The 1980 election that brought Ronald Reagan to power also swept out a bloc of liberal champions -- George McGovern, Birch Bayh, Frank Church, Warren Magnuson, Gaylord Nelson, Jacob Javits -- who had spent a generation or more advancing progressive causes. The washout swept the ground from under the liberal wing of the Democratic Party, planting the seed that would grow into the idea that Democrats' path to power lies through the center. A generation of New Democratic centrism would follow, personified by Birch's son, Evan, who took the lesson to heart and ran far from his father's liberal legacy when he entered politics.
In 2010, a handful of House Democrats have an opportunity to prove that maxim wrong and to demonstrate that even in a tough year, by standing up for core progressive values, a Democrat can win a tough race.
Tom Perriello in Virginia, Carol Shea-Porter in New Hampshire, Alan Grayson in Florida, Mary Jo Kilroy in Ohio and John Hall in New York all represent swing districts and have cast votes that Washington consultants label "tough." Those tough votes, though, are paying off in unexpected ways: By bucking the conventional wisdom, the progressive Democrats have locked down support among their base and are winning over independents, while Blue Dogs face a dispirited electorate unsure what they stand for.
Having solid progressives in Congress does far more than give the party an extra vote. The effect they have on other members is hard to quantify but can have real results. Without Grayson, for instance, it's virtually certain that Congress wouldn't have approved a broad audit of the Federal Reserve -- over the objections of the administration.
If Grayson and other progressives are defeated in November, it sends a signal that standing up for progressive values is at best politically useless and at worst costs a politician at the polls. But if progressives survive, while Blue Dogs are wiped out, the opposite message will be sent: The path to victory requires standing for something.
Progressive groups have seized on the symbolic importance of these races. "As progressives, it's our job to show political incentive and genuine support for the folks who have not just led on the issues that matter to most Americans, but who have stood up to the corporate elites and their lobbyists who all too often run the show in Washington," said Ilyse Hogue of MoveOn.org, which is raising money to support Democrats it calls "progressive heroes." "If we don't, we'll lose more than just some races; we'll lose the core principle that democracy works best when elected representatives respond to the needs of their constituents and that organizing power can actually restore some balance to our corporate-tilted government."
MoveOn's effort to raise money for its progressive heroes pulled in pledges of a million dollars and 100,000 hours of volunteer time over a single day this week. Democracy for America, a progressive group whose roots stretch back to the Dean campaign, allowed million-plus members to vote on which candidates deserve the honor of full DFA support: Grayson and Sen. Barbara Boxer of California won.
"There's no 'enthusiasm gap' for Democrats who stand up and lead," said Jim Dean, chair of DFA. "That's why Alan Grayson and Barbara Boxer earned DFA's support. These Democrats don't back down when pressured by corporate lobbyists or attacked by Tea Party Republicans."
Darcy Burner, head of the Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC, said that "the backlash this year hasn't been against incumbents, and it hasn't been against Democrats: it's been against corporate sell-outs. Voters want representatives with actual values... But too many people in DC haven't gotten the message -- so we need to send it again."
The Progressive Change Campaign Committee, whose acronym PCCC sets it up as a liberal version of the DCCC, is raising money and providing infrastructure for progressive candidates. The PCCC and its lobbying arm the P Street Project work closely with progressive House members, using its donor base to encourage other Democrats in Congress to move in a progressive direction.
"The pundits will try to say that Democrats lost this year because they fought too hard for progressive policies, but the truth is Democrats focused too much on bipartisanship and were willing to water down reform so much that Obama voters aren't enthused to vote. That point will be proven if corporate-backed Blue Dogs lose but progressives can keep champions from swing districts like Alan Grayson in Congress," said Adam Green, a PCCC cofounder.
The GOP sees the symbolism, too. "When someone is seen as a progressive hero, it certainly makes victory especially sweet for conservatives," said Andy Sere, a spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC).
The labor movement is sending a clear message this election cycle to the lawmakers who have fought for its priorities -- and those who have abandoned them. The AFL-CIO, AFSCME, and SEIU are all mobilizing their members on behalf of progressive candidates, through direct mail, worksite targeting, and ads. "We think it's very important to stand up for who your friends are, which is the corollary with us holding people accountable," said AFL-CIO spokesman Eddie Vale. "So the same way that Blanche Lincoln sold out working families, and we would not support her. The flip side of that is that, if you're a progressive who stands up on the issues that are important to working families, we're going to go all out and make sure you're getting our support. Because you were there for us, we're going to be there for you."
The Republican approach to knocking out progressives is to make the case that they march in lockstep with Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. "Knocking off partisans like Kilroy and Shea-Porter remains a top priority not only because they are puppets for a Democratic leadership taking our country sharply left, but also because they represent areas that strongly oppose this reckless agenda. They don't realize that they aren't representing San Francisco, even though their voting records would suggest that, and that's why they're in trouble this fall," said NRCC spokesman Tory Mazzola.
But dubbing them puppets misses the fact that progressives are often a thorn in the leadership's side. They they have been far more independent than a standard Democrat, often pushing a more progressive agenda than the president. Perriello, for instance, voted against Wall Street reform, not because he's in the pockets of the bankers but because he argued it wasn't tough enough.
"To me, part of the reason not to play into the media's sense of right versus left is that it's just full of crap," said Perriello. "The real position in this country is really not even Republican versus Democratic, but corporate-backed politics versus people-backed politics. And to me, I'd much rather be trying to solve problems standing with the people than being just another person who's just playing along for the power... I think what you're seeing in the Democratic caucus is the push back against the Summers-Geithner consensus and say, 'You know what? This whole idea of everything being about Wall Street is missing significant parts of the economy."
Alan Grayson has wasted no time. The freshman representative from Orlando has quickly become one of the GOP's most despised Democrats and, not coincidentally, built a national base of progressive supporters that have his campaign coffers bursting at the seams. Grayson glories in the attack, whether it's dubbing Republicans "knuckle-dragging Neanderthals" or announcing from the House floor that their health care plan amounts to "die quickly" -- a flamboyant charge that had the effect of putting Republicans on the defensive after a summer of angry anti-health care town hall gatherings. Grayson's amendment to audit the Fed, which passed the House with the co-sponsorship of Ron Paul (R-Texas) and became law in a weakened form, could end up being one of the signature achievements of the 111th Congress, depending on how well it's carried out. He pushed the amendment through against the opposition of the White House, Treasury Department and Federal Reserve. Grayson shares the Orlando media market with freshman Suzanne Kosmas, a Democrat who has followed the Washington-consultant playbook and behaved as a centrist. For her trouble, she was rewarded by the local AFL-CIO by being shunned for her first vote against health care and by voters with distrust for her second vote in favor of it. Florida Blue Dog Allen Boyd also initially opposed health care reform and ultimately voted in favor of it; a GOP aide who has seen internal polls said that the flip-flop cost the pair dearly among Democrats and independents, many of whom say they can't trust them. "I think all three of those guys are gonna lose, but ironically enough, Grayson has the best chance of winning," said the aide, citing Grayson's feverish backing among supporters and his national fundraising base. But Grayson's outspokenness comes at a cost. "There is serious, serious vitriol among everyone who is not a fan of Alan Grayson," said the GOP aide, saying that more than 50 percent of those surveyed have a negative impression of Grayson, a number that is difficult to reach and makes winning a majority of voters a function of inspiring high turnout among supporters. Grayson is also up against a hostile local media. The Orlando Sentinel appears to be among that 50-plus percent with a negative opinion of the congressman. And with Grayson and Kosmas sharing a media market, opponents of both can get two for the price of one when investing in attack ads. The NRCC has reserved a million dollars of air time in Orlando targeting both Grayson and Kosmas, a person familiar with the ad buy told HuffPost. The good news for Grayson is that his negatives can hardly go much higher, no matter how much money is dumped into the district. And there will be plenty more: a political operation with ties to Mitt Romney, who is flush with corporate cash, called 60 Plus, is out with ads hitting Grayson and Kosmas on health care. The Koch brothers, through Americans For Prosperity, have also spent at least $200,000 in the district and will likely come in with much more. Grayson's support from individual donors is buttressed by MoveOn.org and Democracy For America. Grayson won a recent DFA online survey and was chosen by the group's million-plus members as the House incumbent most worthy of support. Money and volunteer work will flow from the victory. Grayson recently released a poll showing him up by 13 among registered voters, but the composition of the electorate will likely be skewed Republican, so the race is much tighter than that. The NRCC recently released a poll showing Kosmas trailing, but didn't release a Grayson poll. The Grayson campaign thinks that a poll was done, because several voters contacted the campaign to report that they'd been surveyed. That the poll wasn't released buyoed the hopes of the Grayson camp that it showed bad news for their opponent Daniel Webster. Both Democratic and Republican sources say internal polling shows a very close race. Andy Sere, a spokesman for the NRCC, said that it would be a special treat to knock off Grayson. "We're eager to defeat liberal Democrats and liberal Democrats pretending to be conservative Democrats alike, but when someone is seen as a progressive hero, it certainly makes victory especially sweet for conservatives," he said. "Alan Grayson is going to win because he tells the truth and fights for his constituents. Voters in Central Florida know that Alan Grayson is working for them, not corporate special interests. Thanks to People Power, Alan Grayson owes nothing to anyone but the voters," said his spokesman, Sam Drzymalas. A wild card for Grayson, and one the GOP is watching closely, is a Tea Party challenger running as a third party. While Grayson may not be able to win GOP votes, he may be able to elevate the Tea Party candidate enough to drain votes away from Webster.
John Hall is now known for being the Democratic congressman in New York's Republican-leaning 19th district, but at one time he was famous for being the front man for the group Orleans. He is a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and came out strongly against the Supreme Court's Citizen United decision, supporting the Fair Elections Now Act and introducing the Freedom From Foreign-Based Manipulation in American Elections Act. Hall and his challenger are relatively even, with the congressman reporting $504,100 cash on hand in the last quarterly filing and Hayworth reporting $562,555. He has backed raising the minimum wage, clean energy legislation, federal funding for stem cell research, and health care reform with a public option. So far, the race isn't attracting significant attention from outside groups. "There have been no independent expenditures to my knowledge, on either side," Hall Campaign Manager Patrick McGarrity told the Huffington Post. "It's certainly possible there will be some." The DCCC confirmed that it has paid media in this race. A GOP aide watching the race said that Hall seemed to be "asleep at the wheel" and the seat is a "great pick-up opportunity." It would seem hard to miss the drumbeat of warning signs that the seat is at risk, but, said the aide, "no one hears him knocking on doors, building a team, raising money." Hall's opponent Nan Hayworth, meanwhile, is a sophisticated campaigner whose fundraising abilities can be matched by her personal wealth. Her background as a doctor makes her a credible critic of health care reform. Unlike other GOP challengers, she has consolidated her base and is running on not just the GOP line, but the Conservative Party and Independence party lines as well, a huge boon in New York. Hall is also running on the Working Families Party line. The Cook Political Reporter recently moved the race to the "toss up" column, citing his lackluster fundraising and Hayworth's strong backing from the GOP base.
Mary Jo Kilroy is running for re-election in Ohio's 15th district, one of the most competitive districts in the country. Her opponent is Steve Stivers, a former bank lobbyist who is now raising a significant amount of money from the financial industry. The Columbis Dispatch calls it a "classic left-vs.-right fight," with Kilroy one of the few members in swing districts who "did not shy away from taking liberal positions on issues." She beat Stivers in 2008 by 2,311 votes (out of more than 300,000 cast), and this time, Stivers has "adopted a notably more conservative profile." Pelosi put Kilroy on the Financial Services Committee and despite the temptation to vote with banks on what's known as a "money committee," Kilroy was key to making financial reform legislation more progressive, pushing to rein in credit rating agencies and give institutional investors more say on executive compensation. She was one of two freshmen to win a spot on the influential Wall Street reform conference committee, where she often voted to toughen the package -- but she did cave at least once, casting the tie-breaking vote to exempt autodealers from oversight by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. She also backed the stimulus, climate change legislation, and health care reform, and was a strong supporter of the public option. Just days after Scott Brown won his Senate race in Massachusetts, throwing health care passage into doubt, Kilroy made the case for pressing forward. "I don't think health care is dead," Kilroy said. "If you can't go this way and that way, you need to find a third way to go.'" Kilroy pushed the Senate to use the reconciliation process to finish the job, which it ultimately did. "It's majority rule," she said. "It's a basic, small 'd' democratic principle. Reconciliation will help move a bill forward that will help improve health care for the maximum number of people possible. At the end of the day, we need to have a bill that will help lower the cost of health care, make it affordable and make it accessible." In the last quarterly filing, Kilroy reported $933,626 cash on hand. Stivers had $1.2 million. A Democratic strategist tells the Huffington Post that the DCCC is "completely engaged" in the race, despite a recent New York Times story stating the contrary. "They've reserved the last four weeks of TV time in this race, and they've already bought one of those weeks," he said. "So they're not leaving." On Sept. 7, DCCC Chair Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) sent out a fundraising solicitation for Kilroy. On the left, EMILY's List spokesperson Jess McIntosh said the race is a "major" priority, and the labor union AFSCME has invested about $150,000 over the coming week in TV ads. On the right, Americans for Prosperity reserved ad time for two weeks in August. The NRCC is also strongly committed to winning the seat, seeing it as a prime pick up opportunity, and has reserved air time. "She's an unabashed progressive," said one GOP aide working against her, saying that she "doesn't have a leg to stand on" when it comes to voters' deficit concerns. He said that while her strong progressivism may have ability to increase turnout among supporters, he guess that disenchantment with Obama among liberals may outweigh their support for Kilroy. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has endorsed Stivers, saying he is "an invaluable leader on important business issues." Internal polling by the Kilroy campaign show that it's a dead heat, with both Kilroy and Stivers at 41 percent. A poll by the conservative American Action Forum shows Kilroy within five points of her Republican opponent. A Democratic source who has seen a variety of internal polls says they have all either been within the margin of error or have Kilroy within five. A GOP source said the party's internal numbers have shown Kilroy trailing by between five and 10 points.
Tom Perriello represents the fifth district of Virginia, which covers Charlottesville and rural parts south. By rights, it's a Republican district, but Perriello snatched it in 2008 thanks to a tireless progressive-populist campaign and with the help of first-time Obama voters. The test for Perriello this time is to see if he can do it on his own. His strategy has been to vote his conscience and explain clearly why did so, face-to-face with every single constituent, if he has to. Perriello's known for his long hours and frequent town hall gatherings that last until every question has been answered, hoping that voters who disagree with him on politics will respect his principled stands. Perriello is trying to define the campaign not as Democrat versus Republican, or left versus right, but corporate establishment versus the people. Republicans, meanwhile, are slamming him for supporting the stimulus, health care reform and the House cap-and-trade bill. "If you see the primary votes as being health care and energy, you're going to define this election one way. If you see it as who stood with the Paulson-Geithner consensus versus who's been challenging it, there are pretty much no Republicans who have and a small number of Democrats who have," he said, referring to Bush's Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson and Obama's Tim Geithner. Perriello has called for Geithner's resignation. "So I think that people that now kme in my district, even conservatives and libertarians, see me as standing against the system itself. But you have to remember that these interest groups started spending well over a million dollars two weeks after I got sworn in." The Chamber of Commerce has been running ads against Perriello since 2009, as has the Koch-funded Americans for Prosperity. Several negative ads have been taken off the air for pushing false information. The bright spot for Perriello is that additional negative ads at this point would be hard pressed to move attitudes further negative than they already are, and Perriello has a deep war chest, sitting on $1.7 million compared to Bob Hurt's $200,00, according to the latest filings. (Hurt had to spend to win a June primary and his next FEC report will no doubt show a significant boost in funds. The district is a cheap one to run in, and Hurt will have plenty of independent corporate money backing his candidacy.) SurveyUSA has published polls showing Perriello down by insane amounts, but both Democrats and Republicans watching the race dismiss the numbers. After a New York Times story suggested the DCCC might cut Perriello off, he and Chairman Chris Van Hollen spoke and the DCCC released an internal survey showing him within two. A GOP source says their internal polls are much closer to the DCCC's than SurveyUSA's. "A good chunk of the district likes him and he gets credit for working hard...He'd be down by further if he didn't work as hard as he did," said one GOP operative, who thinks Perriello will still be overwhelmed by anger at the president, the economy and his progressive voting record. If Perriello survives this term, he could prove to be dangerous. "If we didn't beat him this cycle, depending on how it looks after redistricting, it'd be tough [to beat him in the future]. You're always most vulnerable after your first election," said the GOP aide. "This is bad timing for him." The only thing making the race close is Perriello's ability to inspire support among the progressives in his district, where a strong volunteer army is knocking on doors throughout the 22 counties he represents. "I've seen worse numbers for Democrats," said the aide. "Allen Boyd and Suzanne Kosmas, there is a lot of crossover hatred of them--a significant chunk of Democrats are upset with them. At least with Perriello, he holds his base and left-leaning independents." Perriello said that's because he stands for something. "There's a whole clan of hide-and-seek Republicans who are hiding from any positions or interviews and seeking higher office, and [State] Senator Hurt is certainly one of those. To me it's a cowardly strategy. It may be a smart strategy, but it's certainly spineless," he said.
In 2006, Carol Shea-Porter upset Republican incumbent Jeb Bradley without a nickel from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee or the Democratic National Committee. Her surprise victory made her the first congresswoman from New Hampshire. She fought off Bradley in a rematch in 2008. Elected and re-elected in progressive election cycles, Shea-Porter hasn't succumbed to pressure to move to the center, focusing intensely on constituent service and articulating the principles that underlie her votes. Shea-Porter is known as one of the hardest workers in the House, a thread that connects her to Grayson and Perriello, who also work overtime to respond to constituent requests, a key to winning support from voters who may disagree politically. "I have told people who have criticized my votes that, while I respect our differences, I didn't come to Washington to just warm a seat," Shea-Porter told the Huffington Post. "And I believe they understand that. They know that even if they disagree with me, I am voting that way because I believe it's the right vote." Bradley isn't making another run this time, but Tuesday's GOP primary will be critical. A Democratic source who's seen internal polls says that Shea-Porter is leading slightly against both leading Republican candidates, Sean Mahoney and Frank Guinta, but has a bigger lead over Guinta. Mahoney, an attractive, rational-sounding conservative businessman would likely present a larger challenge. And with Guinta, there's that whole bar-room brawl thing. A GOP source said that Republicans are waiting until a victor emerges from the race to begin polling. EMILY's List spokeswoman Jess McIntosh says that Kilroy and Shea-Porter are "both major priorities for us." Look for the well-funded Democratic advocacy group to swing hard for Shea-Porter. Democrats expect corporate money to flow into her race, which is being run in the expensive Boston TV market. That makes the decision of how strongly to back Shea-Porter a difficult one for national Democrats, considering the expense. She has raised roughly a million dollars so far this cycle and is sitting on more than half a million. She'll need several times that to combat the corporate and national money that'll be targeting her. The NRCC has reserved air time to oppose her. Mahoney and Guinta have both raised and spent roughly a million dollars so far. Like in all swing districts, much will depend on turnout. "They are unabashed progressives," said a GOP operative of Shea-Porter and Kilroy. "Do they get points for it? The only way to measure it is if turnout's a fraction or two higher in Ohio or [New Hampshire's] Sea Coast, but to be honest, I don't think that's going to be there. I think their base is so frustrated with Obama they may not come out."

Mayor David Roefaro gave his third State of the City speech Tuesday morning at the Radisson Hotel-Utica Centre.
For Mayor David Roefaro, Utica's glass is half full, not half empty.
While it has been difficult managing a city during a recession, the mayor said during his State of the City speech Tuesday that a number of projects are being completed or are on the near-horizon.
Roefaro cited the block being redeveloped on Bleecker Street, the various downtown buildings helped by the Restore New York grants received last year, the Harza Building and the former Knights of Columbus building.
"An economic recovery is in process for this city," he said. The mayor credited his own efforts for placing Utica "back on track for propelling a regional recovery."
About 180 people gathered at the Radisson Hotel-Utica Centre for an introductory video and Roefaro's annual speech.
Downtown is key to recovery, he said. He pointed to the long-awaited downtown parking garage, formally called a Multi-Modal Center, on which construction is expected to begin this year. He also cited the redevelopment of a nearby Bleecker Street block.
And the Harza Building on Genesee Street will likely be in private hands for the first time in years when it closes in late May, he said.
Meanwhile, $2.1 million in Restore New York state grant money is set to bolster the owners of several downtown buildings, including Black River Systems, Pizza Classic and the Winston Building, he said.
Roefaro has about a year-and-a-half left in his first term, and used the speech to bolster his message of progress in the face of adversity.
His administration has been hit with criticism over high-profile controversies such as the appointment and later resignation of Daniel LaBella as police chief, inaction toward Controlled Waste Systems Inc. on Belle Avenue and the recent investigation into GroWest Inc.
But the mayor has routinely dismissed such controversies as overshadowing the positive steps he has taken. And on Tuesday, surrounded by family, supporters and colleagues, he was channeling unabashed optimism.
"We're in this together," he told the crowd, as he concluded his speech. "I can't do it alone. And I can't do it without you."
Council President William Morehouse said the mayor's speech "touched on the good things he's done."
"Unfortunately, there have been a couple instances where the press has been able to have a field day," Morehouse said. "But it shows how much he's done economic development-wise, and I hope people are paying attention."
Unlike many of those in attendance, Utica resident Eva Sarsfield said she didn't make her way to the Radisson's grand ballroom Tuesday morning because she was a friend or employee of Roefaro's.
Page 2 of 2 - Sarsfield, who just opened a business called Economic Virtual Applications out of her home, praised Roefaro's focus on refugee relations and was generally impressed.
"I thought it was a very well put-together speech," she said.
Assemblywoman RoAnn Destito, D-Rome, sent a statement abut the speech Tuesday that mentioned her part in helping obtain the parking garage and Restore New York funding.
"Utica is in the midst of hard times, but despite that, I am confident that under his leadership, Utica will have a bright future," she said.
In his own words
Utica Mayor David Roefaro's third State of the City speech on Tuesday, titled "The Recovery Ahead," covered a range of topics. Some of his points:
His pending master plan
"Nearly 50 years overdue, the plan soon to be implemented will become a vision for our future for growth and development in the city," he said.
Roefaro cautioned the master plan, a campaign promise of his in 2007, isn't a solve-all. But he said its guidance will prove valuable.
"The days of taking something and throwing it at the wall is over," he said.
Reuse of old buildings
Roefaro announced that Cornell University's Rust to Green project will be given space to operate in the New Century Building downtown on Genesee Street as it studies the city's potential for using its assets for a rebirth.
"The New Century Building was inherited by the city many years ago and has continued to decline," Roefaro said. "It will become "the headquarters of my administration's mission to take Utica from Rust to Green."
Working with newcomers
"The diversity in this city is something that is paramount in my administration," Roefaro said. "We are finding that it is very rewarding to gain the trust of people whose first impressions of America are the community of Utica, New York."

A source told Jon Wilner of the Bay Area News Group that San Jose State's Mike MacIntyre interviewed with Cal last Friday.
Here's our updated story.
A source told Jon Wilner of the Bay Area News Group that San Jose State's Mike MacIntyre interviewed with Cal last Friday.
Here's our updated story.
In klines name, amen.
Based on his comments he doesn't seem too interested in leaving SJSU. Then again he can't just come out and say he wants the job.
Oh, I think McIntyre would take the CAL job if offered. Definitely a move up from SJS. However, CAL would probably also be a way-stop on his journey back to the SEC. One thing Tedford did was bring stability. That's as important as winning. I think "the guy" might be Dykes, though. Won't be Petersen.
Why not Peterson? Do you know him personally? The longer this goes, the better chance we land CP IMO.
Another no name being interviewed…
And the list goes on and on and on.
Any coach who can turn an apathetic commuter school into a winner like MacIntyre did with SJS is number one in my book. Does anyone doubt that San Jose State would have cleaned Cal's clock if they had played this season?
But then again maybe Sandy is waiting for Ron Rivera to get canned.
As do you go on and on, another no name comment after promising to go away, just like USC's national championship. Oh yeah, just like Barkley's Heisman trophy. Oh yeah, just like USC's top 25 ranking. The largest free fall to the abyss for a projected BCS championship winner. But why are we telling you this. You didn't go to USC, you didn't play there, you've never played football anywhere and never had pads on. USC is ripe for you to troll them. You are the loneliest jock sniffer in history.Oh yeah, you have never worn a jock strap before either. Beat it.
Great news!
Hey Cheeto Kid, speaking of interviews have you gotten a job yet? "Daddy" will not stop his binge drinking until you make something out of your life. To quote Dean Vernon Wormer from Animal House, "Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life".
Ray Finkle Says:
December 5th, 2012 at 7:39 am
Why not Peterson? Do you know him personally? The longer this goes, the better chance we land CP IMO.
Dreaming is a good thing, but reality is better. Petersen would be great, but has already turned down better gigs in the country. I don't really get this idolatry anyway. Petersen is just one of many good coaches in NCAA football. He's got many victories, but as someone pointed out yesterday, he may not fit well into the PAC 12. MacIntyre is realistic and probably gettable. Petersen has already shown many programs that he is not. Conceivably, he might take the Oregon spot if Kelly leaves. CAL ain't Oregon. That's reality.
Here is another name to add to your list of no names.
Mario Cristobal just got canned at FIU.
And stop with the thinking that Pete Carroll could be interested. My source in Seattle said "No way" and it is "laughable" even to give it legs.
The truth is no self respecting big name coach is interested in your program. Can you imagine trying to sell it.
NoPac10 or Pac 12 conference championshipU
$320 million in debt service
Second to the worst APR in the conference
9 straight losses to USC
Multiple Blowout losses to Oregon, USC, Stanford, Utah
Minus 7 yards rushing against your rival
Outdone by your rival 3 straight years in a row and 4 out of 5
MoreNCsarecoming Says:
December 5th, 2012 at 7:58 am
Another no name being interviewed…
And the list goes on and on and on.
SC thoroughly s ucked this year and Trojan fans had better hope that Kiffin gets the door soon. Program looks like it's only headed down with him. (Remember all that nonsense before the season began? He was already counting his chickens. Idiot.)
MoreNCsarecoming Says:
December 5th, 2012 at 8:30 am And stop with the thinking that Pete Carroll could be interested. My source in Seattle said "No way" and it is "laughable" even to give it leg.
Pete Carroll was broke down when he left SC with problems he created. Sterling character and a bad coach. If anything is "laughable" it's the CAL would want the scumbag.
Whoa…Wilner is right about something?
"Loser: USC. As I noted in a Pac-12-specific post: For the Trojans, with all their expectations, the Sun Bowl vs. Georgia Tech (6-7) is worse than being ineligible."
MoreNCsarecoming Says:
December 5th, 2012 at 8:30 am
Hey, man, reading your stuff, I see how you, Kiffin and Carroll all fit together. What a crew. Good luck with being an SC fan.
"Loser: USC. As I noted in a Pac-12-specific post: For the Trojans, with all their expectations, the Sun Bowl vs. Georgia Tech (6-7) is worse than being ineligible."
Hey Losers
I will make you a bet.
I bet that neither Peterson, Diako, Strong or Carroll will come to UC East Bay to coach your pathetic football team.
When 5 of you on this board bet against my bet, I will leave this board for good if I am wrong just as long as the 5 of you who take me up on this bet will leave if your bet is wrong.
Do we have a deal?
All I need to see is 5 of you agree by replying +1 in a post.
Any of you willing to put it up or am I right in saying you all are a bunch of blowhards.
"Blowhard." That's pretty ironic. First of all, I guess you don't read. Strong is No. 1 targeted candidate for TN and will likely go there. Carroll is unwanted by anybody with half a brain: he drags scandal with him and, unlike USC, Cal doesn't want that. Nor would it want Kiffin, were Kiffin available. Kind of dreggy. That leaves Petersen (unrealistic) and Diaco has been strongly linked to BC. So there's really no bet here. But hey, why don't you just leave the board anyway? Or do you want to bet you can't do that? Of course, I bet you can't.
You already promised to leave. Several times. We don't care if you leave or not. Just shut up. Actually, learn to spell first. Then shove off.
Dude…your coach is Lane Kiffen…and you're TRYING to make fun of our situation? You're stuck with a coach who had all the talent in the world and your team wasn't very good. Good luck with all that!
Hey Cheeto Kid you still haven't answered my question, have you found a job yet? Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life!
George, if Kelly leaves Oregon, they would promote the OC. Why would they hire Peterson and totally change the system that they run there. I just don't see that happening. CP is a NOCAL guy, and now is a perfect time to leave Boise with the whole Big East fiasco. CAL is one of the TOP jobs in America, and that is the reality. Great place to live, great school, great facilities and stadium, and they play in a top conference. Don't sell CAL short.
Who mentioned that Cal is interested in Carroll? They wouldn't touch him with a ten foot poll, given the indiscretions he was a part of at USC. Anyway, he probably couldn't win anywhere other than USC since other schools don't throw around money to get their athletes in violation of the rules like USC does. USC is just about dollar signs. Period.
Sandy be sneaky!
#23 GoBears, if anyone mentioned petey here, you can be sure it was moron using one it's innumerable sn aliases.
JF, great work$
Sc troll
Obsess much about California, LOL!!!
It's all bad for you and going to get much worse for a while.
Can't wait!
Go Bears
Who really is a "no-name coach?" Need I remind you that PC was U$C's 4th or 5th choice at the time of his hiring? He was a broken-down failed ex-NFL coach at the time who was only hired after Mike Riley, et al turned the school down. A ton of uproar in South Central at the time of the hiring. All great coaches start as "no-namers" at some lower division school and nobody is born into being the head coach or a top flight coordinator in the SEC.
That being said, I second the view of those on here who do not want Sonny Dykes. I do not want Cal playing what is essentially a 60 pass per game, minimal running, no defense style of ball. I doubt his preferred style will change coming here, although Brian Kelly did change his mode of play going to ND from Cincy. Big decision from SB…if she aims low and doesn't have winning as her top priority, her ass needs to go. It probably should anyway at this point.
Anyone have a rivals account ? Theyre claiming sandys madr a choice and they know who.
Anybody but dykes
You forgot to sign off properly, Juancho.
In klines name, amen.
Just spoke to Cal AD Sandy Barbour. Said she expects to name new football coach by next week.
Juancho sounds like a ripoff to me, you can find out for $99.00 a year.
Just as I figured.
There isn't a single poster with any guts to take me up on my bet.
This board is a waste.
The one thing I don't want Sandy to do is to hire Lane Kiffin 2.0. Though I'm not sure anyone else is capable of wasting that much talent LOL
Just as I figured.
There isn't a single poster with any guts to take me up on my bet.
This board is a waste.
Dude, there is no bet possible. I'd take it up if it was possible, but it isn't. If you think your bet was, you ARE a moron.
I bet that the mother of an $C fan on this board wishes that she got an abortion. George Watson, want to take me up on this bet?
If this board is a waste, if the posters here are pathetic, if Cal's football program is doomed to being a perennial cellar dweller, then there really is no reason for you to be here, is there? But, as we all know, you have been trolling here for 10 years and running, and despite numerous 'threats' to leave, you are still here, still posting the same, snarky, repetitive and completely unimaginative trashy comments. So, what does that say about you, moron? It says you are a total LOSER!!!!!

Retail Marketers are catching on to online video
According to LiveRail, 18-to-24-year-old social network users are spending more time watching online video than ever.
Yorkdale Shopping Centre in Toronto, ON is capitalizing on this trend. Yorkdale's retail marketing management recognizes that online video is hot, especially with young people.
Dotfusion Interactive began testing online video by embedding YouTube videos onto its clients sites. First with Square One Shopping Centre in Mississauga, Ontario Canada and now on yorkdale.com with Yorkdale's Spring Fashions tv fashion show appearnce. Of all views, just over 50% coming from the 13 – 17 age group and 20% from 35 – 44 segment!
In December, sister shopping centre to Yorkdale, Square One Shopping Centre experienced over 2,000 hits to its online video presentation of its beautiful Christmas light show truly paving the way for retail marketers to re-think how it advertises its shopping experience.

We've been told for years that it was Hollywood and France we should be outraged aboutand now, it turns out, it's Hollywood and France that we're outraged about.
The thing is, this time we actually should be.
Let's be honest. Your outrage about Roman Polanski is only marginally to do with Polanski himself or even his long-ago crime.
I mean, he's been on the very public and five-star-luxury lam for 31 years, and I'm guessing that most of us — over those 31 long years — haven't given Polanski's status two minutes of thought, even when he was winning an Oscar.
The real outrage is with Polanski's Hollywood friends, assorted apologists and, of course, certain parts of France.
The real outrage is that anyone — see: above — would be outraged that Polanski was arrested in Switzerland or that Los Angeles officials want to bring him back to justice.
Woody Allen (not exactly the best character reference in this instance) and Martin Scorsese are among the directors who have signed a petition calling for his release. Debra Winger has issued a statement. L.A. Times columnist Patrick Goldstein compares his story to Jean Valjean's in "Les Miserables." Washington Post columnist Anne Applebaum blogs that his arrest is "outrageous."
A French minister goes further and calls it "sinister," although apparently many people in France are outraged that the minister is outraged, meaning you may not want to break out the freedom fries just yet. Of course, Polanski was born in France, ran to France, lives in Paris and calls French fries "pommes frites."
OK, there are his defenders. And then there are the rest of us, who say, uh, yeah, but he raped a 13-year-old child. The 13-year-old child was at a Hollywood photo shoot, and, according to the grand jury testimony, was plied with alcohol and Quaaludes as she climbed into a hot tub. The testimony from the victim is that Polan ski forced her to have sex.
Polanski thought he had a deal when he pleaded guilty to having had "unlawful sex with a minor" — a deal that would have let him go after 42 days of time served — only to hear word that the judge was going to put him away instead.
And so he ran. And for 31 years, he ran in, let's say, comfort — and then was arrested, to everyone's shock, at a film festival.
You can write your own moral. He's a brilliant director, who gave us "Chinatown" and "Rosemary's Baby." But if there's anything to be learned, it's that you trust the art and not the artist.
And yet, Whoopi Goldberg — an artist, I guess — goes on "The View" and pleads Polanski's case, saying that whatever happened that long- ago night, she's sure it wasn't "rape- rape."
Here's Whoopi's testimony: "He pled guilty to having sex with a minor, and he went to jail, and when they let him out (on bail, pending sentencing), he said: 'You know what, this guy's going to give me 100 years in jail. I'm not staying.' And that's why he left.
"So that's why I wanted to be really clear because I want to know exactly what I'm talking about."
And here's what I'm talking about: Sex with a 13-year-old when you're in your mid-40s — and sex that was likely forced — is not rape-rape, it's rape-rape-rape-rape-rape.
Polanski's victim, we hear, wants the case put to rest. And who can blame her? But as Washington Post columnist Gene Robinson put it, it's not the 45-year-old woman's feelings we're protecting but the 13-year- old girl's. She said in her testimony back then that she was too afraid to fight back.
There have been questions raised about the judge in the Polanski case. There are questions about judicial impropriety. These are questions that could have been settled judicially, particularly when you're a Roman Polanski and you have access to lawyers who attract big Hollywood retainers. Instead, he ran.
Not that it's a simple matter to know what to do when ghosts reappear or, for that matter, the difference between vengeance and justice. And it's true, certainly, that Polanski has ghosts aplenty. His mother died in the Holocaust. He survived a Polish ghetto. His wife, Sharon Tate, was killed in the Manson murders.
You can make the argument that it makes little sense for California, all these years later, to spend the time and money to go after Polanski. What's the point of being outraged now? Polanski is 76 years old and not likely to be a threat to anyone.
The answer comes from Polanski himself. The movie is "Chinatown," one of my all-time favorites, the great '70s noir classic he directed.
I won't give away too much of the plot — you should rent it, if you haven't seen it — but the movie closes with the only justice being a rich man's justice.
Jack Nicholson, who plays the private eye Jake Gittes, walks away downcast at movie's end. His friend tells him, "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown."
And so it was. But that doesn't mean it always has to be.

come 'on Hawaii MOMS! let's save some $$. Here's some deals I checked out for 10/23. Got some tips for me?
*Buy 2 boxes of Arm & Hammer baking soda and get a free yrs. subscription to Better Homes & Gardens!
*@ Times, look for coupon attached to 2L Soda. Buy 2, 2L any variety Pepsi and hamburger and get $1.00 off purchase. Soda on sale now for 2/$3.
*Safeway C&H sugar 5#. Club card special, $2.00. Use mfg. coupon, $.50/1. Get that bag of sugar for only $1.50. Checked C&H site, since sugar doesn't harbor microbial growth, it has a long shelf life. Just keep it dry, put it in a ziplock and out of humidity.
*Note: if you live in Oahu, (not me ), you can sign up for price matching at Safeway. Sign up for a card, sign in and register at Just 4 U, and get those deals.
*Sign up for CVS extra care card! They have $$ coupons that you can stack. A few months ago, I used a $8.50 and a $1.00 coupon together to get my daughter the more pricey makeup for $2. BTW, you can use coupons on sale items too.

I'm a coupon newbie. It's not easy but I am getting something going. My current hurrah deal, through couponing: Safeway sale ragu pasta sauce, 2/$3. That makes it $1.50 each. I used 2 mfg. coupon for $1.50/2. Sale also stated 2 free boxes of pasta when you buy 4 ragu. Ragu $1.50 x 4 = $6.00, coupons, $1.50 x 2=<$3.00>, and 2 boxes of free pasta that sells for regular $2.59. My math isn't that great but it breaks down to each bottle of ragu for 75 cents and 2 boxes of free pasta. Savings off of regular price: $20.16. I paid only $3.00 for everything. Hope this gives some inspiration to some.

Our Art Deco District Hotel
Our Art Deco District Hotel
Miami Beach Hotel in The Historic Art Deco District
With its own "Little Broadway" in the 1920s, Miami became a center for the Art Deco movement in the '30s and '40s. It thrived as a military base in World War II and has since grown to be both a Latin American center and a sleek metropolitan community.
Each area has its own distinct flavor and style. If you are inclined to sightsee, South Beach's Miami Art Deco Historic District contains more than 800 buildings in this distinct architectural style. Built in the 1930's, it contains a few dozen hotels and apartment buildings that are excellent examples of pre-war modernism with characteristic rounded corners and geometric ornamentation. The highlight of the district is the strip of hotels along Ocean Drive between 5th and 15th street.
Almost all of the original buildings have been meticulously restored and painted in a colorful array of pastels. Known familiarly as "SoBe," the area is now the chicest place to be in all of Miami, which coined its nickname "America's Riviera."
Art Deco Weekend Festival
Every January in the Art Deco District, the the Miami Design Preservation League hosts the Art Deco Weekend Festival, an event that raises awareness and appreciation of the arts and culture of the Art Deco era. This three-day event originated in 1976 and features more than 85 events including guided tours, lectures, a film series, antiques and art vendors, live music, theatrical and dance performances, classic cars and lots of great food.

Writers Notes - DialogueWriters Notes - Dialogue5 years ago in Writing More Like This
Dialogue is the speech between characters. It is when the narrator (you) stops telling the story and the characters speak instead.
Here's some pointers regarding dialogue writing:
Never write dialogue like real-life speech. Why? Because if you listen to real-life speech it is littered with umms and ahhs and errs. Anyone who has ever sat through a meeting or an assembly listening to someone droning on umming and ahhing will know just how frustrating it is. The last thing you want is to inflict that on your reader.
Real life also has moments where you completely forget what you're saying or get side tracked and run off on a tangent or get interrupted. Now all these things can be added to dialogue but in small amounts. We all know someone in life who constantly interrupts us when we talk, they can't wait for your part of the conversation to end so they talk over you. Fine, have a char
Writers Notes - ResearchWriters Notes - Research5 years ago in Writing More Like This
Firstly, my rule any writer worth their salt who WANTS to be published someday has a LARGE collection of reference books in their home or knows intricately the layout of the reference section in their local library.
If you want to be a professional writer, a published writer then you can't skimp on the research. So, unless you were born with a mass of knowledge on hundreds of subjects then you will need to read up on them. Not to mention things change especially in some subjects where improvements and developments replace original knowledge: for example Medicine, police procedures etc.
Do not think your readers are stupid. They are your second biggest critic (after yourself) and even loyal fans will be ready to point out flaws. Try and get passed any anger or frustration you feel if people point out your flaws. Take it as a positive step that they are trying to move your work forward (sometimes).
I read a novel once that described

How Not To Write A Mary Sue
So, what is a Mary Sue? It is used as a form of criticism in literature and refers to an idealised and somewhat "perfect" character that appears to have no flaws or if they do they are so limited that all the "perfect" characteristics overwhelm them making the character "flat." Mary sue often refers to a young female protagonist and male "Mary Sues" are often called "Larry Stu".
From my experience most Mary Sues are written in non-published works usually by young writers especially in fan-fiction. However there are a few Mary Sue writers who are actually published (sadly). It shows a deep lacking to create perfect characters unless it's done for satirical purposes.
So why should you avoid writing Mary Sues? Simple, perfect is boring!
We don't like perfect, we don't want perfect! Ask anyone in a relationship to list the positives traits, charms and idiosyncrasies of their partner and I guarantee at least one will be something that is weird, annoying, bizarre
Writer Notes- Plot DevelopmentWriter Notes- Plot Development5 years ago in Writing More Like This
Whether you are writing a novel or a short story it is best to have your MAIN PLOT before you get too much written down. The Main Plot is the singular thread that runs through the novel/story. You may have character ideas or scene ideas but eventually you need to think about a plot. Do this sooner rather than later.
The best way to do this is to list your main characters and then decide what are their individual main plots. Are they all on the same quest with the same ideas / goals or do some of them have their own goals?
To help show this, here's an example:
Main Characters
Eric To become knighted and serve his king
Vivian To destroy her former master before he can poison the kingdom
Luke To find his brother
Other Detail
Taldor The largest city
Maybe from this list you decide Vivian is the MAIN character and her story line is the driving force however each of the other three have story lines that need to be tol
Writers' Notes - Battles and WarsWriters' Notes - Battles and Wars5 years ago in Writing More Like This
While I have written a tutorial on fight scenes, I felt that it would be prudent to write one regarding wars and battles. After all a war or a battle is not just about how to fight.
When you are writing a war or battle first make sure you plan where it's going to take place. Land can be tricky, and it changes during a battle.
Image two giant armies amassing on a huge field. Infantry and cavalry alike, all decked in battle gear and heavy armour.
The pound of thousands of feet, man and horses alike. How do you think the ground will look? Grass torn and flattened, turned to mud especially if the weather turns and it begins to rain or sleet. Are there hills or mountains? Has one army taken a higher ground, dug a moat or added spikes of wood to protect their area?
Is there forests around them, have the trees been burned by one army to keep the other from using the wooded area as shelter? Has an army begun to p
Writing Notes - Killing charactersWriting Notes - Killing characters4 years ago in Writing More Like This
Many writers state that they are very connected to their characters. This is not surprising, for writers we build worlds, we create people and animals and imbue them with a form of life. We let them live in our heads and think on them often.
Often I have day-dreamed into my written world, sat on a log watching my characters around the campfire swapping stories. I've seen them laughing, passing around skins of bad wine and spiced meats. I've seen them sink into sorrow at those they have lost, those they couldn't save. Whether any of this gets written is a different matter because it is all designed for me to learn more about my characters, so see them react.
We begin to know them intimately, their moods and habits and loves and fears. We can read their facial ticks and subtle body poses. So why wouldn't we become connected?
When you write stories especially long ones were you have a larger amount of time to learn about your characters and allow them to develop they do become something i
Writers' Notes - Fight ScenesWriters' Notes - Fight Scenes5 years ago in Writing More Like This
I have read enough books to find that fighting scenes can be difficult to write. Some of the novels I have read have had painful fighting scenes so this tutorial is an amalgamation of my thoughts on the best ways to do it.
First, let's break this down into aspects to think about:
Before writing fight scenes think about the characters involved. What are their skills, what are their ideas of fighting? Why are they doing so? Is it a sense of survival? Is it to show honour like a duel?
For example -
Does a peaceful man watch his brothers murdered in a slaughter by the king's men. Does he, in a rage, grab a fallen sword and defend the last of them. He holds no skill but the sheer fury at watching his peaceful world be shattered. Afterwards does he vow revenge and ride for the king's castle or retreat to the mountains to get over what he di
Writers Notes - Writers BlockWriters Notes - Writers Block5 years ago in Writing More Like This
Writers Block is one of the worst feelings a writer can experience. Even the best writers will suffer it at some point or another. Point in fact that I myself am suffering writers block in my novel at this moment.
Some writers use it as an excuse to give up and stop writing completely. This happens more when the writers block lasts for a considerable period. It does not just have to be over days, I have known it to be over weeks and even over two months before now.
Writers block can be for many reasons. Often it can be when you are struggling with a key part of your writing / plot and are not making any headway. If this continues and affects the flow of your writing you can find yourself feeling "stunted."
Other writers blocks can be because you have overstretched yourself. Maybe you have been taking too much on or pushing yourself too hard. This is often when the hobby and joy of writing

Fishing for INSPIRATION?
Your imagination is a pond that you fish your ideas from. Like any fishing pond, what you catch depends on what you've stocked your pond with and how much you put in there. If you fish for only the occasional idea, your little ideas have time to breed creatively until they overflow the pond, leaping right out into your hand -- and onto your keyboard. If you fish a lot, you will have to restock -- Frequently.

Writers' Notes - Some BasicsWriters' Notes - Some Basics5 years ago in Writing More Like This
Here are just some basic thoughts for those who wish to be writers.
Novelists can and do break the rules in grammar, however this should not be done in a blasé manner. There is a difference between breaking rules for artistic value and being ignorant of those rules in the first place.
It's a common misconception that if you send in a badly written story that's really good plot/character wise that a publisher will accept it and have the Editor sort out the grammar / spelling. What is more likely, is it will be sent back to you, possibly not even fully read.
The reason for this is that publishers don't want to be doing all the work. You have to show you have a grasp of English and spelling/grammar is important (even if boring). We might all be a little less careful when writing our emails, letters, texts or even tutorials (I blame that on using ubuntu OS and its word processing software has predict
Interior MonologuesInterior Monologues6 years ago in Writing More Like This
"I was just wondering what you think about interior monologues, long passages of reflection?" -- Curious Kitty
A note on:
-- Interior Monologues
Whether you are considering adding a lengthy monologue to a story, or intend the monologue to be the story itself where the focus of the entire story is on one character's thoughts and feelings with very little action -- from my observations and experimentation, the readers either love them or hate them. There's no in-between.
However, it is notable that the internal monologue stories that are sought out most frequently tend to focus on a profound emotion of some kind: grief, loneliness, heartache... Usually by either those seeking to deal with such an emotion, as a kind of therapy, or by those that have never felt such emotions. (Strong emotional stories are extremely popular among young adults.)
In both cases, not only does the reader seek to submerge the

An Unkindness of COMMASAn Unkindness of COMMAS6 years ago in Writing More Like This
I SUCK at commas big-time. I tend to pull a "Mark Twain"; I sprinkle them in wherever to break up the monotony of the sentence. This article is my attempt to hammer the rules into my brain.
An Unkindness of COMMAS
What the heck are Commas for, anyway?
Besides abusing the sanity of the writer, the comma exists to help readers organize information in a sentence. It makes all the stuff the author is trying to say easier to swallow. Without them, sentence bits and pieces collide into one another causing confusion; rather like a train-wreck, though not nearly as exciting.
Just in case you'd like to know who made up all these comma rules, I got most of them from Strunk & White's "Elements of Style" the grammar handbook used by every publishing house in America, and a few overseas. The rest came from my editors.
To get a good idea of how commas work, let's take a look at what they are supposed to do -- and some major

(Grammar Nazis BEWARE!)
Everything I ever learned about writing Fiction DIDN'T come from school; not even college. In fact, the way one writes fiction is almost the complete opposite of everything I learned in school about writing.
In order to make my stories crystal clear in my readers' imaginations, I write in precise Chronological Order, in the order events actually happen, PLUS in the order that the eye sees it.
Case in point, when describing a character, I describe them from top to bottom, in the order that the eye notices them. Face, hair, upper body, arms, hands, then lower body, legs, feet, then over all impression.

High-Speed STORIES
When you absolutely, positively, HAVE to get the story done.
The trick to speed-writing is to Plan the story out first, more commonly known as PLOTTING.
"Diabolic" was written in 30 days -- all 15 chapters at 2500 to 3000 words per chapter, adding up to around 80k (thousand) words. A novel is 90k to 100k. I was able to do this because I already knew my main characters really well, (Vincent and Sephiroth of Final Fantasy VII,) and I knew where my story ENDED. Basically, once I knew where I wanted to go, all I had to do was figure out how to get there.

------Original Message------
I hear the term 'foreshadowing' a lot. That's when you hint at stuff to come, right? So yeah, but how do I DO it?
Foreshadowing is when the opening scene of a story is a kind of nutshell prophecy for the whole story.
* In a Horror, this is when the originating Bad Thing happens.
* In a Mystery or Crime story, it's when the first victim is slain, and/or object (McGuffin) goes missing.
* In a Romance this is where the main character meets their soon-to-be lover for a fleeting but memorable moment.
* In a Sci-fi, this is where the ruling Theory is presented.
* In a Gothic, this is where the main character transforms into a monster for the first time.
This also reveals the Premise, or ruling argument that the story is trying to illustrate; what the story is trying to Prove.
The results of Revenge
The path of Ambition
The reality of Love

A Premise is NOT a Concept!
The Premise is the theoretical / emotional problem that your story is trying to illustrate and answer. It's the glue that holds the whole thing together. It's the Purpose of your story.
A Concept is HOW you intend to illustrate that Premise, it's the story you wrap around it.

His lips drifted across hers in a warm caress. His hand pressed at waist, the heat of his palm warming her flesh through her corset underlying the deep blood silk gown. His fingers drifted upward, toward her breast.
Desire pulsed within her core, in time with her heart. She wanted to let him tear the red silk from her body, and bury himself in her flesh, but set her palm over his to stop him just below her breast. He was a vampire and she, a mere mortal. The fear in her soul told her to stop, and yet her body begged for his mouth on her flesh. I am overcome, overcome by a desire I know only he can satisfy... He fired her blood more than any other man.
She turned away from his kiss. "Please, I can't."

There is a small family of low benches squatting against one wall, as if in the lounge of a forlorn regional airport. You probably don't want to sit there. Mission Burger is fundamentally a takeout operation, but also a made-to-order one.
But one of the virtues of a genuine fatburger is that it travels well. As insurance, the briochy-looking bun is lined with jack cheese, spicy caper mayonnaise, and a slathering of caramelized onions. This combination isn't exactly coherent, but it is tasty. Plus, there are fries, and they are as good as McDonald's fries used to be back in the day when they were fried in beef tallow. For a bit of color: coleslaw made with red cabbage. It's appealingly creamy, although that doesn't do much for the calorie count not that it matters in the shadow of Mount Fatburger.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (SUBMITTED) -- America elects a president next week, but East Tennessee's Tanasi Council Girl Scouts have already made their choice. They picked Republican John McCain.
The republican candidate won a mock election held at the council's October lock-in by a percentage of 64 to 36 percent over Barack Obama. The older a girl, the more likely she was to vote for McCain.
Tanasi Council made the election as realistic as possible, with girls first registering to vote, then coming back several hours later to actually cast their ballots.
Election coordinator Angela Miller said girls were as excited about voting as they were other lock-in activities such as rock climbing and mad science experiments.
"The girls really want to have their voices heard," Miller says. "Girls take great satisfaction in having people care what they think."
Girl Scouts is the world's premier leadership program for girls. More than 65 percent of the nation's elected officials and corporate leaders are former Girl Scouts.
