni and an up-and-coming Bryn Terfel as Leporello. Morris was appearing as Wotan in that same season as part of Lyric's first-ever Ring cycle.
Shown above (clockwise starting from top right) are Richard Stilwell as Don Giovanni and Stafford Dean as Leporello in the 1980 presentation; Samuel Ramey as the Don in 1988-89; Richard Stilwell's Don surrounded by his ladies of the night in 1980; Donna Elvira (Carol Vaness), Zerlina (Susanne Mentzer), Masetto (Roberto Scaltriti), Leporello (Terfel), Don Ottavio (Frank Lopardo), and Donna Anna (Luba Organasova) gesture towards the deceased Giovanni (James Morris) in 1988-89); and Leporello and Giovanni sing together (l-r Bryn Terfel and James Morris).
For Lyric's 50th anniversary season, Bryn Terfel returned—this time as Don Giovanni! This new Lyric Opera production from director Peter Stein featured Susan Graham in a role debut as Donna Elvira, Karita Mattila as Donna Anna (with recent Ryan Opera Center graduate Erin Wall filling in for an ill Mattila on opening night), Ildebrando D'Arcangelo as Leporello, and even a young Kyle Ketelsen as Masetto. Christoph Eschenbach made his podium debut, with Sir Andrew Davis stepping in for a few performances.
(Clockwise from top left) - Graham as Donna Elvira; Leporello (D'Arcangelo) and Giovanni (Terfel) in the cemetery; Giovanni (Terfel) attempts to seduce Zerlina (Isabel Bayrakdarian); Leporello (D'Arcangelo), Masetto (Ketelsen), Zerlina (Bayrakdarian), Don Ottavio (Kurt Streit), Donna Anna (Mattila), and Donna Elvira (Graham) confront Giovanni (Terfel).

This just in! Illinois native and Second City alum Jane Lynch will be emceeing Lyric's spectacular 60th Anniversary Concert on Saturday, November 1. She has won an Emmy and Golden Globe for her portrayal of the scheming Sue Sylvester on Glee, but she has an amazing array of roles in her repertoire. Here are some of our favorite Jane Lynch gems from throughout her career.
This just in! Illinois native Jane Lynch will be emceeing Lyric's spectacular 60th Anniversary Concert on Saturday, November 1. As she notes in her official bio, Lynch "cut her theatrical teeth at The Second City, Steppenwolf Theatre, and in many church basements all over the greater Chicagoland area, helping her become the comedic talent she is today."
Lyric creative consultant Renée Fleming personally invited Lynch to host the concert, after meeting her at the National Christmas Tree lighting in 2013 and they reconnected during Fleming's recent performances of A Streetcar Named Desire in Los Angeles. "As all of America knows by now, she is a comedic genius," said Fleming. "I can't wait to see her dry wit and impeccable timing on the Lyric stage!"
Lynch adds to an already-amazing lineup of stars including Lyric creative consultant Renée Fleming, jazz legend Ramsey Lewis, and opera stars Stephanie Blythe, Johan Botha, Christine Goerke, Susan Graham, Quinn Kelsey, Mariusz Kwiecień, Ana María Martínez, Eric Owens, Sondra Radvanovsky, Samuel Ramey, Marina Rebeka, and Amber Wagner, as well as members of the Ryan Opera Center and The Second City. Lyric's Music Director Sir Andrew Davis will lead the Lyric Opera Orchestra. Plus, world-renowned architect Jeanne Gang is designing a brand-new concert shell that will debut at this one-night-only event. (Read more here.)
Lynch has won an Emmy and Golden Globe for her portrayal of the scheming Sue Sylvester on Glee, but she has an amazing array of roles in her repertoire. Here are some of our favorite Jane Lynch gems from throughout her career:
Lynch's singing and acting prowess were showcased on Broadway in 2013 when she played the villainous Miss Hannigan in the revival of this beloved musical.
Lynch's breakout role was this turn as dog trainer Christy Cummings in this Christopher Guest mockumentary. She has great chemistry with her hilarious co-star, Jennifer Coolidge, who played the ditzy dog owner Sherri Ann Cabot.
Lynch was the delightfully deranged boss of the titular character, played by Steve Carell, who had more than a passing interest in his dilemma.
Lynch played the sweetly naïve actress Constance Carmell on this regrettably short-lived series.
She lent her voice acting talents to this Disney animated film, playing the no-nonsense army commander Calhoun.
Making her mark in yet another Christopher Guest mockumentary, Lynch memorably portrayed Laurie Bohner, a folk singer who has some unique religious beliefs.
Lynch's reformed drug addict Gayle Sweeny was the highlight of this film about two men forced to do community service.

At Lyric, each opera season has eight different productions. So how do you choose just eight from the whole history of opera, plus new operas that are being written each year? Lyric's General Director Anthony Freud and Music Director Sir Andrew Davis take you through the basics of planning a season, which is part science and part subjectivity.

Pruning Confederate jasmine
By Kathy Huber | June 1, 2002
Q. I have Confederate jasmine on my patio brick wall. The vines have gotten thick and seem woody. I would like to prune. When can I do this and how?
-- M.R., El Campo
A. I imagine the vines have just finished flowering, so you can prune now and not miss any blooms. You can remove any straggly branches and prune other shoots to a more desirable length.

Give public education your vote
CORPUS CHRISTI - The public has a general understanding that a complementary relationship exists between investing in education and economic growth. The moral and financial support for providing quality public education to all has been a goal of our democratic society since the integration of our schools in the 1950s and 1960s.
That said, Texas was slower to racially integrate schools and has evolved, on average, slower in terms of academic achievement if using average SAT scores and high school completion rates as a measure. Texas has ranked at the bottom of the nation in per-pupil spending during the last few decades, and the entire system of funding public education in Texas has been ruled unconstitutional by our own state supreme court (Kirby v. Edgewood, 1989).
On top of this reality is the fact that our state faces a significant "achievement gap" between Anglo and minority students in public schools, largely due to a history of discrimination and poverty. Minority students are dropping out and underachieving at disproportionate rates. In January of 2011, the Texas Education Agency released data that Hispanics, for the first time in history, make up a majority of the public school population in K-12 at 50.2 percent.
Under these circumstances, common sense would indicate that embracing public education and devoting more resources would be in order. Unfortunately, with the November elections of 2010, a new crop of legislators rode into Austin in January of 2011. The result was disastrous to public education and defied history, in a state that already was playing catch-up.
For the first time in modern history:
* The Texas Senate passed a budget bill in the regular session slashing school funding-straight along party lines. (Senate Budget bills have always had some bipartisan support during the regular session.)
* The Legislature did not at least increase funding to adjust for increased student enrollment (Texas schools will see 160,000 additional students in the next biennium, majority being people of color — with significantly less money to teach them.)
* $5.4 billion cut from the Texas public education budget.
* In August, Texas lost nearly 10,000 public sector jobs as school districts cut positions and unemployment in Texas crept up to 8.5 percent — the highest rate in 25 years!
* Full-day pre-K in Texas: 100 percent CUT for the 2012-13 biennium. (The state no longer pays for full day pre-K, despite the research proving the value of early education.)
These cuts have been the deepest to public education since World War II. Who will be around to clean up the mess? The data is now coming in after living with these budget cuts during the fall semester of 2011. Teachers and school employees are telling their stories and the survey responses are less than desirable. The damage is not limited to layoffs. A sad story is being told by educators across the state: increased class sizes, understaffed classes where special education students do not receive adequate instruction and supervision, inadequate supplies and the materials necessary to enhance learning, and cuts to fine arts and music, all due to insufficient funding.
The cuts affected more than classroom environments. Inadequate custodial staffing ratios are becoming the norm and this is also negatively affecting the environment of the campuses.
The bottom line is Texas has failed public education. The state Constitution mandates that adequately funding public education is the state government's responsibility.
Unfortunately, our own Coastal Bend legislative delegation dropped the ball and cratered to Rick Perry's plan to gut public education. Connie Scott, Raul Torres and even Todd Hunter produced a voting record that repeatedly undermined our public schools and the people that work in them. From protecting class size safeguards, using the Rainy Day Fund, closing special interest tax loop holes, allowing charters to take over neighborhood schools, cutting per-pupil spending, protecting teacher contracts — Hunter, Torres and Scott repeatedly failed the public and shortchanged our students. We can do better as a community and should hold our legislators to a higher standard of accountability. The next election is in November 2012 and the public will have an honest chance to re-establish our values and fundamental commitment to public education. At the Texas American Federation of Teachers we have a saying — "We're watching, we remember and we vote."

Fiesta Inn Cuautitlan
Best comments
"Great Experience!"
I visited this hotel while working in the area and was very pleased with the quality and service. Especially the evening crew Adrian, Moises, Jose and Chef Miguel. The food is great! And they take care of every aspect of your stay while you are there. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is in the are and needs a convenient hotel with great customer service
"Good value for the money and very good customer service!"
My wife and I stayed in this Fiesta Inn Cuautitlan on May 1-2 2015 as we were attending a wedding in the nearby Tepozotlan area. We were gladly surprised by the excellent and kind service offered by all the staff since arriving. Check in was very fast, Internet service worked well and swimming pool and gym facilities were in very good conditions. Still this is a business-oriented hotel and is very similar to other hotels of the same chain (not really designed for a pleasure stay). However, what makes different this hotel for the rest of the Fiesta Inn is how courteous and service is the personnel. Its outstanding how in this location in particular the staff really make an effort to make your stay a pleasant experience. Its more outstanding the service level comparing against other hotels from the same chain we have visited: Santa Fe, Patriotismo, & Reforma (all in Mexico DF), In conclusion, this is a good option if: -You need to attend the Cuautitlan or Tepozotlan areas (bizz, wedding, or visiting nearby eco-park "Xochitla"). - A short stay (1/2 days) and looking for clean room with some amenities (OK pool and good wifi service, OK restaurant). Probably not that good option if: -You are looking for some 5-star/luxury stay (booking to some VIP visitors or so); - if you are planning to go Mexico City frequently (it's still far away and could take more that 2 hours in rush hour). Still in general a nice hotel which we gladly would return if we had the chance!!!
"Nice hotel for business travel"
I stay here regularly for business and have always had a good experience. The rooms are clean and quite and the food at the restaurant is good. The gated shopping center where the hotel is located also has a lot of nice places to shop and eat. This is not a high thrills hotel, but it is very clean and feels safe. Most of the staff I have encountered speak at least a little bit of English, and some speak it very well. As far as I know it is the best hotel in the area.
"Not a Business Class hotel as advertised."
The ease of booking this stay was phenomenal. The problems started at check in. The room reserved was a king bed, non-smoking superior on a high floor. The room presented me was a single bed on the 1st floor and at a higher rate as booked. I had the confirmation email on my phone and they honored the rate, except for the "superior" room and high floor. I ended up with a tiny room with a king bed on the first floor. The view out the 1st floor window was of a Mexican slum. Very depressing but eye opening to the true plight of the Mexican underclass. The room was OK by Mexico standards. By US business standards it was poor. The sheets had holes in them. The AC NEVER maintained temperature. The room was dusty and generally dirty. All of the modern amenities promised on their web site did not materialize. The only redeeming quality was the location. It was within walking distance to many restaurants, both local and chain and (WOOOHOOOO) Wal-Mart. The only reason I would say there again is the proximity to my customer. Mexico City traffic dictates that one stays as close to the destination as possible.
"Fiesta Inn, Cuautitlan, Mexico"
I was thoroughly satisfied with the service and the value I received at the Fiesta Inn. The room was clean, wifi connection was good and free of charge, and room service was quick and satisfying. I would highly recommend this hotel.

From the subtle poetry of Field Report to the shaggy pop-rock of Jaill to the intense electronic beats of Lorn, these three acts - which all had albums released by record labels this year - displayed to locals and outsiders alike the diversity of Milwaukee music. Geography and originality are practically all they had in common.
"Field Report," Jaill's "Traps," and Lorn's "Ask the Dust" all made my top 10 Milwaukee album list this year, as did several self-releases that rivaled, and in many cases surpassed, albums with major-label support. In a just world, all of these artists would have record deals, and perhaps some day, their big break will come. In the meantime, they're ours to treasure. »Read Full Article

2007 East Carolina
Even after surprising Boise State in the Hawaii Bowl, East Carolina
couldn't help but wonder what might have been had it not gagged in
November. Winners of five of six games at the time, and seemingly
in cruise control in the East Division, the Pirates inexplicably
lost to 1-8 Marshall, the death knell in their quest to remain ahead
of UCF. Still, it was a building block season for third-year coach
Skip Holtz, who got a monster season from do-everything RB Chris
Offensive Player of the Year: RB Chris Johnson
Defensive Player of the Year: S Van Eskridge
Biggest Surprise: Johnson. Hey, everyone knew Johnson was a
blazer, but in three years in Greenville, he'd never put together a
full season. The same kid that hadn't rushed for more than 684
yards in a season exploded for 1,423 yards on the ground and a
nation's-best 227 all-purpose yards per game.
Biggest Disappointment: The Nov. 10 loss to Marshall came out
of nowhere, and was East Carolina's ugliest performance of the
season. At the time, the Herd was skidding and the Pirates were
soaring, but none of that mattered in a 26-7 defeat that would haunt
ECU for the rest of the month.
Looking Ahead: Although Johnson's graduation leaves a gaping
void on offense, the Pirates return enough letterwinners on both
sides of the ball to be considered one of the early favorites to win
the East in 2008. More will be expected of QBs Rob Kass and Patrick
Pinkney, who had their moments in 2007, but lacked consistency.

2007 Hawaii Bowl
East Carolina 41 ... Boise State 38
East Carolina avoided a huge collapse with a 44-yard drive in
six plays finishing up with a 34-yard Ben Hartman field goal with no
time left on the clock. Pirate RB Chris Johnson set the NCAA record
for all-purpose yards in a bowl while scoring from 68 yards out on a
first quarter run and caught an 18-yard scoring pass in the second.
Down 38-14, and without star RB Ian Johnson, who was knocked out
with an ankle injury, Boise State came roaring back with 24 straight
points helped by a 25-yard Jeremy Avery touchdown catch, a one-yard
D.J. Harper scoring run, and on a 47-yard fumble return for a
touchdown from Marty Tadman with 1:25 to play after Chris Johnson
put it on the turf. Dominique Lindsay scored on two three-yard
touchdown runs in the second quarter. ECU outgained Boise State 322
yards to 98 on the ground.
Offensive Player of the
East Carolina RB Chris Johnson ran 28 times for 223 yards and a
touchdown, caught three passes for 32 yards and a score, and
returned six kickoffs for 153 yards. He set the NCAA record for

Thoughts & Notes ... Did Boise State start to believe its own hype?
After everyone picking the Broncos to walk past East Carolina, the
Hawaii Bowl turned out to be a shocker early on as the Pirates and
Chris Johnson came out roaring. This appeared to be a fully focused
ECU team, but once Boise State settled down, it showed a little of
the magic expected with the fantastic comeback. In the end, this
wasn't the same Bronco defense as it was in past years, getting
shoved around way too easily up front. ... The loss of Ian Johnson
to an ankle problem isn't an excuse for Boise's loss, but with the
offense already reeling after not having burgeoning star receiver
Jeremy Childs, who was out for violating team rules, the team
struggled to find a go-to playmaker. Taylor Tharp started to play
well late, but he's not the type of quarterback who could carry the
offense by himself. ... Lost in the heroics of a last-second field
goal for the ECU win, and the wild fourth quarter, was a tremendous
day from both punters. ECU's Matt Dodge put it in the end zone four
times, but he showed great blast averaging 43.1 yards on seven
kicks. Boise State's Kyle Brotzman averaged 42.2 yards on four
Nov. 24
East Carolina 35 ... Tulane 12
Chris Johnson ran for touchdowns from five and seven yards
out, and took a pass 33 yards for a touchdown, as East Carolina ran
past Tulane. Matt Forte added to his 2,000-yard season with a
120-yard day with a three-yard scoring run late in the fourth, but
it wasn't nearly enough to overcome Johnson's three scores and three
touchdown passes from Rob Kass.
Player of the game:
East Carolina RB Chris Johnson ran 27 times for 155 yards and two
touchdowns, and caught four passes for 85 yards and a score.
Stat Leaders: Tulane - Passing: Anthony Scelfo,
12-20, 133 yds

East Carolina - Passing: Rob Kass, 12-18, 177
yds, 3 TD
Rushing: Chris Johnson, 27-155, 2 TD. Receiving: Chris
Johnson, 4-85, 1 TD
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... ECU came
up with a nice, efficient day in the relatively easy win over Tulane
to secure a bowl slot. Coming off the bad loss to Marshall two weeks
ago, the Pirates needed a good game, and it got one thanks to Chris
Johnson. While he might not be a first-team all-star in a league
with Matt Forte and Kevin Smith, he proved once again that he's one
of the nation's best all-around backs. The defense wasn't a rock,
but it was good enough for three quarters to keep the Green Wave out
of the end zone.
Nov. 10
Marshall 26 ... East Carolina 7
East Carolina was stuffed for just 259 yards and managed only
a four-yard Chris Johnson touchdown run in the third quarter as
Marshall took a 16-0 lead highlighted by a 23-yard E.J. Wynn
touchdown pass and a 75-yard Bernard Morris scoring run. Emmanuel
Spann caught a 17-yard touchdown pass to put the game was in the
fourth quarter, and Anthony Binswanger iced it with his second field
goal coming with just under six minutes left. Morris became the
first Marshall quarterback to run for 1,000 yards in a season.
Player of the game:
Marshall QB Bernard Morris completed 24 of 32
passes for 238 yards two touchdowns, and ran 11 times for 126 yards
and a touchdown

yds, 2 TD
Rushing: Bernard Morris, 11-126, 1 TD. Receiving: E.J.
Wynn, 6-51, 1 TD
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... The
Pirates were in a position to still possibly win the East, and then
it came up with a clunker the week after rolling offensively against
Memphis. Chris Johnson was fine but for the third straight week,
there wasn't nearly enough from the passing game. Patrick Pinkney
isn't being asked to make any big plays deep, but he might need to
push it down the field a little more in a possible shootout with
Tulane next week.
Nov. 3
East Carolina 56 ... Memphis 40
East Carolina ran for 491 yards helped by 301 yards from Chris
Johnson along with four touchdowns. Jonson tore off scoring runs
from 16, 44, and 70 yards, and then put the game out of reach with a
50-yard dash late in the fourth. The Memphis defense couldn't slow
down the Pirates, but the offense exploded with Martin Hankins and
the passing game bombing away for 416 yards with four touchdown
passes. Down 21-6, the Tigers got back in the game with two Hankins
touchdown throws only to see ECU pull away with a 28-point third
quarter. The ECU passing game also got involved as Pat Pinkney threw
two touchdown passes in the third. In all, the two teams combined
for 1,134 yards of total offense.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... The
offense has quickly become unstoppable at just the right time. Chris
Johnson was brilliant with big run after big run, while Patrick
Pinkney did enough to keep the chains moving and provide some
semblance of balance. The offense always pulled ahead after Memphis
was able to get close. There were ten penalties and nothing from the
pass defense, but it was still a big win. With two of the league's
lightweights, Marshall and Tulane, ahead, ECU just has to get the
offense rolling again for two more games and it's on to the
Conference USA title game.
Oct. 27
East Carolina 41 ... UAB 6
East Carolina got up right away with a 35-yard John Williams
touchdown run, and answered a UAB field goal with a field goal of
its own and a three-yard Dominique Lindsay touchdown run. The game
opened up in the third quarter with the Pirates scoring 21
unanswered points with Chris Johnson tearing off a 20-yard scoring
run and Pat Pinkney throwing two touchdown passes, highlighted by a
52-yard play to Jamar Bryant. UAB only managed two Swayze Waters
field goals.

Jamar Bryant, 6-114, 1 TD
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... ECU
bounced back nicely from the loss to NC State with a balanced,
explosive performance against UAB with a little help from several
sources. With 216 rushing yards and 255 through the air, ECU had
little trouble moving the ball on a not-that-bad defense. Now the
attack has to remain consistent in two road games at Memphis and
Marshall before closing out against Tulane. There's no reason ECU
should expect anything less than three more wins to close out.
Oct. 20
NC State 34 ... East Carolina 20
NC State got up 21-0 on two Daniel Evans touchdown passes and
a blocked punt return for a score from J.C. Neal, and then the
Pirate roared back with a 20-point run starting with a one-yard
Chris Johnson touchdown run, and an 18-yard Jamar Bryant scoring
catch with 23 seconds to play in the first half. NC State fumbled
the ensuing kickoff, and the Pirates got a 47-yard Ben Hartman field
goal with no time left on the clock. NC State withstood the storm
and scored the final 13 points of the game highlighted by a 15-yard
Jamelle Eugene scoring grab.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
It's not like ECU didn't have its
chances to come back and beat NC State. It got within one, and then
couldn't seem to get back on track in the second half to get over
the hump. After a thrilling win over UTEP, this was going to be the
statement week when it beat a lousy Wolfpack team as part of a big
run. It didn't happen, mainly because the secondary didn't show up
yet again. Fortunately, UAB, Memphis, Marshall and Tulane close
things out. Anything less than 8-4 will have to be seen as a
Oct. 13
East Carolina 45 ... UTEP 42 OT
UTEP got a 45--yard field goal from Jose Martinez in overtime,
but ECU QB Rob Kass plunged in for a one-yard score to pull off a
wild win. The Miners appeared to have the game won, as Marcus Thomas
tore off a 31-yard touchdown run with 34 seconds to play, but the
Pirates put it into overtime on a 34-yard Juwon Crowell touchdown
catch with no time left on the clock. The two teams traded scores
throughout, with Thomas starting things off with a 42-yard scoring
catch, and ECU taking an early lead with a 50-yard Van Eskridge
fumble recovery for a score. In the third quarter, ECU came up with
a few haymakers, getting a 57-yard Dwayne Harris touchdown run and
an 80-yard Jamar Bryant touchdown catch to go up ten. But UTEP would
respond with the third of Martinez's four field goals and a 17-yard
Jeff Moturi touchdown grab early in the fourth before the fireworks
at the end. UTEP cranked out 589 yards of total offense, while ECU
came up with 507.

In a losing
cause, UTEP QB Trevor Vittatoe completed 38 of 55 passes for 409

Rushing: Marcus Thomas, 22-103, 1 TD. Receiving: Jeff
Moturi, 12-113, 1 TD
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
If this wasn't a charmed season before,
it is now. With the way Rob Kass led the team to a late touchdown to
force overtime against UTEP, and with the scoring run to win it,
this is a hot team that has control of the Conference USA race with
all the lightweights ahead. Now the tough part is over. If ECU is as
good as it's been playing, at least offensively, it should be able
to roll through UAB, Memphis, Marshall and Tulane without breathing
hard. However, getting more from the secondary would be nice.
Oct. 6
East Carolina 52 ... UCF 38
East Carolina cranked out a 28-point second half run with two
of Rob Kass's three touchdown passes, Chris Johnson's fourth
touchdown of the day, and a six-yard Kass run. UCF appeared to be on
its way to a big day when Curtis Francis took the opening kickoff 93
yards for a touchdown, and the offense rolled, outgaining ECU 495
yards to 370, but it turned the ball over five times to keep the
Pirates rolling. The Pirate returned the favor, with Johnson taking
the opening kickoff of the second half for a score as part of a 38-3
run that was finally halted with a three-yard Kyle Israel touchdown
Player of the game:
East Carolina RB Chris Johnson ran for 89 yards and two touchdowns
on 23 carries, caught five passes for 89 yards and another score,
and handled four kickoffs for 194 yards and a touchdown.

Rushing: Chris Johnson, 23-89, 2 TDs. Receiving: Chris
Johnson, 5-89, 1 TD
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
While the ECU defense continues to have
major problems, it was able to force five UCF turnovers, and the
offense took advantage of every shot in the great second half run to
pull away and win in a walk. Rob Kass got hot, Chris Johnson was
unstoppable in all phases, and now, ECU is in a great spot to be in
the Conference USA title hunt. Now comes the big showdown, needing
to beat UTEP in El Paso to firmly establish itself as the league's
main player.
Sept. 29
East Carolina 37 ... Houston 35
Down two, Houston had two late chances to win, but T.J.
Lawrence missed a 37-yard field goal with just under two minutes to
play, and missed from 38 with three seconds left. ECU got a huge day
from Chris Johnson, who ran for a 14-yard touchdown in the second
quarter and a 43-yard dash in the third. Houston stayed in it with
the home run, starting off the scoring with a 33-yard Donnie Avery
touchdown catch, his first of two touchdown grabs, and answering a
late ECU field goal with a 100-yard Donnie Avery kickoff return for
a score. ECU's C.J. Wilson came up with 2.5 sacks, and Quentin
Cotton made 14 tackles and recovered a fumble.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
ECU's defense struggled with the Houston
speed, the passing game didn't do much, with the quarterbacks
combining to hit 11 of 26 passes, but a win is a win. Now the
Pirates are in the Conference USA race with two of the big boys,
Southern Miss and Houston, off the schedule. Now comes the real test
against UCF. To pull this off, more will be needed out of the
passing game, and the run defense will have to stiffen up and not
allow the big home-run.
Sept. 22
West Virginia 48 ... East Carolina 7
West Virginia rolled to 48 straight points before ECU finally
got on the board with a two-yard Chris Johnson touchdown run in the
final minute. Pat White ran for a 13-yard score and threw a 12-yard
touchdown pass to Darius Reynaud, and Steve Slaton ran for a
one-yard score, on the way to a 27-0 halftime lead. White and
Reynaud hooked up again in the third quarter to a 14-yard touchdown,
and then White ran for a four-yard score. East Carolina managed just
160 yards of total offense.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... With a
still-young, developing team, there will be days when nothing works.
Against West Virginia, nothing worked, especially on offense. While
that was expected, the problem was the play of the defensive line,
that was supposed to be one of the team's strengths, and it didn't
come through early to slow down, or dictate the action, against the
Mountaineer offense. The hope has to be for QB Pat Pinkney to find
something out of this game to use as a learning experience for
Conference USA play ahead.
Sept. 15
Southern Miss 28 ... East Carolina
Jeremy Young ran for
two touchdowns from one yard out in the fourth quarter, with the
second one coming with 32 seconds to play, to give Southern Miss the
tough road win. The Golden Eagles jumped out to a 14-0 halftime lead
on a 28-yard touchdown catch from Shaun Nelson and a two-yard Damion
Fletcher run, but East Carolina adjusted and controlled the third
quarter with 21 points. Pat Pinkney threw two touchdown passes and
Dominique Lindsay ran for a one-yard score, but the Southern Miss
defense stiffened in the fourth quarter.
Player of the game: Southern Miss QB Jeremy Young completed
18 of 28 passes for 237 yards and a touchdown with an interception,
and ran 11 times for 20 yards and two scores.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... ECU
stood toe-to-toe with Southern Miss in a tough game, but the lost
because the offense couldn't crank out long drives in the fourth
quarter. The defense didn't appear to be gassed, but the line
started to get beaten on just enough for USM to keep moving the
ball. The running game has to start doing more. QB Pat Pinkney is
growing into the type of playmaker to revolve the offense around,
but the attack is becoming too one-dimensional, and that won't work
against West Virginia next week.
Sept. 8
East Carolina 34 ... North Carolina
ECU PK Ben Hartman missed three field goals, but he nailed a
39-yard shot with no time left on the clock to beat North Carolina.
The two teams were in a shootout for three quarters, with Patrick
Pinkney throwing three touchdown passes for East Carolina and UNC
getting a huge day from Brandon Tate, but Hartman's field goal were
the only points in the fourth. Pinkney connected with Chris Johnson
on touchdown passes from 78 and 24 yards out, and Johnson added a
four-yard touchdown run, while Tate caught touchdown passes from 39
and 51 yards and returned a punt 58 yards for a score.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
And ECU has a
quarterback. Any concerns about the team's quarterback controversy
have to be eased after a brilliant day from Patrick Pinkney, who not
only showed a deep arm, but had great mobility to buy time and make
things happen. Chris Johnson didn't run well, but he was explosive
and productive as a receiver. The offensive line isn't in place to
pound the ball, and there will be more shootouts to come, so it'll
be up to Pinkney for the team's immediate future. The offense will
sink or swim with him.

Virginia Tech 17 ... East Carolina 7
In one of the most emotionally charged games in college
football history, Virginia Tech needed a while before finally putting East
Carolina away. Victor Harris picked off a pass for a touchdown late in the first
half for a 10-7 Hokie lead, and Sam Wheeler provided the breathing room with a
21-yard touchdown catch. East Carolina managed a two-yard Chris Johnson
touchdown run in the first half for its only points.

Rushing: Branden Ore, 23-70 Receiving: Sam Wheeler, 7-81, 1 TD
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... ECU got
the early pick of Virginia Tech's Sean Glennon, and the crowd was instantly
taken out of the emotional game. Give the Pirates credit for maintaining their
cool, for the most part, despite being the team America most wanted to see lose
this week, and now that this is over, they can get on to the rest of the year.
The offense might have struggled, but everyone will have problems against the
Hokie D. The ECU defensive line was fantastic and is going to be the difference
in at least three games this year.
Sept. 1 – at Virginia Tech
Offense: Can Tech win a national title with a mediocre
offense? It was 99th in the nation in total offense, but it did a great
job of taking advantage of all the breaks generated by the defense.
Eight starters return, led by ACC Player of the Year candidate Branden
Ore at running back, but he needs the line to be healthy for a full
season, and better. The passing game has good pieces, but it has to be
far more consistent considering there are four talented senior receivers
returning. Quarterback Sean Glennon had a good off-season, and now it
has to translate into better production.
Defense: For two years in a row, Tech has led the nation in total
defense, and last season, was number one in scoring defense allowing 11
points per game. There's no reason the D can't be even better with eight
starters returning led by the 1-2 linebacking punch of Vince Hall and
Xavier Adibi. Corner Brandon Flowers is emerging as one of the best in
the nation, "Macho" Harris is a good defender on the other side, and the
line is loaded with size, quickness, depth and experience. As good as
things were, and will be, it's not like the D played a who's who of
offensive machines, so the overall numbers might be a tad bit overrated,
but make no mistake about it; this is a special defense.
Sept. 8 - North Carolina
Offense: The offense only cranked out 293 yards and 18 points per
game with fits of wild inconsistency. Expect a bit more of the same with
a young team still trying to figure out who the starters are going to
be, but the overall production should be better. Step one is to
determine who the quarterback will be to handle the passing game that'll
run three and four wide sets. T.J. Yates was the star of spring ball,
but he'll have to hold off star freshman Mike Paulus. There are plenty
of good, inexperienced running backs to work with, and Hakeem Nicks is a
potential star number one receiver. However, there aren't any
certainties in the depth chart quite yet. The line will be serviceable,
but nothing special.
Defense: It might take a year to turn things around after a
disastrous 2006, but the young talent is there to get really, really
excited. The defensive line has a slew of great prospects to work with,
while the back seven has athleticism and quickness by design with a
smallish linebacking corps. The return of Trimaine Goddard at safety
will be a big help for the secondary, while the hopeful emergence of
more pass rushing help for end Hilee Taylor should help the coaching
staff implement it's attacking, aggressive style.
Sept. 15 - Southern Miss
Offense: While it's become fashionable for programs across the
country to switch to some fancy derivative of the spread offense,
Southern Miss is content to pound the ball on the ground, control the
clock and let its defense win games. Sure, the Eagles prefer balance,
but in Hattiesburg, the run continues to set up the pass. Last year's
league-leading rusher, sophomore Damion Fletcher, is back for an encore,
and this time, he brought friends. Southern Miss is deep in the
backfield, which will take pressure off versatile, yet erratic, senior
quarterback Jeremy Young. His favorite target will again be tight end
Shawn Nelson, a future pro with All-America potential. For a change,
there are restless moments about an offensive line that's replacing
three starters, two of which were First Team All-Conference USA in 2006.
Defense: The "Nasty Bunch" defense that's become the trademark of
Southern Miss football under Jeff Bower should be one of the nation's
top ranked units in 2007. It's fast and experienced, and if Bower gets
his way, about to become as physical as his vintage teams of the late
1990s. The Eagles return nine starters, including the entire front
seven and five players that earned all-Conference USA recognition in
2006. Good luck moving the ball on this veteran group. If there's a
weak link on defense it's in the secondary, where two new starting
corners will be broken in. One way to help rookies Eddie Willingham and
Michael McGee will be to get more pressure on the quarterback than last
year, when USM was No. 81 in the country in sacks.
Sept. 22 – at West Virginia
Offense: Unlike most schools that run the spread offense,
West Virginia aims to open lanes for its prolific ground game, rarely
putting the ball in the air more than 20 times a game. The Mountaineers
want the ball in the hands of its two junior Heisman candidates,
quarterback Patrick White and running back Steve Slaton. Along with
receiver Darius Reynaud, they form the fastest offensive trio in
America, and are threats for six with even a hint of daylight. White is
an underrated passer that rarely misses his target, but needs more help
from a receiving corps that's suspect after Reynaud. Few schools
rebuild on the offensive line better than West Virginia, but how will
the unit react without its long-time quarterback Dan Mozes and long-time
coach Rick Trickett?
Defense: Lost in all the yards the Mountaineer offense gained in
2006 was all the yards the defense allowed. West Virginia allowed 35 or
more points three times last fall and was torched through the air
repeatedly over the second half of the year. Worse, this once
relentless defense had trouble getting to the quarterback and looked a
step slow. Rich Rodriguez is banking on a few tweaks to the back eight
and an influx of faster players as the solutions in the team's 3-3-5
stack formation. Led by playmaking senior safety Eric Wicks, the
secondary has a glut of really talented athletes that need to gel into a
cohesive unit.
Sept. 29 – at Houston
The graduation of four-year starting quarterback Kevin Kolb signals a new era in
Houston, but it doesn't mean the Cougars will be inept on offense in 2007.
There's too much explosiveness and veteran leadership for that to happen. Last
year's backup, sophomore Blake Joseph, is expected to get the nod at
quarterback. He's got a huge arm and about as much fear as he does experience.
Surrounding Joseph will be a half-dozen players that earned all-league honors
last year, headed by senior running back Anthony Alridge, one of the nation's
fastest players.
Defense: Defensive coordinator Alan Weddell's goal is to bring pressure
from every angle and invent ways to get as much speed as possible on the field.
With that in mind, he'll be installing some elements of a 4-2-5 package in 2007
to periodically get an athletic rover into the mix. The personnel is deep and
reliable, especially with a front seven that includes dynamic junior end Phillip
Hunt and a couple of all-league linebackers in junior Cody Lubojasky and senior
Trent Allen. If senior safety Rocky Schwartz is all the way back from knee
surgery and the corners hold up, the pieces are in place for this to be
Conference USA's stingiest defense.
Oct. 6 - UCF
Offense: Quarterback Steven Moffett and premier receiver Mike Walker have
graduated, so logic dictates the Knights will lean on junior Kevin Smith for a
while. He's as good as any back in the league when he's healthy, and has the
luxury of four starting linemen returning. Don't expect any drop-off from
Moffett to senior Kyle Israel. In fact, the veteran of 16 games and five starts
was so sharp down the stretch in 2006, some around the program feel he could be
even better running the pro-style offense if a couple of the young receivers
Defense: Nothing typified UCF's collapse in 2006 more than the shoddy
play of the defense, which finished 106th nationally and allowed
almost 30 points a game. The secondary was a particular mess, prompting George
O'Leary to open up the competition at every spot, despite the return of four
starters. The coach had a chance to take the wrappers off some of his young
kids late last year, which will benefit players, such as tackles Torrell Johnson
and Travis Timmons and end Jared Kirksey, this season. More than anything else,
the Knights are looking to improve their team speed after looking a step slow
throughout the 2006 season.
Oct. 13 – at UTEP
Offense: The offense continued to be one-sided finishing fifth in the
nation in passing and 116th in rushing, and now things will make a shift back
the other way, although not necessarily for the positive. A battle for the
quarterback job will continue until the fall, but the running game should be set
with Marcus Thomas ready to break out as on of Conference USA's best backs.
However, he needs room to move behind a line that has to be night-and-day better
than last year when it struggled to pound away.
Defense: The Miners melted down over the second half of
last season and needs to be far more productive with nine starters returning.
Don't expect miracles, but unlike previous years, the D should be better as the
season goes on. The defense was miserable last season despite getting a
consistent pass rush from the front seven. Now the whole line needs to find
replacements while the linebacking corps has to hope for Jeremy Jones to be
healthy after a knee injury. The secondary should be a strength after a rough
year with safeties Quintin Demps and Braxton Amy potential all-stars, while Josh
Ferguson is a solid corner.
Oct. 20 - NC State
Offense: This won't be a bombs away attack under Dana Bible, but
it could be with a big, fast, experienced receiving corps that should be able to
spread the field. The trio of running backs, Toney Baker, Andre Brown and
Jamelle Eugene, should be a major plus, but the line has to be far better and
needs to replace the starting tackles. It'll be a three-man race for the
starting quarterback job between Daniel Evans, Nebraska transfer Harrison Beck,
and Justin Burke, with the one of them needing to be able to move the offense
consistently, something that wasn't done this spring. This will be a running
offense that will eventually grow into a 50/50 balance.
Defense: This will be a solid defense, but it won't be spectacular. It
could be fantastic in 2008 when all the promising young prospects are ready to
shine, but for now, this will be a good, sound D that should be far more
consistent than last year. Demario Pressley and Martrel Brown lead a strong line
that should be the strength, while three senior linebackers will keep the
mistakes to a minimum. The secondary has to come up with more big plays after
helping the Pack pick off just seven passes.
Oct. 27 - UAB
Offense: From the staff and the system to the personnel, the offense will
be getting a complete facelift in 2007. Nothing will look the same which isn't
such a bad thing considering how poorly the unit executed last season. New
coordinator Kim Helton is installing a pro-style attack that sprinkles in some
no-huddle and option calls, but realizes he'll have to tailor the first-year
playbook to the talent he inherits. All eyes in August will be on the
continuing quarterback battle between senior Sam Hunt and sophomore Joseph Webb,
a potential savior once he gets up to speed. Whether or not the offense climbs
out of the Conference USA cellar will depend heavily on the maturation of a
rebuilt line that's replacing four senior starters.
Defense: While the back seven of the defense figures to be a strength in
2007, you might not know it unless the defensive line can effectively replace
three key starters from last year. Senior end Brandon Jeffries will be
productive, but after him, UAB is feverishly searching for answers to prevent
opposing passers from having all day to throw. Junior college transfer Antonio
Forbes is being counted on to deliver right out of the gate at tackle. The
linebackers have a budding star in junior Joe Henderson and senior free safety
Will Dunbar is one of just a handful of Blazer defenders with all-league
Nov. 3 – at Memphis
Offense: The offense had its moments, but it was consistently mediocre
and not nearly explosive enough. The ground game struggled behind a bad
offensive line, and now the hope fill be for Joseph Doss to get more room behind
a more experienced front five. The passing attack should shine, led by veteran
quarterback Martin Hankins and the usual array of tall, athletic Tiger
receivers. Duke Calhoun is a rising star touchdown maker, while Earnest Williams
is a solid target to keep the chains moving.
Defense: A disaster last year, especially against the pass and at getting
into the backfield, the defense is undergoing an almost complete overhaul with
several newcomers taking over for established veterans. The 4-3 needs to start
making more big plays behind the line, and the hope will be for a steady
rotation of players to keep everyone fresh and be more productive. The key will
be the play of corners LaKeitharun Ford and Michael Grandberry, who need to beef
up a secondary that allowed 231 yards per game and finished 116th in the nation
in pass efficiency defense.
Nov. 10 – at Marshall
Not since Byron Leftwich graduated has Marshall been Marshall on offense. That
should begin to change this fall provided erratic senior quarterback Bernard
Morris can make the most of a receiving corps that's brimming with young
game-breakers. All-conference back Ahmad Bradshaw, a 1,500-yard rusher in 2006,
left early for the NFL, leaving Chubb Small to shoulder the load. If he can't
handle the promotion, look for one of three blue-chip freshmen to rise up and
accept an expanded role. While the offensive line has pending issues at tackle,
Doug Legursky is a beast at center that could parlay big efforts early versus
Miami and West Virginia into post-season awards.
Defense: Disgusted with the play of last year's defense, head coach Mark
Snyder changed course, hiring veteran Steve Dunlap as the coordinator. While
last year's team sat back, and often paid for the conservative approach, the
2007 edition will attack wherever and whenever it makes sense. The chief
attacker will be junior end Albert McClellan, a sack machine that'll be in the
mix for just about every individual award given to defensive players. At
linebacker, junior Josh Johnson is good enough to consider early entry into the
2008 NFL Draft once the season concludes. Dunlap's biggest concerns in his
first season on the job surround a pedestrian group of tackles and a beatable
secondary that allowed way too many long gainers last season.
Nov. 24 - Tulane
Offense: New head coach Bob Toledo would like to get vertical get the
passing game moving, but it's not going to happen at the expense of the ground
attack. With a good back in Matt Forte to work with, the Green Wave will try to
run the ball to create some semblance of balance, but the offensive line might
not be in place to do it. Scott Elliott is the odds-on favorite to win the
starting quarterback job in a four-man race, and he has some decent young
receivers to work with.
Defense: Tulane hasn't played consistent defense in a few years, and it
needs to count on experience, especially up front, to change things around.
Eight starters return led by senior tackles Frank Morton and Avery Williams. The
secondary needs to be far better after allowing over 250 passing yards a game,
but that could be a bit of an issue with two new starting corners being broken
in. The new coaching staff will use a variety of formations and schemes to try
to get more production, and while the overall defense should be better, there
will still be times when it'll get bombed on.

51 year old man | Sagle, ID, USA | Seeking women 34-54 within 30 miles of Garden Grove, CA
I would like to meet an attractive, intelligent, easy going woman to share some of life's simple pleasures.
I am an easy going guy who likes the simple pleasures of life. Health and fitness are a big part of who I am, and I would connect with someone who shared that same lifestyle. I want to be clear that I am looking to meet the one woman who completes me. I am not interested in corresponding with 20 different women. If I find her on here, I will stop looking. I am a country boy as opposed to the big city type. If you remember the tv show Green Acres, I am Oliver Douglas. I prefer the chores over the stores, and fresh air over times square. While I may be a country boy at heart, I still enjoy a day , night, or weekend in the big city. I just don't want to lay my head there every night. I am unlike most men that you have met. I am a masculine looking and acting man, but I am very sensitive, compassionate, and gentle. I used to be a foster home for orphaned puppies, and I had the experience of raising two from 3 days old until I found them a home at 8 weeks. It was one of the things that I won't ever forget. I get choked up watching some commercials, and I cry watching movies if I'm alone. I have my image to consider when I'm with a woman. In fact, I got through "The Notebook" the first time with just a lump in my throat and watery eyes because I was with a woman. The next time I saw it alone at home, I cried like a baby. Let's keep that between us though, ok? If your gut says we might be a match, don't wait for me to find you. Say hello or send one of those winks. I think there may be as many nigerians with profiles on here as Americans.
Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Volunteering
Aerobics, Baseball, Basketball, Hockey, Weights / Machines
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Dogs
For the record, I enjoy fishing but not hunting. I have nothing against those who hunt, I just couldn't ever kill anything, including the fish I catch. They are all released.
Middle of the Road
I am not much of a tv watcher, but I am addicted to Seinfeld. I have seen every episode more than once. I do enjoy going to hockey games. I waited a very long time to see the L.A Kings win the stanley cup.
I like the typical stuff like dinner at a nice restaurant, or a movie. But I really like to be on the lake, any lake. I also like seeing America by car. I like to pick a destination and head that way, but stop along the way.
I don't read much, but the last thing I read was the autobiography of Wayne Gretzky.

Could it be curtains for Kengeter at UBS?
It is a tribute to the recovery at UBS under Oswald Grübel over the past few years that, financially at least, it may be able to take the $2bn rogue trading loss in its stride. But whether UBS Investment Bank and its chief executive Carsten Kengeter can do the same is less clear.

Pet peeves are unnecessary stress
My friends would describe me as funny, outgoing, loyal, truthful, genuine and original. I love going out and trying new things whether it be food or adventures. I will try just about anything once. Laughing and making others laugh is probably my favorite thing to do. I don't watch much TV these days but movies or TV shows that I enjoy are Step Brothers, Its Always Sunny and I love The Walking Dead. I am very down to earth but can get a little competitive. Warning! You better bring it if we go bowling! I love to workout and challenge myself. I've been doing crossfit for about 6 months now and attend the gym 4 or 5 days a week. Crossfit it is definitely my passion! Along with working out I eat very healthy so someone that can keep up and share the same eating habits would be ideal. I play on an adult coed softball team. We all get together and plan big outings like zip lining and the Spartan Race. I live in the city now but have to admit that I'm a good ol country girl at heart. I do enjoy the bars but I'm just as happy sitting around a fire with some a few friends. I love country music but I listen to everything depending on my mood. Doing nice things for people just because brings me great pleasure. What I would look for in a relationship is someone who is not afraid to be themselves, open minded, ambitious, humorous, honesty is a MUST, has a passion for health and fitness and enjoys going out but can appreciate a night of Netflix and sweat pants.

Heads up for food poisoning
I've just come back from Lamma island (18/09/2011) and I have had some symptoms of food poisoning. Although it's too early to be sure which kind of food poisoning I have, I suspect it happened in Tai Yuen Seafood Restaurant, where I had only a small crab, the only sea food I had in many days. The restaurant was full of locals and the fish was displayed and looked great, I might have been unlucky, but there might be some problems in the water where they caught the crabs.
power plant
It is alomst all perfect in Lamma, except those soaring views of huge power plant near Yung Shue Wan from many angles. Therefore I'd say you preferably start your island trail in Yung Shue Wan into Sok Kwu Wan direction rather than vice versa - because if you walk this direction you'll have the view of plant mostly behind your back once you have surpassed it. But you need to think about this before you take ferry from Central, because it depends which one you take.
Other than that, after strong rains you're not advised to swim in the sea for three days at Hung Shing Yeh beach (that nice, sandy one indeed) because water becomes more polluted. Maybe from that plant.
Anyways, it's just so huge and distincitve and... contrasty... that construction here that it's worth to be warned in advance. Anyways, focus on nice things on Lamma although you cannot ignore some aspects.

Inside the Market, our newly enhanced blog on the markets and investing, will now give you the opportunity every week in a live chat to ask questions of, and challenge, leading investment gurus.
Tuesday at 1 p.m. (ET), economist Robert Haugen joins us. He's a leading proponent of the case that stock markets are inherently inefficient and one of the first to identify and publish research on the Low Volatility Anomaly, showing that low risk stocks outperform risky stocks over time.
Dr. Haugen is the author of The New Finance and The Inefficient Stock Market, among several other books. In his 30-year academic career, he held endowed chairs at The University of Wisconsin at Madison, The University of Illinois at Champagne-Urbana and The University of California, Irvine.
Haugen's latest research, "Low Risk Stocks Outperform within All Observable Markets of the World," co-authored with Nardin Baker, Chief Strategist of Global Alpha, Guggenheim Partners Asset Management, proves that from 1990 – 2011, low risk stocks produced higher returns than high risk stocks in every market in the world.
We look forward to a spirited discussion.

Hip pain can make it hard to walk, go up and down stairs, squat,
or sleep on the side that hurts. A clicking or snapping feeling or sound around
your hip joint (snapping hip) may bother you or cause you to worry.
But if your hip is not painful, in many cases the click or snap is nothing to
worry about. Home treatment may be all that is needed for minor hip
To better understand hip problems, it may be helpful to
know how the
hip works. It is the largest ball-and-socket joint in
the body. The thighbone (femur) fits tightly into a cup-shaped socket
(acetabulum) in the pelvis. The hip joint is tighter and more stable than the
shoulder joint but it does not move as freely. The hip joint is held together
by muscles in the buttock, groin, and spine; tendons; ligaments; and a joint
capsule. Several fluid-filled sacs (bursae) cushion and lubricate the hip joint
and let the tendons and muscles glide and move smoothly. The largest nerve in
the body (sciatic nerve) passes through the pelvis into the leg.
Hip problems may develop from overuse,
bone changes with age, tumors, infection, changes in the blood supply, or a
problem that was present from birth (congenital). Oddly enough, a person who
has a hip problem often feels pain in the knee or thigh instead of the hip. The type of hip pain you have may help your
doctor determine the cause of your pain.
Pelvic, groin, thigh, or knee pain (referred pain) may be
present along with a sore, painful, or tender hip. Hip pain can have many
Treatment for a hip problem depends on the location,
type, and severity of the problem, as well as your age, general health, and
activities (such as work, sports, hobbies). Treatment may include first aid
measures; application of a brace, cast, harness, or traction; physical therapy;
medicines; or surgery.
Check your symptoms to
decide if and when you should see a doctor.

Richard Horwell, QC, said any suggestion the publicist abused young women in the 1970s and 1980s would have spread "at the speed of electricity", as he delivered his closing speech at London's Southwark Crown Court.
Clifford, 71, is standing trial accused of 11 counts of indecent assault against seven girls and women - all of which he denies.
Mr Horwell said: "Men do not suddenly change from being caring gentlemen to sexual predatory monsters and then back again."
Mr Horwell told the jury Clifford had no previous convictions, cautions, reprimands or warnings.
"How does that fit with the sexual predator the prosecution say he is?" he said.
"Would not this sexual predator have been caught out once or twice in his life?
"If a man has a perverted sexual drive, if he is a paedophile, because that is what is alleged, that tendency is going to be with him throughout his life."
Mr Horwell said character witnesses for Clifford had spoken of an honest man with integrity and who gave his time and energy to charity work.
"Not manufactured publicity in Hello! magazine but true care and understanding," he said.
"He was employed in the music industry in the early 1960s. If he found young girls attractive, if he was looking for young woman, isn't Top Of The Pops the place he would have been?"
Mr Horwell told the jury: "There is an enormous amount of pressure on the prosecution in this case. There is none on you.
"A careful assessment of the evidence can only result in one conclusion and that is Mr Clifford is not guilty on each of these counts."
Clifford, from Hersham in Surrey, listened from the dock with the aid of a hearing loop.
His daughter Louise, who has given evidence in the trial, sat in the public gallery.
The trial was adjourned until tomorrow.
