Week 13 Top Team Notes & Thoughts
Rank 9-17 | Rank 18-25 & Ohio State
No. 1 Notre Dame (12-0)
Last week: Notre Dame 22, at USC 13
Notes: Ireland, Norman, Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles, and now Miami. The Irish are well-travelled on their way to the BCS championship. … First and foremost, Notre Dame didn't screw up. The formula isn't all that hard. Run the ball with power, get to the quarterback, and don't give the ball away. There were seven penalties, but there weren't any turnovers and no big mistakes. … USC is soft, and the Irish took advantage. Theo Riddick ran with a purpose, breaking tackles and not easily going down on the way to 146 hard yards with a score. … Manti Te'o didn't do enough to make the Heisman his with just five tackles, but everyone will remember his key pick and toughness on the key goal line stand. … Louis Nix was a force on the nose. USC couldn't get anything going on the inside, and he helped blow up the quarterback sneak attempts.
No. 2 Alabama (11-1)
Last week: at Alabama 49, Auburn 0
Notes: 49-0 win in the Iron Bowl. 11-1. A shot at the national title with a win in the SEC championship. Gene Chizik got fired. The Tide have had a relatively successful weekend. … The one down side was the loss of WR Kenny Bell with a broken leg. There are still weapons, but he was a key part of the offensive puzzle. … Bama is leading the nation in passing efficiency again. A.J. McCarron completed 15-of-21 passes for 216 yards and four scores. … This was a dominant effort on every level. Auburn didn't have any room to breathe, while the Tide offense looked like it was going through a light scrimmage. It wasn't working hard on the way to a 42-0 halftime lead. … Against Georgia, generating a pass rush on Aaron Murray is a must, or else the secondary will get picked apart like Zach Mettenberger and Johnny Manziel were able to do.
No. 3 Georgia (11-1)
Last week: at Georgia 42, Georgia Tech 10
Notes: So much for the Dawgs being caught looking ahead to the SEC championship. They came out roaring from the start and put the game away immediately, not letting the Yellow Jackets breathe early. … Georgia Tech ran without a problem, but it didn't matter. After getting up early, the Georgia defense was allowed to bend without breaking. … Alec Ogletree came up with 15 tackles, while Bacarri Rambo had a huge game with eight tackles, two forced fumbles, a pick and a fumble recovery. … Todd Gurley averaged 8.1 yards per run, and Keith Marshall ran for 9.4 yards per try. The offensive line gave the backs plenty of room to move, and they dominated early on. … Aaron Murray completed 14-of-17 passes for 215 yards and two scores. … On a six game winning streak with four straight blowouts since the win over Florida, the team is peaking at just the right time for the showdown against Alabama. Win that, and it's on to the BCS championship.
No. 4 Florida (11-1 )
Last week: Florida 37, at Florida State 26
Notes: The Gators didn't panic. The momentum had completely shifted the other way with a wild swing, but the offense was slow and steady, able to pound away and take the game back by controlling the clock. The O had the ball for over 36 minutes thanks to run after run, with 14 of the 21 first downs coming on the ground. Mike Gillislee ran 24 times for 140 yards and two scores. … Jeff Driskel didn't do anything big, but he didn't screw up like E.J. Manuel did, completing 15-of-23 passes for 147 yards and a score. … Matt Elam continued to show why he deserves to be an All-American with seven tackles and a pick. He was all over the field. … They did it. They're not going to the BCS championship, but at 11-1 they're going to be in the BCS somewhere, most likely the Sugar Bowl.
No. 5 Oregon (11-1)
Last week: Oregon 48, at Oregon State 24
Notes: It might have taken a little while to get the motor humming, only up 20-17 late in the third, but then Oregon became Oregon again. The takeaways started to come from the defense, and the offense took advantage of the momentum with a breathtaking 28 straight points. …. De'Anthony Thomas has GOT to get the ball in his hands more. He ran 17 times for 122 yards and three scores. Kenjon Barner got back on track with 198 yards and two scores on 28 carries. … The Ducks didn't get the breaks they needed to get to the Pac-12 championship – UCLA didn't do its part in the loss to Stanford – but at 11-1 with the only defeat coming in overtime, they're destined for the BCS, likely the Fiesta Bowl.
No. 6 Kansas State (10-1)
Last week: Didn't Play This Week, Texas Up Next
Notes: The Wildcats have had two weeks off to wonder about what might have been. All they needed to do was beat a mediocre Baylor team, and they would've been playing Texas for a shot at the national title. However, a win over the Longhorns, a Big 12 title and the Fiesta Bowl are hardly consolation prizes. … The Wildcats are coming into the game No. 1 in the nation in punt and kickoff returns. Texas is fourth in the nation in punting. … The time off should make all the difference. The team played like it was running in sand against Baylor, and it looked like it could use a rest. Collin Klein, who was coming off a few rough outings and a few bangs and bruises, should be back to his old self against the Longhorns.
No. 7 LSU (10-2)
Last week: LSU 20, at Arkansas 13
Notes: Les Miles might disagree, and it's hard to argue with a 10-2 season, but his team is underachieving. The team that rose up and came within seconds of beating Alabama just isn't playing up to its talent level. Between this game, the close call against Ole Miss last week and the battle against Auburn, it took too much work to put away some bad, bad teams. … The defense is too good to give up 359 passing yards, even if Tyler Wilson has NFL skills. Meanwhile, the offensive front couldn't keep Zach Mettenberger clean and didn't do enough to pave the way for the ground game that averaged 2.3 yards per carry. Arkansas won more than its share of battles. … Where was the pass rush? Sam Montgomery all but disappeared for a D that came up with just one sack and one tackle for loss. … Jarvis Landry might have made a miraculous touchdown catch, but Odell Beckham's 47-yard catch-and-run was almost as important. It took a while, but Mettenberger figured it out.
No. 8 Stanford (10-2)
Last week: Stanford 35, at UCLA 17
Notes: The Cardinal came out roaring. Stanford needed the win, UCLA didn't, and that's how the first half looked. … The lines dominated the Bruins, getting a terrific push for Stepfan Taylor and the running game. Taylor ripped off 142 yards and two scores on just 29 carries, but everyone who got the ball ran well. … The pass rush dominated. The Cardinal didn't let the Bruin offense breathe with seven sacks including two from Chase Thomas. … Did the coaching staff show anything UCLA can use in the rematch? Not really. There wasn't anything out of the ordinary; get to the quarterback, get into the backfield, smash away with the running game. It's what Stanford has been doing all season long.

Customer Reviews of Complete Coverage Video Monitor Set
Decent Monitor but video quality not as good as ot11/3/2010
Upfront, let me say that I have alot of electronics in the house. Multiple networks and wireless devices. However, I did put monitor base and receiver in same room and still had less than good video quality on both monitors. I have seen others with better video quality. Audio quality was much better than video and comprable to other audio products. For the price I would have expected better video quality.

With Favre, nothing's for certain
Originally Published: August 18, 2009By Len Pasquarelli | ESPN.com
Just minutes before he was to sign his 1973 contract with the San Diego Chargers, after a lengthy Hall of Fame stint in Baltimore, the great John Unitas paused, his pen dangling tantalizingly over the document, and turned slightly to then-Chargers owner Eugene Klein.
"Are you sure that you want to do this?" asked the man who defined the quarterback position, before officially signing the contract.
Observing the proceedings that day, legendary San Diego Union-Tribune reporter ...

The story of Tommie "Hot" Nichols is a great one indeed, from his passion for music to his near death experiences. This one of a kind new artist has a superb story yet to be told. Its intriguing to see how he remains so humble and down to earth being that he has been through so much. Growing up born in California, moving to Ohio's murder capital Youngstown, and then to Atlanta GA. and back to what he calls his home the west. He as well as his story, his legend must be heard. With a flow "so retarded" (as he puts it) all you have to do is wait listen and learn!

Sanrio Carnival
FAQ/Walkthrough by ASchultz
Version: 1.0.0 | Updated: 11/29/07 | Printable Version
Sanrio Carnival(NES) FAQ/Walkthrough version 1.0.0 by firstname.lastname@example.com (typo to discourage spam) Please do not reproduce for profit without my consent. You won't be getting much profit anyway, but that's not the point. This took time and effort, and I just wanted to save a memory of an old game and the odd solutions any way I could. Please send me an email referring to me and this guide by name if you'd like to post it on your site. ================================ OUTLINE 1. INTRODUCTION 2. CONTROLS 3. DIFFERENT SUBGAMES 4. CHEATS 5. VERSIONS 6. CREDITS ================================ 1. INTRODUCTION Sanrio Carnival is one of those block drop games that are a lot like Columns, where you drop 1x2 blocks that are combos of 6 possible squares. Line up 3 in a row of any one block, and they vanish. However, it is interesting because it has some quest stages where you need to go for specific combinations or even 4 or 5 in a row. There are chains(1 combo before another) and x- folds(several combos at once.) The NES version has several advantages over the GB version. First, the play field is 7x12 and not 6x8, leaving more room for silly errors. Second, the piece you rotate around is highlighted, letting you concentrate even more on the board below. Third, the controls don't stink, so you can push the piece where you want it more easily. Finally, there are a few more levels, challenges and ideas. There's also a stats meter saying how many of what piece dropped, but that is not a functional improvement. Unfortunately, Sanrio Carnival NES accounts for this relative ease by just making the combo quests too long, even at the later levels when pieces seem to fall immediately. Unless you know good cheats. Then anyone with an ounce of heart feels lousy cheating in a game with Hello Kitty regardless of how unfair or tedious it is. This FAQ focuses on the quest/challenge aspect of the game. The rest of the game is basically--get 3's when you can and set up whatever combos are most convenient. 2. CONTROLS This game wasn't translated by the same folks who translated the GameBoy version, so to get to the puzzles, choose the 3rd-lowest option. Then you can choose between 1 and 6 pretty easily. If you want to choose between 7 and 12, hold down A and B on pad #2 and push A or start on pad #1. That gives you 7- 12. The rest needs no translation. Thanks to odino for translating the screen that showed this! I tend to select the blocks instead of the Sanrio characters, as the Sanrio characters can be confusing to separate. They have obvious differences, but, well, I'm more familiar with colors, and you probably are too. A rotates clockwise, B rotates counterclockwise. The highlighted block is the one you want to use. When a piece hits bottom you have a split-second chance to move it horizontally or rotate it, if physically possible. This is handy on later levels. You also get a pause at the top to adjust a piece where you want. You can push a piece down for extra points and even pause the game and still be able to view it. 3. DIFFERENT SUBGAMES 3-0. SPECIFIC SHAPES The first option in the original menu will get you to try several shapes: ... . . . . . . . . ... . ... . . . . .. .. . . . ... . . . . . . . . .. It is decent practice for the real games. You may need all 5 columns of the 5x6 board to create the ^. Most of the time you'll only need 3. Remember to place the linking block--that makes the triads--lats. In the case of the +, you need a monochrome block. This is a bit nasty as there are 25 possibilities(only 5 colors.) You can make these of any color--strawberries are what pops up when you clear something. ?? For the challenge levels, you get a picture for each one you solve 1+7: Hello Kitty in a roller coaster 2+8: Hello Kitty plus Pokopon the raccoon 3+9: Tabo the boy appears by the planet at the top 4+10: Keroppi the frog appears below the coaster 5+11: Tangyodon the fish appears in the castle turret 3-1. 30 LINES This is very easy as with 6 colors to spread out over 7 rows, you should have plenty of ways to hack through things. You don't need any fancy tricks and, in fact, given a monochrome block and a choice between making a 3- and a 4- with it, you should go for the 3-. The less fancy the better. Always look to the "next" to see 1) that you aren't blocking a triad it could make and 2) if it, with your current piece, could make a triad. The probability you share no colors in common is 5/6*4/6*3/6=5/18=27.8%, so you can usually match 2 colors together, and usually there will be a bunch of different colors at the bottom. You should plan things that way. When possible, create a 2-link so that a 3-link will work. Remember that at least 60% of your blocks should match something, unless you get a combo, and try 1. to keep columns balanced 2. not to place a piece horizontally so it blocks squares below, unless you can easily kick half of it out You'll probably only see horizontals first, and verticals are easy with a monochrome block, but look for diagonals later on. They can help cut down an unbalanced column without having to build up to it. You should also hack at an unbalanced column from the side. 3-2. 50K POINTS This requires you to perform a few tricks, because levels go up at a constant rate, but even something like a 2-fold aaa bbb or a 4- or 5-wide(aaaa or bbbbb) or a simple chain b b aaa b Will get a lot of points. I found the best way to win this was just to have a 2-chain set up and, when you can, place something so it will drop to make the 3 chain if the right things happen. If you can link a few of these together, especially at a later level, you can get several thousand a pop, which works for you. Of course you can play defense if you need to, but you should get comfortable with setting up 2-folds or chains. Chains are actually more lucrative and easier than 2-folds, so try and play for them, while avoiding 4- and 5-folds unless they drop out at you clearly. And if you do get a 4- or 5-fold, try to make it so that it is at the end of a combination i.e. instead of b a v aa a ba aa a Then match the b's later. If you can put a chain before the b's that is even better. The basic chains are: b x v c c bb c b a v aa bb b v ba b a a As above, practice with horizontal/vertical but look for diagonal. The chains that need just one color from a block to work are the best. 3-3. 10 DOUBLES Doubles are tricky as you need the right piece for making something of 2 different colors ie b a v bb aa The solution is to go in for a 1-color double, along the lines of: ? a v aa .a. a.. Since you have 7 columns you can work on each side to drop something in, and this will get done easily enough. Just remember if you get a lot of the same color, don't go for a quick 3. Line it up and get a double. 3-4. 5 5-WIDES In a 6-wide as the GameBoy has, this is nearly impossible. However, with a 7- wide there is a trick where you can proceed with 2 projects at once. b- b- | -b| aa aab- Here we can fit an a or a b in. Then we can proceed to build up whichever 5- wide has faltered. You will want to start out covering the bottom row for the 1st 5-wide but you may have to move up as the level goes on. Also look for the possibility of a diagonal. Remember chains and 4-wides don't help you here. You need space cleared out so columns will get imbalanced, making this a bit tricky. I'd play aggressively to try to get a quick 5-wide on the bottom, and if it doesn't work, just try again. You can always keep re-trying til you get lucky. 3-5. 10 CHAINS Chains are easier than doubles because they can be made with any two colors. There are so many ways to get chains but the simplest involves making a broken triad and using the square that breaks it in another triad. Avoid impulsive triads unless needed to clear space. Also lining up pairs works well as often you can get a chain you didn't see. c . v b b cc b 3-6. TRIPLE AND 50 LINES The 50 lines aren't hard so concentrate on the triple. A good way to set it up is: y v yy yy y y This takes a bit of time to build and you have to waste things, but it's best to sort the triples out early on. They are the hard bits, and you don't want to have to try for them when blocks come down quickly. Another possibility is: y .y .. yy .y. y.. In general, find a good locus--it may be for blocks several squares away--and build around or towards it. Note the locus must be in the middle 3 rows. 3-7. 50 CHAINS See above. You need to be more efficient about not wasting stuff, and you probably need to make a 2-chain or two. Those get you extra bonus lines. b v ac .a bbcc ...a a v ..b ..ca bbacc Try and visualize something. See where pairs are close by and maybe even overlapping. Pause the game to draw it out the first time. Once you get the triple, the lines are easy. 3-8. 10 2-CHAINS See above for how to make a 2-chain. Do so quickly and don't waste a lot of just single triads. Dropping in something from overhead may be useful to start ie ba b c ..aacc This is pretty easy to visualize, and while it takes away area, you have places to dump other blocks. While doing so, keep like colors together so you can dump even more over there. The tough part is being able to create 2 different possible 2-chains at once while still working through stuff. Use diagonals in the UR in the example above for that to start working okay. 3-9. 5 3-CHAINS Again you need to visualize in advance how to do this. This is as good a way as any, though you want to make sure you have at least one diagonal in there. If a horizontal tips off a vertical, you will have no way to continue things. dbc ccb daaa d..b Also, you can start things off with an overhead chain reaction ie b v ba b ..aa etc. This allows you a little more space to create a 3-chain. 3-10. 1 7-FOLD, 100 LINES There's a lot of restriction on how to get a 7-fold. First, you need to have 2 different colors in a block, and they need to be the right ones. Second, you need to have things set up right. You'll have a lot of failures even if you do things right, so here is my suggestion--basically a 4-fold with 1 color and a 3-fold with another. Once you've got this the 100 lines are no problem. b a v b ba bb a. aa b. ..aab ..a.a You have a 1/18 chance your piece will fall at the right time. That's if you get this set up. You have gutters to the side, but you also need to make sure that the a's are in place and the b's come down. Very tricky and you may need to use the side rows to weed out a few quick triads. Leave the empties on the right side. 3-11. 1000000 POINTS See above about efficiency. You will get the most points by constructing chains when it's going fast. So pause a lot then and plan things out. You always have time to move something into place, though your reflexes may wig out every so often, so back up the save state when you do something right. 3-12. LEVEL 99 Not much here other than use your survival instincts, view the next when a piece falls into place to see how to use 2 pieces in a row, and pause the game frequently once you are about to place 1 piece and have a next. This really takes forever, so see the cheats to get around it. 4. CHEATS Cheating what you need to do is pretty easy. 0x220 = level - 1 0x221 = what you have left of what you need to do. 0x61 also gives this info but relies on 0x221. You can adjust this to 15 in level 12 if you are lazy and want to see the ending. 0x222 = stage - 1 0x224-0x226 = your score, where that is tracked 0x261 = what you have left of the other thing you need to do. For instance, in stage 10 you have 1 7fold and 100 lines. Set 221 to 0 and this to 1 to do 2 lines. Cheating the playfield is rather complicated as you have to write out the board twice, but it can be done. The top row is at 0x330, and the bottom is at 0x3e0. Bytes 0-6 and 8-e determine the playfield. 7/f are not used. Byte x must match x+8 for any row, where 0<=x<=6. When I say match, ((Byte x) & 0xf) - 9 = (byte x+8) If you are playing with character blocks, bytes 0-6 will have a high nibble of 1. 1=Hello Kitty 2=Frog, Keroppi 4=Fish, Tangyodon 3=Pokopon, Raccoon 5=Berry 6=Tabo, Kid Otherwise 1=red 2=green 3=blue 4=yellow 5=light blue 6=pink Fortunately this is not as hard to remember as it sounds as you match (letter of alphabet) with (place in alphabet) and you leave the high nibble the same. (0/1)F<>6 (0/1)E<>5 (0/1)D<>4 (0/1)C<>3 (0/1)B<>2 (0/1)A<>1 If you do not adjust both sides of the data, then you get weird blank pieces and spaces all over. You can make x-folds easily by putting a lot of the same colors together. The game checks for matches ANYWHERE after things fall down. End of FAQ Proper ================================ 5. VERSIONS 1.0.0: sent to GameFAQs 11/29/2007, complete 6. CREDITS Thanks to the usual GameFAQs gang, current and emeritus.

Preview: Parra "Same Old Song" @ HVW8 Gallery, Los AngelesJuxtapoz // Wednesday, June 25, 2014

Exhibiting a technically meticulously detailed array of acrylic paintings, Toronto based artist Jacub Gagnon opens his solo show at Thinkspace Gallery in Los Angeles on Saturday June, 21st. He creates these exacting works with minute brushstrokes and layers, creating tensions between the artificial and the natural that reach to realms of the propped, plausible and absurd. Illuminating the undeniably effective visual contrasts with a stark black background, Gagnon stages a beautiful realistic portrayal of characters. The odd, the absurd and the frictions of nature intrigue and attract while showcasing impressive talent.

Closing: Dina Goldstein "Fallen Princesses" @ CHG Circa GalleryJuxtapoz // Friday, June 13, 2014
You have one more day to check out Dina Goldstein's U.S. Debut, a solo exhibition of the pop surrealist photographer's most recently published series of work, "Fallen Princesses" and "In the Dollhouse". Goldstein's own "storyography" conceptual style likely blends the political satire of fellow pop surrealist Ron English and the hyperreal documentary photo technique of Dorothea Lange, creating a contemporary statement unique to Goldstein's experience in the 21st century.

Don't try and lift those. They are heavy.

Galapagos in Brooklyn Presents OPERA GROWS IN BROOKLYN 12/12
Two Brooklyn opera companies, AMERICAN OPERA PROJECTS (AOP) and OPERA ON TAP, will present the third installment of its Opera Grows in Brooklyn series called OGB: Stranger Than Fiction, an evening of three 30-minute opera scenes and songs from composers Raymond Lustig, Matt Schickele, and James Barry - all based on true stories. The show will be held on Saturday, December 12 at 8pm at Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn's DUMBO neighborhood. Tickets are $20 ($15 for students/seniors) at www.galapagosartspace.com.
Opera Grows in Brooklyn is an ongoing collaboration between American Opera Projects, "known for bringing cutting-edge vocal production to the masses," (New York), and Opera on Tap, "...raucous and sublime...un-elitist, imperfect, and fun..." (NY Sun), that presents three 30-minute selections of songs and scenes from contemporary composers in a hip, cabaret-style atmosphere. Audiences have a chance to meet the artists and composers after the performance.
American Opera Projects begins the evening with scenes from the opera-in-development Semmelweis. A biographical cabaret fantasia of Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis who battled the 19th-century European medical establishment and his own personal demons to convince the world he had discovered why a deadly disease was killing mothers at a horrific rate inside the world's greatest hospital. Composer Raymond Lustig combines a tuneful minimalist approach with Hungarian folk music, Viennese waltz, and cabaret theater to bring to life this story that was both a high and low point in the history of medicine. Bass-baritone Matthew Curran (recently seen in AOP workshops for Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead and Stephen Schwartz's Séance on a Wet Afternoon) sings the title role with additional performances by Abigail Fischer (Bronx Opera, Nico Muhly's Mothertongue), Glenn Fleshler ( Spring Awakening,Guys and Dolls), Daisy Press, and PatRick Porter. Charity Wicks music directs, with stage direction by Matt Gray.
A composer and the guitarist of an old-time string band, composer/librettist Matt Schickele (Lion Air, Cities Filled With Lights) uses the talents of both folk and classical musicians to tell the story of an unusual pair, out of place in America's last frontier. His one-act opera Marymere tells the true story of suspected murderer John Sargent and his wealthy eccentric wife Edith trying to make their fortune in turn-of-the-20th-century Wyoming. Baritone Jesse Blumberg (The Grapes of Wrath, world premiere) and mezzo soprano Hai-Ting Chinn (Wooster Group's La Didone) star as the fated couple. Wesley Chinn music directs, with stage direction by Jenn Foster.
Opera on Tap will present excerpts from Sucker, a new opera by composer James Barry that mixes classical and pop music to tell the darkly dramatic and slightly comical true story of Albert Prestridge, an aging, trusting, lonely divorcee, who must endure an engagement party for his ex-wife and best friend that goes from bad to worse. Featuring singers Amberleigh Aller, Sean Miller, Seth Gilman, Amanda Villegas, and Zack Rabin with musical direction by Christopher Berg and stage direction by Kathleen Stakenas.

Fox News' latent Islamophobia manifested itself during two segments criticizing a Wisconsin high school for asking history students to write about Muslim Americans based on materials covered in class.
On April 2, according to emails initially obtained by right-wing talk radio host Vicki McKenna, world history students at Union Grove High School were asked to write a short essay about daily life for Muslims living in the United States. Students were asked to write five paragraphs in which they "pretend" to be Muslim and briefly outline their daily routine along with any potential "struggles" they might face.
Fox News expressed its concern about the assignment during two segments on the April 15 edition of Fox & Friends, in which co-hosts Steve Doocy, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and Brian Kilmeade wondered if it was appropriate for students to learn about Islam -- the world's second-largest religion -- in a world history class. At first, Doocy wondered if students wrote about "what Sharia law is," and how they were graded if they did, while Hasselbeck worried that students might not being learning enough about Christianity:
Doocy reiterated his alleged concerns about Sharia law during a later segment, in which he hyped common Islamophobic tropes about the religion being violent and intolerant:
DOOCY: I wonder if they actually, if they did study the religion in this world history class, if they wrote down things like, "If I criticize any part of the Quran, they will kill me," or, "If Muslims marry non-Muslims, they will be put to death," or, "If I'm caught stealing, they'll amputate my right hand." I wonder if they put that kind of stuff in, because that's all part of Sharia law.
Fox has a long history of stoking Islamophobia and worrying about the supposed looming threat of Sharia law, recently attacking a school for allowing a student to recite the Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic.
The conservative Washington Times published a series of bizarre conspiracy theories and claims about the Common Core State Standards, alleging that the educational standards amount to "Islamic infiltration of America."
On April 7, The Washington Times published a piece by columnist and Fox News Radio analyst Bethany Blankley titled, "Common Core ties to Libya, Qatar, Saudi Arabia." Blankley conflated several stories unrelated to Common Core throughout the article, including the addition of two Muslim holy days to the New York City public school calendar and "public-school sponsored trips to mosques via taxpayer expense," to allege that the state standards are "but one of many parts of an intricate plan to infiltrate every area of American society with Islam." She also included a passage supposedly demonstrating Common Core's connection to foreign countries, relying on right-wing birther website WorldNetDaily for evidence:
Globally, Common Core originated from the "One World Education" concept, a global goal orchestrated by the Connect All Schools program. Its origin is funded by the Qatar Foundation International (QFI). The director of QFI's Research Center for Islamic Legislation and Ethics is Tariq Ramadan, grandson of Muslim Brotherhood founder, Hassan al-Banna.
According to the WND website, in 2011, QFI "partnered with the Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education to facilitate matchmaking between classrooms in the U.S. and international schools through ... the 'Connect All Schools' project." QFI states on its website that the initiative was founded in response to Mr. Obama's infamous 2009 Cairo speech, during which the Muslim Brotherhood was seated in the front row.
Mr. Obama's mentor, domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, received $49.2 million from Vartan Gregorian, a board member of the Qatar Foundation, who also is involved with Mr. Obama's White House Fellowships Commission. Gregorian is an integral part of Connect All Schools, through which Qatar invested $5 million to teach Arabic in American public schools
Such inexplicable conspiracy theories about Common Core, however, don't come as much of a surprise given Blankley's anti-Islamic agenda. On her personal website, Blankley has published several pieces supposedly uncovering "The Muslim Brotherhood's Infiltration of the American Government," in a series titled, "The Betrayal Papers," where she implicates everything from Common Core to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce to the Department of Homeland Security.
Blankley's piece is just the latest in a long history of Common Core misinformation from right-wing media. Multiple conservative outlets have promoted tired myths to stoke fears about this set of state-based education standards in math and English voluntarily adopted by 45 states in 2010. The conservative media outrage machine has turned Common Core into something of a "rallying cry" over the past few years, thanks to the loud and often misinformed voices telling audiences to be angry or in some cases, to boycott the tests associated with the standards.
For more on the lies and misinformation about Common Core often propagated by conservative media, watch below:
Hispanic conservative media personalities rushed to defend whether GOP presidential hopefuls Jeb Bush or Ted Cruz "deserve" to be labeled the most Hispanic candidate, ignoring polls that show Latinos care about policies, not personality, and both candidates advocate conservative policies at odds with the vast majority of Latino voters.
After former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush announced his intentions to explore a 2016 presidential run, Hispanic media outlets praised Bush as a "Hispanic candidate," ignoring his conservative policy stances at odds with most Latino voters.
When GOP Sen. Ted Cruz announced his intention to run for the Republican nomination, right wing Hispanic media figures began to scramble to crown which candidate was the "most Hispanic."
In a New York Post op-ed, the Heritage Foundation's Mike Gonzalez defended Cruz from detractors who claimed Ted Cruz "does not speak for Hispanics," arguing that Cruz's family story and upbringing speak to his immigrant background. But during a guest appearance on Univision's Al Punto con Jorge Ramos, Miami Herald columnist Helen Aguirre defined Jeb Bush as "much more Hispanic" than Cruz, "in way of thinking and culture" (her remarks have been translated from Spanish).
On the April 7 edition of CNN's New Day, CNN contributor and conservative strategist Ana Navarro suggested that Bush may have some "Hispanic identity," arguing that he could beat many Democrats in the Congressional Hispanic Caucus if they were tested on "Spanish grammar, and reading, and comprehension, and Latin American history, and culture."
Right-wing media have praised former Florida Governor and possible 2016 Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush's 1999 executive action eliminating race-based affirmative action in higher education admissions. Now, a new report from The Washington Post finds that black student enrollment is in decline at two of Florida's largest four-year schools.
Fox News misleadingly slurred immigrants with legal permission to work in the United States as "illegals" during a segment highlighting attempts by disadvantaged school districts around the country to boost bilingual education initiatives.
On the April 6 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, co-host Steve Doocy introduced a headline news segment by falsely claiming that a nonprofit group is "hiring dozens of illegals to teach disadvantaged students." Doocy acknowledged just seconds later that the prospective teachers could "apply for a work permit and earn a reprieve from deportation under the DREAM Act," but still felt it appropriate to label them with the "illegals" slur commonly used by Fox News:
The segment, which alludes to an April 4 report by the Associated Press about the recruitment of DREAMers as bilingual educators, mirrors a similarly misleading and smear-filled segment featured on Fox & Friends nearly one year ago in which co-hosts Doocy and Brian Kilmeade questioned Denver Public Schools' hiring of so-called "illegal aliens." As was the case today, the teachers in question actually held legal employment authorization.
Fox has a long history of smearing immigrants with the "illegal" label, which reputable news agencies like The New York Times have abandoned because it is an offensive slur.

A segment on PBS' Newshour provided an example of how media should cover racial disparities in school discipline and educational achievement -- as well as a stark contrast with how right-wing media outlets have covered the same issues.
On the April 1 edition of PBS' Newshour, April Brown reported on the beginning of a new initiative in Washington, DC called the Empowering Males of Color initiative, and noted that some are concerned that the focus on boys of color leaves girls of color behind. The segment featured Kimberlé Crenshaw, a UCLA law professor, who pointed to the greater racial disparity in school discipline for girls than boys. The report went on to cover broader racial disparities in education, including the lower college graduation rate, and after-school programs such as Higher Achievement that are designed to help both boys and girls of color.
The Newshour segment was detailed and thoughtful -- providing a striking contrast with the way these issues have been discussed in right-wing outlets. Bill O'Reilly recently covered programs designed to reduce racial disparities in school discipline by declaring that "liberal mayors all over the country are making it easier for violent students to remain in public schools." National Review Online has published several articles that painted an image of black children as inherently more likely to need discipline: a post by Heather Mac Donald said it was "common sense that black students are more likely to be disruptive"; another post cited the "lack of impulse control" of black students (as evidenced, she argued, by higher crime rates among black people). An NRO editorial described optional guidelines from the Department of Justice and the Department of Education to address these disparities as being the administration's "most foolhardy idea yet"; Fox News host Megyn Kelly bashed that same DOJ policy as "handcuffing our educators" and needlessly "bringing race into it."
Newshour's nuanced discussion on racial and gender disparities in education seems far out of reach for outlets like Fox and NRO, which fall at the first hurdle in attributing racial disparities to the characteristics of children of color, and not systemic injustice.
National Rifle Association News host Cam Edwards lashed out at a Daily Tar Heel editorial that argued guns are not the solution to campus sexual assault by claiming that the "burden" of stopping sexual assaults and other violent crimes as they occur "is on the victim."
According to Edwards, "it is the truth that if you are the victim of violent crime or the victim of an attempted violent crime, it is not the patriarchy that puts the burden on you to defend yourself, it is not rigid gender roles, it is -- it's a fact of life."
In a March 22 editorial, independent student newspaper The Daily Tar Heel criticized national group Students for Concealed Carry for raising the issue of campus sexual assault in a gambit to loosen rules on carrying guns on public campuses in North Carolina.
The Daily Tar Heel wrote, "Concealed weapons would not significantly reduce sexual assault and would create inadvertent risks within other forms of interpersonal violence," and added that proponents of guns on campus "could reinforce rape culture because the burden of stopping assault would be further placed upon women." Noting that guns increase the risk of homicide in domestic violence situations, the Tar Heel concluded that "[t]o reduce sexual assault, focus should be maintained on preventative programs that challenge rigid gender roles and promote healthy relationships as well as intervention trainings that teach peers to be active bystanders rather than on measures that will not solve the problem."
On the March 27 edition of NRA News program Cam & Company, Edwards said the editorial "could only be written by somebody on that college campus without a lot of thought and experience in the real world" and that he was "dumber [for] having read" the editorial.
In particular, Edwards took issue with the Tar Heel's argument that telling women that they should carry guns to prevent sexual assault places the "burden" of preventing such attacks on those women. Edwards repeatedly argued that the "burden" of stopping all violent crimes -- including sexual assault -- was in fact on the victim.
Tucker Carlson lauded Wyoming Catholic College's decision to reject federal funding and continue its discriminatory practices in the college's admissions and hiring processes.
The school recently chose to not participate in federal student aid programs, citing a desire to distance itself from the federal government's "influence and control." On the March 29 edition of Fox & Friends Sunday, host Tucker Carlson interviewed the school's president to discuss his institution's decision. President Kevin Roberts explained that the college was avoiding federal provisions that would require the educational establishment to respect basic protections for the LGBT community in the admissions and hiring processes.
Carlson: What are you concerned that the federal government would force you to do against your faith if you continue to take money?
Roberts: Well, as I said, we're a faithful Catholic college, which means that while we love all people and we have charity toward all, we would have problems with admissions and with employment with a transgendered person or someone with a same sex attraction who wanted to be active and an activist with that. And so, in spite of what people think the church may be changing in terms of the beliefs, we believe that in order to maintain church teaching on those principles that we ought not have strings attached to that federal money.
Carlson went on to ask Roberts if the school's move meant the institution could then set its own standards for hiring. Roberts responded saying Wyoming Catholic College would only selectively discriminate in its hiring and admissions processes:
Carlson: So, does this mean, because you're not going to be taking federal money, that you can have any employment standards that you wish?
Roberts: Well, within reason, right? We're not going to discriminate in other ways, but church teaching is very clear that if we were to have, say, a transgendered student want to apply it's not in line with church teaching. It does not mean we hate that person at all. We love them. But it simply doesn't square with the college we have founded in Wyoming.
Carlson ended the interview noting, "that's what principle looks like." His comments are only the latest in Fox's long history of attacking protections for gay and transgender people.
From the March 25 edition of Fox News' Outnumbered:

A broad coalition of 39 major Latino organizations has issued a letter to the heads of six major U.S. English-language broadcasters asking them to work towards better Hispanic guest inclusion on the Sunday morning political talk shows.
The letter, issued by the National Hispanic Leadership Agenda (NHLA) and addressed to the heads of ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC, expresses the group's "deep frustration regarding the continued lack of Hispanic voices" on their agenda-setting Sunday political programs and urges them to "take immediate action to increase Hispanic guest bookings and broaden the scope of issues that include their voices."
Hector Sanchez, NHLA chairman and executive director of the Labor Council for Latin American Advancement, said in a statement that the lack of Hispanic inclusion on those programs "results in distorting the image of our community's contributions to the life of our nation." Alex Nogales, president and CEO of the National Hispanic Media Coalition (NHMC), added: "It is irresponsible to exclude the perspectives of 17 percent of the U.S. population from the airwaves."
Only seven percent of guests on English-language Sunday shows during the last eighteen weeks of 2014 were Latino, according to a Media Matters study. While the letter notes that this proves "an increase from the two percent representation found in a 2011 report by the National Hispanic Foundation for the Arts," these numbers remain significantly short of the 17 percent of Americans who identify as Hispanic.
In the letter, the NHLA encourages the network chiefs to take advantage of the "impressive list of Latino experts from across the country that specialize in issues ranging from education, health, immigration, public safety, the economy, civil rights, the media and beyond."
Fox News host Bill O'Reilly attacked efforts to decrease school suspensions and expulsions with programs known as "restorative justice," ignoring that these traditional punishments disproportionately target students of color.
For decades, many school districts followed zero-tolerance policies on student discipline. Such policies encouraged schools to suspend students for many types of violent and non-violent misconduct, including "insubordination," often at racially disproportionate rates. According to a report by UCLA's Center for Civil Rights Remedies, American students lost almost 18 million days of school instruction due to suspensions just in the 2011-12 school year. In 2014, the Department of Education and Department of Justice reported that the racial disparities "are not explained by more frequent or more serious misbehavior by students of color," and issued new guidelines aimed at reducing racial disparities in school discipline.
In an effort to combat such racially disparate suspension rates, some school districts have promoted alternative school discipline models known as "restorative justice" programs. These programs typically involve working with students to get them to take responsibility for their behavior through group talking and dialogue rather than outright suspension or expulsion. New York City recently announced that "principals must get approval from the Education Department central office before [a] student can be suspended," and in recent years has included "more alternatives to traditional punishments, like peer mediation and early interventions."
During the March 17 edition of his Fox News show, Bill O'Reilly hosted New York Post columnist Paul Sperry for a segment titled, "Chaos in Public Schools." O'Reilly claimed that "liberal mayors all over the country are making it easier for violent students to remain in public schools." O'Reilly added that "students can actually assault teachers without being suspended or expelled in some cases."
But O'Reilly's dismissal of such school discipline reform efforts ignores the racially disparate impact of zero-tolerance policies. As Capital New York explained, "during the 2013-2014 school year, the most recent year for which data is available, 53,000 suspensions were issued, and black or Hispanic students made up 87 percent of those suspensions" in New York City. According to U.S. News & World Report, "Black Americans are suspended and expelled at three times the rate of white students. They make up 16 percent of school enrollment, but account for 32 percent of students who receive in-school suspensions, 42 percent of students who receive multiple out-of-school suspensions and 34 percent of students who are expelled":
The school discipline reforms that O'Reilly attacked have resulted in fewer suspensions. The Christian Science Monitor in 2013 described the impact of such a program in the Oakland Unified School District:
In the 2011-12 school year, African-Americans made up 32 percent of Oakland's students but 63 percent of the students suspended. In middle schools, principals suspended about 1 out of 3 black boys.
The US Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights investigated whether the discipline was discriminatory. Before making a legal finding, OCR collaborated with the district last fall on a five-year voluntary resolution plan to reduce suspensions, expulsions, and the racial disparity.
Suspensions not only dropped by 51 percent last year, but they continue to fall, and [Ralph J. Bunche Academy] eliminated disproportionality in suspensions for African-Americans.
Fox figures falsely labeled President Obama's new plan to protect student borrowers a "bailout," ignoring the realities of the plan as well as the student debt crisis that necessitated his executive action.

Of course you want to know Denny McLain's thoughts on Stephen Strasburg
Sep 6, 2012, 1:30 PM EDT
Or, as McLain refers to him, "Stephen Strousburg," but let's just chalk that up to prison educational programs not being as strong as they should be:
Folks, you never see it coming, it takes one pitch, one bad wind-up, one bad anything, but who the hell can predict that someone is going to get hurt? If I am a fan in Washington, I want my money back if they sit this phenom down for the rest of the year, by the way, if they are afraid of him getting hurt, why pitch him at all? Maybe next year, 5 innings huh?
I'm sort of in an uncomfortable position here in that, very broadly speaking, I agree that Strasburg should pitch more, and I never ever like agreeing with a dude like Denny McLain.
But I'm also of the view that Denny McLain is perhaps the biggest idiot to ever wear a baseball uniform and I find the idea that he makes zero connection between the Tigers pitching him into the damn dirt when he was 20-25 years-old and him breaking down and being washed up at age 26 to be almost too delicious to be true.
Anyway, we have to be near the end of the list people who have an opinion on Strasburg. At least until it comes up in the presidential debates.

- sdelmonte - Sep 6, 2012 at 2:14 PM
The White Sox Fan in Chief and the former governor of Red Sox Nation will probably agree that it's best for Strasburg to not pitch when their teams are playing.
- spudatx - Sep 6, 2012 at 4:21 PM
I can't wait for both candidates to accuse the other's team of having gone oh-fer on the season and that their own team has only taken maybe a loss or two.

It was bad enough when Curt Schilling said Strasburg should have been handled differently. Now I find myself in a complete state of cognitive dissonance.
- amaninwhite - Sep 6, 2012 at 2:02 PM
Romney will claim that benching Strasburg is another example of individual rights being trampled on by those in power who are hell-bent on interfering with the natural progression of a player's career. Natural competition should dictate how his career will play out.
Obama will claim that sitting him is in the overall best interest of the franchise as well as the fans, in that protecting Strasburg's health will help ensure the long-term competitiveness of the club, and will lead to sustained fan interest and ultimately more revenue for the team.
Romney will counter that there's no guarantee that Strasburg will stay healthy in spite of shutting him down, and that it's in the team's best interest to succeed while the opportunity presents itself.
Obama will counter that the potential to overwork a young pitcher, especially one coming back from injury, is very real, citing the examples of Kerry Wood, Mark Prior and Doc Gooden.
Pat Ryan will counter that none of those pitchers were ever injured.
Joe Biden will counter that none of those men were ever pitchers.

And yet you invested the time to read the post and comment on it even though the headline made clear that it was about Denny McLain's opinion. Seems pretty inconsistent to me.

- mazblast - Sep 6, 2012 at 3:50 PM
McLain was and is a world class jerk and thief, but he does know something about pitching, and he's one of the few Washington Senators pitchers post-Walter Johnson that anyone can name.
- Detroit Michael - Sep 6, 2012 at 4:28 PM
I don't think any old-time Washington Senators fans have happy memories of Denny McLain. Older Tiger fans still recall that Tigers-Senators trade as being one of the most one-sided in team history. It's perhaps not a coincidence that the Senators related to Dallas-Fort Worth not long after they acquired McLain.
- mazblast - Sep 7, 2012 at 3:18 AM
I didn't say that any of the 12 surviving Senators fans had happy memories of Denny's time there. I merely noted that he is one of the few Senators pitchers since "The Big Train" that anyone could name.
- matlp57 - Sep 6, 2012 at 4:21 PM
I agree that McClain's post baseball activities don't paint a very flattering picture of him, to say the least, but he
has a point. He was the last guy to win 30 games, and the Tigers did work him into the ground, similar to the way that the Cubs did 10 years ago with Mark Prior and Kerry Wood. Prior never was the same, and Wood had to come back as a fairly mediocre middle innings reliever. So there is some history to suggest that the Nationals have valid concerns, why not have him miss a few starts for the rest of September and then use him in the playoffs, it makes as much sense as what they're going to do.
- mickeylolich1968 - Sep 6, 2012 at 9:26 PM
McClain won 31 games in 1968. However, it was Mickey Lolich who won three games in the world series (all complete games) and hit a home run. In game seven, on two days rest, he beat Bob Gibson 4-1!
- paperlions - Sep 6, 2012 at 4:57 PM
Why did you post a picture of Ron Howard in glasses and a Tigers hat?
- raysfan1 - Sep 6, 2012 at 10:12 PM
Craig loves Ron Howard because they have the same "hair style."
- weaselpuppy - Sep 6, 2012 at 7:28 PM
In a related story, Strasburg pounds a 12 pack, does 8 shots of Jack, then steals everything out of the clubhouse staff's lockers so he can get in character to give an opinion about how big of a jackhole Denny McClain is.

I watched this movie with my 16 y/o grand daughter, we both loved it and we had some interesting conversation regarding the topic...The acting was really good, especially Nikki Reed...My only issue was Holly Hunters role...she's a excellent actress, but I couldn't figure out why she would allow her daughter to disrespect her to the extent she did....Again, Hardwicke is in touch with her inner teen and has put me in touch with mine. I highly reccomend this movie for teens and adults alike...Just keep on open mind parents/grand parents. . .
