March to the Match Podcast: Picking SuperDraft sleepers & why Toronto FC still have big holes to fill
Wednesday, January 15
The Big Rebuild
Thin SuperDraft pool? Maybe. But Doyle's a Combine expert and he's joined in Florida by ExtraTime Radio's Simon Borg to identify the sleeper picks. Will your club steal one? Plus, "superclub" Toronto FC sure look like they're a playoff team on paper with Bradley, Defoe and Gilberto. But they've still got a major Achilles heel. The guys say they're going nowhere if they don't address these needs in 2014.

We've reached the final week of the regular season for winter sports (well, girls basketball has two weeks to go). And I'm sure everyone is looking forward to the excitement of the tournaments, which should be good, as always. During the playoffs — pairings will be released next Monday — I'll have bring back Playoff Central, a daily postseason recap filled with links, leaders and other items.
But before we turn our attention to the playoffs, let's get the power rankings updated. Girls hockey, which had no changes, is up first today. Boys hockey to follow later this afternoon, while the basketball power rankings will be revisited Tuesday.
Games played through 2/18/12
1. BFA-St. Albans (12-3-3): In the past month, since their last loss, the Comets are 7-0-1 with five shutouts. Last week: 1.
2. Spaulding (12-3-3): In their last six games, the Crimson Tide have oddly alternated a tie with a win. Last week: 2.
3. South Burlington (10-4-3): The Rebels will look to stretch their winning streak to five games, which would be a season high, in today's meeting against Hartford at Cairns Arena. Last week: 3.
4. Missisquoi (11-6-1): Give the Thunderbirds credit, they are one of two teams (Beekmantown, N.Y., is the other) that played BFA-St. Albans three times in the regular season. MVU went 1-2 against BFA, including Saturday's 3-2 defeat. Last week: 4.
5. Burr and Burton (17-1): Overcoming first-period nerves, the Bulldogs struck for four second-period goals to defeat Stowe in a meeting of top Lake Division teams. The win puts BBA in line for the top seed for the Division II playoffs, and secures another week in the power rankings. Last week: 5.
On the bubble
Essex (8-8-1), after its tie with Spaulding, shouldn't be counted out for a playoff run.

With this restaurant, famed New Orleans restauranteur Ralph Brennan brings his authentic New Orleans/Cajun tastes to the Disneyland Resort. Decorated to appear as a hidden courtyard in New Orleans' French Quarter, all the staples of Cajun cuisine are offered and if you're there in the evening you're likely to have some very good jazz playing live in the background. If nothing else, stop by in the morning for a cup of chicory coffee and beignets and pretend you're sitting at Cafe Du Monde in the Quarter waiting for Mardis Gras to begin.
In the main restaurant there are separate menus for brunch (weekends), lunch, and dinner. Each menu offers the Cajun staples as well as some more unique dishes for the more adventurous (perhaps Drunken Chicken, a chicken breast marinated in rum).

Rudi Vogt kicked a late penalty goal for GWK Griquas – a feat Tiaan Marx of the Ford Pumas could not emulate two minutes later – as the team from Kimberley beat the Mpumalangans by 21-20 on Saturday.
At DHL Newlands in Cape Town, a last-minute try by Martin Landajo of the Pampas XV saw the defending Vodacom Cup champions from Argentina clinch a humdinger by 30-27 over the Regent Boland Kavaliers on Saturday.
This try, the Pampas' third, broke Boland hearts as the Argentineans erased a 27-13 deficit in the final 25 minutes.
DHL Western Province won their fourth consecutive game of the season as Kurt Coleman contributed 16 points in their 31-7 victory over the Border Bulldogs in a cold and wet East London on Saturday. Coleman scored two tries and added three conversions.
Also on Saturday, the Vodacom Blue Bulls scored their second victory of the season when they beat a gallant Leopards side by 28-15 in cool and windy conditions in Potchefstroom, with the home side scoring a consolation try, by Johann Laker, on the stroke of full time.
On Friday, the Sharks XV overcame a brave performance by the SWD Eagles in the second half in Durban before winning by 38-20 after going into the break comfortably ahead by 33-6. The home side scored six tries to two, but struggled to keep their structure in the second stanza following a number of replacements.
The EP Kings slowly built momentum in their clash with the Toyota Free State XV and ended up winning this clash in the South Section quite comfortably, by 36-22, in a cold and wet Port Elizabeth on Friday.
It was the Kings' third win of the season as they cemented their place in the top four of the log en route to the playoffs, but for the men from Bloemfontein, their third defeat of the season saw them finish the weekend in sixth spot.
The biggest victory of the weekend belonged to the MTN Golden Lions, who crushed the winless Griffons by 71-26 in Johannesburg on Saturday. The home team, who got hammered by the Vodacom Blue Bulls last weekend, scored 11 tries, the most in a single match thus far this season.

As I walked through hundreds of strategically placed thick black threads along the walls of an abandoned building that was all but ready to collapse, all I could do was wonder where they might lead me. But my curiosity propelled me forward along the building's narrow corridors, along a totally black carpet, until I reached the end – and entered the most unique dining setting imaginable (video preview). Aimed at increasing the appetite, not only with the impromptu cooking sessions that were about to take place but also providing a taster of what was about to happen during the next days, this was it, ... my first impression after my arrival to the Chinese capital which would prepare me for a journey into the unexpected... to the multitude of unique events that took place during Beijing Design Week from the 28th of September till the 6th of October 2013.
The image I've just described is ''Lǎo shù kāi xīn huā'' (Eng: Old Tree - New Blossoms), the spatial installation by reMIX studio in a space destined to become part of The Orchid Hotel located on 38 Paizi Hutong in Beijing's Dashilar area. And for all of you who may be wondering exactly what a ''hutong'' is, hutongs are ancient narrow alleyways that used to connect different courtyard residencies in old Beijing city. Having witnessed the passage of time for hundreds of years, during BJDW they witnessed the passage of design aficionados from all around the world who had made the pilgrimage to Beijing to discover ''Dashilar Alley'' - arguably the most dynamic section of Beijing Design Week followed by ''CCD/The Community'' in Caochangdi Art Village and the ''751 Industrial Park''. And the reason? To explore the series of projects, events, exhibitions and installations on display inside and outside of the almost collapsing traditional dwellings of the Dashilar area dating from the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644); some of which are begging for renovation. For this purpose, Beijing Dashilar Investment Limited (BDI) and BJDW 2013 launched Dashilar Pilot, inviting top international and local designers, architects, academics and professionals to think through the regeneration of this historic district which seems to have been left out in the cold in the otherwise fast paced modernization of the whole city. Some of the long term renovation projects include the "Micro-Hutong" building experiment by Standard Architecture on the Yangmeizhu Hutong, Michael Young's striking re-imagination of the traditional hutong toilet which aims to improve the neighborhood's facilities and Matali Crasset's ''Unlimited Hutong'' renovation proposal on 6 Cha'er Hutong, an open house for all of its inhabitants to socialize and experiment with creative activities while young designers in residence will interact with the local community. Finally, ''Re-up'' the first project by designer and entrepreneur Lin Lin 琳琳 of Jellymon together with Spoonful of Sugar which is scheduled to open in November 2013 aiming to ''Re-up'' the entire Dashilar neighbourhood through the creation of a holistic upcycle-themed food & beverage and retail space inside a former electrical-relay device factory in a historic art-deco building on 59 Tie shu Xie Jie Hutong.

Other exhibits included the Dutch design agency SALON, founded in July 2010 by Gijs Stork and Manon Schaa, who invited 10 Dutch designers to explore the Dashilar area and take over specific dwellings in collaboration with 10 Chinese designers in order to present their collaborative projects as part of the Amsterdam Guest City Program (initiated in London in 2011 and Milan in 2012). My favorite was the collaboration between Dutch designer Sander Wassink and local shoemakers who gave both a new life and style to old, ugly shoes after an intense surgery process that was definitely worth observing to see the end result: reborn shoes that were worth wearing!
The design of everyday objects in Russia and China from the 1950's to 1980's was the main subject of the COMMON OBJECTS exhibition curated by Peipei Han and Evgenia Novgorodova which was brought to BJDW by the Moscow Design Museum at Dashilar's FACTORY on 8 Dawailangying Hutong. Other exhibitions also took place in the same building on the entrance of which we detected the ''Scagnel'' concrete stools that Italian designer Luca Nichetto dedicated to the area for tired BJDW visitors to rest their weary feet to be later used by local residents who may use them for a multitude of purposes, even including eating off them. It's worth mentioning that Nichetto has also completed his first ever architectural project in Asia: the Tales Pavillion at Beijing's Lido Garden, with a dynamic façade made of 1,200 brass tubes which hosts the new cutting edge showroom for China's sole representative of world renowned brands including Foscarini, Ibride, Petite Friture, Diamantini & Domeniconi and Seletti.

Northeast of the Dashilar district, two equally important sites of Beijing Design Week showcased dozens of cutting edge projects by international and local creative minds (that required a lot of walking around their endless industrial grounds). The first one being 751 D-Park located next to the 798 Art District (where the famous Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (UCCA) is located), which hosted the 751 Intl Design Festival on the grounds of a former power plant. On that same spot, newly established Tongji University Press presented an exhibition of their brand new ''Luminous City'' series inside the carriages of a train, engaging two of China's most acclaimed architects, Zhang Yonghe and Ma Qingyun. Some meters away, the ''Swarovski Digital Crystal'' landmark London exhibition was brought to Beijing where we were able to explore the concept of memory in the digital age inside a temporary black labyrinth designed by architect Ma Yansong of MAD Architects. The exhibition featured new works by both established and emerging Chinese designers with Naihan Li's Crystal Puzzle standing out. The other important BJDW site was CCD, the notorious Caochangdi Art Village on the city's outskirts which hosts a self-motivated group of galleries. Infamous contemporary artists such as Ai Weiwei who moved from the US to China in 1999 has not only built a studio-house - his first architectural project - but has also designed a Red Brick complex of buildings housing galleries and artist studios which has upgraded the reputation of the entire village attracting more and more creative tenants to its grounds along the way. In one of its courtyards, we detected the CCD pavilion, a ground-breaking stage system equipment made of copper pipes and ceramic-vases as speakers by world-known contemporary artist Liu Wei, with the technical support of RAWR-Lab.

A little further afield from Dashilar, 751 and Caochangdi, we didn't miss the chance to see what was going on around the Chaoyang and Dongcheng districts. In the Sanlitun area of Chaoyang at the Nali Patio we discovered David Xing & Jack Xiang, the talented minds behind 'Make+' studio (做+) and their successful endeavours to design traditional furniture with different materials (their Translucent rammed earth divider and traditional Chinese chairs fabricated from Red Acryl were a great discovery). On 35 Mao'er Hutong in Dongcheng, inside the former house of China's Last Empress located between Houhai Lake and Lama Temple and a breath away from the bustling Nanluoguxiang Hutong, we were bowled over by the enthusiasm of Isabelle Pascal, a French entrepreneur who moved to Beijing back in 2007. Driven by the ''5 Elements'' of Chinese philosophy {Wood (木 mù), Fire (火 huǒ), Earth (土 tǔ), Metal (金 jīn) and Water (水 shuǐ)}, Pascal created the ''WUHAO curated-shop'' in 2010 which showcases and fosters many of the most talented and eco-conscious Chinese creative minds ((Xiao Tianyu 肖天宇, Su Chunrong 苏春容, Zheng Haichen 郑海晨, Wang Kaichuan 王凯川, Wang Hao 王昊, Zhang Cheng 张 晨, Huo Yi Jin 霍奕谨,Wu Mian 吴冕 to name a few). Unfortunately, as is often the case, beautiful things don't last forever and Pascal is searching for a new space in Beijing to house WUHAO after the government decided that she must leave her current space. That said, we're sure that her passion and enthusiasm will lead her to the next best spot in the city and hope to discover her behind another traditional Chinese red door during BJDW 2014!

Like a lotus flower which has the ability to grow through mud, Beijing Design Week 2013 unveiled the potential of an evolving creative generation with the power to shake up the other side of the planet through a blend of collaborations between Asian and International talents. Despite the fact that there were days when it was literally impossible to breath due to Beijing's notorious heavy pollution, talented immigrants, like the Italian, now Beijing-based curator and creative director of BJDW 2013, Beatrice Leanza, have brought their international expertise and a breath of fresh air to rejuvenate an entire creative community of local talents. And it is elements and talents such as these that are sure to make Beijing Design Week an important event in design aficionados' calendars for years to come.

''Memory is artificial; it is the abstract impression of combined experiences recorded by the mind, yet each moment, existing only once, holds a unique Crystal Puzzle is a tactile work that invites visitors to play with and experience Swarovski's crystal in a new way; incased within various layers of a wooden structure, the crystal and LED lights at the ball's core sparkle as it emits varying forms of light and shapes as the viewer rolls and interacts with the piece.''- Naihan Li.

By the time ZZ Top hit the stage at the Majestic during the band's last time in town in October 2012, the ageless Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill and Frank Beard had managed to party at Mi Tierra, SoHo Bar and Rosario's as well as get in a little shopping at Penner's. The "little ol' band from Texas" mixed in new cuts off the Rick Rubin-produced "La Futura" with classics from "La Grange" and "Tush" to "I Thank You." Tight, overdriven blues rock is a given — as are the long beards, shades, synchronized dance steps, choreography and all.

NBA Morning Stack: The Knicks are 5-0
|Posted by shawn cassidy on November 14, 2012 at 6:15 AM
The Knicks are coming out this season on fire, and the 5-0 start is a bit shocking. At least to me. They've been without Amare the entire season. And that hasn't effected the Knicks, and I wonder if it will hurt them when he does return. We've seen this storyline before in New York. Does Lin from last season ring a bell. The Knicks were rolling when Melo, and Amare were injured, and when they returned the Knicks started to lose. Same thing happened when Amare was out, and Melo was in. The Knicks seem to play better without Amare.
Carmelo Anthony scored 25 points, J.R. Smith and Raymond Felton each added 21, and the New York Knicks held off the Orlando Magic 99-89 on Tuesday night to improve to 5-0. Their best start since 93-94, and they made it to the Finals that year.
"Defense, we buckled down," Anthony said. "We kind of slowed them down, kept them off the glass rebounding. Once we had a chance to rebound the basketball, get out and make some shots, we didn't turn back from there."
Mike Woodson is a defensive coach, and I can't believe Melo has been pretty good on offense. Right now the Knicks have a huge point differential, and their the second best scoring team in the league with 104.5 a game, and they allow the fewest points per game of 87. The Knicks have solid wins. They beat Miami for their first win, and they beat the Mavs who have played well this season. They beat the 76ers twice, and tonight the Magic. I don't know if the Knicks continue this crazy pace, but I think they won't. But I do believe this is the best team that New York has seen in a long time.

This 24-hour diner is a local institution that serves consistently good food. As it's incredibly popular with the late-night crowd, be prepared to wait for a table. 16341 Pacific Coast Hwy., Sunset Beach, (562) 592-5404. $
Like most ethnic grocery stores, the Korean-centric HK Market functions more like a Costco, a capitalist wonderland where jewelry stands abut gumball machines and towers of bags swelling with rice are visible from the counter where a cute girl sells designer purses. The most enjoyable feature here, however, is the aisle stands where you can sample its products, from fat Korean sushi rolls to an infinite number of kimchis. 14551 Red Hill Ave., Tustin, (714) 731-6801. $
It's a sweet shop and a produce vendor, a place to rent videos, buy Urdu-edition newspapers, and get a home-style meal in a pop-culture mini-bazaar that caters to your taste for Indian soul food. 14441 Newport Ave., Tustin, (714) 731-2910. $
Go for the employee sampler, which features four different pizzas, including barbecue chicken, zesty Italian, the Villa Park special with fresh basil and garlic, and the combo with pepperoni and sausage. 17853 Santiago Blvd., Ste. 101, Villa Park, (714) 998-2961. $
The back-and-forth between French and Vietnamese décor at this vegetarian restaurant gets dizzying, even a bit annoying. But bickering soon dissipates under the brotherhood of great food, hybrids that you can imagine indulging in along the banks of the Seine or Mekong. And as Edith Piaf begins to sing "La Vie en Rose"—for some serendipitous reason, the CD player always plays her torch song around dessert time—and you sip on a second order of coma-eradicating coffee, you can feel the world revert to a pre-Dien Bien Phu era, where French elegance and Vietnamese refinement waltzed tenuously. 7360 Westminster Blvd., Westminster, (714) 890-9711. $
Pagolac will show you another side of beef—seven, to be exact. "Bo 7 Mon," the restaurant sign's subtitle, is Vietnamese for "seven courses of beef," the restaurant's specialty.

It seems like any other Little Saigon pho factory until you come across the pho pin xe lua—bull cock pho. It's not that tasty, so once you've ordered it for the fear factor, move on to the escargot with tofu and green banana, an appealing array of colors, seasonings, smells and textures essential to multidimensional and flavor-balanced dishes. 10487 Bolsa Ave., Westminster, (714) 839-8916. $
The place has an interior seemingly boxed up and mailed from fin-de-siècle Paris. The distinctly cosmopolitan appearance of the restaurant carries over into the song selections (we hear English-, Spanish- and Vietnamese-language tunes) and menu (escargot, flan and Vietnamese offerings). 15470 Magnolia St., Westminster, (714) 895-2120. $$
Order a bánh mì ga at the takeout counter, and you'll get a shredded-chicken sandwich. If you sit down and order cari ga bánh mì off the menu, though, a waiter will carry out a bowl of chicken curry stewed in turmeric-scented coconut milk; the bread comes as a half-baguette. Make sense? No? Ah, just chomp on the bánh mì thit nuong, barbecued pork seasoned with a restrained hand. 9039 Bolsa Ave., Ste. 101, Westminster, (714) 895-6114. ¢
While the restaurant's motto, "Food prepared from the heart, with the soul in mind," is cumbersome (it's like a New Age math problem), all of D'Aquila's culinary creations are fabulous, simply fabulous.

This organic mini-chain is an Orange County institution: a place that, along with the Gypsy Den, hipped up vegetarian eating in Orange County years ago. They offer an extensive breakfast-through-dinner menu, but constant is their remarkable soyrizo—chopped up with onions, tomatoes and a bit of salsa instead of prepared in greasy, crispy cylinders hours after being removed from a pig—but this soyrizo is lean, hearty and even a bit spicy, and all-vegan. 2963 Michelson Dr., Irvine, (949) 752-6667; also at 225 E. 17th St., Costa Mesa, (949) 631-4741; 19770 Beach Blvd., Huntington Beach, (714) 963-6667; 24165 Paseo de Valencia, Laguna Woods, (949) 768-6667; www.mothersmarket.com. $
The restaurant's massive mascot looming over Lincoln Avenue at Original Pancake House—a grinning two-dimensional cook in a poofy hat flipping flapjacks—is a city icon as reassuring to Anaheimers as the Big A.

Blue Devils keep pressure on Hens
A series of games against highly ranked foes tested Duke early this men's basketball season.
Even though unranked Delaware was Saturday's opponent, the Blue Devils brought a similar level of intensity.
No. 2 Duke smothered the Blue Hens from the start, running off 15 consecutive first-half points en route to an 88-50 non-conference win at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
Coming off Wednesday's 73-68 win over No. 4 Ohio State, the third win over a top-five team for Duke (8-0) this season, the Blue Devils played Delaware short handed. Senior guard Seth Curry, averaging 15.1 points per game, sat out the game with a left ankle injury he suffered in the second half against Ohio State.
With freshman center Marshall Plumlee still sidelined with a stress fracture in his right foot, Duke's rotation consisted of eight players.
It didn't matter.
"The way we played for 40 minutes was different than what you would expect — different in a good way," Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said.
Delaware (2-6) made just 24.1 percent of its first-half shots and shot 27.7 percent for the game. The Blue Hens also had nine turnovers in the first half, as Duke led 42-19 at intermission.
"That's a great sign," Duke point guard Quinn Cook said. "There's a tendency for team's that have a great win against an Ohio State to come back Saturday and let up on Delaware. You can't do that. They are a great team. We definitely had to come out and throw the first punch."
Senior center Mason Plumlee had another double-double, his fifth of the season, with 18 points and 11 rebounds. Ryan Kelly also had 18 points, as Duke placed five players in double figures.
"I thought we played terrific," Krzyzewski said. "Sometimes in these situations, fifth game in 10 days, after that four games in seven days stretch, there's a chance for a letdown and we didn't have it."
Duke shot 52.2 percent and dished out 23 assists on its 35 made field goals. Freshman guard Rasheed Sulaimon, after scoring 17 second-half points to key the comeback win over Ohio State, scored 14 points against Delaware to go with six assists.
Defensively, Duke had eight blocked shots and nine steals. Delaware didn't break into double-digits in the scoring column until nearly 13 minutes into the game.
"In case you guys didn't know it, Duke is pretty good," Delaware coach Monte Ross said.
With the short bench and lopsided score, redshirt freshman forward Alex Murphy received his most extensive playing time of the season. A starter in Duke's exhibition games, Murphy played 21 minutes. He scored 10 points and had seven rebounds while committing only two turnovers. He also blocked a shot and recorded a steal.
"It felt good to be out there," Murphy said. "Something like that helps to build confidence. We played well as a team. Guys were very unselfish. Give credit all around there."
Curry said his ankle injury isn't severe and shouldn't cause him to miss Duke's next game on Dec. 8 against Temple in East Rutherford, N.J. In addition to his sprained ankle, Curry also is dealing with a painful shin condition on his right leg.
Saturday's game was the first Curry has missed in his Duke career, having played in 78 consecutive games.
Krzyzewski also said he is confident his senior guard will be back for Temple.
"He should be fine for Temple," Krzyzewski said.
No. 2 Duke 88, Delaware 50
Percentages: FG .277, FT .600. 3-Point Goals: 2-14, .143 (Saddler 1-3, Anderson 1-8, Rogers 0-3). Team Rebounds: 4. Blocked Shots: 1 (Anderson). Turnovers: 15 (Saddler 4, Hagins 4, Rogers 3, King-Davis, Anderson, Brinkley, Baptiste). Steals: 5 (Baptiste 2, Saddler, Anderson, Hagins).

If you've recently changed your name—whether due to marriage, divorce, or court order—you'll need to update your details with the Utah Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and the Department of Public Safety (DPS) Driver License Division. Additionally, you'll need to change your name with the Social Security Administration (SSA) as well as obtain a new driver's license and vehicle documents.
Change Your Name with the SSA
Before you change your name on your driver's license and vehicle documents, first update your name with the Social Security Administration (SSA). The DMV and DPS may check that your records are up-to-date with the SSA before they will issue you new documents.
Your name change must be completed either by mail or in person. You cannot change your name with the SSA online.
You will need:
- Proof of your:
- U.S. citizenship or legal U.S. presence.
- Name change.
- Identity.
- A completed Application for a Social Security Card (Form SS-5).
Submit the above documents either in person or by mail to your local Social Security office.
Once processed, the SSA will mail you an updated Social Security card showing your new name. Your Social Security number (SSN) will remain the same.
UT Driver's License/ID Card Name Change

You will then need to obtain an updated driver's license/ID card. You can do this either by renewing or applying for a duplicate card. For complete instructions, visit our following pages:
NOTE: You can only renew your UT driver's license up to 6 months before it expires. If the expiration date is more than 6 months away, you will need to apply for a duplicate.
The UT DPS will issue you a temporary driver's license/ID card to use until your permanent card arrives in the mail in about 6 weeks.
Name Change on Car Title & Registration
To change your name on your car certificate of title and registration, you will need to visit a Utah DMV office in person. You will need to:
- Surrender your existing title certificate.
- Submit a completed Vehicle Application for Utah Title (Form TC-656).
- Pay the $6 duplicate title fee.
- Pay the $4 duplicate registration fee, if applicable.
NOTE: If you have a lien on your vehicle, you will need to have the lien holder send the certificate of title to the UT DMV.

- Driver's license renewal: $25.

My new website is up!!
Hey everyone! If all this talk about being a phony and how rap is gonna destroy the world is getting tiresome, why not take a break from it all and check out my bands new website!!
Props to Jorden, our designer!!
Let me know what you think!
Re: My new website is up!!
Yeah, I saw the link on your bands FB earlier.
I really dig the graphics, and it so fits the music.
My critiques:
The background section barely has anything info. I mean, is there a band behind the music?
No photo in the background section. You want people to read about the band, show them the band!
You access the photos from the home page, but once you're off the home page, you can't get directly to them without multiple clicks.
I really dig what you're trying to go for, but it looks too much like you don't want anyone to really know about the band. The veil of mystery works on occasion, but not often.
(and I only give you such hard critiques because I love your band and want to see you do well).
Re: My new website is up!!
Very cool .... I only wish ... you had "physical" copies ... of your EP.
I'd whip out the PayPal card in a minute ... you guys got a good sound, prog. rock with melody ....
And a great web site. I'm not gonna tell you good this and great that ... but change this .... you should do that ..... you have a web site, and that's cool. My issue with Miss Sammi WFD 2011, in another thread, no web site .... only a Facebook page.
Re: My new website is up!!
Hi Jonathan,
Nice website! Listening to your music now...damn you guys are good! Not the style of music I normally listen to but you guys have a nice combination of sounds that I find very appealing. I'm a new fan.
Re: My new website is up!!
I'm old fashion, I still want a physical disc.
Although, from my experience, it's not worth it for bands to print up CDs, because there only a few people who actually want to buy the physical CD.
Re: My new website is up!!
i love the banner illustration, looks awesome!
Re: My new website is up!!
Hey guys, this is the guitarist from the band.
We are currently finishing the second e.p. so we are putting pressing it ahead of making more of the first e.p.... Mostly due to being 3 fairly poor musicians lol. Rest assured the first e.p. will also be re-stocked after the pressing of the new one. That is the current plan anyways. Thanks for listening to and hopefully enjoying the tunes!
I'd like to mention to that it is our singer/writer that also does all of our art and web programming. Jono and I are lucky for that haha.
Re: My new website is up!!
Very cool website. I'd like to see some info on each member ie; musical education, equipment used, and how long you've been together.
Still I liked the site!
Re: My new website is up!!
And Jonathan, how come there are no pictures of that beautiful tama kit on your bands site?
That drum kit is a work of art into itself!
Re: My new website is up!!
Isn't there a button on the side bar that says media to take you to the pictures?
Thanks for checking it out!
Thanks again to everyone for checking out the site!!
p.s. Tylor you should take some pics of your drums and post them here! lol.
Re: My new website is up!!
Also, we just released a new song!! Head on over to the site and check 'er out!
The new track is titled "For This There Is No Name" and explores some different avenues musically. I'm quite proud of it and hope you all dig it!

How The 'Boy Meets World' Sequel Happened Via Text Message
If you haven't already heard, Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel are reuniting for a spinoff of their classic show "Boy Meets World" that will feature Cory and Topanga's daughter, Riley Matthews entitled "Girl Meets World."
How did Ben Savage contact Fishel about bringing back their old characters for the spinoff?
"It was really cute because I had already talked to [series creator Michael Jacobs] and I didn't know if Ben had already talked to Michael," Fishel said. "Then one night I got a text from Ben that just said, 'Hey what do you think about being my wife again?' And I wrote him back and I said, 'Nothing would make me happier than to call you my husband five days a week."
After they agreed to return, a few more calls were made and they were back on the set like old times.
The plot of the show will be quite similar to "Boy Meets World" only the main character will be a girl and her one sibling won't be a schizophrenic man-baby. Whether or not Will Friedle and/or Rider Strong will make guest appearances is unconfirmed.
The craziest part about the premise, however, is that Cory will now be a seventh grade history teacher just like his legendary mentor, the one and only Mr. Feeny.

COLUMBIA CITY  — Located high on a hill off Bus. U.S. 30, The Lighthouse serves as a beacon of hope to those who find themselves in the darkness of life's troubles.
Michelle Woodard is a case manager at The Lighthouse. She said The Lighthouse is more than just a homeless shelter.
"We've been labeled as a homeless shelter and I guess in some ways we are, but we offer so much more than a roof over their heads. It is really our mission to not only help people get back on their feet, but to provide healing in areas of their life that brought them here in the first place."

As expected, our dear Kate is currently at the Sundance Film Festival where two of her films – "Another happy day" and "Little birds" – premiered yesterday. Kate graced the red carpet at both premieres, and she looked absolutely amazing! I especially adore her hairstyle at both these events. Bucketloads of HQ photos from both premieres are now to be found in our galleries. We are expecting a lot more photos, videos and articles from the festival soon, as there a lot of rumours going around about Kate appearing in a couple of interviews etc. So stay tuned, while you enjoy the new photos :)
– January 23 – Sundance Film Festival (Another Happy Day Premiere) x53
– January 23 – Sundance Film Festival (Little Birds Premiere) x40
Hello netters :D On the 16th of January, our darling Kate attented a Golden Globe afterparty at Chateau Marmont! She looked breathtaking in a pretty blue dress – blue really suits Kate! According to Just Jared, Kate is wearing Burberry head-to-toe and completed her look with Jewelmint jewelry. A couple of photos are now up in our galleries, and I am looking for more as we speak.
I would also like to apologie for the lack of updates here. I'm currently waiting for our brand new layout, and I'm regulary working on more content to come with it. Kate is also pretty quiet now, so I'm taking some time off this site to do offline things, and update sites that I have been neclecting lately. However, as soon as our new layout is done, there will be a lot of updates here at Breathtakingly Bosworth! So stay tuned – I don't think we have to wait much longer until it is done.
Hello netters :) First, I'd like to apology for the lack of updates here the last few days! Kate news has been slow – she has probably taken a well deserved christmas vacation. But today I stumbled upon some very exiting news! Kate's JewelMint partner, Cher Coulter, just tweeted that she and Kate will appear in the March issue of Nylon Magazine. If anyone can contribute with scans for Breathtakingly Bosworth, then please email me! I myself aren't able to get a hold of the magazine as I live in Norway. You will offcourse recieve credit.
@CherCoulter Just finished an epic shoot for nylon with Kate b. Comes out march it's colorful!!!!
As for some site releated news, I am currently working on even more content updates for you. A lot of new site sections are in the making, and I have orderd a new main page theme for the site from the very talented Mycah. I can't wait to recieve this – all her layouts are stunning!
Instyle has made a funny little "click through" article as a dedication to Kate on her birthday. At their website, you can click through nine pages where they talk about her style and beauty over the last past years. It also includes some cute and memorable kate quotes – a sure must see! You can take a look at it here. I have included the first page below:
"I'd rather see somebody wearing too little makeup than too much," Kate Bosworth has said and it's no wonder. With her pale locks and heterochromic eyes—one blue, one hazel—the Warrior's Way star is striking enough to go without. Born in Los Angeles and raised in New England, the former equestrian has played everyone from a surfer girl to Superman's girl. But it's her clean all-American style that has landed her contracts with both Revlon and Calvin Klein Jeans. "The hair is always beautiful, the makeup, the nails—she's never overdone," Calvin Klein designer Francisco Costa has said. "There is this casualness about her." Sounds just right.
The graphic updates continue as I have created two new pages in our media section – wallpapers and AIM icons!. I have included two different sizes for the wallpapers, and I hope everyone will find one that fits their screens! Who doesn't want Kate's gorgeous eyes showing up on their screen everytime they turn on the computer? ;)
Also, I would just like to inform you that our galleries will stay offline for a couple of minutes, maximum an hour. I am upgrading it to the latest version, but I promise to have it online again for you as soon as possible. While waiting, enjoy the new graphic updates!
New Pages:
– Multimedia > Wallpapers
– Multimedia > AIM Icons
Second update up today, as a way to celebrate Kate's birthday, is a new icon archive update! I have made 25 new photoshoot icons, most using the new JewelMint photoshoot. I tried out a couple of new colorings – and I would love to hear your opinions on them! More updates are comming up soon – so keep checking back :)
- Photoshoots (80 icons)
Our darling Kate is turning 28 years today, and I would like to wish her a very happy birthday! :D She has achieved so much during her 28 years on this earth, and I can't wait to see what she will do in the future. 2011 is set to be a huge year for Kate, with a lot of releases – and we will be here to support and promote her!
As I told you earlier, I have put togheter a couple of surprises to celebrate her birthday. But as previously stated, those will unfortunately not be ready today. However, I hope to have a galore of gallery and content updates up for you here today, so make sure you drop by regulary :D First up is 2 gorgeous JewelMint photoshoots – one are additions + better quality replacements of yesterday's shoot, while the other is brand new. Thank you so much to 21 and Summer for these!
– Photoshoots from 2010 > Session #08 x8
– Photoshoots from 2010 > Session #09 x6 new, 2 replacements
Kudos to the amazing Belowen, we now have a gorgeous new JewelMint photoshoot of Kate! Kate looks absolutely stunning in the new photos, and I love the new collections. The photos can now be found in our galleries, and make sure you head over to JewelMints official website for more information.
First up, HAPPY NEW YEAR NETTERS! I hope you all had a wonderful time last night, and that the first day of 2011 have been a great day for you. I can't wait to continue to work on this site in 2011 – I have a lot of plans for Breathtakingly Kate Bosworth, and I hope that you will all continue to stay with us. I truely appriciate your support!
Thank's to a couple of sweet people over at the Kate Bosworth Forums, we know that Kate has appeared on Encore's in the house! The episode aired on the 30th December, but it is said to repeat on Kate's Birthday tommorow at 10:30AM. If anyone is able to record this for us, and send it or screencap it, I would really appriciate it! Just drop me a line at email@example.com.
As for Kate's birthday tommorow, I have arranged a couple of cool surprises to celebrate :) However, they will unfortunately not be ready by tommorow! But stay tuned a bit later this month for some site surprises! If possible, I will drop by and make some gallery and content updates tommorow as well.
I was surfing through our galleries yesterday, and noticed that the "The Warrior's Way" folder lacked a lot of new released images. There's a lot of stuff that needs to be added, so I hope you will all stay patient while I go through the galleries and add the things that are missing. Today, 15HQ Movie stills, 1HQ poster and 2HQ behind the scenes photos have found their way into our galleries! I hope to have screencaptures from some of the featurettes up later today.
I have noticed that I have a lot of Kate photos that are not in the galleries. Therefore I have decided to put the content updates on a little hold, while I make sure our galleries get completely up-to-date. I will also most likely re-do the entire photoshoot category, as I have a lot of photos that are not already in there. This might take a little while – but I will throw in a couple of content updates while fixing the galleries, so that you won't be bored :D

Mother finds strength to make Toledo her homeWritten by Nicholas Huenefeld | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Soraia Taha struggled in her younger days, but never gave up on making Toledo a home for her daughter.
Taha fell in love with America when she was an exchange student in Appleton, Wis., in 1979. However, she would have to return to Brazil after one year and she was disappointed.
"I had just fallen in love with this country," Taha said. "There was nothing here I didn't like, except maybe the cold. I prefer the hot weather in Brazil."
She finished her four-year mathematics degree in Sao Paulo, never able to get the United States out of her mind.
"I was really lost," she said. "I wanted to come back, but I had no way."
That was until a young child and his father, who owned a business called Open Pantry in Toledo, visited Brazil looking for a translator. She offered her services and they accepted.
"I think they probably thought I wasn't coming," she said. "They were probably like, 'oh yeah, sure, ok.'"
She started working at Open Pantry immediately, and to make a little extra, she took a second job at a local carryout.
"Guess what, though?" Taha said. "I couldn't make it. Even though I was working day and night at two markets at the time, I had a small amount of money."
Facing reality, she was prepared to go home. As one last effort, she took and passed the U.S. Postal Service test.
"I was not nervous at all taking the test because I thought I was going home," she said. "When they got back to me and said I scored 100 percent, I was in shock."
She started working for the postal service, and, in 1995, had her daughter Stephanie. It was difficult to raise a child as a single parent.
"I was 34 and a single mom," she said. "[The father] had left me when I was seven months pregnant to remarry his ex-wife."
Taha said they have since become good friends and he's been a great father.
"He's very precious because he is very handy," she said, laughing. "That's one thing — if your ex is handy, you can't turn him away."
After a few more years at the post office, Taha left to become a day trader.
"Big mistake," she said. "Big lesson, though."
After Sept. 11, the stocks went down, and Taha lost everything.
She started cleaning offices, houses and anything that came along. She also got a job as a waitress at The Beirut restaurant.
"I would work there until 10:30 or 11:30 p.m. at night, then clean the parking lot for a couple hours," she said.
"To me, work, no matter how much they pay, is money," she said. "No matter how much it is, it's extra."
While she was still waitressing and cleaning, she decided to become a real estate agent in 2004. Yet, she still took on more.
"I didn't want to wait until I needed the money," she said. "I always work. I do anything I can, so I don't ever have to be short on money."
It was at the Beirut where she met Corrine Joseph. The two of them realized they were neighbors and became close friends.
"If you were to give her an A, B, C, D, she would be a double A-plus," Joseph said. "She is first class and a wonderful person. She would do anything for anyone."
Taha said she loves life, even its ups and downs.
Today, she is no longer in real estate, but still cleans, while running a business from her home. She continues to help others, too.
"You know how bad I feel when people say, 'Soraia, can you watch my [elderly] parents?' It's heartbreaking to say no, no matter what kind of job it is."
Taha said she's dedicated herself to Toledo, and through it all, she is grateful to be here.
"I went through a lot, but it was all worth it," she said. "If you ask me what I still need, it's nothing. I've got it all."

Loved the music and message. People friendly, pastor gave a good message. Will come back next time we are in the keys.⚓
this church has many beautiful stained glass windows. with a lot of history and many made by the parisheners at this church. my visitors like seeing this church.
Church members have been gathering weekly for twelve years to cut glass, add foil and finish stained glass windows that adorn the sanctuary and other spots around the church with smaller windows they made to "practice" early in this ongoing project. It's definitely worth a visit to see how volunteers can learn the basics of stained glass and produce windows...

Forum: A dozen reasons Destination Bayfront is a need, not a want
CORPUS CHRISTI - Destination Bayfront is great for Corpus Christi and I want you to know why so you will join me in voting for it this November. Here are my reasons:
1. It is a community vision for our bayfront. Unlike previous ideas for our bayfront, the improvements and operating plan were ideas by citizens in more than 100 public meetings.
2. It has something for everyone — a pavilion for veterans' events, much-needed beach amenities, a pier with shops and restaurants, a first-class festival space for community events and walks, a wonderful kids' splash park, play areas for kids of all ages, a picnic grounds for families, an improved promenade and boardwalk for walking or enjoying the view, bicycle and skate paths, plenty of shade, a dog park, and much more.
3. It is open to the public and does not charge admission. The best recreational amenity we can have for our citizens is open access to great beaches and waterfronts. Sometimes we forget that millions of people travel hundreds of miles each year to enjoy what we have to enjoy every day. We should make these places great so we can enjoy them.
4. There is a nonprofit partner. Requests for the City Council to spend money on any number of issues are constant. What is rare is having a partner willing to spend time and money to help make it happen. In this case we have one to operate the park and raise private money.
5. There is a solid plan for maintenance and operations that won't burden property or sales tax or our utility funds, by requiring a private endowment to be raised to pay for maintenance before construction.
6. It will revitalize our downtown. Other communities that built waterfront projects on the scale of Destination Bayfront had the neighborhood around them spring back to life with construction of new shops, hotels, and apartments.
7. It's a great quality-of-life improvement that will keep young people here and draw new people to our city. Our existing industries are very concerned that we need to keep and draw young people to Corpus Christi to keep their businesses operating.
8. It will help draw new businesses and industries to our city. As an example Volkswagen cited Chattanooga's $120 million 21st century waterfront as a primary factor in the company's decision to pick Chattanooga for its new $1 billion plant that employs 2,000 people.
9. Tourists will enjoy it. A conservative estimate of its effect on tourism is that it will have an $85-$100 million-a-year economic impact.
10. It will make hosting festivals much easier and less expensive. Currently when anyone hosts a festival downtown they have to bring in thousands to tens of thousands of dollars of electrical connections, stages, and restrooms. The improvements include permanent stages with electrical hookups and multiple bathrooms throughout the site.
11. It includes a veterans' pavilion for veterans' celebrations and memorials. If you have ever been to an event at Sherrill Park you understand how much a shaded event space with seating and electrical connections is needed.
12. It will help us rebuild our streets by encouraging development in an area that already has the full range of government services and infrastructure. The increase in tax and utility revenue from that development can be spent fixing our streets rather than stretching our services into new areas. For this reason, rebuilding the vacant portions of our city is a requirement of having good streets and other basic services at anywhere near an acceptable tax and rate burden for our citizens.
Please help make this project a reality by voting for it this November. It is very important to the future of our city.
David Loeb is an at-large city councilman. Before his election he was chairman of the Downtown Management District and helped organize Destination Bayfront.

His story reminds me of the movie "Groundhog Day." He is sure to be highlighted from all the Russian prospects of his age but he is stuck between the levels of basketball and this comes more due to maturity and wisdom. And you can't claim these things from him at the age of 19. Slava is often overwhelmed with wrong emotions prior to a game, during warm-up or even at breakfast. A game for him is a SHOW first of all, not a BATTLE. As a result his game behavior is unpredictable. But Slava is in general unpredictable and uncontrollable –inside and out. Someone simply would be afraid to put such a player in the roster.
His is evaluated as scoring oriented Guard, - a freelancer with orchestrating tasks. He can actually cover positions from 1 to 3 (can play SF under some circumstances) but prefers to be with the ball himself and decide for the others. Being athletic enough for his size he will need to work on his body anyway in the future. His body is flexible but it needs power as USA players of his type have 83-90 kg. He has intriguing offensive skills and solid talent with the ball in his hands. His dribbling ability is his first distinctive feature. With his quick first step, he changes speed and direction nicely, sitting low enough to maintain tempo with his eyes up. Step back, fade away… he is crafty in traffic. He's got excellent drives towards the hoop, but he doesn't share the ball in time upon penetrating. He can run nonstop 40 minutes, just run with the ball, shooting or passing. His decision making leaves much to be desired but it looks like he doesn't realize his problem with that.
The other problem noticed is that Slava has a habit to take the ball into 2 hands at the wrong time. I can't say he is unable to keep the ball alive but it happens suddenly when Slava takes a ball in both hands and then starts looking for an opportunity to hand off or pass somewhere often being almost blocked by his opponent.
His shot is set and is dependable on his mood and spirit, you can observe his long range and he has a really rich arsenal of floaters and jumpers. He has short memory for misses and likes to take initiative (either right or wrong). He has an in time release point; his arc and rotation hardly need corrections. His Jump shot – is his second strongest skill.
Slava can be a marvelous PG and immaculate passer. On the other hand his passes can all be wasted as they are late by a half second. Fedorchenko's passes – is a separate story. Sometimes they are simply magic, - especially transition ones. But in a second Slava can dish the most inconvenient pass ever seen. And this again concerns his decision making. Some experts consider that this component of the game in general can't be trained because it is biological in nature. Slava is like "Golum" from the movie the Lord of the Rings, all the time at cross minds. He keeps in his head to many variants playing out the one which is often wrong. This fact very strongly disturbs Fedorchenko's game.
-Defense and rebound
Defensively Slava cannot boast of anything extraordinary, but he has always "sudden pressure moves" which result in steals and some rebounds here and there.
His ultimate wish is to rebound the ball on both ends and his progress in that element is vivid. His in-time vertical leap allows him to grab balls from the guys who are much higher than him. He has a fighter nature and that adds some quality to his actions. His footwork is above average but you can't say he is the one to shutdown someone with ease. He is emotional and doesn't hide it, which sometimes helps him. (A rare quality for a Russian player.) He is stubborn and sometimes too selfish which hampers his progress. He can loudly shout, squirt out his emotion a sound or gesture during game. Usually such things are inherent in foreign players. Whether these features help his road to Glory is difficultly to tell.
Slava is more poser (show – off), than a plowman. This is, in part, because the game is given initially to him more than to others. He needs to wake up and progress. He needs to surprise everybody around and to benefit from it. The bigger game is calling you, Slava! When we watch basketball, we, anyway, get to an assessment/evaluation of personalities and talents. Fedorchenko as a basketball figure has to turn it into the basketball personality.

Style: mental illness recovery--
good story
Hi Sochin, nice story.
Mine is that I got caught on the grapevine.
I always behaved myself in class, but got a bit out of hand outside of it...
Like hitting someone in the face in the street for no reason, or swearing a racist word at someone on youtube a while back...
Well word got back to my sensei I think of this devious side and a ban it was...
Plus the fact that I used an Akido counter on one of his black belts in class, kinda putting the guy in an arm bar.
Well the guy was sound, but my Sensei didn't like it...
Me dominating one of his black belts, and hence the ban?
I hope that clears things up a bit, John.

SECRET INGREDIENT: Hungarian paprika pepper paste packed with flavor
Flavorful tubes can be found online
Recently my friend Colleen Martin, board member at the Newburgh Senior Center, traveled down the Danube river and stopped in Budapest, Hungary. Bless her, she thought to bring me two tubes of Hungarian fresh paprika pepper paste and I now have a new favorite secret ingredient.
"Every time my husband and I go someplace, I like to go to grocery stores just to see what people eat," said Martin. "I saw the paprika paste where they have it on the cruise ship, but it was expensive ... so I just went to the grocery store. It looked so interesting. They had a big paprika factory there in town, and you could see these big totes and totes of peppers going in, so it seemed such a good thing to bring home."
The pepper paste looks like tomato paste and packs a similar concentrated taste, but it is less sweet, saltier, very slightly spicy and infinitely more flavorful.
One tube of paste is ruby red and has a bit of heat. In English it is called Red Gold.
The other is a creamier orange color, with a hint of caraway. In English it is called Goulash Cream.
A teaspoon or less of either one adds amazing depth of flavor and lots of umami to any sauce or gravy. As a matter of fact, I've begun using it in place of tomato paste in almost all of my cooking.
The bad news: The pastes are not available locally.
The good news: It is easily available online from the maker Univer and is inexpensive.
If you are interested in trying true Hungarian pimento paste, go to judisuniverstore.com, where you can choose these and other paprika products in tubes or jars, and in hot or mild.
Shrimp Paprikash-Style
Serves 4
2 tablespoons butter
2 pounds shrimp, thawed, shelled, deveined
1/2 cup scallions, finely sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon red gold Hungarian pimento paste
3/4 cup sour cream
- hot cooked noodles
1 Melt the butter in a hot skillet until it foams and begins to brown. Toss in the shrimp and stir rapidly over high heat until it curls and is almost opaque, about 3 minutes.
2 Remove the shrimp from the pan, leaving as much butter as possible in the pan. Add a little more butter if necessary. Cook the garlic and scallions, stirring constantly, over medium heat until they wilt and become aromatic.
3 Add the pepper paste and stir, then add sour cream. Lower heat and stir to blend completely. Add shrimp and stir gently until all is hot and well-combined. Do not boil.
4 Serve with warm buttered noodles.
