Moments after the Missouri Comets' first practice Thursday morning at the Independence Events Center, coach Kim Roentved took a moment to look at the MISL team's empty playing field.
Moments after the Missouri Comets' first practice Thursday morning at the Independence Events Center, coach Kim Roentved took a moment to look at the MISL team's empty playing field.
"I haven't slept for two or three nights," said Roentved, whose Comets take on rival Wichita at 7:35 p.m. tonight at the Events Center in the opening game for both teams.
"I'm not nervous, we have as much talent as we have ever had on this team, I'm just anxious. I want to see the boys out on the field. It seems like we've been practicing forever and we're all ready to get the season under way."
For the third year in a row the Comets are kicking off the MISL season with a home-and-home weekend series against the Wings. After tonight's game, the Comets and Wings travel to Wichita for a 3:05 p.m. Sunday game at Hartman Arena.
"Talent can be misinterpreted," Roentved continued. "You can have talent, but in this game, you must have talent and skill. And I believe we have talent and skill. We have all six defenders back from last season, we will have some changes at the midfield and we are solid at the forward positions.
"And we are so strong in the goal with Danny (Waltman, a finalist for the league MVP last season) and Boris (Pardo). Boris is much improved and what can you say about Danny that hasn't been said? Danny is Danny."
The Comets and Wings faced each other six times last season. The two teams are once again playing for the Turnpike Trophy, sponsored by the tourism departments of Independence and Park City, Kan. The Comets own the trophy by winning the 2011 head-to-head series four games to two.
The Wings will have a familiar look to Comets fans as 2011 MISL MVP and former Comet standout Geison and Tiguinho will play in Wichita this season.
It was a busy offseason for Roentved and the Comets. A summer trip back home for Roentved led to the signing of two Danish forwards, Kevin Jorgensen and Mads Falck. Both players have extensive experience at the highest levels of European and international futsal and are excited to bring their skills to the MISL.
"It is a little different than Futsal, but Danny (Waltman), Brian (Harris) and the rest of the guys have really helped us to get adjusted," Jorgensen said. "We're really looking forward to playing in front of the home fans. They have already been very supportive and encouraging to us."
Waltman, who has emerged as the face of the Comets, can't wait to play in front of the hometown fans.
"I tested the free-agent waters in the offseason," Waltman said, "and when I looked at other teams, I found out that this is the only place I want to play. We have the best arena, the best fans, the best coaches – we've come so close the past three seasons and we all think this could be the year we get to the championship game.
Page 2 of 2 - "And there's no place I'd rather be than here in Independence, to share that with our fans."
Tickets in all price ranges are available for tonight's game. Call 855-KC-ARENA (522-7362) for more information.

No Direction Home: Bob Dylan
Obviously Martin Scorsese is one of the most accomplished filmmakers of his generation, now into his sixth decade with a fairly diverse body of work. He has his great masterpiece, Goodfellas, and his next tier of classics: Mean Streets, Raging Bull, Taxi Driver and maybe even The King of Comedy. All five of those are with his methody, then alter-ego, Robert De Niro; though not as extraordinary but still of note is his later Leonardo DiCaprio period. Interestingly, between all these films Scorsese has also unleashed many notable documentaries. After being one of many editors on Woodstock, he started with shorts, including a great bio/interview of a druggy hustler (who played the gun dealer in Taxi Driver) called American Boy: A Profile of Steven Prince. But since his feature-length docs have mostly been made for television (with subjects ranging from film history to the New York Review of Books to Elia Kazan), his best have been about music. From his first feature doc, the concert film The Last Waltz, through the mini-series The Blues to his more recent outstanding George Harrison: Living in the Material World, the guy proves he loves and understands the world of musicians. It's his respect for the little details and the big picture that make No Direction Home: Bob Dylan his true documentary masterpiece, and maybe secretly as great as anything he has directed (or at least right under Goodfellas).
Made for PBS' American Masters series (the source of so many brilliant documentaries of the last thirty years), the film clocks in at over 200 minutes and was shown in two parts. Instead of his famous, show-offy visual flair, more than anything else he has ever done, No Direction Home shows off his storytelling skills. All of the footage was shot before he came on board, so in some ways his role as director was really that of lead editor (though the actual editor job is credited to David Tedeschi, who later was promoted to co-director with Scorsese on his NY Review of Books doc, The 50 Year Argument). Besides the incredible plethora of material (film footage and music, much not even of Dylan), the great choice Scorsese made is that instead of an entire overview of Bob Dylan's life, he kept it small. After a quick run-through of Dylan's childhood in Minnesota, the film ONLY really details his New York years from 1961 when he first hit Greenwich Village, until his famous motorcycle accident in '66 (which let to a brief retirement and then a career reboot). But what an amazing five years that was. The film is also about the other music that was happening at the time that influenced Dylan (and which he would go on to influence) and really works as a history of folk music as well.Continue Reading
Stories We Tell
They say history belongs to the victors, and right or wrong, the person who tells the story gets to make up their own version of history. Actress and filmmaker Sarah Polley's brilliant (and frankly ingenious) documentary Stories We Tell uses fragments and pieces of memory to tell her own and her parents' story, but without giving away too much, there are many surprises and twists. With the opening narration by her father, actor Michael Polley (of the Canadian TV series Slings and Arrows), you think the film is through his eyes, but eventually you come to realize he may be reading from a text written by Sarah. He tells the story of his relationship with Sarah's mother Diane, also an actress (who passed away when Sarah was eleven), which fully comes to life, aided by wonderfully edited-in apparent home movies. But as other family members and family friends tell the same stories from different points of view, you also come to realize nothing is as it seems. Everyone has different memories and different points of view, some only coming in fragments. What starts out as a complicated tribute to an artistic family eventually becomes almost a mystery as major family bombs go off. In the end, Stories We Tell becomes one of the most gripping and unique personal documentaries ever made.
Growing up, everyone thought Diane was a "good time Charlie"--an attractive life-of-the-party, a loving free spirit--even though she had two young children from a previous marriage. Michael was a dynamic young British actor on stage, but off, more of an introvert. He was private and she was outwardly showy. Looking back, Michael is convinced Diane fell in love with the characters he played on stage, and was disappointed with who he really was. Nevertheless, the two got married and raised a family. But after some years the marriage grew stale, especially as Diane grew more frustrated with Michael's lack of career ambition. To both of their relief, Diane was offered a play in Montreal, while Michael stayed back in Toronto with the kids. After a long separation, the two were reunited and were able to rekindle the romance briefly, even having another child together, who turned out to be Sarah. After Diane's death from cancer, Michael fell into depression, but was forced to raise his little daughter alone. It's about at this point in the documentary that it starts to come out through different memories that Sarah must have been conceived while Diane was in Montreal and that dear old Michael might not be her biological father. And here Sarah begins to track down all the men who conceivably may have had an affair with her mother while she was away. And then the film takes a big new turn....Continue Reading
Eyes on the Prize
The greatest documentary series in PBS history (or television history, for that matter) does not belong to Ken Burns (though arguably he would easily place a couple in the top ten). It belongs to the 1987 production Eyes On the Prize. The term "television landmark" may get overused, but this story of America's mid-century Civil Rights Movement truly deserves that distinction. Produced for PBS by a little-known production company called Blackside Inc., the series can be broken down into two seasons: the original six episode masterpiece Eyes on the Prize: America's Civil Rights Years 1954-1965 and then its less earth-shattering but still relevant follow-up Eyes on the Prize II: America at the Racial Crossroads 1965-1985 with eight episodes in 1980. With no credited director, it feels it like it directed itself, as if the world needed it and it sprang up (though Blackside founder Henry Hampton is credited as Executive Producer). The film is made up with talking heads of witness and historians and an avalanche of archival and news footage. There have been a number of significant documentaries about the Civil Rights Movement, including two other PBS docs, Citizen King and Freedom Riders, as well as the Spike Lee directed 4 Little Girls, but Eyes on the Prize is the official starting point, the all-encompassing encyclopedia on the subject.
Though there was an accompanying Eyes on the Prize book, the more in depth paper version would be Taylor Branch's extra thick "America in the King Years" trilogy of histories. Like a book, Eyes on the Prize is made up of chapters (episodes) that unfold, building on each other and creating suspense and outrage. The first chapter, "Awakenings," is where the modern movement started with the Montgomery bus boycott (which in turn introduced the world to Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr.) and the murder of a young boy, Emmett Till, which stirred the conscious of so many. Episode Two, "Fighting Back," takes place after the Brown v. Board of Education decision and the battle of Southern school integration. Episode Three, "Ain't Scared Of Your Jails," details the student takeover of the movement with their creation of The Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the lunch counter sits-ins and the freedom rides. Episode Four, "No Easy Walk," sees King back in the leadership position as marches in Albany and Birmingham are finally met with the historic March on Washington. Episode Five, "Mississippi: Is This America?," focuses on activists trying to bring voting rights to the state; with the murder of the three civil rights workers and the assassination of Medgar Evers, peaceful activists are met with extreme violence. And finally "Bridge To Freedom," after King wins the Nobel Peace Prize, the fight moves to the streets of Selma and the back rooms of Washington, DC with the passage of the Voting Rights Act.Continue Reading
The Beguiled
In the strange mega-career of Clint Eastwood, no matter what your overall opinion of the guy is, it can't be argued that his choices have been fascinating. Before becoming the acclaimed and active old-man director of middle-of-the-road bores he is today, he was a huge super-duper action actor and in his heyday made some interesting zigs and zags (all from 1969-1973 when he made ten films).
Fresh off of Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Westerns, giving him international box office clout, he made the bizarre musical Paint Your Wagon (1969) with Lee Marvin. The same year Dirty Harry cemented him as America's premier tough guy, he directed the female stalker thriller Play Misty For Me (1971). He followed that up directing the completely awkward Breezy (1973) about a romance between senior citizen William Holden and a teenage flower child. Also in 1973 High Plains Drifter, which may be his greatest directing accomplishment, was released. Eastwood plays a drifter in the old west and the film opens with him raping a woman (of course, she ended up falling for him). Right in the middle of those crazy four years he made the oddest and maybe most psycosexual film of his career, The Beguiled, a sorta Gothic Civil War almost-ghosty story (in the sense that people are haunted by memories), about female lust. It's as if Louisa May Alcott's Little Women went on a Picnic at Hanging Rock.Continue Reading
Important in the evolution (or devolution) of Sylvester Stallone is Nighthawks. From '81, it falls in that post-Rocky burst when Sly was still considered a legitimate actor. Though Paradise Alley, F.I.S.T or Rocky II didn't threaten Hoffman or De Niro's place as America's top actor-laureates, Sly hadn't yet become the steroidy, sequely crap machine he would come to be known as (of course with some quality films like Rocky III, First Blood to come and later Cop Land, but with mostly junk between). Today Nighthawks feels like a gritty '70s cop film. (It was originally developed to be French Connection 3.) It's taut, strong but not overly muscular, and moves at a fast pace that you don't notice till it's over. Frankly, one of the most interesting aspects here is that Stallone in Serpico mode (bearded with longish hair) often wears glasses (big, clear disco-era glasses), which is something rarely seen in an action hero and symbolizes how the film was a leftover from the more character-driven film days (the glorious '70s) before guys like Schwarzenegger (and Sly) made them into total cartoons. Sly's cop even pines for his ex-wife (played by TV's Bionic Woman, Lindsay Wagner). The guy is vulnerable, not always successful and flawed. Nighthawks represents the end of an era, not just for Stallone but for the realistic action hero.
Actor Rutger Hauer made a name for himself on the international circuit from his work with director Paul Verhoeven in Turkish Delight, Soldier of Orange, Katie Tippel and Spetters. Nighthawks would be his first American film, though not his first English language one. (Earlier he had appeared in the British flick The Wilby Conspiracy.) Word from the set is that he and Stallone clashed. (More reason to love him!) Here the Dutchman plays a Euro terrorist known as Wulfgar who, after wearing out his welcome abroad, heads for the States. Meanwhile, New York street detectives Deke DaSilva (Stallone) and his partner Matthew Fox (Billy Dee Williams, fresh from The Empire Strikes Back introducing him to audiences outside of black '70s cinema, where he was already a superstar leading man) are being transferred from their play-by-their-own-rules undercover decoy work to a terrorist unit, which is already on the lookout for Wulfgar. Knowing he's a sucker for foxy dancing queens, in a subtly intense scene, the eagle-eyed Deke manages to spot Wulfgar through the crowd at a discotheque, despite him getting face-changing plastic surgery, which leads to an exciting Friedkin-esque foot chase through lower Manhattan. Wulfgar manages to finally escape with a nasty knife slash to Fox's face, making things personal now for Deke. And the cock-blocking Deke pulled makes things equally personal for Wulfgar. The one-upmanship eventually leads to an exciting highjacking showdown on the Roosevelt Island Tram and a crazy cross-dressing twist ending.Continue Reading
52 Pick-Up
Films that have a moral condemnation about the seedy underbelly of life but still try to offer up a little titillation along the way have been around since the beginning of cinema. Sleazeploitation, if you will. Think of all those sexy pre-Code films and then consider the gangster and later noir period when the arousing exploits of a hatcheck girl would be stymied by the censors, making sure we knew this was amoral behavior. By the '70s and Midnight Cowboy, the sex industry had become a full-fledged and often legal enterprise and shock was less easy. Sleazeploitation films often deal with an innocent seeing the seedy world that has been around him all this time (and usually in such sleaze capitals as New York or Los Angeles). It's most interesting when big name directors make these films; of course when guys like Brian De Palma (Body Double) or Paul Schrader (Hardcore) make films about such subject matter it's not shocking because they have a dark history in exploitation-ish cinema. That's what make one of the great sleazy thrillers of the '80s, 52 Pick-Up, all the more interesting. It was directed by the great John Frankenheimer, a guy who was an innovator in the early dawn of live television and by the '60s was a major director of classics The Birdman of Alcatraz, The Manchurian Candidate, Seconds and Seven Days in May. In the '70s he generally moved to straight but tasteful thrillers like French Connection II and Black Sunday, but he ended the decade on a sour note with the mutant bear horror dud Prophecy. The '80s meant mostly forgettable work for hire, including 52 Pick-Up, which in '86 was a box office bust and mostly written off by critics as trash--and I can sorta see why. But on a recent screening, I was struck with just how intense and exciting it actually is; this is a film that may have a cornball dated score and we may laugh at the clothes, but it actually ages well and deserves reexamination as a possibly important film by an important director.
If the name Frankenheimer wasn't enough to bring some class to 52 Pick-Up, consider this; it's based on a book by one of America's all-time great crime novelists, Elmore Leonard. At this point only his early Western novels had transferred well to film (3:10 to Yuma, Hombre). 52 Pick-Up had just been adapted into a film called The Ambassador with Robert Mitchum and Ellen Burstyn to little notice in '84, and the following year Burt Reynolds would star in the horrible Leonard adaptation Stick. It really wasn't until the '90s that Leonard adaptations would hit their zenith with the trifecta of Get Shorty, Out of Sight and Jackie Brown. For Frankenheimer, Leonard adapted the book himself (with John Steppling), changing the setting from his hometown of Detroit in the book to, of course, the more glamorously seedy Los Angeles.Continue Reading
The Seven-Per-Cent Solution
The opening title card of The Seven-Per-Cent Solution reads: "In 1891, Sherlock Holmes was missing and presumed dead for three years. This is the true story of that disappearance. Only the facts are made up."
This clever welcoming very much sums up the kitschy and revisionist way the story of literature's greatest detective is treated. One-time dance choreographer turned director Herbert Ross created a near-brand for himself in the '70s with his theatrical adaptations, with films like Funny Lady and Play It Again, Sam, and Neil Simon scripts including The Goodbye Girl, California Suite and The Sunshine Boys. But it is with this adaptation from the popular novel by Nicholas Meyer that Ross really gets to break away from his more stagebound roots, taking advantage of actual European locations and a very exciting cast to tell this tale of Holmes being treated by Sigmund Freud. (Later he would have success going back to his dancy roots with films like The Turning Point and Footloose.)Continue Reading
Foul Play
When I was ten years old I declared Foul Play to be the funniest movie ever made. Maybe now it's not quite as amazing as I thought it was then, but it's still pretty entertaining. After hitting gold with the scripts for Harold and Maude and Silver Streak, screenwriter Colin Higgins made his directorial debut with Foul Play. Like Silver Streak, Foul Play is a sorta romantic-comedy (slash) mystery-thriller hybrid. It both romanticizes the old style of Cary Grant and accepts the newer Saturday Night Live inspired raunch that has dominated American film comedies ever since. This was Goldie Hawn's peak years, coming off of Shampoo and just before her signature performance as Private Benjamin. In her mid thirties, she was still playing the big eyed pixie to perfection and she matched Chevy Chase, in his first lead role (he had played some bit parts in The Groove Tube earlier). The film is definitely a time-capsule of disparaging styles, jumping between slapstick sex comedy and violent Hitchcock spoof, there is more would-be suspense than comedy, but when the comedy works I can see why ten-year-old me got so excited.
The plot is some kind of murder mystery that has something to do with an assassination attempt on the Pope or something. It really doesn't matter. Goldie plays a beautiful San Francisco librarian, one of those unlikely lonely hearts who goes to see old movies by herself. Through a number of contrivances she ends up with a dead man as a date which puts her into a vast conspiracy including an albino hitman working for a corrupt Catholic church until bumbling cop Chevy Chase comes to her rescue. The two eventually put the case together (along with his trench-coated partner Brian Dennehy) and, of course, fall in love. And in-between their Charade-like pleasantries, there's Burgess Meredith as her wacky karate-chopping neighbor, Dudley Moore as a sex crazed swinger, Billy Barty as a dwarf door-to-door salesman, a laughing snake, opera, car chases, murders, and an Oscar-nominated theme song by Barry Manilow. I may sum this up shallowly, as if I'm poo-pooing, but it's actually with much affection.Continue Reading
After his death, Steve McQueen reached rebel-cool icon status based on his off-screen machismo (racing cars and motorcycles, martial arts with Bruce Lee, stealing Robert Evans' wife) and partly on his actual film resume, which in retrospect isn't as great as you would expect. His peak years start in '63 with his one masterpiece, The Great Escape (he did the overrated but still influential Western The Magnificent Seven a few years earlier), a couple of big hits that now feel more like remake-bait time capsules (The Thomas Crown Affair and The Cincinnati Kid), and of course there is also Bullitt, largely famous for its amazing high-speed San Francisco auto chases. But for the most part the late sixties were rounded out with forgotten melodramas (Love with the Proper Stranger, Baby the Rain Must Fall and The Sand Pebbles). The early seventies include a couple lesser collaborations with Sam Peckinpah (Junior Bonner and The Getaway) and the super cast/super dud The Towering Inferno. But besides appearing as himself in the Oscar-winning motorcycle documentary On Any Sunday, McQueen's best film since The Great Escape is the epic Papillon, a film that has been written off by some as overly long and cold. But for my money it's one of the best prison escape movies ever, as well as an eye-opening look at worlds I knew little about. (ALSO OF NOTE: I first saw it as a very young kid, in its second run at a drive-in, and there are some moments of violence that then confused me, but have stuck with me ever since.)
Based on the questionable autobiography of French petty criminal Henri "Papillon" Charrière, (played by the very American McQueen and shot in exotic locations all over the world) the script is credited to blacklisted legend Dalton Trumbo (Spartacus) and Lorenzo Semple Jr. (one of the creators of the '60s Batman TV series). The film begins in pre-WWII France with Papillon and other convicted criminals being marched through town and on to a boat to be shipped off to a French penal colony work camp. On the long and brutal ship ride, Papillon strikes a deal with a wealthy and rather famous forger, Louis Dega (Dustin Hoffman in full nebbish mode), for protection. With a promise to keep the meek embezzler alive, Dega will finance any escape attempts. Through the course of time, the two strike up an unlikely friendship (a prison adventure Midnight Cowboy). The film covers years in swampy, tough malaria-plagued conditions, finally ending on the infamous Devil's Island. The film is loaded with wonderful set pieces, including long and short escape attempts, a leper colony, sadistic guards, creepy prisoners, solitary confinements and lots of double crosses (even a nun stabs Papillon in the back). It's a survival saga and a friendship story, though the survival aspect is the highlight.Continue Reading
Purple Noon
Based on Patricia Highsmith's book The Talented Mr. Ripley (the first of her five Ripley novels known as the "Ripliad," she is also the author of the book that became Strangers on a Train), which of course was also filmed later by Anthony Minghella in '99, the French version Purple Noon (Plein Soleil) proves to be a much more entertaining ride. That's not to say that the American version isn't also very good. I like it a lot and I don't know which version is closer to Highsmith's book, but where Minghella tried to ring psychological complexity out of simplicity, often making it feel overstuffed, director René Clément (most famous for Forbidden Games from '52) goes for a more straightforward suntanned noir. And as much as I admired Matt Damon as Ripley, Clément's ace-in-the-hole is the young French superstar Alain Delon who doesn't wear his acting on his sleeve like Damon did--instead he just naturally oozes charisma, making the character less a super-geek psycho and more a smooth criminal.
The film starts right off with two American buddies (strangely, played by the French stars) living the cafe life in Italy. It's casually mentioned that the father of the rich one, Philippe Greenleaf (Maurice Ronet), has hired the other, Tom Ripley (Delon), to convince his party-boy son to return home to San Francisco (?!) and finally face his adult responsibilities. Of course, Minghella's Ripley starts in the States, with the setup played out on camera; score this to Purple Noon for cutting to the chase. None of Philippe's other rich friends care much for Tom, including his girlfriend Marge (Marie Laforêt) and his pal, Freddie Miles (Billy Kearns, an actor actually born in America, though most of his career was in French cinema. He's fine but the American version's Philip Seymour Hoffman steals the movie in the role). But the ever cruel Philippe enjoys having Tom around where he can pick on him and taunt his lack of sophistication. (Ronet is much more mean-spirited and less charming than Jude Law's take on Dickie). Ripley envies Philippe's lifestyle, his money, his clothes, his freedom and his relationship with Marge. The American version gives Ripley an obvious homosexual obsession with his idol. Here it's only lightly hinted at; Ripley's main obsession is more financial and materialistic. The French version does not linger on their relationship long enough to get into those matters, and by the end of the first act, Ripley has purposely killed Philippe in order to steal his money and even woo Marge. The murder in the American version is a fit of passion; here it's premeditated. The suspense comes in how he covers it up. It's on a boat and it's not easy. And the rest of the film is a cat and mouse game between Ripley and the police investigating the murder (and later Ripley is forced to kill Freddie), as Ripley pretends to be Philippe to keep the investigators and Marge off his trail.Continue Reading

Being away at college opens a totally new door of freedom, and with that newfound freedom, comes living with roommates.
While most live with people who are the same gender as themselves, others buck that trend and live with somebody of the opposite sex.
Though not the norm, living with someone of the opposite sex can have its advantages, but of course, it has drawbacks as well.
For a female, living with guys can provide an extra sense of security, as she knows that they are always around in case something bad were to happen.
Junior Kim Mangus is one of those young women who feels safe being the lone girl in a home with four total roommates.
I always feel safe in my apartment, Mangus said. Who is going to mess with a girl who has three guys watching her back?
When a group of girls live together, there can be a sense of competition and drama in the air, but guys tend to be more direct with how they feel in situations of tension and conflict.
It is so much easier living with a guy than a girl because there is less drama, sophomore Christie Dishner said. If they have a problem, they talk to you to your face and dont beat around the bush. They also give great, straight-forward guy advice.
But there are noticeable disadvantages for girls that live with guys, and the one that tops the list is the cleanliness of males.
They are certainly not as clean as I would like, Mangus said.
They can be smelly and messy, Dishner added.
Also, guys may not be as sensitive to a girl and understand how her emotions work when dealing with certain issues.
They dont understand why I get emotional and dont particularly care about sitting down and having deep, meaningful conversations a lot (of the time), Mangus said.
Making sure that the living room is reserved for a night for a girls night or a guys night is important so somebody doesnt walk in on something that they dont want to hear.
If you are having a girls night, make sure to tell him so he doesnt walk in on hearing a bunch of girls bashing guys, Dishner said.
It is also important that if differences divide you to take interest in one anothers interests to get along better and to hang out together as a group more often.
I have found that if I show an interest in things that they like, we get along better because I dont feel left out and they get excited that I am just showing an interest in something that they like, Mangus said.
There are unwritten rules for all roommates that are especially true when males and females live together, such as always knocking on bedroom doors before walking in and not engaging in sexual activities in common places. Plus, all parties may have to deal with suspicious significant others, that worry that their parner is living under the same roof with someone of the opposite sex.
Take these pros and cons into consideration when deciding whether or not to tackle the option of living with somebody of the opposite sex.

Hey everybody, I'm new to the gardening scene, but I love vegetables. I'm really looking for as much advice as I can get. I have a 10x20 piece of land that my buddy tilled for me. What should I plant that I might be able to handle, and how should I take care of it. Any advice is good advice. Thanks!

Because growth is both the essence and a key intended outcome of entrepreneurship (Sexton & Smilor, 1997), it is imperative to determine the relationships among strategies, competitive actions oriented to market timing, and financial performance in HGEFs. In fact, Gertz and Baptista (1995) argue that no company ever shrank to greatness. Thus, they suggest that the current fads of downsizing, restructuring, and reengineering must change. Only through growth can firms earn aboveaverage returns over the long term. Moreover, it seems that many large businesses are not growing, their profits are under pressure, and shareholders demands are greater than they were previously (Gertz & Baptista, 1995). Alternatively, some HGEFs are achieving significant success as reflected by financial performance. The purpose of this research has been to enhance our understanding of the variables contributing to this noteworthy success.
The results reported herein suggest that
both the LCS and the HQS can lead to higher positive returns for
HGEFs. However, our data also suggest that not many of
these firms are using a LCS; instead, most of them are employing
a HQS. Additionally, the results indicate that all new
product market entry competitive actions can be successful when
implemented effectively. First mover, early second mover,
and competitive parity actions all were positively related to
firms ROS. Because all of these competitive actions
are independent, it is interesting to note that they all can be
successful and are related to financial returns more strongly
than the HQS.
An interesting outcome from our research is that a TBS may be irrelevant for HGEFs. We found no relationship between the use of this strategy and firm performance. HGEFs tend to be small and agile. Because other entrepreneurial firms have similar characteristics, it may be difficult for HGEFs to gain advantage over their rivals with the TBS. Competitive entrepreneurial firms may imitate more easily the TBS (Barney, 1995). They may be able to gain an advantage over large firms, however, because these competitors tend to move more slowly as a result of bureaucratic structures and practices. If the TBS is largely irrelevant in HGEFs, its implementation (in terms of competitive actions used for entry to markets) is also likely to be irrelevant. As such, it is not surprising that the interactions examined with this strategy had no significant effect on performance.
The major surprise from this study may be the negative interaction effect between a HQS and the actions used to enter markets with new products. This finding could suggest that the HQS is not implemented consistently through new product introductions. Entrepreneurial firms may lack the managerial depth and robust resource base required to integrate first mover competitive actions with the HQS.
Alternatively, Sherman and Hitt (1996) argue that TQM systems often conflict with innovation. They suggest that many prior TQM researchers devalued innovation (e.g., Imai, 1986). Being first to market with an innovation may require a radically new product to be successful. However, most organizational changes that are designed primarily to improve various aspects of quality tend to be of an evolutionary or incremental nature (Sherman & Hitt, 1996). Obviously, innovation can also be incremental. This type of innovation fits best with a TQM system or program and a HQS. Alternatively, entrepreneurial firms are more likely to produce radical innovations because of their ability and focus.
Quality and innovation can be integrated, but doing so is not easy. Quality programs that support a HQS are linear in nature; however, many innovations, particularly radical ones, are nonlinear. As such, these two approaches may require different managerial mindsets, managerial styles, organizational cultures, and implementation strategies. It is important to note that our results show that both approaches, the HQS and first mover competitive actions, have independent positive effects on performance. However, the interaction of these variables is negative. This may be an important findingone warranting examination in future research studies.
Highquality products are often necessary to be competitive in domestic and global markets. However, the technological revolution and global competition call for an emphasis on innovation. Our research suggests the HGEFs can be innovative or can produce highquality products; but, they find difficulty in doing both while simultaneously achieving high performance. This may be because HGEFs have not developed the multiple core competencies that are perhaps required to implement the HQS as a first mover. It is particularly important that future research focus on how different strategies and market entry competitive actions should be implemented in HGEFs. However, our research suggests that HGEFs can employ a HQS or an innovation strategy that allows them to achieve competitive parity or be early or first in the market with new products and achieve strong positive financial returns. Thus, in summary, our study provides important implications for both future entrepreneurship research and for managerial practices in HGEFs.

OK, Who Dats, let's play a game of What If. You can play along Crimson Tiders. Ready, here goes:
What if, back in 2006, Nick Saban, then the coach of the Miami Dolphins, had signed Drew Brees as his quarterback? What if?
Saban and the Dolphins had first dibs on Brees. The Dolphins, like the Saints, were in the market for a veteran, free agent quarterback. Brees visited Miami before he visited New Orleans.
Every indication was that Brees would sign with the Dolphins if the offer came and the money was right. The Dolphins were the better team at the time. New Orleans was in a post-Katrina shambles. Sean Payton was a recently hired Saints coach with no head coaching experience.
Saban brought Brees here to visit, had his doctors look at Brees' torn-up shoulder that had been injured in the last game of the 2005 season.
Saban didn't like the report he got and opted for Daunte Culpepper yes, Daunte Culpepper who was coming off a knee injury.
The Saints had noted orthopedic surgeon James Andrews look at Brees' shoulder. Either the Saints had a better doctor or the Saints were better judges of Brees' sheer will to overcome the injury.
Brees told both teams, "I will come back better than ever."
Saints general manager Mickey Loomis and Payton believed him and offered a $60 million contract, just $10 million guaranteed modest money in today's NFL. Just hours after Culpepper signed with Miami, Brees signed with New Orleans. And the rest, as they say, is history.
New Orleans has its first Super Bowl and Brees is now, take your choice: St. Drew or Breesus.
Culpepper, meanwhile, played just four games for the Dolphins in a 6-10 2006 season and has since played for the lowly Raiders and Lions.
So, what if? What if Saban had signed Brees instead of Culpepper?
Well, here's my version of what if:
Brees would have posted the same kind of numbers at Miami that he has in New Orleans. The Dolphins would have won in 2006 and since. Saban would still be the coach in Miami and the Dolphins might have won this Super Bowl. Yeah, I know Saban says he prefers college football to the NFL. My guess is he would have liked the NFL a whole lot better with Drew Brees as his quarterback.
Alabama, without Saban, would not have won last season's national championship. The Saints would not have won a Super Bowl. I don't know who the Saints would have gotten for a quarterback but it would not have been anything close to Brees. Culpepper could have been the guy. I've always heard that Payton was having discussions with the Cowboys about Tony Romo, who had not yet become the Dallas starter. Remember, the Cowboys still had Drew Bledsoe who began the 2006 season as the starter. I doubt Jerry Jones would have let Romo go, but who knows?
Still, Romo or Brees? It's a no-brainer. Given Brees' numbers over four seasons and what happened here Sunday night, the Brees signing has to go down as the most important in NFL history. Reggie White? His signing with the Packers now ranks No. 2.
Given Brees' achievements, the Dolphins' decision to sign Culpepper instead of St. Drew must go down as one of the worst free agent signing blunders in pro football history.
Saints saw gamer
As bad as it sounds now, the signing of Culpepper, instead of Brees, wasn't so shocking back in 2006. Culpepper's knee had caused him to miss seven games with the Vikings in 2005. However, in 2004, Culpepper had thrown for 4,717 yards and 39 touchdowns.
The Saints looked at other numbers. They looked at victory numbers and saw where Brees had been a state championship quarterback in Texas, had led Purdue Purdue! to the Rose Bowl and had led the San Diego Chargers to 21 victories over the 2004-05 seasons. The Saints saw in Brees the character they could build a team around.
In return, Brees was just happy to be wanted. The Chargers had opted for young Philip Rivers over him. The Dolphins had opted for Daunte Culpepper. Brees jumped body and soul into the New Orleans rebuilding process not just football, but the city. He looked at the Saints quarterbacking position as more than a job. To him, it was a calling.
Said Brees at Monday morning's MVP press conference, "People asked me: 'Do you feel like you're carrying the weight of the city on your team's shoulders?' I said, 'No, not at all. We look at it as a responsibility.' Our city, our fans, gave us strength and we owe this to them. That's made all the difference. ... There's no people that you would want to win for more than the city of New Orleans. So it's an honor."
And who would Alabama have hired as a head coach with Saban winning big in Miami with Brees?
I don't know. The Tide was looking for a proven winner after Rich Rodriguez turned them down. I don't know. Perhaps, Houston Nutt?

Bremerton manhandles Foster again, 51-6
BREMERTON - Coming off a 9-2 season in 2012 that saw the Bremerton Knights win their first league title since 1993, it seems ridiculous to think the boys in blue and gold felt like they had something to prove.
But that's exactly the attitude they had when they took the field against the Foster Bulldogs Friday night at Memorial Stadium.
Bremerton took a 30-6 lead at halftime and went on to manhandle the team from Tukwila 51-6 in the opener for both teams. It was Bremerton's third win over Foster in as many seasons.
Junior running back Calvin Cardwell scored four touchdowns in his debut, running for 193 yards on 26 carries.
"I worked hard in the offseason, just doing what the coaches told me," Cardwell said, "and just listening to my upperclassmen and everyone else."
Cardwell was hoping to have a positive impact on the game, but even he couldn't predict his four TDs.
"No, I thought I would get some yards. I wasn't expecting (anything) like this."
Neither were the Bulldogs.
Foster, which went 2-7 last year (1-5 Seamount League) had no answer for the Knights' defense — especially a line that included Terrick Houston-Sims, who had a sack and fumble recovery, Skyler Mullins, Tim Riders, Christian Laumen and Keith Moore, who had a fumble recovery on Foster's opening possession.
The Knights certainly weren't perfect. Bremerton's first drive ended with an interception return for a touchdown on the third play by Foster's Anthony May on a pass from junior Connor Mahoney. Mahoney shrugged off the pick six and led the Knights on a 12-play, 74-yard drive on their ensuing possession. Bremerton capped the drive with Cardwell's first TD, a two-yard run. Mahoney finished with 97 yards on 7 of 12 passing and a TD.
"Connor's trying to make something happen," Bremerton coach Nate Gillam said. "He was great, he bounced right back."
The floodgates were open after that.
Buddy Gaines scored on an 8-yard run for a 14-6 lead after the first quarter and Cardwell added two more scores — 18 and 43-yard runs — before Michael Brown chipped in a 45-yard field goal before the half. Cardwell fumbled the ball on the 18-yarder while running into the end zone, but recovered it for the score.
"Yeah, I pulled a Shadle, I pulled a Shadle," he said referring to graduated senior Andrew Shadle, who had a similar score last year.
The 43-yard run nearly didn't happen if not for Cardwell being patient, finding a hole and juking a defender before racing for the end zone.
"I just hit my gap, saw a defender coming up, hit my cut and then near the end zone I had a good block from Buddy Gaines," he said.
Mahoney's first career TD came on a 22-yard pass to Gaines in the corner of the end zone for a 44-6 lead. Deboreae McClain finished the scoring on a 4-yard run with 5:20 left and start the mercy-rule running clock.
Cardwell said the Knights still have plenty of work to do — they'll watch game film Saturday — but he believes the first win was crucial especially for the sophomores and freshmen.
"We'll have them playing at our level," he said. "We have a lot to prove. We lost like 28-something seniors last year, all-stars, starters, MVPs of the team, everything."

Aretha Franklin in a clip from the documentary 'Muscle Shoals.' / Magnolia Pictures
Muscle Shoals is a place in Alabama, a sound that has influenced decades of rock and soul music and now, a documentary. Opening Friday at the Main Art Theatre in Royal Oak, Muscle Shoals explores the hit songs recorded in that town and the musicians who traveled from near and far to be part of the magic. It covers the history of FAME Studios and its founder, Rick Hall, as well as FAMEs legendary house band, the Swampers, who eventually formed their own Muscle Shoals Sound Studio. As home to moments of brilliance ranging from Percy Sledges When a Man Loves a Woman to Bob Segers Old Time Rock and Roll, Muscle Shoals has continued to fascinate contemporary stars like the Black Keys. Loaded with archival material and comments from Mick Jagger, Aretha Franklin and other greats, the movie will, like Muscle Shoals alum Mavis Staples promises, take you there.

Ciara & Future's Brand-New Baby Is Named Future — Really
Ciara let the world know about Blue Ivy's future playdate via Instagram, where she posted a photo of her son's hand with the caption "FUTURE ZAHIR WILBURN 9lbs 10oz May 19 2014." Little Future has little hands.
Naming their son Future is a bold move by the couple, who risk a number of potential mishaps in the not-too-distant...time from now. For instance, when the phone rings, and it's for Future, who picks up? What happens if father and son want to collaborate on a song one day? Could you imagine a song by Future featuring Future? Our heads would explode. Also, who gets the "Future" personalized license plate? Expect that discussion to make for some very awkward dinner conversations.
Thankfully, these questions don't have to be answered now. Let's allow the glowing new parents to enjoy their moment and worry about all that in the — you guessed it — future.

Microsoft YouthSpark is a new companywide initiative to create opportunities for 300 million youth through a range of global programs, delivered in partnership with governments, nonprofits and other businesses.
Microsoft today announced a new global initiative, Microsoft YouthSpark, that aims to create opportunities for 300 million youth in more than 100 countries during the next three years. This companywide initiative includes citizenship and other company programs — both new and enhanced — that empower youth to imagine and realizetheir full potential by connecting them with greater opportunities for education, employment and entrepreneurship.
Through Microsoft YouthSpark, the company will dedicate the majority of its cash contributions to nonprofits that serve the youth population around the world. In addition, Microsoft YouthSpark will include Office 365 for education, free technology tools for all teachers and students to power learning and collaboration, and Skype in the classroom, a free global community for teachers to connect their students with others around the world.
As part of the initiative, Microsoft is also launching a range of new citizenship programs:
Launching the new initiative, Microsoft Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer said, "Through Microsoft YouthSpark we are making a commitment to help 300 million young people around the world achieve their dreams by focusing our citizenship efforts and other company resources on connecting young people with opportunities for education, employment and entrepreneurship. We believe that working with our partners we can help empower young people to change their world, and we are committed to using our technology, talent, time and resources to do that."
The company's youth-focused philanthropy will be conducted in close collaboration with nonprofits around the world. These include worldwide organizations such as GlobalGiving Foundation, TakingITGlobal, Telecentre.org Foundation and the International Youth Foundation, as well as regional nonprofits such as Silatech in the Middle East, The Trust for Americas in Latin America, AIESEC International in Europe, and the ASEAN Foundation in Asia. In the United States, Microsoft is announcing its support of five national nonprofits: Boys & Girls Clubs of America, City Year, Junior Achievement USA, Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship and Year Up Inc.
"Our next generation of citizenship will focus on the next generation of people," said Brad Smith, executive vice president, Microsoft. "The global unemployment rate for workers younger than 25 is 12.7 percent, which is double the rate for the world as a whole. This is indicative of a growing opportunity divide between young people who have the access, skills and opportunities to be successful and those who do not. We must work together to close the opportunity divide for youth and help secure the future of this generation and the future of our global economy."
The International Youth Foundation Opportunity for Action report, published in March 2012, showed that nearly 75 million young people worldwide were unemployed in 2011. As the global youth population continues to grow — there are more than 2.2 billion people between the ages of 6 and 24 today — the opportunity divide is widening.
Microsoft YouthSpark goes beyond philanthropy and brings together a range of global programs that empower young people with access to technology and a better education and inspire young people to imagine the opportunities they have to realize their potential, including previously mentioned Office 365 for education and Skype in the classroom, as well as the following:
A full list of Microsoft YouthSpark programs can be found at the YouthSpark Hub.
