James Wiley Reiher (born May 18, 1943), better known by the ring name Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka, is a Fijian semi-retired professional wrestler and actor. He is signed with WWE, working in their Legends program. Snuka wrestled for several promotions in the 1970s and 1980s. Snuka was the first ECW World Heavyweight Champion and held the title on two occasions. He is best known for his time in the (WWE) World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in the early to mid-1980s and is credited with introducing the high-flyer style of wrestling to the WWF.[2] His children, Jimmy Reiher, Jr. and Tamina Snuka, are also wrestlers.

Professional wrestling career[edit]
Early career[edit]
Reiher was active in amateur bodybuilding in Hawaii in the 1960s. He also enjoyed some success as a professional bodybuilder, earning the titles of Mr. Hawaii, Mr. Waikiki and Mr. North Shore.[3] Reiher opted to go into the more lucrative career of professional wrestling due to his uncertainty of making a living in bodybuilding.[4] While working at Dean Ho's gym in Hawaii, Snuka met many of the wrestlers who worked in the South Pacific region and decided to try the sport.[3] Snuka made his debut as Jimmy Kealoha fighting Maxwell "Bunny" Butler in Hawaii in 1970.[5] He later moved to the mainland and wrestled for Don Owen's NWA Pacific Northwest territory where he held the belt as Heavyweight Champion six times.[5] He first won the title by pinning Bull Ramos on November 16, 1973.[5] It was in this territory, that Reiher transformed himself into Jimmy Snuka. Snuka also held the NWA Pacific Northwest Tag Team Championship six times with partner Dutch Savage. Snuka also had a two-year feud with another rookie, Jesse "The Body" Ventura.
Snuka also wrestled in several other National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) regions, including Texas. In 1977, he won both the Texas Heavyweight and Tag Team titles. Snuka then left for the Mid-Atlantic where he formed a tag team with Paul Orndorff. In their first television match they defeated the NWA World Tag Team Champions Jack and Jerry Brisco in a non-title bout. Orndorff and Snuka defeated Baron von Raschke and Greg Valentine to become the tag team title holders in 1979. On September 1, 1979, Snuka defeated Ricky Steamboat to hold the United States title. Snuka also formed a tag team with Ray Stevens while with this promotion. His career eventually led him to Georgia, where he teamed with Terry Gordy to win the NWA National Tag Team Champions by defeating Ted DiBiase and Steve Olsonoski.
World Wrestling Federation (1982–1985)[edit]
In January 1982, Snuka entered the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) as a villainous character under the guidance of Captain Lou Albano. Snuka lost several title shots at WWF Champion Bob Backlund, including a steel cage match at Madison Square Garden on June 28, 1982 in which Snuka leapt from the top of the cage, barely missing Backlund who managed to escape the cage for the win.[6] The contest would be declared Match of the Year by Pro Wrestling Illustrated.[6]
Even though Snuka was a villain, the Northeast fans started to cheer on Snuka and his athletic style. An angle was created late in the year which revealed- on an episode of Buddy Rogers' Victory Corner- that Snuka was being financially ripped off by Lou Albano, thus releasing Snuka from Albano's managerial services. Albano then attacked Snuka with the help of "Classy" Freddie Blassie's newest arrival, Snuka's former tag team partner Ray Stevens. The attack solidified Snuka's new role as a fan favorite seeking to settle the score. Snuka brought in his former manager from the Mid-Atlantic territory, "Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers and embarked on a mixture of tag and singles matches against Stevens and Albano across the region.
Snuka also feuded with "Magnificent" Don Muraco in 1983, which began after Snuka entered the ring for a preliminary match while Muraco, the Intercontinental Champion, was being interviewed. Muraco, enraged at the perceived lack of respect, confronted Snuka at ringside, triggering a wild brawl. This feud led to a defining moment of Snuka's career on October 17, 1983, in a steel cage match at Madison Square Garden. The match ended in a loss for the Superfly, but afterward he dragged Muraco back into the ring and connected with the most famous Superfly Splash of his career, off the top of the 15-foot (4.6 m) high steel cage.[7] Future wrestling stars The Sandman, Mick Foley, Tommy Dreamer, and Bubba Ray Dudley were all in attendance at the event and cite this match as the reason they decided to aggressively pursue professional wrestling.[7] Snuka was named the 1983 Wrestler of the Year by Victory Magazine (soon to be renamed WWF Magazine) for his efforts.
In June 1984, Snuka became embroiled in an intense feud with one of the WWF's top villains, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper. In a segment of Piper's Pit, Piper brought bananas, pineapples, and coconuts to the interview to make Snuka "feel more at home" but said he did not get a tree for Snuka to "climb and down like a monkey." Piper then proceeded to smash a coconut on his head when he turned his back momentarily. The attack led to a series of grudge matches between the two that were played out over venues across the US throughout the summer of 1984. The remainder of Snuka's initial WWF stint would see him frequently tangling with Piper one way or another, often via tag matches or wrestling Piper's closest ally, Bob Orton, Jr. Snuka defeated Orton at The War to Settle the Score and put Orton's left arm in a cast for over a year (although, the injury healed in real life long before, Orton continued to wear the cast). The feud played a small part in the first ever WrestleMania in March 1985, when Snuka acted as a cornerman for Hulk Hogan and Mr. T when they faced Piper and Paul Orndorff (with Orton in their corner). The Superfly vanished from the WWF in August 1985, though he still appeared in cartoon form when Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling premiered the following month.
American Wrestling Association (1986–1989)[edit]
After a stint in alcohol/drug rehab, Snuka resurfaced in the American Wrestling Association (AWA) replacing the injured Jerry Blackwell as Greg Gagne's partner in a tag team match against Bruiser Brody and Nord the Barbarian at WrestleRock 86. Snuka split his time between the AWA and Japan throughout 1986 and 1987. His most notable feud in the AWA during that time was with Colonel DeBeers, who refused to fight Snuka because of his race. However, he was able to sneak-attack Snuka by pushing him off the top rope onto the floor and administering several face-first piledrivers. This led the way for a series of grudge matches in 1987.
Return to WWF (1989–1992)[edit]
Snuka re-emerged in the WWF at WrestleMania V on April 2, 1989. He made his televised return to action on the May 27 episode of Saturday Night's Main Event, defeating Boris Zhukov.[8] After a brief feud with The Honky Tonk Man, Snuka made his in-ring pay-per-view debut at SummerSlam '89 against "Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase. Snuka lost the match by count-out as a result interference from DiBiase's bodyguard Virgil, though he gained a measure of revenge after the match by knocking DiBiase to the floor and hitting Virgil with the Superfly Splash.
By the later part of 1989, Snuka was put into a spot like many veterans before him, being used to help put over other rising stars such as "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig. At the Survivor Series, Snuka and Hennig were each the final remaining members of their opposing teams, with Hennig pinning Snuka to win the match for his team.[9] In January 1990, Snuka made his Royal Rumble match debut, lasting 17 minutes and eliminating two competitors before being eliminated by the eventual winner, Hulk Hogan. Snuka had his first WrestleMania match at WrestleMania VI, where he was defeated by Rick Rude.[10] When the Intercontinental Championship was vacated after WrestleMania, Snuka entered the tournament to crown a new champion. He would be eliminated in the first round when he once again lost to Mr. Perfect. At that November's Survivor Series, Snuka joined Jake Roberts and The Rockers in a losing effort against Rick Martel, The Warlord and Power and Glory.
On March 24, 1991, Snuka was defeated by The Undertaker at WrestleMania VII, which began The Undertaker's undefeated streak at WrestleMania.[11] In January 1992, he competed in the Royal Rumble for the vacant WWF Championship, but lasted only 3 minutes before being eliminated by The Undertaker. Snuka left the WWF soon after, his last recorded match being a loss to Shawn Michaels on February 8, 1992.
Eastern Championship Wrestling (1992–1994)[edit]
After leaving the WWF in March 1992, Snuka toured with various smaller organizations in the early 1990s and played a role in the formation of Tod Gordon's Eastern Championship Wrestling (ECW) organization along with Don Muraco and Terry Funk. Snuka was ECW's first ECW Heavyweight Champion and toured with the company through 1994. ECW was later taken over by Paul Heyman, who renamed it Extreme Championship Wrestling.
Semi-retirement (1996–present)[edit]
He was inducted into the WWF Hall of Fame in 1996. He also continued to spend much of his time with East Coast Wrestling organizations through the late 1990s and into the 2000s. During this time, he wrestled the Metal Maniac in a series of matches that spanned across many independent wrestling promotions. Snuka won nearly every one of these matches. On August 15, 1997, Snuka wrestled The Masked Superstar at the IWA Night of the Legends show in Kannapolis, North Carolina. Snuka won the match via disqualification when his opponent hit special guest referee Rick Steamboat.[12][13]
During the later half of the 1990s, Snuka appeared for both major wrestling promotions, the WWF and World Championship Wrestling (WCW). He would make periodic appearances for the WWF, such as competing at the 1996 Survivor Series, he received an standing ovation at this event. Snuka received a lifetime achievement award from WWE (formerly the WWF) in 2002 at Madison Square Garden and began to be thrust into skits by WWE in 2004/2005. Snuka also appeared on WCW Monday Nitro in early 2000, where he gave Jeff Jarrett a Superfly Splash off the top of a steel cage. Snuka also participated at the first XWF TV tapings, accompanying his son, Jimmy Snuka, Jr. to the ring for some matches, including one match where they both delivered the Superfly Splash to prone opponents.
On June 22, 2002, Snuka won the International Wrestling Superstars (IWS) United States Championship by pin fall against King Kong Bundy in Atlantic City, New Jersey, proving to the world that he could still fly.
In 2005, he appeared at the WWE Homecoming, where he delivered a Superfly Splash to Rob Conway with a ring full of legends at his side like Dusty Rhodes and Superstar Billy Graham. He also took part in a backstage skit, chasing after a partially disrobed Mae Young with a wad of Ted DiBiase's money. He was a part of the Taboo Tuesday pay-per-view, where fans voted for him (ahead of Kamala and Jim Duggan) to team with Eugene against Rob Conway and Tyson Tomko. Snuka won the match, pinning Conway after a Superfly Splash. On July 1, 2006, Jimmy Snuka wrestled for 1PW's Fight Club 2 event where he teamed with Darren Burridge to defeat Stevie Lynn and Jay Phoenix.[14] A year later he appeared at the 2007 WWE draft edition of Raw in a vignette for Mr. McMahon appreciation night. On June 24, 2007, Snuka was introduced as Sgt. Slaughter's tag team partner in the open invitational match for the WWE Tag Team Championship at Vengeance, but he was ultimately pinned by his son.
In 2008, Snuka appeared in the Royal Rumble. He was in the match less than 5 minutes and primarily focused his efforts on onetime nemesis, Roddy Piper. Both were quickly eliminated by the next entrant, Kane. Also in 2008 he trained Aloisia (wrestler) who would later appear on FCW and NXT.
On the March 2, 2009 edition of Raw, he was attacked by Chris Jericho during a parody of Piper's Pit. This was part of a storyline where Jericho was disrespecting and attacking legends. Two weeks later, on the March 16, 2009 edition of Raw, Snuka, Roddy Piper, Ric Flair and Ricky Steamboat attacked Jericho. It was announced that at WrestleMania XXV on April 5, 2009, Snuka would be teaming with Steamboat and Piper to face Jericho in a Legends of Wrestlemania Handicap match. Flair was also in their corner. Snuka was the first eliminated by Jericho, who eventually won the match.
On March 28, 2009, Snuka participated at a ICW "Night Of Legends" event edition of 2009, where he fought and defeated former rival Bob Orton, Jr.
On November 28, 2009, he teamed with his son at an NWA Upstate event. They faced the NWA Upstate Tag Team Champions Hellcat and Triple X in a non title match. The Snukas won the match via pinfall.
On November 15, 2010, Snuka made an appearance on an "old school" edition of Raw, where he stood by his daughter Tamina, in the corner of The Usos during their match against Santino Marella and Vladimir Kozlov.
In 2011, Jimmy Snuka competed at JCW: Icons and Legends event competing in a Battle Royal match won by Zach Gowen.
On May 11, 2014, Snuka teamed up with fellow wrestler, The Patriot, to defeat the team of Brodie Williams and Mr. TA at a Big Time Wrestling event.
Personal life[edit]
Snuka and his wife have created a reality show called The Superfly Challenge. It was recently shot in New York, New Jersey, and Maryland. Filming took place at the New Berlin Diner and Nikolai Volkoff's farm. He also is the part-owner of Bodyslam University in South Florida and teaches there once a month. Snuka is also an avid poker player. He was at the Poker4Life tournament in New York City and raised $100,000 for the charity.
Nancy Argentino death[edit]
On May 10, 1983, a few hours after Snuka had performed at a WWF TV taping at the Lehigh County Agricultural Hall in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Snuka placed a call for an ambulance. When emergency personnel arrived at Snuka's room at the George Washington Motor Lodge, they found that Snuka's girlfriend, Nancy Argentino, had been injured. She was transported to Allentown's Sacred Heart Medical Center, where she died shortly after of "undetermined craniocerebral injuries." The coroner's report stated that Argentino, 23, died of traumatic brain injuries consistent with a moving head striking a stationary object. Autopsy findings show Argentino suffered more than two dozen cuts and bruises — a possible sign of "mate abuse" — on her head, ear, chin, arms, hands, back, buttocks, legs and feet. Forensic pathologist Isidore Mihalakis, who performed the autopsy, wrote at the time that the case should be investigated as a homicide until proven otherwise. Deputy Lehigh County coroner Wayne Snyder later said, "Upon viewing the body and speaking to the pathologist, I immediately suspected foul play and so notified the district attorney."[15]
Snuka was the only suspect involved in the subsequent investigation. Although charges were never pressed against Snuka, the case was left officially open. In 1985, Argentino's parents won a $500,000 default judgment against Snuka in U.S. District Court in Philadelphia, PA. Snuka appears not to have ever paid, claiming financial inability to do so.[16] On June 28, 2013, Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin announced that the still-open case would be reviewed by his staff.[15] On January 28, 2014, Martin announced that the case had been turned over to a grand jury.[17]

Bread and Water for Africa has been doing great work in countries throughout Africa for years. They support programs that create self-sufficiency in Africa. Their programs provide necessities such as clean water and more but also educate - building a stronger future for Africa.
I've just recently donated to Bread and Water for Africa and I am very impressed at less than one percent of the money donated to Bread and Water for Africa is going to administration expenses leaving over 99% going to the programs!
Bread and Water for Africa empowers women in African communities which will definitly help enrich the lives of those people!
Bread & Water for Africa has a long history of providing assistance to children in some of the poorest regions on the planet. From food to medicine to education, the organization supports its local partners in providing sustainable solutions to poverty. One of the core strengths of the organization is its ability to identify, qualify, and monitor local organizations to ensure that donations get used as they are supposed to be used.
When the TV reporters are gone, Bread & Water for Africa is still around.
Bread and Water for Africa excels at providing the resources necessary for developing self sufficiency that allows these disadvantaged communities to reduce their dependence on others for the basic necessities for survival. The programs promote enduring skills that will result in a more independent culture.
Bread and Water for Africa is great. They support programs in Africa that the communities develop. They also bring fresh water to areas where there is none. This improves the health and quality of life for all of those in the community. I see from their reporting that they have very little overhead so I know my money is being used wisely.
Bread and Water for Africa does an amazing job of leveraging in country support systems to develop sustainable support structures for communities. This is especially important today, as the major Ebola virus outbreak challenges governmental support systems.

Eli Lake reports:
Yemen's government has announced it will not extradite Anwar al-Awlaki, the U.S.-born jihadist cleric who is credited with inspiring the recent wave of anti-American terrorist plots by al Qaeda recruits.
Over the weekend, Yemeni Foreign Minister Abu Bakr al Qirbi said Mr. al-Awlaki would be tried in the Arabian Peninsula state once he is captured.
"The man the U.S. wants to be extradited will stand trial in Yemen under the national law," Mr. al Qirbi was quoted as saying in the Yemen state news agency, al Saba.
The Yemenis say the problem is their constitution, which prohibits extradition. It can't be changed? Oh well, then the problem is cooperating with America. Apparently, they don't want to be seen as "lackeys" of the U.S. The imam who inspired both Major Hasan and Faisal Shahzad can't then be sent here for interrogation and trial. (Goodness knows whether Obama would insist on a public trial for him.) But we can continue to target and try to kill him with drones.
It seems that our self-satisfied Obama diplomats must resort to some very "hard power" after all. The left may be aghast that the president is relying on assassination. But the rest of the country won't shed too many tears. It would, however, be helpful to have access to him and get much-needed intelligence about other followers who are the next potential bombers. But alas, we can't get the help, and the State Department pronounces itself satisfied: "We are encouraged by Yemen's willingness to take action against various extremist groups, especially over the last year." That's the State Department version of "The system is working." But it really isn't.

ANERA Celebrates 40th Anniversary
AMERICAN NEAR East Refugee Aid (ANERA) celebrated 40 years of commitment to Palestinians and the Middle East at its 2008 annual dinner and fund-raiser on Oct. 10 at the Capital Hilton Hotel in Washington, DC. ANERA is a leading American non-governmental fund-raising organization active in the Palestinian territories (West Bank and Gaza), Lebanon and Jordan. Its mission is to create opportunity and hope for people in the Middle East by improving health care and education, and stimulating job creation.
After the Six-Day War in 1967, attorney Jim Sams, now deceased, of the Arab Emergency Relief Committee, along with his wife, Betty (see photo), and American Friends of the Middle East's (AFME) Executive Vice President Orin Parker realized there was a need to coordinate relief efforts for a new generation of Palestinian refugees. Gazing gratefully at the sea of 500 donors gathered in the ballroom, Betty recalled ANERA's first dinner—in the Sams' dining room.
ANERA was launched to consolidate charities into a single fund-raising organization—tax-exempt, non-political and based in Washington, DC. Some of the individuals who helped from the beginning—a mix of Arab Americans and Americans with backgrounds in the corporate and non-governmental communities—were honored at the dinner (see photo).
Noted author and journalist Barbara Slavin, now Washington Times assistant managing editor for world and national security, served as mistress of ceremony and also "interviewed" Rabah Odeh, ANERA's Nablus Area director, who described ANERA's water projects.
ANERA works with local communities on both large-scale water projects, such as building reservoirs, as well as smaller projects, like installing roof tanks on top of homes. ANERA has built 177 water cisterns, Odeh said, and is building or repairing water networks and pipelines in the West Bank and Gaza. Salt water is seeping into Gaza's fresh water, he warned, and Gazans can't afford bottled water. In the West Bank, more than 225,000 homes are not connected to a water network. Palestinians pay a high price for water delivery ($9 per cubic foot) versus piped water ($1 per cubic foot), Odeh said. (Volunteers passed around red water buckets to collect funds to support more water projects.)
ANERA and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) signed a "Cooperative Agreement" making ANERA responsible for implementing the Emergency Water and Sanitation and Other Infrastructure Program in the West Bank and Gaza. The $50 million program, which began on Oct. 1, 2008, will span five years.
Palestinian-American comedian Aron Kader—who credits his Palestinian father, Omar Kader, and his Mormon mother, Nancy, with giving him so many reasons to become a comedian—provided hilarity. A wonderful film directed by Nisa Sinnokrot (who also directed "Palestine Blues") documented ANERA's work. All of ANERA's projects, including building or repairing schools and hospitals, also provide badly needed employment to Palestinians.

Man charged in fatal West Side shooting
By Ana Ley : November 23, 2012 : Updated: November 28, 2012 4:16pm
More Information
A West Side man has been charged with fatally shooting his sister's boyfriend at their home.
Police believe Jesus Ramiro Rivera, 19, shot Ryan Yearley about 3:30 a.m. Thursday at the house in the 2000 block of Delgado Street. His body was found in an apartment set up inside a shed behind the house, an incident report states.
Officers said that for reasons unknown, it took 12 hours for the victim's girlfriend to call 911.
The victim's mother came to the house Thursday looking for Yearley, police said at the scene. The girlfriend wasn't immediately forthcoming, but eventually called police at the mother's urging, police Sgt. Jimmy Willingham said.
There is some evidence to indicate Yearley's body was moved there from the house, Willingham said.
Yearley, 21, was found face-down inside a bathtub and wrapped in a mattress, the report states. A shotgun was found inside a closet, where someone apparently had tried to hide it under blankets.
Investigators believe Rivera was in the house when they first arrived but slipped out before they could speak to him. He later was found at his grandfather's house on Calaveras Street and charged with murder.
He remained behind bars Friday in lieu of posting $100,000 bail.
Staff Writer Vianna Davila contributed to this report.

Heating Oil Prices Hold Steady
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) – Despite the colder days and longer nights, Maine home heating oil prices are holding steady. The latest weekly price survey by the governor's energy office released Tuesday finds an average statewide price of $3.53 cents per gallon for Number 2 heating oil and $3.94 per gallon for kerosene. Both prices are the same as last week. The average price of a gallon of propane rose by 2 cents over last week to $2.70. Prices for heating oil tend to be lower in the western and southwestern areas of the state and higher in northern parts. Agency officials urge residents to make their homes as energy efficient as possible by weatherizing or installing less expensive and more efficient heating systems.

Review By Steve Angelly - November 17, 2004
The GPU running at 600MHz is an impressive 100% increase from the initial
299MHz default clock setting! No problems were encountered running at this clock
frequency during this review. Still, I would caution anyone to use care and to
accept the risk when overclocking any component outside of specifications.
Although my results were significant I cannot guarantee you results will be the
The memory was different story. Set to 600MHz, 3DMark03 benchmark would complete
the tests but with light artifacts in the 'Nature' portion of the tests.
Aquamark3, at 600MHz ran without any noticeable artifacts. Nevertheless, I
decided to back off to a memory overclock of 575MHz to be safe. I should note
that lowering the memory clock frequencies by 25MHz on the memory reduced
recorded frame rates in Aquamark3 by just over 2 frames per second (FPS)
Although I would not consider this card high on the list for enthusiasts or
dedicated gamers, the overclock capability of this little card was impressive
and did indeed provide significant performance increases as will be shown in the
accompanying tests and synthetic benchmarks.
A game that has maintained significant popularity with the recently released
expansion pack, "United Offensive." I have selected the Dawnville Demo from the
original Call of Duty game for initiating the gaming tests with the Gigabyte
6600 PCI-Express video card.
A minimum of 3 runs of the timedemo at each resolution and graphic settings were
performed. An average of at least 3 of the resulting scores were then recorded
in the table below. Specific resolutions used were: 800x600, 1024x768,
1280x1024, and 1600x1200. Antialiasing (AA) and anisotropic filtering (AF)
incorporated with specific resolutions were: No AA/AF, 2xAA/0xAF, 0xAA/4xAF,
0xAA/8xAF, 2xAA/4xAF, and 4xAA/8xAF. Timing frequencies were default clocks
(299/552) and 600/575 for overclock timings. All in-game graphic settings were
configured to the highest quality and sound was set in-game to Miles Fast 2D
Positional Audio at 44kHz.
Overclocked results highlighted below
The Gigabyte 6600 runs CoD with ease providing excellent game play at all
settings tested. I experienced severe reduction in FPS from use of lower to a
higher resolutions. I would recommend this game be played with average frame
rates of 40 or better for good game play.
At the highest settings tested, 1600x1200, 4xAA/8xAF, frame rates averaged 32.1
with default timing frequencies and the minimum frame rate occasionally dipped
into the teens at 17 FPS. Although playable, these settings provide marginal
performance for this game and some stuttering or pausing may be experienced in
graphically intense sections of the game. Either resolutions of 1024x768 or
1280x1024 with 4xAA/8xAF provided excellent game play although I personally opt
for the resolution of 1024/768 at default timings (299/552) on a 17 or 19-inch
CRT monitor. I did not run the game on my 17-inch LCD but by looking at the test
results it should run well at 1280x1024 4xAA and 8xAF.

"Play time" is considered the time from when the ball is snapped to when the play is blown dead. There are, on average, about 130 plays per game. Each play, from time of snap to time of the play being blow dead, averages about 6-7 seconds. So 6.5 * 130 is about 845 seconds or roughly 14 minutes of "playing" time

Laurie Osborne teaches Shakespeare, film theory, literary theory, and, with particular glee and wild abandon, composition. After completing her book, The Trick of Singularity: Twelfth Night and Performance Editions, Osborne vowed never to publish again. Or at least not on Twelfth Night. She has been unable to keep that promise and has an essay forthcoming in 2008 on amity in Twelfth Night. Her most recent scholarship could be loosely linked under "Shakespeare and Popular Culture." Romance novels, young adult fiction, and, yes, a LOT of Shakespeare on film are all victims of her pen. She has developed a website devoted to one of these unlikely topics entitled Romancing the Bard, and she actually has a page facebook. Her favorite color is teal, her favorite song is Brahms' 2nd piano concerto, her favorite junk book is The Grand Sophy, and her most treasured achievement is the first CWB Colby Senior Teaching Award given to a female professor.

Taking more than a nod from classics like doom, this fps delivers old school in a slick chrome covered package. Graphics are great although shadows are lacking, so don't expect doom 3 quality visuals. However, the framerate is nice and high as a result and the controls are smooth and fluid. The story is pretty basic as you'd expect from this type of fps and involves you trying to infiltrate an enemy installation in order to take down an AI nemesis. This holographic chappy pops up at the start of each mission to remind you of how much of a badass he is before throwing all manner of defense drones against you. The AI is adequate for this type of game and you will be overwhelmed quickly by the drones if you don't keep blasting away. This is one of my favourites at the moment and I'm sure I'll be playing it for months to come.

A day after the Canucks made a big splash late in unrestricted free agency, snagging hometown blueliner Jason Garrison, they re-found their thriftiness and dove into bargain bin, re-signing forwards Andrew Ebbett and Steven Pinizzotto to two-way deals.
It's appropriate that the Canucks announced these two signings at the same time. While Ebbett and Pinizzotto are very different players, they both have something important in common.
(No, it's not surnames littered with double consonants, although there's that too. Nor is it the fact that their post-signing tweets are almost identical.)
It's that, thanks to unlucky seasons shortened by upper-body injuries — Ebbett gruesomely broke his clavicle in Boston and Pinizzotto never played a game due to recurring shoulder problems — the free agents had little negotiating power, which meant they could be had on the cheap. After Marco Sturm and Byron Bitz last year and now Ebbett and Pinizzotto, it's clear that Mike Gillis loves a good bargain (or is a descendant of Florence Nightingale), so these signings were right within his wheelhouse.
Ebbett inked a one-year, two-way contract worth $600k in the bigs and $300k in the minors. It's a marginal pay increase at the NHL level, from $525k, but last season, he was on a one-way deal. Terms of Pinizzotto's deal have not yet leaked, but it sounds like it's a two-way and it will probably pay similarly to 2011-12, a year in which he pulled $600k in The National and $275k in the A.
Granted, neither player was exactly raking it in last year, but both had the leverage of other interested suitors when they signed those deals. This year, after earning warning labels due to their injuries, they were the targets of much less wooing.
So what will both players be doing if they can stay out of the medical room this time around?
Ebbett will likely find himself in the same role as last year, a thirteenth forward type that can be used as a band-aid solution anywhere on the first to the fourth line without cratering the team's possession statistics. It went relatively unnoticed, but between scratches healthy and unhealthy, Ebbett's underlying numbers were actually pretty impressive. If his play in 2012-13 corresponds to what we saw in his 18-game sample from last year, he'll be a valuable contributor.
As for Pinizzotto, if he could get into a regular-season NHL game, I suspect Vancouver fans would love him. The Canucks sure took a shine to him last offseason, when he looked to be on his way to making the team out of training camp. Lamentably, his shoulder injury late in the preseason forced Alain Vigneault to begrudgingly return to Victor Oreskovich, the Janice to his Chandler, instead.
Pinizzotto is a fourth-line pest type, but he's got decent hands at the professional level and he's defensively reliable. I hate to use plus/minus to make the point, but he was a team-best plus-40 in his last full season in Hershey. Sure, over the course of a game, plus/minus is pretty much meaningless. But over the course of a season, if you're the best on your team in the category, that means something. In Pinizzotto's case, it means he has a pretty good chance to be part of a defensively sound, aggravating fourth line that coach Vigneault isn't afraid to use down the stretch.
As we know, according to folklore, if Vigneault allows the fourth line to emerge from their burrow on the first day of the playoffs, Vancouver fans get six more weeks of hockey. Ebbett and Pinizzotto should help to make this a possibility.Tags: andrew ebbett exists, ebbett, fourth line, Free Agency, Pinizzotto
i like both these signings. i like saying ebbett's name when he's on the ice(makes me feel like lou costello.) and i thought pinizzotto looked really smooth on the ice before he got hurt. to my untrained eye he easily looked the best of the 4th-line options. if he stays healthy pinizzotto makes the team out of training camp, says me and a shiny nickel.
and ebbett might get a few months as secondline centre. another nickel says av has less than five games' patience for schroeder. if no other centre is signed that gig falls to ebbett. nice insurance, indeed.
Ebbett can very adeptly fill the 3rd line centre position and maybe provide a fill-in for Kesler during his rehab time. Ebbett was playing very well last season before his injury and showed great hands.
The only knock against him – no surprise – is his relatively diminuitive size. Not really that big a deal I think but, of course, it's AV's opinion on that which really matters and I think we all know how AV feels about smaller guys. Too bad as I think that if Ebbett was given a real chance to play (i.e., more than a one week "try out" period of time) then he might show people that he can play. THe Canucks' "need" for a 3rd line centre might be right in front of them.
LOVED: "As we know, according to folklore, if Vigneault allows the fourth line to emerge from their burrow on the first day of the playoffs, Vancouver fans get six more weeks of hockey."
Hopefully, with Garrison's signing, assuming it's Ballard/Tanev as the 3rd pairing, AV will roll all three D pairings a bit more evenly, thereby keeping six defensemen relatively fresh, and more importantly healthy for the playoffs. If Pinizzotto can play as suggested by readers above, and we (pray oh pray) get a decent top-six forward in the inevitable Luongo trade. And, by some miracle, AV starts rolling all four forward lines, then the Canucks re-emerge again as a scary team to face. Hopefully, due to his slow re-signing, AV gets a bit of a wakeup call and manages to play an up-tempo style while utilizing *all* of his players.

Home | Oriental Rug Guide
We don't mean to be alarmist, but we sometimes see "silk" Oriental rugs that are made of something other than genuine, natural silk. This is not a problem if you know that the rug you are considering is made of artificial silk, but sometimes rug dealers neglect to pass on this information! The problem happens most often with just a few rug types sold in tourist markets in Turkey and India (and sometimes in Pakistan).

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Tee Off Golf is a surprisingly satisfying sleeper hit golf game for the Dreamcast from the folks at Bottom Up. Although it does not have the realism of lets say, the "Tiger Woods" series, it still holds up pretty well without real life professional golfers. The cartoon-like characters and overly obscure body models seem to work quite well with its overall loose and subtle comical tone. Tee Off never takes itself too seriously. For example, the quirky comments after a hole in one or when simply hitting the ball vary from character to character. Not only are the characters physically distinct from one another, but also have vocal distinctions. Each character has a special tone of voice that matches the characters age, and possibly social status. For example, Randy, has a brute voice that reflects his muscular appearance, but also has a gentle softness that finishes smoothly with each word of dialogue. The campaign allows the player to tour the world in five different locales: Japan, Australia, Africa, USA, and Scotland. Each course has a full eighteen hole set with plenty of opportunities for eagles, birdies, and hole-in-ones. The gameplay is very simple, which is a positive. Aim, hit the A button to place a set power percentage, then hit A again as close and as parallel as you can to match the accuracy bar. You can also spin the ball and choose different clubs, but the game defaults to a preferred club every time before a swing. Putting works the same way. Aside from the tour mode, there's free mode, and more interesting the Gate ball mode. It is essentially a futuristic croquet. Multiplayer in Tee Off works quite well. You are not required to use four separate controllers to play four player split screen, you can actually use one controller for two different human players. The first try for a golf game on the Dreamcast is a worthy effort. Character roster is large and has many unlockables including some hidden characters.
